Abstract
The isomerization of 1,1-disubstituted alkenes through 1,3-hydrogen shift is an atom-efficient route for synthesizing trisubstituted alkenes, which are important moieties in many natural products, pharmaceuticals, and organic materials. However, this reaction often encounters regio- and stereoselectivity challenges, typically yielding E/Z-mixtures of the alkene products or thermodynamically favored (E)-alkenes. Herein, we report the (Z)-selective isomerization of 1,1-disubstituted alkenes to trisubstituted (Z)-alkenes via the regio- and stereospecific activation of an allylic C-H bond. The key to the success of this unprecedented transformation is the use of a sterically demanding half-sandwich scandium catalyst in combination with a bulky quinoline compound, 2-tert-butylquinoline. Deuterium-labeling experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations have revealed that 2-tert-butylquinoline not only facilitates the C═C bond transposition through hydrogen shuttling but also governs the regio- and stereoselectivity due to the steric hindrance of the tert-butyl group. This protocol enables the synthesis of diverse (Z)-configured acyclic trisubstituted alkenes and endocyclic trisubstituted alkenes from readily accessible 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. It offers an efficient and selective route for preparing a new family of synthetically challenging (Z)-trisubstituted alkenes with broad substrate scope, 100% atom efficiency, high regio- and stereoselectivity, and an unprecedented reaction mechanism.

Abstract
Low-valent cobalt complexes can promote intramolecular (3 + 2) cycloadditions of alkyne-tethered cyclopropenes to provide bicyclic systems containing highly substituted cyclopentadienyl moieties with electronically diverse functional groups. The adducts can be easily transformed into new types of CpRh(III) and CpIr(III) complexes, which show catalytic activity in several relevant transformations. Preliminary computational (DFT) and experimental studies provide relevant information on the mechanistic peculiarities of the cobalt-catalyzed process and allow us to rationalize its advantages over the homologous rhodium-promoted reaction.

Abstract
The nuanced role of spin effects remains a critical gap in designing proficient open-shell catalysts. This study elucidates an iron-catalyzed allylic C(sp3)-H silylation/alkyne hydrosilylation reaction, in which the spin state of the open-shell iron catalyst dictates the reaction kinetics and pathway. Specifically, spin crossover led to alkyne hydrosilylation, whereas spin conservation resulted in a novel allylic C(sp3)-H silylation reaction. This chemoselectivity, governed by the spin-crossover efficiency, reveals an unexpected dimension in spin effects and a first in the realm of transition-metal-catalyzed in situ silylation of allylic C(sp3)-H bonds, which had been previously inhibited by the heightened reactivity of alkenes in hydrosilylation reactions. Furthermore, this spin crossover can either accelerate or hinder the reaction at different stages within a single catalytic reaction, a phenomenon scarcely documented. Moreover, we identify a substrate-assisted C-H activation mechanism, a departure from known ligand-assisted processes, offering a fresh perspective on C-H activation strategies.

Abstract
Photocatalytic technology can efficiently convert solar energy to chemical energy and this process is considered as one of the green and sustainable technology for practical implementation. In recent years, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted widespread attention due to their unique advantages and have been widely applied in the field of photocatalysis. Among them, noble metals have contributed significant advances to the field as effective catalysts in photocatalytic reactions. Importantly, noble metals can also form a synergistic catalytic effect with MOFs to further improve the efficiency of photocatalytic reactions. However, how to precisely control the synergistic effect between MOFs and noble metals to improve the photocatalytic performance of materials still needs to be further studied. In this review, the synergistic effects of MOFs and noble metal catalysts in photocatalytic reactions are firstly summarized in terms of noble metal nanoparticles, noble metal monoatoms, noble metal compounds, and noble metal complexes, and focus on the mechanisms and advantages of these synergistic effects, so as to provide useful guidance for the further research and application of MOFs and contribute to the development of the field of photocatalysis.

Enantioselective synthesis of chiral α,α-dialkyl indoles and related azoles by cobalt-catalyzed hydroalkylation and regioselectivity switch. Nat Commun 2024; 15:3783.

Abstract
General, catalytic and enantioselective construction of chiral α,α-dialkyl indoles represents an important yet challenging objective to be developed. Herein we describe a cobalt catalyzed enantioselective anti-Markovnikov alkene hydroalkylation via the remote stereocontrol for the synthesis of α,α-dialkyl indoles and other N-heterocycles. This asymmetric C(sp3)-C(sp3) coupling features high flexibility in introducing a diverse set of alkyl groups at the α-position of chiral N-heterocycles. The utility of this methodology has been demonstrated by late-stage functionalization of drug molecules, asymmetric synthesis of bioactive molecules, natural products and functional materials, and identification of a class of molecules exhibiting anti-apoptosis activities in UVB-irradiated HaCaT cells. Ligands play a vital role in controlling the reaction regioselectivity. Changing the ligand from bi-dentate L6 to tridentate L12 enables CoH-catalyzed Markovnikov hydroalkylation. Mechanistic studies disclose that the anti-Markovnikov hydroalkylation involves a migratory insertion process while the Markovnikov hydroalkylation involves a MHAT process.

