Abstract
An organophotocatalytic method has been described towards the synthesis of indolines and oxindoles starting from unusual α-chloro amide and N-(2-chlorophenyl)-N-alkyl methacrylamide substrates. This marks a notable improvement since the earlier syntheses utilized iridium and gold catalysts, and involved C-I or C-Br bond cleavage as the initial step. Our photocatalyst is a pincer ligand that can be easily deprotonated to make a very strong reducing agent. The reductive cleavage of the carbon-chloride bond, and subsequent 5-exo-trig ring cyclization, followed by hydrogen atom abstraction, prepare the desired heterocycles under very mild reaction conditions. An atom economic use of KOtBu has been shown to demonstrate the unusual trifunctional role of the latter.

Abstract
A series of iridium(III) triimine complexes incorporating 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine (terpy) and 2,6-bis(thiazol-2-yl)pyridine (dtpy) derivatives were successfully designed and synthesized to investigate the impact of the peripheral rings (pyridine, thiazole) and substituents (thiophene, bithiophene, EDOT) attached to the triimine skeleton on their photophysical properties. The Ir(III) complexes were fully characterized using IR, 1H, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray analysis. Their thermal properties were evaluated using TGA measurements. Photoluminescence spectra of [IrCl3L1-6] were investigated in solution at 298 and 77 K. The experimental studies were accompanied by DFT/TDDFT calculations. The photophysical properties of the synthesized triimine ligands and Ir(III) complexes were studied in detail by electronic absorption and emission. In solution, they exhibited photoluminescence quantum yields ranging from 1.27% to 5.30% depending on the chemical structure. The experimental research included DFT/TDDFT calculations.

Abstract
In this study, we carried out detailed experimental and theoretical investigation on photophysical, electrochemical, and photoisomerization behaviors of a new array of luminescent binuclear Ru(II) complexes derived from a phenylene-vinylene-substituted terpyridyl ligand possessing RT lifetimes within 60.3-410.5 ns. The complexes experienced trans-to-cis isomerization in MeCN on irradiation with visible light, accompanied by significant changes in their absorption and emission spectral profiles. The reverse cis-to-trans process is also possible with the use of ultraviolet (UV) light. On conversion from trans to cis isomers, the emission intensity increases substantially, while for the reverse process, luminescence quenching occurs. Thus, "off-on" and "on-off" emission switching is facilitated upon treatment with visible and UV light alternatively. By the use of chemical oxidants (ceric ammonium nitrate and potassium permanganate) and reductants (metallic sodium) as well as light of appropriate wavelengths, multistate switching phenomena involving reversible oxidation-reduction and trans-cis isomerization have been achieved. Interestingly, the rate of this multistate photoswitching process becomes much faster compared to only two-state trans-cis isomerization of these complexes. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent-DFT (TD-DFT) calculations are also performed to obtain a clear picture of the electronic environment of the complexes and also for the appropriate assignment of absorption and emission spectral bands.

Abstract
A new family of luminescent heteroleptic Ru(II)-terpyridine complexes coupled with stilbene-appended naphthalene, anthracene, and pyrene motifs is reported. Each of the complexes features moderately intense emission at room temperature having a lifetime of 16.7 ns for naphthalene and 11.4 ns for anthracene, while a substantially elevated lifetime of 8.3 μs was observed for the pyrene derivative. All the three complexes display a reversible couple in the positive potential window due to Ru2+/Ru3+ oxidation but multiple reversible and/or quasi-reversible peaks in the negative potential domain because of the reduction of the terpyridine moieties. All the complexes selectively sense F- among the studied anions via the intermediary of different noncovalent interactions. The interaction event is monitored through absorption, emission, and 1H and 19F NMR spectroscopy. Additionally, upon utilizing the stilbene motif, reversible trans-cis isomerization of the complexes has been undertaken upon alternate treatment of visible and UV light so that the complexes can act as potential photomolecular switches. We also carried out the anion sensing characterization of the cis form of the complexes. Theoretical calculation employing density functional theory is also executed for a selective complex (naphthalene derivative) to elucidate different noncovalent interactions that are operative during the complex-fluoride interplay.

