A research team recently discovered the first organometallic molecule — coined “berkelocene” — containing the heavy element berkelium at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, or Berkeley Lab. An ...
Figure 1: Synthetic strategies to access secondary and tertiary alcohols by carbonyl addition reactions. Despite considerable advances, and the abundance of organometallic reagents developed for ...
For over a century, the well-known 18-electron rule has guided the field of organometallic chemistry. Now, researchers at Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) have successfully ...
