Abstract
Since the first heavy alkene analogues of germanium and tin were isolated in 1976, followed by West's disilene in 1981, the chemistry of stable group 14 dimetallenes and dimetallynes has advanced immensely. Recent developments in this field veered the focus from the isolation of novel bonding motifs to mimicking transition metals in their ability to activate small molecules and perform catalysis. The potential of these homonuclear multiply bonded compounds has been demonstrated numerous times in the activation of H2, NH3, CO2 and other small molecules. Hereby, the strong relationship between structure and reactivity warrants close attention towards rational ligand design. This minireview provides an overview on recent developments in regard to bond activation with group 14 dimetallenes and dimetallynes with the perspective of potential catalytic applications of these compounds.

Abstract
Phosphorus ylides are 1,2-dipolar compounds with a negative charge on the carbon atom. This charge is stabilized by the neighbouring onium moiety, but can also be shifted towards other substituents thus making ylides strong π donor ligands and hence ideal substituents to stabilize reactive compounds such as cations and low-valent main group species. Furthermore, the donor strength and the steric properties can easily be tuned to meet different requirements for stabilizing reactive compounds and for tailoring the properties and reactivities of the main group element. Although the use of ylide substituents in main group chemistry is still in its infancy, the first examples of isolated compounds impressively demonstrate the potential of these ligands. This review summarizes the most important discoveries also in comparison to other substituents, thus outlining avenues for future research directions.

Abstract
The synthesis and isolation of novel low oxidation state aluminium (Al) compounds has seen relatively slow progress over the 30 years since such species were first isolated. This is largely due to the significant challenges in isolating these thermodynamically unstable compounds. Despite challenges with isolation, their reactivity has been widely explored and they have been utilized in a wide range of processes including the activation of strong chemicals bonds, as ligands to transition metals and in the formation of heterobimetallic M-M compounds. As such, attempts to isolate novel low oxidation state Al compounds have continued in earnest and in the last few years huge advances have been made. In this review we highlight the remarkable recent developments in the low oxidation state chemistry of aluminium and discuss the variety of new reactions these compounds have made possible.

Abstract
Several examples of stable low-coordinated species of heavier group 14 elements (Si, Ge, Sb, Pb) such as divalent species and multiple-bond compounds have been reported. With the goal in mind to create unprecedented low-coordinated species of heavier group 14 elements that exhibit considerably increased redox stability, ferrocenyl (Fc)-substituted low-coordinated species of heavier group 14 elements were designed. In this short account article, recent progress on the synthesis of Fc-based low-coordinated species of heavier group 14 elements is summarized.

Abstract
![]()
Herein we present a Bi-catalyzed
cross-coupling of arylboronic
acids with perfluoroalkyl sulfonate salts based on a Bi(III)/Bi(V)
redox cycle. An electron-deficient sulfone ligand proved to be key
for the successful implementation of this protocol, which allows the
unusual construction of C(sp2)–O bonds using commercially
available NaOTf and KONf as coupling partners. Preliminary mechanistic
studies as well as theoretical investigations reveal the intermediacy
of a highly electrophilic Bi(V) species, which rapidly eliminates
phenyl triflate.

Abstract
The first example of main group metal Bi(iii)-catalyzed aminooxygenation of fluorinated propargyl amidines was developed to produce 2-fluoroalkyl imidazole-5-carbaldehydes in moderate to excellent yields, in which phenol played a critical role and could be recovered and recycled. In the presence of KOt-Bu, an unconventional decarbonylation occurred on the 2-fluoroalkyl imidazole-5-carbaldehydes.

Abstract
1,2-Insertion reactions of alkynes into the Ge-C bonds in dibromodigermenes afford stable crystalline bromovinylgermylenes. In contrast to previously reported Lewis-base-supported vinylgermylenes, the bromovinylgermylene obtained from reaction of the bromogermylene with 3-hexyne via such an 1,2-insertion is a donor-free monomer. A feasible reaction mechanism, proposed on the basis of the observed experimental results in combination with theoretical calculations, suggests that the [1+2]-cycloadduct and the insertion product are the kinetic and thermodynamic product, respectively.