Abstract
We detail the relative role of ancillary ligand electron-donating ability in comparison to the locus of oxidation (either metal or ligand) on the electrophilic reactivity of a series of oxidized Mn salen nitride complexes. The electron-donating ability of the ancillary salen ligand was tuned via the para-phenolate substituent (R = CF3, H, tBu, OiPr, NMe2, NEt2) in order to have minimal effect on the geometry at the metal center. Through a suite of experimental (electrochemistry, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, UV-vis-NIR spectroscopy) and theoretical (density functional theory) techniques, we have demonstrated that metal-based oxidation to [MnVI(SalR)N]+ occurs for R = CF3, H, tBu, OiPr, while ligand radical formation to [MnV(SalR)N]+˙ occurs with the more electron-donating substituents R = NMe2, NEt2. We next investigated the reactivity of the electrophilic nitride with triarylphosphines to form a MnIV phosphoraneiminato adduct and determined that the rate of reaction decreases as the electron-donating ability of the salen para-phenolate substituent is increased. Using a Hammett plot, we find a break in the Hammett relation between R = OiPr and R = NMe2, without a change in mechanism, consistent with the locus of oxidation exhibiting a dominant effect on nitride reactivity, and not the overall donating ability of the ancillary salen ligand. This work differentiates between the subtle and interconnected effects of ancillary ligand electron-donating ability, and locus of oxidation, on electrophilic nitride reactivity.

Abstract
The electronic structures and spectroscopic behavior of three high-spin FeII complexes of fluorinated alkoxides were studied: square-planar {K(DME)2}2[Fe(pinF)2] (S) and quasi square-planar {K(C222)}2[Fe(pinF)2] (S') and trigonal-planar {K(18C6)}[Fe(OC4F9)3] (T) where pinF = perfluoropinacolate and OC4F9 = tris-perfluoro-t-butoxide. The zero-field splitting (ZFS) and hyperfine structure parameters of the S = 2 ground states were determined using field-dependent 57Fe Mössbauer and high-field and -frequency electron paramagnetic resonance (HFEPR) spectroscopies. The spin Hamiltonian parameters were analyzed with crystal field theory and corroborated by density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) calculations. Whereas the ZFS tensor of S has a small rhombicity, E/D = 0.082, and a positive D = 15.17 cm-1, T exhibits a negative D = -9.16 cm-1 and a large rhombicity, E/D = 0.246. Computational investigation of the structural factors suggests that the ground-state electronic configuration and geometry of T's Fe site are determined by the interaction of [Fe(OC4F9)3]- with {K(18C6)}+. In contrast, two distinct countercations of S/S' have a negligible influence on their [Fe(pinF)2]2- moieties. Instead, the distortions in S' are likely induced by the chelate ring conformation change from δλ, observed for S, to the δδ conformation, determined for S'.

Abstract
Iron catalysts are ideal transition metal catalysts because of the Earths abundant, cheap, biocompatible features of iron salts. Iron catalysts often have unique open-shell structures that easily undergo spin crossover in chemical transformations, a feature rarely found in noble metal catalysts. Unfortunately, little is known currently about how the open-shell structure and spin crossover affect the reactivity and selectivity of iron catalysts, which makes the development of iron catalysts a low efficient trial-and-error program. In this paper, a combination of experiments and theoretical calculations revealed that the iron-catalyzed hydrosilylation of alkynes is typical spin-crossover catalysis. Deep insight into the electronic structures of a set of well-defined open-shell active formal Fe(0) catalysts revealed that the spin-delocalization between the iron center and the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand effectively regulates the iron center's spin and oxidation state to meet the opposite electrostatic requirements of oxidative addition and reductive elimination, respectively, and the spin crossover is essential for this electron transfer process. The triplet transition state was essential for achieving high regioselectivity through tuning the nonbonding interactions. These findings provide an important reference for understanding the effect of catalyst spin state on reaction. It is inspiring for the development of iron catalysts and other Earth-abundant metal catalysts, especially from the point of view of ligand development.

Abstract
Seven-coordinate rhenium oxo complexes supported by a tetradentate bipyridine carboxamide/carboxamidate ligand are reported. The neutral dicarboxamide H2Phbpy-da ligand initially coordinates in an L4 (ONNO) fashion to an octahedral rhenium oxo precursor, yielding a seven-coordinate rhenium oxo complex. Subsequent deprotonation generates a new oxo complex featuring the dianionic (L2X2) carboxamidate (NNNN) form of the ligand. Computational studies provide insight into the relative stability of possible linkage isomers upon deprotonation. Structural studies and molecular orbital theory are employed to rationalize the relative isomer stability and provide insight into the rhenium-oxo bond order.

Abstract
The exploration for noble metals substitutes in catalysis has become a highly active area of research, driven by the pursuit of sustainable chemical processes. Although the utilization of base metals holds great potential as an alternative, their successful implementation in predictable catalytic processes necessitates the development of appropriate ligands. Such ligands must be capable of controlling their intricate redox chemistry and promote two-electron events, thus mimicking well-established organometallic processes in noble metal catalysis. While numerous approaches for infusing nobility to base metals have been explored, metal-ligand cooperation has garnered significant attention in recent years. Within this context, aluminium-based ligands offer interesting features to fine-tune the activity of metal centres, but their application in base metal catalysis remains largely unexplored. This perspective seeks to highlight the most recent breakthroughs in the reactivity of heterobimetallic aluminium-base-metal complexes, while also showcasing their potential to develop novel and predictable catalytic transformations. By turning the spotlight on such heterobimetallic species, we aim to inspire chemists to explore aluminium-base-metal species and expand the range of their applications as catalysts.

