Abstract
Three cationic Gold(I)-NHC complexes with potential anticancer properties were studied using DFT with B3LYP functional in combination with two basis sets, LanL2DZ and SDD. Obtained equilibrium geometries and computed IR spectra were found in excellent agreement with previously reported x-ray structures and experimental IR spectral data. NBO population analysis showed gold(I) has a charge deficiency of 0.26-0.30 e. All three complex cations are polar, with dipole moment values ranging from 6.8 to 7.4 Debye. Regardless of some structural differences in their co-ligands, all three complex cations have remarkably similar HOMO-LUMO energy gaps, with values ranging from 5.2 to 5.4 eV, confirming they are chemically stable and that they share an almost identical stability. Long-range intramolecular interactions Au ⋅⋅⋅H-X (X=N or C) in all three cationic complexes were identified. Both basis sets employed in this study were found equally effective in producing reliable results.

Abstract
N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have emerged as promising ligands for stabilizing metallic complexes, nanoclusters, nanoparticles (NPs) and surfaces. The carbon-metal bond between NHCs and metal atoms plays a crucial role in determining the resulting material's stability, reactivity, function, and electronic properties. Using Raman spectroscopy coupled with density functional theory calculations, we investigate the nature of carbon-metal bonding in NHC-silver and NHC-gold complexes as well as their corresponding NPs. While low wavenumbers are inaccessible to standard infrared spectroscopy, Raman detection reveals previously unreported NHC-Au/Ag bond-stretching vibrations between 154-196 cm-1. The computationally efficient r2SCAN-3c method allows an excellent correlation between experimental and predicted Raman spectra which helps calibrate an accurate description of NHC-metal bonding. While π-backbonding should stabilize the NHC-metal bond, conflicting reports for the presence and absence of π-backbonding are seen in the literature. This debate led us to further investigate experimental and theoretical results to ultimately confirm and quantify the presence of π-backbonding in these systems. Experimentally, an observed decrease in the NHC's CN stretching due to the population of the π* orbital is a good indication for the presence of π-backbonding. Using energy decomposition analysis - natural orbitals for chemical valence (EDA-NOCV), our calculations concur and quantify π-backbonding in these NHC-bound complexes and NPs. Surprisingly, we observe that NPs are less stabilized by π-backbonding compared to their respective complexes-a result that partially explains the weaker NHC-NP bond. The protocol described herein will help optimize metal-carbon bonding in NHC-stabilized metal complexes, nanoparticles and surfaces.

Abstract
The prominent role of gold-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes in numerous research areas such as homogeneous (photo)catalysis, medicinal chemistry and materials science has prompted organometallic chemists to design gold-based synthons that permit access to target complexes through simple synthetic steps under mild conditions. In this review, the main gold-NHC synthons employed in organometallic synthesis are discussed. Mechanistic aspects involved in their synthesis and reactivity as well as applications of gold-NHC synthons as efficient pre-catalysts, antitumor agents and/or photo-emissive materials are presented.

Abstract
Since their first discovery, N-heterocyclic carbenes have had a significant impact on organometallic chemistry. Due to their nature as strong σ-donor and π-acceptor ligands, they are exceptionally well suited to stabilize Au(I) and Au(III) complexes in biological environments. Over the last decade, the development of rationally designed NHCAu(I/III) complexes to specifically target DNA has led to a new “gold rush” in bioinorganic chemistry. This review aims to summarize the latest advances of NHCAu(I/III) complexes that are able to interact with DNA. Furthermore, the latest advancements on acyclic diamino carbene gold complexes with anticancer activity are presented as these typically overlooked NHC alternatives offer great additional design possibilities in the toolbox of carbene-stabilized gold complexes for targeted therapy.

Abstract
The electronic properties of aluminyl anions have been reported to be strictly related to those of carbenes, which are well-known to be easily tunable via selected structural modifications imposed on their backbone. Since peculiar reactivity of gold-aluminyl complexes towards carbon dioxide has been reported, leading to insertion of CO2 into the Au-Al bond, in this work the electronic structure and reactivity of Au-Al complexes with different aluminyl scaffolds have been systematically studied and compared to carbene analogues. The analyses reveal that, instead, aluminyls and carbenes display a very different behavior when bound to gold, with the aluminyls forming an electron-sharing and weakly polarized Au-Al bond, which turns out to be poorly modulated by structural modifications of the ligand. The reactivity of gold-aluminyl complexes towards CO2 shows, both qualitatively and quantitatively, similar reaction mechanisms, reflecting the scarce tunability of their electronic structure and bond nature. This work provides further insights and perspectives on the properties of the aluminyl anions and their behavior as coordination ligands.

