Abstract
Coordinatively unsaturated transition-metal compounds stabilized by supplemental electron donation from π-basic ligands are described as "operationally unsaturated". Such complexes are useful analogues of active catalyst structures that readily react with substrate molecules. We report that [Ph2P(C6H4)NCHC(CH3)2]- (L1) effectively stabilizes Ru(II) in an operationally unsaturated form. In the absence of Lewis bases, the 1-azaallyl group of L1 dominantly coordinates through a κ1-N mode, but can readily and reversibly isomerize to an η3-NCC coordination mode to stabilize the metal. As an operationally unsaturated complex, Ru(Cp*)(L1) dimerizes at low temperature. At ambient temperature it rapidly reacts with pyridine or PPh3 to form an adduct. These findings with L1 demonstrate that changes in the hapticity of a 1-azaallyl fragment offer an alternative means to stabilize low-coordinate metals.

Abstract
The reaction of 2-{2-(benzo[1,3]dioxol-5-yl)- diazo}-4-methylphenol (HL) with [Ru(PPh3)3Cl2] in ethanol resulted in the carbonylated ruthenium complex [RuL(PPh3)2(CO)] (1), wherein metal-assisted decarbonylation via in situ ethanol dehydrogenation is observed. When the reaction was performed in acetonitrile, however, the complex [RuL(PPh3)2(CH3CN)] (2) was obtained as the main product, probably by trapping of a common intermediate through coordination of CH3CN to the Ru(II) center. The analogous reaction of HL with [Ir(PPh3)3Cl] in ethanol did not result in ethanol decarbonylation and instead gave the organoiridium hydride complex [IrL(PPh3)2(H)] (3). Unambiguous evidence for the generation of CO via ruthenium-assisted ethanol oxidation is provided by the synthesis of the 13C-labeled complex, [Ru(PPh3)2L(13CO)] (1A) using isotopically labeled ethanol, CH313CH2OH. To summarize all the evidence, a ruthenium-assisted mechanistic pathway for the decarbonylation and generation of alkane via alcohol dehydrogenation is proposed. In addition, the in vitro antiproliferative activity of complexes 1-3 was tested against human cervical (HeLa) and human colorectal adenocarcinoma (HT-29) cell lines. Complexes 1-3 showed impressive cytotoxicity against both HeLa (half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 3.84-4.22 μM) and HT-29 cancer cells (IC50 values between 3.3 and 4.5 μM). Moreover, the complexes were comparatively less toxic to noncancerous NIH-3T3 cells.

Abstract
Chemistry of Schiff base (SB) ligands began in 1864 due to the discovery made by Hugo Schiff (Schiff, H., Justus Liebigs Ann. der Chemie 1864, 131 (1), 118-119). However, there is still a vivid interest in coordination compounds based on imine ligands. The aim of this paper is to review the most recent concepts on construction of homo- and hetero-oligonuclear Schiff base coordination compounds narrowed down to the less frequently considered complexes of platinum group metals (PGM). The combination of SB and PGM in oligonuclear entities has several advantages over mononuclear or polynuclear species. Such complexes usually exhibit better electroluminescent, magnetic and/or catalytic properties than mononuclear ones due to intermetallic interactions and frequently have better solubility than polymers. Various construction strategies of oligodentate imine ligands for coordination of PGM are surveyed including simple imine ligands, non-innocent 1,2-diimines, chelating imine systems with additional N/O/S atoms, classic N2O2-compartmental Schiff bases and their modifications resulting in acyclic fused ligands, macrocycles such as calixsalens, metallohelical structures, nano-sized molecular wheels and hybrid materials incorporating mesoionic species. Co-crystallization and formation of metallophilic interactions to extend the mononuclear entities up to oligonuclear coordination species are also discussed.

Abstract
Three chemical reactions of two 2-aminothioethers and 2-aminothiophenol with CpRu(II)Cl(PPh3)2 (Cp(-) = cyclopentadienyl anion), under identical reaction conditions, are reported. While 2-(methylthio)aniline, H2L(1) and an analogous substrate, 2-(phenylthio)aniline yielded dicationic dinuclear complexes [(PPh3)CpRu(II)(L(3/)L(4))Ru(II)Cp(PPh3)]Cl2 (where L(3) = (4E)-4-(4-imino-3-(methylthio)cyclohexa-2,5-dienylidene)-2-(methylthio)cyclohexa-2,5-dienimine ([1a]Cl2) and L(4) = (4E)-4-(4-imino-3-(phenylthio)cyclohexa-2,5-dienylidene)-2-(phenylthio)cyclohexa-2,5-dienimine ([1b]Cl2)), the reaction with 2-aminothiophenol (H2L(2)) produced a mononuclear complex [(PPh3)CpRu(II)(L(2))]Cl (where L(2) = 6-iminocyclohexa-2,4-dienethione) ([2]Cl). All these complexes are obtained in high yields (65%-75%). Formations of the products from the above reactions involve a similar level of oxidation of the respective substrate, although their courses are completely different. A comparison between the above two chemical transformations are scrutinized thoroughly. Characterizations of these complexes were made using a host of physical methods: X-ray crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), cyclic voltammetry, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT). The complexes [1a]Cl2 and [1b]Cl2 showed intense metal-to-ligand charge transfer transition in the long wavelength region of the spectrum, at 860 and 895 nm, respectively, and displayed two reversible electron transfer (ET) processes at [1a](2+): -0.28 and -0.52 V; [1b](2+): -0.13 and -0.47 V, along with an irreversible ET process at 0.76 and 0.54 V, respectively. The ET processes at negative potentials are due to successive reductions of the bridging ligand, which are characterized by EPR and UV-vis spectroscopy. The one-electron reduced compound, [1a](+), showed a intraligand charge transfer transition (ILCT) at 1530 nm. The complex [2](+) showed a reversible ET process at -0.36 V and two irreversible ET processes at -1.04 and 1.18 V, respectively. DFT calculations were used to support the spectral and redox properties of the complexes and also to throw light on the difference of redox behavior between thioether and thiophenol substrates.
