Thermolysis of [CpMn(η(6)-cht)] with P4 in 1,3-diisopropylbenzene leads to the formation of the heterocubane [Cp4Mn4P4] () in high yields, as a rare example of 'naked' phosphorus containing complexes of manganese. Compound is characterized and studied by DFT calculations and reflection measurements. 1D coordination polymers [{(CpMn)4(μ3-P)4}(CuX)]n (2-Cl: X = Cl; 2-Br: X = Br) are obtained in the reaction with CuX. Furthermore, it is shown that all four P atoms in can be addressed for a coordination towards cymantrene resulting in [{(CpMn)4(μ3-P)4}{CpMn(CO)2}n] (: n = 1; : n = 2; : n = 3; : n = 4), and shows that is a tetra-topic building block in coordination chemistry.

The tetracyanoborate anion [B(CN)] (TCB) was utilized as a building block for the synthesis of polynuclear chromium carbonyl compounds upon photolytic reaction with [Cr(CO)]. Up to four κN-coordinated cyano groups of TCB can be involved in binding to chromium, giving mixtures of [B(CN){CN-Cr(CO)}] ( = 1-4; 1-4) and [{Cr(CO)(B(CN))}] (5). The reaction of [B(CN)] with -[Cr(CO)(MeCN)] led to isolation of salts of the tetraanionic heterocubane cage [{Cr(CO)(B(CN))}].

The novel oxychloridoselenites(IV) [BMIm][SeCl] (1), [BMIm][SeClO] (2), [BMIm][SeClO] (3), [BMPyr][SeClO] (4), [BMPyr][SeClO] (5), [BMIm][SeClO] (6), [BMPyr][SeClO] (7), and [BMPyr][SeClO] (8) are prepared by ionic-liquid-based synthesis. Accordingly, SeCl, SeO (1-6), and/or SeOCl (7,8) as the starting materials are reacted in [BMIm]Cl or [BMPyr]Cl as ionic liquid (BMIm: 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium, BMPyr: 1-butyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium; partially with AlCl in addition). Generally, the composition and structure of title compounds can be derived from the tetrameric, heterocubane-type (SeCl) as the initial building unit.

Ionic liquids (ILs), especially task-specific ILs, are capable of dissolving various solids at moderate temperatures without the need for special reaction vessels. Direct synthesis of binary sulfides of B, Bi, Ge, Mo, Cu, Au, Sn, In, Ti, V, Fe, Co, Ga, Ni, Al, Zn, and Sb in [P]Cl was tested at 100 °C, below the melting point of sulfur. Under these conditions, substantial sulfide formation occurred only for nickel (NiS, NiS, NiS) and copper (CuS, CuS).

Ni,Fe-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases (CODHs) catalyze the reversible reduction of CO to CO. Several anaerobic microorganisms encode multiple CODHs in their genome, of which some, despite being annotated as CODHs, lack a cysteine of the canonical binding motif for the active site Ni,Fe-cluster. Here, we report on the structure and reactivity of such a deviant enzyme, termed CooS-V .

The synthesis of a triazole appended dinucleating bisphosphine 1,4-bis(5-(diisopropylphosphaneyl)-1-phenyl-1-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)benzene (2) and its coinage metal complexes are described. The dinucleating bisphosphine 2 was obtained by the temperature-controlled lithiation of 1,4-bis(1-phenyl-1-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)benzene (1a) and 1,4-bis(1-(2-bromophenyl)-1-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)benzene (1b) followed by the reaction with PrPCl. The reactions of 2 with copper(I) halides in 1 : 2 molar ratios yielded the [Cu(μ-X)] dimeric complexes [{Cu(μ-X)}(PPrNPhC)CH] (3, X = Cl; 4, X = Br; and 5, X = I), whereas the reaction of 2 with AgBr resulted in the formation of hetero-cubane complex [{Ag(μ-Br)}{(PPrNPhC)CH}] (7).
