Trimethylsilyl-Substituted Hydroxycyclopentadienyl Ruthenium Hydrides as Benchmarks to Probe Ligand and Metal Effects on the Reactivity of Shvo Type Complexes.

ABSTRACT: The bis(trimethylsilyl)-substituted hydroxycyclopentadienyl ruthenium hydride [2,5-(SiMe(3))(2)-3,4-(CH(2)OCH(2))(?(5)-C(4)COH)]Ru(CO)(2)H (10) is an efficient catalyst for hydrogenation of aldehydes and ketones. Because 10 transfers hydrogen rapidly to aldehydes and ketones and because it does not form an inactive bridging hydride during reaction, hydrogenation of aldehydes and ketones can be performed at room temperature under relatively low hydrogen pressure (3 atm); this is a significant improvement compared with previously developed Shvo type catalysts. Kinetic and (2)H NMR spectroscopic studies of the stoichiometric reduction of aldehydes and ketones by 10 established a two-step process for the hydrogen transfer: (1) rapid and reversible hydrogen bond formation between OH of 10 and the oxygen of the aldehyde or ketone, (2) followed by slow transfer of both proton and hydride from 10 to the aldehyde or ketone. The stoichiometric and catalytic activities of complex 10 are compared to those of other Shvo type ruthenium hydrides and related iron hydrides.

Project description:The luminescent, mono-diimine ruthenium complexes [(H)Ru(CO)(PPh3)2(dcbpy)][PF6] (1) (dcbpy = 4,4'-dicarboxy-2,2'-bipyridyl) and [(H)Ru(CO)(dppene)(5-amino-1,10-phen)][PF6] (2) (dppene = bis(diphenylphosphino)ethylene; phen = phenanthroline) were conjugated with 1,2-dihexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DPPE) and with cholesterol in the case of complex 2. Using standard conjugation techniques, compound 1 gives the bis-lipid derivative [(H)Ru(CO)(PPh3)2(dcbpy-N-DPPE2)][PF6] (3), while 2 provides the monolipid conjugate [(H)Ru(CO)(dppene)(1,10-phen-5-NHC(S)-N-DPPE)][PF6] (4) and the cholesterol derivative [(H)Ru(CO)(dppene)(1,10-phen-5-NHC(O)Ocholesteryl)][PF6] (5). These compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods, and their photophysical properties were measured in organic solvents. The luminescence of lipid conjugates 3 and 4 is quenched in organic solvents while compound 4 shows a weak, short-lived, blue-shifted emission in aqueous solution. The cholesterol conjugate 5 shows the long-lived, microsecond-time scale emission associated with triplet metal-to-ligand charge-transfer excited states. Incorporation of conjugate 3 in lipid bilayer vesicles restores the luminescence, but with blue shifts (~80 nm) accompanied by nanosecond-time scale lifetimes. In the vesicles conjugate 4 shows a short-lived and blue-shifted emission similar to that observed in solution but with increased intensity. Conjugation of the complex [(H)Ru(CO)(PhP2C2H4C(O)O-N-succinimidyl)2(bpy)][PF6] (6") (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridyl) with DPPE gives the phosphine-conjugated complex [(H)Ru(CO)(PhP2C2H4C(O)-N-DPPE)2(bpy)][PF6] (7). Complex 7 also exhibits a short-lived and blue-shifted emission in solution and in vesicles as observed for complexes 3 and 4. We have also conjugated the complex [Ru(bpy)2(5-amino-1,10-phen)][PF6]2 (8) with both cholesterol (9) and DPPE (10). Neither complex 9 nor the previously reported complex 10 exhibited the blue shifts observed for complexes 3 and 4 when incorporated into large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs). The anisotropies of the emissions of complexes 3, 4, and 7 were also measured in LUVs, and those of complex 5 were measured in both glycerol and LUVs. High fundamental anisotropies were observed for complexes 3, 4, and 7.
