The emergence of the PCP pincer ligand as a platform to enhance or allow challenging
bond activations and catalysis is an important development in coordination chemistry. Within …

Conventional analytic techniques that measure ensemble averages and static disorder
provide essential knowledge of the reaction mechanisms of organic and organometallic …

Following a related review dating back to 2003, the present review discusses in detail the
various synthetic, structural and reactivity aspects of metal species containing one or more …

Metal–ligand cooperation has emerged as a powerful concept in bond activation chemistry
and catalysis. Here, both the metal and the ligand are directly involved in the bond breaking …

In an effort to investigate small molecule activation by heavier transition metal (TM) based κ2-
N, S-chelated species, we have synthesised a series of bis-κ2-1, 3-N, S-chelated complexes …

Nickelacyclobutanes are mostly invoked as reactive intermediates in the reaction of nickel
carbenes and olefins to yield cyclopropanes. Nevertheless, early work suggested that other …

Ln (II)(Ln= Yb, Sm) and Ca (II)[NCsp3N] pincer type diarylmethanido complexes [2, 2′-(4-
MeC6H3NMe2) 2CH] 2M (M= Yb (2), Sm (3), Ca (4)) coordinated by a tridentate …

A rigidified PCalkylP ligand allowed for the synthesis and characterization of cationic and
radical PCCarbeneP nickel complexes in which the carbene anchor of the pincer framework …

We report the first example of a cobalt PCcarbeneP pincer complex (1) featuring a central
alkylidene carbon donor accessed through the dehydration of an alcoholic POP proligand …

Despite their promising metal–ligand cooperative reactivity, PCcarbeneP pincer ligands are
rarely reported for first‐row transition‐metal centres. Using a dehydration methodology, we …
