[PMID: 38817536 PMCID: PMC11134609 DOI: 10.1021/acs.organomet.4c00122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2024] [Revised: 04/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
A dinucleating 1,8-naphthyridine ligand featuring fluorene-9,9-diyl-linked phosphino side arms (PNNPFlu) was synthesized and used to obtain the cationic dicopper complexes 2, [(PNNPFlu)Cu2(μ-Ph)][NTf2]; [NTf2] = bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide, 6, [(PNNPFlu)Cu2(μ-CCPh)][NTf2], and 3, [(PNNPFlu)Cu2(μ-OtBu)][NTf2]. Complex 3 reacted with diboranes to afford dicopper μ-boryl species (4, with μ-Bcat; cat = catecholate and 5, with μ-Bpin; pin = pinacolate) that are more reactive in C(sp)-H bond activations and toward activations of CO2 and CS2, compared to dicopper μ-boryl complexes supported by a 1,8-naphthyridine-based ligand with di(pyridyl) side arms. The solid-state structures and DFT analysis indicate that the higher reactivities of 4 and 5 relate to changes in the coordination sphere of copper, rather than to perturbations on the Cu-B bonding interactions. Addition of xylyl isocyanide (CNXyl) to 4 gave 7, [(PNNPFlu)Cu2(μ-Bcat)(CNXyl)][NTf2], demonstrating that the lower coordination number at copper is chemically significant. Reactions of 4 and 5 with CO2 yielded the corresponding dicopper borate complexes (8, [(PNNPFlu)Cu2(μ-OBcat)][NTf2]; 9, [(PNNPFlu)Cu2(μ-OBpin)][NTf2]), with 4 demonstrating catalytic reduction in the presence of excess diborane. Related reactions of 4 and 5 with CS2 provided insertion products 10, {[(PNNPFlu)Cu2]2[μ-S2C(Bcat)2]}[NTf2]2, and 11, [(PNNPFlu)Cu2(μ,κ2-S2CBpin)][NTf2], respectively. These products feature Cu-S-C-B linkages analogous to those of proposed CO2 insertion intermediate.

Abstract
The direct pyrolysis of metal-zeolite imidazolate frameworks (M-ZIFs) has been widely recognized as the predominant approach for synthesizing atomically dispersed metal-nitrogen-carbon single-atom catalysts (M/NC-SACs), which have exhibited exceptional activity and selectivity in the semihydrogenation of acetylene. However, due to weak adsorption of reactants on the single site and restricted molecular diffusion, the semihydrogenation of large organic molecules (e.g., phenylacetylene) was greatly limited for M/NC-SACs. In this work, a dual single-atom catalyst (h-Pd-Mn/NC) with hollow mesopores was designed and prepared using a general host-guest strategy. Taking the semihydrogenation of phenylacetylene as an example, this catalyst exhibited ultrahigh activity and selectivity, which achieved a turnover frequency of 218 molC═CmolPd-1 min-1, 16-fold higher than that of the commercial Lindlar catalyst. The catalyst maintained high activity and selectivity even after 5 cycles of usage. The superior activity of h-Pd-Mn/NC was attributed to the 4.0 nm mesopore interface of the catalyst, which enhanced the diffusion of macromolecular reactants and products. Particularly, the introduction of atomically dispersed Mn with weak electronegativity in h-Pd-Mn/NC could drive the electron transfer from Mn to adjacent Pd sites and regulate the electronic structure of Pd sites. Meanwhile, the strong electronic coupling in Pd-Mn pairs enhanced the d-electron domination near the Fermi level and promoted the adsorption of phenylacetylene and H2 on Pd active sites, thereby reducing the energy barrier for the semihydrogenation of phenylacetylene.

Abstract
Heterobimetallic complexes have recently garnered considerable attention in organic synthesis owing to their high activity and selectivity, which surpass those of monometallic complexes. In this study, the detailed mechanisms of terminal alkyne dimerization activated by the heterobimetallic Zr/Co complex, as well as the different stereoselectivities of Me3SiC≡CH and PhC≡CH dimerization, were investigated and elucidated by using density functional theory calculations. After excluding the three-molecule reaction and outer-sphere mechanisms, the inner-sphere mechanism was determined as the most optimal process. The inner-sphere mechanism involves four processes: THF dissociation and coordination of the first alkyne; ligand migration and C-H activation; N2 dissociation and insertion of the second alkyne; and reductive elimination. The stereoselectivity between the E-/Z- and gem-isomers is determined by the C-C coupling mode of the two alkynes and that of the E- and Z-isomers is determined by the sequence of the C-C coupling and hydrogen migration in the reductive elimination process. Me3SiC≡CH dimerization yields only an E-isomer owing to the large differences in the distortion and interaction energies, whereas PhC≡CH dimerization produces an E-, Z-, and gem-isomers owing to the reduced interaction energy differences.

