Abstract
The treatment of bis[(dialkylamino)cyclopropenimines] with dihalophosphines in the presence of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TMSOTf) to form diimine-stabilized P(III) -centered dications is reported. The structures of the new compounds were determined by using X-ray diffraction analysis and their donor abilities as ligands evaluated through electrochemical methods. Despite the two positive charges that they bear, these compounds depict intermediate behavior between that of phosphines and phosphites. The coordination of the [L2 PR](2+) moiety to Au(I) and Ag(I) is also reported. Even more surprisingly, these phosphorus centers can be oxidized to the corresponding P(V) dications in the presence of strong oxidants such as peroxides or XeF2 .

Abstract
This work establishes the cyclopropenium ion as a viable platform for efficient phase-transfer catalysis of a diverse range of organic transformations. The amenability of these catalysts to large-scale synthesis and structural modification is demonstrated. Evaluation of the molecular structure of an optimal catalyst reveals some unique structural features of these systems. Finally, a discussion of electronic charge distribution underscores an important consideration for catalyst design.

Abstract
Versatile polyelectrolytes with tunable physical properties have the potential to be transformative in applications such as energy storage, fuel cells and various electronic devices. Among the types of materials available for these applications, nanostructured cationic block copolyelectrolytes offer mechanical integrity and well-defined conducting paths for ionic transport. To date, most cationic polyelectrolytes bear charge formally localized on heteroatoms and lack broad modularity to tune their physical properties. To overcome these challenges, we describe herein the development of a new class of functional polyelectrolytes based on the aromatic cyclopropenium ion. We demonstrate the facile synthesis of a series of polymers and nanoparticles based on monomeric cyclopropenium building blocks incorporating various functional groups that affect physical properties. The materials exhibit high ionic conductivity and thermal stability due to the nature of the cationic moieties, thus rendering this class of new materials as an attractive alternative to develop ion-conducting membranes.

Abstract
A straightforward synthesis of cyclopropenylidene-stabilized phosphenium cations 1 a-g through the reaction of [(iPr2N)2C3(+)Cl]BF4 with secondary phosphines is described. Their donor ability was evaluated by analysis of the CO stretching frequency in Rh complexes [RhCl(CO)L2](BF4)2 and electrochemical methods. The cyclopropenium ring induces a phosphite-type behavior that can be tuned by the other two substituents attached to the phosphorus atom. Despite of the positive charge that they bear, phosphenium cations 1 a-g still act as two-electron donor ligands, forming adducts with Pd(II) and Pt(II) precursors. Conversely, in the presence of Pd(0) species, an oxidative insertion of the Pd atom into the Ccarbene-phosphorus bond takes place, providing dimeric structures in which each Pd atom is bonded to a cyclopropenyl carbene while two dialkyl/diaryl phosphide ligands serve as bridges between the two Pd centers. The catalytic performance of the resulting library of Pt(II) complexes was tested; all of the cationic phosphines accelerated the prototype 6-endo-dig cyclization of 2-ethynyl-1,1'-biphenyl to afford pentahelicene. The best ligand 1 g was used in the synthesis of two natural products, chrysotoxene and epimedoicarisoside A.

Abstract
N-(pyridin-2-yl)thiazol-2-amine is a versatile chemical functional unit present in many therapeutically important species. Quantum chemical analysis shows that there are six competitive isomeric structures possible for this class of compounds within a relative energy difference of ∼4 kcal/mol. Some of the isomeric structures possess divalent N(I) character. There appears to be a competition between the thiazole and pyridine groups to accommodate the tautomeric hydrogen, and consequently show electron donating property in the structure with R-N←L representation. Details of electron distribution, tautomeric preferences, protonation energy, and divalent N(I) character, and so on, of this class of compounds are presented in this article. Subsequently, upon protonation, (L→N←L)(⊕) character is clearly evident in these moieties as molecular orbital analysis clearly shows two lone pairs of electrons on the central nitrogen, in this system.

Abstract
Several medicinally important compounds carry a 2-(thiazol-2-yl)guanidine unit. These species are generally (erroneously) represented as 1-(thiazol-2-yl)guanidine species. Quantum chemical studies were performed to identify the appropriate tautomeric state of this class of compounds. B3LYP/6-31+G(d) calculations indicate the preferred tautomeric state of these species is associated with the 2-(thiazol-2-yl)guanidine structure rather than the 1-(thiazol-2-yl)guanidine structure. G2MP2 calculations on the model system were carried out to study the electronic structure, electron delocalization, and protonation energy; MESP, ELF, HOMA, AIM, and NBO analyses were also carried out. The results indicate that this class of compounds may be treated as species with hidden ::N(←L)R character. Upon protonation of the thiazole ring nitrogen, these systems show the electronic structure as in ::N(←L)2(⊕) systems with divalent N(I) oxidation state.

