Three stable oxidovanadium(IV) [VOL] complexes (1-3) were synthesized through the incorporation of unsymmetrical salen ligands (HL). All the ligands are synthesized, and their vanadium compounds were thoroughly characterized by CHNS analysis, various spectroscopy methods (IR, UV-Vis, NMR spectroscopy), and HR-ESI-MS. The structures of 1-3 were validated through the single-crystal X-ray analysis.

The development of high activity catalysts is crucial for improving industrial efficiency and mitigating environmental pollution. Polyisocyanides, with their pendant groups capable of forming ordered adjacent structures, offer a promising framework for designing cooperative catalysts that mimic the functionality of bimetallic centers. This unique structural arrangement is anticipated to significantly enhance catalytic activity in cooperative reactions.

The first chiral tetracarbene indium(III) complexes have been synthesized by employing a rigid dianionic macrocyclic tetra-NHC ligand. The macrocyclic indium tetra-NHC bromide and ethoxide complexes are structurally similar to analagous salen complexes. The indium ethoxide complex effectively promotes living ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactone at room temperature.

We now report a macrocyclic rare-earth complex whose frameworks have been regulated between a trimer and a tetramer by an external capping ligand. Coordination sphere engineering of the rare earth metals with flexible and variable coordination numbers (CN > 6) offers a unique way to control the self-assembled structures.

The rational design of organic ligands with the aim to control their binding abilities towards different metal ions can be considered as one of the key concepts in supramolecular coordination chemistry. Regarding the macrocyclic compounds of thiacalix[4]arene family, this can be achieved the targeted modulation of macrocyclic platform rigidity as well as the proper choice of appended binding sites. Four macrocyclic salen-type ligands based on lower rim disubstituted thiacalix[4]arene derivatives, adopted in a cone conformation, bearing highly coordinating iminophenolic or catecholic groups and two -CH- moieties as spacers but presenting different abilities to form H-bonds, were chosen to elucidate the interplay between the conformational flexibility of the macrocyclic ligands, propensity to participate in the intermolecular H-bonding and the extraction ability of 3d-metal cations.
