Reactions of Re(V), tetradentate Schiff base complexes with tertiary phosphines have previously yielded both rearranged Re(V) and reduced Re(III) complexes. To further understand this chemistry, the rigid diiminediphenol (N(2)O(2)) Schiff base ligand sal(2)phen (N,N'-o-phenylenebis(salicylaldimine)) was reacted with (n-Bu(4)N)[ReOCl(4)] to yield trans-[ReOCl(sal(2)phen)] (1). On reaction with triphenylphosphine (PPh(3)), a rearranged Re(V) product cis-[ReO(PPh(3))(sal(2)phen*)]PF(6) (2), in which one of the imines was reduced to an amine during the reaction, and the reduced Re(III) products trans-[ReCl(PPh(3))(sal(2)phen)] (4) and trans-[Re(PPh(3))(2)(sal(2)phen)](+) (5) were isolated. Reaction of sal(2)phen with [ReCl(3)(PPh(3))(2)(CH(3)CN)] resulted in the isolation of [ReCl(2)(PPh(3))(2)(salphen)] (3). The compounds were characterized using standard spectroscopic methods, elemental analyses and single crystal X-ray crystallography.

For the first time, the capture of the planar antiaromatic parent benzene dianion in between two trivalent rare earth (RE) metal cations (RE), each stabilized by two guanidinate ligands, is reported. The synthesized inverse-sandwich complexes [{(MeSi)NC(NPr)}RE](μ-η : η-CH), (RE=Y (1), Dy (2), and Er (3)) were crystallized from aprotic solvents and feature a remarkably planar parent benzene dianion, previously not encountered for any metal ion prone to low or absent covalency. The -2 charge localization at the benzene ligand was deduced from the results obtained by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, spectroscopy, magnetometry, and Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations.

The complexation behavior of tri--amyl phosphate (TiAP) and tri--butyl phosphate (TBP) ligands with U(VI), Th(IV), and Nd(III) was investigated using density functional theory (DFT). Quantum chemical calculations yielded identical coordination geometries for TBP and TiAP complexes. Calculated complexation energies indicated a preferential extraction of U(VI) followed by Th(IV) over Nd(III), aligning with solvent extraction experiments conducted in the cross-current mode.

Anionic ancillary ligands play a critical role in the construction of rare earth (RE) metal complexes due to the large influence on the stability of the molecule and engendering emergent electronic properties that are of interest in a plethora of applications. Supporting ligands comprising oxygen donor atoms are highly pursued in RE chemistry owing to the high oxophilicity innate to these ions. The scarcely employed bis(acyl)phosphide (BAP) ligands feature oxygen coordination sites and contain a phosphide backbone rendering it attractive for RE-coordination chemistry.

A family of rare-earth complexes [RE(III) = Y, La, Gd, Tb, Dy, and Er] with doubly reduced dibenzo[,]cyclooctatetraene (DBCOT) has been synthesized and structurally characterized. X-ray diffraction analysis confirms that all products of the [RE(DBCOT)(THF)][RE(DBCOT)] composition consist of the anionic sandwich [RE(DBCOT)] and the cationic counterpart [RE(DBCOT)(THF)]. Within the sandwich, two elongated π decks are slightly bent toward the metal center (avg.

Metallaaromatics are an important class of aromatic compounds, showing diverse and interesting aromatic properties. Radical rhenabenzofurans 1-3 with a fused metallacyclopropene unit are reported, containing d Re centers. Computational studies show that the three-membered rhenacyclopropene ring is σ-aromatic, while the rhenafuran ring is nonaromatic.
