From betaines to anionic N-heterocyclic carbenes. Borane, gold, rhodium, and nickel complexes starting from an imidazoliumphenolate and its carbene tautomer.

ABSTRACT: The mesomeric betaine imidazolium-1-ylphenolate forms a borane adduct with tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane by coordination with the phenolate oxygen, whereas its NHC tautomer 1-(2-phenol)imidazol-2-ylidene reacts with (triphenylphosphine)gold(I) chloride to give the cationic NHC complex [Au(NHC)₂][Cl] by coordination with the carbene carbon atom. The anionic N-heterocyclic carbene 1-(2-phenolate)imidazol-2-ylidene gives the complexes [K][Au(NHC^-)₂], [Rh(NHC^-)₃] and [Ni(NHC^-)₂], respectively. Results of four single crystal analyses are presented.

Rhodium and Iridium Complexes of Anionic Thione and Selone Ligands Derived from Anionic N-Heterocyclic Carbenes.

Project description:The lithium salts of anionic N-heterocyclic thiones and selones [{(WCA-IDipp)E}Li(toluene)] (1: E=S; 2: E=Se; WCA=B(C6 F5 )3 , IDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene), which contain a weakly coordinating anionic (WCA) borate moiety in the imidazole backbone were reacted with Me3 SiCl, to furnish the silylated adducts (WCA-IDipp)ESiMe3 (3: E=S; 4: E=Se). The reaction of the latter with [(η5 -C5 Me5 )MCl2 ]2 (M=Rh, Ir) afforded the rhodium(III) and iridium(III) half-sandwich complexes [{(WCA-IDipp)E}MCl(η5 -C5 Me5 )] (5-8). The direct reaction of the lithium salts 1 and 2 with a half or a full equivalent of [M(COD)Cl]2 (M=Rh, Ir) afforded the monometallic complexes [{(WCA-IDipp)E}M(COD)] (9-12) or the bimetallic complexes [μ2 -{(WCA-IDipp)E}M2 (COD)2 (μ2 -Cl)] (13-16), respectively. The bonding situation in these complexes has been investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, revealing thiolate or selenolate ligand character with negligible metal-chalcogen π-interaction.

Halogen Complexes of Anionic N-Heterocyclic Carbenes.

Project description:The lithium complexes [(WCA-NHC)Li(toluene)] of anionic N-heterocyclic carbenes with a weakly coordinating anionic borate moiety (WCA-NHC) reacted with iodine, bromine, or CCl4 to afford the zwitterionic 2-halogenoimidazolium borates (WCA-NHC)X (X=I, Br, Cl; WCA=B(C6 F5 )3 , B{3,5-C6 H3 (CF3 )2 }3 ; NHC=IDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene, or NHC=IMes=1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene). The iodine derivative (WCA-IDipp)I (WCA=B(C6 F5 )3 ) formed several complexes of the type (WCA-IDipp)I⋅L (L=C6 H5 Cl, C6 H5 Me, CH3 CN, THF, ONMe3 ), revealing its ability to act as an efficient halogen bond donor, which was also exploited for the preparation of hypervalent bis(carbene)iodine(I) complexes of the type [(WCA-IDipp)I(NHC)] and [PPh4 ][(WCA-IDipp)I(WCA-NHC)] (NHC=IDipp, IMes). The corresponding bromine complex [PPh4 ][(WCA-IDipp)2 Br] was isolated as a rare example of a hypervalent (10-Br-2) system. DFT calculations reveal that London dispersion contributes significantly to the stability of the bis(carbene)halogen(I) complexes, and the bonding was further analyzed by quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) analysis.

N-Heterocyclic Carbene Organocatalysis: With or Without Carbenes?

