年卷期:Sudipta Roy received her Ph.D in 2012 from the University of Regensburg under the supervision of Professor Oliver Reiser. Afterward, she worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the Institute of Organic and Biomolecular Chemistry, University of Göttingen on transition metal catalyzed C–H bond activation. Since July, 2014, she has been working as a postdoctoral fellow with Professor Herbert W. Roesky. Her research interests include the synthesis of cyclic alkyl(amino) carbene stabilized highly air and moisture sensitive Si–P compounds and transition metal complexes with their application in catalysis.Kartik Chandra Mondal received his Ph.D in 2011 from Karlsruhe Institute of Technology under the supervision of Professor Annie K. Powell. He moved to University of Göttingen in October 2011. Since then he has been working with Professor Herbert W. Roesky as a postdoctoral fellow. His research interest mainly focuses on the stabilization of low valent low coordinate group 14 elements and transition metal complexes.Herbert W. Roesky obtained his doctorate from University of Göttingen. After working at Du Pont in the United States, he returned to Göttingen and finished his habilitation. Then he became a professor at the Johann-Wolfgang-Goethe-Universität, Frankfurt am Main in 1971. He moved to University of Göttingen in 1980 and was the director of the Institute for Inorganic Chemistry until 2004. He is primarily known for his pioneering work on fluorides of both transition and main group elements. His current research interest is focused on the synthesis and reactivity of compounds with heavier group 13 and 14 elements.