Abstract
Recentstudies toward finding more efficient ruthenium metalloligands for photocatalysis applications have shown that the derivatives of the linear [Ru(dqp)2]2+ (dqp: 2,6-di(quinolin-8-yl)-pyridine) complexes hold significant promise due to their extended emission lifetime in the μs time scale while retaining comparable redox potential, extinction coefficients, and absorption profile in the visible region to [Ru(bpy)3]2+ (bpy: 2,2'-bipyridine) and [Ru(tpy)2]2+ (tpy: 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine) complexes. Nevertheless, its photostability in aqueous solution needs to be improved for its widespread use in photocatalysis. Carbon-based supports have arisen as potential solutions for improving photostability and photocatalytic activity, yet their effect greatly depends on the interaction of the metal complex with the support. Herein, we present a strategy for obtaining Ru-polypyridyl complexes covalently linked to aminated reduced graphene oxide (rGO) to generate novel materials with long-term photostability and increased photoactivity. Specifically, the hybrid Ru(dqp)@rGO system has shown excellent photostable behavior during 24 h of continual irradiation, with an enhancement of 10 and 15% of photocatalytic dye degradation in comparison with [Ru(dqp)2]2+ and Ru(tpy)@rGO, respectively, as well as remarkable recyclability. The presented strategy corroborates the potential of [Ru(dqp)2]2+ as an interesting photoactive molecule to produce more advantageous light-active materials by covalent attachment onto carbon-based supports.

Abstract
The synthesis of zwitterionic dithiocarboxylate adducts was achieved by deprotonating various aldiminium or 1,2,3-triazolium salts with a strong base, followed by the nucleophilic addition of the in situ-generated cyclic (alkyl)(amino) or mesoionic carbenes (CAACs or MICs) onto carbon disulfide. Nine novel compounds were isolated and fully characterized by 1H and 13C NMR, FTIR, and HRMS techniques. Moreover, the molecular structures of two CAAC·CS2 and two MIC·CS2 betaines were determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. The analytical data recorded for all these adducts were compared with those reported previously for related NHC·CS2 betaines derived from imidazolinium or (benz)imidazolium salts. Due to the absence of electronic communication between the CS2 unit and the orthogonal heterocycle, all the CAAC·CS2, MIC·CS2, and NHC·CS2 zwitterions displayed similar electronic properties and featured the same bite angle. Yet, their steric properties are liable to ample modifications by varying the exact nature of their cationic heterocycle and its substituents.

Abstract
The ability to synthetically tune the ligand frameworks of redox-active molecules is of critical importance to the economy of solar fuels because manipulating their redox properties can afford control over the operating potentials of sustained electrocatalytic or photoelectrocatalytic processes. The electronic and steric properties of 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine (Terpy) ligand frameworks can be tuned by functional group substitution on ligand backbones, and these correlate strongly to their Hammett parameters. The synthesis of a new series of tridentate meridional ligands of 2,4,6-trisubstituted pyridines that engineers the ability to finely tune the redox potentials of cobalt complexes to more positive potentials than that of their Terpy analogs is achieved by aryl-functionalizing at the four-position and by including isoquinoline at the two- and six-positions of pyridine (Aryl-DiQ). Their cobalt complex syntheses, their electronic properties, and their catalytic activity for carbon dioxide (CO2) reduction are reported and compared to their Terpy analogs. The cobalt derivatives generally experience a positive shift in their redox features relative to the Terpy-based analogs, covering a complementary potential range. Although those evaluated fail to produce any quantifiable products for the reduction of CO2 and suffer from long-term instability, these results suggest possible alternate strategies for stabilizing these compounds during catalysis. We speculate that lower equilibrium association constants to the cobalt center are intrinsic to these ligands, which originate from a steric interaction between protons on the pyridine and isoquinoline moieties. Nevertheless, the new Aryl-DiQ ligand framework has been engineered to selectively tune homoleptic cobalt complexes' redox potentials.

Abstract
Here we report the use of a base metal complex [(tBu pyrpyrr2 )Fe(OEt2 )] (1-OEt2 ) (tBu pyrpyrr2 2- =3,5-tBu2 -bis(pyrrolyl)pyridine) as a catalyst for intermolecular amination of Csp3 -H bonds of 9,10-dihydroanthracene (2 a) using 2,4,6-trimethyl phenyl azide (3 a) as the nitrene source. The reaction is complete within one hour at 80 °C using as low as 2 mol % 1-OEt2 with control in selectivity for single C-H amination versus double C-H amination. Catalytic C-H amination reactions can be extended to other substrates such as cyclohexadiene and xanthene derivatives and can tolerate a variety of aryl azides having methyl groups in both ortho positions. Under stoichiometric conditions the imido radical species [(tBu pyrpyrr2 )Fe{=N(2,6-Me2 -4-tBu-C6 H2 )] (1-imido) can be isolated in 56 % yield, and spectroscopic, magnetometric, and computational studies confirmed it to be an S = 1 FeIV complex. Complex 1-imido reacts with 2 a to produce the ferrous aniline adduct [(tBu pyrpyrr2 )Fe{NH(2,6-Me2 -4-tBu-C6 H2 )(C14 H11 )}] (1-aniline) in 45 % yield. Lastly, it was found that complexes 1-imido and 1-aniline are both competent intermediates in catalytic intermolecular C-H amination.