Project description:In this work the mechanism of the aldehyde umpolung reactions, catalyzed by azolium cations in the presence of bases, was studied through computational methods. Next to the mechanism established by Breslow in the 1950s that takes effect through the formation of a free carbene, we have suggested that these processes can follow a concerted asynchronous path, in which the azolium cation directly reacts with the substrate, avoiding the formation of the carbene intermediate. We hereby show that substituting the azolium cation, and varying the base or the substrate do not affect the preference for the concerted reaction mechanism. The concerted path was found to exhibit low barriers also for the reactions of thiamine with model substrates, showing that this path might have biological relevance. The dominance of the concerted mechanism can be explained through the specific structure of the key transition state, avoiding the liberation of the highly reactive, and thus unstable carbene lone pair, whereas activating the substrate through hydrogen-bonding interactions. Polar and hydrogen-bonding solvents, as well as the presence of the counterions of the azolium salts facilitate the reaction through carbenes, bringing the barriers of the two reaction mechanisms closer, in many cases making the concerted path less favorable. Thus, our data show that by choosing the exact components in a reaction, the mechanism can be switched to occur with or without carbenes.

Group 13 Element Trihalide Complexes of Anionic N-Heterocyclic Carbenes.

Project description:A series of group 13 complexes of the general type [{(WCA-IDipp)EX3 }Li(solv)] (E=B, Al, Ga, In; X=Cl, Br) that bear an anionic N-heterocyclic carbene ligand with a weakly coordinating borate moiety (WCA-IDipp, WCA=B(C6 F5 )3 and IDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene) were prepared by the reaction of the respective group 13 trihalides (EX3 ) with the lithium salt [(WCA-IDipp)Li???toluene]. The molecular structures of the BBr3 , AlCl3 , AlBr3 , GaCl3 and InCl3 adducts were established by X-ray diffraction analyses, revealing the formation of coordination polymers linked by halide-lithium interactions, except for the indium derivative, which consists of isolated [Li(THF)4 ]+ and [(WCA-IDipp)InCl3 ]- ions in the solid state.

Heterobimetallic Coinage Metal-Ruthenium Complexes Supported by Anionic N-Heterocyclic Carbenes.

Project description:The lithium complexes [(WCA-NHC)Li(toluene)] of anionic N-heterocyclic carbenes with a weakly coordinating borate moiety (WCA-NHC, WCA=B(C6 F5 )3 , NHC=IDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene) were used for the preparation of silver(I) or copper(I) WCA-NHC complexes. While the reactions in THF with AgCl or CuCl afforded anionic mono- and dicarbene complexes with solvated lithium counterions [Li(THF)n ]+ (n=3, 4), the reactions in toluene proceeded with elimination of LiCl and formation of the neutral phosphine and arene complexes [(WCA-NHC)M(PPh3 )] and [(WCA-NHC)M(η2 -toluene)] (M=Ag, Cu). The latter were used for the preparation of chlorido- and iodido-bridged heterobimetallic Ag/Ru and Cu/Ru complexes [(WCA-NHC)M(μ-X)2 Ru(PPh3 )(η6 -p-cymene)] (M=Ag, Cu, X=Cl; M=Ag, X=I). Surprisingly, these complexes resisted the elimination of CuCl, AgCl, or AgI, precluding WCA-NHC transmetalation.

Dimerisation, rhodium complex formation and rearrangements of N-heterocyclic carbenes of indazoles.

Project description:Deprotonation of indazolium salts at low temperatures gives N-heterocyclic carbenes of indazoles (indazol-3-ylidenes) which can be trapped as rhodium complexes (X-ray analysis). In the absence of Rh, the indazol-3-ylidenes spontaneously dimerize under ring cleavage of one of the N,N-bonds and ring closure to an indazole-indole spiro compound which possesses an exocyclic imine group. The E/Z isomers of the imines can be separated by column chromatography when methanol is used as eluent. We present results of a single crystal X-ray analysis of one of the E-isomers, which equilibrate in solution as well as in the solid state. Heating of the indazole-indole spiro compounds results in the formation of quinazolines by a ring-cleavage/ring-closure sequence (X-ray analysis). Results of DFT calculations are presented.

