Abstract trans ‐[Co(TIM)(C2R)Cl]+complexes were prepared from the reaction betweentrans ‐[Co(TIM)Cl2]PF6and HC2R (R=tri(isopropyl)silyl or TIPS (1 ), ‐C6H4‐4‐tBu (2 ), ‐C6H4‐4‐NO2(3 a ), andN ‐mesityl‐1,8‐naphthalimide or NAPMes(4 a )) in the presence of Et3N. The intermediate complexes of the typetrans ‐[Co(TIM)(C2R)(NCMe)](PF6)(OTf),3 b and4 b , were obtained by treating3 a and4 a , respectively, with AgOTf in CH3CN. Furthermore, bis‐alkynyltrans ‐[Co(TIM)(C2R)2]PF6complexes,3 c and4 c , were generated following a second dehydrohalogenation reaction between3 b and4 b , respectively, and the appropriate HC2R in the presence of Et3N. These new complexes have been characterized using X‐ray diffraction (2 ,3 a ,4 a , and4 c ), IR,1H NMR, UV/Vis spectroscopy, fluorescent spectroscopy (4 c ), and cyclic voltammetry. -

Abstract Three new polynuclear clusters with the formulae [Mn10O4(OH)(OMe){(py)2C(O)2}2{(py)2C(OMe)(O)}4(MeCO2)6](ClO4)2(
1 ), Na[Mn12O2(OH)3(OMe){(py)2C(O)2}6{(py)2C(OH)(O)}2(MeCO2)2(H2O)10](ClO4)8(2 ) and [Mn12O4(OH)2{(py)2C(O)2}6{(py)2C(OMe)(O)}(MeCO2)3(NO3)3(H2O)(DMF)2](NO3)2(3 ) were prepared from the combination of di‐2‐pyridyl ketone, (py)2CO, with the aliphatic diols (1,3‐propanediol (pdH2) or 1,4‐butanediol (1,4‐bdH2)) in Mn carboxylate chemistry. The reported compounds do not include the aliphatic diols employed in this reaction scheme; however, their use is essential for the formation of1 –3 . The crystal structures of1 –3 are based on multilayer cores which, to our knowledge, are reported for the first time in Mn cluster chemistry. Direct current (dc ) magnetic susceptibility studies showed the presence of dominant antiferromagnetic exchange interactions within1 –3 . Alternating current (ac ) magnetic susceptibility studies revealed the presence of out‐of‐phase signals below 3.0 K for2 and3 indicating the slow relaxation of the magnetization vector, characteristic of single‐molecule magnets; theUeff value of2 was found to be 23 K and the preexponential factorτ0 ~7.6×10−9 s. -

Abstract The mechanism of the intermolecular hydroamination of 3‐methylbuta‐1,2‐diene (
1 ) withN ‐methylaniline (2 ) catalyzed by (IPr)AuOTf has been studied by employing a combination of kinetic analysis, deuterium labelling studies, and in situ spectral analysis of catalytically active mixtures. The results of these and additional experiments are consistent with a mechanism for hydroamination involving reversible, endergonic displacement ofN ‐methylaniline from [(IPr)Au(NHMePh)]+(4 ) by allene to form the cationic gold π‐C1,C2 ‐allene complex [(IPr)Au(η2‐H2C=C=CMe2)]+(I ), which is in rapid, endergonic equilibrium with the regioisomeric π‐C2,C3 ‐allene complex [(IPr)Au(η2‐Me2C=C=CH2)]+(I′ ). Rapid and reversible outer‐sphere addition of2 to the terminal allene carbon atom ofI′ to form gold vinyl complex (IPr)Au[C(=CH2)CMe2NMePh] (II ) is superimposed on the slower addition of2 to the terminal allene carbon atom ofI to form gold vinyl complex (IPr)Au[C(=CMe2)CH2NMePh] (III ). Selective protodeauration ofIII releasesN ‐methyl‐N ‐(3‐methylbut‐2‐en‐1‐yl)aniline (3 a ) with regeneration of4 . At high conversion, gold vinyl complexII is competitively trapped by an (IPr)Au+fragment to form the cationic bis(gold) vinyl complex {[(IPr)Au]2[C(=CH2)CMe2NMePh]}+(6 ). -

Abstract A bis(pyrazolylpyridyl) ligand, L, containing a central photochromic dithienylethene spacer predictably forms a ferrous [Fe2L3]4+helicate exhibiting spin crossover (SCO). In solution, the compound [Fe2L3](ClO4)4(
1 ) preserves the magnetic properties and is fluorescent. The structure of1 is photo‐switchable following the reversible ring closure/opening of the central dithienylethene via irradiation with UV/visible light. This photoisomerization switches on and off some emission bands of1 and provides a means of externally manipulating the magnetic properties of the assembly. -