Abstract
Exploring novel and existing design principles to tune the photochemical and photophysical properties of transition-metal complexes is an important goal in contemporary research. Here, we highlight the influence of constitutional isomers of pyridyl-1,2,3-triazolylidene mesoionic carbene (MIC) ligands on the photophysical and photochemical properties of the corresponding tetracarbonyl group 6 metal complexes (M = Cr, Mo, W). All new complexes [M(C-C)] presented herein incorporate a C-C linked pyridyl-MIC ligand and were fully characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, elemental analysis, and 1H NMR and IR spectroscopy. Detailed photophysical investigations reveal a single emission in the VIS region, which extends into the NIR with lifetimes of up to 3.5 μs in the solid state at lower temperatures. The quantum yields were determined for all three complexes, and, in particular, the W0 complex shows an unusually high quantum yield of 29% compared to the values of 0.02% obtained for the [M(C-N)] isomers investigated in earlier works. Beyond this, the investigated W0 complex also exhibits an emission at 717 nm in a fluid solution. The combination of luminescence and FTIR-step scan spectroscopy with theoretical calculations reveals an emissive 3MLCT state. Irradiation of the presented complexes leads to a clean cleavage of one axial CO ligand. A metastable 16 VE species with a vacant axial coordination site was detected in the solid state at low temperatures. In solution, the respective solvato complexes are formed. A dark reverse reaction is observed, as previously described for the [M(C-N)] analogues. The increased electron density induced by the C-C linked pyridyl-MIC ligand leads to an increased kinetic rate constant for the reformation of the starting species and is also reflected in the lower photodissociation quantum yields.

Abstract
In coordination chemistry and materials science, terpyridine ligands are of great interest, due to their ability to form stable complexes with a broad range of transition metal ions. We report three terpyridine ligands containing different perfluorocarbon (PFC) tails on the backbone and the corresponding FeII and CoII complexes. The CoII complexes display spin crossover close to ambient temperature, and the nature of this spin transition is influenced by the length of the PFC tail on the ligand backbone. The electrochemical properties of the metal complexes were investigated with cyclic voltammetry revealing one oxidation and several reduction processes. The fluorine-specific interactions were investigated by EPR measurements. Analysis of the EPR spectra of the complexes as microcrystalline powders and in solution reveals exchange-narrowed spectra without resolved hyperfine splittings arising from the 59 Co nucleus; this suggests complex aggregation in solution mediated by interactions of the PFC tails. Interestingly, addition of perfluoro-octanol in different ratios to the acetonitrile solution of the sample resulted in the disruption of the F ⋯ ${\cdots }$ F interactions of the tails. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first investigation of fluorine-specific interactions in metal complexes through EPR spectroscopy, as exemplified by exchange narrowing.

Abstract
With the goal of developing a new strategy for the synthesis of luminescent Ru(II) complexes, we have prepared herein a new set of bis-tridentate complexes of the type [(py-bpy-Ph-X)Ru(tpy-PhCH3)]ClO4 (X = -CH3, -CH2Br, and -CHO) incorporating both non-cyclometalated and cyclometalated coordination motifs of two isomeric forms of methylphenyl-terpyridine (tpy-PhCH3). Thorough characterization of the synthesized complexes is carried out using standard analytical tools and single crystal X-ray diffraction. Detailed investigations on their photophysical and electrochemical behaviors are carried out in MeCN. The presence of a carbanionic center in the cyclometalating unit increases the absorption spectral window of the complexes into a longer-wavelength region. The complexes also exhibit room-temperature luminescence in the NIR domain with enhanced excited-state lifetimes (up to 20.1 ns) compared to their non-cyclometalated counterpart, [Ru(tpy-PhCH3)2]2+. In the presence of acid, the non-coordinated nitrogen atom in the secondary coordination sphere of the complexes allows fine-tuning of the absorption and emission spectral properties. Excess acid induces de-coordination of the Ru-C bond, which is signaled by a remarkable alteration of their spectral profiles. Cleavage of the Ru-C bond is also possible upon treating the acidified solution of the complexes with visible light. Restoration of the Ru-C bond is again feasible upon treating the solution with base at an elevated temperature (∼70 °C). In essence, "on-off" and "off-on" switching of emission is facilitated upon alternating treatment of the Ru(II) complexes with acid, base, and temperature. DFT and TD-DFT calculations are also performed for assignments of the spectral bands as well as to understand structural changes associated with the switching behaviors of the complexes.

