Substitution of the halide ligands in (Bu4N)2[Mo3S7X6] (X = Cl, Br) by diimine ligands, such as 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine (dmbpy), 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), affords the neutral heteroleptic clusters Mo3S7Cl4(dmbpy) (), Mo3S7Br4(dmbpy) (), Mo3S7Br4(bpy) (), and Mo3S7Br4(phen) (). Further substitution of the halide ligands in Mo3S7Br4(diimine) clusters by dmit (1,3...

[1]Zirconametalloarenophanes [Cr(η(5)-C(5)H(4))ZrCp'(2)(η(7)-C(7)H(6))] and [Mn(η(5)-C(5)H(4))ZrCp'(2)(η(6)-C(6)H(5))] (Cp' = C(5)H(4)(t)Bu) have been isolated for the first time. These species represent potential precursors en route to metal-enriched metallopolymers by ROP. The electronic structure was assessed by means of UV-visible spectroscopy and TD-DFT calculations.

The heteroleptic six-component double slider-on-deck system DS3 exhibits tight coupling of motional speed two distinct nano-circular sliders (k298 = 77 and 41 kHz) despite a 2.2 nm sepa­ration. In comparison, the single in DS1 DS2 move at vastly diffe­rent 1.1 vs. 350 kHz). Synchro­nization motions remains even when one slows movement faster slider using small molecular brake pads. contrast to ...

This work provides the synthesis, structural characterization, electrochemical and photophysical features, as well as the application in light-emitting electrochemical cells (LECs) of a novel heteroleptic copper(i) complex - [Cu(impy)(POP)][PF6], where impy is 3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-(pyridine-2-yl)imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine and POP is bis{2-(diphenylphosphanyl)phenyl}ether. This compound shows blue ...

Abstract Using previously established salt‐metathesis procedures at low temperature, heterobimetallic ate complexes Li 6 Eu II ( n ‐Bu) 8 (thf) and 3 Y III i 4 could be synthesized their solid‐state structures analyzed by X‐ray diffraction. Recently described complex Y( was probed as a precursor in protonolyses with various amines, revealing distinct reaction pathways. Identified products compr...

Heteroleptic iron(III) complexes of formula [Fe(qsal-Cl)(thsa)] ̈nMeCN have been synthesized; [Fe(qsal-Cl)(thsa)] ̈MeCN, 1 and [Fe(qsal-Cl)(thsa)], 2. The latter can be obtained by slow evaporation of solutions of compound 1 under ambient conditions, a rare occurrence in nonporous compounds. 1 interestingly shows a unique magnetic profile over the de-solvation temperature range, 300-350 K, in the...

The exchange between different equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium platinum coordination modes can be orthogonally controlled thermodynamically with a proton input and kinetically using light.

Bodipy dyes with integral phenanthroline and terpyridine units heteroleptically assemble in the presence of zinc(II) ions to form energy transfer cassettes. These discrete complexes exhibit an approach to modularly designed efficient energy transfer and light harvesting systems through metal ion coordination.
