Abstract
We have synthesised and characterised the complex Ni(tpy)2 (tpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine). This formally Ni(0) complex is paramagnetic both in the solid state and in solution (S = 2). The crystal structure shows an octahedral geometry, with molecules arranged in independent dimers involving π-stacking between pairs of complexes. Magnetic measurementes and DFT calculations suggest the existence of temperature-dependent intermolecular antiferromagnetic coupling in the solid state.

Unexpected Reduction of a Coordinated Diazapyridinophane Ligand Bound to Chromium(III) Ion Leading to Delocalization of the Unpaired Electron across Two Isolated Pyridine Units. Chemistry 2024; 30:e202301099.

Abstract
In the tetraazamacrocyclic ligand N,N'-dimethyl-2,11-diaza-[3.3](2,6)pyridinophane (L-N4 Me2 ), the two pyridine units are separated from each other by sp3 -hybridized triatomic bridges. Such electronically isolated pyridine moieties are considerably less prone to reductions than di- or triimines. A detailed structural, magnetic, and spectroscopic investigation of the complexes [Cr(L-N4 Me2 )(OAc)2 ] and [Cr(L-N4 Me2 )(OAc)2 ](PF6 ), in combination with theoretical calculations, reveals that the reduced complex must be described as a chromium(III) ion coordinated to the anionic radical ligand (L-N4 Me2 )⋅- rather than a low-spin chromium(II) ion bound to closed-shell ligands. Thus, it is, to the best of our knowledge, only the second example of a stable and structurally characterized metal complex containing a reduced isolated pyridine unit. The stability is attributed to the delocalization of the unpaired electron across the two pyridine units, mediated by their interaction to the metal ion.

The role of tridentate ligands on the redox stability of anticancer gold(III) complexes. J Inorg Biochem 2022; 236:111970.

Abstract
Gold(III) complexes are promising compounds for cancer chemotherapy, whose action depends on their redox stability. In this context, the choice of ligands is crucial to adjust their reactivity and biological response. The present study addressed the effect of the gold coordination sphere on the reduction potential (Eo) for ten gold(III) complexes containing five or six-membered rings tridentate ligands - [AuIII(trident)Cl]3+n (trident = N^N^N, C^N^N, C^C^N, C^N^C, and N^C^N). The calculated Eo covered a broad range of 2500 mV with the most stable complexes containing two AuC bonds (Eo = -1.85 V for [AuIII(C^C^N)Cl] - f). For complexes with one AuC bond, the N^C^N ligands stabilize the gold(III) complex more efficiently than N^N^C; however, the inclusion of the non-innocent ligand bipy (2,2'-bipyridine) in N^N portion provides an extra stabilization effect. Among the derivatives with one AuC bond, [AuIII(N^N^C)Cl]+ (N^N = bipy) (a) showed Eo = -1.20 V. For the complexes with N^N^N ligands, Eo was positive and almost constant (+0.60 V). Furthermore, the kinetics for ligand exchange reactions (Cl-/H2O, H2O/Cys and Cl-/Cys) were monitored for the most stable compounds and the energy profiles compared to the reduction pathways.

Abstract
The reaction of Bppy(Mes)2 (BN1; ppy = 2-phenylpyridine) and BCH2ppy(Mes)2 (BN3) with the reducing reagent KC8 resulted in C-C bond formation via intermolecular radical coupling to generate the 4,4'-bipyridyl ligand compounds BN2 and BN4. Adding 1 equivalent of KC8 to a THF solution of BN2 and BN4 generated the 4,4'-bipyridyl radical anions BN2K and BN4K. The dianion species BN2K2 and BN4K2 could be obtained by adding 2 equivalents of KC8 to the THF solution of BN2 and BN4. In the presence of 2,2,2-cryptand or 18-crown-6, the radical anion salt BN2K(crypt) and the dianion salt BN2K2(18c6)2 were isolated for single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Structural, spectroscopic, and computational studies were performed on the three species of BN2 derivatives (neutral, radical anion, and dianion species). BN2 and BN4 were stable and did not undergo photoisomerization or photoelimination under UV light irradiation.

