The last two decades have seen a veritable explosion in the use of gold (I) complexes
bearing N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) and phosphine (PR3) ligands. Both ligand families …

Organophosphorus ligands are an invaluable family of compounds that continue to underpin
important roles in disciplines such as coordination chemistry and catalysis. Their success …

Secondary ligand–metal interactions are decisive in many catalytic transformations. While
arene–gold interactions have repeatedly been reported as critical structural feature in many …

Our long-standing interest in atypical bonding situations has recently led us to target
complexes in which a metallobasic gold (I) center is hydrogen-bonded to a nearby OH …

Abstract Au⋅⋅⋅ H− X (X= N or C) hydrogen bonding is gaining increasing interest, both in
the study of its intrinsic nature and in their operability in different fields. While the role of …

The synthesis of two new 1, 2, 3-triazole appended monophosphines [P (Ph){(o-C6H4)(1, 2,
3-N3C (Ph) CH} 2](1) and [P (Ph){o-C6H4 (CCH)(1, 2, 3-N3-Ph)} 2](2) and their RuII …

Recent success in the synthesis of π‐conjugated heavier pnictogen (As, Sb, and Bi)
compounds and their transition metal complexes has led to the current surge in interest that …

Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) has gained a remarkable amount of interest in the past
20 years, but the majority of the studies are based on organic structures. Herein, three …

We present a rare intramolecular Au··· H–C (sp 3) hydrogen-bonding interaction and
luminescent properties of a gold (I) carbene complex. The Au (I) complex [(L) Au (I) Cl](1) …

Ubiquitous intramolecular aurophilic interactions in gold clusters have usually been
assigned as the main determinants of their molecular geometry and various properties. By …
