The Transition Metal Chemistry of PGeP and PSnP Pincer Heavier Tetrylenes

Abstract

AbstractInvited for the cover of this issue is the group led by Javier A. Cabeza and Pablo García‐Álvarez, in collaboration with Carlos J. Laglera‐Gándara, from the University of Oviedo, Spain. In this Minireview, they survey the current state‐of‐the‐art of the synthesis and coordination chemistry of heavier tetrylenes having a PEP pincer topology (E = heavier tetrel element). The cover image shows the remarkable structures of two PGeP pincer metal complexes and the Faculty of Chemistry, where these complexes were prepared.