Abstract
The iridium(I)-aminophosphane complex [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(cod)] has been prepared by reaction of [IrCl(cod)(SiNP)] with KCH3COO. DFT calculations show that this reaction takes place through an unexpected outer sphere mechanism (SiNP = SiMe2{N(4-C6H4Me)PPh2}2; SiNP-H = CH2SiMe{N(4-C6H4Me)PPh2}2). The reaction of [IrCl(cod)(SiNP)] or [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(cod)] with diverse oxidants has been explored, yielding a range of iridium(III) derivatives. On one hand, [IrCl(cod)(SiNP)] reacts with allyl chloride rendering the octahedral iridium(III) derivative [IrCl2(η3-C3H5)(SiNP)], which, in turn, reacts with tert-butyl isocyanide yielding the substitution product [IrCl(η3-C3H5)(CNtBu)(SiNP)]Cl via the observed intermediate [IrCl2(η1-C3H5)(CNtBu)(SiNP)]. On the other hand, the reaction of [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(cod)] with [FeCp2]X (X = PF6, CF3SO3), I2 or CF3SO3CH3 results in the metal-centered two-electron oxidation rendering a varied assortment of iridium(III) compounds. [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(cod)] reacts with [FeCp2]+ (1 : 2) in acetonitrile affording [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(CH3CN)3]2+ isolated as both the triflato and the hexafluorophosphato derivatives. Also, the reaction of [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(cod)] with I2 (1 : 1) yields a mixture of iridium(III) derivatives, namely the mononuclear compound [IrI(κ2P,P'-SiNP)(η2,η3-C8H11)]I, containing the η2,η3-cycloocta-2,6-dien-1-yl ligand, and two isomers of the dinuclear derivative [Ir2{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}2(μ-I)3]I, the first species being isolated in low yield. DFT calculations indicate that [IrI(κ2P,P'-SiNP)(η2,η3-C8H11)]I forms as the result of a bielectronic oxidation of iridium(I) followed by the deprotonation of the cod ligand by iodide and the protonation of the methylene moiety of the [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}] platform by the newly formed HI. Finally, the oxidation of [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(cod)] by methyl triflate proceeds via a hydride abstraction from the cod ligand, with the elimination of methane and the formation of the η2,η3-cycloocta-2,6-dien-1-yl ligand with the concomitant two-electron oxidation of the iridium centre. The crystal structures of selected compounds have been determined.

Abstract
Ligands are known to play a crucial role in the construction of complexes with metal-metal bonds. Compared with metal-metal bonds involving d-block transition metals, knowledge of the metal-metal bonds involving f-block rare-earth metals still lags far behind. Herein, we report a series of complexes with cerium-transition-metal bonds, which are supported by two kinds of nitrogen-phosphorus ligands N[CH2CH2NHPiPr2]3 (VI) and PyNHCH2PPh2 (VII). The reactions of zerovalent group 10 metal precursors, Pd(PPh3)4 and Pt(PPh3)4, with the cerium complex supported by VI generate heterometallic clusters [N{CH2CH2NPiPr2}3Ce(μ-M)]2 (M = Pd, 2 and M = Pt, 3) featuring four Ce-M bonds; meanwhile, the bimetallic species [(PyNCH2PPh2)3Ce-M] (M = Ni, 5; M = Pd, 6; and M = Pt, 7) with a single Ce-M bond were isolated from the reactions of the cerium precursor 4 supported by VII with Ni(COD)2, Pd(PPh3)4, or Pt(PPh3)4, respectively. These complexes represent the first example of species with an RE-M bond between Ce and group 10 metals, and 2 and 3 contain the largest number of RE-M donor/acceptor interactions ever to have been observed in a molecule.

Abstract
A single bridging phosphinoamide ligand was shown to support a metal-metal triple bond in a Zr/Co heterobimetallic complex. The similarity of the bonding in this compound to previously synthesized Zr/Co species, and therefore the assignment of the Zr/Co triple bond, is supported by the structural parameters of the complex, the electronic structure predicted by density functional theory, and complete-active-space self-consistent-field (CASSCF) calculations. This demonstrates that metal-metal multiple bonds can be realized in heterobimetallic complexes without multiple bridging ligands to enforce the proximity of the two metals.

Abstract
The synthesis, characterization and catalytic activity of a new class of diruthenium hydrido carbonyl complexes bound to the tBu PNNP expanded pincer ligand is described. Reacting tBu PNNP with two equiv of RuHCl(PPh3 )3 (CO) at 140 °C produces an insoluble air-stable complex, which was structurally characterized as [Ru2 (tBu PNNP)H(μ-H)Cl(μ-Cl)(CO)2 ] (1) using solid-state NMR, IR and X-ray absorption spectroscopies and follow-up reactivity. A reaction with KOtBu results in deprotonation of a methylene linker to produce [Ru2 (tBu PNNP* )H(μ-H)(μ-OtBu)(CO)2 ] (3) featuring a partially dearomatized naphthyridine core. This enables metal-ligand cooperative activation of H2 analogous to the mononuclear analogue, [Ru(tBu PNP*)H(CO)]. In contrast to the mononuclear system, the bimetallic analogue 3 catalyzes the E-selective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes at ambient temperature and atmospheric H2 pressure with good functional group tolerance. Monitoring the semi-hydrogenation of diphenylacetylene by 1 H NMR spectroscopy shows the intermediacy of Z-stilbene, which is subsequently isomerized to the E-isomer. Initial findings into the mode of action of this system are provided, including the spectroscopic characterization of a polyhydride intermediate and the isolation of a deactivated species with a partially hydrogenated naphthyridine backbone.

