Abstract
Over the last two decades, the low-valent compounds of group-14 elements have received significant attention in several fields of chemistry owing to their unique electronic properties. The low-valent group-14 species include tetrylenes, tetryliumylidene, tetrylones, dimetallenes and dimetallynes. These low-valent group-14 species have shown applications in various areas such as organic transformations (hydroboration, cyanosilylation, N-functionalisation of amines, and hydroamination), small molecule activation (e.g. P4, As4, CO2, CO, H2, alkene, and alkyne) and materials. This review presents an in-depth discussion on low-valent group-14 species-catalyzed reactions, including polymerization of rac-lactide, L-lactide, DL-lactide, and caprolactone, followed by their photophysical properties (phosphorescence and fluorescence), thin film deposition (atomic layer deposition and vapor phase deposition), and medicinal applications. This review concisely summarizes current developments of low-valent heavier group-14 compounds, covering synthetic methodologies, structural aspects, and their applications in various fields of chemistry. Finally, their opportunities and challenges are examined and emphasized.

Abstract
Carbenes (R2C:), compounds with a divalent carbon atom containing only six valence shell electrons, have evolved into a broader class with the replacement of the carbene carbon or the RC moiety with main group elements, leading to the creation of main group carbene analogues. These analogues, mirroring the electronic structure of carbenes (a lone pair of electrons and an empty orbital), demonstrate unique reactivity. Over the last three decades, this area has seen substantial advancements, paralleling the innovations in carbene chemistry. Recent studies have revealed a spectrum of unique carbene analogues, such as monocoordinate aluminylenes, nitrenes, and bismuthinidenes, notable for their extraordinary properties and diverse reactivity, offering promising applications in small molecule activation. This review delves into the isolable main group carbene analogues that are in the forefront from 2010 and beyond, spanning elements from group 13 (B, Al, Ga, In, and Tl), group 14 (Si, Ge, Sn, and Pb) and group 15 (N, P, As, Sb, and Bi). Specifically, this review focuses on the potential amphiphilic species that possess both lone pairs of electrons and vacant orbitals. We detail their comprehensive synthesis and stabilization strategies, outlining the reactivity arising from their distinct structural characteristics.

Abstract
The strongly electron-donating N-heterocyclic imines (NHIs) have been employed as excellent surface anchors for the thermodynamic stabilization of electron-deficient species due to their enhanced nucleophilicity. However, the binding mode and interfacial property of these new ligands are still unclear, representing a bottleneck for advanced applications in surface functionalization and catalysis. Here, NHIs with different side groups have been rationally designed, synthesized, and analyzed on various metal surfaces (Cu, Ag). Our results reveal different binding modes depending on the molecular structure and metal surface. The molecular design enables us to achieve a flat-lying or upright configuration and even a transition between these two binding modes depending on the coverage and time. Importantly, the two binding modes exhibit different degrees of interfacial charge transfer between the molecule and the surface. This study provides essential microscopic insight into the NHI adsorption geometry and interfacial charge transfer for the optimization of heterogeneous catalysts in coordination chemistry.

Abstract
Tetryliumylidene ions ([R-E:]+), recognised for their intriguing electronic properties, have attracted considerable interest. These positively charged species, with two vacant p-orbitals and a lone pair at the E(ii) centre (E = Si, Ge, Sn, Pb), can be viewed as the combination of tetrylenes (R2E:) and tetrylium ions ([R3E]+), which makes them potent Lewis ambiphiles. Such electronic features highlight the potential of tetryliumylidenes for single-site small molecule activation and transition metal-free catalysis. The effective utilisation of the electrophilicity and nucleophilicity of tetryliumylidenes is expected to stem from appropriate ligand choice. For most of the isolated tetryliumylidenes, electron donor- and/or kinetic stabilisation is necessary. This minireview highlights the developments in tetryliumylidene syntheses and the progress of research towards their reactivity and applications in catalytic reactions.

Abstract
A combination of Ga(I) centers as important building blocks and scaffolds containing N-heterocyclic imines gives new insights into low-valent Ga chemistry. In this study, a mixture of LDipNLi (LDip = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazolin-2-ylidene), tBuOK, and Cp*Ga (Cp* = pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) in toluene afforded [LDipN-Ga]2 (1) via salt metathesis. X-ray structure analysis of 1 revealed a four-membered Ga2N2 ring, and DFT studies indicated the presence of a lone pair at each Ga center. In addition, compound 1 demonstrated diverse reactivities towards methyl trifluoromethanesulfonate, diphenyl disulfide, 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, and ECl2 (E = Ge or Sn).

