Heteroleptic carbones are predicted to be stable and often bent
—
in ChemistryWhat the study found The calculations suggest that the heteroleptic carbones L1-C-L2 are generally stable enough to be experimentally observed. Most of these complexes are predicted to have bent equilibrium structures, with two exceptions that are linear. Why the authors say this matters The authors conclude that comparing heteroleptic carbones with homoleptic species helps show…

Cyclometalated platinum products depend on the halogen in the ligand
—
in ChemistryStudy of cyclometalated platinum compounds formed via competing C-H and C-X bond activation pathways, with mechanistic insights from computational and spectroscopic analysis.

New fused NiII porphyrin dimers were synthesized
—
in ChemistrySynthesis of fused-azepine- and 1H-azocine-bridged NiII porphyrin dimers via Pictet-Spengler cyclization and oxidative transformations, yielding NIR-absorbing and fluorescent complexes.
