Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled "SYNTHESES, STRUCTURES AND REACTIVITY OF THE GROUP 6 AND 7 METAL COMPLEXES CONTAINING CHELATING NITROGEN DONOR LIGANDS AND METAL-LIGAND MULTIPLE BONDS" submitted by Lee Fu Wa for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in September, 1997. ____________________________________________________________________ [Cr(CRMe )Cl ] (CRMe =meso-2,3,7,11,12-pentamethyl-3,7,11,17- 3 2 3 2+ tetraazabicyclo[11.3.1]-heptadeca-1(17),13,15-triene), [Cr(CRMe )Cl(H O)], 3 2 2+ + [Cr(CRMe )Cl(CH CN)] and [Cr(CRMe )(N )(OH)] are prepared. Upon addition 3 3 3 3 2+ 2+ of PhI=O to solutions of [Cr(CRMe )Cl(CH CN)] and [Cr(CRMe )Cl(H O)] 3 3 3 2 respectively in CH CN, the UV-visible absorption spectra of the two mixtures show similar isosbestic spectral changes attributed to the formation of V 2+ [Cr (CRMe )Cl(O)] . Addition of PhP causes the immediate recovery of 3 3 2+ [Cr(CRMe )Cl(CH CN)] as the isosbestic changes are reversed. Irradiation of 3 3 [Cr(CRMe )(N )(OH)] in acetonitrile with UV-visible light gives an azide-free 3 3 product, the FAB-MS of which shows a molecular ion peak indicative of V + + ([Cr (CRMe )(N)]ClO ). The UV-visible spectra of [Cr(CRMe )Cl ], 3 4 3 2 2+ 2+ [Cr(CRMe )Cl(H O)] and [Cr(CRMe )Cl(CH CN)] measured in water are 3 2 3 3 3+ similar to that of [Cr(CRMe )(H O) ] . Results from the conductivity measurement 3 2 2 + 2+ show that in water, [Cr(CRMe )Cl ], [Cr(CRMe )Cl(H O)] and 3 2 3 2 2+ [Cr(CRMe )Cl(CH CN)] behave as 3:1 electrolytes. The species which exists in 3 3 3+ water is likely to be the di-aquo complex [Cr(CRMe )(H O) ] . 3 2 2 2+ 2+ [Cr(CRMe )Cl(H O)] and [Cr(CRMe )Cl(CH CN)] are both found to give a 3 2 3 3 reversible oxidation couple at +1.11 V vs. SCE in aqueous solutions at pH=1 which is assigned to Cr(III)/(IV). iii t + The bis(imido) complexes [(TACN)M(N Bu) Cl] (M=Cr, Mo; TACN=1,4,7-triazacyclononane) and their 1,4,7-trimethyl derivatives are prepared, the crystal structures of which reveal the trans influence of the imido group. These 0 +/0 d species display a quasi-reversible couple at potentials 0.86 - 1.20 V vs. Cp Fe in acetonitrile assignable to a imido ligand-centred oxidation. (Me TACN)Mo(CO), 1,4,7-Tri((S)-2-methylbutyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane 3 3 * * * (L ) and L Mo(CO) are synthesized. (Me TACN)Mo(CO) and L Mo(CO) show 3 3 3 3 +/0 reversible oxidation couples at -0.26 V and -0.24 V vs. Cp Fe in CH CN 2 3 I/0 respectively which are assigned to Mo . The comparable electronic effect of * Me TACN and L in this system is therefore implied. 2+ [(Me TACN) Mn (μ-O)(μ-OCOCH ) ] is prepared and found to mediate 3 2 2 3 2 aziridination of styrene, methylstyrene, cis- and trans-stilbene, 1,1-diphenylethene and norbornene by PhI=NTs in CH Cl at 25 C. The nitrene transfer to cis- and 2 2 trans-stilbene is found to be stereoselective to exclusively give the trans-aziridine product. + + [(Me TACN)(CO) M CPh] (M=Mo, W) and [(TACN)(CO) Mo CPh] 3 2 2 are prepared. [(Me TACN)(CO) M CPh] (M=Mo, W) exhibit a reversible 3 2 +/0 reduction couple at -2.15 V vs Fe Cp and an irreversible wave at 0.77 V vs +/0 Fe Cp, which are ascribed to a reduction centred at the phenyl ring and oxidation of the terminal CO respectively.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this work was the synthesis of N,N'-diphosphanyl-functionalized NHC ligands andtheir coordination chemistry. The novel stable and rigid tridentate N,N'-diphosphanyl-imidazol-2-ylidene was synthesized and experimental and computational information on its stability weregained. It served as a unique platform for the synthesis of novel mono-, di-, tri-, penta-, hexanuclear complexes with the coinage metals (Cu, Ag and Au), exhibiting rare structural features. The mono- and dinuclear complexes with one or two dangling P-donors provided rational access to heterotrinuclear complexes. All these coinage metal complexes have short metal-metalseparations, indicating the presence of d10-d10 interactions, and display excellent luminescentproperties. Partial or complete transmetallation of the homotrinuclear Cu or Ag complexes withPd(0) precursors led to hetero-trinuclear complexes with d10-d10 interactions. In addition to itsbridging behavior, this ligand also showed its chelating behavior in Pd or Cr(III) complexes. Thelatter displayed superior performance in ethylene oligomerization than the Cr(II) complexes andgave mostly oligomers.