Abstract
Singly and doubly cyclic alkyl(amino)iminate (CAAI)-substituted boranes and diboranes(4) were synthesised by halosilane elimination between a silylimine and halo(di)borane precursors. 11B NMR-spectroscopic studies show that the CAAI ligand is a much stronger electron donor than amino ligands. X-ray crystallographic analyses reveal that the degree of B-NCAAI double bonding increases with the electron-withdrawing capacity of the other substituents at boron. The C-N-B bond angle displays a great flexibility, ranging from 131° to near-linear 176°, the narrowest angles being observed for NMe2-substituted derivatives and the widest angles for highly sterically demanding substituents. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the electronic structures of the anionic CAAI ligand compared to unsaturated and saturated N-heterocyclic iminate (NHI) ligands show that the former is the best σ donor of the three but less π-donating than the unsaturated NHI. Nevertheless, the linear (CAAI)BH2 complex displays somewhat stronger C-N and N-B π bonding than the corresponding ((S)NHI)BH2 complexes.

Abstract
Carbenes, once considered laboratory curiosities, now serve as powerful tools in the chemical and material sciences. To date, all stable singlet carbenes are single-site ambiphiles. Here we describe the synthesis of a carbene which is a carbon-based dual ambiphile (both single-site and dual-site). The key is to employ imino substituents derived from a cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene (CAAC), which imparts a 1,3-dipolar character to the carbene. Its dual ambiphilic nature is consistent with the ability to activate simple organic molecules in both 1,1- and 1,3-fashion. Furthermore, its 1,3-ambiphilicity facilitates an unprecedented reversible intramolecular dearomative [3 + 2] cycloaddition with a proximal arene substituent, giving the carbene the ability to "mask" itself as an air-stable cycloadduct. We perceive that the concept of dual ambiphilicity opens a new dimension for future carbene chemistry, expanding the repertoire of applications beyond that known for classical single-site ambiphilic carbenes.

Abstract
A novel nontransient acyclic iminosilylene (1), bearing a bulky super silyl group (-SitBu3) and N-heterocyclic imine ligand with a methylated backbone, was prepared and isolated. The methylated backbone is the feature of 1 that distinguishes it from the previously reported nonisolable iminosilylenes, as it prevents the intramolecular silylene center insertion into an aromatic C-C bond of an aryl substituent. Instead, 1 exhibits an intermolecular Büchner-ring-expansion-type reactivity; the silylene is capable of dearomatization of benzene and its derivatives, giving the corresponding silicon analogs of cycloheptatrienes, i.e. silepins, featuring seven-membered SiC6 rings with nearly planar geometry. The ring expansion reactions of 1 with benzene and 1,4-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzene are reversible. Similar reactions of 1 with N-heteroarenes (pyridine and DMAP) proceed more rapidly and irreversibly forming the corresponding azasilepins, also with nearly planar seven-membered SiNC5 rings. DFT calculations reveal an ambiphilic nature of 1 that allows the intermolecular aromatic C-C bond insertion to occur. Additional computational studies, which elucidate the inherent reactivity of 1, the role of the substituent effect, and reaction mechanisms behind the ring expansion transformations, are presented.

Abstract
The germanium iron carbonyl complex 3 was prepared by the reaction of dimeric chloro(imino)germylene [IPrNGeCl]2 (IPrN=bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-iminato) with one equivalent of Collman's reagent (Na2 Fe(CO)4 ) at room temperature. Similarly, the reaction of chloro(imino)stannylene [IPrNSnCl]2 with Na2 Fe(CO)4 (1 equiv) resulted in the Fe(CO)4 -bridged bis(stannylene) complex 4. We observed reversible formation of bis(tetrylene) and tetrylene-tetrylone character in complexes 3 vs. 5 and 4 vs. 6, which was supported by DFT calculations. Moreover, the Li/Sn/Fe trimetallic complex 12 has been isolated from the reaction of [IPrNSnCl]2 with cyclopentadienyl iron dicarbonyl anion. The computational analysis further rationalizes the reduction pathway from these chlorotetrylenes to the corresponding complexes.

