Calculations show that the presence of an aromatic bidentate ligand attached to a transition metal, or even a main group element, such as boron, can lead to effective catalysts for,a, range of important reactions, such as the dehydrogenation of ammonia borane and formic acid and the activation of the N-H, bond in aromatic amities. Moreover, it is shown that the design of tridentate pincer complexes with the aromatic group at a terminal end can lead to effective M-C cooperativity. As such, the current work introduces a new concept in cooperativity and bond activation chemistry.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7.572