Abstract
While the metathesis reaction between alkynes and carbonyl compounds is an important tool in organic synthesis, the reactivity of alkynes with isoelectronic main-group R2E═O compounds is unexplored. Herein, we show that oxophosphonium ions, which are the isoelectronic phosphorus congeners to carbonyl compounds, undergo [2 + 2] cycloaddition reactions with different alkynes to generate 1,2-oxaphosphete ions, which were isolated and structurally characterized. The strained phosphorus-oxygen heterocycles open to the corresponding heterodiene structure at elevated temperature, which was used to generate six-membered phosphorus heterocycles via hetero Diels-Alder reactions. Insights into the influence of the substituents at the phosphorus center on the energy profile of the oxygen atom transfer reaction were obtained by quantum-chemical calculations.

Abstract
The electronically unsaturated three-coordinated hydridoborenium cations [LBH]+[HB(C6F5)3]- (1) and [LBH]+[B(C6F5)4]- (2), supported by a bis(phosphinimino)amide ligand, were found to be excellent catalysts for hydrosilylation of a range of aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes and ketones under mild reaction conditions (L = [{(2,4,6-Me3C6H2N)P(Ph2)}2N]). The key steps of the catalytic cycle for hydrosilylation of PhCHO were monitored via in situ multinuclear NMR measurements for catalysts 1 and 2. The combined effect of carbonyl activation via the Lewis acidic hydridoborenium cation and the hydridic nature of the borate counteranion in 1 makes it a more efficient catalyst in comparison to that of carbonyl activation via the predominant Lewis acid activation pathway operating with catalyst 2. The catalytic cycle of 1 showed hydride transfer from the borate moiety [HB(C6F5)3]- to PhCHO in the first step, forming [PhCH2-O-B(C6F5)3]-, which subsequently underwent σ-bond metathesis with Et3SiH to form the product, PhCH2-O-SiEt3. Quantum chemical calculations also support the borate anion mediated mechanism with 1. In contrast, the reaction catalyzed by 2 proceeds predominantly via the Lewis acid activation of the carbonyl group involving [LB(H)←OC(H)Ph]+[B(C6F5)4]- as the transition state and [LBOCH2Ph]+[B(C6F5)4]- as the intermediate.

Abstract
Internal and terminal alkynes react with phosphanylalumanes, i. e., P-Al single-bond species, through heating but without any additional additives. The reactions with internal alkynes afforded the corresponding adducts with cis-1,2-form in moderate yields (54-80 %). In addition, alkyne adducts thus obtained function as P/Al-based C2 -vicinal FLPs, and the FLP addition reactions with benzaldehyde and CO2 were demonstrated. Furthermore, in the reaction of 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl-substituted alkyne adducts with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, an unexpected CAr -CMe bond cleavage characteristic of this system was demonstrated.

Abstract
Due to their outstanding reactivity, acyclic silylenes have emerged as attractive organosilicon alternatives for transition metal complexes on the way to metal-free catalysis. However, exploration of their reactivity is still in its infancy, as only a few derivatives of this unique compound class have been isolated so far. Here, we present the results of an extensive reactivity investigation of the previously reported acyclic iminosiloxysilylene 1. Divalent silylene 1 proved to be a versatile building block for a plethora of novel organosilicon compounds. Thus, not only the activation of the rather challenging targets NH3 and P4 could be achieved, but also the conversion into a reactive donor-free silaimine, which itself turned out to be a useful reagent for small molecule activation. In addition, 1 served as an excellent precursor for gaining access to donor-stabilized heavier carbonyl compounds. Our results thus provide further insights into the chemistry of low-valent silicon at the interface between carbon and transition metals.

