Abstract
Protolysis of AlMe3 or AlBui3 with 2-diisopropylphosphinopyrrole (1) yields molecules containing two flanking phosphines and a central Al-Me (2-Me), Al-iBu (2-iBu), or Al-H (2-H) unit. The reactions of 2-Me with [L2MCl]2 (L = cyclooctene or 1/2 1,5-cyclooctadiene and M = Rh or Ir) in the presence of pyridine produces PAlClP pincer complexes (3-Rh and 3-Ir) with Al-Cl and M-Me bonds. The analogous reaction of a mixture of 2-iBu and 2-H with [L2MCl]2 and pyridine resulted in the formation of analogous Rh-H (4-Rh) and Ir-H (4-Ir) complexes. Treatment of 3-Rh with NaBEt3H produced compound 5-Rh with an Al-Me and a Rh-H bond; the analogous reaction of 3-Ir did not result in a clean product. 4-Ir accepted an equivalent of H2 to produce 6-Ir with two terminal Ir-H bonds and one bridging Al-H-Ir moiety, whereas 4-Rh did not react with H2. The density functional theoretical treatment is in accord with this finding, highlights the likely mechanism for the H2 addition, and supports the bonding picture in 6-Ir arising from NMR and X-ray diffraction (XRD) observations. Spectroscopic data and XRD studies are consistent with distorted square-pyramidal structures (about Rh or Ir) for compounds 3-5, with an alane occupying the apical position. Complexes 3 and 4 possess some of the shortest known Rh-Al or Ir-Al distances.

Abstract
The present work reports a DFT-based mechanistic investigation of aryl C-O bond activation in anisole catalysed by a Rh-Al pincer-type complex at room temperature. The study is extended to analogues Rh-E complexes based on Group 13 elements (E=B/Ga). Our results show a preference for the heterolytic cleavage pathway over oxidative addition in the C-O bond activation. The calculated barriers range from 16 to 36 kcal/mol, following the order: E=Al

Abstract
Pyridine is a crucial heterocyclic scaffold that is widely found in organic chemistry, medicines, natural products, and functional materials. In spite of the discovery of several methods for the synthesis of functionalized pyridines or their integration into an organic molecule, new methodologies for the direct functionalization of pyridine scaffolds have been developed during the past two decades. In addition, transition-metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization and rare earth metal-catalyzed reactions have flourished over the past two decades in the development of functionalized organic molecules of concern. In this review, we discuss recent achievements in the transition-metal and rare earth metal-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization of pyridine and look into the mechanisms involved.

Abstract
Despite the long history of research in transition metal (TM) complexes, the study of TM-aluminyl complexes is still in its early stage of development. It is expected that the presence of an electropositive Al donor atom would open up new possibilities in TM complex reactivity, and indeed TM-aluminyl has shown an early sign of success in small-molecule activation. On the other hand, the existing reports on TM-aluminyl reactivity are often explained to readers with different understanding on individual cases, and a general picture of TM-aluminyl reactivity is still not available. In this work, we have attempted to provide a systematic picture to explain some early explorations in this field, specifically a series of recently reported heteroallene insertion reactions involving unsupported TM-aluminyl complexes. Through density functional theory calculations of a number of TM-aluminyl complexes, covering both Au and Cu centers, we found that their reactivity against heteroallenes (including CO2 and carbodiimides) is mostly based on the strong nucleophilicity of the TM-Al σ-bond.

Abstract
N-H σ-bond activation of alkylamine by Ni(PCy3) was investigated using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. When simple alkylamine NHMe2 is a reactant, both concerted oxidative addition in Ni(PCy3)(NHMe2) and ligand-to-ligand H transfer reaction in Ni(PCy3)(C2H4)(NHMe2) are endergonic and need a high activation energy. When NH(Me)(Bs) (Bs = SO2Ph, a model of tosyl group used in experiments) is a reactant, both reactions are exergonic and occur easily with a much smaller activation energy. The much larger reactivity of NH(Me)(Bs) than that of NHMe2 results from the stronger Ni-N(Me)(Bs) bond than the Ni-NMe2 bond and the presence of the Ni-O bonding interaction between the Bs group and the Ni atom in the product. N-Heterocyclic carbene, 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene (IPr), is computationally predicted to be better than PCy3 because the Ni-NMe2 and Ni-N(Me)(Bs) bonds in the IPr complex are stronger, respectively, than those of the PCy3 complex. The introduction of the electron-withdrawing Bs group to the N atom of amine and the use of IPr as a ligand are recommended for the N-H σ-bond activation. The C-H σ-bond activations of benzene via the oxidative addition and the ligand-to-ligand H transfer reaction were also investigated here for comparison with the N-H σ-bond activation. The differences between the C-H σ-bond activation of benzene and the N-H σ-bond activation of these amines are discussed in terms of the N-H, C-H, Ni-Ph, and Ni-NMe2, and Ni-N(Me)(Bs) bond energies and back-donation to benzene from the Ni atom.

Abstract
The electronic properties of aluminyl anions have been reported to be strictly related to those of carbenes, which are well-known to be easily tunable via selected structural modifications imposed on their backbone. Since peculiar reactivity of gold-aluminyl complexes towards carbon dioxide has been reported, leading to insertion of CO2 into the Au-Al bond, in this work the electronic structure and reactivity of Au-Al complexes with different aluminyl scaffolds have been systematically studied and compared to carbene analogues. The analyses reveal that, instead, aluminyls and carbenes display a very different behavior when bound to gold, with the aluminyls forming an electron-sharing and weakly polarized Au-Al bond, which turns out to be poorly modulated by structural modifications of the ligand. The reactivity of gold-aluminyl complexes towards CO2 shows, both qualitatively and quantitatively, similar reaction mechanisms, reflecting the scarce tunability of their electronic structure and bond nature. This work provides further insights and perspectives on the properties of the aluminyl anions and their behavior as coordination ligands.