Abstract
[HCo(CO)x(bisphosphine)](BF4), x = 1-3, is a highly active hydroformylation catalyst system, especially for internal branched alkenes. In situ infrared spectroscopy (IR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and nuclear magnetic resonance studies support the proposed catalyst formulation. IR studies reveal the formation of a dicationic Co(I) paramagnetic CO-bridged dimer, [Co2(μ-CO)2(CO)(bisphosphine)2]2+, at lower temperatures formed from the reaction of two catalyst complexes via the elimination of H2. DFT studies indicate a dimer structure with square-pyramidal and tetrahedral cobalt centers. This monomer-dimer equilibrium is analogous to that seen for HCo(CO)4, reacting to eliminate H2 and form Co2(CO)8. EPR studies on the catalyst show a high-spin (S = 3/2) Co(II) complex. Reaction studies are presented that support the cationic Co(II) bisphosphine catalyst as the catalyst species present in this system and minimize the possible role of neutral Co(I) species, HCo(CO)4 or HCo(CO)3(phosphine), as catalysts.

Abstract
To obtain a magnetically separable, low-cost and highly efficient reduction catalyst, microbial carbon-loaded bimetallic palladium/iron nanoparticles (MC-FePd3NPs) were synthesized in this study by using waste yeast residue doped with iron during the preparation process of microbial carbon-loaded monometallic palladium nanoparticles (MC-Pd NPs). The morphology, crystal structure, magnetic properties and catalytic performance of MC-FePd3NPs for the reduction ofp-nitrophenol (p-NP) were investigated by various characterization techniques, such as SEM-EDS, TEM, XRD, PPMS-9 and UV-vis spectroscopy. The catalytic experiments showed that the MC-FePd3NPs prepared under pyrolysis conditions at 700 °C had an apparent rate constant of 1.85 × 10-1s-1which is better than the rate constants of MC-Pd NPs and other palladium-based nanocatalytic materials reported so far. The amount of palladium used in the synthesis of MC-FePd3NPs was half that of MC-Pd NPs. The catalyst exhibited soft magnetic ordering behavior and still showed a catalytic efficiency of 97.4% after five consecutive reaction cycles. Furthermore, employing MC-FePd3NPs reduces the costs of catalyst preparation and use in production. MC-FePd3NPs with efficient catalytic properties, facile magnetic separation and recyclability, and low costs of preparation and use have considerable potential for industrial applications.

Abstract
Two homoleptic Fe(II) complexes in different spin states bearing superbasic terpyridine derivatives as ligands are investigated to determine the relationship between spin state and electrochemical/spectroscopic behavior. Antiferromagnetic coupling between a ligand-centered radical and the high-spin metal center leads to an anodic shift of the first reduction potential and results in a species that shows mixed valency with a moderately intense intervalence-charge-transfer band. The differences afforded by the different spin states extend to the electrochemical reactivity of the complexes: while the low-spin species is a precatalyst for electrocatalytic CO2 reduction and leads to the preferential formation of CO with a Faradaic efficiency of 37%, the high-spin species only catalyzes proton reduction at a modest Faradaic efficiency of approximately 20%.

Abstract
A catalytic system for intramolecular C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H amination of substituted tetrazolopyridines has been successfully developed. The amination reactions are developed using an iron-porphyrin based catalytic system. It has been demonstrated that the same iron-porphyrin based catalytic system efficiently activates both the C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H bonds of the tetrazole as well as azide-featuring substrates with a high level of regioselectivity. The method exhibited an excellent functional group tolerance. The method affords three different classes of high-value N-heterocyclic scaffolds. A number of important late-stage C-H aminations have been performed to access important classes of molecules. Detailed studies (experimental and computational) showed that both the C(sp2)-H and C(sp3)-H amination reactions involve a metalloradical activation mechanism, which is different from the previously reported electro-cyclization mechanism. Collectively, this study reports the discovery of a new class of metalloradical activation modes using a base metal catalyst that should find wide application in the context of medicinal chemistry, drug discovery and industrial applications.

Abstract
Efficient activation and functionalization of the C-H bond under mild conditions are of a great interest in chemical synthesis. We investigate the previously proposed spin-accelerated activation of the C(sp2)-H bond by a Fe(II)-based catalyst to clarify the role of the intermediate triplet state in the reaction mechanism. High-level electronic structure calculations on a small model of a catalytic system utilizing the coupled cluster with the single, double, and perturbative triple excitations [CCSD(T)] are used to select the density functional for the full-size model. Our analysis indicates that the previously proposed two-state quintet-singlet reaction pathway is unlikely to be efficient due to a very weak spin-orbit coupling between these two spin states. We propose a more favorable multi-state quintet-triplet-singlet reaction pathway and discuss the importance of the intermediate triplet state. This triplet state facilitates a spin-accelerated reaction mechanism by strongly coupling to both quintet and singlet states. Our calculations show that the C-H bond activation through the proposed quintet-triplet-singlet reaction pathway is more thermodynamically favorable than the single-state quintet and two-state singlet-quintet mechanisms.