Abstract
Tridentate ligand-coordinated ruthenium (II) polypyridyl complexes with large N-Ru-N bite angles have been shown to promote ligand field splitting and reduce singlet-triplet state mixing leading to dramatically extended emission quantum yields and lifetimes under ambient conditions. These effects are anticipated to enhance their photoinduced singlet oxygen production, promoting prospects for such complexes as type II phototherapeutics. In this contribution, we examined this putative effect for [Ru(bqp)(bqpCOOEt)]2+, Ru-bqp-ester, a heteroleptic complex containing bqp = [2,6-bi(quinolin-8-yl)pyridine], a well-established large bite angle tridentate ligand, as well as its peptide conjugates [Ru(bqp)(bqpCONH-ahx-FrFKFrFK(Ac)-CONH2)]5+ (Ru-bqp-MPP) and [Ru(bqp) (bqp)(CONH-ahx-RRRRRRRR-CONH2)]10+ (Ru-bqp-R8) that were prepared in an effort to promote live cell/tissue permeability and targeting of the parent. Membrane permeability of both parent and peptide conjugates were compared across 2D cell monolayers; A549, Chinese hamster ovary, human pancreatic cancer (HPAC), and 3D HPAC multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) using confocal microscopy. Both the parent complex and peptide conjugates showed exceptional permeability with rapid uptake in both 2D and 3D cell models but with little distinction in permeability or distribution in cells between the parent or peptide conjugates. Unexpectedly, the uptake was temperature independent and so attributed to passive permeation. Both dark and photo-toxicity of the Ru(II) complexes were assessed across cell types, and the parent showed notably low dark toxicity. In contrast, the parent and conjugates were found to be highly phototoxic, with impressive phototoxic indices (PIs) toward HPAC cell monolayers in particular, with PI values ranging from ∼580 to 760. Overall, our data indicate that the Ru(II) parent complex and its peptide conjugates show promise at both cell monolayers and 3D MCTS as photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy.

Abstract
We present here new synthetic strategies for the isolation of a series of Ru(II) complexes with pyridyl-mesoionic carbene ligands (MIC) of the 1,2,3-triazole-5-ylidene type, in which the bpy ligands (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) of the archetypical [Ru(bpy)3]2+ have been successively replaced by one, two, or three pyridyl-MIC ligands. Three new complexes have been isolated and investigated via NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The incorporation of one MIC unit shifts the potential of the metal-centered oxidation about 160 mV to more cathodic potential in cyclic voltammetry, demonstrating the extraordinary σ-donor ability of the pyridyl-MIC ligand, while the π-acceptor capacities are dominated by the bpy ligand, as indicated by electron paramagnetic resonance spectroelectrochemistry (EPR-SEC). The replacement of all bpy ligands by the pyridyl-MIC ligand results in an anoidic shift of the ligand-centered reduction by 390 mV compared to the well-established [Ru(bpy)3]2+ complex. In addition, UV/vis/NIR-SEC in combination with theoretical calculations provided detailed insights into the electronic structures of the respective redox states, taking into account the total number of pyridyl-MIC ligands incorporated in the Ru(II) complexes. The luminescence quantum yield and lifetimes were determined by time-resolved absorption and emission spectroscopy. An estimation of the excited state redox potentials conclusively showed that the pyridyl-MIC ligand can tune the photoredox activity of the isolated complexes to stronger photoreductants. These observations can provide new strategies for the design of photocatalysts and photosensitizers based on MICs.