Abstract
The reaction of GeCl2·dioxane with 2 equiv of the thiolate LiSHyp [Hyp = Si(SiMe3)3] yields the germanide (12-crown-4)2Li[Ge(SHyp)3] (1). A small structural variation in the substituent leads to a completely different result because the reaction of GeCl2·dioxane with 2 equiv of the thiolate KSHypPh3 [HypPh3 = Si(SiMe3)2(SiPh3)] in toluene yields the unexpected compound [Ph3Si][Me3Si]Ge[{(C6H5)Ph2Si}{SiMe3}2SiS]Si[SSiMe3] (2) in high yield. The reaction cascade to give 2 includes several rearrangement reactions and an intramolecular [2 + 4] cycloaddition of a phenyl ring. The syntheses and molecular structures of both compounds are presented, together with quantum-chemical calculations and NMR measurements, to enlighten the reaction mechanism behind the formation of 2.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic conversion of earth-abundant simple molecules into value-added commodity chemicals can transform current chemical production regimes with enormous socioeconomic and environmental benefits. For these applications, 2D electrocatalysts have emerged as a new class of high-performance electrocatalyst with massive forward-looking potential. Recent advances in 2D electrocatalysts are reviewed for emerging applications that utilize naturally existing H2 O, N2 , O2 , Cl- (seawater) and CH4 (natural gas) as reactants for nitrogen reduction (N2 → NH3 ), two-electron oxygen reduction (O2 → H2 O2 ), chlorine evolution (Cl- → Cl2 ), and methane partial oxidation (CH4 → CH3 OH) reactions to generate NH3 , H2 O2 , Cl2 , and CH3 OH. The unique 2D features and effective approaches that take advantage of such features to create high-performance 2D electrocatalysts are articulated with emphasis. To benefit the readers and expedite future progress, the challenges facing the future development of 2D electrocatalysts for each of the above reactions and the related perspectives are provided.

Abstract
Main group multiple bonds have proven their ability to act as transition metal mimics in the last few decades. However, catalytic application of these species is still in its infancy. Herein we report the second neutral NHC-stabilised dialumene species by use of a supporting aryl ligand (3). Different to the trans-planar silyl-substituted dialumene (3Si), compound 3 features a trans-bent and twisted geometry. The differences between the two dialumenes are explored computationally (using B3LYP-D3/6-311G(d)) as well as experimentally. A high influence of the ligand's steric demand on the structural motif is revealed, giving rise to enhanced reactivity of 3 enabled by a higher flexibility in addition to different polarisation of the aluminium centres. As such, facile activation of dihydrogen is now achievable. The influence of ligand choice is further implicated in two different catalytic reactions; not only is the aryl-stabilised dialumene more catalytically active but the resulting product distributions also differ, thus indicating the likelihood of alternate mechanisms simply through a change of supporting ligand. Ligand controlled reactivity: a trans-bent and twisted geometry enables dihydrogen activation and enhanced catalytic activity for NHC-stabilised dialumenes.![]()

Abstract
Main-group-element compounds with energetically high-lying donor and low-lying acceptor orbitals are able to mimic chemical bonding motifs and reactivity patterns known in transition metal chemistry, including small-molecule activation and catalytic reactions. Monovalent group 13 compounds and divalent group 14 compounds, particularly silylenes, have been shown to be excellent candidates for this purpose. However, one of the most common reactions of transition metal complexes, the direct reaction with carbon monoxide and formation of room-temperature isolable carbonyl complexes, is virtually unknown in main-group-element chemistry. Here, we show the synthesis, single-crystal X-ray structure, and density functional theory computations of a room-temperature-stable silylene carbonyl complex [L(Br)Ga]2Si:-CO (L = HC[C(Me)N(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)]2), which was obtained by direct carbonylation of the electron-rich silylene intermediate [L(Br)Ga]2Si:. Furthermore, [L(Br)Ga]2Si:-CO reacts with H2 and PBr3 with bond activation, whereas the reaction with cyclohexyl isocyanide proceeds with CO substitution.

Abstract
The reaction of bis(silylenyl)-substituted ferrocene 1 with two molar equivalents of BPh3 yields the corresponding bis(silylene-borane) Lewis adduct 2. The latter is capable to activate CO2 to furnish the borane-stabilized bis(silanone) 3 through mono-oxygenation of the dative SiII →B silicon centers under release of CO. Removal of BPh3 from 3 with PMe3 affords the corresponding 1,3,2,4-cyclodisiloxane and the Me3 P-BPh3 adduct. All isolated new compounds were characterized and their molecular structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.

