	abstract = {Silylation of a dinuclear tantalum complex containing a side- on end-on coordinated dinitrogen ligand initiates a sequence of reactions ultimately leading to a bis(mu-imido) structure. DFT is employed to determine the energetics of the entire reaction cascade. Particular emphasis is put on the unprecedented N-N cleavage reaction of the functionalized, mu-eta(1):eta(2) coordinated dinitrogen ligand. A mechanism for this reaction is derived theoretically and the corresponding transition state is determined.},

	abstract = {The reaction of [Co-2(CO)(8)] with (CF3)(3)BCO in hexane leads to the Lewis acid-base adduct [CO2(CO)(7)COB(CF3)(3)] in high yield. When the reaction is performed in anhydrous HF solution [Co(CO)(5)][(CF3)(3)BF] is isolated. The product contains the first example of a homoleptic metal pentacarbonyl cation with 18 valence electrons and a trigonal-bipyramidal structure. Treatment of [Co-2(CO)(8)] or [Co(CO)(3)NO] with NO+ salts of weakly coordinating anions results in mixed crystals containing the [Co(CO)(5)](+)/[Co(CO)(2)(NO)(2)](+) ions or pure novel [Co(CO)(2)(NO)(2)](+) salts, respectively. This is a promising route to other new metal carbonyl nitrosyl cations or even homoleptic metal nitrosyl cations. All compounds were characterized by vibrational spectroscopy and by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.},

	abstract = {As the first examples of homoleptic, sigma-bonded superelectrophilic metal carbonyl cations with tetrafluoroborate [BF4](-) as the counter anions three thermally stable salts of the composition [M(CO)(6)][BF4](2) (M = Fe, Ru, Os) have been synthesized and extensively characterized by thermochemical, structural, and spectroscopic methods. A common synthetic route, the oxidative carbonylation of either Fe(CO)(5) (XeF2 as the oxidizer) or M-3(CO)(12) (M = Ru, Os) (F-2 as the oxidizer) in the conjugate Bronsted-Lewis superacid HF/BF3, was employed. The thermal behavior of the three salts, studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and gas-phase IR spectroscopy of the decomposition products, has been compared to that of the corresponding [SbF6](-) salts. The molecular structures Of [M(CO)(6)][BF4](2) (M = Fe, Os) were obtained by single-crystal X-ray diffraction at 100 K. X-ray powder diffraction data for [M(CO)(6)][BF4](2) (M = Ru, Os) were obtained between 100 and 300 K in intervals of 50 K. All three salts are isostructural and crystallized in the tetragonal space group I4/m (No. 87). As for the corresponding [M(CO)(6)][SbF6](2) salts (M = Fe, Flu, Os), similar unit cell parameters and vibrational fundamentals were also found for the three [BF4](-) compounds. For the structurally characterized salts [M(CO)(6)][BF4](2) (M =. Fe, Os), very similar bond parameters for both cations and anions were found. Hence, the invariance of structural and spectroscopic properties Of [M(CO)(6)](2+) cations (M = Fe, Ru, Os) extended from the fluoroantimonates [Sb2F11](-) and [SbF6](-) as counteranions also to [BF4](-).},

Besides the anti-diabetic effects for which it is now so well known, vanadium also exhibits a number of other therapeutic effects including anti-tumour and anti-inflammatory activities. In this review, emphasis will be on the most recent developments in the coordination chemistry of vanadium(III), (IV) and (V), as related to development of these compounds for pharmaceutical use. How best to measure bioactivity and the pharmaceutical relevance of accompanying increased oxidative stress will also be considered. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.},
