η³ -Coordination and Functionalization of the 2-Phosphaethynthiolate Anion at Lanthanum(III)*.

ABSTRACT: We present the η³ -coordination of the 2-phosphaethynthiolate anion in the complex (PN)₂ La(SCP) (2) [PN=N-(2-(diisopropylphosphanyl)-4-methylphenyl)-2,4,6-trimethylanilide)]. Structural comparison with dinuclear thiocyanate-bridged (PN)₂ La(μ-1,3-SCN)₂ La(PN)₂ (3) and azide-bridged (PN)₂ La(μ-1,3-N₃ )₂ La(PN)₂ (4) complexes indicates that the [SCP]^- coordination mode is mainly governed by electronic, rather than steric factors. Quantum mechanical investigations reveal large contributions of the antibonding π*-orbital of the [SCP]^- ligand to the LUMO of complex 2, rendering it the ideal precursor for the first functionalization of the [SCP]^- anion. Complex 2 was therefore reacted with CAACs which induced a selective rearrangement of the [SCP]^- ligand to form the first CAAC stabilized group 15-group 16 fulminate-type complexes (PN)₂ La{SPC(^R CAAC)} (5 a,b, R=Ad, Me). A detailed reaction mechanism for the SCP-to-SPC isomerization is proposed based on DFT calculations.

Selective Aromatic C-H Hydroxylation Enabled by η6-Coordination to Iridium(III).

Project description:We report an aromatic C-H hydroxylation protocol in which the arene is activated through η6-coordination to an iridium(III) complex. η6-Coordination of the arene increases its electrophilicity and allows for high positional selectivity of hydroxylation at the site of least electron density. Through investigation of intermediate η5-cyclohexadienyl adducts and arene exchange reactions, we evaluate incorporation of arene π-activation into a catalytic cycle for C-H functionalization.

Hydro-thermal synthesis and crystal structure of a new lanthanum(III) coordination polymer with fumaric acid.

Project description:The title compound, poly[di-aqua-tris-(?4-but-2-enedioato)(?2-but-2-enedioic acid)dilanthanum(III)], [La2(C4H2O4)3(C4H4O4)(H2O)2] n , was synthesized by the reaction of lanthanum chloride penta-hydrate with fumaric acid under hydro-thermal conditions. The asymmetric unit comprises an La(III) cation, one and a half fumarate dianions (L (2-)), one a half-mol-ecule of fumaric acid (H2 L) and one coordinated water mol-ecule. Each La(III) cation has the same nine-coordinate environment and is surrounded by eight O atoms from seven distinct fumarate moieties, including one proton-ated fumarate unit and one water mol-ecule in a distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic environment. The LaO8(H2O) polyhedra centres are edge-shared through three carboxyl-ate bridges of the fumarate ligand, forming chains in three dimensions to construct the MOF. The crystal structure is stabilized by O-H?O hydrogen-bond inter-actions between the coordin-ated water mol-ecule and the carboxyl-ate O atoms, and also between oxygen atoms of fumaric acid.

η 2 Coordination of Electron-Deficient Arenes with Group 6 Dearomatization Agents.

Project description:The exceptionally π-basic metal fragments {MoTp-(NO)(DMAP)} and {WTp(NO)(PMe3)} (Tp = tris(pyrazolyl)borate; DMAP = 4-(N,N-dimethylamino)pyridine) form thermally stable η 2-coordinated complexes with a variety of electron-deficient arenes. The tolerance of substituted arenes with fluorine-containing electron withdrawing groups (EWG; -F, -CF3, -SF5) is examined for both the molybdenum and tungsten systems. When the EWG contains a π bond (nitriles, aldehydes, ketones, ester), η 2 coordination occurs predominantly on the nonaromatic functional group. However, complexation of the tungsten complex with trimethyl orthobenzoate (PhC(OMe)3) followed by hydrolysis allows access to an η 2-coordinated arene with an ester substituent. In general, the tungsten system tolerates sulfur-based withdrawing groups well (e.g., PhSO2Ph, MeSO2Ph), and the integration of multiple electron-withdrawing groups on a benzene ring further enhances the π-back-bonding interaction between the metal and aromatic ligand. While the molybdenum system did not form stable η 2-arene complexes with the sulfones or ortho esters, it was capable of forming rare examples of stable η 2-coordinated arene complexes with a range of fluorinated benzenes (e.g., fluorobenzene, difluorobenzenes). In contrast to what has been observed for the tungsten system, these complexes formed without interference of C-H or C-F insertion.

