[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
In recent years, noninnocent pyridine diimine (PDI) complexes featuring first-row transition metals have emerged as prominent catalysts, demonstrating efficacy in a diverse range of vital organometallic transformations. However, the inherent complexity of the fundamental reactivity paradigm in these systems arises from the presence of a noninnocent ligand and the multispin feasibility of 3d metals. While density functional theory (DFT) has been widely used to unravel mechanistic insights, its limitations as a single-reference method can potentially misrepresent spin-state energetics, compromising our understanding of these intricate systems. In this study, we employ extensive high-level ab initio state averaged-complete active space self-consistent field/N-electron valence state perturbation theory (SA-CASSCF/NEVPT2) calculations in combination with DFT to investigate an iron-PDI-catalyzed [2 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of alkenes. The transformation proceeds through two major steps: oxidative cyclization and reductive elimination. Contrary to the predictions of DFT calculations, which suggest two-state reactivity in the reaction and identify reductive elimination as the turnover-limiting step, SA-CASSCF/NEVPT2-corrected results unequivocally establish a single-state reactivity scenario with oxidative cyclization as the turnover-limiting step. SA-CASSCF/NEVPT2-based insights into electronic ground states and electron distribution elucidate the intriguing interactions between the PDI ligand and the iron center, revealing the highly multiconfigurational nature of these species and providing a precise depiction of metal-ligand cooperativity throughout the transformation. A comparative assessment of several widely recognized DFT functionals against SA-CASSCF/NEVPT2-corrected data indicates that single-point energy calculations using the modern density functional MN15 on TPSSh geometries offer the most reliable density functional methodology, in scenarios where SA-CASSCF/NEVPT2 computational cost is a consideration.

Electronic Structure and Transformation of Dinitrosyl Iron Complexes (DNICs) Regulated by Redox Non-Innocent Imino-Substituted Phenoxide Ligand. Inorg Chem 2024; 63:2431-2442. [PMID: 38258796 PMCID: PMC10848267 DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.3c03367] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
The coupled NO-vibrational peaks [IR νNO 1775 s, 1716 vs, 1668 vs cm-1 (THF)] between two adjacent [Fe(NO)2] groups implicate the electron delocalization nature of the singly O-phenoxide-bridged dinuclear dinitrosyliron complex (DNIC) [Fe(NO)2(μ-ON2Me)Fe(NO)2] (1). Electronic interplay between [Fe(NO)2] units and [ON2Me]- ligand in DNIC 1 rationalizes that "hard" O-phenoxide moiety polarizes iron center(s) of [Fe(NO)2] unit(s) to enforce a "constrained" π-conjugation system acting as an electron reservoir to bestow the spin-frustrated {Fe(NO)2}9-{Fe(NO)2}9-[·ON2Me]2- electron configuration (Stotal = 1/2). This system plays a crucial role in facilitating the ligand-based redox interconversion, working in harmony to control the storage and redox-triggered transport of the [Fe(NO)2]10 unit, while preserving the {Fe(NO)2}9 core in DNICs {Fe(NO)2}9-[·ON2Me]2- [K-18-crown-6-ether)][(ON2Me)Fe(NO)2] (2) and {Fe(NO)2}9-[·ON2Me] [(ON2Me)Fe(NO)2][PF6] (3). Electrochemical studies suggest that the redox interconversion among [{Fe(NO)2}9-[·ON2Me]2-] DNIC 3 ↔ [{Fe(NO)2}9-[ON2Me]-] ↔ [{Fe(NO)2}9-[·ON2Me]] DNIC 2 are kinetically feasible, corroborated by the redox shuttle between O-bridged dimerized [(μ-ONMe)2Fe2(NO)4] (4) and [K-18-crown-6-ether)][(ONMe)Fe(NO)2] (5). In parallel with this finding, the electronic structures of [{Fe(NO)2}9-{Fe(NO)2}9-[·ON2Me]2-] DNIC 1, [{Fe(NO)2}9-[·ON2Me]2-] DNIC 2, [{Fe(NO)2}9-[·ON2Me]] DNIC 3, [{Fe(NO)2}9-[ONMe]-]2 DNIC 4, and [{Fe(NO)2}9-[·ONMe]2-] DNIC 5 are evidenced by EPR, SQUID, and Fe K-edge pre-edge analyses, respectively.