Electrocatalytic CO2 Reduction and H2 Evolution by a Copper (II) Complex with Redox-Active Ligand. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27041399.

Abstract
The process of electrocatalytic CO2 reduction and H2 evolution from water, regarding renewable energy, has become one of the global solutions to problems related to energy consumption and environmental degradation. In order to promote the electrocatalytic reactivity, the study of the role of ligands in catalysis has attracted more and more attention. Herein, we have developed a copper (II) complex with redox-active ligand [Cu(L1)2NO3]NO3 (1, L1 = 2-(6-methoxypyridin-2-yl)-6-nitro-1h-benzo [D] imidazole). X-ray crystallography reveals that the Cu ion in cation of complex 1 is coordinated by two redox ligands L1 and one labile nitrate ligand, which could assist the metal center for catalysis. The longer Cu-O bond between the metal center and the labile nitrate ligand would break to provide an open coordination site for the binding of the substrate during the catalytic process. The electrocatalytic investigation combined with DFT calculations demonstrate that the copper (II) complex could homogeneously catalyze CO2 reduction towards CO and H2 evolution, and this could occur with great performance due to the cooperative effect between the central Cu (II) ion and the redox- active ligand L1. Further, we discovered that the added proton source H2O and TsOH·H2O (p-Toluenesulfonic acid) could greatly enhance its electrocatalytic activity for CO2 reduction and H2 evolution, respectively.

Abstract
The quest for simple ligands that enable multi-electron metal-ligand redox chemistry is driven by a desire to replace noble metals in catalysis and to discover novel chemical reactivity. The vast majority of simple ligand systems display electrochemical potentials impractical for catalytic cycles, illustrating the importance of creating new strategies towards energetically aligned ligand frontier and transition metal d orbitals. We herein demonstrate the ability to chemically control the redox-activity of the ubiquitous acetylacetonate (acac) ligand. By employing the ligand field of high-spin Cr(ii) as a switch, we were able to chemically tailor the occurrence of metal-ligand redox events via simple coordination or decoordination of the labile auxiliary ligands. The mechanism of ligand field actuation can be viewed as a destabilization of the d z 2 orbital relative to the π* LUMO of acac, which proffers a generalizable strategy to synthetically engineer redox-activity with seemingly redox-inactive ligands.

Abstract
Iron pentacarbonyl (Fe(CO)5) is a versatile material that is utilized as an inhibitor of flame, shows soot suppressibility, and is used as a precursor for focused electron-beam-induced deposition (FEBID). X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) of the K edge, which is a powerful technique for monitoring the oxidation states and coordination environment of metal sites, can be used to gain insight into Fe(CO)5-related reaction mechanisms in in situ experiments. We use a finite difference method (FDM) and molecular-orbital-based time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations to clarify the Fe K-edge XANES features of Fe(CO)5. The two pre-edge peaks P1 and P2 are mainly the Fe(1s) → Fe-C(σ*) and Fe(1s) → Fe-C(π*) transitions, respectively. When the geometry transformed from D 3h to C 4v symmetry, a ∼30% decrease of the pre-edge P2 intensity was observed in the simulated spectra. This implies that the π bonding of Fe and CO is sensitive to changes in geometry. The following rising edge and white line regions are assigned to the Fe(1s) → Fe(4p)(mixing C(2p)) transitions. Our results may provide useful information to interpret XANES spectra variations of in situ reactions of metal-CO or similar compounds with π acceptor ligandlike metal-CN complexes.

Abstract
β-Diketonates, such as acetylacetonate, are amongst the most common bidentate ligands towards elements across the entire periodic table and are considered wholly redox-inactive in their complexes. Herein we show that complexation of 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetonate (hfac- ) to CrII spontaneously affords CrIII and a reduced β-diketonate radical ligand scaffold, as evidenced by crystallographic analysis, magnetic measurements, optical spectroscopy, reactivity studies, and DFT calculations. The possibility of harnessing β-diketonates as electron reservoirs opens up possibilities for new metal-ligand concerted reactivity in the ubiquitous β-diketonate coordination chemistry.

