The sulfur-bridged dimeric dithiolato rhenium(V) chelate [CH3(O)Re(eta 2,mu-o-SCH2C6H4S)]2 (D), derived from 2-mercaptothiophenol, was monomerized to give [CH3(O)Re(eta 2-o-SCH2C6H4S)]L (M-L) in benzene upon reaction with various neutral and anionic monodentate ligands (L) such as pyridine and its substituted derivatives, triarylphosphines, dimethyl sulfoxide, 4-picoline-N-oxide, and halide ions. The kinetic observations can readily be interpreted for all ligands by a unified mechanism in which the initial fast formation of a 1:1 (DL) and 1:2 (DL2) adduct is followed by the slow monomerization of each species so formed. The use of different ligands gave insight into different steps of the same multistep mechanism. The kinetics of ligand exchange between free L and the monomeric complexes was also studied; an associative pathway has been proposed to interpret the results. The crystal structures of two new monomeric ML complexes (with L = 4-acetylpyridine and 1,3-diethylthiourea) are reported.

Protolysis of AlMe or AlEt with 2-diisopropylphosphinopyrrole () resulted in alane/bis(phosphine) pincer ligands containing two flanking phosphines and a central Al-Me (), Al-Et () unit. Reactions of with [(COD)MI] (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene; M = Rh or Ir) in the presence of pyridine produced pincer complexes ( and ) with M supported by the PAlP tridentate ligand, and pyridine, methyl, and iodide as monodentate ligands for Al or M. The analogous reaction of with [(COD)MI] and pyridine resulted in the formation of the analogous compounds and with hydride in place of methyl.

We present the synthesis, characterization, and photophysical properties of two pyrene-modified () pincer bismuth complexes, where the pyrenyl residues are either part of the cyclometalating pincer ligand (1) or bound as monodentate ligands to the Bi ion (2). Both complexes are dually emissive at 77 K. For complex 2, pyrenyl phosphorescence persists at r.

Three two-dimensional (2D) chiral Ag(I) complexes with formulas [Ag(L)(5-nipa)] (), [Ag(L)(5-nipa)] (), and {[Ag(L)(5-hipa)]·2HO} () were prepared through the reactions of AgO with enantiopure -monodentate N-donors (L/L) and different dicarboxylic acids bearing A (acceptor)-π-- and D (donor)-π--type structural features, where / = (-)/(+)-2-(4'-pyridyl)-4,5-pinene-pyridine, 5-Hnipa = 5-nitroisophthalic acid, and 5-Hhipa = 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid. A study of their nonlinear optical responses reveals that chiral and enantiomeric pairs with the A-π--type dicarboxylic acid ligand simultaneously display second- and third-harmonic generation (SHG and THG) responses, while chiral containing the D-π--type dicarboxylic acid ligand only exhibits a very strong THG response. The THG intensity of is 451 × α-SiO, being about 27 and 24 times larger than those of and , respectively.

A novel coordination compound, [Co()(HO)], was synthesized from aqueous solutions of Co(NO) and the ligand 2-[(5-methyl-1,3,4-thia-diazol-2-yl)sulfan-yl]acetic acid (H, CHNOS). In the monoclinic crystals (space group 2/), the cobalt(II) ion is located about a centre of symmetry and is octa-hedrally coordinated by two anions in a monodentate fashion through carboxyl O atoms and by four water mol-ecules. A relatively strong hydrogen bond between one of the water mol-ecules and the non-coordinating carboxyl-ate O atom consolidates the conformation.

Herein, the photophysical, photochemical properties and photogenerated excited state dynamics of two new Ru(II) complexes, viz. [Ru(p-ttp)(bpy)(PTA)]2+ [1]2+, [Ru(p-ttp)(phen)(PTA)]2+ [2]2+ having a phosphorus-based ligand PTA [p-ttp = p-tolyl terpyridine; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl; phen = 1,10-phenthroline and PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane] are reported. Upon excitation with 470 nm LED, [1]2+ and [2]2+ neither undergo ligand release nor exhibit room temperature luminescence/1O2 generation.