Abstract
Covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs), served as a versatile platform, can form expedient metal-N single-atom coordination sites as promising catalytic centers. To seek out excellent candidate catalysts of M/CTFs (M = Transition metal) for nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR), a "five-step" strategy involving spin states has been established for hierarchical high-throughput screening and reveals strong coordination ability of the CTFs, outstanding conductivity of the M/CTFs, effective adsorption and activation of N2* attributed to the electron transfer and orbital hybridization between the M/CTFs and N2*. Among the potential candidates, the Cr/CTF is screened out to be an excellent one for nitrogen fixation, which can not only inhibit hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) greatly but also has good thermodynamic stability (Eb = -4.40 eV), narrow band gap (Eg = 0.03 eV), moderate adsorption energy (Ea = -0.84 eV), large activation energy (ΔGN2* = -0.71 eV) and a theoretical Faradaic efficiency of 100%. The spin state has been confirmed to be an important descriptor of catalytic activity and the two-state reactivity (TSR) is validated to exist in the NRR. Reaction mechanism with different spin states of Cr/CTF has been demonstrated to give a great impact on the nitrogen fixation, providing solid theoretical support for the design of more efficient NRR catalysts.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reduction (OER) are regarded as the key reactions via the sustainable system (fuel cell and water splitting), respectively. In OER, the transition from singlet oxygen species to triplet oxygen molecules is involved, meanwhile the ORR involves the transition from triplet oxygen molecules to singlet oxygen species. However, in these processes, the number of unpaired electrons is not conserved, which is not thermodynamically favorable and creates an additional energy barrier. Fortunately, regulating the electrocatalysis by spin-state modulation enables a unique effect on the catalytic performance, but the current understanding on spin-state engineering for electro-catalyzing ORR and OER is still insufficient. Herein, this review summarized the in-spin engineering for the state-of-the-art ORR and OER electrocatalysts. It began by introducing engineering of spin-state to egfilling for ORR and OER process, and then moved to spin polarization and spin-pinning effect for OER process. Various designed strategies focusing on how to regulate the spin-state of the active center have been summarized up. The connectivity of the structures of typical ORR (e.g. metal-nitrogen-carbon) and OER (e.g. design strategies oxides, metal organic frameworks) catalysts depending on the spin level is also discussed. Finally, we present the outlook from the aspects of template catalysts, characterization methods, regulation strategies, theoretical calculations, which will further expand the possibility of better electrocatalytic performance through spin-state modulation. This review concluded some open suggestions and prospects, which are worthy of the community's future work.

Abstract
Oxidation of a series of CrV nitride salen complexes (CrVNSalR) with different para-phenolate substituents (R = CF3, tBu, NMe2) was investigated to determine how the locus of oxidation (either metal or ligand) dictates reactivity at the nitride. Para-phenolate substituents were chosen to provide maximum variation in the electron-donating ability of the tetradentate ligand at a site remote from the metal coordination sphere. We show that one-electron oxidation affords CrVI nitrides ([CrVINSalR]+; R = CF3, tBu) and a localized CrV nitride phenoxyl radical for the more electron-donating NMe2 substituent ([CrVNSalNMe2]•+). The facile nitride homocoupling observed for the MnVI analogues was significantly attenuated for the CrVI complexes due to a smaller increase in nitride character in the M≡N π* orbitals for Cr relative to Mn. Upon oxidation, both the calculated nitride natural population analysis (NPA) charge and energy of molecular orbitals associated with the {Cr≡N} unit change to a lesser extent for the CrV ligand radical derivative ([CrVNSalNMe2]•+) in comparison to the CrVI derivatives ([CrVINSalR]+; R = CF3, tBu). As a result, [CrVNSalNMe2]•+ reacts with B(C6F5)3, thus exhibiting similar nucleophilic reactivity to the neutral CrV nitride derivatives. In contrast, the CrVI derivatives ([CrVINSalR]+; R = CF3, tBu) act as electrophiles, displaying facile reactivity with PPh3 and no reaction with B(C6F5)3. Thus, while oxidation to the ligand radical does not change the reactivity profile, metal-based oxidation to CrVI results in umpolung, a switch from nucleophilic to electrophilic reactivity at the terminal nitride.

Abstract
A remote C(sp3 )-H bond asymmetric borylation of unactivated alkenes was achieved by bimetallic relay catalysis. The reaction proceeded through reversible and consecutive β-H elimination/olefin insertion promoted by CoH species generated in situ, followed by copper-catalyzed asymmetric protoboration. The use of this synergistic Co/Cu catalysis protocol allowed the enantioselective protoboration of various unactivated terminal alkenes and internal alkenes, as well as an unrefined mixture of olefin isomers, at the distal less-reactive β-position to a functional group, leading to chiral organoboronates.

