Reported herein is the first example of the Rh(NHC)-catalyzed selective bis C-H alkylation of NNN tridentate chelating compounds in reaction with alkenes. The observed excellent site-selectivity can readily be explained by the postulated rollover pathway in the C-H bond activation step. The reaction is highly facile affording bis-alkylated tridentate products in high yields over a broad range of versatile heteroarene substrates and alkene reactants including ethylene gas, thus enabling its applications to be feasible in coordination and synthetic chemistry.

Schiff bases derived from aminoguanidine are extensively investigated for their structural versatility. The tridentate 2-formylpyridine guanylhydrazones act as analogues of 2-formyl or 2-acetylpyridine thiosemicarbazones, where the thioamide unit is replaced by the guanidyl group. Six derivatives of 2-formylpyridine guanylhydrazone were synthesized and their proton dissociation and complex formation processes with Cu(II), Fe(II) and Fe(III) ions were studied using pH-potentiometry, UV-visible, NMR and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopic methods.

The current study aimed to synthesize seven new metal coordination complexes (Q1-Q7) with potential biomedical applications. Novel mononuclear, polynuclear and mixed-ligand coordination compounds of the elements, cadmium(ii) and silver(i) derived from a pyridine containing ligand (2,4,6-tris-(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine ()) have been synthesized successfully with the general formulae [Cd()Cl]·HO and [Ag () (L)(ClO)](ClO) ( = 1,2,3, = 1,2,3, L = PPh or phen, = 1,2). The structural features were fully characterized using various spectroscopic techniques, such as infrared, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, 1D and 2D-NMR (H, C, P, H-H COSY and H-C HSQCAD), CHN analysis, molar conductance (), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and powder X-ray diffraction analysis.

Four air-stable one-dimensional copper(II) coordination polymers (-) with azide linkers were synthesized using tridentate NNS and NNN ligands. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the molecular structures of , , and . In the presence of TEMPO, all four coordination polymers demonstrated effective catalytic activity for the selective aerobic oxidation of veratryl alcohol, a biomass model compound, under base-free conditions.

Due to the unique photosensitivity of silver compounds, they exhibit good photocatalytic activity as photocatalysts in the degradation of water pollutants. However, silver compounds have poor cycling stability and are prone to decomposition and reaction under light to form metallic silver, which greatly limits their practical application. Herein, a (2-(2-(diphenylphosphaneyl)ethyl)-9-methyl-1.
