A coordinatively unsaturated iron(II)-digermyl complex, Fe[Ge(SiMe3)3]2(THF)2 (1), was synthesized in one step by the reaction of FeBr2 with 2 equiv of KGe(SiMe3)3. Complex 1 shows catalytic activity comparable to that of its silicon analogue in reduction reactions. In addition, 1 acts as an effective precursor for the catalytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane. Catalytically active species can also be generated in situ by simple mixing of the easy-to-handle precursors FeBr2, Ge(SiMe3)4, KOtBu, and phenanthroline.

High-temperature pyrolysis of Ru nanoparticle-encapsulated MOF (Ru@HKUST-1) afforded ultrafine Cu/Ru nanoparticle-embedded porous carbon composites (Cu/Ru@C), which show high catalytic activity for ammonia borane hydrolysis.

<a>Sulfones and sulfonamides with an α-CH bond can be easily alkylated by aliphatic alcohols to add the carbon skeleton of the alcohol via a one-step, Ru(II) catalyzed redox neutral reaction. The reaction requires a sub-stoichiometric amount of base and produces only water as a byproduct. A number of pharmaceutically relevant functional groups such as piperidine, morpholine, etc. are well tolerated under the reaction conditions to give higher value-added products in one step from widely available substrates. The reaction proceeds through a sulfone carbanion addition to an in-situ generated aldehyde formed via catalytic dehydrogenation and subsequent catalyst mediated replacement of the secondary alcohol by hydrogen.</a>

The 0.93Pd/meso-CoO is prepared via in situ reduction of 0.85Pd/meso-Co3O4 derived from KIT-6-templating method. The excellent catalytic activity of 0.93Pd/meso-CoO is related to the formed Pd0 species and good oxygen activation ability.

Heterogeneous catalysis holds distinct advantages over homogeneous catalysis; however, it is only truly advantageous if unaffected by metal ion leaching or in situ formation of a soluble catalytically active species.
