Article on the reactions of an Ru(II) phenyl complex with substrates that possess C-N or C-O multiple bonds and C-C bond formation, N-H bond cleavage, and decarbonylation reactions.

Article on the activation of water on the TiO2 (110) surface.

This article comments on activity coefficients based on a thermodynamic relationship that failed to properly take into account the solid phase transition that both caffeine and gallic acid exhibited prior to melting.

This article uses the literature data on solubilities and water–solvent partition coefficients to obtain properties or “Absolv descriptors” for zwitterionic α-aminoacids: glycine, α-alanine (α-aminopropanoic acid), α-aminobutanoic acid, norvaline (α-aminopentanoic acid), norleucine (α-aminohexanoic acid), valine (α-amino-3-methylbutanoic acid), leucine (α-amino-4-methylpentanoic acid), and α-phenylalanine.

Article describes how complexes with closed-shell (d10–d10) interactions have been studied for their interesting luminescence properties in organic light-emitting diode (OLED) devices. The present computational study aims at understanding the chemical bonding/interactions in a series of molecules with unusually short metal–metal bond distances between monovalent coinage-metal (d10–d10) centres.
