Coordination of 3-Methylindole-Based Tripodal Tetraphosphine Ligands to Iron(+II), Cobalt(+II), and Nickel(+II) and Investigations of their Subsequent Two-Electron Reduction.

ABSTRACT: We report the coordination chemistry of indole based tripodal tetraphosphine ligands to iron(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II). These complexes are formed by simple synthetic protocols and were characterized by a combination of spectroscopic techniques and single-crystal X-ray analysis. The molecular structures as determined by X-ray diffraction show that the geometry of the nickel and cobalt complexes are distorted trigonal bipyramidal. The monocationic iron(II) complexes also have distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometries, but the dicationic analogue has an octahedral geometry. Two-electron reduction of the cobalt(+II) and the nickel(+II) complexes in the presence of N₂ did not lead to the coordination of N₂. In contrast, two-electron reduction of the iron(+II) complexes did lead to coordination of dinitrogen to the iron center. The Fe⁰N₂L1^H complex has a trigonal bipyramidal geometry, and the N-N bond length of the coordinated dinitrogen ligand is longer than that of free dinitrogen, indicating that coordination to this iron(0) complex results in activation of the N?N bond.

Project description:Three new nickel(ii)-flavonolate complexes of the type [Ni(L)(fla)](ClO4) 1-3, where L is the tripodal 4N ligand tris(pyrid-2-ylmethyl)amine (tpa, L1) or (pyrid-2-ylmethyl)bis(6-methylpyrid-2-ylmethyl)amine (6-Me2-tpa, L2) or tris(N-Et-benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine (Et-ntb, L3), have been isolated as functional models for Ni(ii)-containing quercetin 2,4-dioxygenase. Single crystal X-ray structures of 1 and 3 reveal that Ni(ii) is involved in π-back bonding with flavonolate (fla-), as evident from enhancement in C[double bond, length as m-dash]O bond length upon coordination [H(fla), 1.232(3); 1, 1.245(7); 3, 1.262(8) Å]. More asymmetric chelation of fla- in 3 than in 1 [Δd = (Ni-Ocarbonyl - Ni-Oenolate): 1, 0.126; 3, 0.182 Å] corresponds to lower π-delocalization in 3 with electron-releasing N-Et substituent. The optimized structures of 1-3 and their geometrical isomers have been computed by DFT methods. The HOMO and LUMO, both localized on Ni(ii)-bound fla-, are highly conjugated bonding π- and antibonding π*-orbitals respectively. They are located higher in energy than the Ni(ii)-based MOs (HOMO-1, dx2-y2; HOMO-2/6, dz2), revealing that the Ni(ii)-bound fla- rather than Ni(ii) would undergo oxidation upon exposure to dioxygen. The results of computational studies, in combination with spectral and electrochemical studies, support the involvement of redox-inactive Ni(ii) in π-back bonding with fla-, tuning the π-delocalization in fla- and hence its activation. Upon exposure to dioxygen, all the flavonolate adducts in DMF solution decompose to produce CO and depside, which then is hydrolyzed to give the corresponding acids at 70 °C. The highest rate of dioxygenase reactivity of 3 (kO2: 3 (29.10 ± 0.16) > 1 (16.67 ± 0.70) > 2 (1.81 ± 0.04 × 10-1 M-1 s-1)), determined by monitoring the disappearance of the LMCT band in the range 440-450 nm, is ascribed to the electron-releasing N-Et substituent on bzim ring, which decreases the π-delocalization in fla- and enhances its activation.

Project description:Structural analyses of the compounds di-μ-acetato-κ4 O:O'-bis-{[2-meth-oxy-N,N-bis-(quinolin-2-ylmeth-yl)ethanamine-κ4 N,N',N'',O]manganese(II)} bis-(tetra-phen-yl-borate) di-chloro-methane 1.45-solvate, [Mn2(C23O2)2(C23H23N3O)2](C24H20B)·1.45CH2Cl2 or [Mn(DQMEA)(μ-OAc)2Mn(DQMEA)](BPh4)2·1.45CH2Cl2 or [1](BPh4)2·1.45CH2Cl2, and (acetato-κO)[2-hy-droxy-N,N-bis(quinolin-2-ylmeth-yl)ethanamine-κ4 N,N',N'',O](methanol-κO)manganese(II) tetra-phenyl-borate methanol monosolvate, [Mn(CH3COO)(C22H21N3O)(CH3OH)](C24H20B)·CH3OH or [Mn(DQEA)(OAc)(CH3OH)]BPh4·CH3OH or [2]BPh4·CH3OH, by single-crystal X-ray diffraction reveal distinct differences in the geometry of coordination of the tripodal DQEA and DQMEA ligands to MnII ions. In the asymmetric unit, compound [1](BPh4)2·(CH2Cl2)1.45 crystallizes as a dimer in which each manganese(II) center is coordinated by the central amine nitro-gen, the nitro-gen atom of each quinoline group, and the meth-oxy-oxygen of the tetra-dentate DQMEA ligand, and two bridging-acetate oxygen atoms. The symmetric MnII centers have a distorted, octa-hedral geometry in which the quinoline nitro-gen atoms are trans to each other resulting in co-planarity of the quinoline rings. For each MnII center, a coordinated acetate oxygen participates in C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions with the two quinolyl moieties, further stabilizing the trans structure. Within the crystal, weak π-π stacking inter-actions and inter-molecular cation-anion inter-actions stabilize the crystal packing. In the asymmetric unit, compound [2]BPh4·CH3OH crystallizes as a monomer in which the manganese(II) ion is coordinated to the central nitro-gen, the nitro-gen atom of each quinoline group, and the alcohol oxygen of the tetra-dentate DQEA ligand, an oxygen atom of OAc, and the oxygen atom of a methanol ligand. The geometry of the MnII center in [2]BPh4·CH3OH is also a distorted octa-hedron, but the quinoline nitro-gen atoms are cis to each other in this structure. Hydrogen bonding between the acetate oxygen atoms and hydroxyl (O-H⋯O) and quinolyl (C-H⋯O and N-H⋯O) moieties of the DQEA ligand stabilize the complex in this cis configuration. Within the crystal, dimerization of complexes occurs by the formation of a pair of inter-molecular O3-H3⋯O2 hydrogen bonds between the coordinated hydroxyl oxygen of the DQEA ligand of one complex and an acetate oxygen of another. Additional hydrogen-bonding and inter-molecular cation-anion inter-actions contribute to the crystal packing.
