Abstract
A μ-oxo diiron complex, featuring the pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide-based thiazoline-derived redox-active ligand, H2L (H2L = N2,N6-bis(4,5-dihydrothiazol-2-yl)pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide), was synthesized and thoroughly characterized. [FeIII-(μ-O)-FeIII] showed electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction activity in the presence of different organic acids of varying pKa values in dimethylformamide. Through electrochemical analysis, we found that [FeIII-(μ-O)-FeIII] is a precatalyst that undergoes concerted two-electron reduction to generate an active catalyst. Fourier transform infrared spectrum of reduced species and density functional theory (DFT) investigation indicate that the active catalyst contains a bridged hydroxo unit which serves as a local proton source for the Fe(III) hydride intermediate to release H2. We propose that in this active catalyst, the thiazolinium moiety acts as a proton-transferring group. Additionally, under sufficiently strong acidic conditions, bridged oxygen gets protonated before two-electron reduction. In the presence of exogenous acids of varying strengths, it displays electro-assisted catalytic response at a distinct applied potential. Stepwise electron-transfer and protonation reactions on the metal center and the ligand were studied through DFT to understand the thermodynamically favorable pathways. An ECEC or EECC mechanism is proposed depending on the acid strength and applied potential.

Abstract
The prototypical drug carrier [CoII(L1)Cl]PF6 (1), where L1 is a tripodal amine bound to pyridine and methyl-imidazoles, had its electrocatalytic water splitting activity studied under different pH conditions. This species contains a high-spin 3d7 CoII metal center, and is capable of generating both H2 from water reduction and O2 from water oxidation. Turnover numbers reach 390 after 3 h for water reduction. Initial water oxidation activity is molecular, with TONs of 71 at pH 7 and 103 at pH 11.5. The results reveal that species 1 can undergo several redox transformations, including reduction to the 3d8 CoI species that precedes a LS3d6 hydride for water reduction, as well as nominal CoIVO and CoIII-OOH species required for water oxidation. Post-catalytic analyses confirm the molecular nature of reduction and support initial molecular activity for oxidation.

Abstract
A pyrazole-based ligand substituted with terpyridine groups at the 3 and 5 positions has been synthesized to form the dinuclear cobalt complex 1, that electrocatalytically reduces carbon dioxide (CO2 ) to carbon monoxide (CO) in the presence of Brønsted acids in DMF. Chemical, electrochemical and UV-vis spectro-electrochemical studies under inert atmosphere indicate pairwise reduction processes of complex 1. Infrared spectro-electrochemical studies under CO2 and CO atmosphere are consistent with a reduced CO-containing dicobalt complex which results from the electroreduction of CO2 . In the presence of trifluoroethanol (TFE), electrocatalytic studies revealed single-site mechanism with up to 94 % selectivity towards CO formation when 1.47 M TFE were present, at -1.35 V vs. Saturated Calomel Electrode in DMF (0.39 V overpotential). The low faradaic efficiencies obtained (<50 %) are attributed to the generation of CO-containing species formed during the electrocatalytic process, which inhibit the reduction of CO2 .

Abstract
A synthetic route has been developed for a series of 3d homobimetallic complexes of Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu using three different pyridyldiimine and pyridyldialdimine macrocyclic ligands with ring sizes of 18, 20, and 22 atoms. Crystallographic analyses indicate that while the distances between the metals can be modulated by the size of the macrocycle pocket, the flexibility in the alkyl linkers used to construct the macrocycles enables the ligand to adjust the orientation of the PD(A)I fragments in response to the geometry of the [M2(μ-Cl)2]2+ core, particularly with respect to Jahn-Teller distortions. Analyses by UV-vis spectroscopy and SQUID magnetometry revealed deviations in the properties [M2(μ-Cl)2]2+-containing complexes bound by standard mononucleating ligands, highlighting the ability of macrocycles to use ring size to control the magnetic interactions of pseudo-octahedral, high-spin metal centers.

Abstract
We report on the synthesis, redox, electronic, and catalytic behavior of two new cobalt(iii) complexes, namely [CoIII(L1)MeOH] (1) and [CoIII(L2)MeOH] (2). These species contain nitro-rich, phenolate-based pentadentate ligands and present dramatically distinct properties associated with the position in which the -NO2 substituents are installed. Species 1 displays nitro-substituted phenolates, and exhibits irreversible redox response and negligible catalytic activity, whereas 2 has fuctionalized phenylene moieties, shows much improved redox reversibility and catalytic proton reduction activity at low overpotentials. A concerted experimental and theoretical approach sheds some light on these drastic differences.