Abstract
The reactions of transition metal complexes underpin numerous synthetic processes and catalytic transformations. Typically, this reactivity involves the participation of empty and filled molecular orbitals centered on the transition metal. Kinetically stabilized species, such as octahedral low-spin d6 transition metal complexes, are not expected to participate directly in these reactions. However, novel approaches that exploit metal-ligand cooperativity offer an opportunity to challenge these preconceptions. Here, we show that inclusion of an aluminum-based ligand into the coordination sphere of neutral low-spin d6 iron complex leads to unexpected reactivity. Complexes featuring an unsupported Fe-Al bond are capable of the intermolecular C-H bond activation of pyridines. Mechanistic analysis suggests that C-H activation proceeds through a reductive deprotonation in which the two metal centers (Fe and Al) act like a frustrated Lewis pair. The key to this behavior is a ground state destabilization of the d6 iron complex, brought about by the inclusion of the electropositive aluminum-based ligand. These findings have immediate implications for the design of reagents and catalysts based on first-row transition metals.

Abstract
The merging of photoredox and nickel catalysis has revolutionized the field of C-C cross-coupling. However, in comparison to the development of synthetic methods, detailed mechanistic investigations of these catalytic systems are lagging. To improve the mechanistic understanding, computational tools have emerged as powerful tools to elucidate the factors controlling reactivity and selectivity in these complex catalytic transformations. Based on the reported computational studies, it appears that the mechanistic picture of catalytic systems is not generally applicable, but is rather dependent on the specific choice of substrate, ligands, photocatalysts, etc. Given the complexity of these systems, the need for more accurate computational methods, readily available and user-friendly dynamics simulation tools, and data-driven approaches is clear in order to understand at the molecular level the mechanisms of these transformations. In particular, we anticipate that such improvement of theoretical methods will become crucial to advance the understanding of excited-state properties and dynamics of key species, as well as to enable faster and unbiased exploration of reaction pathways. Further, with greater collaboration between computational, experimental, and spectroscopic communities, the mechanistic investigation of photoredox/Ni dual-catalytic reactions is expected to thrive quickly, facilitating the design of novel catalytic systems and promoting our understanding of the reaction selectivity.

Abstract
ConspectusLow-valent, low-coordinate 3d metal complexes represent a class of extraordinarily reactive compounds that can act as reagents and catalysts for challenging bond-activation reactions. The pursuit of these electron-deficient metal complexes in low oxidation states demands ancillary ligands capable of providing not only energetic stabilization but also sufficiently high steric bulk at the metal center. From this perspective, pincer ligands are particularly advantageous, as their prearranged, meridional coordination mode scaffolds the active center while the substituents of the peripheral donor atoms provide effective steric shielding for the coordination sphere. In a T-shaped geometry, the transition metal complexes possess a precisely defined vacant coordination site, which, combined with the often observed high-spin electron configuration, exhibits unusually high selectivity of these compounds with respect to one-electron redox chemistry. In light of the intractable reaction pathways typically observed with related electronically unsaturated 3d transition metal complexes, the pincer coordination mode enables the isolation of low-valent compounds with more controlled and unique reactivity. We have thus investigated a series of T-shaped metal(I) complexes using three different types of pincer ligands, which may be regarded as "metalloradicals" due to their selectively exposed unpaired electrons.These compounds display remarkably high thermal stability and represent rarely observed "naked" monovalent metal species featuring both monomeric and dimeric structures. Extensive reactivity studies using various organic substrates highlight a strong tendency of these paramagnetic compounds to undergo one-electron oxidation, leading to the isolation of a plethora of metal(II) species with reduced organic ligands as unusual structural elements. The exploration of C2 symmetric T-shaped Ni(I) complexes as asymmetric catalysts also shows success in enantioselective hydrodehalogenation of geminal dihalogenides. In addition, this specific class of low-valent, low-coordinate complexes can be further diversified by introducing redox-active pincer ligands or building homobimetallic systems with two T-shaped units.This Account focuses on the discussion of selected examples of iron, cobalt, and nickel pincer complexes bearing a [P,N,P] or [N,N,N] donor set; however, their electronic structure and radical-type reactivity can be broadly extended to other pincer systems. The availability of various types of pincer ligands should allow fine-tuning of the reactivity of the T-shaped complexes. Given the unprecedented reactivity observed with these compounds, we expect the studies of T-shaped 3d metal complexes to be a fertile field for advancing base metal catalysis.

