Ligand Substitution and Electronic Structure Studies of Bis(phosphine)Cobalt Cyclooctadiene Precatalysts for Alkene Hydrogenation.

ABSTRACT: Diene self-exchange reactions of the 17-electron, formally cobalt(0) cyclooctadienyl precatalyst, (R,R)-(^iPrDuPhos)Co(COD) (P ₂ CoCOD, (R,R)-^iPrDuPhos = 1,2-bis((2R,5R)-2,5-diisopropylphospholano)benzene, COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) were studied using natural abundance and deuterated 1,5-cyclooctadiene. Exchange of free and coordinated diene was observed at ambient temperature in benzene-d ₆ solution and kinetic studies support a dissociative process. Both neutral P ₂ CoCOD and the 16-electron, cationic cobalt(I) complex, [(R,R)-(^iPrDuPhos)Co(COD)][BAr^F ₄] (BAr^F ₄ = B[(3,5-(CF₃)₂)C₆H₃]₄) underwent instantaneous displacement of the 1,5-cyclooctadiene ligand by carbon monoxide and generated the corresponding carbonyl derivatives. The solid-state parameters, DFT-computed Mulliken spin density and analysis of molecular orbitals suggest an alternative description of P ₂ CoCOD as low-spin cobalt(II) with the 1,5-cyclooctadiene acting as a LX₂-type ligand. This view of the electronic structure provides insight into the nature of the ligand substitution processes and the remarkable stability of the neutral cobalt complexes toward protic solvents observed during catalytic alkene hydrogenation.

Cobalt-catalyzed alkene hydrogenation by reductive turnover.

Project description:Earth abundant metal catalysts hold advantages in cost, environmental burden and chemoselectivity over precious metal catalysts. Differences in reactivity for a given metal center result from ligand field strength, which can promote reaction through either open- or closed-shell carbon intermediates. Herein we report a simple protocol for cobalt-catalyzed alkene reduction. Instead of using an oxidative turnover mechanism that requires stoichiometric hydride, we find a reductive turnover mechanism that requires stoichiometric proton. The reaction mechanism appears to involve coordination and hydrocobaltation of terminal alkenes.

Tuning the electronic properties of hexanuclear cobalt sulfide superatoms <i>via</i> ligand substitution.

Project description:Molecular clusters are attractive superatomic building blocks for creating materials with tailored properties due to their unique combination of atomic precision, tunability and functionality. The ligands passivating these superatomic clusters offer an exciting opportunity to control their electronic properties while preserving their closed shells and electron counts, which is not achievable in conventional atoms. Here we demonstrate this concept by measuring the anion photoelectron spectra of a series of hexanuclear cobalt sulfide superatomic clusters with different ratios of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing ligands, Co6S8(PEt3)6-x (CO) x (x = 0-3). We find that Co6S8(PEt3)6 has a low electron affinity (EA) of 1.1 eV, and that the successive replacement of PEt3 ligands with CO gradually shifts its electronic spectrum to lower energy and increases its EA to 1.8 eV. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the increase of EA results from a monotonic lowering of the cluster highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO). Our work provides unique insights into the electronic structure and tunability of superatomic building blocks.

[2,6-Bis(diphenyl-phosphino-oxy)phen-yl]bis-(trimethyl-phosphine)cobalt(I).

Project description:The title compound, [Co(C(30)H(23)O(2)P(2))(C(3)H(9)P)(2)], was synthesized by the addition of a Co(PMe(3))(4) solution to (PPh(2)O)(2)C(6)H(4). The Co(I) atom displays a trigonal-bipyramidal geometry with the two P atoms of the 'PCP' pincer ligand and the P atom of one of the trimethyl phosphine ligands forming the basal plane, whereas the metalated C atom and the P atom of the second phospine ligand occupy the apical sites. The Co-C distance is 1.961?(2)?Å and the C-Co-P angle is 171.96?(6)°.

Catalytic hydrogenation activity and electronic structure determination of bis(arylimidazol-2-ylidene)pyridine cobalt alkyl and hydride complexes.

Project description:The bis(arylimidazol-2-ylidene)pyridine cobalt methyl complex, ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3, was evaluated for the catalytic hydrogenation of alkenes. At 22 °C and 4 atm of H2 pressure, ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3 is an effective precatalyst for the hydrogenation of sterically hindered, unactivated alkenes such as trans-methylstilbene, 1-methyl-1-cyclohexene, and 2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, representing one of the most active cobalt hydrogenation catalysts reported to date. Preparation of the cobalt hydride complex, ((iPr)CNC)CoH, was accomplished by hydrogenation of ((iPr)CNC)CoCH3. Over the course of 3 h at 22 °C, migration of the metal hydride to the 4-position of the pyridine ring yielded (4-H2-(iPr)CNC)CoN2. Similar alkyl migration was observed upon treatment of ((iPr)CNC)CoH with 1,1-diphenylethylene. This reactivity raised the question as to whether this class of chelate is redox-active, engaging in radical chemistry with the cobalt center. A combination of structural, spectroscopic, and computational studies was conducted and provided definitive evidence for bis(arylimidazol-2-ylidene)pyridine radicals in reduced cobalt chemistry. Spin density calculations established that the radicals were localized on the pyridine ring, accounting for the observed reactivity, and suggest that a wide family of pyridine-based pincers may also be redox-active.

