Hexafluoroacetylacetonates that contain lead and divalent first-row transition metals, PbM(hfac)(4) (M = Ni (1), Co (2), Mn (3), Fe (4), and Zn (5)), have been synthesized. Their heterometallic structures are held together by strong Lewis acid-base interactions between metal atoms and diketonate ligands acting in chelating-bridging fashion. Compounds 1-5 are highly volatile and decompose below 350 °C. Fluorinated heterometallic β-diketonates have been used for the first time as volatile single-source precursors for the preparation of mixed-metal fluorides. Complex fluorides of composition Pb(2)MF(6) have been obtained by decomposition of 1-5 in a two-zone furnace under low-pressure nitrogen flow. Lead-transition metal fluorides conform to orthorhombically distorted Aurivillius-type structure with layers of corner-sharing [MF(6)] octahedra separated by α-PbO-type (Pb(2)F(2)) blocks. Pb(2)NiF(6) and Pb(2)CoF(6) were found to exhibit magnetic ordering below 80 and 43 K, respectively. The ordering is antiferromagnetic, with a weak, uncompensated moment due to the canting of spins. The Pb(2)MF(6) fluorides represent a new class of prospective magnetoelectric materials combining transition metals and lone-pair main-group cations.

This review summarizes the data on the synthesis of coordination compounds containing two or more different metal ions based on fluorinated β-diketonates. Heterometallic systems are of high interest in terms of their potential use in catalysis, medicine and diagnostics, as well as in the development of effective sensor devices and functional materials. Having a rich history in coordination chemistry, fluorinated β-diketones are well-known ligands generating a wide variety of heterometallic complexes.

Seven isostructural heterometallic luminescent (Ir,Cd) coordination polymers were prepared upon the combination of tris-chelate cationic Ir(III) complexes behaving as metalloligands with Cd(II) salts. Three octahedral Ir(III) complexes have been considered in the present report. They consist of a bipyridine unit functionalised with 3-pyridyl moieties as peripheral coordinating sites and two 2-phenylpyridyl cyclometalating derivatives.

A palladium pre-catalyst, [Pd(PCy)] is reported for the efficient and selective C-F alumination of fluorobenzenes with the aluminium(i) reagent [{(ArNCMe)CH}Al] (, Ar = 2,6-di-iso-propylphenyl). The catalytic protocol results in the transformation of sp C-F bonds to sp C-Al bonds and provides a route to reactive organoaluminium complexes () from fluorocarbons. The catalyst is highly active.

New heterometallic aluminium-alkali metal compounds have been prepared using Schiff bases with electron withdrawing substituents as ligands. The synthesis of these new species was achieved via the reaction of AlMe₃ with the freshly prepared alkali-metallated ligand. The derivatives formed were characterized by NMR in solution and by single crystal X-ray diffraction in the solid state.

3-Oxy-furoxanate is immobilized in a heterometallic energetic metal-organic framework (MOFs). Two furoxan-based MOFs ([Ag K (BDOFO)(BDFO) (H O) ] , [K (BDFO)] ) and a salt ([(BDFO )(NH NH ) (H O)] (BDOFO =4,5-bis(dinitromethyl)-3-oxy-furoxanate, BDFO =4,5-bis(dinitromethyl)-furoxanate) are synthesized and their energetic performance evaluated. This study outlines the systematic investigation of detonation performance of 3-oxy-furoxan and its derivatives.
