Palladium fluorophenyl complexes with different pincer ligands Pd(Ar)[2,6-(tBu(2)PCH(2))(2)C(6)H(3)] (13), Pd(Ar)[2,6-(tBu(2)PO)(2)C(6)H(3)] (14), Pd(Ar)[{2,5-(tBu(2)PCH(2))(2)C(5)H(2)}Fe(C(5)H(5))] (15), and Pd(Ar)[{2,5-(tBu(2)PCH(2))(2)C(5)H(2)}Ru(C(5)H(5))] (16) were synthesized by the reaction of LiAr (Ar = C(6)H(4)F-4) with the respective trifluoroacetate palladium pincer complexes 9-12. The molecular structures of 14 and 16 were determined by an X-ray crystallographic method. Complexes 13-16 and {Pd(Ar)[{2,5-(tBu(2)PCH(2))(2)C(5)H(2)}Fe(C(5)H(5))]}PF(6) (17) were studied by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. On the basis of (19)F NMR chemical shifts and (1)J((13)C-(19)F) coupling constants, as well as Pd(II)/Pd(IV) oxidation potentials, electronic characteristics of the corresponding pincer ligands were elucidated.

Herein, we report the isolation of pyridine moiety-functionalized SiNSi pincer-based bis-silylene ligand () and its reactivity toward various halide precursors (X = Br and I) of group 13 elements (M = Al, Ga, and In). This gave us straightforward access to the SiNSi pincer-coordinated group 13 cations (-). These complexes are duly characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies, multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (H, C, and Si), and high-resolution mass spectrometry techniques.

A pronounced nucleophilicity in combination with a distinct redox non-innocence is a unique feature of a coordinated ligand, which in the current case, leads to unprecedented carbon-centered reactivity patterns: A carbodiphosphorane-based (CDP) pincer-type rhodium complex allows to cleave two C-Cl-bonds of geminal dichlorides via two consecutive SN2-type oxidative additions resulting in the formation of a stabilized carbene fragment. In the presence of a suitable reductant the carbene fragment can even be converted into olefines or hydrodehalogenation products in a catalytic reaction. The developed method can also be used to convert chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) such as CH2ClF to fluoromethane and methane.

We report the proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reactivity of an octahedral Ta(V) aniline complex supported by an acridane-derived redox active NNN pincer ligand. The reversible binding of aniline to a Ta(V) dichloride induces significant coordination-induced bond weakening (CIBW) of the aniline N-H bonds. This enables a rare two-fold hydrogen atom abstraction, resulting in a terminal imido complex and a two-electron oxidation of the NNN pincer ligand, all while maintaining the metal's oxidation state.

Nickelacyclobutanes are reactive intermediates in catalytic cycles involving cyclopropanation and insertion reactions. The stoichiometric study of these intermediates has shown that their reactivity is highly influenced by the coordination environment of the nickel center. A pentacoordinated nickelacyclobutane embedded in a diphosphine pincer ligand has been shown to selectively undergo various reactions with exogenous ligands, including [2+2] cycloreversion and carbene transfer to an isocyanide.

Thioxanthone (TX) molecules and their derivatives are well-known photoactive compounds. Yet, there exist only a handful of luminescent systems combining TX with transition metals. Recently, we reported a TX-based PSP pincer ligand () that appears as a promising platform for filling this niche.
