Unlike most of the ligands therein, 2,6-bis(pyrazol-3-yl)pyridines (3-bpp) ensure that two protic groups point to the remaining coordination site in the pincer plane. This article reviews the coordination chemistry of 3-bpp and related tridentate ligands with emphasis on the characteristics originating from the Brønsted acidity of the peripheral NH groups. Synthesis of 3-bpp complexes, which often associated with spontaneous deprotonation of the 3-bpp ligand and aggregation of the complex to give supramolecular structures, is first described. Deprotonation of the 3-bpp complexes along with the following reactivities is then discussed. Application of the 3-bpp complexes to catalytic reactions as well as materials exhibiting spin-crossover and fluorescence is also described. Finally, pincer-type complexes bearing protic N -heterocyclic carbene side arms are briefly mentioned as relevant molecules.","PeriodicalId":72479,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41913518","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}

However, focusing on their structure and surface at the molecular level, there are various dynamic phenomena and processes such as deformation and reconstruction of the crystal structure as well as molecular motion such as vibration and rotation occurring in the materials. In this account, recent developments of functional PCPs based on a new design approach making use of such dynamic nature of molecular entities are described. A dynamic molecular functionality incorporated into the PCP nanochannel affords precise control of gas diffusion process in the PCP, thus enabling outstanding gas separation and storage capability. In order to visualize the dynamic behavior of PCP, atomic force microscopy was used to observe native surfaces of a PCP crystal, which enabled real-time imaging of the dynamic response of the PCP with a molecular-level resolution. In addition, an interdisciplinary approach that combines porous material chemistry and soft material chemistry, which gives novel porous soft materials with solution/thermal processable feature, is described. This bottom-up design concept that connects dynamic molecular properties to the material functions offers a promising way to the next-generation porous materials.","PeriodicalId":72479,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42594123","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}

Therefore, metal complexes could be used as platforms for switchable functional molecules with dynamic structural changes. In order to achieve structural conversions as intended, finely designed organic frameworks as well as metal centers with appropriate lability are necessary. For this purpose, the author has focused on macrocyclic, acyclic, and cage-like oligosalen structures, which can incorporate multiple metal centers at desired positions. In this review, various kinds of dynamic structural conversions, such as helicity inversion of helical complexes and open/close functions of molecular cage structures, which were developed by the author and coworkers, are described.","PeriodicalId":72479,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Japan Society of Coordination Chemistry","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49490771","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}