Abstract
Reaction of the dinucleating ligand 2,7-bis(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)-1,8-naphthyridine (MeL) with the MnI and MnII precursors MnBr(CO)5 and MnCl2 resulted in the formation of the monometallic complexes [MnBr(CO)3(MeL)] (1) and [MnCl2(MeL)] (3). In both cases, formation of bimetallic manganese complexes could be achieved by reduction with KC8, yielding the carbonyl-bridged complex [Mn2(CO)6(MeL)] (2) and the helicate complex [Mn2(MeL)2] (4), respectively. EPR results demonstrate that 4 represents a novel, weakly antiferromagnetically coupled homovalent dimer (J = -0.85 cm-1). The two formally Mn0 ions are both high spin (S = 3/2) and exhibit a zero-field splitting of ≈1 cm-1, suggesting reduction of the complex is substantially ligand centered, and may be better described as a MnII complex coupled to two open shell singlet ligands [MnII2(MeL2-)2]. X-ray crystallography, UV-Vis spectroscopy and DFT analysis support this finding.

Abstract
With bimetallic catalysts becoming increasingly important, the development of electronically and structurally diverse binucleating ligands is desired. This work describes the synthesis of unsymmetric ligand 2,7-di(pyridin-2-yl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidine (dpip) that is achieved in four steps on a multigram scale in an overall 54% yield. The ability of dpip to act as a scaffold for the formation of bimetallic complexes is demonstrated with the one-step syntheses of the dicopper complex [Cu2(dpip)(μ-OH)(CF3COO)3] (4), the dipalladium complex [Pd2(dpip)(μ-OH)(CF3COO)2](CF3COO)·CF3COOH (5), and the dimeric dinickel complex [Ni4(dpip)2(μ-Cl)4Cl2MeOH6][2Cl] (6) in good yields (79-92%). All bimetallic complexes were characterized by spectroscopic methods and X-ray crystallography, which revealed metal-metal distances between 3.4821(9) and 4.106(2) Å. Additionally, quantum chemical calculations were conducted on complex 4 and an analogous 1,8-naphthyridine-based dicopper complex to investigate the differences between the imidazopyrimidine motif reported here and the widely used 1,8-naphthyridine motif. Natural bonding orbital (NBO) and Mayer bond order (MBO) analyses validated the ability of dpip to coordinate metals more strongly. Finally, NBO calculations quantified the differences in the binding energy between the two pockets of the unsymmetrical dpip ligand.

Abstract
Herein, we report the utilization of Ni-Ni species as a manifold for enabling a "ring-walking" event by dynamic translocation of the metal center over the arene backbone. Experimental and computational studies support a translocation occurring via a 1,2-hydride shift. The synthetic applicability of the method is illustrated in a series of C-C bond formations that occur at distal C(sp2)-H sites of simple aryl pivalates.

Abstract
We present four proton-responsive palladium and platinum complexes, [MCl2 (R PONNHO)] (M=Pd, Pt; R=i Pr, t Bu) synthesised by complexation of PdCl2 or PtCl2 (COD) with the 1,8-naphthyridine ligand R PONNHO. Deprotonation of [MCl2 (tBu PONNHO)] switches ligand coordination from mono- to dinucleating, offering a synthetic pathway to bimetallic PdII and PtII complexes [M2 Cl2 (tBu PONNO)2 ]. Two-electron reduction gives planar MI -MI complexes [M2 (tBu PONNO)2 ] (M=Pd, Pt) containing a metal-metal bond. In contrast to the related nickel system that forms a metallophosphorane [Ni2 (tBu PONNOPONNO)], an unusual phosphinite binding mode is observed in [M2 (tBu PONNO)2 ] containing close phosphinite-naphthyridinone P⋅⋅⋅O interactions, which is investigated spectroscopically, crystallographically and computationally. The presented proton-responsive and structurally-responsive R PONNHO and bimetallic R PONNO complexes offer a novel platform for future explorations of metal-ligand and metal-metal cooperativity with palladium and platinum.

