Abstract
Tuning the spin state of metal carbynes, which have broad applications in organic synthesis and material science, presents a formidable challenge for modern chemists as the strong field nature of carbyne ligands dictates low-spin ground spin states (S = 0 or 1/2) for known metal carbynes. Through the oxidative addition reaction of a low-coordinate iron(0) N-heterocyclic carbene complex with the C-S bond of a thioazole-2-ylidene, we synthesized the first triplet (S = 1) metal terminal carbyne, an iron cyclic carbyne complex. Different from the classical metal carbynes, the triplet complex features an LXZ-type carbyne ligand and a weak Fe≡C triple bond, which endow it with the unique reactivity pattern of facile carbyne coupling, weak affinity toward nucleophiles, and facial addition reactions with electrophiles.

Abstract
Strain and antiaromaticity in compounds are recognized as two substantial destabilizing features, and consequently, realization of dual destabilizing features in a single molecule is challenging and far more difficult in a single ring. Moreover, transformation of an antiaromatic framework to different antiaromatic or aromatic species is a significant subject in antiaromatic chemistry and has attracted increasing interest. In this work, we isolated a highly strained antiaromatic metallacycle in which a cyclic metal vinylidene unit is embedded. Computational studies revealed its ring strain energies and antiaromatic character and showed that the metal incorporation and the phosphonium substituents play a crucial role in its stabilization. The mechanism of its formation has been illustrated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations and the isolation of a key intermediate. We further discovered diverse reactivities and structural reshuffling of this unusual strained antiaromatic complex according to its two destabilizing characters. We obtained two isomers of metallaindenes fused with oxiranes from the direct oxidation of the metal vinylidene or by nucleophilic addition to an isolated metallacyclocumulene formed by the reaction of metal vinylidene with hydroxide ion, achieving a reconfiguration of the antiaromatic framework. Transformations of the antiaromatic metallacycle by electrophiles to various aromatic metallaindynes have been achieved, and that a condensed Fukui function was employed to confirm the regioselectivity of the electrophilic additions, and the acid/base-induced aromaticity switch along with tunable photophysical properties were investigated. These interesting transformations not only enrich the chemistry of metal vinylidenes and antiaromatics and could also perform potentially as switchable optical materials.

Abstract
![]()
An unusual 1,3-hydrogen shift from the metal center to the Cβ atom of the C3-chain of the allenylidene
ligand in a hydride-osmium(II)-allenylidene complex is the beginning
of several interesting transformations in the cumulene. The hydride-osmium(II)-allenylidene
complex was prepared in two steps, starting from the tetrahydride
dimer [(Os(H···H){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]})2(μ-Cl)2][BF4]2 (1). Complex 1 reacts with 1,1-diphenyl-2-propyn-1-ol to give the hydride-osmium(II)-alkenylcarbyne
[OsHCl(≡CCH=CPh2){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]}]BF4 (2), which yields OsHCl(=C=C=CPh2){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (3) by selective abstraction of the Cβ–H hydrogen atom of the alkenylcarbyne ligand
with KtBuO. Complex 3 is
metastable. According to results of DFT calculations, the migration
of the hydride ligand to the Cβ atom of the cumulene
has an activation energy too high to occur in a concerted manner.
However, the migration can be catalyzed by water, alcohols, and aldehydes.
The resulting alkenylcarbyne-osmium(0) intermediate is unstable and
evolves into a 7:3 mixture of the hydride-osmium(II)-indenylidene
OsHCl(=CIndPh){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (4) and the osmanaphthalene
OsCl(C9H6Ph){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (5). Protonation
of 4 with HBF4 leads to the elongated dihydrogen
complex [OsCl(η2-H2)(=CIndPh){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]}]BF4 (6), while the protonation
of 5 regenerates 2. In contrast to 4, complex 6 evolves to a half-sandwich indenyl
derivative, [Os(η5-IndPh)H{κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]}][BF4]Cl
(7). Phenylacetylene also provokes the 1,3-hydrogen shift
in 3. However, it does not participate in the migration.
In contrast to water, alcohols, and aldehydes, it stabilizes the resulting
alkenylcarbyne to afford [Os(≡CCH=CPh2)(η2-HC≡CPh){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]}]Cl (8).

Abstract
The acyclic organic alkynes and carbyne bonds exhibit linear shapes. Metallabenzynes and metallapentalynes are six- or five-membered metallacycles containing carbynes, whose carbine-carbon bond angles are less than 180°. Such distortion results in considerable ring strain, resulting in the unprecedented reactivity compared with acyclic carbynes. Meanwhile, the aromaticity of these metallacycles would stabilize the ring system. The fascinating combination of ring strain and aromaticity would lead to interesting reactivities. This mini review summarized recent findings on the reactivity of the metal-carbon triple bonds and the aromatic ring system. In the case of metallabenzynes, aromaticity would prevail over ring strain. The reactions are similar to those of organic aromatics, especially in electrophilic reactions. Meanwhile, fragmentation of metallacarbynes might be observed via migratory insertion if the aromaticity of metallacarbynes is strongly affected. In the case of metallapentalynes, the extremely small bond angle would result in high reactivity of the carbyne moiety, which would undergo typical reactions for organic alkynes, including interaction with coinage metal complexes, electrophilic reactions, nucleophilic reactions and cycloaddition reactions, whereas the strong aromaticity ensured the integrity of the bicyclic framework of metallapentalynes throughout all reported reaction conditions.

