Goodes L, Wong E, Alex J, Mofflin L, Toshniwal P, Brunner M, et al.
Syst Rev . 2022 Jul; 11(1):137. PMID: 35790998
Background: Global plastic production has increased exponentially since the 1960s, with more than 6300 million metric tons of plastic waste generated to date. Studies have found a range of human...

Dalton Trans . 2019 Oct; 48(43):16437-16447. PMID: 31651004
The synthesis of a novel Rh(i)-aryl complex is detailed and its ability to serve as an initiator in the stereospecific polymerisation of phenylacetylene evaluated. Targeting the Rh(i) species, (2-phenylnaphthalen-1-yl)rhodium(i)(2,5-norbornadiene)tris(para-fluorophenylphosphine), Rh(nbd)(P(4-FCH))(2-PhNapth),...