Abstract
The chemistry of low-valent main group elements has attracted much attention in the past decade. These species are relevant because they have been able to mimic transition metal behavior in catalytic applications, with decreased material costs and diminished toxicity. In this contribution, we study the L1EH catalysts (E = Si(II), Ge(II), Sn(II), and Pb(II); L1 = [ArNC(Me)CHC(Me)NAr] with Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) for the formation of formic acid derivatives through hydroboration of CO2. Detailed characterization of relevant structures on the potential energy surface enabled us to rationalize different paths for the hydroboration of CO2. Interestingly, it was found that according to the activation energies for the whole catalytic cycle, the process of transformation of CO2 becomes more favored going down group 14. However, an effective energetic decrease for the process (taking as the reference the uncatalyzed reaction between CO2 and HBpin) is evidenced just from the germanium analogue. The trend in reactivity found in the present study is a direct consequence of the change in the central main group element, enabling enhanced polar character of the E-H (L1EH in the CO2 activation step) and E-O (metal formates in the hydroboration step) bonds as the atomic radius increases. The transient stabilization of reaction intermediates found in the hydroboration step was rationalized through the non-covalent interaction index (NCI) and symmetry-adapted perturbation theory (SAPT). This computational study highlights the reactivity trends in group-14-based hydride catalysts in hydrometalation and posterior hydroboration to form formic acid intermediates. We hope that this study will motivate further experimental work in low-valent lead chemistry.

Abstract
The reactions of the PMe3 adduct of the silylated germylene [(Me3Si)3Si]2Ge: with GeCl2·dioxane were found to yield 1,1-migratory insertion products of GeCl2 into one or two Ge–Si bonds. In a related reaction, a germylene was inserted with tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl and vinyl substituents into a Ge–Cl bond of GeCl2. This was followed by intramolecular trimethylsilyl chloride elimination to another cyclic germylene PMe3 adduct. The reaction of the GeCl2 mono-insertion product (Me3Si)3SiGe:GeCl2Si(SiMe3)3 with Me3SiC≡CH gave a mixture of alkyne mono- and diinsertion products. While the reaction of a divinylgermylene with GeCl2·dioxane only results in the exchange of the dioxane of GeCl2 against the divinylgermylene as base, the reaction of [(Me3Si)3Si]2Ge: with one GeCl2·dioxane and three phenylacetylenes gives a trivinylated germane with a chlorogermylene attached to one of the vinyl units.

Abstract
We introduce a large-scale synthesis of a sterically encumbered N-heterocyclic olefin (NHO) and illustrate the ability of its deprotonated form to act as an anionic four-electron bridging ligand. The resulting multicenter donating ability has been used to link two low oxidation state Ge(II) centers in close proximity, leading to bridging Ge-Cl-Ge and Ge-H-Ge bonding environments supported by Ge2C2 heterocyclic manifolds. Reduction of a dimeric [RGeCl]2 species (R = anionic NHO, [(MeCNDipp)2C═CH]-; Dipp = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) did not give the expected acyclic RGeGeR analogue of an alkyne, but rather ligand migration/disproportionation transpired to yield the known diorganogermylene R2Ge and Ge metal. This process was examined computationally, and the ability of the reported anionic NHO to undergo atom migration chemistry contrasts with what is typically found with bulky monoanionic ligands (such as terphenyl ligands).

Abstract
DMAP-stabilized silylenes 1a–c are obtained from the reductive debromination of the corresponding dibromosilanes in the presence of DMAP. Their distinctly different thermal isomerization reactions via C–H bond activation, dearomative ring expansion and silyl migration are discussed. Furthermore, complexes 1 dissociate at elevated temperatures, providing the corresponding free silylenes in situ, which are even capable of single-site activation of H2. Additionally, a potassium-substituted silicon-centered radical 2 is isolated from overreduction of (tBu3Si)2SiBr2. DMAP-stabilized silylenes 1a–c, which are convenient, room temperature stable synthetic equivalents for the corresponding highly reactive free bis(silyl)silylenes are reported.![]()

Abstract
Twenty-three dinuclear aluminum halide complexes based on bis(β-diketiminate) ligands with various flexible and rigid bridging groups have been synthesized and fully characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and elemental analysis. In addition, nine complexes were structurally characterized by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Attempts to reduce the dinuclear species using C8K remained unsuccessful, but the reduction potentials investigated by cyclic voltammetry indicate the principle feasibility.

