Ligand functionalization as a deactivation pathway in a fac-Ir(ppy)₃-mediated radical addition.

ABSTRACT: Knowledge of the kinetic behavior of catalysts under synthetically relevant conditions is vital for the efficient use of compounds that mediate important transformations regardless of their composition or driving force. In particular, these data are of great importance to add perspective to the growing number of applications of photoactive transition metal complexes. Here we present kinetic, synthetic, and spectroscopic evidence of the mechanistic behavior of fac-Ir(ppy)₃ in a visible light-mediated radical addition to 3-methylindole, demonstrating the instability of fac-Ir(ppy)₃ under these conditions. During the reaction, rapid in situ functionalization of the photocatalyst occurs, eventually leading to deactivation. These findings demonstrate a conceivable deactivation process for catalytic single electron reactions in the presence of radicophilic ligands. Attempts to inhibit photocatalyst deactivation through structural modification provide further insight into catalyst selection for a given system of interest.

Quantum Chemical Design Guidelines for Absorption and Emission Color Tuning of fac-Ir(ppy)? Complexes.

Project description:The fac-Ir(ppy)? complex, where ppy denotes 2-phenylpyridine, is one of the well-known luminescent metal complexes having a high quantum yield. However, there have been no specific molecular design guidelines for color tuning. For example, it is still unclear how its optical properties are changed when changing substitution groups of ligands. Therefore, in this study, differences in the electronic structures and optical properties among several substituted fac-Ir(ppy)? derivatives are examined in detail by density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TD-DFT) calculations. On the basis of those results, we present rational design guidelines for absorption and emission color tuning by modifying the species of substituents and their substitution positions.

Oxidative Addition of Water to Ir(I) Complexes Bearing a Pincer-Type Silyl Ligand.

Project description:Reaction of water with in situ generated [(PSiP-R)IrI] (PSiP-R = [{2-(R2P)C6H4}2MeSi]-; R = cyclohexyl, tBu or iPr) from [(PSiP-R)Ir(H)4] and tert-butylethylene (tbe) showed high ligand dependency. Oxidative addition of water cleanly proceeded in the reaction of [(PSiP-tBu)IrI] in THF at room temperature to selectively afford a 16-electron hydrido-hydroxo complex [(PSiP- t Bu)Ir(H)(OH)] almost quantitatively. In contrast, the reaction of cyclohexyl and iPr derivatives was unselective and formed various products containing Ir-H bonds. In the case of iPr-derivative, a small amount of 18-electron hydrido-hydroxo aqua complex [(PSiP-iPr)Ir(H)(OH)(H2O)] was isolated and structurally characterized by X-ray crystallography.

Amine-borane complex-initiated SF5Cl radical addition on alkenes and alkynes.

Project description:The SF5Cl radical addition on unsaturated compounds was performed using an air-stable amine-borane complex as the radical initiator. This method showed to be complementary to the classic Et3B-mediated SF5Cl addition on alkenes and alkynes. A total of seven alkene and three alkyne derivatives were tested in the reaction, with yields ranging from 3% to 85%.

Solvent Additive-Induced Deactivation of the Cu-ZnO(Al2O3)-Catalyzed γ-Butyrolactone Hydrogenolysis: A Rare Deactivation Process.

Project description:This work reports initial results on the effect of low concentrations (ppm level) of a stabilizing agent (2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol, BHT) present in an off-the-shelf solvent on the catalyst performance for the hydrogenolysis of γ-butyrolactone over Cu-ZnO-based catalysts. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was employed as an alternative solvent in the hydrogenolysis of γ-butyrolactone. It was found that the Cu-ZnO catalyst performance using a reference solvent (1,4-dioxane) was good, meaning that the equilibrium conversion was achieved in 240 min, while a zero conversion was found when employing tetrahydrofuran. The deactivation was studied in more detail, arriving at the preliminary conclusion that one phenomenon seems to play a role: the poisoning effect of a solvent additive present at the ppm level (BHT) that appears to inhibit the reaction completely over a Cu-ZnO catalyst. The BHT effect was also visible over a commercial Cu-ZnO-MgO-Al2O3 catalyst but less severe than that over the Cu-ZnO catalyst. Hence, the commercial catalyst is more tolerant to the solvent additive, probably due to the higher surface area. The study illustrates the importance of solvent choice and purification for applications such as three-phase-catalyzed reactions to achieve optimal performance.

Mol-ecular structure of fac-[Mo(CO)3(DMSO)3].

Project description:The title compound, tri-carbonyl-tris-(dimethyl sulfoxide)-molybdenum, [Mo(C2H6OS)3(CO)3] or fac-[Mo(CO)3(DMSO)3], crystallizes in the triclinic space group P with two mol-ecules in the unit cell. The geometry around the central molybdenum is slightly distorted octa-hedral and the facial isomer is found exclusively. The packing within the crystal is stabilized by three-dimensional non-classical inter-molecular hydrogen-bonding contacts between individual methyl substituents of di-methyl sulfoxide and the oxygen atoms of either another di-methyl sulfoxide or a carbonyl ligand on adjacent complex mol-ecules. The observed bond lengths in the carbonyl ligands and between carbonyl carbon atoms and molybdenum are correlated to the observed FT-IR bands for the carbonyl stretches and compared to respective metrical parameters of related complexes.

