m-Benziporphodimethene is presented here as a long-wavelength Zn2+ specific chemosensor; this sensor shows fluorescence switch-on upon Zn2+ binding with no apparent background fluorescence.

The simple synthetic development of acyclic pincer bis(pyridine)carbodicarbene is depicted herein. Presented is the first isolated structural pincer carbodicarbene with a C-C-C angle of 143 degrees, larger than the monodentate framework. More importantly, theoretical analysis showed that this carbodicarbene embodies a more allene-like character. Palladium complexes supported by this pincer ligand are active catalysts for Heck-Mizoroki and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions.
