	abstract = {Early transition metal complexes employing a diamido N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand set (denoted [NCN]) render the centrally disposed NHC moiety stable to dissociation. Aminolysis reactions with the mesityl-substituted ligand precursor ((Mes)[NCN]H-2) and M(NMe2)(4) (M = Zr, Hf) provide bis(amido)-NHC-metal complexes that can be further converted to chloro and alkyl derivatives. Activation of (Mes)[NCN]M(CH3)(2) with [Ph3C][B(C6F5)(4)] yields {(Mes)[NCN]MCH3} {B(C6F5)(4)}, which is surprisingly inactive for the polymerization of 1-hexene. The zirconium cation did, however, show moderate ability to catalytically polymerize ethylene. The hafnium dialkyls are thermally stable with the exception of the diethyl complex, (Mes)[NCN]Hf(CH2CH3)(2), which undergoes P-hydrogen transfer and subsequent C-H bond activation with an ortho-methyl substituent on the mesityl group. The hafnium dialkyl complexes also insert carbon monoxide and substituted isocyanides to yield eta(2)-acyls and eta(2)-iminoacyls, respectively. In some circumstances, further C-C bond coupling occurs to yield enediolates and eneamidolate metallocycles. The molecular structures of (Mes)[NCN]Hf(CH2CHMe2)(2), (Mes)[NCN]Hf(eta(2)-(2,6-Me2C6H3NCCH3)(CH3), (Mes)[NCN]Hf(eta(2)-(2,6-Me2C6H3NCCH3)(2), (Mes)[NCN]Hf(OC(CH3)=C(CH3)NXy), and [(Mes)[NCN]Hf(OC(Bu-i)=C(Bu-i)O)](2) are included.

	abstract = {{Ru(hfac)(3) (2) was synthesized via peroxide oxidation of the Ru(II) species [Na][Ru(hfac)(3)] (1) (hfac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetonate). Treatment of either 1 or 2 with CF3SO3H in MeCN generated cis-Ru(hfac)(2)(MeCN)(2) (3). Ru(acac)(2)(hfac) (4) (acac = acetylacetonate) was generated by addition of hfac to an EtOH solution of cis-[Ru(acac)(2)(MeCN)(2)] [CF3SO3]. Subsequent treatment of 4 with CF3SO3H in MeCN yielded cis-Ru(acac)(hfac)(MeCN)(2) (7). Syntheses of [Na][Ru(hfac)(2)(acac)] (5) and Ru(hfac)(2)(acac) (6) are also reported. The complexes were characterized generally by elemental analysis, cyclic voltammetry, UV-vis, NMR, and IR spectroscopies. The structures of 2,3, and 7 were established by X-ray crystallographic analyses. Crystals of 2 are monoclinic with a = 8.7781(4)},

	abstract = {Previous reference hypernetted-chain theoretical results for electrical double layers using a multipolar solvent with tetrahedral geometry are extended here to a more accurate water model having only C2v symmetry. This model exhibits a net polarization at a flat uncharged surface with the positive end of the dipoles inclined into the fluid; the resulting surface potential is compared with both computer simulation and experimental results for the free surface of liquid water. This model also responds differently to positively and negatively charged surfaces, both with and without electrolyte. This leads to an asymmetry in the differential capacitance of the electrical double layer.},