Bioactive Peptide Brush Polymers via Photoinduced Reversible-Deactivation Radical Polymerization.

Project description:Harnessing metal-free photoinduced reversible-deactivation radical polymerization (photo-RDRP) in organic and aqueous phases, we report a synthetic approach to enzyme-responsive and pro-apoptotic peptide brush polymers. Thermolysin-responsive peptide-based polymeric amphiphiles assembled into spherical micellar nanoparticles that undergo a morphology transition to worm-like micelles upon enzyme-triggered cleavage of coronal peptide sidechains. Moreover, pro-apoptotic polypeptide brushes show enhanced cell uptake over individual peptide chains of the same sequence, resulting in a significant increase in cytotoxicity to cancer cells. Critically, increased grafting density of pro-apoptotic peptides on brush polymers correlates with increased uptake efficiency and concurrently, cytotoxicity. The mild synthetic conditions afforded by photo-RDRP, make it possible to access well-defined peptide-based polymer bioconjugate structures with tunable bioactivity.

Mechanisms of IR amplification in radical cation polarons.

Project description:Break down of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation is caused by mixing of electronic and vibrational transitions in the radical cations of some conjugated polymers, resulting in unusually intense vibrational bands known as infrared active vibrations (IRAVs). Here, we investigate the mechanism of this amplification, and show that it provides insights into intramolecular charge migration. Spectroelectrochemical time-resolved infrared (TRIR) and two-dimensional infrared (2D-IR) spectroscopies were used to investigate the radical cations of two butadiyne-linked conjugated porphyrin oligomers, a linear dimer and a cyclic hexamer. The 2D-IR spectra reveal strong coupling between all the IRAVs and the electronic π-π* polaron band. Intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution (IVR) and vibrational relaxation occur within ∼0.1-7 ps. TRIR spectra show that the transient ground state bleach (GSB) and excited state absorption (ESA) signals have anisotropies of 0.31 ± 0.07 and 0.08 ± 0.04 for the linear dimer and cyclic hexamer cations, respectively. The small TRIR anisotropy for the cyclic hexamer radical cation indicates that the vibrationally excited polaron migrates round the nanoring on a time scale faster than the measurement, i.e. within 0.5 ps, at 298 K. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations qualitatively reproduce the emergence of the IRAVs. The first singlet (S1) excited states of the neutral porphyrin oligomers exhibit similar IRAVs to the radical cations, implying that the excitons have similar electronic structures to polarons. Our results show that IRAVs originate from the strong coupling of charge redistribution to nuclear motion, and from the similar energies of electronic and vibrational transitions.

"Weakly Ligated, Labile Ligand" Nanoparticles: The Case of Ir(0) n ·(H+Cl-) m.

Project description:It is of considerable interest to prepare weakly ligated, labile ligand (WLLL) nanoparticles for applications in areas such as chemical catalysis. WLLL nanoparticles can be defined as nanoparticles with sufficient, albeit minimal, surface ligands of moderate binding strength to meta-stabilize nanoparticles, initial stabilizer ligands that can be readily replaced by other, desired, more strongly coordinating ligands and removed completely when desired. Herein, we describe WLLL nanoparticles prepared from [Ir(1,5-COD)Cl]2 reduction under H2, in acetone. The results suggest that H+Cl--stabilized Ir(0) n nanoparticles, herein Ir(0) n ·(H+Cl-) a , serve as a WLLL nanoparticle for the preparation of, as illustrative examples, five specific nanoparticle products: Ir(0) n ·(Cl-Bu3NH+) a , Ir(0) n ·(Cl-Dodec3NH+) a , Ir(0) n ·(POct3)0.2n (Cl-H+) b , Ir(0) n ·(POct3)0.2n , and the γ-Al2O3-supported heterogeneous catalyst, Ir(0) n ·(γ-Al2O3) a (Cl-H+) b . (where a and b vary for the differently ligated nanoparticles; in addition, solvent can be present as a nanoparticle surface ligand). With added POct3 as a key, prototype example, an important feature is that a minimum, desired, experimentally determinable amount of ligand (e.g., just 0.2 equiv POct3 per mole of Ir) can be added, which is shown to provide sufficient stabilization that the resultant Ir(0) n ·(POct3)0.2n (Cl-H+) b is isolable. Additionally, the initial labile ligand stabilizer HCl can be removed to yield Ir(0) n ·(POct3)0.2n that is >99% free of Cl- by a AgCl precipitation test. The results provide strong support for the weakly ligated, labile ligand nanoparticle concept and specific support for Ir(0) n ·(H+Cl-) a as a WLLL nanoparticle.

The Chain Length Distribution of an Ideal Reversible Deactivation Radical Polymerization.

Project description:The chain length distribution (CLD) of a reversible deactivation radical polymerization at full conversion is shown to be a negative binomial distribution with parameters that are simple functions of the number-average degree of polymerization and either the chain transfer constant (in the case of polymerizations that incorporate a reversible chain transfer step) or the concentrations of dormant polymer chains and deactivating agent and the rate constants of propagation and deactivation (other types of RDRP). Expressions for the CLD at intermediate conversions are also derived, and shown to be consistent with known expressions for the number-average degree of polymerization and dispersity. It is further demonstrated that these CLDs are well-approximated by negative binomial distributions with appropriate choice of parameters. The negative binomial distribution is thus a useful model for CLDs of reversible deactivation radical polymerizations.
