“…75 And in 2023 nickel(II) complexes of tripodal ligands could fixate at atmospheric CO 2 pressure, and the best catalyst was fully characterized by steric maps. 76 Another solution by means of calculations was the reduction of the kinetic cost defined by the rate determining step (rds) by means of finding out alternative catalytic systems with several examples, monitoring the substituents on the phosphine to achieve milder conditions in a palladium-catalysed benzosilole formation from aryloxyethynyl silanes and towards milder conditions by predictive catalysis via steric hindrance in the pincer-Ru-catalysed hydrogenation of thioesters. 77 On the other hand, in some cases, the proposed modifications turned out to be almost sterile, for example the modification of a pincer ligand bound to ruthenium for N 2 O fixation.…”