Abstract
Since the prediction of the existence of metallabenzenes in 1979, metallaaromatic chemistry has developed rapidly, due to its importance in both experimental and theoretical fields. Now six major types of metallaromatic compounds, metallabenzenes, metallabenzynes, heterometallaaromatics, dianion metalloles, metallapentalenes and metallapentalynes (also termed carbolongs), and spiro metalloles, have been reported and extensively studied. Their parent organic analogues may be aromatic, non-aromatic, or even anti-aromatic. These unique systems not only enrich the large family of aromatics, but they also broaden our understanding and extend the concept of aromaticity. This review provides a comprehensive overview of metallaaromatic chemistry. We have focused on not only the six major classes of metallaaromatics, including the main-group-metal-based metallaaromatics, but also other types, such as metallacyclobutadienes and metallacyclopropenes. The structures, synthetic methods, and reactivities are described, their applications are covered, and the challenges and future prospects of the area are discussed. The criteria commonly used to judge the aromaticity of metallaaromatics are presented.

Abstract
Metalla-aromatics are important complexes that show unique properties owing to their highly conjugated systems, which show Hückel or Möbius aromaticity. Recently, several metalla-aromatics showing spiro-aromaticity or σ-aromaticity have been reported. Herein, we report the isolation of the first cyclopropametallanaphthalenes, in which the metallacyclopropene ring shows σ-aromaticity and weak hyperconjugative aromaticity. The reaction of OsCl2 (PPh3 )3 with o-ethynylphenyl alkynes in the presence of PPh3 followed by protonation with HCl yielded the first cyclopropametallanaphthalenes. The reaction mechanism and the aromaticity were also investigated by density functional theory studies.

Abstract
Metallaaromatics can be broadly defined as aromatic compounds in which one of the ring atoms is a transition metal. The metallabenzenes are one important class of these compounds that has undergone extensive study recently. Closely related species such as fused-ring metallabenzenes, heterometallabenzenes, π-coordinated metallabenzenes and metallabenzynes have also attracted considerable attention. Although many metallaaromatics can be considered as metalla-analogues of classic organic aromatic compounds, this is not always the case. Recent seminal studies have shown that metallapentalenes and metallapentalynes, which are metalla-analogues of the anti-aromatic compounds pentalene and pentalyne, are in fact aromatic and highly stable. Very unusual spiro-metallaaromatic compounds have also recently been isolated. In this concepts article, key features of all these intriguing metallaaromatic compounds are discussed with reference to the structural, spectroscopic, reactivity and theoretical studies that have been undertaken. These compounds continue to generate much interest, not only because of the contributions they make to fundamental chemical understanding, but also because of the promise of possible practical applications.

Abstract
A detailed quantum mechanical study on the role of transition metal fragments towards the epoxidation reaction of metallabenzynes (1M, M = Fe, Ru, Os) to give metallabenzyne epoxide or metallabenzooxirene (2M), followed by the Wolff type 1,2-rearrangement to give metal carbonyls (4M), has been carried out at the M06/def2-TZVPP//BP86/def2-SVP level of theory. The epoxide or oxirene product (2A) of linear alkynes like acetylene is unstable and converts to a ketene (4A) by highly exothermic (-78.7 kcal mol-1) Wolff rearrangement via an oxocarbene (3A) intermediate. The epoxide product of cyclic alkynes like benzyne (2C) is comparatively more stable than benzooxocarbene (3C), yet it undergoes rearrangement to cyclopentadienylketene (4C) through Wolff type ring contraction reactions (-65.3 kcal mol-1). The replacement of one of the carbyne carbons in benzyne by 14 VE metal fragment M(PH3)2Cl2, M = Fe, Ru and Os enhances the stability of the 18 VE metallabenzyne epoxide product (2M, -88.1 kcal mol-1 for 2Fe, -87.2 kcal mol-1 for 2Ru and -82.8 kcal mol-1 for 2Os) as compared to the 16 VE metallacyclohexadienone (3M). The ring contracted 18 VE product of 2M is a carbonyl bridged metallacyclopentadienyl complex (4M, M = Fe, Ru and Os). Even though this interconversion is thermodynamically favourable, it involves a high-energy barrier (19.3, 28.1 and 27.9 kcal mol-1 for 2Fe, 2Ru and 2Os, respectively). However, the hepta-coordinated (5M) terminal metallacyclopentadienyl carbonyl analogues of ketene (4A/4C) are not minima on the potential energy surface.