Abstract
Proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) was studied for the ground and excited electronic states of a [Ru(terpy)(bpm)(OH2)(PF6)2] complex, Ru-bpm. Cyclic voltammetry measurements show that the Ru(II)-aqua moiety undergoes PCET to form a Ru(IV)-oxo moiety in the anodic region, while the bpm ligand undergoes PCET to form bpmH2 in the cathodic region. The photophysical behavior of Ru-bpm was studied using steady-state and femtosecond transient UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, coupled with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The lowest-lying excited state of Ru-bpm is described as a (Ru → bpm) metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) state, while the metal-centered (MC) excited state was found computationally to be close in energy to the lowest-energy bright MLCT state (MC state was 0.16 eV above the MLCT state). The excited-state kinetics of Ru-bpm were found via transient absorption spectroscopy to be short-lived and were fit well to a biexponential function with lifetimes τ1 = 4 ps and τ2 = 65 ps in aqueous solution. Kinetic isotope effects of 1.75 (τ1) and 1.61 (τ2) were observed for both decay components, indicating that the solvent plays an important role in the excited-state dynamics of Ru-bpm. Based on the pH-dependent studies and the results from prior studies of similar Ru-complexes, we hypothesize that the 3MLCT state forms an excited-state hydrogen-bond adduct with the solvent molecules and that this process occurs with a 4 ps lifetime. The formation of such a hydrogen-bond complex is consistent with the electronic density accumulation at the peripheral N atoms of the bpm moiety in the 3MLCT state. The hydrogen-bonded state 3MLCT decays to the ground state with a 65 ps lifetime. Such a short lifetime is likely associated with the efficient vibrational energy transfer from the 3MLCT state to the solvent.

Abstract
![]()
Five cationic iridium(III)
complexes (1–5) were synthesized
exploiting two triazole-based cyclometalating
ligands, namely, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole
(A) and the corresponding mesoionic carbene 1,3-dimethyl-4-phenyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene (B). From the combination
of these two ligands and the ancillary one, i.e., 4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine (for 1–3) or tert-butyl isocyanide (for 4 and 5), not only the typical bis-heteroleptic complexes
but also the much less explored tris-heteroleptic analogues (2 and 5) could be synthesized. The redox and
emission properties of all of the complexes are effectively fine-tuned
by the different ligands: (i) cyclometalating ligand A induces a stronger highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) stabilization
compared to B and leads to complexes with progressively
narrower HOMO–lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) and
redox gaps, and lower emission energy; (ii) complexes 1–3, equipped with the bipyridine ancillary ligand,
display fully reversible redox processes and emit from predominantly
metal-to-ligand charge transfer (MLCT) states with high emission quantum
yields, up to 60% in polymeric matrix; (iii) complexes 4 and 5, equipped with high-field isocyanide ligands,
display irreversible redox processes and high-energy emission from
strongly ligand-centered triplets with long emission lifetimes but
relatively low quantum yields (below 6%, both in room-temperature
solution and in solid state). This work demonstrates the versatility
of phenyl-triazole derivatives as cyclometalating ligands with different
chelation modes (i.e., C∧N and C∧C:) for the synthesis of photoactive iridium(III) complexes with
highly tunable properties. Triazole-based
cyclometalating ligands serving as both standard
C∧N chelators (as in 4-phenyl-triazole) and C∧C: carbene ones (as in 4-phenyl-triazolylidene) have
been used to synthesize a series of cationic iridium(III) complexes.
Accordingly, unusual tris-heteroleptic complexes could be obtained
by simultaneously exploiting both chelation modes. These ligands allow
fine tuning of the properties of the related complexes, which exhibit
luminescence all the way from blue to red and quantum yields up to
60% in a diluted polymeric matrix at 298 K.

Abstract
N -heterocyclic imines are widely used in transition-metal chemistry, main-group chemistry as well as catalysis, due to their enhanced basicity and nucleophilicity which benefit from their ylidic form. As their analogs, mesoionic N -heterocyclic imines, which feature more highly ylidic form, is still in its infancy though excellent works also achieved. Here we reported the synthesis, characterization and photophysical properties of mesoionic N -heterocyclic imines. TD-DFT are employed to get deeper insight into the mechanism of the photophysical behaviors. The unsubstituted mesoionic N-heterocyclic imines ( 1-3 ) displayed considerable quantum yields (QY: up to 43.8%) and could be potentially applied as luminescent materials.

Abstract
Mesoionic carbenes (MICs) of the 1,2,3-triazolylidene type have established themselves as a popular class of compounds over the past decade. Primary reasons for this popularity are their modular synthesis and their strong donor properties. While such MICs have mostly been used in combination with transition metals, the past few years have also seen their utility together with main group elements. In this paper, we present an overview of the recent developments on this class of compounds that include, among others, (i) cationic and anionic MIC ligands, (ii) the donor/acceptor properties of these ligands with a focus on the several methods that are known for estimating such donor/acceptor properties, (iii) a detailed overview of 3d metal complexes and main group compounds with these MIC ligands, (iv) results on the redox and photophysical properties of compounds based on MIC ligands, and (v) an overview on electrocatalysis, redox-switchable catalysis, and small-molecule activation to highlight the applications of compounds based on MIC ligands in contemporary chemistry. By discussing several aspects from the synthetic, spectroscopic, and application point of view of these classes of compounds, we highlight the state of the art of compounds containing MICs and present a perspective for future research in this field.

