Summary: Oxidative addition is a fundamental reaction in organometallic chemistry and catalysis, but examples of P-O bond activation are rare. In this study, we report the ligand-templated oxidative addition of a phosphinite P-O bond in a diphosphinito aniline compound, resulting in the formation of a (PONO)Ni((HPPr2)-Pr-i) complex after proton rearrangement. Notably, the P-O bond cleavage occurs selectively over an amine N-H bond activation. Furthermore, the ligand cannibalization is reversible, as various XPR2 reagents can readily produce different (P2ONO)NiX complexes and free HPiPr(2).

Summary: Novel complexes of (NHC)Au(SCOR) were synthesised and characterised using spectroscopic techniques and X-ray diffraction. The results indicated that thiocarboxylate ligands have comparable electron donor ability with NHCs. The complexes were stable at room temperature in solid state but showed disproportionation reactions in solution. The thiocarboxylate ligand in (NHC)Au(SCOR) underwent rapid exchange with other thiocarboxylate or thiolate ligands. Furthermore, these complexes exhibited toxicity against cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells.

Summary: This study aimed to develop a drug-delivery system based on a porous polymer hydrogel with antimicrobial properties against Porphyromonas gingivalis and potential use in tissue regeneration. The hydrogels containing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and/or chlorhexidine (CHX) showed successful delivery and sustained release of the antimicrobial agents. The hydrogels with AgNPs or CHX exhibited significant antimicrobial effects against P. gingivalis, with the CHX-hydrogels showing a stronger effect. The dual-cured pHEMA hydrogel loaded with antimicrobial agents proved to be an efficient drug-delivery system against periodontopathogens and has the potential to be used as a scaffold for tissue regeneration.

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.