Abstract
Cross-coupling catalysts are prone to unproductive side reactivity that can limit their practical use in synthetic chemistry. A detailed understanding of these pathways and the conditions that enable them is important for reaction optimization and rational catalyst design. In this work, we report the off-cycle reactivity of a monoligated, CyJohnPhos-bound Ni0 complex following product-forming reductive elimination. In the absence of substrate, free phosphine ligand, or π-accepting additives, dimerization of (CyJohnPhos)Ni0 occurs, followed by C-P bond activation of the ligand to form a phosphido-bridged Ni0/NiII dimer; both the Ni0/Ni0 and Ni0/NiII dimers were structurally characterized. Monomeric (CyJohnPhos)Ni0 must be intercepted by substrate or free ligand to prevent irreversible dimerization and catalyst deactivation.

Abstract
A tetrapyridyl ligand with a bending anthraquinodimethane linker has been synthesized, and its complexation with coinage metals has been examined. The treatment of the ligand with Ag(I) and Au(I) cations afforded binuclear complexes, wherein the two metal centers were in close proximity to the inside space of the ligand. X-ray analyses corroborated with theoretical calculations indicated that the ligand has reasonable flexibility toward a bending deformation of the linker moiety to provide a ligand pocket suitable for the proximal binuclear complexes, even though such deformations accompany a non-negligible amount of energetic cost. On the other hand, treatment with 2 equiv of Cu(I) salt afforded a binuclear complex, in which both copper atoms were coordinated at the periphery of the ligand.

Abstract
Disproportionation and comproportionation reactions have become increasingly important electron transfer events in organometallic chemistry and catalysis. The renewed interest in these reactions is in part attributed to the improved understanding of first-row metals and their ability to occupy odd and even oxidation states. Disproportionation and comproportionation reactions enable metal complexes to shuttle between various oxidation states, a matter of utmost relevance for controlling the speciation and catalytic turnover. In addition, these reactions have a direct impact in the thermodynamic and kinetic stability of the corresponding metal complexes. This review covers the relevance and impact of these processes in electron transfer reactions and provides valuable information about their non-negligible influence in Ni- and Cu-catalysed transformations.

Abstract
Nickel's +1 oxidation state has received much interest due to its varied and often enigmatic behavior in increasingly popular catalytic methods. In part, the lack of understanding about NiI results from common synthetic strategies limiting the breadth of complexes that are accessible for mechanistic study and catalyst design. We report an oxidative approach using tribromide salts that allows for the generation of a well-defined precursor, [NiI(COD)Br]2, as well as several new NiI complexes. Included among them are complexes bearing bulky monophosphines, for which structure-speciation relationships are established and catalytic reactivity in a Suzuki-Miyaura coupling (SMC) is investigated. Notably, these routes also allow for the synthesis of well-defined monomeric t-Bubpy-bound NiI complexes, which has not previously been achieved. These complexes, which react with aryl halides, can enable previously challenging mechanistic investigations and present new opportunities for catalysis and synthesis.

Abstract
Metal-metal cooperativity is emerging as an important strategy in catalysis. This requires appropriate ligand scaffolds that can support two metals in close proximity. Here we report nickel-promoted formation of a dinucleating planar macrocyclic ligand that can support bimetallic dinickel(II) and dinickel(I) complexes. Reaction outcomes can be tuned by variation of the substituents and reaction conditions to favour dinucleating macrocyclic, mononucleating macrocyclic or conventional pincer architectures.

