Bis phenylene flattened 13-membered tetraamide macrocyclic ligand (TAML) for square planar cobalt(III).

ABSTRACT: The preparation, characterization, and evaluation of a cobalt(III) complex with 13-membered tetraamide macrocyclic ligand (TAML) is described. This is a square-planar (X-ray) S = 1 paramagnetic (1H NMR) compound, which becomes an S = 0 diamagnetic octahedral species in excess d5-pyridine. Its one-electron oxidation at an electrode is fully reversible with the lowest E 1/2 value (0.66 V vs SCE) among all investigated CoIII TAML complexes. The oxidation results in a neutral blue species which is consistent with a CoIII/radical-cation ligand. The ease of oxidation is likely due to the two benzene rings incorporated in the ligand structure (whereas there is just one in many other CoIII TAMLs). The oxidized neutral species are unexpectedly EPR silent, presumably due to the ?-stacking aggregation. However, they display eight-line hyperfine patterns in the presence of excess of 4-tert-butylpyridine or 4-tert-butyl isonitrile. The EPR spectra are more consistent with the CoIII/radical-cation ligand formulation rather than with a CoIV complex. Attempts to synthesize a similar vanadium complex under the same conditions as for cobalt using [VVO(OCHMe2)3] were not successful. TAML-free decavanadate was isolated instead.

Project description:Among Earth-abundant catalyst systems, iron-carbene intermediates that perform C-C bond forming reactions such as cyclopropanation of olefins and C-H functionalization via carbene insertion are rare. Detailed descriptions of the possible electronic structures for iron-carbene bonds are imperative to obtain better mechanistic insights and enable rational catalyst design. Here, we report the first square-planar iron-carbene complex (MesPDPPh)Fe(CPh2), where [MesPDPPh]2- is the doubly deprotonated form of [2,6-bis(5-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-3-phenyl-1H-pyrrol-2-yl)pyridine]. The compound was prepared via reaction of the disubstituted diazoalkane N2CPh2 with (MesPDPPh)Fe(thf) and represents a rare example of a structurally characterized, paramagnetic iron-carbene complex. Temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements and applied-field Mössbauer spectroscopic studies revealed an orbitally near-degenerate S = 1 ground state with large unquenched orbital angular momentum resulting in high magnetic anisotropy. Spin-Hamiltonian analysis indicated that this S = 1 spin system has uniaxial magnetic properties arising from a ground MS = ±1 non-Kramers doublet that is well-separated from the MS = 0 sublevel due to very large axial zero-field splitting (D = -195 cm-1, E/D = 0.02 estimated from magnetic susceptibility data). This remarkable electronic structure gives rise to a very large, positive magnetic hyperfine field of more than +60 T for the 57Fe nucleus along the easy magnetization axis observed by Mössbauer spectroscopy. Computational analysis with complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) calculations provides a detailed electronic structure analysis and confirms that (MesPDPPh)Fe(CPh2) exhibits a multiconfigurational ground state. The majority contribution originates from a configuration best described as a singlet carbene coordinated to an intermediate-spin FeII center with a (dxy)2{(dxz),(dz2)}3(dyz)1(dx2-y2)0 configuration featuring near-degenerate dxz and dz2 orbitals.
