Cationic Sulfonium‐Based Tripodal Ligand and Its Rh(I) Complexes
We report a cationic EP3‐type tripodal ligand based on an aromatic sulfonium cation (E = S+) along with a series of its Rh(I) complexes. Structural, spectroscopic, electrochemical, and computational analyses of these complexes compared to isostructural analogs (E = Si− or P) reveal pronounced electron density depletion at Rh in the sulfonium congener ...

N─H or O─H Bond Activation With a Bicyclic Si4 Ring Compound
The bicyclic Si4 ring compound with zwitterionic character reacts with NH3, H2O, and selected alcohols to give functionalized saturated silicon rings, siliconoid clusters with unsubstituted Si atoms, or simple 1,3‐addition products. The experimentally observed reactivity could be rationalized based on results from mechanistic calculations employing ...

Deriving General Energy Predictors for Pnictogen Bonding
This study derives general energetic predictors for pure pnictogen bonds from nitrogen to bismuth based on the potential energy density at the bond critical point. The research highlights the increasing occurrence of secondary interactions for heavier elements.

A persistent germylyne radical enabling reversible σ-dimerization and diverse bond activation
The reversible σ-dimerization of radicals is a fundamental process in bond formation and cleavage, yet achieving this with an isolable heavy carbyne analogue has remained a paramount challenge.

Multi‐state Photoswitching in Thienoquinoid‐Based Fluorescent Trithiophenes
A methine‐bridged trithiophene with a thienoquinoid core undergoes photoisomerization of both C═C bonds, affording three geometrical isomers in a ratio controlled by the irradiation wavelength. Despite full π‐conjugation, the system retains fluorescence, enabling wavelength‐addressable multi‐state switching with luminescent readout.

Achievement of Transition Metal Chalcogenides/Oxides in Hydrogen Production by Seawater Electrolysis
Transition metal chalcogenides (TMCs)/oxides have shown great application potential in seawater splitting for hydrogen generation due to their adjustable electronic properties, abundant active sites, and excellent catalytic performance. ABSTRACT Under the impetus of global “dual carbon” goals, green hydrogen has become a key component of the future ...