Abstract
The chemical bond between a transition metal and a methyl group (M-CH3) is typically defined as a single covalent bond, which is of fundamental significance and general interest in understanding the structural properties and reactivity of transition metal alkyl compounds. Herein, we demonstrate that the M-CH3 bonding involves varying σ and π components and thus should be best described in terms of the partial double M═CH3 bond. The often-neglected π bonding stems from an occupied π-symmetric orbital of the methyl group comprising all three C-H σ bonds (but one C-H' contributes more than the other two) and a vacant low-lying metal d(π) orbital, and is associated with the intramolecular C-H'···M agostic effect (i.e., an acute M-C-H' angle and a short H'···M distance), whose origin is still controversial. We quantify the geometric and energetic impacts of the π interaction involved in the M-CH3 bond by explicitly computing the intramolecular πCH' → dM interaction with the ab initio valence bond (VB) theory. Our computations of the ligand-free [TiCH3]3+ and a series of metallocene catalysts provide a direct proof for the presence of the π bonding in M-CH3 bonds, which is the cause for the agostic effect. The partial double M═CH3 bonding model is not only validated by a range of bonding analyses including VB self-consistent field (VBSCF)-based energy decomposition and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) but also authenticated by the specific activity of double M═CH3 bonds in the C-H activation and olefin insertion. More importantly, the σ bond gradually switches from a classical covalent bond to a novel charge-shift bond with the π bonding becoming increasingly significant. We anticipate that the recognition of the π interaction between electrophilic metal centers and C-H bonds can benefit the understanding of the nature of metal-carbon bonds in transition metal ethyl, alkyl, and carbene compounds.

Abstract
α-Diazocarbonyl compounds serve as nucleophiles, dipoles, carbene precursors, and rare electrophiles, enabling a vast array of organic transformations under the influence of metal catalysts. Among them, rearrangement processes are attractive and provide straightforward and efficient accesses to one-carbon extension adducts or heteroatom-containing molecules. The reactions occur upon the release of dinitrogen after nucleophilic addition or before ylide formation. Although significant progress has been made for these two types of rearrangement reactions, the issue of enantiocontrol is challenging because the final optically enriched products are generated via multistep transformations and the inherent spacial arrangement of the intermediates has more or less influence on the regio- and enantioselectivity.In this Account, we collected several rearrangements of α-diazocarbonyl compounds, showcasing the efficient catalysts and tailored strategies for tackling enantioselective varieties of these two types of rearrangement reactions. Our research group initiated the catalytic asymmetric reactions of α-diazocarbonyl compounds during the development of chiral Feng N,N'-dioxide-metal complex catalysts and others. As a kind of useful chiral Lewis acid catalyst chiral N,N'-dioxide-metal complexes are favorable for the activation of various carbonyl compounds, accelerating the diastereo- and enantioselective nucleophilic addition of α-diazoesters and the sequential rearrangements in either an intermolecular or intramolecular manner. Aldehydes, acyclic and cyclic ketone derivatives, and α,β-unsaturated ketones could participate in efficient asymmetric homologation reactions, and an obvious ligand-acceleration effect is observed in these processes. For example, the Roskamp-Feng reaction of aldehydes gives optically active β-ketoesters through a H-shift, overwhelming the aryl group shift or oxygen attack. The shift preference and enantiocontrol in the homologation of acyclic and cyclic ketone derivatives could be under excellent control of the chiral catalysts. An unusual electrophilic α-amination of aryl/alkyl ketones and even a complicated homologation/dyotropic rearrangement/interconversion/[3 + 2] cycloaddition cascade used to construct dimeric polycyclic compounds were discovered as a result of the selection of chiral ligands and additives. On the basis of the understanding of the interaction of the functional group with N,N'-dioxide-metal complexes in catalysis and the key enantio-determining issues in ylide-based rearrangements, we designed new α-diazocarbonyl compounds by introducing a pyrazole-1-carboxyl group as the acceptor unit, which could benefit the formation of both carbenoid species and the chiral catalyst-bound ylides to deliver stereoselectivity. Taking advantage of Ni(II) or Co(II) complexes of Feng N,N'-dioxide ligands, we realized several kinds of enantioselective [2,3]-sigmatropic rearrangements, such as the Doyle-Kirmse reaction with allylic sulfides or selenides, [2,3]-Stevens rearrangements of vinyl-substituted α-diazo pyrazoleamides with thioacetates, Sommelet-Hauser rearrangements of aryl-substituted α-diazo pyrazoleamides with thioamides, and thio-Claisen rearrangements of 2-thio-indoles as well. Moreover, this strategy was shown to be applicable to highly γ-selective and enantioselective insertion into N-H bonds of secondary amines with vinyl-substituted α-diazo pyrazoleamides.

Abstract
Sulfur/carbon/sulfur pincer ligands have an interesting combination of strong-field and weak-field donors, a coordination environment that is also present in the nitrogenase active site. Here, we explore the electronic structures of iron(II) and iron(III) complexes with such a pincer ligand, bearing a monodentate phosphine, thiolate S donor, amide N donor, ammonia, or CO. The ligand scaffold features a proton-responsive thioamide site, and the protonation state of the ligand greatly influences the reduction potential of iron in the phosphine complex. The N-H bond dissociation free energy, derived from the Bordwell equation, is 56 ± 2 kcal/mol. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometry measurements show that the iron(III) complexes with S and N as the fourth donors have an intermediate spin (S = 3/2) ground state with a large zero field splitting, and X-ray absorption spectra show a high Fe-S covalency. The Mössbauer spectrum changes drastically with the position of a nearby alkali metal cation in the iron(III) amido complex, and density functional theory calculations explain this phenomenon through a change between having the doubly occupied orbital as dz2 or dyz, as the former is more influenced by the nearby positive charge.