Abstract
Brightly emissive platinum(II) complexes (λemission,max = 607-612 nm) of the type RLPtCl are reported, where RL is a cyclometalated N∧C-∧N-coordinating ligand derived from 1,3-di(2-trifluoromethyl-4-phenanthridinyl)benzene (CF3LH) or 1,3-di(2-tert-butyl-4-phenanthridinyl)benzene (tBuLH). Metathesis of the chlorido ligand can be achieved under mild conditions, enabling isolation of ionic compounds with the formula [CF3LPtL']PF6 where L' = pyridine or (4-dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP), as well as the charge-neutral species tBuLPt(C≡C─C6H4─tBu) (C≡C─C6H4─tBu = 4-tert-butylphenylacetylido). Compared with N∧N∧N-ligated Pt(II) complexes that form 5-membered chelates, these compounds all contain 6-membered rings. Expanding the chelate ring size from 5 to 6 has been previously demonstrated to enhance emission in some N∧N∧N-coordinated Pt(II) species─for example, in complexes of 2,6-di(8-quinolinyl)pyridine vs those of 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine─but in related N∧C-∧N-coordinated species, luminescence quantum yields are significantly lower for the 6-membered chelate ring complexes. Here, we demonstrate that site-selective benzannulation of the quinolinyl side-arms can offset the deleterious effect of changing the chelate ring-size and boost photophysical properties such as the quantum yield. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations suggest that benzannulation counterintuitively destabilizes the emissive triplet states compared to the smaller π-system, with the "imine-bridged biphenyl" form of the phenanthridinyl arm helping to buffer against larger molecular distortions, enhancing photoluminescence quantum yields up to 0.09 ± 0.02. The spontaneous formation under aerated conditions of a Pt(IV) derivative (CF3LPtCl3) is also reported, together with its molecular structure in the solid state.

Abstract
We report the synthesis of vanadium(V) oxo complex 1 with a pincer-type dianionic mesoionic carbene (MIC) ligand L1 and the general formula [VOCl(L1)]. A comparison of the structural (SC-XRD), electronic (UV-vis), and electrochemical (cyclic voltammetry) properties of 1 with the benzimidazolinylidene congener 2 (general formula [VOCl(L2)]) shows that the MIC is a stronger donor also for early transition metals with low d-electron population. Since electrochemical studies revealed both complexes to be reversibly reduced, the stronger donor character of MICs was not only demonstrated for the vanadium(V) but also for the vanadium(IV) oxidation state by isolating the reduced vanadium(IV) complexes [Co(Cp*)2][1] and [Co(Cp*)2][2] ([Co(Cp*)2] = decamethylcobaltocenium). The electronic structures of the compounds were investigated by computational methods. Complex 1 was found to be a moderate precursor for salt metathesis reactions, showing selective reactivity toward phenolates or secondary amides, but not toward primary amides and phosphides, thiophenols, or aryls/alkyls donors. Deoxygenation with electron-rich phosphines failed to give the desired vanadium(III) complex. However, treatment of the deprotonated ligand precursor with vanadium(III) trichloride resulted in the clean formation of the corresponding MIC vanadium(III) complex 6, which undergoes a clean two-electron oxidation with organic azides yielding the corresponding imido complexes. The reaction with TMS-N3 did not afford a nitrido complex, but instead the imido complex 10. This study reveals that, contrary to popular belief, MICs are capable of supporting early transition-metal complexes in a variety of oxidation states, thus making them promising candidates for the activation of small molecules and redox catalysis.

Abstract
The development of NIR emitters based on earth-abundant elements is an important goal in contemporary science. We present here Cr(0), Mo(0), and W(0) carbonyl complexes with a pyridyl-mesoionic carbene (MIC) based ligand. A detailed photophysical investigation shows that all the complexes exhibit dual emissions in the VIS and in the NIR region. The emissive excited states are assigned to two distinct triplet states by time-resolved emission and step-scan FTIR spectroscopy at variable temperature, supported by density functional theory. In particular, the NIR emissive triplet state exhibits unprecedented lifetimes of up to 600±10 ns and quantum yields reaching 1.7 ⋅ 10-4 at room temperature. These are the first examples of Cr(0), Mo(0) and W(0) complexes that emit in the NIR II region.

