Jordan Pierce's paper on the use of palladium phosphine amine complexes as precatalysts for C-N cross-coupling reactions was published in Organometallics. Ethan Hu and James Howard are also coauthors on this paper.
A collaborative paper involving the Piotr Kaszyński group at the Center for Marcomolecular and Molecular Chemistry, Łódź, Poland, Prof. Michael Sponssler at Syracuse, and the Shaughnessy group was recently published in Organometallics. The paper is entitled, "Decaborate [closo-B10H10]2– as an efficient conduit of electronic effects: Comparative studies of Fe…Fe communication in [{(η5-Cp)(dppe)Fe}2{μ2-(NC-X-CN)}]n+ (n =0,2)." A portion of the experimental work on this project was completed during Kevin Shaughnessy's Fulbright stay in Łódź in spring 2020.
A collaborative paper between the Shaughnessy, Martin Bakker, and Yuping Bao groups at UA has been published in the Journal of Sol-Gel Science and Technology. The paper describes the one-pot synthesis of heirarchically porous carbon containing nickel nanoparticles by incorporation of nickel-salen complexes in the carbon sol-gel synthesis. The resulting nickel-containing materials were effective catalysts for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol.
A paper by Dr. Ethan Hu entitled, "Synthesis, Structural Characterization, and Coordination Chemistry of (Trineopentylphosphine)palladium(aryl)bromide Dimer Complexes ([(Np3P)Pd(Ar)Br]2)," was published in Inorganic Chemistry. Co-authors on the paper are, Monica Vasiliu, Deidra Gerlach, Fengrui Qu, Trent Stein, Dr. David Dixon, and Kevin Shaughnessy. The paper describes the structure of the trineopentylphosphine ligand in [(Np3P)Pd(Ar)Br]2 complexes as a function of the steric demand of the aryl group. The trineopentylphosphine is highly flexible allowing it to accommodate other sterically demanding ligands.