Abstract
Quantum chemical calculations using DFT (BP86, M05-2X) and ab initio methods (CCSD(T), SCS-MP2) have been carried out on the borylene complexes (BH)L(2) and nitrogen cation complexes (N(+))L(2) with the ligands L=CO, N(2), PPh(3), NHC(Me), CAAC, and CAAC(model). The results are compared with those obtained for the isoelectronic carbones CL(2). The geometries and bond dissociation energies of the ligands, the proton affinities, and adducts with the Lewis acids BH(3) and AuCl were calculated. The nature of the bonding has been analyzed with charge and energy partitioning methods. The calculated borylene complexes (BH)L(2) have trigonal planar coordinated boron atoms which possess rather short B-L bonds. The calculated bond dissociation energies (BDEs) of the ligands for complexes where L is a carbene (NHC or CAAC) are very large (D(e) =141.6-177.3 kcal mol(-1)) which suggest that such species might become isolated in a condensed phase. The borylene complexes (BH)(PPh(3))(2) and (BH)(CO)(2) have intermediate bond strengths (D(e) =90.1 and 92.6 kcal mol(-1)). Substituted homologues with bulky groups at boron which protect the boron atom from electrophilic attack might also be stable enough to become isolated. The BDE of (BH)(N(2))(2) is much smaller (D(e) =31.9 kcal mol(-1)), but could become observable in a low-temperature matrix. The proton affinities of the borylene complexes are very large, particularly for the bulky adducts with L=PPh(3), NHC(Me), CAAC(model) and CAAC and thus, they are superbases. All (BH)L(2) molecules bind strongly AuCl either η(1) (L=N(2), PPh(3), NHC(Me), CAAC) or η(2) (L=CO, CAAC(model)). The BDEs of H(3)B-(BH)L(2) adducts which possess a hitherto unknown boron→boron donor-acceptor bond are smaller than for the AuCl complexes. The strongest bonded BH(3) adduct that might be isolable is (BH)(PPh(3))(2)-BH(3) (D(e) =36.2 kcal mol(-1)). The analysis of the bonding situation reveals that (BH)-L(2) bonding comes mainly from the orbital interactions which has three major contributions, that is, the donation from the symmetric (σ) and antisymmetric (π(||)) combination of the ligand lone-pair orbitals into the vacant MOs of BH L→(BH)←L and the L←(BH)→L π backdonation from the boron lone-pair orbital. The nitrogen cation complexes (N(+))L(2) have strongly bent L-N-L geometries, in which the calculated bending angle varies between 113.9° (L=N(2)) and 146.9° (L=CAAC). The BDEs for (N(+))L(2) are much larger than those of the borylene complexes. The carbene ligands NHC and CAAC but also the phosphane ligands PPh(3) bind very strongly between D(e) =358.4 kcal mol(-1) (L=PPh(3)) and D(e) =412.5 kcal mol(-1) (L=CAAC(model)). The proton affinities (PA) of (N(+))L(2) are much smaller and they bind AuCl and BH(3) less strongly compared with (BH)L(2). However, the PAs (N(+))L(2) for complexes with bulky ligands L are still between 139.9 kcal mol(-1) (L=CAAC(model)) and 168.5 kcal mol(-1) (L=CAAC). The analysis of the (N(+))-L(2) bonding situation reveals that the binding interactions come mainly from the L→(N(+))←L donation while L←(N(+) )→L π backdonation is rather weak.

Abstract
Carbene-stabilized [L(3)P](+3) cations have been synthesized for the first time by a reaction between 1-chloro-2,3-bis(dialkylamino)cyclopropenium salts and P(SiMe(3))(3). In addition, the first structural characterization of such an entity is reported. Consistent with the X-ray data, density functional calculations indicate that these P-centered cations, despite their high positive charge, still feature a nonbonding electron pair on the P-atom (HOMO) and a very low-lying LUMO depicting them as poor σ-donors and excellent π-acceptors.

Abstract
Carbon with the C(0) state has been reported recently, examples of which were known for the past decades. Silicon in the Si(0) state and phosphorus in the P(I) state are also known experimentally. This prompted us to search for divalent N(I) compounds, which resulted in the identification of ::N(←L)(2)(⊕) systems with bicoordinated nitrogen in the N(I) formal oxidation state. It was found that several biguanide derivatives (especially in their protonated state) belong to this class. Quantum chemical analysis provided the structural details, molecular orbitals, charge localization (vs delocalization) trends, etc. This class of compounds has been found to be characterized by two lone pairs on the central nitrogen, very similar to the central carbon in divalent C(0) compounds (::C(←L)(2)). The new bonding environment for nitrogen reported in this article, divalent nitrogen N(I), is clearly different from the nitrenium ions NR(2)(⊕). The electronic structure and reactivity of representative examples of this novel class of divalent nitrogen N(I) systems (::N(←L)(2)(⊕)) have been analyzed in detail, in terms of molecular orbitals, atomic charges, protonation energies, complexation energies with Lewis acids like BH(3), AlCl(3), and AuCl and compared with those of divalent C(0) systems.