Abstract
Heterobi- and multimetallic complexes providing close proximity between several metal centers serve as active species in artificial and enzymatic catalysis, and in model systems, showing unique modes of metal-metal cooperative bond activation. Through the rational design of well-defined, unsymmetrical ligand scaffolds, we create a convenient approach to support the assembly of heterometallic species in a well-defined and site-specific manner, preventing them from scrambling and dissociation. In this perspective, we will outline general strategies for the design of unsymmetrical ligands to support heterobi- and multimetallic complexes that show reactivity in various types of heterometallic cooperative bond activation.

Abstract
The chemo- and stereoselective semi-hydrogenation of alkynes to alkenes is a fundamental transformation in synthetic chemistry, for which the use of precious 4d or 5d metal catalysts is well-established. In mankind's unwavering quest for sustainability, research focus has considerably veered towards the 3d metals. Given their high abundancy and availability as well as lower toxicity and noxiousness, they are undoubtedly attractive from both an economic and an environmental perspective. Herein, we wish to present noteworthy and groundbreaking examples for the use of 3d metal catalysts for diastereoselective alkyne semi-hydrogenation as we embark on a journey through the first-row transition metals.

Abstract
There is growing interest in the design of bimetallic cooperative complexes, which have emerged due to their potential for bond activation and catalysis, a feature widely exploited by nature in metalloenzymes, and also in the field of heterogeneous catalysis. Herein, we discuss the widespread opportunities derived from combining two metals in close proximity, ranging from systems containing multiple M-M bonds to others in which bimetallic cooperation occurs even in the absence of M⋯M interactions. The choice of metal pairs is crucial for the reactivity of the resulting complexes. In this context, we describe the prospects of combining not only transition metals but also those of the main group series, which offer additional avenues for cooperative pathways and reaction discovery. Emphasis is given to mechanisms by which bond activation occurs across bimetallic structures, which is ascribed to the precise synergy between the two metal atoms. The results discussed herein indicate a future landscape full of possibilities within our reach, where we anticipate that bimetallic synergism will have an important impact in the design of more efficient catalytic processes and the discovery of new catalytic transformations.

Abstract
![]()
Understanding the fundamental properties governing metal–metal
interactions is crucial to understanding the electronic structure
and thereby applications of multimetallic systems in catalysis, material
science, and magnetism. One such property that is relatively underexplored
within multimetallic systems is metal–metal bond polarity,
parameterized by the electronegativities (χ) of the metal atoms
involved in the bond. In heterobimetallic systems, metal–metal
bond polarity is a function of the donor–acceptor (Δχ)
interactions of the two bonded metal atoms, with electropositive early
transition metals acting as electron acceptors and electronegative
late transition metals acting as electron donors. We show in this
work, through the preparation and systematic study of a series of
Mo2M(dpa)4(OTf)2 (M = Cr, Mn, Fe,
Co, and Ni; dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylamide; OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate)
heterometallic extended metal atom chain (HEMAC) complexes that this
expected trend in χ can be reversed. Physical characterization
via single-crystal X-ray diffraction, magnetometry, and spectroscopic
methods as well as electronic structure calculations supports the
presence of a σ symmetry 3c/3e– bond that
is delocalized across the entire metal-atom chain and forms the basis
of the heterometallic Mo2–M interaction. The delocalized
3c/3e– interaction is discussed within the context
of the analogous 3c/3e– π bonding in the vinoxy
radical, CH2CHO. The vinoxy comparison establishes three
predictions for the σ symmetry 3c/3e– bond
in HEMACS: (1) an umpolung effect that causes the
Mo–M interactions to become more covalent as Δχ
increases, (2) distortion of the σ bonding and non-bonding orbitals
to emphasize Mo–M bonding and de-emphasize Mo–Mo bonding,
and (3) an increase in Mo spin population with increasing Mo–M
covalency. In agreement with these predictions, we find that the Mo2···M covalency increases with increasing Δχ
of the Mo and M atoms (ΔχMo–M increases
as M = Cr < Mn < Fe < Co < Ni), an umpolung of the trend predicted in the absence of σ delocalization.
We attribute the observed trend in covalency to the decreased energic
differential (ΔE) between the heterometal orbital and the σ bonding molecular
orbital of the Mo2 quadruple bond, which serves as an energetically
stable, “ligand”-like electron-pair donor to the heterometal
ion acceptor. As M is changed from Cr to Ni, the σ bonding and
nonbonding orbitals do indeed distort as anticipated, and the spin
population of the outer Mo group is increased by at least a factor
of 2. These findings provide a predictive framework for multimetallic
compounds and advance the current understanding of the electronic
structures of molecular heteromultimetallic systems, which can be
extrapolated to applications in the context of mixed-metal surface
catalysis and multimetallic proteins. This
work describes how use of a metal−metal quadruply
bonded metalloligand can reverse expected trends in metal−metal
bond polarity through the preparation and systematic study of a novel
series of Mo2M(dpa)4(OTf)2 (M = Cr,
Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni) heterotrimetallic extended metal atom chain (HEMAC)
complexes. These complexes feature a 3c/3e− metal−metal
bond that is delocalized across the entire metal atom chain and is
compared to the 3c/3e− π bonding in the vinoxyl
radical.

