Abstract
The reaction of N,N-di(2,6-bis(isopropyl)phenylimino-pyrrolyl-α-methyl)-N-methylamine H2L1 with copper(i) sources such as CuX (X = Cl (1), Br (2), and I (3)) afforded bis(chelated) ionic copper(ii) complexes of the type [CuL1H]X. A similar type of mononuclear structure was obtained with Cu(NO3)2·(H2O)3. Conversely, binuclear copper(ii) complexes [Cu2(μ-L1)(μ-OOCCH3)(μ-OH)](4) and [Cu2(μ-L1H)(μ-OOCPh)(μ-O)] (5) were obtained from the reaction of Cu(O2CR)2·H2O with H2L1. Notably, these reactions in the presence of a base yielded the neutral copper(ii) complex [CuL1] (6). This product was also obtained from the reaction of complex 2 or 4 with NaOH in methanol. All structures feature a dianionic imino-pyrrole motif and a protonated central amine function except 4. The reaction of H2L1 with NiCl2·DME gave the mononuclear complex [NiCl2(L1H2)], 7. In contrast to this, the reaction of the newly synthesized sterically less encumbered ligand N,N-di(phenylimino-pyrrolyl-α-methyl)-N-methylamine H2L2 with NiCl2·DME gave the binuclear complex [NiCl(L2H2)(HOMe)]2[Cl]2 (8). Both 7 and 8 show the amine-azafulvene ligand form and coordination of the central amine. The reaction of complex 7 with NaHBEt3 yielded a neutral complex [NiL1] (8) containing the imino-pyrrole form. In the molecular structures, interesting secondary coordination spheres incorporating guest molecules such as CHCl3 and MeOH in the crystal lattices and the presence of helical enantiomers were observed and analysed. In one case, CHCl3 was found inside an unusual cage-like structure supported by halogen bonds. Preliminary DFT calculations on the geometry of the nickel complex with H2L1 showed that the pentacoordinated tbp geometry is more stable than the square planar geometry.

Abstract
O2 activation at nonheme iron centers is a common motif in biological systems. While synthetic models have provided numerous insights into the reactivity of high-valent iron-oxo complexes related to biological processes, the majority of these complexes are synthesized using alternative oxidants. This report describes O2 activation by an iron(II)-triflate complex of the imino-functionalized tris(pyrrol-2-ylmethyl)amine ligand framework, H3[N(piCy)3]. Initial reaction conditions result in the formation of a mixture of oxidation products including terminal iron(III)-oxo and iron(III)-hydroxo complexes. The relevance of these species to the O2 activation process is demonstrated through reactivity studies and electrochemical analysis of the iron(III)-oxo complex.

Abstract
Nitrate and perchlorate have considerable use in technology, synthetic materials, and agriculture; as a result, they have become pervasive water pollutants. Industrial strategies to chemically reduce these oxyanions often require the use of harsh conditions, but microorganisms can efficiently reduce them enzymatically. We developed an iron catalyst inspired by the active sites of nitrate reductase and (per)chlorate reductase enzymes. The catalyst features a secondary coordination sphere that aids in oxyanion deoxygenation. Upon reduction of the oxyanions, an iron(III)-oxo is formed, which in the presence of protons and electrons regenerates the catalyst and releases water.
