Open-Shell First-Row Transition-Metal Polyhydride Complexes Based on the fac-[RuH3(PR3)3]~- Building Block

摘要

Although hydride, H~-, is the simplest conceivable ligand. transition-metal hydride complexes continue to fascinate synthetic and theoretical chemists owing to their intriguing structures, unusual reactivities, and diverse bonding patterns. Metal hydrides are implicated in a plethora of catalytic processes, such as hydrogenation, hydroformylation, and isomerization reactions.
