The compounds and complexes 1,4-C6H4(C≡C-cyclo-3-C4H3S)2(2), trans-[Pt(C≡C-cyclo-3-C4H3S)2(PEt3)2] (3), trans-[Ru(C≡C-cyclo-3-C4H3S)2(dppe)2] (4; dppe=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) and trans-[Ru(C≡C-cyclo-3-C4H3S)2{P(OEt)3}4] (5) featuring the 3-thienyl moiety as a surface contacting group for gold electrodes have been prepared, crystallographically characterised in the case of 3–5 and studied in metal|molecule|metal junctions by using both scanning tunnelling microscope break-junction (STM-BJ) and STM-I(s) methods (measuring the tunnelling current (I) as a function of distance (s)). The compounds exhibit similar conductance profiles, with a low conductance feature being more readily identified by STM-I(s) methods, and a higher feature by the STM-BJ method. The lower conductance feature was further characterised by analysis using an unsupervised, automated multi-parameter vector classification (MPVC) of the conductance traces. The combination of similarly structured HOMOs and non-resonant tunnelling mechanism accounts for the remarkably similar conductance values across the chemically distinct members of the family 2–5.

A new palladium-catalyzed domino alkyne insertion/C-H activation/decarboxylation sequence has been developed, which provides an efficient approach for synthesizing a variety of functionalized phenanthrenes in moderate to good yields. The method shows broad substrate scope and good functional group tolerance by employing readily available materials, including aryl iodides, internal alkynes, and o-bromobenzoic acids, as three-component coupling partners.

Push–pull diaryl alkynes are dimerized in the presence of a cationic gold catalyst. The polarized structure of the applied starting materials enables the generation of a highly reactive vinyl cation intermediate in an intermolecular reaction. Trapping of the vinyl cation by a nucleophilic attack of the electron-poor aryl unit then leads to the selective formation of highly substituted naphthalenes in a single step and in complete atom economy.
