Two novel pseudo-Cs-symmetric heterobimetallic bissalen complexes have been synthesized, one containing chromium and cobalt and the other containing chromium and manganese. The design is based on a previously unexploited method; breaking the symmetry of an achiral meso-ligand by insertion of two different metal ions. The synthesized complexes are expected to catalyze the asymmetric ring-opening of

A species phenology is central to its ecology. Phenology is linked to development time and in extension size. Phenological differences can be found in both inter- and intraspecific comparisons.