Abstract
Two closely related FeII complexes with 2,6-bis(1-ethyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4yl)pyridine and 2,6-bis(1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene)pyridine ligands are presented to gain new insights into the photophysics of bis(tridentate) iron(ii) complexes. The [Fe(N^N^N)2]2+ pseudoisomer sensitizes singlet oxygen through a MC state with nanosecond lifetime after MLCT excitation, while the bis(tridentate) [Fe(C^N^C)2]2+ pseudoisomer possesses a similar 3MLCT lifetime as the tris(bidentate) [Fe(C^C)2(N^N)]2+ complexes with four mesoionic carbenes.

Abstract
Homoleptic transition-metal complexes of 2,2':6',2″-terpyridine (terpy) and substituted derivatives of the form [M(R-terpy)2]2+ display a wide range of redox potentials that correlate well to the Hammett parameter of the terpy substituents. Less is known about the impact of incorporating a phenyl spacer between the functional group responsible for controlling the electron density of terpy and how that translates to metal complexes of the form [M(4'-aryl-terpy)2]2+, where M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, and Zn. Herein, we report our studies on these complexes revealed a good correlation of redox potentials of both metal- and ligand-centered events with the Hammett parameters of the aryl substituents, regardless of aryl-substitution pattern (i.e., the presence of multiple functional groups, combinations of withdrawing and donating functional groups). The phenyl spacer results in 60-80% attenuation of electron density as compared to the 4'-substituted terpy analogue, depending on the metal and redox couple analyzed. Density functional theory calculations performed on a simple model system revealed a strong correlation between the Hammett parameters and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energies of the corresponding substituted pyridine models, thus serving as an inexpensive predictive tool when coupled with electrochemical data. Overall, these data suggest that such ligand modifications may be used in combination with previous approaches to further fine-tune the redox potentials of homoleptic transition-metal complexes, which may have applications in photochemical and electrochemical catalytic processes.

Abstract
Photoactive metal complexes containing earth-abundant transition metals recently gained interest as photosensitizers in light-driven chemistry. In contrast to the traditionally employed ruthenium or iridium complexes, iron complexes developed to be promising candidates despite the fact that using iron complexes as photosensitizers poses an inherent challenge associated with the low-lying metal-centered states, which are responsible for ultrafast deactivation of the charge-transfer states. Nonetheless, recent developments of strongly σ-donating carbene ligands yielded highly promising systems, in which destabilized metal-centered states resulted in prolonged lifetimes of charge-transfer excited states. In this context, we introduce a series of novel homoleptic Fe-triazolylidene mesoionic carbene complexes. The excited-state properties of the complexes were investigated by time-resolved femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations. Pump wavelength-dependent transient absorption reveals the presence of distinct excited-state relaxation pathways. We relate the excitation-wavelength-dependent branching of the excited-state dynamics into various reaction channels to solvent-dependent photodissociation following the population of dissociative metal centered states upon excitation at 400 nm.

Abstract
This paper deals with the synthesis, characterization, and photophysical behaviors of three Ru(II)-terpyridine complexes derived from a terpyridyl-imidazole ligand (tpy-HImzPh3Me2), wherein a terpyridine moiety has been coupled with a dimethylbenzil unit through a phenylimidazole spacer. The three complexes display strong emission at RT having excited-state lifetimes in the range of 2.3-43.7 ns, depending upon the co-ligand present and the solvents used. Temperature-dependent emission spectral measurements have demonstrated that the energy separation between emitting metal-to-ligand charge transfer state and non-emitting metal-centered state is increased relative to that of [Ru(tpy)2]2+. In contrast to our previously studied Ru(II) complexes containing similar terpyridyl-imidazole motif but differing by peripheral methyl groups, significant enhancement of RT emission intensity and quantum yield and remarkable increase of emission lifetime occur for the present complexes upon protonation of the imidazole nitrogen(s) with perchloric acid. Additionally, by exploiting imidazole NH motif(s), we have examined their anion recognition behaviors in organic and aqueous media. Interestingly, the complexes are capable of visually recognizing cyanide ions in aqueous medium up to the concentration limit of 10-8 M. Computational studies involving density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT methods have been carried out to obtain insights into their electronic structures and to help with the assignment of absorption and emission bands.