Abstract
The metallostannylene Cp*(iPr2MeP)(H)2Fe-SnDMP (1; Cp* = η5-C5Me5; DMP = 2,6-dimesitylphenyl), formed by hydrogen migration in a putative Cp*(iPr2MeP)HFe[Sn(H)DMP] intermediate, serves as a robust platform for exploration of transition-metal main-group element bonding and reactivity. Upon one-electron oxidation, 1 expels H2 to generate the coordinatively unsaturated [Cp*(iPr2MeP)Fe═SnDMP][B(C6F5)4] (3), which possesses a highly polarized Fe-Sn multiple bond that involves interaction of the tin lone pair with iron. Evidence from EPR and 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy, along with DFT studies, shows that 3 is primarily an iron-based radical with charge localization at tin. Upon reduction of 3, C-H bond activation of the phosphine ligand was observed to produce Cp*HFe(κ2-(P,Sn)═Sn(DMP)CH2CHMePMeiPr) (5). Complex 5 was also accessed via thermolysis of 1, and kinetics studies of this thermolytic pathway indicate that the reductive elimination of H2 from 1 to produce a stannylyne intermediate, Cp*(iPr2MeP)Fe[SnDMP] (A), is likely rate-determining. Evidence indicates that the production of 5 proceeds through a concerted C-H bond activation. DFT investigations suggest that the transition state for this transformation involves C-H cleavage across the Fe-Sn bond and that a related transition state where C-H bond activation occurs exclusively at the tin center is disfavored, illustrating an effect of iron-tin cooperativity in this system.

Abstract
A light-driven method for the contra-thermodynamic positional isomerization of olefins is described. In this work, stepwise PCET activation of a more substituted and more thermodynamically stable olefin substrate is mediated by an excited-state oxidant and a Brønsted base to afford an allylic radical that is captured by a Cr(II) cocatalyst to furnish an allylchromium(III) intermediate. In situ protodemetalation of this allylchromium complex by methanol is highly regioselective and affords an isomerized and less thermodynamically stable alkene product. The higher oxidation potential of the less substituted olefin isomer renders it inert to further oxidation by the excited-state oxidant, enabling it to accumulate in solution over the course of the reaction. A broad range of isopropylidene substrates are accommodated, including enol ethers, enamides, styrenes, 1,3-dienes, and tetrasubstituted alkyl olefins. Mechanistic investigations of the protodemetalation step are also presented.

Abstract
This report investigates homoleptic iron(II) complexes of thiazolinyl analogues of chiral PyBox tridentate ligands: 2,6-bis(4-phenyl-4,5-dihydrothiazol-2-yl)pyridine (L1Ph), 2,6-bis(4-isopropyl-4,5-dihydrothiazol-2-yl)pyridine (L1iPr), and 2,6-bis(4-tert-butyl-4,5-dihydrothiazol-2-yl)pyridine (L1t-Bu). Crystallographic data imply the larger and more flexible thiazolinyl rings reduce steric clashes between the R substituents in homochiral [Fe((R)-L1R)2]2+ or [Fe((S)-L1R)2]2+ (R = Ph, iPr, or t-Bu), compared to their PyBox (L2R) analogues. Conversely, the larger heterocyclic S atoms are in close contact with the R substituents in heterochiral [Fe((R)-L1Ph)((S)-L1Ph)]2+, giving it a more sterically hindered ligand environment than that in [Fe((R)-L2Ph)((S)-L2Ph)]2+ (L2Ph = 2,6-bis(4-phenyl-4,5-dihydrooxazol-2-yl)pyridine). Preformed [Fe((R)-L1Ph)((S)-L1Ph)]2+ and [Fe((R)-L1iPr)((S)-L1iPr)]2+ do not racemize by ligand redistribution in CD3CN solution, but homochiral [Fe(L1iPr)2]2+ and [Fe(L1t-Bu)2]2+ both undergo partial ligand displacement in that solvent. Homochiral [Fe(L1Ph)2]2+ and [Fe(L1iPr)2]2+ exhibit spin-crossover equilibria in CD3CN, centered at 344 ± 6 K and 277 ± 1 K respectively, while their heterochiral congeners are essentially low-spin within the liquid range of the solvent. These data imply that the diastereomers of [Fe(L1Ph)2]2+ and [Fe(L1iPr)2]2+ show a greater difference in their spin-state behaviors than was previous found for [Fe(L2Ph)2]2+. Gas-phase DFT calculations (B86PW91/def2-SVP) of the [Fe(L1R)2]2+ and [Fe(L2R)2]2+ complexes reproduce most of the observed trends, but they overstabilize the high-spin state of SCO-active [Fe(L1iPr)2]2+ by ca. 1.5 kcal mol-1. This might reflect the influence of intramolecular dispersion interactions on the spin states of these compounds. Attempts to model this with the dispersion-corrected functionals B97-D2 or PBE-D3 were less successful than our original protocol, confirming that the spin states of sterically hindered molecules are a challenging computational problem.

