Bifunctional Photocatalysts: Exploiting Proximity for Enhanced Reaction Performance
This review covers the application of the bifunctional approach to photocatalysis as a means to attain (enhanced) enantioselectivity, and, more in general, as a strategy to enhance the catalytic performance through an effective use of short‐lived reaction intermediates.

Unlocking Heterobimetallic Architectures in a Symmetric PNNP Ligand Environment
A symmetric PNNP ligand enables the modular assembly of heterobimetallic ZnRu and CoRu complexes from a mononuclear Ru(II) precursor. Ligand deprotonation triggers dearomatization and contraction of the metal–metal distance. Combined DFT and QTAIM analyses reveal metallophilic interaction in CoRu but not in ZnRu, highlighting controllable geometric and

Recent Developments in the Field of Air‐Stable Nickel(0) Precatalysts for Cross‐Coupling Reactions
The development of bench‐stable Ni(0) sources aims to replace air‐sensitive [Ni(COD)2] (cod = cycloocta‐1,5‐diene) with easy‐to‐handle alternatives. Through a targeted ligand design, using electron‐deficient dienes, carbenes, and fluorophosphines, researchers have achieved air‐ and moisture‐tolerant complexes that show high catalytic activity in cross ...

Rigid Ligand Environments at Beryllium, From Spectroscopic Probes to Small Molecule Activation
Due to the high rigidity and definition of beryllium scorpionate complexes, they can be used to study metal‐pseudohalide and ‐carbon bonds in detail. Furthermore, these compounds can be used to activate small molecules and exhibit unprecedented transmetalation reactions. In beryllium scorpionate complexes, three of the four available coordination sites
