“…However, over the years, a classical structure of a pincer ligand has been significantly modified, and different groups, including phosphinite, imine, thioamide, etc., as well as heterocyclic fragments, were successfully introduced as coordinating arms into a pincer framework, extending the boundaries of pincer chemistry. While phosphorus-and nitrogen-donor systems have been extensively reviewed [4,[15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28], their sulfur-containing analogs of S,E,S-types (E¼C, N, P) received markedly less attention. However, the main achievements in the field of thioetherbased sulfur-donor systems have been summarized by P. Le Floch and N. Mézailles [29].…”
