Cover Picture: Combinatorial Catalysis with Bimetallic Complexes: Robust and Efficient Catalysts for Atom‐Transfer Radical Additions (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 12/2004)

Abstract

Highly efficient Rh–Ru catalysts for atom‐transfer radical additions have been discovered in a fast screening assay. The catalyst library used in this assay was generated in situ by mixing chloro‐bridged complexes of RuII, RuIII, RuIV, RhI, RhIII, IrI, IrIII, PdII, and PtII with three different RuII–phosphane complexes. On page 1520 ff., K. Severin and co‐workers describe the structures and reactivities of the new catalysts.
