Spin States, Bonding and Magnetism in Mixed-Valence Iron(0)-Iron(II) Complexes.

ABSTRACT: "Xenophilic" complexes offer metal-metal bonds between disparate metal sites, but the nature of the metal-metal bonding is often unclear. Here, we describe two novel complexes with unsupported Fe-Fe bonds, L^x Fe-Fp (L^X = β-aldiminate or β-diketiminate; Fp = Fe(CO)₂ Cp), that offer insight into Fe-Fe bonding. Mössbauer, magnetism, and DFT analysis indicate that the most accurate electronic structure description is LFe^II ←Fe⁰ (CO)₂ Cp, in which the Fe(CO)₂ Cp is low-spin iron(0) and acts as an X-type ligand toward the high-spin iron(II) of the LFe fragment. This largely electrostatic interaction has a bond order of only 0.5. The three-coordinate high-spin iron(II) site has large zero-field splitting, and in addition its Mössbauer parameters can be used to rank the Fp^- "metalloligand" as a donor; it is nearly as strong a donor as phosphides and alkyls.

Valence Delocalization and Metal-Metal Bonding in Carbon-Bridged Mixed-Valence Iron Complexes.

Project description:The carbide ligand in the iron-molybdenum cofactor (FeMoco) in nitrogenase bridges iron atoms in different oxidation states, yet it is difficult to discern its ability to mediate magnetic exchange interactions due to the structural complexity of the cofactor. Here, we describe two mixed-valent diiron complexes with C-based ketenylidene bridging ligands, and compare the carbon bridges with the more familiar sulfur bridges. The ground state of the [Fe2 (μ-CCO)2 ]+ complex with two carbon bridges (4) is S= 1/2${{ 1/2 }}$ , and it is valence delocalized on the Mössbauer timescale with a small thermal barrier for electron hopping that stems from the low Fe-C force constant. In contrast, one-electron reduction of the [Fe2 (μ-CCO)] complex with one carbon bridge (2) affords a mixed-valence species with a high-spin ground state (S= 7/2${ 7/2 }$ ), and the Fe-Fe distance contracts by 1 Å. Spectroscopic, magnetic, and computational studies of the latter reveal an Fe-Fe bonding interaction that leads to complete valence delocalization. Analysis of near-IR intervalence charge transfer transitions in 5 indicates a very large double exchange constant (B) in the range of 780-965 cm-1 . These results show that carbon bridges are extremely effective at stabilizing valence delocalized ground states in mixed-valent iron dimers.

Valence and spin states of iron are invisible in Earth's lower mantle.

Project description:Heterogeneity in Earth's mantle is a record of chemical and dynamic processes over Earth's history. The geophysical signatures of heterogeneity can only be interpreted with quantitative constraints on effects of major elements such as iron on physical properties including density, compressibility, and electrical conductivity. However, deconvolution of the effects of multiple valence and spin states of iron in bridgmanite (Bdg), the most abundant mineral in the lower mantle, has been challenging. Here we show through a study of a ferric-iron-only (Mg0.46Fe3+0.53)(Si0.49Fe3+0.51)O3 Bdg that Fe3+ in the octahedral site undergoes a spin transition between 43 and 53 GPa at 300 K. The resolved effects of the spin transition on density, bulk sound velocity, and electrical conductivity are smaller than previous estimations, consistent with the smooth depth profiles from geophysical observations. For likely mantle compositions, the valence state of iron has minor effects on density and sound velocities relative to major cation composition.

Hydrogen-bonding interactions trigger a spin-flip in iron(III) porphyrin complexes.

Project description:A key step in cytochrome P450 catalysis includes the spin-state crossing from low spin to high spin upon substrate binding and subsequent reduction of the heme. Clearly, a weak perturbation in P450 enzymes triggers a spin-state crossing. However, the origin of the process whereby enzymes reorganize their active site through external perturbations, such as hydrogen bonding, is still poorly understood. We have thus studied the impact of hydrogen-bonding interactions on the electronic structure of a five-coordinate iron(III) octaethyltetraarylporphyrin chloride. The spin state of the metal was found to switch reversibly between high (S=5/2) and intermediate spin (S=3/2) with hydrogen bonding. Our study highlights the possible effects and importance of hydrogen-bonding interactions in heme proteins. This is the first example of a synthetic iron(III) complex that can reversibly change its spin state between a high and an intermediate state through weak external perturbations.

Solvent-Induced Polymorphism of Iron(II) Spin Crossover Complexes.

Project description:Two new mononuclear iron(II) compounds (1) and (2) of the general formula [Fe(L)₂](BF₄)₂·nCH₃CN (L = 4-(2-bromoethyn-1-yl)-2,6-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine, n = 1 for (1) and n = 2 for compound (2)), were synthesized. The room temperature crystallization afforded concomitant formation of two different solvent analogues: compound (1) exhibiting triclinic P-1 and compound (2) monoclinic C2/c symmetry. Single-crystal X-ray studies confirmed the presence of the LS (low-spin) state for both compounds at 180 K and of the HS (high-spin) state for compound (2) at 293 K, in full agreement with the magnetic investigations for both solvent polymorphs. Compound (1) exhibits spin transition above 293 K followed by subsequent solvent liberation, while the spin transition of (2) takes already place at 237 K. After complete solvent removal from the crystal lattice, compound (1d) (the desolvated polymorph derived from (1)) exhibits spin transition centered at 342 K accompanied by a thermal hysteresis loop, while the analogous compound (2d) (the desolvated derivate of compound (2)) remains blocked in the HS state over all the investigated temperature range.

Correlating Valence and 2p3d RIXS Spectroscopies: A Ligand-Field Study of Spin-Crossover Iron(II).

