Both tri- and tetra(ethylene glycol) linked bis-chromium carbene complexes have been synthesized. These carbene complexes were photolyzed with N-protected imidazolines to give protected azapenams. These were transformed into polyether-linked basket dioxocyclams 4a,b and bis-dioxocyclams 5a,b. These compounds have cavities for the complexation of both "hard" and "soft" metal ions. The complexes of Ni, Ba, and Gd were synthesized.

The strict connections/interactions between microbial infections and cancer are nowadays widely accepted. Hence, the dual (or multiple) targeting of microbial infections and cancer is an essential issue to be addressed. In this context, metal complexes have gained considerable importance and effectiveness in medicinal chemistry.

In this study, we report the first example of acyclic (amino)(N-pyridinium)carbenoid gold(III) complexes synthesized via a coupling reaction between 2-pyridylselenyl chloride and Au(I)-bound isonitriles. The reaction involves an initial oxidative addition of the Se-Cl moiety to Au(I), followed by the nucleophilic addition of the pyridine fragment to the isonitrile's C≡N bond, furnishing a metallacycle. Importantly, this is the first example of the pyridine acting as a nucleophile towards metal-bound isonitriles.

Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography has enabled significant reductions in device dimensions but is often limited by capillary force-driven pattern collapse in conventional wet processes. Recent dry-development approaches, while promising, frequently require toxic etchants or specialized equipment, limiting their broader applicability and highlighting the need for more sustainable, cost-effective alternatives. In this study, highly reactive, etchant-free dry-developable EUV photoresists using N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-based metal-ligand complexes, achieving half-saturation at EUV doses of 8.

ConspectusThe advancement of synthetic methodologies is fundamentally driven by a deeper understanding of the structure-reactivity relationships of reactive key intermediates. Carbyne anions are compounds featuring a monovalent anionic carbon possessing four nonbonding valence electrons, which were historically confined to theoretical constructs or observed solely within the environment of gas-phase studies. These species possess potential for applications across diverse domains of synthetic chemistry and ancillary fields.

N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-based phosphorescent iridium complexes have attracted extensive attention due to their good optical properties and high stability in recent years. However, currently reported NHC-based iridium complexes can easily achieve emission of blue, green, or even ultraviolet light, while emission of red or deep-red light is relatively rare. Here, we report a new family of NHC-based deep-red iridium complexes (Ir1, Ir2, Ir3, and Ir4) featuring three-charge (0, -1, -2) ligands.
