Recent advances in the synthesis of water‐soluble homoscorpionates of the tris(pyrazol‐1‐yl)methane type as well as of their water‐soluble metal complexes are reviewed. Moreover, the application of these tris(pyrazol‐1‐yl)methane metal complexes as catalysts for the oxidative functionalization of inexpensive and abundant alkanes to value‐added products and other industrially significant reactions is addressed. We also focus on the main biological (antiproliferative and antimicrobial) applications of such C‐scorpionate‐type complexes.
