Cover Feature: Accessing the First nido‐Carborane‐Substituted Diphosphetane: A Ligand and Synthon for nido‐Carboranylphosphanes (Chem. Eur. J. 49/2019)
Abstract:nido‐Carboranes are valuable backbones for the development of phosphorus‐based ligands. The cover, designed by Dr. Christoph Selg (Leipzig University), shows a highlight of the present study: Cu2I2 units bridged by the first nido‐carborane‐substituted diphosphetane, as symbolised by the crabs, forming a one‐dimensional coordination polymer. The diphosphetane is also suitable for functionalization to unprecedented nido‐carborane‐based P,N ligands. More information can be found in the Full Paper by E. Hey‐Hawkin… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
