Transition Metal‐Free Heteroarene Insertion Into C─C Bonds of Benzocyclobutenones
A transition metal‐free insertion of five‐membered heteroarenes into the C─C bonds of benzocyclobutenones has been achieved under mild and operationally simple conditions. This method provides an efficient and modular approach to access fused partially saturated hetero‐polycyclic scaffolds that exist in many bioactive molecules.

Masked divalent yttrium and gadolinium dinitrogen complexes mediate the fragmentation of white phosphorus, converting P4 into discrete dimetallic complexes of [P4]2– and [P2]2– ligands, and an unprecedented monatomic P2– radical ligand. Structural, spectroscopic, magnetic, and DFT studies reveal insight into the bonding between these unusual Pn units ...

1,7‐Digallatetracarborane: Between Nucleophilic closo‐Cluster and “Inverse Sandwich” Digallylene
A dianionic π‐ligand is used to make a Janus‐type twofold complex with low‐valent gallium Ga(+I). The resulting compound can be seen as and reveals the reactivity of both: a Wade‐type closo‐carborane cluster with nucleophilic Ga‐sites, as well as π‐ligand stabilized Ga(I) atoms in an inverse sandwich compound.

Coordination‐Driven Direct C─H Metalation of N‐Heterocycles With a Superbasic Co(II) Amide Co(TMP)2
By enabling regioselectivities that are inaccessible with conventional bases, this study introduces a Co(II) amide platform for the deprotonative C─H metalation of sensitive N‐heterocycles. Subsequent interception of the resulting Co(II) intermediates with external oxidants affords a family of sterically congested, TMP‐substituted heterocycles via C─N ...

Mechanistic studies of the copper-dependent quercetin 2,3-dioxygenase from A. japonicus : X-ray crystallography, spectroscopy and theoretical calculations [PDF]
Dioxygenases are enzymes that catalyse reactions in which both atoms of molecular oxygen (O2) are incorporated into organic substrates. These enzymes play a key role in the degradation of numerous aromatic and heteroaromatic molecules.

Dual Activation of H2 and CO2 by a Pincer‐Type Ni–Zn Heterobimetallic Complex
A bimetallic Ni−Zn complex performs sequential activations of H2 (1 equiv) and CO2 (2 equiv). This bimetallic cooperativity is attributed to the weak Lewis acidic nature of Zn(II), which promotes fluxional ligand binding. Namely, an X‐type ligand at Ni, where X is hydride or formate, toggles between two different binding modes: bridging Zn(μ‐X)Ni and ...