Abstract
The previously reported dimeric NHI aluminum dihydrides 1 a,b, as well as the bis(NHI) aluminum dihydride salt 9 +[OTs]-, the bis(NHI) boron dihydride salt 10 +[OTs]-, and the "free" bis(NHI) ligand 12 were investigated with regard to their activity as a homogenous (pre)catalyst in the hydroboration (i. e. catalytic reduction) of carbon dioxide (CO2) in chloroform under mild conditions (i. e. room temperature, 1 atm; NHI=N-heterocyclic imine, Ts=tosyl). Borane dimethylsulfide complex and catecholborane were used as a hydride source. Surprisingly, the less sterically hindered 1 a exhibited lower catalytic activity than the bulkier 1 b. A similarly unexpected discrepancy was found with the lower catalytic activity of 10 + in comparison to the one of the bis(NHI) 12. The latter is incorporated as the ligand to the boron center in 10 +. To elucidate possible mechanisms for CO2 reduction the compounds were subjected to stoichiometric reactivity studies with the borane or CO2. Aluminum carboxylates 4, 6, and 7 + with two, four, and one formate group per two aluminum centers were isolated. Also, the boron formate salt 11 +[OTs]- was characterized. Selected metal formates were subjected to stoichiometric reactions with boranes and/or tested as a catalyst. We conclude that each type of catalyst (1 a,b, 9 +, 10 +, 12) follows an individual mechanistic pathway for CO2 reduction.

Abstract
The influence of substituents on α-borylated phosphorus ylides (α-BCPs) has been investigated in a combined experimental and quantum chemical approach. The synthesis and characterization of Me3 PC(H)B(iBu)2 (1), consisting of small Me substituents on phosphorous and iBu residues on boron, is reported. Compound 1 is accessible through a novel synthetic approach, which has been further elucidated through DFT studies. The reactivity of 1 towards various small molecules was probed and compared with that of a previously published derivative, Ph3 PC(Me)BEt2 (2). Both α-BCPs react with NH3 to undergo heterolytic N-H bond cleavage. Different di- and trimeric ring structures were observed in the reaction products of 1 with CO and CO2 . With PhNCO and PHNCS, the expected insertion products [Me3 PC(H)(PhNCO)B(iBu)2 ] and [Me3 PC(H)(PhNCS)B(iBu)2 ], respectively, were isolated.

Abstract
The low‐valent ß‐diketiminate complex (DIPPBDI)Al is stable in benzene but addition of catalytic quantities of [(DIPPBDI)CaH]2 at 20 °C led to (DIPPBDI)Al(Ph)H (DIPPBDI=CH[C(CH3)N‐DIPP]2, DIPP=2,6‐diisopropylphenyl). Similar Ca‐catalyzed C−H bond activation is demonstrated for toluene or p‐xylene. For toluene a remarkable selectivity for meta‐functionalization has been observed. Reaction of (DIPPBDI)Al(m‐tolyl)H with I2 gave m‐tolyl iodide, H2 and (DIPPBDI)AlI2 which was recycled to (DIPPBDI)Al. Attempts to catalyze this reaction with Mg or Zn hydride catalysts failed. Instead, the highly stable complexes (DIPPBDI)Al(H)M(DIPPBDI) (M=Mg, Zn) were formed. DFT calculations on the Ca hydride catalyzed arene alumination suggest that a similar but more loosely bound complex is formed: (DIPPBDI)Al(H)Ca(DIPPBDI). This is in equilibrium with the hydride bridged complex (DIPPBDI)Al(μ‐H)Ca(DIPPBDI) which shows strongly increased electron density at Al. The combination of Ca‐arene bonding and a highly nucleophilic Al center are key to facile C−H bond activation.

Abstract
Singly NHC-coordinated (aminoboryl)aminoborenium salts react with Na2 [Fe(CO)4 ] to yield stable coordination complexes of aminoborylene-stabilized aminoborylenes, which exhibit exceptional σ-donor properties. Upon photolytic CO extrusion from the metal center, the diboron ligand adopts a novel η3 -BBN coordination mode, where bond-strengthening backdonation from the metal center into the vacant B-B π-orbital is observed. This bonding situation can be alternatively described as a Fe-diaminodiborene complex. In a related reduction of CAAC-stabilized (aminoboryl)aminoborenium with KC8 , the reduced species can be captured with nucleophiles to form three-coordinate (diaminoboryl)borylenes, where both amino groups have migrated to the distal boron atom. Collectively, these reactions illustrate the isomeric flexibility imparted by amino groups on this reduced diboron system, thus opening multiple avenues of novel reactivity.