A Neutral "Aluminocene" Sandwich Complex: η1 - versus η5 -Coordination Modes of a Pentaarylborole with ECp* (E=Al, Ga; Cp*=C5 Me5 ).

Project description:The pentaaryl borole (Ph*C)4 BXylF [Ph*=3,5-tBu2 (C6 H3 ); XylF =3,5-(CF3 )2 (C6 H3 )] reacts with low-valent Group 13 precursors AlCp* and GaCp* by two divergent routes. In the case of [AlCp*]4 , the borole reacts as an oxidising agent and accepts two electrons. Structural, spectroscopic, and computational analysis of the resulting unprecedented neutral η5 -Cp*,η5 -[(Ph*C)4 BXylF ] complex of AlIII revealed a strong, ionic bonding interaction. The formation of the heteroleptic borole-cyclopentadienyl "aluminocene" leads to significant changes in the 13 C NMR chemical shifts within the borole unit. In the case of the less-reductive GaCp*, borole (Ph*C)4 BXylF reacts as a Lewis acid to form a dynamic adduct with a dative 2-center-2-electron Ga-B bond. The Lewis adduct was also studied structurally, spectroscopically, and computationally.

Formation of a diiron-(μ-η1:η1-CN) complex from acetonitrile solution.

Project description:The activation of C-C bonds by transition-metal complexes is of continuing interest and acetonitrile (MeCN) has attracted attention as a cyanide source with comparatively low toxicity for organic cyanation reactions. A diiron end-on μ-η1:η1-CN-bridged complex was obtained from a crystallization experiment of an open-chain iron-NHC complex, namely, μ-cyanido-κ2C:N-bis{[(acetonitrile-κN)[3,3'-bis(pyridin-2-yl)-1,1'-(methylidene)bis(benzimidazol-2-ylidene)]iron(II)} tris(hexafluorophosphate), [Fe2(CN)(C2H3N)2(C25H18N6)2](PF6)3. The cyanide appears to originate from the MeCN solvent by C-C bond cleavage or through carbon-hydrogen oxidation.

Reduction of π-Expanded Cyclooctatetraene with Lithium: Stabilization of the Tetra-Anion through Internal Li+ Coordination.

Project description:The chemical reduction of a π-expanded polycyclic framework comprising a cyclooctatetraene moiety, octaphenyltetrabenzocyclooctatetraene, with lithium metal readily affords the corresponding tetra-anion instead of the expected aromatic dianion. As revealed by X-ray crystallography, the highly contorted tetra-anion is stabilized by coordination of two internally bound Li+ , while two external cations remain solvent separated. The variable-temperature 7 Li NMR spectra in THF confirm the presence of three types of Li+ ions and clearly differentiate internal binding, consistent with the crystal structure. Density-functional theory calculations suggest that the formation of the highly charged tetra-reduced carbanion is stabilized through Li+ coordination under the applied experimental conditions.

RhI/RhIII catalyst-controlled divergent aryl/heteroaryl C-H bond functionalization of picolinamides with alkynes.

