  Henderson, William; Nicholson, Brian K.; Chung, Dong C. (BLACKWELL MUNKSGAARD, 2002)

  The dimeric palladium(I) saccharinate complex [Pd₂(sac)₂(dppm)₂], has been characterized as its di¬chloro¬methane solvate, i.e. [Pd₂(C₇H₄NO₃S)₂(C₂₅H₂₂P₂)₂]•CH₂Cl₂. The complex features a Pd—Pd bond bridged by two dppm ...

  

• Camphene-derived primary and hydroxymethyl phosphines 

  Berrigan, Rebecca A.; Russell, Douglas K.; Henderson, William; Leach, Meto T.; Nicholson, Brian K.; Woodward, Gary; Harris, Christopher (ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2001-01-01)

  Thermal disproportionation of (2,2-dimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-3-ylmethyl)phosphinic acid (endo-8-camphanylphosphinic acid, camPO₂H₂) yields the primary phosphine (2,2-dimethylbicyclo[2.2.1]hept-3-ylmethyl)phosphine (camPH₂). ...

• Catalytic activity of cycloaurated complexes in the addition of 2-methylfuran to methyl vinyl ketone 

  Kilpin, Kelly Joan; Jarman, Bevan P.; Henderson, William; Nicholson, Brian K. (Wiley, 2011-11)

  Cycloaurated gold(III) complexes derived from cycloaurated iminophosphorane, triphenylphosphine sulfide or selenide, or pyridylsulfonamide ligands have been assessed for their catalytic activity in the addition of 2-methylfuran ...

• The preparation of fluorescent fingerprinting powders using 8-hydroxyquinoline compounds and magnetite 

  O'Shea, Benjamin (The University of Waikato, 2018)

  Fluorescent fingerprinting powders were prepared by using rotary evaporation to coat magnetite powder with varying amounts of either tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato)aluminium (Alq₃), tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato)gallium (Gaq₃), ...

  

• An investigation of beryllium coordination chemistry using electrospray ionisation mass spectrometry 

  Raymond, Onyekachi (The University of Waikato, 2018)

  The electrospray ionisation mass spectrometric behaviour of various complexes of beryllium have been investigated in this thesis. These beryllium complexes were prepared in situ on a small scale by preparing appropriate ...

  

• Applications of Hydroxymethylphosphines 

  Wyllie, Megan Jane (University of Waikato, 2015)

  Hydroxymethylphosphines are compounds containing P-CH₂-OH functional groups. They have numerous applications, of which three types were explored in this project. The cross-linking ability of tris(hydroxymethyl)phosphine ...

  

• Isomerism of Complexes Containing Thiourea Dianion Ligands 

  Spenceley, Jane Estelle (University of Waikato, 2014)

  This thesis reports the synthesis and characterisation of eight new platinum thiourea complexes. Thiourea dianion complexes of the type (Ph₃P)₂PtSC(=NR)NPh, R=Me, Et, Prⁿ, Prⁱ, Buⁿ and (Ph₃P)₂PtSC(=NPh)NR R=Buͭ , p-tol, ...

  

• Synthesis of Platinum Complexes Containing Bidentate N,O-donor Ligands 

  Sim, Sophie Anne (University of Waikato, 2014)

  The reaction of N,O-donor ligands hippuric acid and N-phenylanthranilic acid with [PtCl₂(COD)] (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) in dichloromethane and in the presence of silver(I) oxide yields the complexes [Pt{OC(O)CH₂N(COPh)}(COD)] ...
