Oxidative addition of 2-bromopyridine derivatives containing a potentially chelating donor group E (E = NMe₂, SMe, SPh) to palladium(0) gives C,E-bound pyridylpalladium(II) complexes. Mono-, di-, and polymeric palladium complexes are obtained depending on the type of functionalization at the pyridyl nitrogen. With a lone pair at nitrogen, dimetallic products are isolated, while...

Chiral bis-5,6-pinene bipyridine type ligands have been used to form, through self-assembly reaction, dinuclear coordination compounds which show a highly diastereoselective formation of double helices with copper(I) and silver(I) as coordination centers.

The [3 + 2] cycloaddition of azides and acetylenes followed by nitrogen quaternization was applied for the generation of novel and highly modular triazolium salts. The selective substitution of the 1,3,4-substitution pattern presets such salts as precursors for a new class of abnormal carbene ligands, thus expanding the family of these high-impact ligands. Metalation of the triazolium salts is...

Bimetallic homonuclear iron(II) and ruthenium(II) N-heterocyclic carbene complexes have been synthesized and crystallographically analyzed. As a spacer ligand for interconnecting the two redox-active metal centers, a ditopic carbene ligand has been used that comprises two carbene sites annelated to benzene. Detailed electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical analyses of the bimetallic...

Palladation of C2-protected diimidazolium salts with Pd(OAc)₂ afforded complexes comprising C4-bound N-heterocyclic dicarbene ligands. The reactivity of these complexes towards Lewis acids (AgBF₄, AgOAc) and Brønsted acids (H₂SO₄, H₃PO₄, HOAc) revealed that abnormal C4 bonding of the carbenes markedly increases the nucleophilicity of the coordinated palladium center as compared to C2...

Direct metalation of C2-protected diimidozolium salts with RhCl₃ or [RhCl(cod)]₂ and KI afforded a series of new rhodium(III) complexes with abnormally C4-bound, cis-chelating NHC ligands. The complexes were isolated as dimetallic species containing two (μ²-I)₃-bridged rhodium(III) centers. In the presence of coordinating ligands such as CH₃CN, PPh₃, or dppe, the dimeric...

A series of new piano-stool iron(II) complexes comprising mono- and bidentate chelating N-heterocyclic carbene ligands [Fe(cp)(CO)(NHC)(L)]X have been prepared and analyzed by spectroscopic, electrochemical, crystallographic, and theoretical methods. Selectively substituting the L site with a series of ligands going from carbene to pyridine to CO suggests that CO is the strongest π...

The intramolecular photocycloaddition of aryl aldehydes containing allene side chains is a versatile reaction as it provides a rapid and efficient access to original complex structures such as 1,3,4-tetrahydro-1,4-epoxy-5-alkylidene-2-benzoxepines 2 and substituted 2-oxa-tricyclo[5.2.2.0]1,5undeca-4,8,10-triene-9-carbaldehydes 3. Novel polycyclic structures are...

A C₂-symmetric enantiopure 4,5-bis(pinene)-2,2′-bipyridine ligand (–)-L was used to investigate the diastereoselectivity in the formation of [ML₃]²⁺ coordination species (M = Fe(II), Ru(II), Os(II), Zn(II), Cd(II), Cu(II), Ni(II)), and [ML₂Cl₂] (M = Ru(II), Os(II)). The X-ray structures of the [ML₃]²⁺ complexes were determined for Δ-[FeL₃](PF₆)₂,...

The enantiomerically pure chiral tris-chelating ligand (+)-(7S,10R)-L(L) comprising three 4,5-pinenobipyridine subunits connected through a mesityl spacer has been synthesized. Complexes of L with RuII and FeII have been prepared and characterised. NMR spectroscopy indicates that...