Project description:The ability to establish switchable site-selectivity through catalyst control in the direct functionalization of molecules that contain distinct C-H bonds remains a demanding challenge that would enable the construction of diverse scaffolds from the same starting materials. Herein we describe the realization of this goal, namely a divergent heteroaryl/aryl C-H functionalization of aromatic picolinamide derivatives, targeting two distinct C-H sites, either at the pyridine ring or at the arene unit, to afford isoquinoline or ortho-olefinated benzylamine (or phenethylamine) derivatives. This complementary reactivity has been achieved on the basis of a RhIII/RhI switch in the catalyst, resulting in different mechanistic outcomes. Notably, a series of experimental and DFT mechanistic studies revealed important insights about the mechanism of the reaction and reasons behind the divergent regiochemical outcome.

Evidence for enormous iodide anion migration in lanthanum oxyiodide–based solid

Project description:Description Iodide ion conduction was demonstrated and quantified. The I− ion conduction was demonstrated and quantified in the La0.70Sr0.25Zn0.05OI0.70 solid. The I− ion is considered to be an inferior conductor because of its large ionic size compared to the previously reported conducting ion species. Using modified Tubandt electrolysis, a weight increase at the anodic pellet and a corresponding weight decrease at the cathodic pellet were observed. The weight changes were in good agreement with the theoretical values estimated by considering pure I− ion migration. Furthermore, the iodine element appeared at the anode, and the iodine concentration at the cathode decreased after electrolysis, indicating that the migrating species was only I−. This is the first study to elucidate the conduction of iodide ions in solids.

A Cyclometalated NHC Iridium Complex Bearing a Cationic (η5 -Cyclopentadienyl)(η6 -phenyl)iron Backbone*.

Project description:Nucleophilic substitution of [(η5 -cyclopentadienyl)(η6 -chlorobenzene)iron(II)] hexafluorophosphate with sodium imidazolate resulted in the formation of [(η5 -cyclopentadienyl)(η6 -phenyl)iron(II)]imidazole hexafluorophosphate. The corresponding dicationic imidazolium salt, which was obtained by treating this imidazole precursor with methyl iodide, underwent cyclometallation with bis[dichlorido(η5 -1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl]iridium(III) in the presence of triethyl amine. The resulting bimetallic iridium(III) complex is the first example of an NHC complex bearing a cationic and cyclometallated [(η5 -cyclopentadienyl)(η6 -phenyl)iron(II)]+ substituent. As its iron(II) precursors, the bimetallic iridium(III) complex was fully characterized by means of spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction. In addition, it was investigated in a catalytic study, wherein it showed high activity in transfer hydrogenation compared to its neutral analogue having a simple phenyl instead of a cationic [(η5 -cyclopentadienyl)(η6 -phenyl)iron(II)]+ unit at the NHC ligand.

Mechanistic Insights into the Dual Directing Group-Mediated C-H Functionalization/Annulation via a Hydroxyl Group-Assisted MIII-MV-MIII Pathway.

Project description:The experimental investigations on the catalyst [Cp*Rh(OAc)2 and Cp*Ir (OAc)2)]-controlled [3 + 2] and [4 + 2] annulations of oximes with propargyl alcohols have been finished in our previous work and a supposed dual directing group-mediated reaction pathway has been deduced for the chemodivergent product synthesis. However, the detailed interaction modes of the dual directing groups binding with the corresponding metal center to achieve the above observed chemoselectivity remain unclear and even contradict. For instance, the calculational traditional dual direct coupling transition states suggested that both Cp*Rh(OAc)2- and Cp*Ir(OAc)2-catalyzed reactions would generate five-membered indenamines as the dominant products via [3 + 2] annulation. To address this concern, herein, systematic DFT calculations combined with proof-of-concept experiments have been carried out. Accordingly, a novel and more favorable MIII-MV-MIII reaction mechanism, which involves an unprecedented HOAc together with a hydroxyl group-assisted reaction pathway in which the hydroxyl group acts as double effectors for the formation of M-O coordination and [MeO···H···O(CCH3)O···H···O] bonding interactions, was deduced. Taken together, the present results would provide a rational basis for future development of the dual directing group-mediated C-H activation reactions.