Abstract
The development of ligands capable of effectively stabilizing highly reactive main-group species has led to the experimental realization of a variety of systems with fascinating properties. In this work, we computationally investigate the electronic, structural, energetic, and bonding features of proximity-enforced group 13-15 homodimers stabilized by a rigid expanded pincer ligand based on the 1,8-naphthyridine (napy) core. We show that the redox-active naphthyridine diimine (NDI) ligand enables a wide variety of structural motifs and element-element interaction modes, the latter ranging from isolated, element-centered lone pairs (e.g., E = Si, Ge) to cases where through-space π bonds (E = Pb), element-element multiple bonds (E = P, As) and biradical ground states (E = N) are observed. Our results hint at the feasibility of NDI-E2 species as viable synthetic targets, highlighting the versatility and potential applications of napy-based ligands in main-group chemistry.

Abstract
Steric properties of ligands are an important parameter for tuning the reactivity of the corresponding complexes. For various ligands used in mononuclear complexes, methods have been developed to quantify their steric bulk. In this work, we present an expansion of the buried volume and the G-parameter to quantify the steric properties of 1,8-napthyridine-based dinuclear complexes. Using this methodology, we explored the tunability of the steric properties associated with these ligands and complexes.

Abstract
Despite amazing advances in cross-coupling technologies over the past several decades, there is not a consistent definition of what a cross-coupling reaction is. Often, definitions rely on comparison to "traditional" palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings pioneered in the 1970s by chemists such as Suzuki, Negishi, and Heck. While these reactions provide a basis for a cross-coupling definition, they do not define this type of transformation, originally described by Linstead almost 20 years prior. Rather than modify and compartmentalize modern transformations to categorize them into either a synthetic or mechanistic definition, we make an argument for broadening the cross-coupling definition to the union of two distinct molecular entities in a covalent-bond-forming process, to encourage discussion around exploring novel reactivity and disconnections. In addition to making a case for a universal cross-coupling definition, we cite specific examples of reactions that break the mold of prior cross-coupling definitions. We believe this perspective will stimulate dialog around what it means to be a cross-coupling and in turn inspire future developments within this field.

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 dialkyl-ortho-biaryl class of phosphines, commonly known as Buchwald-type ligands, are among the most important phosphines in Pd-catalyzed cross-coupling. These ligands have also been successfully applied to several synthetically valuable Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling methodologies and, as demonstrated in this work, are top performing ligands in Ni-catalyzed Suzuki Miyaura Coupling (SMC) and C-N coupling reactions, even outperforming commonly employed bisphosphines like dppf in many circumstances. However, little is known about their structure-reactivity relationships (SRRs) with Ni, and limited examples of well-defined, catalytically relevant Ni complexes with Buchwald-type ligands exist. In this work, we report the analysis of Buchwald-type phosphine SRRs in four representative Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. Our study was guided by data-driven classification analysis, which together with mechanistic organometallic studies of structurally characterized Ni(0), Ni(I), and Ni(II) complexes allowed us to rationalize reactivity patterns in catalysis. Overall, we expect that this study will serve as a platform for further exploration of this ligand class in organonickel chemistry as well as in the development of new Ni-catalyzed cross-coupling methodologies.

Abstract
A dinickel catalyst promotes the [2 + 2 + 1]-cycloaddition of two aldehyde equivalents and a vinylidene. The resulting methylenedioxolane products can be deprotected in one pot under acidic conditions to reveal α-hydroxy ketones. This method provides convenient access to unsymmetrical alkyl-substituted α-hydroxy ketones, which are challenging to synthesize selectively using cross-benzoin reactions. Mechanistic studies are consistent with an initial migratory insertion of the aldehyde into a dinickel bridging vinylidene. Insertion of the second aldehyde followed by C-O reductive elimination furnishes the cycloadduct. Under dilute conditions, an enone side product is generated due to a competing β-hydride elimination from the proposed metallacyclic intermediate. A DFT model consistent with the concentration-dependent formation of the methylenedioxolane and enone is presented.