Abstract
Solid supported or ligand capped gold nanomaterials (AuNMs) emerged as versatile and recyclable heterogeneous catalysts for a broad variety of conversions in the ongoing catalytic 'gold rush'. Existing at the border of homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, AuNMs offer the potential to merge high catalytic activity with significant substrate selectivity. Owing to their strong binding towards the surface atoms of AuMNs, NHCs offer tunable activation of surface atoms while maintaining selectivity and stability of the NM even under challenging conditions. This work summarizes well-defined catalytically active NHC capped AuNMs including spherical nanoparticles and atom-precise nanoclusters as well as the important NHC design choices towards activity and (stereo-)selectivity enhancements.

Abstract
We have prepared and characterized a series of unprecedented group 6-group 11, N2-bridged, heterobimetallic [ML4(η1-N2)(μ-η1:η1-N2)Au(NHC)]+ complexes (M = Mo, W, L2 = diphosphine) by treatment of trans-[ML4(N2)2] with a cationic gold(I) complex [Au(NHC)]+. The adducts are very labile in solution and in the solid, especially in the case of molybdenum, and decomposition pathways are likely initiated by electron transfers from the zerovalent group 6 atom to gold. Spectroscopic and structural parameters point to the fact that the gold adducts are very similar to Lewis pairs formed out of strong main-group Lewis acids (LA) and low-valent, end-on dinitrogen complexes, with a bent M-N-N-Au motif. To verify how far the analogy goes, we computed the electronic structures of [W(depe)2(η1-N2)(μ-η1:η1-N2)AuNHC]+ (10W+) and [W(depe)2(η1-N2)(μ-η1:η1-N2)B(C6F5)3] (11W). A careful analysis of the frontier orbitals of both compounds shows that a filled orbital resulting from the combination of the π* orbital of the bridging N2 with a d orbital of the group 6 metal overlaps in 10W+ with an empty sd hybrid orbital at gold, whereas in 11W with an sp3 hybrid orbital at boron. The bent N-N-LA arrangement maximizes these interactions, providing a similar level of N2 "push-pull" activation in the two compounds. In the gold case, the HOMO-2 orbital is further delocalized to the empty carbenic p orbital, and an NBO analysis suggests an important electrostatic component in the μ-N2-[Au(NHC)]+ bond.

Abstract
Seven gold(I) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes were synthesized, characterized, and identified as suitable precursors for focused electron beam-induced deposition (FEBID). Several variations on the core Au(NHC)X moiety were introduced, that is, variations of the NHC ring (imidazole or triazole), of the alkyl N-substituents (Me, Et, or iPr), and of the ancillary ligand X (Cl, Br, I, or CF3). The seven complexes were tested as FEBID precursors in an on-substrate custom setup. The effect of the substitutions on deposit composition and growth rate indicates that the most suitable organic ligand for the gold precursor is triazole-based, with the best deposit composition of 15 atom % gold, while the most suitable anionic ligand is the trifluoromethyl group, leading to a growth rate of 1 × 10-2 nm3/e-.

Abstract
The first palladium organometallic compounds bearing N-trifluoromethyl N-heterocyclic carbenes have been synthesized. These η3 -allyl complexes are potent antiproliferative agents against different cancer lines (for the most part, IC50 values fall in the range 0.02-0.5 μm). By choosing 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) as co-ligand, we can improve the selectivity toward tumor cells, whereas the introduction of 2-methyl substituents generally reduces the antitumor activity slightly. A series of biochemical assays, aimed at defining the cellular targets of these palladium complexes, has shown that mitochondria are damaged before DNA, thus revealing a behavior substantially different from that of cisplatin and its derivatives. We assume that the specific mechanism of action of these organometallic compounds involves nucleophilic attack on the η3 -allyl fragment. The effectiveness of a representative complex, 4 c, was verified on ovarian cancer tumoroids derived from patients. The results are promising: unlike carboplatin, our compound turned out to be very active and showed a low toxicity toward normal liver organoids.

Abstract
The good performance of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), in terms of versatility and selectivity, has called the attention of experimentalists and theoreticians attempting to understand their electronic properties. Analyses of the Au(I)-C bond in [(NHC)AuL]+/0 (L stands for a neutral or negatively charged ligand), through the Dewar-Chatt-Duncanson model and the charge displacement function, have revealed that NHC is not purely a σ-donor but may have a significant π-acceptor character. It turns out, however, that only the σ-donation bonding component strongly correlates with one specific component of the chemical shielding tensor. Here, in extension to earlier works, a current density analysis, based on the continuous transformation of the current density diamagnetic zero approach, along a series of [(NHC)AuL]+/0 complexes is presented. The shielding tensor is decomposed into orbital contributions using symmetry considerations together with a spectral analysis in terms of occupied to virtual orbital transitions. Analysis of the orbital transitions shows that the induced current density is largely influenced by rotational transitions. The orbital decomposition of the shielding tensor leads to a deeper understanding of the ligand effect on the magnetic response properties and the electronic structure of (NHC)-Au fragments. Such an orbital decomposition scheme may be extended to other magnetic properties and/or substrate-metal complexes.