Abstract
A series of low-valent lead(II) species, i.e., plumbylenes and plumbyliumylidenes supported by an N,N'-di-tert-butyliminophosphonamide ligand, have been synthesized. Chloroplumbylene [Ph2P(NtBu)2PbCl] (1) was readily prepared by the reaction of the corresponding lithium iminophosphonamide and PbCl2 in THF. The substitution reaction of 1 with KN(SiMe3)2 in THF afforded the corresponding aminoplumbylene [Ph2P(NtBu)2PbN(SiMe3)2] (2) in the form of colorless crystals. The structures of these plumbylenes in the solid state and in solution were exhaustively characterized using multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. In the crystalline state, 1 adopts a nearly linear polymeric structure in the direction of the c axis via Pb-Cl bonds, with alternating four-membered PbN2P rings. The chloride-abstraction reaction of 1 using Na[B(C6F5)4] in fluorobenzene proceeded efficiently at ambient temperature to furnish plumbyliumylidene [Ph2P(NtBu)2Pb:]+ (3+), which was isolated as the air-sensitive yellow borate salt 3[B(C6F5)4]. Plumbyliumylidene 3[B(C6F5)4] acts as a Lewis acid catalyst for the hydroboration of benzophenone and benzaldehyde at catalyst loadings of as low as 0.1 mol % under ambient conditions. Furthermore, the details of the reaction mechanism are discussed on the basis of the results of DFT calculations.

Abstract
The ambiphilic Ge(II) and Sn(II) cationic species have been reported to be isolated through kinetic or thermodynamic stabilizations. Nonetheless, steric congestion or excessive coordination of donor atoms to the cationic center concurrently disfavors its prompt reactivity. Our research in this field revolves around the utilization of structurally non-rigid bis(imine) based tetradentate supporting ligands for the stabilization of Ge(II) and Sn(II) cationic species. Such E(II) cationic systems have been advantaged due to inherent flexibility present at the ligand backbone allowing disposal of E(II) orbitals through geometric rearrangements for further reactivity. The bifunctionality present in the ligand enables the first examples of Ge(II) bis-monocations. Furthermore, the redox-active nature of the ligand encourages participation in chemical transformations. In this personal account we have provided a detailed discussion of our published work in this direction in the last five years.

Abstract
Due to their transition metal‐like behavior divalent group 14 compounds bear huge potential for their application in bond activation reactions and catalysis. Here we report on detailed computational studies on the use of ylide‐substituted tetrylenes in the activation of dihydrogen and phenol. A series of acyclic and cyclic ylidyltetrylenes featuring various α‐substituents with different σ‐ and π‐donating capabilities have been investigated which demonstrate that particularly π‐accepting boryl groups lead to beneficial properties and low barriers for single‐site activation reactions, above all in the case of silylenes. In contrast, for the thermodynamically more stable germylenes and stannylenes an alternative mechanism involving the active participation of the ylide ligand in the E−H bond (E=H or PhO) activation process by addition across the element carbon linkage was found to be energetically favored. Furthermore, the boryl substituted tetrylenes allowed for a further activation pathway involving the active participation of the boron element bond. These cooperative mechanisms are especially attractive for the heavier cyclic ylidyltetrylenes in which the loss of the protonated ylide group is prevented due to the cyclic framework. Overall, the present studies suggest that cyclic ylide‐substituted germylenes and stannylenes bear huge potential for cooperative bond activations at mild conditions which should be experimentally addressed in the future.

Abstract
The N-heterocyclic germylenes and stannylenes LSi(NAr)2EX (L = PhC(NtBu)2, Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3; E = Ge, Sn; X = Cl, CF3SO3, BPh4) supported by the bulky silaamidinate ligand [LSi(NAr)2]- have been synthesized and fully characterized. The germylene triflate LSi(NAr)2GeOTf (3b) and dimeric borate [LSi(NAr)2Ge]2ClBPh4 (3a) enabled highly regio- and chemoselective catalytic hydroboration of pyridines and may represent the most active catalytic system for the transformation. DFT calculations disclosed that the cationic germylene [LSi(NAr)2Ge]+ with a low-lying LUMO energy initiated the catalytic process. In contrast, the analogous amidinate germylene triflates are almost inactive, indicating the silaamidinate ligand is essential for the stabilization of cationic species.

