Summary: The chemistry of multinuclear metal complexes supported by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands, especially those supported by mesoionic (MIC) 1,2,3-triazolylidenes, has attracted significant attention due to their postulated superior donor capacity compared to classical NHC ligands. Despite the availability of synthetic routes for MIC-based ligands with various substitution levels, the coordination chemistry of triazolylidenes is still mainly dominated by mononuclear complexes. Recent progress on the design and synthesis of multinuclear triazolylidene complexes, ranging from di- to tetranuclear species, is discussed with emphasis on their structural features, electronic properties, and catalytic applications.

Summary: A nickel(II) cyanomethyl complex with a tridentate bulky mesoionic carbene ligand was synthesized by reacting nickel(II) chloride with K3PO4 in acetonitrile. It was found that a nickel(II) hydroxo complex is an intermediate in the formation of the cyanomethyl complex from both the compounds. Theoretical studies revealed a new mechanism for the formation of the cyanomethyl group.

Summary: Extensive electrochemical investigations on 1,2,3-triazolylidene selenium adducts revealed a correlation between their reduction potentials and molecular structures. Unexpected quasi-reversibility was discovered in the reduction of two triazoline selones. Through spectroelectrochemical studies and calculations, the radical anion was successfully assigned to be triazoline centered, providing design principles for stabilizing radicals based on MICs.

Summary: In this study, the RuAAC polymerization of t-butyl 4-azido-5-hexynoate (tBuAH) was investigated, which produced a dimer with a 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazole moiety. The polymerization of tBuAH using Ru(II) catalysts resulted in the formation of oligomers with 1,5-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazole units and 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazole units. The oligomer samples contained a substantial amount of Ru(II) catalysts. Rating: 7/10

Summary: Systematic investigation of the reactions between cis-[M(dppm)(2)Cl-2] (M=Ru/Os; dppm=1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) and pyridine/quinoline substituted homopropargylic alcohols revealed diverse Ru(II)/Os(II)-induced alkyne activation pathways. At lower temperatures, alkynes cyclized on M via a non-vinylidene pathway, forming alkenyl intermediates that further metallacyclized to give metallapyrroloindolizines. Conversely, at higher temperatures, alkyne cyclization on M occurred via a vinylidene pathway, resulting in cyclic oxacarbene complexes. A rare decyclization mechanism was observed during the transformation of a metallacyclization-resistant alkenyl complex into a cyclic oxacarbene complex. DFT calculations confirmed the experimental findings. Overall, these results provide insights into controlling alkyne activation pathways and offer new strategies for preparing metalated heterocyclic and metallacyclic complexes.

Summary: Tailored ruthenium sandwich complexes with photoresponsive arene ligands efficiently catalyze azide-thioalkyne cycloaddition under UV light. These reactions are bioorthogonal in aqueous mixtures with biological components and can selectively modify biopolymers like DNA or peptides. This ruthenium-based technology is compatible and mutually orthogonal with the standard copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition.

Summary: We synthesized a new pyrene-dipicolinic acid-based ligand (L1H) and its corresponding multi-emissive and multifunctional europium complex [Eu(L-1)(3)], which exhibits single component color switchable emission from red to blue, and even white. At high concentration (10 mM), the single component system emits near pure white light (CIE coordinates x, y = 0.329, 0.324). Moreover, the system shows ratiometric oxygen sensing, with oxygen significantly quenching the pyrene-centered emission but not the Eu3+ emission, resulting in an overall emission color change from blue to red with increasing oxygen content.

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.