Abstract
Imidazolium-based ionic liquids have the ability to undergo a variety of chemical reactions through an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) intermediate, which has expanded the chemical toolbox for new applications. Despite their uses and exploration, the carbene-forming properties and applications of their polymeric congeners, poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs), is still underdeveloped. Herein, we explore the NHC-forming properties of a theophylline-derived PIL for nanogel synthesis. Using silver oxide as both the carbene-forming reagent and cross-linker, nanogels containing individually stabilized ions can be created with different sizes and morphology, including large "galaxy-like" superstructures. Using high-resolution TEM techniques, we directly observed the sub-nanometer structure of these constructs. These features combined exemplify the unique chemistry of poly-NHCs for single-metal-ion-stabilization nanogel design.

Abstract
We studied the influence of changing the degree of fluorination in eight new gold(i) derivatives containing both JohnPhos phosphine and polyfluorinated thiolates: [Au(SRF)(JPhos)], JPhos = P(C6H4-C6H5)(t-But)2 and RF = C6F5 (1), C6HF4 (2), C6H3F2-3,5 (3), C6H3F2-2,4 (4), C6H4F-2 (5), C6H4F-3 (6), C6H4F-4 (7) and CF3 (8). We determined the molecular and crystal structures of all new compounds by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Later, we characterised the chemical bonding scenario with quantum chemical topology tools, specifically the Quantum Theory of Atoms in Molecules (QTAIM) and the analysis of the NCI-index. Our QTAIM results indicate that while the linear S-Au-P moiety is unaffected by the variation of the fluorine content on the thiolates and that Au-S and Au-P bond strengths are mostly constant for all compounds in the series, the π character of gold bonds seems to be modified by the fluorination of the substituents at the thiolate ligand. Besides, the examination of the NCI-index reveals the presence of weak Au-πPhenyl non-covalent interactions in all compounds. Overall, this study shows the relevance of (i) the π-backbonding properties of the metal centre and (ii) different non-covalent interactions in the stability of JohnPhos gold(i) compounds.

Abstract
Abstract
We computationally investigated the structure and bonding situation of bis-gold chloride complexes, (AuCl)2, containing N-heterocyclic carbenes and analogues, called tetrylenes [(AuCl)2-NHEMe] (Au2-NHE) with E=C to Pb, using density functional theory (DFT) at the BP86 level with the basis sets def2-SVP, def2-TZVPP, and TZ2P+. The nature of the (AuCl)2-NHEMe bond in the Au2-NHE complexes was analyzed using charge and energy decomposition methods. The calculated equilibrium structures of the Au2-NHE complexes showed that the tetrylene ligands, NHEMe (E=C to Ge), are bonded in a head-on fashion to the bis-gold chloride fragment, (AuCl)2, and that the structure of Au2-NHSn contains a distorted head-on NHSn ligand, and the NHPb ligand is bonded in a side-on mode to the bis-gold chloride fragment, (AuCl)2. The theoretical calculation of bond dissociation energy (BDE) suggests that the bis-gold chloride-NHEMe bond strength increases from Au2-NHC to Au2-NHSi and then significantly decreases from Au2-NHSi to Au2-NHSn, and the strongest bond is exhibited for Au2-NHPb. The EDA-NOCV results and NOCV pairs indicate that the NHEMe ligand in the Au2-NHE complexes is a strong σ-donor and a weak π-acceptor, as well as a very weak π-donor (AuCl)2←{NHEMe}. The trend in the Au-E bond strength resulted from the increase in (AuCl)2←NHEMe donation. The results of this study may establish an interesting class of compounds worthy of further study.

Abstract
The nature of the gold(I)-alkene bond in [(NHC)Au(alkene)](+) complexes (where NHC is the N-heterocyclic carbene 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)imidazole-2-ylidine and its derivatives) has been studied using density functional theory. By utilization of a series of electron-withdrawing and electron-donating substituents ranging from -NO2 to -NH2, an examination of substituent effects has been undertaken with 4-substituted NHC ligands, monosubstituted ethylene derivatives, and 4-substituted styrene derivatives. Natural population, natural bond orbital (NBO), molecular orbital, and bond energy decomposition analysis (EDA) methods have been used to quantify a number of important parameters, including the charge of the coordinated alkenes and the magnitude of alkene→[(NHC)Au](+) and [(NHC)Au](+)→alkene electron donation. EDA methods have also been used to quantify the strength of the [(NHC)Au](+)-(alkene) bond and the impact of both ligand and alkene substitution on different components of the interaction, including polarization, orbital, electrostatic, and Pauli repulsive contributions. Finally, molecular orbital analysis has been used to understand the activation of the alkenes in terms of orbital composition and stabilization within the [(NHC)Au(alkene)](+) complexes relative to the free alkenes. These results provide important insight into the fundamental nature of gold(I)-alkene bonding and the impact of both ligand and alkene substitution on the electronic structure of these complexes.