Abstract
Dinuclear low-valent compounds of the heavy main group elements are rare species owing to their intrinsic reactivity. However, they represent desirable target molecules due to their unusual bonding situations as well as applications in bond activations and materials synthesis. The isolation of such compounds usually requires the use of substituents that provide sufficient stability and synthetic access. Herein, we report on the use of strongly donating ylide-substituents to access low-valent dinuclear group 14 compounds. The ylides not only impart steric and electronic stabilization, but also allow facile synthesis via transfer of an ylide from tetrylene precursors of type R Y2 E to ECl2 (E=Ge, Sn; R Y=TolSO2 (PR3 )C with R=Ph, Cy). This method allowed the isolation of dinuclear complexes amongst a germanium analogue of a vinyl cation, [(Ph Y)2 GeGe(Ph Y)]+ with an electronic structure best described as a germylene-stabilized GeII cation and a ylide(chloro)digermene [Cy Y(Cl)GeGe(Cl)Cy Y] with an unusually unsymmetrical structure.

Abstract
In this work, the change of reactivity induced by the introduction of two para‐ethynyl substituents (CCSi(iPr)3 or CCH) to the organic electron‐donor 1,2,4,5‐tetrakis(tetramethylguanidino)‐benzene is evaluated. The redox‐properties and redox‐state dependent fluorescence are evaluated, and dinuclear CuI and CuII complexes synthesized. The Lewis‐acidic B(C6F5)3 substitutes the proton of the ethynyl −CCH groups to give new anionic −CCB(C6F5)3− substituents, leading eventually to a novel dianionic strong electron donor in its diprotonated form. Its two‐electron oxidation with dioxygen in the presence of a copper catalyst yields the first redox‐active guanidine that is neutral (instead of cationic) in its oxidized form.

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 germylone dimNHCGe (5, dimNHC = diimino N-heterocyclic carbene) was successfully prepared via the reduction of the germanium cation [dimNHCGeCl]+ with KC8. The molecular structure of 5 was unambiguously established by both NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The reactivity of 5 was investigated, revealing that it undergoes oxidative addition of HCl, CH3I, and PhI, accompanied by an unusual migration of the H, Me, and Ph groups from germanium to the carbene ligand. Related chemistry was also observed with C5F5N, which results in the migration of the fluorinated pyridine moiety to the carbene ligand. Compound 5 also undergoes cycloaddition with tetrachloro-o-benzoquinone to afford a Ge(IV) adduct.

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
A cyclic (alkyl)(amino)carbene (CAAC) has been shown to react with a covalent azide similar to the Staudinger reaction. The reaction of Me CAAC with trimethylsilyl azide afforded the N-silylated 2-iminopyrrolidine (Me CAAC=NSiMe3 ), which was fully characterized. This compound undergoes hydrolysis to afford the 2-iminopyrrolidine and trimethylsiloxane which co-crystallize as a hydrogen-bonded adduct. The N-silylated 2-iminopyrrolidine was used to transfer the novel pyrrolidine-2-iminato ligand onto both main-group and transition-metal centers. The reaction of the tetrabromodiborane bis(dimethyl sulfide) adduct with two equivalents of Me CAAC=NSiMe3 afforded the disubstituted diborane. The reaction of Me CAAC=NSiMe3 with TiCl4 and CpTiCl3 afforded Me CAAC=NTiCl3 and Me CAAC=NTiCl2 Cp, respectively.

Abstract
The diiminodiphosphine (Lim) and diaminodiphosphines (l-NH and l-NMe) with a bifunctional PNNP ligand framework have been employed to host two [GeCl]+ units leading to the formation of bis(chlorogermyliumylidene) 1-3, respectively. The synthetic route involves a 1 : 2 stoichiometric reaction between the PNNP ligand and GeCl2·dioxane and the subsequent addition of two equivalents of chloride abstracting agent. Compound 1 is unstable towards coordinating solvents and Lewis bases, resulting in the displacement of the GeCl unit and the formation of rearranged products 4 and 5. However, the diaminodiphosphine coordinated Ge(ii) bis(monocation)s 2 and 3 proved to be stable and revealed their electrophilic behaviour towards the Lewis bases studied.

