Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
A synthetic strategy for the preparation of a new class of ligands is introduced. The bis(aldimine-thioether-phenolate) ligands bear two anionic oxygen donors from phenolate moieties, two neutral sulfur donors and two neutral nitrogen donors belonging, respectively, to thioether and aldimine functionalities. The so designed OSNNSO ligands show two coordinative pockets and thus should be able to host two metallic centers. Instead, the aldimine-thioether-phenolate OSN ligands are tridentate ligands which may form monometallic complexes. Two OSNNSO and one OSN ligands of this class, have been synthesized. Satisfyingly, by direct reaction of the ligands with one or two equivalents of the zinc precursor, the corresponding bimetallic Zn(II) complexes were prepared from the bis(aldimine-thioether-phenolate) ligands, while the monometallic zinc complex was prepared from the tridentate ligand. These zinc amido complexes act as single component catalysts in the reaction of CO with cyclohexene oxide by furnishing polycyclohexene carbonate, while adding PPNCl as cocatalyst to the reaction medium, cyclohexene carbonates were obtained as the main products.