Abstract
The role of Hartree-Fock exchange in describing the structural changes occurring upon reduction of bipyridine-based ligands and their complexes is investigated within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. A set of four free ligands in their neutral and radical anionic forms, and two of their zinc complexes in their dicationic and monocationic radical forms, is used to compare a large panel of pure, conventional, and long-range corrected hybrid DFT functionals; coupled cluster single and double calculations are used alongside experimental results as benchmarks. Particular attention has been devoted to the magnitude of the change, upon reduction, of the Δ-parameter, which measures the difference between the Cpy-Cpy and the C-N bond lengths in bipyridine ligand and is known to experimentally correlate with the charge of the ligands. Our results indicate that the structural changes significantly depend on the amount of exact exchange included in the functional. A progressive evolution is observed for the free ligands, whereas two distinct sets of results are obtained for the complexes. Functionals with a small degree of HF exchange, e.g., B3LYP, do not adequately describe geometric changes for the considered species, and, quite surprisingly, the same holds for the CC2 method. The best agreement to experimental and CCSD values is obtained with functionals that include a significant but not excessive part of exact exchange, e.g., CAM-B3LYP, M06-2X, and ωB97X-D. The calculated localization of the added electron after reduction, which depends on the self-interaction error, is used to rationalize these outcomes. Static correlation is also shown to play a role in the accurate description of the electronic structure.

Abstract
For almost 150 years, pyridine radical anions have been described as elusive transient species that cannot be isolated due to dimerization and/or subsequent decomposition reactions. In this work the first example of a stable pyridine radical anion is presented.

Abstract
Known stable [Cr(bpy)2(Ph)2](BPh4) complexes undergo reductive elimination of biphenyl with visible-light photolysis using household incandescent or compact fluorescent light bulbs. A series of [Cr(R-bpy)2(Ar)2](X) complexes (R = H or CMe3; Ar = Ph, C6H4-CMe3, or C6H4-OMe; X = I, BPh4, or PF6) were prepared, and the effect of varying the bipyridine and aryl ligands on the UV-visible spectra and electrochemistry of the chromium(III) complexes was investigated. Photolysis of a mixture of two different bis(aryl) complexes gave only the homocoupled biaryl products by 1H NMR and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analysis. The initial product of photoinduced reductive elimination of [Cr(bpy)2(Ar)2](PF6) was trapped with bipyridine to generate [Cr(bpy)3](PF6) and with benzoyl peroxide to form [Cr(bpy)2(O2CPh)2](PF6). The latter chromium(III) bis(benzoate) complex was also synthesized by the addition of bipyridine and PhCO2H to Cp2Cr, followed by air oxidation. The neutral Cr(bpy)(S2CNMe2)Ph2 complex also generated biphenyl upon visible-light photolysis. While the treatment of Cr(tBu-bpy)(dpm)Cl2 [dpm = (OCtBu)2CH] with AgO2CPh gave trans-Cr(tBu-bpy)(dpm)(O2CPh)2, reaction of the dichloro precursor with PhMgCl produced anionic [Cr(tBu-bpy)Ph3]- with [Mg(dpm)(THF)4]+ as the countercation, with both complexes characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Protonolysis of Cr(bpy)Ph3(THF) with 8-hydroxyquinoline produced Cr(bpy)(quin)Ph2, which generated biphenyl under visible-light photolysis, and the initial product of reductive elimination was trapped by bipyridine or benzoyl peroxide. A related Cr(bpy)(quin)2 complex was synthesized by protonolysis of Cr(bpy)[N(SiMe3)2]2 and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.

