The usefulness of transition metal catalytic systems in C-S cross-coupling reactions is significantly reduced by air and moisture sensitivity, as well as harsh reaction conditions. Herein, we report four highly air- and moisture-stable well-defined mononuclear and bridged dinuclear α-diimine Ni(II) and Pd(II) complexes for C-S cross-coupling. Various ligand frameworks, including acenaphthene- and iminopyridine-based ligands, were employed, and the resulting steric properties of the catalysts were evaluated and correlated with reaction outcomes. Under aerobic conditions and low temperatures, both Ni and Pd systems exhibited broader substrate scope and functional group tolerance than previously reported catalysts. Over 40 compounds were synthesized from thiols containing alkyl, benzyl, and heteroaryl groups. Also, pharmaceutically active heteroaryl moieties are incorporated from thiol and halide sources. Notably, the bridged dinuclear five-coordinate Ni complex has outperformed the remaining three mono four- or six-coordinate complexes by giving almost quantitative yields across a broad substrate scope.

Functional supramolecular architectures for bottom-up organic nano- and microtechnology are a high priority research topic. We discovered a new recognition algorithm, resulting from the combination of thioalkyl substituents and head-to-head regiochemistry of substitution, to induce the spontaneous self-assembly of sulfur overrich octathiophenes into supramolecular crystalline fibers combining high charge mobility and intense fluorescence. The fibers were grown on various types of surfaces either as superhelices or straight rods depending on molecular structure. Helical fibers directly grown on a field effect transistor displayed efficient charge mobility and intrinsic 'memory effect'. Despite the fact that the oligomers did not have chirality centers, one type of hand-helicity was always predominant in helical fibers, due to the interplay of molecular atropisomerism and supramolecular helicity induced by terminal substituents. Finally, we found that the new sulfur overrich oligothiophenes can easily be prepared in high yields through ultrasound and microwave assistance in green conditions.

3-Thienylzinc and 3-thienylmagnesium iodides can be generated from the direct oxidative addition of Rieke zinc and magnesium to 3-iodothiophene, respectively. The direct preparation of 3-thienylmanganese bromides from the reaction of Rieke manganese with 3-bromothiophene and 3,4-dibromothiophene is also performed. These 3-thienyl organometallic reagents have been found to be regiostable intermediates and undergo coupling reactions with a variety of versatile electrophiles such as acid chlorides, aryl iodides, aldehydes, and disulfide.
