Abstract
Described herein are the synthesis, structure, and photophysics of the iodo-substituted cyclic trinuclear copper(I) complex, Cu3[4-I-3,5-(CF3)2Pz]3 supported by a highly-fluorinated pyrazolate in comparison with its previously reported 4-Br/4-Cl analogues. The crystal structure is stabilised by multiple supramolecular interactions of Cu3⋯I and hydrogen/halogen bonding. The photophysical properties and supramolecular interactions are investigated experimentally/computationally for all three 4-halo complexes vis-à-vis relativistic effects.

Abstract
![]()
Coinage metal cyclic trinuclear compounds
(CTCs) are an emerging
class of metal coordination compounds that are valuable for many fine
optoelectronic applications, even though the reactivity dependence
by the different bridging ligands remains somewhat unclear. In this
work, to furnish some hints to unravel the effect of substituents
on the chemistry of Au(I) CTCs made of a specific class of bridging
ligand, we have considered two imidazolate Au(I) CTCs and the effect
of different substituents on the pyrrolic N atoms relative to classic
metal oxidations with I2 or by probing electrophilic additions.
Experimental suggestions depict a thin borderline between the addition
of MeI to the N-methyl or N-benzyl imidazolyl CTCs, which afford the
oxidized CTC in the former and the ring opening of the CTC and the
formation of carbene species in the latter. Moreover, the reactions
with iodine yield to the oxidation of the metal centers for the former
and just of a metal center in the latter, even in molar excess of
iodine. The analysis of the bond distances in the X-ray crystal structures
of the oxidized highlights that Au(III)-C and Au(III)-N bonds are
longer than observed for Au(I)–C and Au(I)–N bonds,
as formally not expected for Au(III) centers. Computational studies
converge on the attribution of these discrepancies to an additional
case of inverted ligand field (ILF), which solves the question with
a new interpretation of the Au(I)–ligand bonding in the oxidized
CTCs, which furnishes a new interpretation of the Au(I)-ligand bonding
in the oxidized CTCs, opening a discussion about addition/oxidation
reactions. Finally, the theoretical studies outputs depict energy
profiles that are compatible with the experimental results obtained
in the reaction of the two CTCs toward the addition of I2, MeI, and HCl. A revisitation
of some classic oxidation reactions of gold
centers in cyclic trinuclear compounds (CTCs) provides experimental
results leading to the opportunity to delineate the effect of imidazole
substituents in different outcomes from the reactions of CTCs with
I2 or MeI. Moreover, with the match between experimental
and theoretical results, a new interpretation of the oxidation states
of tetracoordinate gold as cases of inverted ligand field (ILF) is
discussed.

Abstract
Triangular silver(i) and copper(i) 3,5-diethyl-4-nitropyrazolates (abbreviated as [Ag(denpz)]3 or Ag3pz3, and [Cu(denpz)]3 or Cu3pz3), as well as their adducts with dibenzothiophene (DBT), 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (DMDBT) and benzothiophene (BT), have been prepared and characterized by a series of techniques. X-ray analyses show that these adducts are stabilized by MS, MC contacts and ππ stacking interactions. NMR measurements and theoretical calculations indicate that the intensity of interaction between the metal complexes and dibenzothiophenes follows the trend: Ag3pz3-DMDBT > Ag3pz3-DBT > Cu3pz3-DMDBT > Cu3pz3-DBT, which can be understood on the basis of a weak interaction between π-acid (Ag3pz3 or Cu3pz3) and π-base (DBT/DMDBT). Both complexes show good adsorptive ability and reusability toward the removal of DBT and DMDBT from model oil (n-octane), with the maximum adsorption capacity at room temperature being 39 mg S (DMDBT) per g Cu3pz3, 34 mg S (DMDBT) per g Ag3pz3, 40 mg S (DBT) per g Cu3pz3, 36 mg S (DBT) per g Ag3pz3, respectively. Compared to Ag3pz3, Cu3pz3 exhibits higher adsorptive capacities for DBT/DMDBT, which has been attributed to its lower molecular mass.

Abstract
Five luminescent polymorphic aggregates of trinuclear Cu(i)-pyrazolate, namely [anti-Cu3L3]2 (1), [syn-Cu3L3·C2H5OH]2 (2), [anti-Cu3L3·C2H5OH]n (3), [anti-Cu3L3·0.5C7H8]n (4) and [syn-Cu3L3·C8H10]n (5) (HL = 4-(pyridin-4-ylthio)-3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole), were reported. The trimeric Cu3L3 fragments present syn- and anti-conformations dependent on the dangled direction of 4-pyridyl groups on the two sides of the Cu3Pz3 plane (Pz = pyrazolate). Intertrimeric NPyCu weak coordination bonds associate these Cu3L3 fragments together to form dimeric or polymeric structures, which are further stabilized by crystallized solvent molecules or intertrimeric CuCu interactions. The solvated complexes (3-5) may be transformed into the unsolvated complex 1 by evacuation of the crystallized solvents upon heating. All these complexes emit from green to yellow under UV irradiation, which originated from the triplet excited states of metal to ligand charge transfer (3MLCT) mixed with intertrimeric CuCu interactions. This work provides a novel kind of supramolecular aggregate based on Cu3Pz3 beyond the classical π-acidbase adducts and metallophilicity-dependent dimers/oligomers.

Abstract
Among the d10 coinage metal complexes, cyclic trinuclear complexes (CTCs) or trinuclear metallocycles with intratrimer metal-metal interactions are fascinating and important metal-organic or organometallic π-acids/bases. Each CTC of characteristic planar or near-planar trimetal nine-membered rings consists of Au(I)/Ag(I)/Cu(I) cations that linearly coordinate with N and/or C atoms in ditopic anionic bridging ligands. Since the first discovery of Au(I) CTC in the 1970s, research of CTCs has involved several fundamental areas, including noncovalent and metallophilic interaction, excimer/exciplex, acid-base chemistry, metalloaromaticity, supramolecular assemblies, and host/guest chemistry. These allow CTCs to be embraced in a wide range of innovative potential applications that include chemical sensing, semiconducting, gas and liquid adsorption/separation, catalysis, full-color display, and solid-state lighting. This review aims to provide a historic and comprehensive summary on CTCs and their extension to higher nuclearity complexes and coordination polymers from the perspectives of synthesis, structure, theoretical insight, and potential applications.