Abstract
The structure of the title salt, [CrCl(C10H8N2)2(H2O)][ZnCl4], has been determined from synchrotron data. The Cr(III) ion is coordinated by four N atoms from two 2,2'-bi-pyridine (bipy) ligands, one O atom from a water mol-ecule and a chloride anion in a cis arrangement, displaying a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The tetra-hedral [ZnCl4](2-) anion is slightly distorted owing to its involvement in O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding with the coordinating water mol-ecule. The Cr-N(bipy) bond lengths are in the range 2.0485 (13)-2.0632 (12) Å, while the Cr-Cl and Cr-(OH2) bond lengths are 2.2732 (6) and 1.9876 (12) Å, respectively. In the crystal, mol-ecules are stacked along the a axis.

Abstract
The remarkable chemistry of mononuclear complexes featuring tridentate, meridionally chelating "pincer" ligands has stimulated the development of ligand frameworks containing multiple pincer sites. Here, the coordination chemistry of a novel pentadentate ligand (L(N3O2)) that provides two closely spaced NNO pincer-type compartments fused together at a central diarylamido unit is described. The trianionic L(N3O2) chelate supports homobimetallic structures in which each M(II) ion (M = Co, Cu, Zn) is bound in a meridional fashion by the bridging diarylamido N atom and O,N-donors of the salicyaldimine arms. The metal centers are also coordinated by a mono- or bidentate auxiliary ligand (L(aux)), resulting in complexes with the general form [M2(L(N3O2))(L(aux))2](+) (where L(aux) = 1-methyl-benzimidazole (1MeBI), 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy), 4,4'-dibromo-2,2'-bipyridine (bpy(Br2)), or (S)-2-(4-isopropyl-4,5-dihydrooxazolyl)pyridine (S-(iPr)OxPy)). The fused nature of the NNO pincer sites results in short metal-metal distances ranging from 2.70 Å for [Co2(L(N3O2)) (bpy)2](+) to 3.28 Å for [Zn2(L(N3O2)) (bpy)2](+), as revealed by X-ray crystallography. The complexes possess C2 symmetry due to the twisting of the aryl rings of the μ-NAr2 core; spectroscopic studies indicate that chiral L(aux) ligands, such as S-(iPr)OxPy, are capable of controlling the helical sense of the L(N3O2) scaffold. Since the four- or five-coordinate M(II) centers are linked solely by the amido moiety, each features an open coordination site in the intermetallic region, allowing for the possibility of metal-metal cooperativity in small-molecule activation. Indeed, the dicobalt(II) complex [Co2(L(N3O2)) (bpy(Br2))2](+) reacts with O2 to yield a dicobalt(III) species with a μ-1,2-peroxo ligand. The bpy-containing complexes exhibit rich electrochemical properties due to multiple metal- and ligand-based redox events across a wide (3.0 V) potential window. Using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT), it was determined that one-electron oxidation of [Co2(L(N3O2)) (bpy)2](+) results in formation of a S = 1/2 species with a L(N3O2)-based radical coupled to low-spin Co(II) centers.

Abstract
The tetranuclear neutral species [CrIII4(μ3-O)2(μ2-CH3CO2)7(tbpy0)(tbpy•)]0·3THF has been prepared from a mixture of [CrII2(μ2-CH3CO2)4]·2H2O and 4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine (1:2) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) under anaerobic conditions. Black crystals of [CrIII4(μ-O)2(μ-CH3CO2)7(tbpy)2]0 were grown and investigated by X-ray crystallography: a [Cr4O2]8+ butterfly core structure has been identified. In addition, the presence of seven μ2-acetate bridges, a neutral (tbpy0) ligand, and a single π-radical anion (tbpy•)1– have been clearly identified. The magnetic properties have been investigated by solid-state SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) measurements (2–300 K) and a coupling model is presented. Its X-band electron paramagnetic resonance spectrum has been recorded at 10 and 300 K in toluene solution and successfully simulated. The spin of the (tbpy•)1– radical couples strongly antiferromagnetically to one Cr(III) center (J4 = –129 cm−1). These properties are compared with those reported previously for the monocationic species [CrIII4(μ3-O)2(μ2-CH3CO2)7(bpy0)2](PF6) in Bino et al. (Inorg. Chem. 1991, 30, 856).