Cobalt-catalysed alkene hydrogenation: a metallacycle can explain the hydroxyl activating effect and the diastereoselectivity.

Project description:Bis(phosphine)cobalt dialkyl complexes have been reported to be highly active in the hydrogenation of tri-substituted alkenes bearing hydroxyl substituents. Alkene substrates containing ether, ester, or ketone substituents show minimal reactivity, indicating an activating effect of the hydroxyl group. The mechanistic details of bis(phosphine)cobalt-catalysed hydrogenation were recently evaluated computationally (X. Ma, M. Lei, J. Org. Chem. 2017, 82, 2703-2712) and a Co(0)-Co(ii) redox mechanism was proposed. However, the activating effect of the hydroxyl substituent and the accompanying high diastereoselectivity were not studied. Here we report a computational study rationalizing the role of the hydroxyl group through a key metallacycle species. The metallacycle is part of a non-redox catalytic pathway proceeding through Co(ii) intermediates throughout. The preference for alcohol over ether substrates and the high diastereoselectivity of terpinen-4-ol hydrogenation are correctly predicted in computations adopting the new pathway, whereas the alternative redox mechanism predicts ethers rather than alcohols to be more reactive substrates. Additional experimental evidence supports the role of the hydroxyl group in the metallacycle mechanism. Our work highlights the importance of employing known substrate preferences and stereoselectivities to test the validity of computationally proposed reaction pathways.

Alkene Metalates as Hydrogenation Catalysts.

Project description:First-row transition-metal complexes hold great potential as catalysts for hydrogenations and related reductive reactions. Homo- and heteroleptic arene/alkene metalates(1-) (M=Co, Fe) are a structurally distinct catalyst class with good activities in hydrogenations of alkenes and alkynes. The first syntheses of the heteroleptic cobaltates [K([18]crown-6)][Co(η4 -cod)(η2 -styrene)2 ] (5) and [K([18]crown-6)][Co(η4 -dct)(η4 -cod)] (6), and the homoleptic complex [K(thf)2 ][Co(η4 -dct)2 ] (7; dct=dibenzo[a,e]cyclooctatetraene, cod=1,5-cyclooctadiene), are reported. For comparison, two cyclopentadienylferrates(1-) were synthesized according to literature procedures. The isolated and fully characterized monoanionic complexes were competent precatalysts in alkene hydrogenations under mild conditions (2 bar H2 , r.t., THF). Mechanistic studies by NMR spectroscopy, ESI mass spectrometry, and poisoning experiments documented the operation of a homogeneous mechanism, which was initiated by facile redox-neutral π-ligand exchange with the substrates followed by H2 activation. The substrate scope of the investigated precatalysts was also extended to polar substrates (ketones and imines).

Design of Ru(II)-NHC-Diamine Precatalysts Directed by Ligand Cooperation: Applications and Mechanistic Investigations for Asymmetric Hydrogenation.

Project description:A modular synthesis of Ru(II)-NHC-diamine complexes from readily available chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) and chiral diamines is disclosed for the first time. The well-defined Ru(II)-NHC-diamine complexes show unique structure and coordination chemistry including an unusual tridentate coordination effect of 1,2-diphenylethylenediamine. The isolated air- and moisture-stable Ru(II)-NHC-diamine complexes act as versatile precatalysts for the asymmetric hydrogenation of isocoumarines, benzothiophene 1,1-dioxides, and ketones. Moreover, on the basis of the identification of reaction intermediates by stoichiometric reactions and NMR experiments, together with the DFT calculations, a possible catalytic cycle was proposed.

Cobalt-Catalyzed E-Selective Isomerization of Alkenes with a Phosphine-Amido-Oxazoline Ligand.

Project description:An efficient method to access (E)-trisubstituted alkenes is reported via cobalt-catalyzed isomerization of 1,1-disubstituted alkenes using a phosphine-amido-oxazoline ligand. The reaction could also convert mono- and 1,2-disubstituted alkenes to (E)-internal alkenes with benzylic selectivity. This protocol is atom-economy and operationally simple and uses readily available starting materials with good functional tolerance. This catalytic system could be scaled up to gram scale smoothly with a catalyst loading of 0.1 mol %.

[5,10,15,20-Tetra-kis(4-chloro-phen-yl)porphyrinato]bis-(tributyl-phosphine)cobalt(III) perchlorate.

Project description:In the mol-ecule of the title compound, [Co(C(44)H(24)Cl(4)N(4)){(C(4)H(9))(3)P}(2)]ClO(4), the Co(III) centre has a slightly distorted octa-hedral geometry and is coordinated by four N atoms of the tetra-pyrrolic ring in the equatorial positions and two phosphine ligands in the axial positions. The dihedral angles between meso-substituted chloro-phenyl rings and the basic tetra-pyrrolic ring are 82.66 (9), 82.16 (7), 83.97 (11) and 76.87 (8)°. In one of the phosphine ligands, the two terminal methyl groups are disordered over two positions with refined site-occupancy ratios of 0.70 (7):0.30 (7) and 0.66 (2):0.34 (2). In the crystal structure, mol-ecules are linked together along the a axis by inter-molecular C-H⋯Cl inter-actions. The crystal structure is further stabilized by intra-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯N inter-actions and inter-molecular C-H⋯O and C-H⋯π inter-actions.