Abstract
Monodentate aminophosphanes HNP [NH(4-tolyl)PPh2] and SiMe3NP [SiMe3N(4-tolyl)PPh2] react with [Ir(μ-Cl)(cod)]2 affording tetra- or pentacoordinate complexes of formula [IrCl(L)n(cod)] (L = HNP, n = 1, 2; L = SiMe3NP, n = 1). The reaction of [IrCl(SiMe3NP)(cod)] with carbon monoxide smoothly renders [Ir(CO)3(SiMe3NP)2][IrCl2(CO)2]. The reaction of HNP or SiMe3NP with [Ir(CH3CN)2(cod)][PF6] yields the cyclometalated iridium(III)-hydride derivatives [IrH{κ2C,P-NR(4-C6H3CH3)PPh2}(cod)(CH3CN)][PF6] (R = H, SiMe3) as a result of the intramolecular oxidative addition of the tolyl C2-H bond to iridium. The straighforward formation of [IrH{κ2C,P-SiMe3N(4-C6H3CH3)PPh2}(cod)(CH3CN)]+ was observed when the reaction was monitored by NMR spectroscopy at 233 K, whereas a more complex reaction sequence was observed in the formation of [IrH{κ2C,P-NH(4-C6H3CH3)PPh2}(cod)(CH3CN)]+, including the formation of [IrH{κ2C,P-NH(4-C6H3CH3)PPh2}(HNP)(cod)]+ and [Ir(cod)(HNP)2]+. The "mixed" complex [IrH{κ2C,P-SiMe3N(4-C6H3CH3)PPh2}(HNP)(cod)]+ was obtained upon reaction of [IrH{κ2C,P-NH(4-C6H3CH3)PPh2}(cod)(CH3CN)][PF6] with SiMe3NP at 233 K. Finally, the reaction of [Ir(CH3CN)2(coe)2][PF6] with SiMe3NP or HNP resulted in the formation of [Ir(CH3CN)2(SiMe3NP)2][PF6] and [IrH{κ2C,P-NH(4-C6H3CH3)PPh2}(HNP)2(CH3CN)][PF6], respectively. Both the OC-6-35 and the OC-6-52 isomers of [IrH{κ2C,P-NH(4-C6H3CH3)PPh2}(HNP)2(CH3CN)]+ - featuring facial and meridional dispositions of the phosphorus atoms, respectively - were isolated depending on the reaction solvent. Several compounds described herein catalyse the dehydrogenation of formic acid in DMF, [IrCl(HNP)2(cod)] being the most active, with TOF1 min of about 2300 h-1 (5 mol% catalyst, 50 mol% sodium formate, DMF, 80 °C).

Abstract
The iridium(III) hydride compound [IrH{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(CNtBu)2][PF6] (1PF6) was obtained by reaction of [Ir(SiNP)(cod)][PF6] with CNtBu as the result of the intramolecular oxidative addition of the SiCH2-H bond to iridium(I) [SiNP = Si(CH3)2{N(4-tolyl)PPh2}2, SiNP-H = CH2Si(CH3){N(4-tolyl)PPh2}2]. The mechanism of the reaction was investigated by NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations showing that the pentacoordinated intermediate [Ir(SiNP)(cod)(CNtBu)][PF6] (2PF6) forms in the first place and that further reacts with CNtBu, affording the square planar intermediate [Ir(SiNP)(CNtBu)2][PF6] (3PF6) that finally undergoes the intramolecular oxidative addition of the SiCH2-H bond. The reactivity of 1PF6 was investigated. On one hand, the reaction of 1PF6 with N-chlorosuccinimide or N-bromosuccinimide provides the haloderivatives [IrX{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(CNtBu)2][PF6] (X = Cl, 4PF6; Br, 5PF6), and the reaction of 5PF6 with AgPF6 in the presence of acetonitrile affords the solvato species [Ir{κ3C,P,P'-(SiNP-H)}(CH3CN)(CNtBu)2]2+ (62+) isolated as the hexafluorophosphate salt. On the other hand, the reaction of 1PF6 with HBF4 gives the iridium(III) compound [IrH(CH2SiF2CH3)(HNP)2(CNtBu)2][BF4] (7BF4) as the result of the formal addition of hydrogen fluoride to the Si-N bonds of 1+ [HNP = HN(4-tolyl)PPh2]. A similar outcome was observed in the reaction of 1PF6 with CF3COOH rendering 7PO2F2. In this case the intermediate [IrH{κ2C,P-CH2SiMeFN(4-tolyl)PPh2}(HNP)(CNtBu)2]+ (8+) was observed and characterised in situ by NMR spectroscopy. DFT calculations suggests that the reaction goes through the sequential protonation of the nitrogen atom of the Si-N-P moiety followed by the formal addition of fluoride ion to silicon. Also, the crystal structures of SiNP, 1PF6, 4PF6 and 7BF4 have been determined by X-ray diffraction measurements.

