In the title cobalt(II) compound, [Co(C(12)H(21)N(2)Si)Cl(C(6)H(16)N(2))], the ethane-1,2-diamine donor mol-ecule coordin-ates the metal atom in an N,N'-chelating mode, with Co-N distances of 2.136 (2) and 2.140 (3) Å. An anilide ligand connects to the Co(II) atom with a σ-bond, the Co-N(anilide) distance being 1.931 (2) Å. The four-coordinate Co(II) atom demonstrates a slightly distorted tetra-hedral geometry.

Dual-atom catalysts featuring synergetic dinuclear active sites, have the potential of breaking the linear scaling relationship of the well-established single-atom catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction; however, the design of dual-atom catalysts with rationalized local microenvironment for high activity and selectivity remains a great challenge. Here we design a bisalphen ladder polymer with well-defined densely populated binuclear cobalt sites on Ketjenblack substrates. The strong electron coupling effect between the fully-conjugated ladder structure and carbon substrates enhances the electron transfer between the cobalt center and oxygen intermediates, inducing the low-to-high spin transition for the 3d electron of Co(II).

A mixed-ligand-based thermo-chemically robust and undulated metal-organic framework (MOF) is developed that embraces carboxamide moiety-grafted porous channels and activation-induced generation of open-metal site (OMS). The guest-free MOF acts as an outstanding heterogeneous catalyst in Hantzsch condensation for electronically assorted substrates with low catalyst loading and short duration under greener conditions than the reported materials. Besides Lewis acidic OMS, the carboxamide group activates the substrate via two-point hydrogen bonding, highlighting the effectiveness of custom-made functionalities in this multi-component reaction.

In the study of mononuclear transition metal single molecule magnets (SMMs), extensive research has concentrated on identifying optimal coordination geometries around the central metal ion to enhance SMM properties. However, the role of non-covalent interactions in the second coordination sphere has been relatively underexplored. Here, we study the impact of non-covalent Cl⋯H interactions on the magnetic anisotropy of the central Co(II) ion in the distorted axially compressed octahedral complex CoCl(tu) (1) (tu = SC(NH)).

Although the catalytic activity is heavily reliant on the electronic structure of the catalyst, understanding the impact of electron spin regulation on electrocatalytic performance is still rarely investigated. This work presents a novel approach involving the single-atom coordination of cobalt (Co) within metalloporphyrin-based three-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (3D-COFs) to facilitate the catalytic conversion for sodium-iodine batteries. The spin state of Co is modulated by altering the oxidation state of the porphyrin-centered Co, achieving optimal catalysis for iodine reduction.

Three novel complexes of deprotonated diflunisal () with neocuproine () were synthesized and characterized elemental, spectral (UV-vis, FTIR, fluorescence, and mass spectrometry), and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Although the compounds shared a similar composition of [MCl()()], where M represents Zn(II) (1), Co(II) (2) and Cu(II) (3), only 1 and 2 were isostructural, while 3 differed in both the molecular and supramolecular structures. In all three complex molecules, the central atom is coordinated by two nitrogen atoms of in a bidentate chelate mode, and one chlorido ligand and is bonded in either a monodentate mode one oxygen atom of the carboxylate in 1 and 2 or in a bidentate chelate mode both carboxylate oxygen atoms in 3.