Abstract
The preparation of the first stable diylide‐substituted stannylene and germylene (Y2E, with E=Ge, Sn and Y=[PPh3‐C‐SO2Tol]−) is reported. The synthesis is easily accomplished in one step from the sulfonyl‐substituted metalated ylide YNa and the corresponding ECl2 precursors. Y2Ge and Y2Sn exhibit unusual structures in the solid state and in solution, in which the three adjacent lone pairs in the C‐E‐C linkage are arranged coplanar to each other. As shown by DFT studies, this bonding situation is preferred over the typical π‐donation from the ligands into the empty p‐orbital at the metal due to the strong anion‐stabilizing ability of the sulfonyl groups in the ylide backbone and their additional coordination to the metal. The alignment of the three lone pairs leads to a remarkable boost of the HOMO energy and thus of the donor strengths of the tetrylenes. Hence, Y2Ge and Y2Sn become stronger donors than their diamino or diaryl congeners and comparable to cyclic alkyl(amino)carbenes. First reactivity studies confirm the high reactivity of Y2Ge and Y2Sn, which for example undergo an intramolecular C−H activation reaction via metal–ligand cooperation.

Abstract
Introduced here is a new type of strongly donating N-heterocyclic boryloxy (NHBO) ligand, [(HCDippN)2 BO]- (Dipp=2,6-diisopropylphenyl), which is isoelectronic with the well-known N-heterocyclic iminato (NHI) donor class. This 1,3,2-diazaborole functionalized oxy ligand has been used to stabilize the first acyclic two-coordinate dioxysilylene and its Ge, Sn, and Pb congeners, thereby presenting the first complete series of heavier group 14 dioxycarbene analogues. All four compounds have been characterized by X-ray crystallography and density-functional theory, enabling analysis of periodic trends: the potential for the [(HCDippN)2 BO]- ligand to subtly vary its electronic-donor capabilities is revealed by snapshots showing the gradual evolution of arene π coordination on going from Si to Pb.

Abstract
A borane B(C6 F5 )3 -catalyzed metathesis reaction between the Si-C bond in the cyclic (alkyl)(amino)germylene (CAAGe) 1 and the Si-H bond in a silane (R3 SiH; 2) is reported. Mechanistic studies propose that the initial step of the reaction involves Si-H bond activation to furnish an ionic species [1-SiR3 ]+ [HB(C6 F5 )3 ]- , from which [Me3 Si]+ [HB(C6 F5 )3 ]- and an azagermole intermediate are generated. The former yields Me3 SiH concomitant with the regeneration of B(C6 F5 )3 whereas the latter undergoes isomerization to afford CAAGes bearing various silyl groups on the carbon atom next to the germylene center. This strategy allows the straightforward synthesis of eight new CAAGes starting from 1.

Abstract
Bis(chlorogermyliumylidene) 2 has been strategically obtained within redox-active bis(α-iminopyridine). Metal-free reduction of 2 followed by protonation led to elusive 2,3-di(pyridin-2-yl)piperazine with meso-stereoselectivity. Formation of persistent triplet diradicals upon reduction and isolation of piperazine stabilized Ge(ii) dication intermediates provide convincing evidence for the crucial role of [GeCl]+ units in reductive cyclization.

Abstract
Reversibility is fundamental for transition metal catalysis, but equally for main group chemistry and especially low-valent silicon compounds, the interplay between oxidative addition and reductive elimination is key for a potential catalytic cycle. Herein, we report a highly reactive acyclic iminosilylsilylene 1, which readily performs an intramolecular insertion into a C═C bond of its aromatic ligand framework to give silacycloheptatriene (silepin) 2. UV-vis studies of this Si(IV) compound indicated a facile transformation back to Si(II) at elevated temperatures, further supported by density functional theory calculations and experimentally demonstrated by isolation of a silylene-borane adduct 3 following addition of B(C6F5)3. This tendency to undergo reductive elimination was exploited in the investigation of silepin 2 as a synthetic equivalent of silylene in the activation of small molecules. In fact, the first monomeric, four-coordinate silicon carbonate complex 4 was isolated and fully characterized in the reaction with carbon dioxide under mild conditions. Additionally, the exposure of 2 to ethylene or molecular hydrogen gave silirane 5 and Si(IV) dihydride 6, respectively.