Abstract
Transition metal-catalysed carbene- and nitrene transfer to the C1-building blocks carbon monoxide and isocyanides provides heteroallenes (i.e. ketenes, isocyanates, ketenimines and carbodiimides). These are versatile and reactive compounds allowing in situ transformation towards numerous functional groups and organic compounds, including heterocycles. Both one-pot and tandem processes have been developed providing valuable synthetic methods for the organic chemistry toolbox. This review discusses all known transition metal-catalysed carbene- and nitrene transfer reactions towards carbon monoxide and isocyanides and in situ transformation of the heteroallenes hereby obtained, with a special focus on the general mechanistic considerations.

Abstract
Several metalloenzymes, including [FeFe]-hydrogenase, employ cofactors wherein multiple metal atoms work together with surrounding ligands that mediate heterolytic and concerted proton-electron transfer (CPET) bond activation steps. Herein, we report a new dinucleating PNNP expanded pincer ligand, which can bind two low-valent iron atoms in close proximity to enable metal-metal cooperativity (MMC). In addition, reversible partial dearomatization of the ligand's naphthyridine core enables both heterolytic metal-ligand cooperativity (MLC) and chemical non-innocence through CPET steps. Thermochemical and computational studies show how a change in ligand binding mode can lower the bond dissociation free energy of ligand C(sp3)-H bonds by ∼25 kcal mol-1. H-atom abstraction enabled trapping of an unstable intermediate, which undergoes facile loss of two carbonyl ligands to form an unusual paramagnetic (S = ) complex containing a mixed-valent iron(0)-iron(i) core bound within a partially dearomatized PNNP ligand. Finally, cyclic voltammetry experiments showed that these diiron complexes show catalytic activity for the electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction. This work presents the first example of a ligand system that enables MMC, heterolytic MLC and chemical non-innocence, thereby providing important insights and opportunities for the development of bimetallic systems that exploit these features to enable new (catalytic) reactivity.

Abstract
Metal-ligand cooperation is an important aspect in earth-abundant metal catalysis. Utilizing ligands as electron reservoirs to supplement the redox chemistry of the metal has resulted in many new exciting discoveries. Here, we demonstrate that iron bipyridine-diimine (BDI) complexes exhibit an extensive electron-transfer series that spans a total of five oxidation states, ranging from the trication [Fe(BDI)]3+ to the monoanion [Fe(BDI]-1. Structural characterization by X-ray crystallography revealed the multifaceted redox noninnocence of the BDI ligand, while spectroscopic (e.g., 57Fe Mössbauer and EPR spectroscopy) and computational studies were employed to elucidate the electronic structure of the isolated complexes, which are further discussed in this report.

Abstract
The free energy for hydride transfer reactions of transition metal hydrides is known to be influenced by solvent effects. The first-row transition metal hydride [HNi(dmpe)2][BF4] (dmpe = 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane) has starkly different hydride transfer reactivities with CO2 in different solvents. A binary mixture of water and acetonitrile was used to tune the hydride transfer reactivity of HNi(dmpe)2+ with CO2 so that the free energy for this reaction approached zero. Various mole fractions of water were tested and a linear relationship between the hydride transfer free energy and solvent composition was established for 0-0.24 mole fraction of water. A deviation from linearity was found upon moving toward higher mole fractions of water. The tuning of the free energy for hydride transfer allowed HNi(dmpe)2+ to be used as a catalyst for the hydrogenation of CO2. The optimized catalyst conditions produced 58 turnovers at room temperature in 0.082 mole fraction of water using 60 atm of a 1:1 mixture of H2 to CO2 gas.

