His pioneering achievements laid the foundation of Coordination Chemistry. Elucidating the nature of the metal-ligand interactions and recognizing their central role in determining the structures and properties of coordination complexes soon became subjects of major endeavour. The complexity of some of the ligands used today contrasts with those found in Wernerʼs chemistry (halides, water, ammonia, ethylenediamine,...) and they often require multistep organic synthesis. Interestingly, in the days of this chemistry giant, the notion that metal-metal bonding could occur within molecules, and not only within bulk metals, was non-existent. Later on, it was recognized that such bonding could exist and be responsible for holding together dior trinuclear complexes, as in [Mn2(CO)10] 2 or [Ru3(CO)12]. 3 The new and fast growing field of cluster chemistry became coined a “post-Wernerian chemistry”. Already in 1999, a 3 volumes book was not sufficient to cover all the aspects of the synthetic, structural and theoretical chemistry of metal clusters and their diverse applications in numerous fields of modern science. In this Account, we shall examine selected examples of complexes in which the ligands play an essential role in determining the overall molecular properties. We will limit ourselves to those relevant to catalytic applications in ethylene oligomerization. Some polynuclear complexes and metal clusters, where the nuclearity and the nature of the metals present are of primary concern, will also be discussed. The molecular chemistʼs toolbox allows the combination of ligands, which can range from a single atom to complex biorelevant molecules, and metals to form monoor polynuclear metal complexes. When metal centres are associated within the same molecule through metal-metal interactions, clusters This Account will focus on some recent aspects of the research performed in the authorʼs laboratory. Selected examples of complexes in which the ligands play an essential role in determining the molecular properties will be examined. Concerning the applications of these complexes, we will limit ourselves to some aspects related to the catalytic oligomerization of ethylene. In the search for such catalysts, we found that deprotonation of N,OH ligands chelated to Ni(II) with NaH can give rise to a range of heterometallic Na-Ni polynuclear complexes. In addition to their catalytic relevance, their magnetic properties were also investigated and have revealed in some cases Single Molecule Magnet behaviour.

Recently, nano-sized MOFs have been studied as drug delivery vehicles and biomedical imaging agents. Despite the growing interest on MOFs in the biological field, their instability and poor biocompatibility restrict their application to biomaterials. In order to improve the stability and to provide biocompatibility, surface modification of MOFs has been advanced by using a thin silica shell, hydrophilic organic polymers (PEG and PVP) and biomolecules. In this topic, I focus on the recent researches on the surface modification of MOF nanoparticles with biomolecules such as nucleic acid, lipid bilayer and protein. The MOF nanoparticles covered with biomolecules exhibit increased stability under physiological condition, and enhanced cellular uptake compared with unmodified MOF nanoparticles. These results clearly indicate that biomolecule conjugation to MOFs is a useful strategy for creating novel biomaterials.

The emission is called phosphorescence, which can be frequently observed even at room temperature. This review indicates the problems that inorganic chemists may confront while measuring the emission spectra and the emission quantum yields of metal complexes and introduces the IUPAC project to prepare the guidelines for the measurements. Common textbooks in photochemistry usually aim at the physical and/or organic chemists, and they are not always suitable for inorganic chemists who measure the room-temperature phosphorescence. This review describes the procedures for measuring the emission spectra and the quantum yields of the metal complexes in solution from the viewpoints of selection of solvent, sample concentration, de-aeration, and temperature control. It describes both the relative and absolute methods to determine the emission quantum yields. It further indicates that the measurements of solid-state samples are much more difficult than solutions and recommends that the experimental conditions are reported in as much details as possible.","PeriodicalId":72479,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.4019/BJSCC.64.14","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70513244","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
