Abstract
This study describes an unprecedented chromium-catalyzed asymmetric Reformatsky reaction, enabling the synthesis of chiral β-hydroxy carbonyl compounds from α-chlorinated or α-brominated esters and amides. By employing a chiral chromium/diarylamine bis(oxazoline) catalyst, we achieved relatively broad functional group tolerance. Distinct from known reports, the protocol operates under both classical and photoredox conditions, facilitated by the in situ formation of a nucleophilic chiral chromium intermediate through a radical-polar crossover mechanism. Preliminary mechanistic insights, supported by DFT calculations, identify the nucleophilic aldehyde addition as the key stereo-determining step. This approach not only overcomes the limitations of existing Reformatsky reactions but also provides a versatile strategy for accessing complex chiral molecules.

Abstract
The synthesis of the organochromium(II) complexes [POCOPtBu]Cr(R) (R = p-Tol, Bn) is reported. Exposure of [POCOPtBu]Cr(Bn) to visible light promoted homolytic Cr-CBn bond cleavage and formed {[POCOPtBu]Cr}2(η1:η1μ-N2) via a putative [POCOPtBu]Cr(I) species.

Abstract
Dinuclear manganese hydride complexes of the form [Mn2 (CO)8 (μ-H)(μ-PR2 )] (R=Ph, 1; R=iPr, 2) were used in E-selective alkyne semi-hydrogenation (E-SASH) catalysis. Catalyst speciation studies revealed rich coordination chemistry and the complexes thus formed were isolated and in turn tested as catalysts; the results underscore the importance of dinuclearity in engendering the observed E-selectivity and provide insights into the nature of the active catalyst. The insertion product obtained from treating 2 with (cyclopropylethynyl)benzene contains a cis-alkenyl bridging ligand with the cyclopropyl ring being intact. Treatment of this complex with H2 affords exclusively trans-(2-cyclopropylvinyl)benzene. These results, in addition to other control experiments, indicate a non-radical mechanism for E-SASH, which is highly unusual for Mn-H catalysts. The catalytically active species are virtually inactive towards cis to trans alkene isomerization indicating that the E-selective process is intrinsic and dinuclear complexes play a critical role. A reaction mechanism is proposed accounting for the observed reactivity which is fully consistent with a kinetic analysis of the rate limiting step and is further supported by DFT computations.

Abstract
The merger of photoredox and transition-metal catalysis has evolved as a robust platform in organic synthesis over the past decade. The stereoselective 1,4-functionalization of 1,3-enynes, a prevalent synthon in synthetic chemistry, could afford valuable chiral allene derivatives. However, tremendous efforts have been focused on the ionic reaction pathway. The radical-involved asymmetric 1,4-functionalization of 1,3-enynes remains a prominent challenge. Herein, we describe the asymmetric three-component 1,4-dialkylation of 1,3-enynes via dual photoredox and chromium catalysis to provide chiral allenols. This method features readily available starting materials, broad substrate scope, good functional group compatibility, high regioselectivity, and simultaneous control of axial and central chiralities. Mechanistic studies suggest that this reaction proceeds through a radical-involved redox-neutral pathway.

Abstract
The mainstream applications of visible-light photoredox catalysis predominately involve outer-sphere single-electron transfer (SET) or energy transfer (EnT) processes of precious metal RuII or IrIII complexes or of organic dyes with low photostability. Earth-abundant metal-based Mn Ln -type (M=metal, Ln =polydentate ligands) complexes are rapidly evolving as alternative photocatalysts as they offer not only economic and ecological advantages but also access to the complementary inner-sphere mechanistic modes, thereby transcending their inherent limitations of ultrashort excited-state lifetimes for use as effective photocatalysts. The generic process, termed visible-light-induced homolysis (VLIH), entails the formation of suitable light-absorbing ligated metal-substrate complexes (Mn Ln -Z; Z=substrate) that can undergo homolytic cleavage to generate Mn-1 Ln and Z. for further transformations.

Abstract
Described herein is the synthesis and characterization of macrocyclic CrIII mono-alkynyl complexes. By using the meso-form of the tetraazamacrocycle HMC (HMC = 5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane), trans-[Cr(HMC)(C2Ph)Cl]OTf (1a), trans-[Cr(HMC)(C2Np)Cl]OTf (2a), trans-[Cr(HMC)(C2C6H4tBu)Cl]OTf (3a), and trans-[Cr(HMC)(C2(3,5-Cl2C6H3))Cl]OTf (4a) complexes have been realized. These complexes were synthesized in high yield through the reaction of trans-[Cr(meso-HMC)(C2Ar)2]OTf (1b-4b) with stoichiometric amounts of methanolic HCl. Single crystal X-ray diffraction showed that the trans-stereochemistry and pseudo-octahedral geometry is retained in the desired mono-alkynyl complexes. The absorption spectra of complexes 1a-4a display d-d bands with distinct vibronic progressions that are slightly red shifted from trans-[Cr(HMC)(C2Ar)2]+ with approximately halved molar extinction coefficients. Time-delayed measurements of the emission spectra for complexes 1a-4a at 77 K revealed phosphorescence with lifetimes ranging between 343 μs (4a) and 397 μs (1a). The phosphorescence spectra of 1a-4a also exhibit more structuring than the bis-alkynyl complexes due to a strengthened vibronic coupling between the CrIII metal center and alkynyl ligands.

