Research on metal-arene interactions in dialkylbiarylphosphane complexes from Echavarren's group reaches the cover in Chemistry - A European Journal

The article Metal-Arene Interactions in Dialkylbiarylphosphane Complexes of Copper, Silver and Gold (Chem. Eur. J. 2010, 16, 5324-5332), authored by Patricia Pérez-Galán, Nicolas Delpont, Elena Herrero-Gómez, Feliu Maseras and Antonio M. Echavarren, has been highlighted on the Cover of Chemistry – A European Journal.

The authors report that Au(I) complexes containing dialkylbiphenylphosphane ligands show weak metal-arene interactions with the covering arene ring, and that these contacts are shorter than the limiting values found for isoleptic Ag(I) and Cu(I) complexes. Moreover, they describe dialkylbiphenylphosphane arene-Ag(I) complexes that have the strongest known Ag(I)-arene bonds.
