Article Abstract
The synthesis and structural characterisation of the difluorido organo gold(iii) complexes [AuClF2(SIMes)] and [AuF2(OTeF5)(SIMes)] are presented. The substitution of a fluorido ligand in [AuF3(SIMes)] by an OTeF5 group increases the Lewis acidity of the Au moiety. A scale for carbene affinities is presented, which correlates calculated and experimental values for the Lewis acidity of the metal centre in akin compounds.

Geometrical Isotope Effects on Chemical Bonding in Hydrogen Bonded Systems: Combining Nuclear-Electronic Orbital DFT and Energy Decomposition Analysis.

We investigated primary and secondary geometric isotope effects (H, D, T) on charge-inverted hydrogen bonds (CIHB) and dihydrogen bonds (DHB) using nuclear-electronic orbital density functional theory (NEO-DFT). The dianionic but electrophilic boron cluster [BH] served as a bonding partner, exhibiting a negatively polarized hydrogen atom in the BH bond. CIHB systems included interactions with Lewis acids (AlH, BH, GaH) and carbenes (CF, CCl, CBr), while DHBs were analyzed with NH, HF, HCl, and HBr.

Lithium metal batteries (LMBs) have emerged as the most promising candidate for next-generation high-energy-density energy storage systems. However, their practical implementation is hindered by the inability of conventional carbonate electrolytes to simultaneously stabilize the lithium metal anode and LiNiCoMnO (NCM811) cathode interfaces, particularly under extreme operating conditions. Herein, we present a transformative molecular design using 3,5-difluorophenylboronic acid neopentyl glycol ester (DNE), which uniquely integrates dual interfacial stabilization mechanisms in a single molecule.

We report Lewis acid-catalyzed direct conversion of carboxylic acids into primary amides and nitriles using bis(trimethylsilyl)amine as an ammonia surrogate. With 1.1 equiv of bis(trimethylsilyl)amine, ytterbium(III) and hafnium(IV) triflates efficiently catalyzed the reaction, affording various primary amides in high yields with a broad substrate scope.

Accumulation of waste plastics on the earth's surface is a global challenge. There is a possibility of turning this challenge into an opportunity by plastic upcycling. In this work, the potential of bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) as a heterogeneous catalyst for the glycolysis of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is reported.
