The design, syntheses and characteristics of metal carbonyl complexes with aromatic dithiolate linkers reported as bioinspired hydrogenase catalytic site models are described and reviewed. Among these the complexes capable of hydrogen generation have been discussed in detail. Comparisons have been made with carbonyl complexes having alkyl dithiolates as linkers between metal centers.

Enantioselective Synthesis of α-Hydroxy Allyl Ketones via BINAP-CuH-Catalyzed Hydroacylation.

Catalytic hydrocupration of unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds to generate organometallic nucleophiles has recently become an attractive alternative to conventional stoichiometric reagents in the stereoselective synthesis. Herein, we have developed an efficient and economical method to synthesize enantiopure α-hydroxy allyl ketones via a copper hydride (CuH)-catalyzed hydroacylation of alkoxyallenes, a significant advancement given the scarcity of reports on such scaffolds in the literature. DFT calculations reveal that this reaction proceeds through the nucleophilic attack of a kinetically favourable Z-selective allyl-copper intermediate on acid anhydrides via a six-membered chair-like transition state, stabilized by strongly attractive non-covalent interactions that ultimately leads to high level of enantioselectivities using the simple BINAP ligand.

Electromagnetic wave absorption materials that can be utilized for freewill adhering or peeling from the target substrate remain a challenge to be solved. Compared to powder-based slurry and coatings, microwave absorption films possess clear advantages for their good flexibility and machinability. However, the matching thickness and effective bandwidth of 2D microwave absorption films cannot satisfy the current application requirements.

We report a computational study of the gas-phase and water-mediated mechanisms for the oxidation of carbonyl sulfide (OCS) by the hydroxyl radical. To achieve reliable results, we employ a dual-level strategy within interpolated single-point energies (VTST-ISPE) at the CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ//M06-2X/aug-cc-pVTZ level of theory. In the gas-phase mechanism, we have determined the rate constants by kinetic Monte Carlo simulation in the interval of temperatures of 250-550 K.

Due to its commercial availability and well-defined structure, the interaction between bovine protein β-lactoglobulin (βLG) and a wide variety of non-native ligands - including transition metal complexes - has been explored, but its application as an artificial metalloenzyme scaffold is limited. This protein is hypothesized to transport fatty acids and other nutrients during juvenile development, and it binds hydrophobic ligands inside a binding pocket constructed upon an 8-stranded β-barrel, called the 'calyx'. Herein, we compare the binding behavior of two rhenium(anthracene-bispyridine) ('Anth-py') tricarbonyl complexes, one with a 12‑carbon chain appended to the ligand scaffold ('Anth-py') to βLG.