Abstract
We report on the convenient synthesis of a CNC pincer ligand composed of carbazole and two mesoionic carbenes, as well as the corresponding lithium- and magnesium complexes. Mono-deprotonation affords a rare "naked" amide anion. In contrast to the proligand and its mono-deprotonated form, tri-deprotonated s-block complexes show bright luminescence, and their photophysical properties were therefore investigated by absorption- and luminescence spectroscopy. They reveal a quantum yield of 16% in solution at ambient temperature. Detailed quantum-chemical calculations assist in rationalizing the emissive properties based on an Intra-Ligand-Charge-Transfer (ILCT) between the carbazolido- and mesoionic carbene ligands. (Earth-)alkali metals prevent the distortion of the ligand following excitation and, thus, by avoiding non-radiative deactivation support bright luminescence.

Abstract
Design, synthesis, and applications of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are among the most salient fields of research in modern inorganic and materials chemistry. As the structure and physical properties of MOFs are mostly dependent on the organic linkers or ligands, the choice of ligand system is of utmost importance in the design of MOFs. One such crucial organic linker/ligand is terpyridine (tpy), which can adopt various coordination modes to generate an enormous number of metal-organic frameworks. These frameworks generally carry physicochemical characteristics induced by the π-electron-rich (basically N-electron-rich moiety) terpyridines. In this minireview, the construction of 3D MOFs associated with symmetrical terpyridines is discussed. These ligands can be easily derivatized at the lateral phenyl (4'-phenyl) position and incorporate additional organic functionalities. These functionalities lead to some different binding modes and form higher dimensional (3D) frameworks. Therefore, these 3D MOFs can carry multiple features along with the characteristics of terpyridines. Some properties of these MOFs, like photophysical, chemical selectivity, photocatalytic degradation, proton conductivity, and magnetism, etc. have also been discussed and correlated with their frameworks.

Abstract
We present herein anionic borate-based bi-mesoionic carbene compounds of the 1,2,3-triazol-4-ylidene type that undergo C-N isomerization reactions. The isomerized compounds are excellent ligands for CoII centers. Strong agostic interactions with the "C-H"-groups of the cyclohexyl substituents result in an unusual low-spin square planar CoII complex, which is unreactive towards external substrates. Such agostic interactions are absent in the complex with phenyl substituents on the borate backbone. This complex displays a high-spin tetrahedral CoII center, which is reactive towards external substrates including dioxygen. To the best of our knowledge, this is also the first investigation of agostic interactions through single-crystal EPR spectroscopy. We conclusively show here that the structure and properties of these CoII complexes can be strongly influenced through interactions in the secondary coordination sphere. Additionally, we unravel a unique ligand rearrangement for these classes of anionic mesoionic carbene-based ligands.

Abstract
High-performance electronic materials and redox catalysts often rely on fast rates of intermolecular electron transfer (IET). Maximizing IET rates requires strong electronic coupling (HDA) between the electron donor and acceptor, yet universal structure-property relationships governing HDA in outer-sphere IET reactions have yet to be developed. For ground-state IET reactions, HDA is reasonably approximated by the extent of overlap between the frontier donor and acceptor orbitals involved in the electron-transfer reaction. Intermolecular interactions that encourage overlap between these orbitals, thereby creating a direct orbital pathway for IET, have a strong impact on HDA and, by extension, the IET rates. In this Forum Article, we present a set of intuitive molecular design strategies employing this direct orbital pathway principle to maximize HDA for IET reactions. We highlight how the careful design of redox-active molecules anchored to solid semiconducting substrates provides a powerful experimental platform for elucidating how electronic structure and specific intermolecular interactions affect IET reactions.

Abstract
The photophysical properties of a series of T‐shaped coinage d10 metal complexes, supported by a bis(mesoionic carbene)carbazolide (CNC) pincer ligand, are explored. The series includes a rare new example of a tridentate T‐shaped AgI complex. Post‐complexation modification of the AuI complex provides access to a linear cationic AuI complex following ligand alkylation, or the first example of a cationic square planar AuIII−F complex from electrophilic attack on the metal centre. Emissions ranging from blue (CuI) to orange (AgI) are obtained, with variable contributions of thermally‐dependent fluorescence and phosphorescence to the observed photoluminescence. Green emissions are observed for all three gold complexes (neutral T‐shaped AuI, cationic linear AuI and square planar cationic AuIII). The higher quantum yield and longer decay lifetime of the linear gold(I) complex are indicative of increased phosphorescence contribution.
