Published: June 2016

The lithium bis(imino)stannylenoid (NIPr)2 Sn(Li)Cl (1; NIPr=bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-imino) was prepared by the reaction of LiNIPr with 0.5 equiv of SnCl2 ⋅diox (diox=1,4-dioxane) and the ambiphilic character of the compound was demonstrated by investigations into its reactivity. Treatment of 1 with I2 or MeI yielded the oxidative addition products (NIPr)2 SnI2 and (NIPr)2 Sn(Me)I, respectively. In contrast, the reaction of 1 with one equivalent of Me3 SiCl resulted in the formation of Me3 SiNIPr and the chlorostannylene dimer [NIPrSnCl]2 . Moreover, the substitution reaction of compound 1 with MeLi led to the formation of the methyl-substituted stannate (NIPr)2 Sn(Li)Me.

Key Laboratory of Green Chemistry & Technology, Ministry of Education, College of Chemistry, Sichuan University, 610064, Chengdu, People's Republic of China.

Heavier group 14 carbene analogues, exhibiting transition-metal-like behavior, display remarkable capability for small molecule activation and coordination chemistry. However, their application in redox catalysis remains elusive. In this paper, we report the synthesis and isolation of a stannylene with carbodiphosphorane ligand.

Metal-nitrogen double bonds have been commonly reported for conventional metal complexes, but the coexistence of both transition metal-nitrogen and lanthanide-nitrogen double bonds bridged by nitrogen within one compound has never been reported. Herein, by encapsulating a ternary transition metal-lanthanide heteronuclear dimetallic nitride into a C fullerene cage, transition metal-nitrogen and lanthanide-nitrogen double bonds are costabilized simultaneously within the as-formed clusterfullerene TiCeN@C(12)-C, which is a representative heteronuclear dimetallic nitride clusterfullerene. Its molecular structure was unambiguously determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, revealing a slightly bent μ-bridged nitride cluster with short Ti-N (1.

Background: Radiopharmaceutical therapy (RPT) uses radionuclides that decay via one of three therapeutically relevant decay modes (alpha, beta, and internal conversion (IC) / Auger electron (AE) emission) to deliver short range, highly damaging radiation inside of diseased cells, maintaining localized dose distribution and sparing healthy cells. Antimony-119 (Sb, t = 38.19 h, EC = 100%) is one such IC/AE emitting radionuclide, previously limited to in silico computational investigation due to barriers in production, chemical separation, and chelation.

Article Synopsis
  • Organic-inorganic metal halide perovskite solar cells have quickly improved in efficiency but struggle with stability under heat and light due to weak hydrogen bonds.
  • Researchers are exploring all-inorganic alternatives using cesium (Cs) to enhance stability, but these cells often transition to less effective yellow phases at room temperature, reducing their performance.
  • The article discusses strategies for stabilizing the effective black phase of cesium lead iodide (CsPbI) and highlights ongoing challenges in developing the tin-based equivalent (CsSnI) for sustainable and efficient solar cell applications.
