Stable Magnesium(I) Compounds with Mg-Mg Bonds
TL;DR: The reductions of two magnesium(II) iodide complexes with potassium metal in toluene, leading to thermally stable magnesium(I) compounds, (L)MgMg(L) in moderate yields, consistent with central Mg 2+2 units that have single, covalent magnesium-magnesium bonding interactions.

TL;DR: The preparation and characterization of a series of magnesium(II) iodide complexes incorporating beta-diketiminate ligands of varying steric bulk and denticity, namely, [(ArNCMe)(2)CH](-) (Ar=phenyl), mesityl ((Mes)Nacnac), or 2,6-diisopropylphenyl (Dipp, ( Dipp)NACnac) are reported.

TL;DR: Simple two-coordinate acyclic silylene species, SiR(2), can be synthesized which is stable in the solid state up to 130 °C and undergoes facile oxidative addition reactions with dihydrogen and with alkyl C-H bonds, thus demonstrating fundamental modes of reactivity more characteristic of transition metal systems.

Bulky guanidinates for the stabilization of low oxidation state metallacycles
TL;DR: Very bulky guanidinate ligands have been used to prepare unprecedented examples of heterocycles containing groups 2, 13, 14 or 15 elements in the +1 oxidation state as mentioned in this paper.