Abstract
A 1,8-naphthyridine diphosphine (NDP) reacts with boron-containing Lewis acids to generate complexes featuring a number of different naphthyridine bonding modes. When exposed to diborane B2 Br4 , NDP underwent self-deprotonation to afford [NDP-B2 Br3 ]Br, an unsymmetrical diborane comprised of four fused rings. The reaction of two equivalents of monoborane BBr3 and NDP in a non-polar solvent provided the simple phosphine-borane adduct [NDP(BBr3 )2 ], which then underwent intramolecular halide abstraction to furnish the salt [NDP-BBr2 ][BBr4 ], featuring a different coordination mode from that of [NDP-B2 Br3 ]Br. Direct deprotonation of NDP by KHMDS or PhCH2 K generates mono- and dipotassium reagents, respectively. The monopotassium reagent reacts with one or half an equivalent of B2 (NMe2 )2 Cl2 to afford NDP-based diboranes with three or four amino substituents.

Abstract
Redox reactions that take place in enzymes and on the surfaces of heterogeneous catalysts often require active sites that contain multiple metals. By contrast, there are very few homogeneous catalysts with multinuclear active sites, and the field of organometallic chemistry continues to be dominated by the study of single metal systems. Multinuclear catalysts have the potential to display unique properties owing to their ability to cooperatively engage substrates. Furthermore, direct metal-to-metal covalent bonding can give rise to new electronic configurations that dramatically impact substrate binding and reactivity. In order to effectively capitalize on these features, it is necessary to consider strategies to avoid the dissociation of fragile metal-metal bonds in the course of a catalytic cycle. This Account describes one approach to accomplishing this goal using binucleating redox-active ligands.In 2006, Chirik showed that pyridine-diimines (PDI) have sufficiently low-lying π* levels that they can be redox-noninnocent in low-valent iron complexes. Extending this concept, we investigated a series of dinickel complexes supported by naphthyridine-diimine (NDI) ligands. These complexes can promote a broad range of two-electron redox processes in which the NDI ligand manages electron equivalents while the metals remain in a Ni(I)-Ni(I) state.Using (NDI)Ni2 catalysts, we have uncovered cases where having two metals in the active site addresses a problem in catalysis that had not been adequately solved using single-metal systems. For example, mononickel complexes are capable of stoichiometrically dimerizing aryl azides to form azoarenes but do not turn over due to strong product inhibition. By contrast, dinickel complexes are effective catalysts for this reaction and avoid this thermodynamic sink by binding to azoarenes in their higher-energy cis form.Dinickel complexes can also activate strong bonds through the cooperative action of both metals. Norbornadiene has a ring-strain energy that is similar to that of cyclopropane but is not prone to undergoing C-C oxidative addition with monometallic complexes. Using an (NDI)Ni2 complex, norbornadiene undergoes rapid ring opening by the oxidative addition of the vinyl and bridgehead carbons. An inspection of the resulting metallacycle reveals that it is stabilized through a network of secondary Ni-π interactions. This reactivity enabled the development of a catalytic carbonylative rearrangement to form fused bicyclic dienones.These vignettes and others described in this Account highlight some of the implications of metal-metal bonding in promoting a challenging step in a catalytic cycle or adjusting the thermodynamic landscape of key intermediates. Given that our studies have focused nearly exclusively on the (NDI)Ni2 system, we anticipate that many more such cases are left to be discovered as other transition-metal combinations and ligand classes are explored.

Abstract
A series of zinc complexes of 2,7-bis(2-pyridyl)-1,8-naphthyridine (BPNP) has been synthesised and characterised by single crystal X-ray diffraction and solution state NMR spectroscopic studies. Reactions of BPNP with zinc acetate and zinc chloride were found to give mononuclear complexes of the form [Zn(BPNP)X2] (X = OAc, Cl), whereas reactions with zinc triflate led to a mixture of products. Several of these were identified crystallographically as [Zn(BPNP-H)(H2O)4](OTf)3 and [Zn(BPNP-H)(NCMe)(OTf)2]OTf, in which protonation of one pyridyl group occurred, and the dimeric species [Zn2(BPNP)4(μ-H2O)2](OTf)4. A trimetallic complex [Zn3(μ2-BPNP)(μ2-OAc)3(OAc)2(μ3-OH)] was also isolated from reactions involving zinc acetate, and demonstrates the ability of BPNP to coordinate two zinc atoms in the adjacent binding pockets.