Abstract
Developing high-performance catalysts toward the Fenton reaction is important for environmental protection and sustainable development, yet it is still challenging. The high-spin states of first-row transition metal atoms with tetrahedral coordination provide a flexible electronic environment to activate the catalyst and elevate its catalytic activity. As a type of material with adjustable structures, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are excellent candidate catalysts as they can accurately regulate the coordination configurations of metal ions. In this paper, we investigate and summarize the direct formation of bimetallic carboxylate Li/Co-MOFs with tetrahedral coordination metal centers in a mixed H2O/polar organic solvent system. The induction of Li(I) ions is manifested in the generation of hydroxides during the dissociation of the Co(II) solvation structure to trigger the tetrahedral coordination behavior of Co(II). These Li/Co-MOFs containing high-spin Co(II) centers can serve as highly efficient Fenton-like catalysts for organics. This study provides a promising strategy for rational design of MOF-based catalysts with high-spin metal centers for application in environment governance.

Abstract
Vinylcarbene insertion into the nitrogen-hydrogen (N-H) bond of amines allows direct access to α,β-unsaturated γ-amino acid derivatives, meeting a marked challenge in the control of regio- and enantioselectivities. Here, we report a highly γ-selective and enantioselective insertion into N-H bonds of aliphatic or aromatic secondary amines with vinyl substituted α-diazo pyrazoleamides using a high-spin chiral N,N'-dioxide/cobalt(II) complex catalyst. The method affords a wide variety of valuable optically active Z- and E-type vinyl γ-amino amides. Calculation reveals a spin state change from the quartet cobalt(II) complex to a doublet Co(II)-carbene species for facile Z-selective and enantioselective nucleophilic addition.

Abstract
The temperature of the solution-phase spin-crossover equilibrium in iron(ii) complexes of 4-alkylsulfanyl-2,6-di{pyrazol-1-yl}pyridine (bppSR) complexes depends strongly on the alkylsulfanyl substituent. DFT calculations imply this reflects the conformation of the alkylsulfanyl groups, which lie perpendicular to the heterocyclic ligand donors in [Fe(bppStBu)2]2+ but are oriented co-planar with the ligand core for smaller SR substituents.

Abstract
The E/Z stereocontrol in a C=C bond is a fundamental issue in olefin synthesis. Although the thermodynamically more stable E geometry is readily addressable by thermal Z to E geometric isomerization through equilibrium, it has remained difficult to undergo thermal geometric isomerization to the reverse E to Z direction in a selective manner, because it requires kinetic trapping of Z-isomer with injection of chemical energy. Here we report that a dinuclear PdI-PdI complex mediates selective isomerization of E-1,3-diene to its Z-isomer without photoirradiation, where kinetic trapping is achieved through rational sequences of dinuclear elementary steps. The chemical energy required for the E to Z isomerization can be injected from an organic conjugate reaction through sharing of common Pd species.

Abstract
In the past decade, the use of earth-abundant metals in homogeneous catalysis has flourished. In particular, metals such as cobalt and iron have been used extensively in reductive transformations including hydrogenation, hydroboration, and hydrosilylation. Manganese, on the other hand, has been considerably less explored in these reductive transformations. Here, we report a well-defined manganese complex, [Mn(iPrBDI)(OTf)2] (2a; BDI = bipyridinediimine), that is an active precatalyst in the hydroboration of a variety of electronically differentiated alkenes (>20 examples). The hydroboration is specifically selective for terminal alkenes and occurs with exclusive anti-Markovnikov selectivity. In contrast, when using the analogous cobalt complex [Co(iPrBDI)(OTf)2] (3a), internal alkenes are hydroborated efficiently, where a sequence of isomerization steps ultimately leads to their hydroboration. The contrasting terminal versus internal alkene selectivity for manganese and cobalt was investigated computationally and is further discussed in the herein-reported study.

Abstract
![]()
The
transition between spin states in d-block metal complexes has
important ramifications for their structure and reactivity, with applications
ranging from information storage materials to understanding catalytic
activity of metalloenzymes. Tuning the ligand field (ΔO) by steric and/or electronic effects has provided spin-crossover
compounds for several transition metals in the periodic table, but
this has mostly been limited to coordinatively saturated metal centers
in octahedral ligand environments. Spin-crossover complexes with low
coordination numbers are much rarer. Here we report a series of four-coordinate,
(pseudo)tetrahedral Fe(II) complexes with formazanate ligands and
demonstrate how electronic substituent effects can be used to modulate
the thermally induced transition between S = 0 and S = 2 spin states in solution. All six compounds undergo
spin-crossover in solution with T1/2 above
room temperature (300–368 K). While structural analysis by
X-ray crystallography shows that the majority of these compounds are
low-spin in the solid state (and remain unchanged upon heating), we
find that packing effects can override this preference and give rise
to either rigorously high-spin (6) or gradual spin-crossover
behavior (5) also in the solid state. Density functional
theory calculations are used to delineate the empirical trends in
solution spin-crossover thermodynamics. In all cases, the stabilization
of the low-spin state is due to the π-acceptor properties of
the formazanate ligand, resulting in an “inverted” ligand
field, with an approximate “two-over-three” splitting
of the d-orbitals and a high degree of metal–ligand covalency
due to metal → ligand π-backdonation. The computational
data indicate that the electronic nature of the para-substituent has a different influence depending on whether it is
present at the C–Ar or N–Ar rings, which is ascribed
to the opposing effect on metal–ligand σ- and π-bonding.