Abstract
Metal-ligand cooperativity (MLC) is an established strategy for developing effective hydrogenation and dehydrogenation catalysts. Metal-metal cooperativity (MMC) in bimetallic complexes is not as well understood, and to date has had limited implementation in (de)hydrogenation. Herein we use (de)hydrogenation processes as a platform to examine modes of cooperativity, with a particular focus on catalytic mechanisms. We investigate how lessons learnt from the extensive development of metal-ligand cooperative catalysts can aid the ongoing development of metal-metal cooperative catalysts.

Abstract
Dispersing single palladium atoms on a support is promising to minimize the usage of palladium and improve the selectivity for alkyne semihydrogenation, but its activity is often very low as a result of unfavorable H2 activation. Here, we load palladium onto α-Fe2O3(012) to construct highly active and stable single-site Pd-Fe pairs with luxuriant d-electron domination near the Fermi level driven by strong electronic coupling and prove that Pd-Fe pairs cooperatively adsorb H2 and dissociate an H─H bond, whereas solo Pd sites enable preferential desorption of C═C intermediate, thus achieving both high activity and high selectivity for alkyne hydrogenation. This catalyst exhibits state-of-the-art performance in purifying acetylene of ethylene stream, with 99.6% and 100% conversion and 96.7% and 94.7% selectivity at 353 and 393 K, respectively, and excellent stability with negligible activity decay after a 200 h test. This single-site pair inherits the advantage but overcomes the weakness of both Pd ensemble and single Pd atoms, enabling ultralow-Pd-loading catalysts for selective hydrogenation.

Abstract
Bifunctional transition metal complexes are of particular interest in metal-ligand cooperative activation of small molecules. As a novel type of bifunctional catalyst, Lewis acid transition metal (LA-TM) complexes have attracted increasing interest in hydrogen activation and storage. To advance the catalyst design, herein the metal effect of LA-TM complexes on the hydrogen activation has been systematically studied with a series of tris(phosphino)borane (TPB) complexes with V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni as metal centers. The metal effect not only influences the mechanism of hydrogen activation, but also notably casts a volcano plot for the activity. TPB complexes of V, Cr, Mn, Fe, and Co tend to activate H2 through a stepwise mechanism, while TPB-Ni prefers a synergetic mechanism for H2 activation. More importantly, the metal effect significantly influences the activity of H2 activation and the formation of the LA-H-TM bridging hydride. The trend of changes in the LA-H-TM structures, the second-order perturbation stabilization energies, and the Laplacian bond orders, along with different metals (from V to Ni), are all interestingly constitute volcano plots for the performance of TPB-TM complexes catalyzed H2 activation. TPB-Mn and TPB-Fe are found to be the optimal catalysts among the discussed TPB-TM complexes. The volcano plots disclosed for the metal effects should be informative and instructive for homogeneous and heterogeneous LA-TM catalysts development.

Abstract
The development of complexes featuring low-valent, multiply bonded metal centers is an exciting field with several potential applications. In this work, we describe the design principles and extensive computational investigation of new organometallic platforms featuring the elusive manganese-manganese bond stabilized by experimentally realized N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). By using DFT computations benchmarked against multireference calculations, as well as MO- and VB-based bonding analyses, we could disentangle the various electronic and structural effects contributing to the thermodynamic and kinetic stability, as well as the experimental feasibility, of the systems. In particular, we explored the nature of the metal-carbene interaction and the role of the ancillary η6 coordination to the generation of Mn2 systems featuring ultrashort metal-metal bonds, closed-shell singlet multiplicities, and positive adiabatic singlet-triplet gaps. Our analysis identifies two distinct classes of viable synthetic targets, whose electrostructural properties are thoroughly investigated.

Abstract
Although dirhodium-catalyzed multicomponent reactions of diazo compounds, nucleophiles and electrophiles have achieved great advance in organic synthesis, the introduction of allylic moiety as the third component via allylic metal intermediate remains a formidable challenge in this area. Herein, an attractive three-component reaction of readily accessible amines, diazo compounds, and allylic compounds enabled by a novel dirhodium(II)/Xantphos catalysis is disclosed, affording various architecturally complex and functionally diverse α-quaternary α-amino acid derivatives in good yields with high atom and step economy. Mechanistic studies indicate that the transformation is achieved through a relay dirhodium(II)-catalyzed carbene insertion and allylic alkylation process, in which the catalytic properties of dirhodium are effectively modified by the coordination with Xantphos, leading to good activity in the catalytic allylic alkylation process.