Abstract
An expanded pincer ligand tBu-PONNOP (2,7-bis(di-tert-butylphosphinito)-1,8-naphthyridine) has been synthesised and its coordination to coinage metals has been studied. Bimetallic complexes were produced with metal halide salts of the type [M2X2(tBu-PONNOP)] (X = Cl, M = Au, Ag, Cu; X = I, M = Cu) with a varying degree of interaction with the naphthyridyl backbone in the order Au < Ag < Cu. The salts [Ag2(tBu-PONNOP)2][BArF4]2 (ArF = 3,5-C6H3(CF3)2) and [Ag2(NCMe)2(tBu-PONNOP)]X2 (X = BArF4, PF6) were prepared, which may serve as a source of tBu-PONNOP via transmetallation.

With nitrous oxide, 1-Fe forms [Fe2(μ2-O)(μ2-NP(pip)3)2(NP(pip)3)2] (2-Fe), with a very short Fe3+-Fe3+ distance. Reactions of 1-Fe with S8 or Se0 result in the bridging, side-on coordination (μ-κ1:κ1-E22-) of the heavy chalcogens in complexes [Fe2(μ-κ1:κ1-E2)(μ2-NP(pip)3)2(NP(pip)3)2] (E = S, 3-Fe, or Se, 4-Fe). In all cases, the complex 1-Co is inert.

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
Conjugated polymers containing main chain azoarene repeat units are synthesized by a dinickel catalyzed N=N coupling reaction of aromatic diazides. The polymerization exhibits broad substrate scope and is compatible with heterocycles commonly featured in high performance organic materials, including carbazole, thiophene, propylenedioxythiophene (ProDOT), diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP), and isoindigo. Copolymerizations can be carried out using monomer mixtures, and monoazide chain stoppers can be used to install well-defined end groups. Azopolymers possess unique properties owing to the functionality of the azo linkages. For example, protonation at nitrogen results in LUMO lowering and red-shifted absorption bands. Additionally, N=N bonds possess low-lying π* levels, allowing azopolymers to be reversibly reduced under mild conditions.

Abstract
In the past decade, the use of earth-abundant metals in homogeneous catalysis has flourished. In particular, metals such as cobalt and iron have been used extensively in reductive transformations including hydrogenation, hydroboration, and hydrosilylation. Manganese, on the other hand, has been considerably less explored in these reductive transformations. Here, we report a well-defined manganese complex, [Mn(iPrBDI)(OTf)2] (2a; BDI = bipyridinediimine), that is an active precatalyst in the hydroboration of a variety of electronically differentiated alkenes (>20 examples). The hydroboration is specifically selective for terminal alkenes and occurs with exclusive anti-Markovnikov selectivity. In contrast, when using the analogous cobalt complex [Co(iPrBDI)(OTf)2] (3a), internal alkenes are hydroborated efficiently, where a sequence of isomerization steps ultimately leads to their hydroboration. The contrasting terminal versus internal alkene selectivity for manganese and cobalt was investigated computationally and is further discussed in the herein-reported study.

Abstract
Dinickel naphthyridine-bis(oxazoline) catalysts promote enantioselective intermolecular [4 + 1]-cycloadditions of vinylidene equivalents and 1,3-dienes. The products of this reaction are methylenecyclopentenes, and the exocyclic alkene is generally obtained with high Z selectivity. E- and Z-dienes react in a stereoconvergent fashion, providing cycloadducts with the same sense of absolute stereochemistry and nearly identical ee values. This feature allows dienes that are commercially available as E/Z mixtures to be used as substrates for the cycloaddition. A DFT model for the origin of asymmetric induction is provided.