Sulfur, mercury, and boron adducts of sydnone imine derived anionic N-heterocyclic carbenes.

Project description:The sydnone imines (5-benzoylimino)-3-(2-methoxyphenyl)-sydnone imine and molsidomine were deprotonated at C4 to give sydnone imine anions which can be represented as anionic N-heterocyclic carbenes, respectively. Trapping reactions with sulfur gave unstable sydnone imine sulfides which were stabilized by the formation of methyl thioethers, methyl sulfoxides, gold complexes [(PPh3)Au-S-sydnone imine] and a bis(ligand) mercury(ii) complex. The latter possesses a tetrahedral coordination of the mercury central atom to the sulfur atoms with the N6 nitrogen atoms coordinating as neutral ligands. Water converted the molsidomine anion into ethyl(2-morpholino-2-thioxoacetyl)carbamate. Mercury(ii)chloride and triphenylborane were employed to trap the sydnone imine carbenes as mercury complexes as well as BPh3 adducts.

A cationic rhodium(I) N-heterocyclic carbene complex isolated as an aqua adduct.

Project description:The title complex, aqua-[1,3-bis-(2,6-diiso-propyl-phen-yl)imid-az-ol-2-yl-idene](η(4)-cyclo-octa-1,5-diene)rhodium(I) tetra-fluor-ido-borate, [Rh(C(8)H(12))(C(27)H(36)N(2))(H(2)O)]BF(4), exihibits a square-planar geometry around the Rh(I) atom, formed by a bidentate cyclo-octa-1,5-diene (cod) ligand, an N-heterocylcic carbene and an aqua ligand. The complex is cationic and a BF(4) (-) anion balances the charge. The structure exists as a hydrogen-bonded dimer in the solid state, formed via inter-actions between the aqua ligand H atoms and the BF(4) (-) F atoms.

α-Amino-iso-Butyric Acid Foldamers Terminated with Rhodium(I) N-Heterocyclic Carbene Catalysts.

Project description:To investigate how remotely induced changes in ligand folding might affect catalysis by organometallic complexes, dynamic α-amino-iso-butyric acid (Aib) peptide foldamers bearing rhodium(I) N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes have been synthesized and studied. X-ray crystallography of a foldamer with an N-terminal azide and a C-terminal Rh(NHC)(Cl)(diene) complex showed a racemate with a chiral axis in the Rh(NHC) complex and a distorted 310 helical body. Replacing the azide with either one or two chiral L-α-methylvaline (L-αMeVal) residues gave diastereoisomeric foldamers that each possessed point, helical and axial chirality. NMR spectroscopy revealed an unequal ratio of diastereoisomers for some foldamers, indicating that the chiral conformational preference of the N-terminal residue(s) was relayed down the 1 nm helical body to the axially chiral Rh(NHC) complex. Although the remote chiral residue(s) did not affect the stereoselectivity of hydrosilylation reactions catalysed by these foldamers, these studies suggest a potential pathway towards remote conformational control of organometallic catalysts.

N-Heterocyclic Carbene Bound Nickel(I) Complexes and Their Roles in Catalysis.

Project description:New paramagnetic Ni(I)(IMes)(2)X (IMes: 1,3-bis-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-imidazol-2-ylidene) were prepared from the reaction of Ni(IMes)(2) with aryl halides. Products that would arise from oxidative addition were not observed. In contrast, Ni(II)(tmiy)(2)(X)(Ar) was formed from the oxidative addition of aryl halides to Ni bound by a sterically-less hindered NHC ligand, tmiy (tetramethylimidazol-2-ylidene). The paramagnetic Ni(I)(IMes)(2)X complexes were compared to known Ni(0) and Ni(II) catalysts for Kumada and Suzuki coupling reactions. Stoichiometric reactions between the Ni(I)(IMes)(2)X complexes with aryl halides and transmetallating agents were also evaluated.