Abstract
The generation and characterization of multiple metal-metal (M-M) bonds between early and late transition metals is vital to correlate the nature of multiple M-M bonds with the related reactivity in catalysis, while the examples with multiple M-M bonds have been rarely reported. Herein, we identified that the quadruple bonding interactions were formed in a gas-phase ion IrV+ with a dramatically short Ir-V bond. Oxidation of four CO molecules by IrVO4+ is a highly exothermic process driven by the generation of stable products IrV+ and CO2, and then IrV+ can be oxidized by N2O to regenerate IrVO4+. This finding overturns the general impression that vanadium oxide clusters are unwilling to oxidize multiple CO molecules because of the strong V-O bond and that at most two oxygen atoms can be supplied from a single V-containing cluster in CO oxidation. This study emphasizes the potential importance of heterobimetallic multiple M-M bonds in related heterogeneous catalysis.

Abstract
Metalation of β-diketiminato rare-earth metal complexes LnacnacLn(PhNCH2PPh2)2 (Ln = Y, Yb, Lu) with (COD)Pd(CH2SiMe3)2 afforded three-coordinate Pd(0) complexes supported by two sterically less bulky phosphines and a Pd → Ln dative interaction. The Pd(0) center is prone to ligation with isonitrile and CO; in the latter case, the insertion of a second CO with the Y-N bond was assisted via a precoordination of CO on the Pd(0) center, which led to the formation of an anionic Pd(0) carbamoyl. The reaction of the Pd-Y complex with iodobenzene showed a remarkable double P-C bond cleavage-formation pathway within the heterobimetallic Pd-Y core to afford (Ph3P)2PdI(Ph), imine PhNCH2, and a β-diketiminato yttrium diiodide. In the related reaction of LnacnacY(PhNCH2PPh2)2 with (Ph3P)2PdI(Ph), the P-C bond cleavage following with a N-C bond formation was observed. Computational studies revealed a synergetic bimetallic mechanism for these reactions.

Abstract
We describe the preparation of the cis-bis(η1,η2-2,2-dimethylpent-4-en-1-yl)rhodate(I) anion, cis-[Rh(CH2CMe2CH2CH═CH2)2]-, and the interaction of this species with Li+ both in solution and in the solid state. For the lithium(diethyl ether) salt [Li(Et2O)][Rh(CH2CMe2CH2CH═CH2)2], VT-NMR and 1H{7Li} NOE NMR studies in toluene-d8 show that the Li+ cation is in close proximity to the dz2 orbital of rhodium. In the solid-state structure of the lithium(12-crown-4) salt [Li(12-crown-4)2][Li{Rh(CH2CMe2CH2CH═CH2)2}2], one lithium atom is surrounded by two [Rh(CH2CMe2CH2CH═CH2)2]- anions, and in this assembly there are two unusually short Rh-Li distances of 2.48 Å. DFT calculations, natural energy decomposition, and ETS-NOCV analysis suggest that there is a weak dative interaction between the 4dz2 orbitals on the Rh centers and the 2pz orbital of the Li+ cation. The charge-transfer term between Rh and Li+ contributes only about the 1/5 of the total interaction energy, however, and the principal driving force for the proximity of Rh and Li in compounds 1 and 2 is that Li+ is electrostatically attracted to negative charges on the dialkylrhodiate anions.

Abstract
Cluster complexes have attracted interest for decades due to their promise of drawing analogies to metallic surfaces and metalloenzyme active sites, but only recently have chemists started to develop ligand scaffolds that are specifically designed to support multinuclear transition metal cores. Such ligands not only hold multiple metal centers in close proximity but also allow for fine-tuning of their electronic structures and surrounding steric environments. This Feature Article highlights ligand designs that allow for cooperative small molecule activation at cluster complexes, with a particular focus on complexes that contain metal-metal bonds. Two useful ligand-design elements have emerged from this work: a degree of geometric flexibility, which allows for novel small molecule activation modes, and the use of redox-active ligands to provide electronic flexibility to the cluster core. The authors have incorporated these factors into a unique class of dinucleating macrocycles (nPDI2). Redox-active fragments in nPDI2 mimic the weak-overlap covalent bonding that is characteristic of M-M interactions, and aliphatic linkers in the ligand backbone provide geometric flexibility, allowing for interconversion between a range of geometries as the dinuclear core responds to the requirements of various small molecule substrates. The union of these design elements appears to be a powerful combination for analogizing critical aspects of heterogeneous and metalloenzyme catalysts.

Abstract
A rare heterobimetallic oxidative addition of X-H (X = C, O) bonds is reported. DFT suggests that steric constraints around the bimetallic core play a critical role to synergistically activate C-H bonds across the two metals and thus explains the exceptional H/D exchange catalytic activity of unhindered surface organometallic Ta/Ir species observed experimentally.