Abstract
Bimetallic motifs are a structural feature common to some of the most effective and synthetically useful catalysts known, including in the active sites of many metalloenzymes and on the surfaces of industrially relevant heterogeneous materials. However, the complexity of these systems often hampers detailed studies of their fundamental properties. To glean valuable mechanistic insight into how these catalysts function, this research group has prepared a family of dinucleating 1,8-naphthyridine ligands that bind two first-row transition metals in close proximity, originally designed to help mimic the proposed active site of metal oxide surfaces. Of the various bimetallic combinations examined, dicopper(I) is particularly versatile, as neutral bridging ligands adopt a variety of different binding modes depending on the configuration of frontier orbitals available to interact with the Cu centers. Organodicopper complexes are readily accessible, either through the traditional route of salt metathesis or via the activation of tetraarylborate anions through aryl group abstraction by a dicopper(I) unit. The resulting bridging aryl complexes engage in C-H bond activations, notably with terminal alkynes to afford bridging alkynyl species. The μ-hydrocarbyl complexes are surprisingly tolerant of water and elevated temperatures. This stability was leveraged to isolate a species that typically represents a fleeting intermediate in Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne coupling (CuAAC); reaction of a bridging alkynyl complex with an organic azide afforded the first example of a well-defined, symmetrically bridged dicopper triazolide. This complex was shown to be an intermediate during CuAAC, providing support for a proposed bimetallic mechanism. These platforms are not limited to formally low oxidation states; chemical oxidation of the hydrocarbyl complexes cleanly results in formation of mixed valence CuICuII complexes with varying degrees of distortion in both the bridging moiety and the dicopper core. Higher oxidation states, e.g., dicopper(II), are easily accessed via oxidation of a dicopper(I) compound with air to give a CuII2(μ-OH)2 complex. Reduction of this compound with silanes resulted in the unexpected formation of pentametallic copper(I) dihydride clusters or trimetallic monohydride complexes, depending on the nature of the silane. Finally, development of an unsymmetrical naphthyridine ligand with mixed donor side-arms enables selective synthesis of an isostructural series of six heterobimetallic complexes, demonstrating the power of ligand design in the preparation of heterometallic assemblies.

Abstract
A novel class of chiral naphthyridine diimine ligands (NDI*) readily accessible from C2 -symmetric 2,6-di-(1-arylethyl)anilines is described. The utility of these ligands, particularly one with fluorinated aryl side arms, is demonstrated by a reductive Ni-catalyzed enantioselective alkylidene transfer reaction from 1,1-dichloroalkenes to olefins. This transformation provides direct access to a broad range of synthetically valuable alkylidenecyclopropanes in high yields and enantioselectivities.

Abstract
A new class of nonplanar metalla-aromatics, diiron complexes bridged by a 1,3-butadienyl dianionic ligand, were synthesized in high yields from dilithio reagents and two equivalents of FeBr2 . The complexes consist of two antiferromagnetically coupled high-spin FeII centers, as revealed by magnetometry, Mössbauer spectroscopy, and DFT calculations. Furthermore, experimental (X-ray structural analysis) and theoretical analyses (NICS, ICSS, AICD, MOs) suggest that the complexes are aromatic. Remarkably, this nonplanar metalla-aromaticity is achieved by an uncommon σ-type overlap between the ligand p and metal d orbitals, in sharp contrast to the intensively studied planar aromatic systems featuring delocalized π-type bonding. Specifically, the σ-type interaction between the two Fe 3dxz orbitals and the butadienyl π orbital results in the formation of a six-electron conjugated system and hence enables the aromatic character.

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
Hydride-bridged transition metal complexes have been found to serve as suitable precursors for the activation of small molecules without the use of reducing agents. In this study, we synthesized a dinuclear Mo2H8 complex supported by bulky C5H2tBu3 (Cp‡) ligands, Cp‡2Mo2H8 (1), from the reaction of Cp‡MoCl4 with KC8 under H2. The hydrides of complex 1 can be replaced with benzene at 60 °C to afford a μ-benzene complex Cp‡2Mo2H2(μ-C6H6) (2).