Abstract
We have developed a C2-selective mono-silylation of a variety of pyridines using a Rh-Al complex. Both the site- and mono-selectivity are controlled via the pyridine coordination to the Lewis-acidic Al center prior to the activation of the pyridine C(2)-H bond at the proximal Rh center. A reaction mechanism is proposed based on several mechanistic studies, including the isolation of a (2-pyridyl)silylrhodium intermediate.

We report the catalytic reduction of a C-O bond and the borylation by a rhodium complex bearing an X-type PAlP pincer ligand. We have revealed the reaction mechanism based on the characterization of the reaction intermediate and deuterium-labeling experiments. Notably, this novel catalytic system shows steric-hindrance-dependent chemoselectivity that is distinct from conventional Ni-based catalysts and suggests a new strategy for selective C-O bond activation by heterobimetallic catalysis.

Abstract
A di(o-tolyl)borylgold complex was synthesized via the metathesis reaction of a gold alkoxide with tetra(o-tolyl)diborane(4). The resulting diarylborylgold complex exhibited a Lewis acidic boron center and a characteristic visible absorption that arises from its HOMO–LUMO excitation, which is narrower than that of a previously reported dioxyborylgold complex. The diarylborylgold complex reacted with isocyanide in a stepwise fashion to afford single- and double-insertion products and a C–C coupled product. Reactions of this diarylborylgold complex with C

O/N double bond species furnished addition products under concomitant formation of Au–C and B–O/N bonds, which suggests nucleophilic reactivity of the gold metal center. DFT calculations provided details of the underlying reaction mechanism, which involves an initial coordination of the CO/N bond to the boron vacant p-orbital of the diarylboryl ligand followed by a migration of the gold atom from the tetracoordinate sp3-hybridized boron center, which is analogous to the reactivity of the conventional sp3-hybridized borate species. The DFT calculations also suggested a stepwise mechanism for the reaction of this diarylborylgold complex with isocyanide, which afforded three different reaction products depending on the applied reaction conditions. A di(o-tolyl)borylgold complex added to CO/N double bond to form Au–C and B–O/N bonds. DFT calculations revealed a two-step mechanism consisting of the coordination of O/N atom to B atom followed by nucleophilic migration of Au atom.![]()

Abstract
The recently synthesized rhodium-aluminum bimetallic complex Rh(PAlP) 1 (PAlP = pincer-type diphosphino-aluminyl ligand Al{[N(C6H4)]2NMe}[CH2P(iPr)2]2) containing a unique Rh-Al direct bond exhibits coordination flexibility because Rh and Al can play the role of coordination site for the substrate. DFT calculations of NH3, CO, and C2H4 adducts with 1 show that the Rh atom is favorable for all these substrate but the Al atom is as favorable as the Rh atom for NH3 and unfavorable for CO and C2H4. NH3 and CO prefer the coordination at the Rh-axial (Ax) site to the Rh-equatorial (Eq) site, but C2H4 prefers coordination at the Rh-Eq site to the Rh-Ax site. Consequently, two CO and C2H4 molecules coordinate with 1 at the Rh-Ax and Rh-Eq sites to afford trigonal bipyramidal complexes Rh(PAlP)(CO)2 and Rh(PAlP)(C2H4)2, which is consistent with the experimental observation of Rh(PAlP)(CO)2. Energy decomposition analysis reveals that an electrostatic term plays an important role for NH3 coordination with the Al atom of 1, because Al has a significantly large positive charge and NH3 has a much negatively charged N atom and exhibits a considerably negative electrostatic potential at the Al position. In B and Ga analogues Rh(PBP) 2 and Rh(PGaP) 3, B and Ga atoms are not good for CO and C2H4 like the Al atom in 1. NH3 adducts with 2 and 3 at the B and Ga sites are less stable than those adducts at the Rh-Ax site unlike the NH3 adduct with 1 at the Al site. This difference in the NH3 adduct between Rh(PAlP) and others (Rh(PBP) and Rh(PGaP)) arises from much less positive charges of B and Ga and a smaller atomic size of B than that of Al. These results indicate that the significantly large electropositive nature and appropriate atomic size of Al are responsible for the characteristic coordination flexibility of Rh(PAlP).

Abstract
Recent development in catalytic application of transition metal complexes having an M-E bond (E = main group metal or metalloid element), which is stabilized by a multidentate ligand, is summarized. Main group metal and metalloid supporting ligands furnish unusual electronic and steric environments and molecular functions to transition metals, which are not easily available with standard organic supporting ligands such as phosphines and amines. These characteristics often realize remarkable catalytic activity, unique product selectivity, and new molecular transformations. This perspective demonstrates the promising utility of main group metal and metalloid compounds as a new class of supporting ligands for transition metal catalysts in synthetic chemistry.

Abstract
The synthesis and structural analyses of pincer-type iridium complexes having gallyl- and indyl-metalloligands were achieved utilizing 2,5-bis(6-phosphino-2-pyridyl)pyrrolide as a new scaffold for metal-metal bonds. A BH3-coordinated PInP-Ir dihydride complex was also developed as an equivalent to an iridium dihydride complex, which could be a useful catalyst for synthetic reactions.
