TL;DR: In this article, the X-ray structure of pentabenzyltantalum reveals a square-pyramidal geometry and was found to be an efficient starting material for the preparation of amine-phenolate complexes via toluene elimination reactions.

TL;DR: Computational and experimental structures indicate that protein sites adopt intrinsic coordination geometries rather than those dictated by protein structure and environment.

TL;DR: In this article, the coordination chemistry of tetradentate Salophan ligands with titanium and zirconium alkoxides is described for the first time, and three new SALophan precursors featuring different phenolate substituents (ortho-Me, ortho,para-di-Cl, Ortho,Para-Di-tBu) were synthesized in addition to the known prototypical salophan precursor, by a sequence of condensation and reduction.

TL;DR: The iron(III) hexazene complex (RO)2Fe(μ-κ(2):κ( 2)-AdN6Ad)Fe(OR)2 (3) was synthesized via reductive coupling of 1-azidoadamantane at the iron(II) bis(alkoxide) complex Fe( OR)2(THF) 2 (2).

TL;DR: An amine mono(phenolate) ligand bearing two side-arm donors led to octahedral trialkoxo and trialkyl group IV metal complexes, in which one of the donors was unbound, and to exceptionally stable cationic complexes in which the two side ofarm donors were tightly bound.
