Abstract

Carbene ligands Iron Magnetic properties Structure elucidation Tetrapodal pentadentate complexes
The Front Cover shows selected tetrapodal‐pentadentate “butterflies” taking flight. First noted as bearing resemblance to butterflies by Paine and Nordlander, these 5‐coordinate frameworks have found applications in areas such as H2 evolution catalysis, N2 reduction chemistry, and as scaffolds to support high‐valent metal‐oxo compounds. Our contribution to this topology consists of a carbon butterfly composed of five N‐heterocyclic carbene donors bridged by arylborate linkers to provide a dianionic framework upon removal of five protons. More information can be found in the Research Article by J. J. Scepaniak and co‐workers.
