Mechanism and transition state structure of aryl methylphosphonate esters doubly coordinated to a dinuclear cobalt(III) center.

ABSTRACT: Reactivities of five phosphonate esters each coordinated to a dinuclear Co(III) complex were investigated ([Co(2)(tacn)(2)(OH)(2){O(2)P(Me)OAr}](3+); tacn = 1,4,7-triazacyclononane; substituent = m-F, p-NO(2) (1a); p-NO(2) (1b); m-NO(2) (1c); p-Cl (1d); unsubstituted (1e)). Hydrolysis of the phosphonate esters in 1a to 1e is specific base catalyzed and takes place by intramolecular oxide attack on the bridging phosphonate. These data define a Brønsted beta(lg) of -1.12, considerably more negative than that of the hydrolysis of the uncomplexed phosphonates (-0.69). For 1b, the kinetic isotope effects in the leaving group are (18)k(lg) = 1.0228 and (15)k = 1.0014, at the nonbridging phosphoryl oxygens (18)k(nonbridge) = 0.9954, and at the nucleophilic oxygen(18)k(nuc) = 1.0105. The KIEs and the beta(lg) data point to a transition state for the alkaline hydrolysis of 1b that is similar to that of a phosphate monoester complex with the same leaving group, rather than the isoelectronic diester complex. The data from these model systems parallel the observation that in protein phosphatase-1, which has an active site that resembles the structures of these complexes, the catalyzed hydrolysis of aryl methylphosphonates and aryl phosphates are much more similar to one another than the uncomplexed hydrolysis reactions of the two substrates.

Project description:The reaction of 2,6-diformyl-4-methylphenol (DFMF) with 1-amino-2-propanol (AP) and tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (THMAM) was investigated in the presence of Cobalt(II) salts, (X = ClO4-, CH3CO2-, Cl-, NO3-), sodium azide (NaN3), and triethylamine (TEA). In one pot, the variation in Cobalt(II) salt results in the self-assembly of dinuclear, tetranuclear, and H-bonding-directed polynuclear coordination complexes of Cobalt(III), Cobalt(II), and mixed-valence CoIICoIII: [Co2III(H2L-1)2(AP-1)(N3)](ClO4)2 (1), [Co4(H2L-1)2(µ3-1,1,1-N3)2(µ-1,1-N3)2Cl2(CH3OH)2]·4CH3OH (2), [Co2IICo2III(HL-2)2(µ-CH3CO2)2(µ3-OH)2](NO3)2·2CH3CH2OH (3), and [Co2IICo2III (H2L12-)2(THMAM-1)2](NO3)4 (4). In 1, two cobalt(III) ions are connected via three single atom bridges; two from deprotonated ethanolic oxygen atoms in the side arms of the ligands and one from the1-amino-2-propanol moiety forming a dinuclear unit with a very short (2.5430(11) Å) Co-Co intermetallic separation with a coordination number of 7, a rare feature for cobalt(III). In 2, two cobalt(II) ions in a dinuclear unit are bridged through phenoxide O and μ3-1,1,1-N3 azido bridges, and the two dinuclear units are interconnected by two μ-1,1-N3 and two μ3-1,1,1-N3 azido bridges generating tetranuclear cationic [Co4(H2L-1)2(µ3-1,1,1-N3)2(µ-1,1-N3)2Cl2(CH3OH)2]2+ units with an incomplete double cubane core, which grow into polynuclear 1D-single chains along the a-axis through H-bonding. In 3, HL2- holds mixed-valent Co(II)/Co(III) ions in a dinuclear unit bridged via phenoxide O, μ-1,3-CH3CO2-, and μ3-OH- bridges, and the dinuclear units are interconnected through two deprotonated ethanolic O in the side arms of the ligands and two μ3-OH- bridges generating cationic tetranuclear [Co2IICo2III(HL-2)2(µ-CH3CO2)2(µ3-OH)2]2+ units with an incomplete double cubane core. In 4, H2L1-2 holds mixed-valent Co(II)/Co(III) ions in dinuclear units which dimerize through two ethanolic O (μ-RO-) in the side arms of the ligands and two ethanolic O (μ3-RO-) of THMAM bridges producing centrosymmetric cationic tetranuclear [Co2IICo2III (H2L1-2)2(THMAM-1)2]4+ units which grow into 2D-sheets along the bc-axis through a network of H-bonding. Bulk magnetization measurements on 2 demonstrate that the magnetic interactions are completely dominated by an overall ferromagnetic coupling occurring between Co(II) ions.
