Summary: The reaction of 2,2'-bis-p-Bu-t-calix[4]arene (H8L) with Cu(NO3) (2)center dot 3H(2)O and N-methyldiethanolamine (MedeaH(2)) in a basic dmf/MeOH mixture results in the formation of [Cu-II (16)(L)(2)(Me-dea)(4)(mu(4)-NO3)(2)(mu-OH)(4)(dmf)(3.5)(MeOH)(0.5)(H2O)(2)] (H6L)center dot 16dmf center dot 4H(2)O (4). The metallic skeleton of the compound consists of a tetracapped square prism, [Cu-12], with Cu-II ions housed in the calix[4]arene polyphenolic pockets. Magnetic measurements show antiferromagnetic exchange interactions and a ground state of S = 1, while EPR indicates a large zero-field splitting.

Summary: This study reports a carbon-centered gold cluster with reversible multi-stimuli responsiveness and reveals the relationship between its photophysical properties and ligand conformation through structural analysis and theoretical calculations. Additionally, the study finds that the gold cluster can emit green light even after losing crystallinity, which is a highly promising model compound for understanding the principles governing stimuli-responsiveness in metal clusters.

Summary: This study presents a novel method to prepare water-dispersible gold nanostructures with near-infrared localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) properties. These nanostructures were synthesized using NADH as a reducing agent and an amphiphilic choline-calix[4]arene derivative (CholCalix) forming micelles as a template. Characterization of the CholCalix-Au nanostructures was performed using UV-visible spectrophotometry, Raman spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. The agglomeration of the nanostructures due to multiple crosslinking interactions was observed and supported by modeling simulation. The CholCalix-AuNPs demonstrated effective anticancer photothermal-induced effect on human breast cancer cells irradiated with biofriendly light at 808 nm.

Summary: This review article aims to highlight recent advances in accessing stable iMICs, quantifying their properties, and exploring their applications in synthesis and catalysis. The synthetic viability and use of vicinal C4,C5-anionic dicarbenes (ADCs) based on a 1,3-imidazole framework are also presented. iMICs and ADCs have the potential to push the limit of classical NHCs by enabling access to conceptually new main-group heterocycles, radicals, molecular catalysts, ligand sets, and more.

Summary: In this study, three stable calix[4]arene (C4A)-functionalized titanium-oxo compounds, Ti-C4A, Ti ( 4 ) -C4A, and Ti ( 16 ) -C4A, were designed and compared as model catalysts for CO2 photoreduction. The multimetallic Ti ( 16 ) -C4A showed significantly higher catalytic activity than the monometallic Ti-C4A, achieving a CO2-to-HCOO- conversion with high selectivity and a rate 12 times higher than that of Ti-C4A. The superior catalytic performance of Ti ( 16 ) -C4A was attributed to the rapid multiple electron-proton transfer process facilitated by synergistic metal-ligand catalysis, reducing the activation energy required for the CO2 reduction reaction.

Summary: We report two pairs of enantiomers of Co(II)and Zn(II)-based metallacycles constructed by coordination-driven self-assembly between homochiral 1,1 '-bi-2-naphthol-derived ligands featuring two kinds of coordination pockets and transition metal ions. Remarkably, they exhibit calix[4]arene-like topological structures and fascinating chiral cavities, having potential in enantioselective recognition.

Summary: Gold(II) complexes have been less utilized in catalysis compared to their gold(I) and gold(III) counterparts. However, gold(II) complexes offer potential in homo-coupling and cross-coupling reactions, as they are more easily accessible through simplified oxidation and reduction processes. Gold(II) exhibits characteristics of both soft acid gold(I) and hard acid gold(III). This review explores the unique reactivity and potential applications of gold(II) species, highlighting their significance in catalytic transformations.

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.

Summary: Na-ion batteries (NIBs) have attracted great interest as a potential technology for grid-scale energy storage due to the wide distribution, low cost, and environmental friendliness of sodium resources. However, their implementation is hindered by low rate capability and cycling stability caused by the large ionic size of Na+. In this study, a three-dimensional nanoarchitectured coral-like CoSe2@N-doped carbon (CL-CoSe2@NC) was synthesized, and it exhibited improved sodium storage properties with better electrode kinetics and a stable SEI film.
