Summary: In this study, a family of Ni(II) halide complexes of substituted aniline derivatives were prepared and characterized using single-crystal X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The complexes exhibit variable stability and show different properties upon the loss of coordinated solvent molecules. Analysis of the magnetic properties reveals the presence of single-ion anisotropy, weak interactions, or a combination of both.

Summary: Nickel based magnetic nanocrystals have wide applications in magnetic and catalytic fields. Tunable magnetic properties of nickel can be achieved through non-magnetic doping or phase transformation. This study presents a way to control the magnetism of Au@Ni-carbide magnetic materials by adjusting the amount of carbon in the Ni layer, and provides solid evidence for the carbonation process from fcc-Ni to Ni X C instead of phase transformation to hcp-Ni. Further investigation reveals that the magnetism of the hybrids is mainly contributed from the residual fcc-Ni.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of the geometric configuration and composition of ABX spinel catalysts on their catalytic mechanisms and polysulfide conversion. The results show that Co-oh (3+) serves as the active site for breaking S-S bonds, while Co-td (2+) functions as the active site for forming S-Na bonds. This research highlights the subtle relationship between the activity and geometric configuration of spinel catalysts, offering insights for the rational development of improved catalysts by optimizing their atomic geometric configuration.

Summary: This study discovered two different types of mixed-valence tetranuclear cobalt complexes through the reaction of the multisite ligand H3L with Co(ClO4)2 center dot 6H2O in the presence of ancillary ligands NaPiv and NH4SCN. The first type of complex achieved connectivity for different numbers of CoIII and CoII ions through water-molecule-derived HO- plus O2- linkers and ligand-anion-based double phenolato bridges, while the second type achieved aggregation through terminal thiocyanate coordination. The structural distortions in these two types of aggregates lead to different magnitudes of easy-axis magnetic anisotropy and a small but non-negligible transverse component.

Summary: Two new hexacoordinated Co(II)-based single-ion magnets were synthesized and characterized. The complexes exhibited metal-centered coordination with nitrate anions and a 2,6-bis(1H-benzimidazole-2-yl)pyridine ligand with n-octyl or n-dodecyl chains. The presence of long aliphatic chains allowed for their solubility in low polarity and volatile solvents, enabling the preparation of microstructural layers and patterns on relevant substrates using wet lithographic techniques. The complexes displayed positive axial D parameters and showed field-induced slow relaxation of magnetization.

These complexes exhibit distorted pseudo-octahedral geometry for the Ni-II center and distorted bicapped square-antiprism geometry for the Ln(III) centers. The study highlights the mutual distortion of coordination geometry induced by the flexibility of the ligand backbone and the simultaneous binding of two different metal ions.

Summary: Six new Ni-II complexes with different N3O donor Schiff base ligands have been synthesized and characterized, showing ferromagnetic interaction through bridging pseudohalides. The cyanate-bridged complexes have lower ferromagnetic coupling constant J compared to azide analogues due to the presence of polarizable p systems and two different N and O donor atoms. The inclusion of these new complexes in the series of mu(1,1)-NCO bridged systems allows for a detailed analysis of the magneto-structural correlation, revealing that the J value increases with an increase in bridging angles and is also influenced by the Ni1-Ni2-N-b-X-t dihedral angle.

Additionally, the study explores the electrical properties of these compounds on graphene and demonstrates electron transfer-induced n-type doping of graphene.

Summary: This work presents studies on the photochemical transformations of TU and Cys with the addition of Cu(II) or Fe(III) ions. The results show that the oxidation rate of the thiols increases significantly when Cu(II) or Fe(III) ions are added to the system. It has also been found that TU and Cys can form stable complex compounds with the studied metal ions. The oxidation rates of the thiols are found to depend on the radiation intensity and emission spectrum of the irradiation sources.

Summary: The structure and electrochemical properties of zinc(II) complexes with a face-capping ligand have been investigated, revealing the effect of the ligand on bound semiquinonate (SQ) radicals. The substitution pattern of the SQ ring plays a crucial role in determining the fate of the bound SQ radicals. Additionally, the protective pocket formed by the ligand's phenyl substituents is unable to prevent decomposition of SQ radicals with minimal steric bulk, suggesting that substitution of the SQ ring is the main contributor to their stabilization.

Summary: In this article, the synthesis and characterization of copper, nickel, and palladium complexes bound by bidentate ligands derived from ortho-phenylenediamine are described. The complexes contain tunable H-bond donors and their crystal structures reveal intramolecular H-bonding interactions between the ligand scaffolds. Variations in the coordination sphere led to the isolation of the complexes in square-planar or twisted pseudo-tetrahedral geometries. Structural analysis showed that intramolecular H-bonding interactions can be altered by disrupting the bonds between countercations, solvent of crystallization, and ligand scaffold, resulting in changes in the geometry of the complexes. DFT calculations confirmed that Cu complexes prefer twisted geometries while Ni and Pd complexes favor square-planar geometries.
