Abstract
Herein, we report the design, synthesis, structure, and electrochemical study of doubly βC-B-N fused Ni(II) porphyrins (1-trans, 1-cis, 2-trans, and 2-cis). These compounds have been synthesized from A2B2 type dipyridyl Ni(II) porphyrins (Ar=Ph for 1 a; Ar=C6F5 for 2 a) via Lewis base-directed electrophilic aromatic borylation reactions. The solution state structures of these compounds have been established using 1H NMR, 11B NMR, 1H-1H COSY, 1H-13C HSQC, and 19F-13C HSQC NMR techniques. Single crystal X-ray analysis have revealed that 1-trans, 1-cis, and 2-trans adopt ruffled conformations, with alternate meso-carbons on the opposite sides of the mean porphyrin plane. The Soret bands in the absorption spectra of the B-N fused molecules are ~40 nm redshifted compared to unfused Ni(II) porphyrin precursors. The B-N fusion have diminished the redox potential of fused porphyrins. Although 1-trans and 1-cis, show four oxidation processes, 2-trans and 2-cis show only three oxidation processes. DFT studies have revealed that the tetrahedral geometry of the boron has induced a twist in the π-conjugation, which destabilizes the HOMO and stabilizes the LUMO in 1-trans, 1-cis, 2-trans, and 2-cis.

Abstract
N-Confused meso-tetrakis(4-carbomethoxyphenyl)porphyrin (1) and its Ni(II) complex (1 a) have been synthesized and utilized for anion sensing studies, and the results are compared with N-confused meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (NCTPP). Anion susceptibilities of 1 and 1 a were investigated using spectroscopic, electrochemical, and DFT studies. Porphyrins 1 and 1 a were able to detect CN- , F- , and ClO4 - ions selectively over the tested set of anions even at ppm level. Interestingly, the addition of ClO4 - ions resulted in fluorescence quenching (turn off) whereas the addition of F- or CN- resulted in fluorescence enhancement (turn on). Notably, the TFA addition resulted in fluorescence quenching, whereas the fluorescence enhancement was observed while adding TBAOH. The higher association constant (Ka ) values with anions, lower detection limit, and shifts in redox potentials are due to the electron-withdrawing effect of the -COOCH3 group at the para-position of the meso-phenyl ring. This electron-withdrawing nature is crucial for the higher affinity towards anions. The anion sensing description in this article may not only unveil the built-in nature of N-confused porphyrins, but may also provide a general proposal for the development of novel anion sensors based on porphyrinoids. The electron-deficient porphyrin framework, large polarisable π-system, and anion binding through the outer NH or a combination of the above factors serve as a foundation for N-confused porphyrin to act as an anion sensor.

Abstract
Two boranes, 1-(dimesitylboryl)anthracene (1) and 1,8-bis(dimesitylboryl)anthracene (2), have been synthesized with the spectrophysical properties showing how the inclusion of one or two boron atoms progressively perturbs the π-system of the anthracene backbone. This perturbation is caused by conjugation of the anthracene-π* orbital with the vacant p-orbital on boron. Additionally, both 1 and 2 have a high affinity for fluoride and cyanide anions which are complexed in a 1 : 1 guest-host ratio. The mono-borane 1 is particularly well-suited for cyanide binding, displaying a binding constant of 3 × 107 in THF. Furthermore, as a result of their unique electronic structures, these boranes display a fluorescence response to fluoride anion characterized by a blue shift in the case of 1 and a red shift in the case of 2.

Abstract
A novel trisarylborane-Bi(III) complex, tris(4-(dimesitylboryl)phenyl)bismuthine [Bi(PhBMes2 )3 ], in which (Ph = phenyl, and Mes = mesityl), was synthesized via the reaction of bismuth (III) chloride (BiCl3 ) with three equivalents of lithiated (4-bromophenyl)- dimesitylborane [BrPhBMes2 ]. The new trisarylbismuthine was characterized by elemental analysis, ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy, and NMR (1 H and 13 C) spectroscopy. The molecular structure of Bi(PhBMes2 )3 in the solid state was determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, which showed short intermolecular C-H···H-C contact. The complex is a fluorescent emitter (λmax = 395 nm) at room temperature and a phosphorescent emitter (λmax = 423 nm) at 77 K, which displayed a long lifetime of 495 ms. The UV-vis transitions were investigated using density function theory (DFT) and time-dependent (TD)-DFT calculations. Natural bond orbital analysis showed that the bismuth (III) center was mainly Lewis acidic in nature.

Abstract
Salen-based indium triads, [{(3-tBu)2-(5-Mes2B)2-salen}In-Me] (1) and [{(3-tBu)2-(5-Mes2Bphenyl)2-salen}In-Me] (2), bearing triarylborane (TAB) units were prepared and fully characterised by NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The major absorption bands of 1 and 2 appeared in the region centred at 347 nm and 374 nm, respectively, and the intense emission spectra were observed in the sky blue (λem = 491 nm for 1) and bluish-green (λem = 498 nm for 2) regions, respectively. The solvatochromism effects in various organic solvents and computational calculation results strongly suggested that these absorption and emission features are mainly attributed to intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) transitions between the salen ligand moieties and the TAB units. Furthermore, UV-vis and photoluminescence (PL) titration experiments by the addition of fluoride anions demonstrated ratiometric quenching patterns in both the absorption and emission spectra, indicating that binding of the fluoride anion to the boron centres interrupts these ICT transitions in each compound. Interestingly, both triads exhibited a gradual red-shifted response in each emission spectrum upon the addition of the fluoride anions, resulting in a dramatic colour-change to yellow. The computational calculation results of the S1 states revealed that these emission-colour change properties arise from the elevation of HOMO levels, which are mainly localised on the TAB moieties, resulting from the fluoride anion binding to the borane centres.

Abstract
Novel salen-Al/triarylborane dyad complexes were prepared and characterized with their corresponding mononuclear compounds. The UV-vis and photoluminescence experiments for dyads exhibited photoinduced energy transfer from borane to the salen-Al moiety in an intramolecular manner. Theoretical calculation and fluoride titration results further supported these intramolecular energy-transfer features.