Abstract
Developments in the field of photoredox catalysis that leveraged the long-lived excited states of Ir(III) and Ru(II) photosensitizers to enable radical coupling processes paved the way for explorations of synthetic transformations that would otherwise remain unrealized. While first row transition metal photocatalysts have not been as extensively investigated, valuable synthetic transformations covering broad scopes of olefin functionalization have been recently reported featuring photoactivated chlorobis(phenanthroline) Cu(II) complexes. In this study, the photochemical processes underpinning the catalytic activity of [Cu(dmp)2Cl]Cl (dmp = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) were studied. The combined results from static spectroscopic measurements and conventional photochemistry, ultrafast transient absorption, and electron paramagnetic resonance spin trapping experiments strongly support blue light (λex = 427 or 470 nm)-induced Cu-Cl homolytic bond cleavage in [Cu(dmp)2Cl]+ occurring in <100 fs. On the basis of electronic structure calculations, this bond-breaking photochemistry corresponds to the Cl → Cu(II) ligand-to-metal charge transfer transition, unmasking a Cu(I) species [Cu(dmp)2]+ and a Cl atom, thereby serving as a departure point for both Cu(I)- or Cu(II)-based photoredox transformations. No net photochemistry was observed through direct excitation of the ligand-field transitions in the red (λex = 785 or 800 nm), and all combined experiments indicated no evidence of Cu-Cl bond cleavage under these conditions. The underlying visible light-induced homolysis of a metal-ligand bond yielding a one-electron-reduced photosensitizer and a radical species may form the basis for novel transformations initiated by photoinduced homolysis featuring in situ-formed metal-substrate adducts utilizing first row transition metal complexes.

Abstract
We have introduced a new class of stable organometallic Cr reagents (compounds 1-4) that are readily prepared, yet reactive enough to serve as precursors. They were used for ethylene tetramerization catalysis following stoichiometric activation by in situ protonation. This study highlights the importance of balancing stability with reactivity in generating an organometallic precursor that is useful in catalysis. Moreover, precursor 4 allowed for the isolation and crystallographic characterization of a room-temperature stable cationic species, (PNP)CrR2+ (R = o-C6H4(CH2)2OMe, PNP = iPrN(PPh2)2). This complex (5) may be used as a single component precatalyst, without any alkylaluminum reagents. This result provides an unprecedented level of insight into the kind of structures that must be produced from more complicated activation processes.

Abstract
Organometallic chemistry can be considered as a wide area of knowledge that combines concepts of classic organic chemistry, that is, based essentially on carbon, with molecular inorganic chemistry, especially with coordination compounds. Transition-metal methyl complexes probably represent the simplest and most fundamental way to view how these two major areas of chemistry combine and merge into novel species with intriguing features in terms of reactivity, structure, and bonding. Citing more than 500 bibliographic references, this review aims to offer a concise view of recent advances in the field of transition-metal complexes containing M-CH3 fragments. Taking into account the impressive amount of data that are continuously provided by organometallic chemists in this area, this review is mainly focused on results of the last five years. After a panoramic overview on M-CH3 compounds of Groups 3 to 11, which includes the most recent landmark findings in this area, two further sections are dedicated to methyl-bridged complexes and reactivity.

Abstract
β-Diketiminates are widely used supporting ligands for building a range of metal complexes with different oxidation states, structures, and reactivities. This Perspective summarizes the steric and electronic influences of ligand substituents on these complexes, with an eye toward informing the design of new complexes with optimized properties. The backbone and N-aryl substituents can give significant steric effects on structure, reactivity and selectivity of reactions. The electron density on the metal can be tuned by installation of electron withdrawing or donating groups on the β-diketiminate ligand as well. Examples are shown from throughout the transition metal series to demonstrate different types of effects attributable to systematic variation of β-diketiminate ligands.

Abstract
This review summarizes the current status of radical-based transition metal catalyzed reactions in organic chemistry. The underlying features of radical generation from transition metal complexes and radical reactivity in the framework of transition metal catalysis are discussed. The available arsenal to detect radicals in transition metal catalyzed transformations is presented. Available strategies to combine radical intermediates with transition metal catalysis are outlined. In the main part the currently known synthetic methodology of transition metal catalyzed reactions proceeding via radical intermediates is discussed. This part covers catalytic radical reactions involving group 4 to group 7 elements.
