Unsupported donor-acceptor complexes of noble gases (Ng) with group 13 elements have been theoretically studied using density functional theory. Calculations reveal that heavier noble gases form thermodynamically stable compounds. The present study reveals that no rigid framework is necessary to stabilize the donor-acceptor complexes. Rather, prepyramidalization at the Lewis acid center may be an interesting alternative to stabilize these complexes. Detailed bonding analyses reveal the formation of two-center-two-electron dative bonding, where Ng atoms act as a donor.

The photophysical properties of six new luminescent tetrahedral Zn(II) complexes are presented that survey two electronic donor moieties (phenolate and carbazolate) and three electronic acceptors (pyridine, pyrimidine, and pyrazine). A unique ligand based on an -terphenyl motif forms an eight-membered chelate, which enhances through-space charge-transfer (CT) interactions by limiting through-bond conjugation between the donor and acceptor. A single isomeric product was obtained in yields up to 90%.

This study proposes a green and efficient atom- and step-economical method for converting hazardous CS to dithiocarbamate derivatives under visible light irradiation and catalyst-free conditions. By the construction of novel C-S and C-N bonds, a series of β-dicarbonyl compounds and amines are incorporated into the products. Under light, CS and amine first form bis(dialkylaminethiocarbonyl)disulfides, which then react with KCO-activated β-dicarbonyl compounds to form electron donor-acceptor (EDA) complexes and subsequently generate the target products.

With the rapid advancement of information technology, the need to achieve ultra-high-density data storage has become a pressing necessity. This study synthesized three hyperbranched polyimides (HBPI-TAPP, HBPI-(Zn)TAPP, and HBPI-(Cu)TAPP) by polymerizing 5,10,15,20-tetrakis(4-aminophenyl)porphyrin (TAPP), which features a cavity for metal ion coordination, with 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene)diphthalic anhydride (6FDA), to systematically investigate the effect of metal ion species on storage performance. According to the results, memory devices based on HBPI-(Zn)TAPP exhibit volatile SRAM (static random-access memory) characteristics, whereas devices employing HBPI-TAPP and HBPI-(Cu)TAPP demonstrate non-volatile WORM (write-once, read-many) characteristics.

Herein, we describe a hexavalent tellurium-based chalcogen bonding catalysis platform capable of addressing reactivity and selectivity issues. This research demonstrates that hexavalent tellurium salts can serve as a class of highly active chalcogen bonding catalysts for the first time. The tellurium centers in these hexavalent catalysts have only one exposed interaction site, thus providing a favorable condition for the controlling of reaction selectivity.

Over the last five decades, diimine rhenium(I) tricarbonyl complexes have been extensively investigated due to their remarkable and widely tuned photophysical properties. These systems are regarded as attractive targets for design functional luminescent materials and performing fundamental studies of photoinduced processes in transition metal complexes. This review summarizes the latest developments concerning Re(I) tricarbonyl complexes bearing donor-acceptor (D-A) and donor-π-acceptor (D-π-A) ligands.
