Abstract
Group 13 metal complexes have emerged as powerful catalysts for transforming CO2 into added-value products. However, direct comparisons of reactivity between Al, Ga, and In catalysts are rare. We report aluminum (1), gallium (2), and indium (3) complexes supported by a half-salen H[PNNO] ligand with a pendent phosphine donor and investigate their activity as catalysts for the copolymerization of CO2 and cyclohexene oxide. In solution, the P-donor is dissociated for the Al and Ga complexes while for the In complex it exhibits hemilabile behavior. The indium complex shows higher conversion and selectivity than the Al or Ga analogues. The mechanism of the reaction was studied by NMR and FTIR spectroscopy experiments as well as structural characterization of off-cycle catalytic intermediate indium trichloride complex [(PNNO)InCl3][TBA] (4). This study highlights the impact of a hemilabile phosphine group on group 13 metals and provides a detailed analysis of the initiation step in CO2/epoxide copolymerization reactions.

Abstract
Dialumenes are neutral AlI compounds with Al=Al multiple bonds. We report the isolation of an amidophosphine-supported dialumene. Our X-ray crystallographic, spectroscopic, and computational DFT analyses reveal a long and extreme trans-bent Al=Al bond with a low dissociation energy and bond order. In solution, the dialumene can dissociate into monomeric AlI species. Reactivity studies reveal two modes of reaction: as dialumene or as aluminyl monomers.

Abstract
This review serves to document advances in the synthesis, versatile bonding, and reactivity of molecular main group metal hydrides within Groups 1, 2, and 12-16. Particular attention will be given to the emerging use of said hydrides in the rapidly expanding field of Main Group element-mediated catalysis. While this review is comprehensive in nature, focus will be given to research appearing in the open literature since 2001.

Abstract
The mechanism of the aluminum-mediated hydroboration of terminal alkynes was investigated using a series of novel aluminum amidinate hydride and alkyl complexes bearing symmetric and asymmetric ligands. The new aluminum complexes were fully characterized and found to facilitate the formation of the (E)-vinylboronate hydroboration product, with rates and orders of reaction linked to complex size and stability. Kinetic analysis and stoichiometric reactions were used to elucidate the mechanism, which we propose to proceed via the initial formation of an Al-borane adduct. Additionally, the most unstable complex was found to promote decomposition of the pinacolborane substrate to borane (BH3), which can then proceed to catalyze the reaction. This mechanism is in contrast to previously reported aluminum hydride-catalyzed hydroboration reactions, which are proposed to proceed via the initial formation of an aluminum acetylide, or by hydroalumination to form a vinylboronate ester as the first step in the catalytic cycle.

Abstract
The preparation of group 13 hydride complexes supported by N,N',N'-substituted 1,2-ethanediamines is reported. Dihydridoalanes LAlH2, for which the aggregation behaviour in solution and in the solid state is modulated by the steric bulk of the aryl substituent, readily react with elemental sulphur affording dinuclear aluminium sulphide complexes. Chloridohydrido trielanes LEHCl (E = B, Al, Ga) have been synthesized as well starting from the hydrochloride salts of the protio-ligands and the chlorido substituent within LAlHCl is readily replaced using Li[N(SiMe3)2]. Depending on the steric bulk of the ligand, the chloridohydrido gallane gives rise to a dinuclear gallium(ii) complex upon heating. All twelve complexes reported in here have been fully characterized and the solid-state structure of eleven complexes has been examined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis.

Abstract
Using a diamido-bis(amidate) titanium precatalyst, the hydroamination of alkynylphosphines afforded phosphinoenamine products. After reduction, 2-aminophosphines are prepared in excellent yield and on gram scale. A broad variety of alkynylphosphines and primary amines with different electronic and steric features are tolerated in this sequential transformation, enabling the rapid assembly of a collection of ligands. Additionally, intermediate phosphinoenamines can be used directly as proligands for coordination to transition metals using protonolysis or salt metathesis reactions. These transformations result in easy-to-use one pot protocols to prepare metal P,N-complexes for catalysis or small molecule activation.

Abstract
Oxidative addition and reductive elimination are defining reactions of transition‐metal organometallic chemistry. In main‐group chemistry, oxidative addition is now well‐established but reductive elimination reactions are not yet general in the same way. Herein, we report dihydrodialanes supported by amidophosphine ligands. The ligand serves as a stereochemical reporter for reversible reductive elimination/oxidative addition chemistry involving AlI and AlIII intermediates.
