Electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy is at present the preferred method for studying free radicals. Push–pull aminyls show exceptional stability, which is explained satisfactorily by Linnett's double-quartet theory in terms of electronic spin. Stable hydrazyls such as 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl and 2,2-diphenyl-1-cyanohydrazyl can actually be viewed as push–pull aminyls. A consequence of Linnett's theory is the increased bond order for the NN bond in hydrazyls, which is confirmed experimentally by X-ray crystallography and the high intramolecular rotation barrier. For aminyls and hydrazyls whose nitrogen center is not part of a ring, this survey lists the variety of electron donors and electron acceptors known so far. Keywords: aminyl and hydrazyl stable free radicals; nitrogen-centered persistent free radicals; push–pull stabilization; capto-dative stabilization; merostabilization; electron paramagnetic resonance spectra

This chapter is an update of a recent review on the acid–base chemistry and solvation properties of metal phenolates. After a brief introduction on the physicochemical properties of metal phenolates, the interaction between phenolate ligands and metal Lewis acids is discussed. Examples of solvent effects on the acid–base properties, structure, and chemical reactivity are presented. Furthermore, the interaction of multidentate phenolic ligands and metal cations is highlighted because of their relevance in transition-metal coordination chemistry, catalyst development, metalloenzyme mimicry, cytotoxicity, and magnetic properties. Keywords: metal phenolates; solvent effects; acid–base equilibrium

The chapter deals with the contemporary use of azophenolates and related species in the determination of metal ions. Structural variety of azophenolates is discussed. Many of the metals have more than one oxidation state (valence). Only one oxidation state was chosen for each metal (atomic number between 3 and 56) as an example. Principles of the procedures in which azophenolate reagents are used for analytical purposes are described, and important details on individual analytical procedures are listed. Keywords: contemporary; metal cations; azophenolates; determination; methods

In this chapter, we will discuss diverse aspects of the energetics of metal β-diketonates and their derivatives. By “energetics” we mean thermochemical and related studies, and so we include enthalpies of reaction and of formation as well as equilibrium measurements and stability constants. We will also discuss the gain or loss of an electron, and therefore consider ionization potentials, electron affinities, and electrochemical potentials. By metal β-diketonates and derivatives we mean, most generally, species with a substructure of the type [M(dik)n], where dik (β-diketonato) is an organic monovalent anion of structure (RC(X)C(R1)C(O)R2)− and M is an arbitrary metal. For completeness and additional insights, in this chapter we will also consider M to be virtually all elements (nonmetal, metalloid, or metal), and eventually we will include hydrogen. Keywords: acetylacetonates; diketonates; enthalpy; metal chelates; metal complexes; metalloid; nonmetal; thermochemistry

Thiacalixarenes are members of the calixarene family in which sulfur has replaced one or more of the methylene bridges between the phenolic moieties of the macrocycles. Oxidation of the thiacalixarenes leads to sulfinyl and sulfonyl homologs. The incorporation of sulfur affects the metal-binding affinities of these calixarenes over their all-carbon analogs through the abilities of the heteroatoms both to bind directly and to influence lower rim phenolic binding. Other binding motifs are possible for the oxidized thiacalixarenes leading to a vast array of complexes with metal cations. This chapter covers the literature concerning thiacalixarenes containing free OH groups at the lower rim since they were first reported. Their coordination chemistry toward alkali, alkaline earth, transition, heavy, lanthanide, and actinide metals is discussed. Examples of crystal structures of these metal complexes are given, as well as brief descriptions of their applications in fields such as catalysis, transition-metal extraction, and cation transport. Keywords: thiacalixarenes; metal phenolates; coordination chemistry; metal complexes; alkali and alkaline earth metals; transition and heavy metals; lanthanide and actinide metals

During the past 25 plus years, room-temperature stable aluminum(I) and (II) compounds have become available through standard organometallic techniques, and their reactivity has been explored in much detail. The chemistry of aluminum(I) compounds may be viewed as that of a very reactive carbene (singlet and triplet, depending on the substrate). Typical reactions involve insertions into various EE or EX bonds and adduct formation with Lewis acids. Aluminum(II) compounds are generally dialumenes (R2AlAlR2) featuring an AlAl single bond. Their chemistry is similar to that of alanes (R3Al) with respect to substitutions and Lewis acid base chemistry but with a strong redox component. In many cases, substrates insert into the AlAl bond in a formally oxidative manner. Keywords: aluminum; low oxidation state; dialumane; dialumene; reduction; insertion; Lewis acid; Lewis base; carbene; insertion

This chapter is dedicated to bifunctional derivatives associating Al with P- or N-containing Lewis bases. The synthesis and structure of these Lewis pairs/ambiphilic derivatives are described (presence or not of P/N Al interactions). Both unimolecular and bimolecular compounds are considered. Their reactivity towards small molecules (CO2, alkene, alkynes, isocyanides, amine-boranes, BX3, hydrides, and so on) including catalytic transformations are then presented. The synthesis and reactivity of transition metal complexes deriving from Al/P ambiphilic ligands are also presented. Whenever possible, the Al-compounds are compared to their lighter B congeners.

Heteracalixarenes are members of the calixarene family in which heteroatoms such as oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur, selenium, or silicon are inserted between the methylene bridges or replace them entirely. The incorporation of heteroatoms affects the metal binding affinities of these calixarenes over their all-carbon analogues, through the abilities of the heteroatoms both to bind directly and to influence lower rim phenolic binding. This chapter covers the literature concerning phenolic homooxa- and homoazacalixarene-metal complexes mainly for the last two decades (1994–2014). The syntheses of homooxa- and homoazacalixarenes containing free OH groups at the lower rim are described and their coordination chemistry towards alkali, alkaline earth, transition, heavy, lanthanide and actinide metals is discussed. Examples of crystal structures of these metal complexes are given, as well as brief descriptions of their applications in fields such as catalysis, and metal cation extraction and transport.