Project description:The molecular spin-crossover phenomenon between high-spin (HS) and low-spin (LS) states is a promising route to next-generation information storage, sensing applications, and molecular spintronics. Spin-crossover complexes also provide a unique opportunity to study the ligand field (LF) properties of a system in both HS and LS states while maintaining the same ligand environment. Presently, we employ complementing valence and core-level spectroscopic methods to probe the electronic excited-state manifolds of the spin-crossover complex [FeII(H2B(pz)2)2phen]0. Light-induced excited spin-state trapping (LIESST) at liquid He temperatures is exploited to characterize magnetic and spectroscopic properties of the photoinduced HS state using SQUID magnetometry and magnetic circular dichroism spectroscopy. In parallel, Fe 2p3d RIXS spectroscopy is employed to examine the ΔS = 0, 1 excited LF states. These experimental studies are combined with state-of-the-art CASSCF/NEVPT2 and CASCI/NEVPT2 calculations characterizing the ground and LF excited states. Analysis of the acquired LF information further supports the notion that the spin-crossover of [FeII(H2B(pz)2)2phen]0 is asymmetric, evidenced by a decrease in eπ in the LS state. The results demonstrate the power of cross-correlating spectroscopic techniques with high and low LF information content to make accurate excited-state assignments, as well as the current capabilities of ab initio theory in interpreting these electronic properties.

Chiral Resolution of Spin-Crossover Active Iron(II) [2x2] Grid Complexes.

Project description:Chiral magnetic materials are proposed for applications in second-order non-linear optics, magneto-chiral dichroism, among others. Recently, we have reported a set of tetra-nuclear Fe(II) grid complex conformers with general formula C/S-[Fe4 L4 ]8+ (L: 2,6-bis(6-(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridin-2-yl)-1,5-dihydrobenzo[1,2-d : 4,5-d']diimidazole). In the grid complexes, isomerism emerges from tautomerism and conformational isomerism of the ligand L, and the S-type grid complex is chiral, which originates from different non-centrosymmetric spatial organization of the trans type ligand around the Fe(II) center. However, the selective preparation of an enantiomerically pure grid complex in a controlled manner is difficult due to spontaneous self-assembly. To achieve the pre-synthesis programmable resolution of Fe(II) grid complexes, we designed and synthesized two novel intrinsically chiral ligands by appending chiral moieties to the parent ligand. The complexation of these chiral ligands with Fe(II) salt resulted in the formation of enantiomerically pure Fe(II) grid complexes, as unambiguously elucidated by CD and XRD studies. The enantiomeric complexes exhibited similar gradual and half-complete thermal and photo-induced SCO characteristics. The good agreement between the experimentally obtained and calculated CD spectra further supports the enantiomeric purity of the complexes and even the magnetic studies. The chiral resolution of Fe(II)- [2×2] grid complexes reported in this study, for the first time, might enable the fabrication of magneto-chiral molecular devices.

Iron(II) Spin Crossover Complexes with 4,4'-Dipyridylethyne-Crystal Structures and Spin Crossover with Hysteresis.

Project description:Three new iron(II) 1D coordination polymers with cooperative spin crossover behavior showing thermal hysteresis loops were synthesized using N2O2 Schiff base-like equatorial ligands and 4,4'-dipyridylethyne as a bridging, rigid axial linker. One of those iron(II) 1D coordination polymers showed a 73 K wide hysteresis below room temperature, which, upon solvent loss, decreased to a still remarkable 30 K wide hysteresis. Single crystal X-ray structures of two iron(II) coordination polymers and T-dependent powder XRD patterns are discussed to obtain insight into the structure property relationship of those materials.

Experimental Spin State Determination of Iron(II) Complexes by Hirshfeld Atom Refinement.

Project description:In this study, we present the first experimental determination of the spin state of transition metal complexes by using Hirshfeld Atom Refinement. For the demonstration, the two iron(II) complexes, (NH4)2Fe(SO4)2 ⋅ 6 H2O and lFe(pic)3jCl2 ⋅ EtOH were investigated. The method involves the refinement using wavefunctions of different spin multiplicity and comparison against experimental diffraction data by means of refinement indicators and residual electron density. Our results show a clear distinction between high-spin and low-spin configurations, even for compounds with spin-crossover behavior. The presented work demonstrates the potential of Hirshfeld Atom Refinement for the experimental determination of spin states in transition metal complexes.

Geometry-dependent valence tautomerism, magnetism, and electrical conductivity in 1D iron-tetraoxolene chains.

Project description:Redox-active tetraoxolene ligands such as 1,4-dihydroxybenzoquinone provide access to a diversity of metal-organic architectures, many of which display interesting magnetic behavior and high electrical conductivity. Here, we take a closer look at how structure dictates physical properties in a series of 1D iron-tetraoxolene chains. Using a diphenyl-derivatized tetraoxolene ligand (H2Ph2dhbq), we show that the steric profile of the coordinating solvent controls whether linear or helical chains are exclusively formed. Despite similar ligand environments, only the helical chain displays temperature-dependent valence tautomerism, switching from (FeII)(Ph2dhbq2-) to (FeIII)(Ph2dhbq3˙-) at temperatures below 203 K. The stabilization of ligand radicals leads to exceptionally strong magnetic exchange coupling (J = -230 ± 4 cm-1). Meanwhile, the linear chains are more amenable to oxidative doping, leading to Robin-Day class II/III mixed-valency and an increase in electrical conductivity by nearly three orders of magnitude. While previous studies have focused on the effects of changing metal and ligand identity, this work highlights how altering the metal-ligand connectivity can be a similarly powerful tool for tuning materials properties.
