PMID: 39947524
In hemimetabolous insects, the developmental process of nymphs is divided into three growth phases, i.e., juvenile hormone (JH)-independent, JH-dependent, and JH-free phases. The wing primordium in hemimetabolous insects is formed...

PMID: 39770067
Dihydrogen activation by metallogermylenes was investigated experimentally and theoretically. A neutral NHC-coordinated chlorometallogermylene was synthesized and converted to a cationic base-free metallogermylene of molybdenum via chloride abstraction. The cationic molybdogermylene...
