A heterobimetallic YLi3tris(binaphthoxide) catalyst (YLB) promoted a 1,4-addition of O-methylhydroxylamine in high enantiomeric excess (up to 97% ee). Catalyst loading was reduced to as little as 0.5 mol %, still affording the 1,4-adduct in 96% yield and 96% ee. A high concentration of substrates and the scalability of the present system is also practically useful. The results suggested that the heterobimetallic catalysis was not deactivated even in the presence of excess amine under highly concentrated conditions. A Y and Li bimetallic cooperative function was essential for a high catalyst turnover number.

The phosphaguanidinate rare-earth-metal bis(aminobenzyl) complexes [(PhP)C(NCHPr-2,6)]Ln(CHCH NMe-) (Ln = Y(1-Y) and Lu(1-Lu)) were synthesized by the protonolysis of (PhP)[C(NHR)(NR)] (R = 2,6-(Pr)CH) with Ln(CHCHNMe-) (Ln = Y and Lu). Interestingly, the ring-opening rearrangement product [-MeNCHCHC(NCHPr-2,6)]Lu(CHCHNMe-)[O(CH)PPh] (2) was obtained when the acid-base reaction was carried out in THF solution at 60 °C for 36 h. Additionally, the trinuclear homometallic yttrium multimethyl/methylidene complex {[(PhP)C(NCHPr-2,6)]Y(μ-Me)}(μ-Me)(μ-CH) (3) was synthesized by the treatment of 1-Y with AlMe (2 equiv.

Biological CO/CO interconversion catalyzed at the Ni/Fe heterobimetallic active site of anaerobic carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs) offers important insights for the design of efficient and selective synthetic catalysts for CO capture and utilization (CCU). Notably, this organometallic C interconversion process is mediated at a three-coordinate nickel site. Extensive research has been conducted to elucidate the redox and structural changes involved in substrate binding and conversion.

Bimetallic complexes have demonstrated a great ability to enhance the activity of monometallic systems for bond activation and catalysis. In this work, we explore the opposite approach: using a second metal to passivate the activity of another by reversible bimetallic inhibition. To do so we have synthesized a family of nine electrophilic gold complexes of formula Au(PR)(NTf) ([NTf] = [N(SOCF)]) that can act as inhibitors in the semihydrogenation of terminal and internal alkynes catalyzed by the iconic iridium Vaska complex IrCl(CO)(PPh).

C-H bond functionalisation has developed into a powerful synthetic methodology that is applicable to a wide array of substrates, including organometallic compounds. In this study, racemic, planar-chiral 1,2-dihydroferroceno[]isoquinoline and analogous helical compounds with one or two additional -fused benzene rings were synthesised by palladium-catalysed C-H bond activation/cyclisation of -[(bromoaryl)methyl]--(methylsulfonyl)aminoferrocenes. These starting materials are readily accessible from FcNHSOMe (Fc = ferrocenyl) and appropriate vicinal bromo-(bromomethyl)arenes.

The potassium aluminyl K[Al(NON)] ([NON]=[O(SiMeNDipp)], Dipp=2,6-iPrCH) reacts with group 14 chloroamidinates E(Am)Cl (E=Ge, Sn, Pb. [Am]=[tBuC(NDipp)]) to form (NON)Al-E(Am) Lewis pairs with unsupported Al-E bonds, including the first structurally authenticated Al-Pb bond. Analysis using spectroscopic (NMR, UV-vis and Mössbauer for E=Sn), X-ray diffraction and computational (DFT, QTAIM, TD-DFT) methods conclude an Al-E σ-bond derived from a Lewis basic Al and a Lewis acidic tetrylene, with back-donation from the E s-orbital lone pair donor NBO to acceptor NBOs on Al that are derived from s/p-orbitals.
