Niobium is not found in nature in its free form, but usually in the form of oxides and usually with the tantalum element. The largest niobium reserves are in Brazil. The use of niobium compounds in organic synthesis has ...

High-purity niobium powders can be obtained from the well-known hydride-dehydride (HDH) process. The aim of this work was the investigation of the structural phase transition of the niobium hydride to niobium metal as ...

The growing interest in, and applications of, niobium compounds in organic synthesis and catalysis are surveyed, with a focus on their efficiency and versatility in several classical and broad organic reaction types. It ...