Abstract
Inspired by natural metalloenzymes that efficiently catalyze a variety of transformations, chemists have developed large numbers of dinuclear transition-metal complexes with extraordinary properties and reactivity patterns. For main-group element compounds, however, metal-metal cooperativity is much less explored. Here we present the synthesis and characterization of a room-temperature-stable compound with two separated two-coordinated gallium(I) centers possessing both a lone pair of electrons and a vacant orbital, reminiscent of singlet carbenes. This species displays enhanced reactivity compared to its mononuclear counterpart due to bimetallic cooperativity that allows for the facile activation of strong C-F bonds across the gallium-gallium bond. Two mechanistic scenarios of the cooperative bond activation have been identified by DFT and DLPNO-CCSD(T) calculations.

Abstract
Nonanuclear zinc-gold heterobimetallic complexes were synthesized in a two-step process. Commercially available carboxy-functionalized phosphine ligands were used for selective binding to Zn and Au centers. In the first step, bipyridine coordinated Zn-metalloligands with free phosphine moieties were prepared. Reaction of Zn-metalloligands with [AuCl(tht)] (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) resulted in the formation of nonanuclear Zn-Au heterobimetallic complexes. The flexibility of the carboxy-functionalized phosphine ligands was shown to be crucial for the formation of aurophilic interactions. Further, the photoluminescence of the Zn-metalloligands and one Zn-Au complex was investigated at room temperature as well as 77 K. The emission spectra showed clear difference between the Zn-metalloligands and the Zn-Au complex.

Abstract
Highly selective catalytic hydrogenation of alkynes to alkenes is a highly important reaction owing to its industrial and commercial application. Specifically, semihydrogenation of terminal alkynes has been more challenging than internal alkenes even using Lindlar catalysts. Also, the high reduction degree state metal-supported catalysts like Pd0/C, Pt0/C, and Ru0/C have been well-known to be used widely in hydrogenation due to their super activity. However, charcoal can absorb a large amount of water; Pd/C with 50% water is convenient on a large-scale synthesis. Charcoal generally bears oxygen groups on its surface, which are responsible for low selectivity and undesired products. Even typically, only 10-60% of the Pd metal atoms are exposed, they still suffer from poor stability in acids owing to leaching. Herein, we intend to design active and stable metal catalysts with features as the following to avoid leaching: having strong interaction with the support and coordinatively unsaturated metal sites or low valence state metals physically isolated from the acid environment. Herein, a highly efficient semihydrogenation of terminal alkynes to produce alkenes has been realized using a heterogeneous Pd(II)/POP-GIEC catalyst, imine-linked, crystalline, and porous organic polymer supporter modified by coordination of Pd(OAc)2 to its walls under mild conditions. Surprisingly, for the first time, modified POP-supported low reduction degree PdII catalysts were synthesized efficiently, and they were successfully used in semihydrogenation of terminal alkynes. The substrate scope was studied and included both unfunctionalized as well as functionalized substituents on the para, ortho, and meta position of aromatic alkynes. The substrate having a substituent with the functionality of fluoro protected at the meta position was semihydrogenated with a high alkyne conversion of 100% and olefin selectivity (up to 99%).

Abstract
The reaction of the copper(I) β-diketiminate copper complex {(Cu(BDIMes))2(μ-C6H6)} (BDIMes = N,N'-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)pentane-2,4-diiminate) with the low-valent group 13 metal β-diketiminates M(BDIDip) (M = Al or Ga; BDIDip = N,N'-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)pentane-2,4-diiminate) in toluene afforded the complexes {(BDIMes)CuAl(BDIDip)} and {(BDIMes)CuGa(BDIDip)}. These feature unsupported copper-aluminum or copper-gallium bonds with short metal-metal distances, Cu-Al = 2.3010(6) Å and Cu-Ga = 2.2916(5) Å. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations showed that approximately half of the calculated association enthalpies can be attributed to London dispersion forces.

Abstract
Pyridinemethanolate and oxyquinoline derivatives of previously reported late transition metal-aluminum heterobimetallic complexes containing iridium and rhodium have been synthesized and characterized. A combination of experimental and computational data permits a direct comparison of the electronic effects of each novel aluminum-containing ligand in our library on the late transition metal centers. Alongside electronic data of previously reported oxypyridine bridged systems, we conclude that the addition of a dialkylaluminum(X) (X = anion) fragment does not significantly perturb the electron donor ability of the bridging ligand. Anions bound to the aluminum are also shown to behave similarly. The overall library, thus, suggests that the best predictor of the electron donor ability of an alkylaluminum-containing ligand to a transition metal is the donor power of the bridging ligand.

Abstract
We report the synthesis, characterization and coordination chemistry of a new naphthyridine-derived phosphinite PONNOP expanded pincer ligand. As envisioned, the dinucleating ligand readily binds two copper(i) centers in close proximity, but undergoes an unexpected rearrangement in the presence of nickel(ii) salts to form an interesting PONNP pincer platform.

Abstract
A highly selective hydrogenation of alkynes using an air-stable and readily available manganese catalyst has been achieved. The reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions and tolerates various functional groups, resulting in (Z)-alkenes and allylic alcohols in high yields. Mechanistic experiments suggest that the reaction proceeds via a bifunctional activation involving metal-ligand cooperativity.

