Using the thermally stable salts of [Fe(2)(SR)(2)(CO)(3)(PMe(3))(dppv)]BAr(F)(4), we found that the azadithiolates [Fe(2)(adtR)(CO)(3)(PMe(3))(dppv)](+) react with high pressures of H(2) to give the hydride [Fe(2)(mu-H)(adtR)(CO)(3)(dppv)(PMe(3))]BAr(F)(4). The related oxadithiolate and propanedithiolate complexes are unreactive toward H(2). Molecular hydrogen is proposed to undergo heterolysis assisted by the amine followed by isomerization of an initially formed terminal hydride. Use of H(2) and D(2)O gave the deuteride as well as the hydride, implicating protic intermediates.

Ice plant (Mesembryanthemum crystallinum L.) is a halophyte and an inducible CAM plant. Ice plant seedlings display moderate salt tolerance, with root growth unaffected by 200 mM NaCl treatments, though hypocotyl elongation is hindered in salt-stressed etiolated seedlings.

Amidst the ever-growing interest in high-mass-loading Li battery electrodes, a persistent challenge has been the insufficient continuity of their ion/electron conduction pathways. Here, we propose cellulose elementary fibrils (CEFs) as a class of deagglomerated binder for high-mass-loading electrodes. Derived from natural wood, CEF represents the most fundamental unit of cellulose with nanoscale diameter.

Development of a competent and stable electrocatalyst coupled with photovoltaic system for the generation of green hydrogen, can be a plausible answer to the existing energy crisis. Herein, we have developed Ru doped Ni0.95Se via hydrothermal method as a bifunctional catalyst for overall water splitting coupled with photovoltaic system.

Mononuclear Fe enzymes such as heme-containing cytochrome P450 enzymes catalyze a variety of C-H activation reactions under ambient conditions, and they represent an attractive platform for engineering reactivity through changes to the native enzyme. Using density functional theory, we study both native Fe and non-native group 8 (Ru, Os) and group 9 (Ir) metal centers in an active site model of P450. We quantify how changing the metal changes spin state preferences throughout the catalytic cycle.
