AC Kolloquium - Professor Dr. Sjoerd Harder
Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg - "Alkaline-Earths for Small Molecule Activation"⠀
The alkaline-earth (Ae) metals receive rapidly growing attention as abundant and benign metals for catalysis. Although it is questionable whether they will ever re-place the more precious d-block metals, there is a growing body of evidence for tran-sition metal-like behaviour. This is especially true for the heavier low-valent Ae metal complexes (Ae = Ca, Sr, Ba). Recent contributions to low-valent Ae metal chemistry and activation of small molecules like H2, N2 and CO2 will be presented and the po-tential, but controversial, contribution of d-orbitals will be discussed.
