Abstract
Photoactive metal complexes employing Earth-abundant metal ions are a key to sustainable photophysical and photochemical applications. We exploit the effects of an inversion center and ligand non-innocence to tune the luminescence and photochemistry of the excited state of the [CrN6 ] chromophore [Cr(tpe)2 ]3+ with close to octahedral symmetry (tpe=1,1,1-tris(pyrid-2-yl)ethane). [Cr(tpe)2 ]3+ exhibits the longest luminescence lifetime (τ=4500 μs) reported up to date for a molecular polypyridyl chromium(III) complex together with a very high luminescence quantum yield of Φ=8.2 % at room temperature in fluid solution. Furthermore, the tpe ligands in [Cr(tpe)2 ]3+ are redox non-innocent, leading to reversible reductive chemistry. The excited state redox potential and lifetime of [Cr(tpe)2 ]3+ surpass those of the classical photosensitizer [Ru(bpy)3 ]2+ (bpy=2,2'-bipyridine) enabling energy transfer (to oxygen) and photoredox processes (with azulene and tri(n-butyl)amine).

Abstract
The iron(II) complexes [Fe(L)(MeCN)3 ](SO3 CF3 )2 (L are two derivatives of tris(2-pyridyl)-based ligands) have been synthesized as models for cysteine dioxygenase (CDO). The molecular structure of one of the complexes exhibits octahedral coordination geometry and the Fe-Npy bond lengths [1.953(4)-1.972(4) Å] are similar to those in the Cys-bound FeII -CDO; Fe-NHis : 1.893-2.199 Å. The iron(II) centers of the model complexes exhibit relatively high FeIII/II redox potentials (E1/2 =0.988-1.380 V vs. ferrocene/ferrocenium electrode, Fc/Fc+ ), within the range for O2 activation and typical for the corresponding nonheme iron enzymes. The reaction of in situ generated [Fe(L)(MeCN)(SPh)]+ with excess O2 in acetonitrile (MeCN) yields selectively the doubly oxygenated phenylsulfinic acid product. Isotopic labeling studies using 18 O2 confirm the incorporation of both oxygen atoms of O2 into the product. Kinetic and preliminary DFT studies reveal the involvement of an FeIII peroxido intermediate with a rhombic S= 1 / 2 FeIII center (687-696 nm; g≈2.46-2.48, 2.13-2.15, 1.92-1.94), similar to the spectroscopic signature of the low-spin Cys-bound FeIII CDO (650 nm, g≈2.47, 2.29, 1.90). The proposed FeIII peroxido intermediates have been trapped, and the O-O stretching frequencies are in the expected range (approximately 920 and 820 cm-1 for the alkyl- and hydroperoxido species, respectively). The model complexes have a structure similar to that of the enzyme and structural aspects as well as the reactivity are discussed.

Abstract
Deprotonation of ligand-appended alkoxyl groups in mononuclear copper(II) complexes of N,O ligands L1 and L2 , gave dinuclear complexes sharing symmetrical Cu2 O2 cores. Molecular structures of these mono- and binuclear complexes have been characterized by XRD, and their electronic structures by UV/Vis, 1 H NMR, EPR and DFT; moreover, catalytic performance as models of catechol oxidase was studied. The binuclear complexes with anti-ferromagnetically coupled copper(II) centers are moderately active in quinone formation from 3,5-di-tert-butyl-catechol under the established conditions of oxygen saturation, but are strongly activated when additional dioxygen is administered during catalytic turnover. This unforeseen and unprecedented effect is attributed to increased maximum reaction rates vmax , whereas the substrate affinity KM remains unaffected. Oxygen administration is capable of (partially) removing limitations to turnover caused by product inhibition. Because product inhibition is generally accepted to be a major limitation of catechol oxidase models, we think that our observations will be applicable more widely.

Abstract
Abstract
Geometric information about ion migration (diffusion pathways) and knowledge about the associated energy landscape (migration activation barriers) are essential cornerstones for a comprehensive understanding of lithium transport in solids. Although many lithium-ion conductors are discussed, developed, and already used as energy-storage materials, fundamental knowledge is often still lacking. In this microreview, we give an introduction to the experimental and computational methods used in our subproject within the research unit FOR 1277, “Mobility of Lithium Ions in Solids (molife)”. These comprise, amongst others, neutron diffraction, topological analyses (procrystal-void analysis and Voronoi–Dirichlet partitioning), examination of scattering-length density maps reconstructed via maximum-entropy methods (MEM), analysis of probability-density functions (PDFs) and one-particle potentials (OPPs), as well as climbing-image nudged-elastic-band (cNEB) computations at density-functional theory (DFT) level. The results of our studies using these approaches on ternary lithium oxides and sulfides with different conduction characteristics (fast/slow) and dimensionalities (one-/two-/three-dimensional) are summarized, focusing on the close orbit of the research unit. Not only did the investigations elucidate the lithium-diffusion pathways and migration activation energies in the studied compounds, but we also established a versatile set of methods for the evaluation of data of differing quality.
