Experiments have indicated that bulky ligands are required for efficient H2 activation by Pt-Sn complexes. Herein, we unravel the mechanisms for a Pt-Sn complex, Pt(Sn(t)Bu3)2(CN(t)Bu)2 (1a), catalyzed reversible H2 activation. Among a number of Pt-Sn catalysts used to model H2 activation and H2/D2 exchange reactions,…

Observing structural integrity of nanoparticles is essential in bionanotechnology but not always straightforward to measure in situ and in real-time. Fluorescent labels used for tracking intrinsically nonfluorescent nanomaterials generally do not allow simultaneous observation of integrity. Consequently, structural ch…

Understanding nonequilibrium glassy dynamics is of great scientific and technological importance. However, prediction of the temperature, thermal history, and composition dependence of nonequilibrium viscosity is challenging due to the noncrystalline and nonergodic nature of the glassy state. Here, we show that the no…
