Summary: This article focuses on the synthesis and characterization of a series of complexes containing scorpionate ligands based on borates with the 7-azaindole heterocycle, and investigates their coordination chemistry with copper(I) and copper(II). The copper(I) and copper(II) complexes were characterized using spectroscopic and analytical methods, and crystal structures were obtained for eight of the nine complexes. The boron-based ligand in all complexes was found to coordinate to the metal centers via a kappa(3)-N,N,H mode.

Summary: Previously reported carbazole-bis(tetrazole) (CzT(R)) ligands (where R = iPr and CH2-2,4,6-C6H2Me3) were used to synthesize air-stable, six-coordinate, octahedral bis-ligand Fe(II) complexes (CzT(R))(2)Fe. The synthesis and characterization of these complexes using H-1 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), X-ray crystallography, Mossbauer spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations are reported. The magnetic properties of the isopropyl derivative exhibit thermal induced spin crossover (SCO) while the slightly bulkier CH2-2,4,6-C6H2Me3 (CH(2)Mes) Fe complex shows different magnetic behavior with no SCO.

Summary: Pincer complexes, with antimony as a central donor atom, have been explored in recent years. While phenylenediamine derived PXP ligands show diverse reactivity, analogues based on antimony are less commonly reported. The new PSbP complex reported in this study will expand the family of phenylenediamine derived pincer complexes.

Summary: Six centrosymmetric mononuclear Eu3+ and Tb3+ complexes of the type [LnL(2)(hfac)(3)] have been synthesized using different phosphine oxide ligands, displaying bright solid-state photoluminescence. The emission spectra of Eu(iii) complexes strongly depend on the coordination environment of the Eu3+ ion, with asymmetric coordination geometry resulting in large radiative rate constants. Additionally, the crystals of the Eu(iii) and Tb(iii) complexes exhibit triboluminescence upon breaking under ambient conditions.

Summary: This paper describes a strategy to unleash Lewis superacidity by electromerism, where coordinating a Lewis base to Delta-calix[4]pyrrolato-antimony(III) triggers a ligand redox-noninnocent coupled transfer into antimony(V)-state that exhibits Lewis superacidic features. This approach of Lewis acidity by electromerism establishes a concept of potential generality for powerful yet robust reagents and on-site substrate activation approaches.

Summary: In this study, coordination polymers of Ag+ with a cysteine-based thiol ligand containing a tetraphenylethylene AIEgen were investigated. The coordination polymers formed in a variety of protic and aprotic organic solvents, and when the water volume fraction in the H2O/THF binary solvents exceeded 50%, the polymers underwent aggregation, resulting in enhanced emission but reversed CD profile. The dependence of the CD signal on ee remained S-shaped for the polymers in THF and CH3CN, in contrast to that in CH3OH and C2H5OH.

Summary: Two hybrid-type artificial siderophore ligands containing both catecholate and hydroxamate groups were designed and synthesized. Iron(III) complexes of these ligands were prepared and characterized using spectroscopic, potentiometric, and electrochemical methods. The protonation of the complexes at low pH resulted in the release of iron ions and a change in the coordination mode, allowing for precise control of interactions with bacterial membrane receptors. The structural differences between the complexes also played a crucial role in their biological activity against Microbacterium flavescens and Escherichia coli.

Summary: This study presents a strategy to develop eco-friendly asymmetric catalysts using naturally occurring amino acids and earth-abundant metals, resulting in highly active and enantioselective catalysts for hydrosilylation and hydroboration of carbonyl compounds by grafting amino acids within the pores of a metal-organic framework (MOF) and post-synthetic metalation with iron precursor. The MOF-Fe catalyst exhibited high turnover numbers and good recyclability, demonstrating higher activity and enantioselectivity compared to its homogeneous control catalyst due to the formation of robust single-site catalyst in the MOF through site-isolation.

Summary: A new aryl selenonium polyoxometalate hybrid was developed and compared with an aryl sulfonium polyoxometalate hybrid in terms of their photocatalytic properties. It was found that the aryl selenonium hybrid exhibited better catalytic performance, which could be attributed to the larger atomic radii of selenium stabilizing the photogenerated electron-hole pair more efficiently. Additionally, the generation of elemental selenium through cleavage of C-Se bonds during catalysis was observed.
