Multimetallic Catalysts Based on Rare Earth Hydride Clusters

新催化剂的发现可以在各个领域取得突破。基于多金属稀土金属配合物，我们首次实现了一氧化碳选择性生成乙烯，端炔与异腈的区域--和立体选择性交叉偶联反应，以及异戊二烯聚合的区域--和立体选择性转换。我们还发现Y_4-Mo五核多氢化物配合物可以以前所未有的方式可逆地吸放氢。

The discovery of new catalysts can result in breakthroughs in various areas. Based on the multimetallic rare earth metal complexes, we have achieved for the first time the selective formation of ethylene from carbon monoxide, the regio^- and stereoselective cross-coupling reaction of terminal alkynes with isocyanides, and regio^- and stereoselectivity switching in isoprene polymerization. We have also found that the Y_4-Mo pentanuclear polyhydride complex can reversibly uptake and release hydrogen in an unprecedented fashion.