Abstract
The chemistry of coinage metal ions with Fe(CO)5, [Mn(CO)5]- and [Fe(CO)4CN]- has been explored using Mes3P and N-heterocyclic carbene supporting ligands. A comparison of [(SIPr)Au-Fe(CO)5][SbF6], [(Et2CAAC)Au-Fe(CO)5][SbF6] and [(Mes3P)Au-Fe(CO)5][SbF6] shows that the ligand donor strength towards Au(i) follows the order Mes3P > Et2CAAC > SIPr. These Fe(CO)5 complexes show significant blue shifts in [small nu, Greek, macron]CO bands relative to those observed for free Fe(CO)5 as a result of it serving as a net electron donor to Au(i). Au(i) is a much stronger acceptor in (SIPr)Au-Mn(CO)5 compared to Ag(i) in (SIPr)Ag-Mn(CO)5. The structural details of Mes3PAu-Mn(CO)5 are also presented. [Fe(CO)4CN]- afforded CN bridged coinage metal complexes with (IPr*)Au+, (SIPr)Ag+ and (SIPr)Cu+ moieties, rather than molecules with direct Fe/coinage metal bonds. The computed total interaction energies indicate that both [Mn(CO)5]- and [Fe(CO)4CN]- are stronger donors toward Au(i) than Fe(CO)5. A detailed analysis of the bonding interactions between the coinage metal ions and Fe(CO)5, [Mn(CO)5]- and [Fe(CO)4CN]- suggests that the largest contribution comes from electrostatic attraction, while the covalent component follows the Dewar-Chatt-Duncanson model. The σ-donor interactions of these organometallic ligands with coinage metal ions are considerably stronger than the π-backbonding from the coinage metal ions.

Abstract
Reported herein is the use of aryls as axial ligands to manipulate reactivity at the distal metal site through metal-metal-ligand interactions in diruthenium paddlewheel complexes. The vacant ruthenium site in Ru2(ap)4(Ar) (1; ap = 2-anilinopyridinate and Ar = C6H4-4-NMe2), thus rendered reactive, is able to bind a series of isoelectronic ligands to afford three complexes of the form (Y)[Ru2(ap)4](Ar) [Y = CN- (2), HC≡C- (3), CO (4)], each of which exhibits a distinct electronic structure. While reactions with anionic ligands subsequently result in oxidation of the diruthenium core from Ru2(II,III) to Ru2(III,III), the reaction with CO yields a rare example of a Ru2(II,III)-COaxial adduct. The latter reaction is particularly interesting in its completely reversible change of the ground state from S = 3/2 in 1 to S = 1/2 in 4, the first of its kind seen in Ru2(II,III) species. In general, this work sheds light on the modulation of the electronic structure of diruthenium paddlewheel complexes using distinct coordination environments around each of the ruthenium centers.

Abstract
A joint experimental/computational effort to elucidate the mechanism of dihydrogen activation by a gold(I)/platinum(0) metal-only frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) is described herein. The drastic effects on H2 activation derived from subtle ligand modifications have also been investigated. The importance of the balance between bimetallic adduct formation and complete frustration has been interrogated, providing for the first time evidence for genuine metal-only FLP reactivity in solution. The origin of a strong inverse kinetic isotopic effect has also been clarified, offering further support for the proposed bimetallic FLP-type cleavage of dihydrogen.

Abstract
This report describes an isostructural series of dinuclear iron, cobalt, and nickel complexes bound by a redox-active macrocyclic ligand. The series spans five redox levels (34-38 e-/cluster core), allowing for a detailed investigation into both the degree of metal-metal interaction and the extent of ligand-based redox-activity. Magnetometry, electrochemistry, UV-vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, and crystallography were used in conjunction with DFT computational analyses to extract the electronic structures of the six homodinuclear complexes. The isoelectronic, 34 e- species [(3PDI2)Fe2(PMe3)2(μ-Cl)](OTf) and [(3PDI2)Co2(PMe3)2(μ-Cl)](OTf)3 exhibit metal-metal single bonds, with varying amounts of electron density delocalization into the ligand as a function of the effective nuclear charge of the metal ions. One- and two-electron reductions of [(3PDI2)Co2(PMe3)2(μ-Cl)](OTf)3 lead to isolable products, which show successive increases in both the Co-Co distances and the extent of reduction of the ligand manifold. This trend results from reduction of a Co-Co σ* orbital, which was found to be heavily mixed with the redox-active manifold of the 3PDI2 ligand. A similar trend was observed in the 37 and 38 e- dinickel complexes [(3PDI2)Ni2(PMe3)2(μ-Cl)](OTf)2 and [(3PDI2)Ni2(PMe3)2(μ-Cl)](OTf); however, their higher electron counts lead to high-spin ground states that result from occupation of a high-lying δ/δ* manifold with significant Ni-NPDI σ* character. This change in ground state configuration reforms a M-M bonding interaction in the 37 e- complex, but formation of the 38 e- species again disrupts the M-M bond alongside the transfer of electron density to the ligand.
