Continued advances in variant effect prediction are necessary to demonstrate the ability of machine learning methods to accurately determine the clinical impact of variants of unknown significance (VUS). Towards this...

Reactions of 1,2-dimagnesioethane compound [{K(NON)Mg}(μ-CH)] (NON = 4,5-bis(2,4,6-tricyclohexylanilido)-2,7-diethyl-9,9-dimethyl-xanthene), formed by the two-electron reduction of ethene with a dimagnesium/dipotassium complex of reduced N, viz. [{K(NON)Mg}(μ-N)], with CO and CO have been...

Reactions of a m-terphenylhydridostannylene with β-diketiminato magnesium and calcium hydrides provide bis-μ-hydrido species, the heterobimetallic constitutions of which are maintained after the addition of THF donor solvent. In both cases,...

The dimeric calcium and magnesium hydrides, [(BDI)AeH] [BDI=HC{(Me)CNDipp}, Dipp=2,6-i-PrCH; Ae=Mg or Ca] do not react with PhGeH in non-coordinating solvent. Addition of THF, however, induces deprotonation and access to monomeric...

A bulky, unsymmetrical β-diketiminate ligand, [HC{MeCN(Dip)}{MeCN(TCHP)}] (Nacnac; Dip = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl, TCHP = 2,4,6-tricyclohexylphenyl), has been utilised in the preparation of a series of magnesium alkyl and calcium, strontium and barium...

An N-heterocyclic stannylene :Sn(NON) (NON = [O(SiMeNAd)], Ad = 1-adamantyl), reacts rapidly with 2,4,6-tricyclohexylphenyl azide (TCHP)N, affording a stannaimine, (NON)SnN(TCHP). Solutions of (NON)SnN(TCHP) react immediately with carbon dioxide (CO) to...

Reaction of lithium 1,3-diamidopropane Li(NCN) (NCN=[{(Trip)NCH}CH], Trip=2,4,6-triisopropylphenyl) with BeBr(OEt) gave the diamido beryllium complex, [(NCN)Be(OEt)]. Deprotonation reactions between the bulkier 1,3-diaminopropane (NCN)H (NCN=[{(TCHP)NCH}CH], TCHP=2,4,6-tricyclohexylphenyl) and magnesium alkyls afforded the adduct...

In this contribution, we present "Birch-type", and other reductions of simple arenes by the potassium salt of an anionic magnesium dinitrogen complex, [{K(NON)Mg}(μ-N)] (NON=4,5-bis(2,4,6-tricyclohexylanilido)-2,7-diethyl-9,9-dimethyl-xanthene), which acts as a masked dimagnesium(I)...

Numerous industrial processes utilise gaseous chemical feedstocks to produce useful chemical products. Atmospheric and other small molecule gases, including anthropogenic waste products ( carbon dioxide), can be viewed as sustainable...