Book Design Synthesis and Reactivity of Bimetallic Complexes of Dimethylplatinum II Containing Ditopic Ligands

Download or read book Design Synthesis and Reactivity of Bimetallic Complexes of Dimethylplatinum II Containing Ditopic Ligands written by Matthew S. McCready and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 658 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis describes a study of monometallic and bimetallic dimethylplatinum(II) complexes containing ditopic nitrogen donor ligands. This work details the design and synthesis of side-to-side and cofacial arranged ligands and their respective coordination chemistry. The study of the synthesis, characterization and reaction mechanisms of the various dimethylplatinum(II) complexes is outlined in detail with special emphasis focused on the reactivity of the complexes towards oxidative addition. The ditopic ligand 6-dppd, 1,4-di(2-pyridyl)-5,6,7,8,9,10- hexahydrocycloocta[d]pyridazine, was observed to coordinate only a single equivalent of a platinum(II) center. The inability to coordinate a second equivalent, even through an assisted bridging atom, is presumed to be due to a steric clash between the free pyridyl group and the cyclooctyl backbone. In attempts to make heterobimetallic complexes of 6-dppd, the complex [PtMe2(6-dppd)] was observed to react preferentially with mercuric halides by oxidative addition rather than coordination of the mercuric salt in the second coordination site giving complexes [PtXMe2(HgX)(6-dppd)] where X = Br, Cl, OAc. This indicates that the platinum center is actually a better nucleophile than the free pyridyl nitrogen atom. The oxidative addition of solvent dichloromethane was also observed showing the enhancedreactivity of [PtMe2(6-dppd)]. Finally, [PtMe2(6-dppd)] was treated with DCl at low temperature to give the deuteridoplatinum(IV) complex. The deuteridoplatinum(IV) complex reductively eliminates methane in solution and extensive H/D exchange occurs into the CH4 product at low temperature indicating very easy reversibility of the exchange between hydridomethylplatinum(IV) and methaneplatinum(II) complexes. The abstraction of a chloride ligand from [PtClMe(6-dppd)] led to the formation of a complex dimer structure endo, endo-[Pt2Me2(?2-?3-6-dppd)2][OTf]2. This process allowed for the formation of a bimetallic platinum(II) complex which retained the initial stereochemistry. The protonolysis of [PtMe2(6-dppd)] with one equivalent of HOTf led to the generation of methane gas and the concomitant formation of both endo, endo-[Pt2Me2(?2-?3-6-dppd)2][OTf]2 and exo, exo-[Pt2Me2(?2-?3-6-dppd)2][OTf]2. The structures of the exo isomeric clamshell dimers appeared much less sterically hindered in the solid state and were observed experimentally and computationally to be the thermodynamically preferred isomers. The mechanism, selectivity and reversibility of this isomerism process was explored in detail. The reactions of [PtMe2(6-dppd)] with alkyl bromides RCH2Br, which possess hydrogen bonding functionality, result in the formation of stable organoplatinum(IV) complexes capable of forming supramolecular structure via hydrogen bonding. Both intra and inter molecular hydrogen bonding is observed in the formation of supramolecular architectures which self-assemble in the solid state through additional?-stacking and weak secondary interactions. The new anthracene derived ditopic ligands, bpad = N1,N8-bis(pyridin-2- ylmethylene)anthracene-1,8-diamine and adpa = (N, N)-4,4'-(anthracene-1,8-diylbis(ethyne- 2,1-diyl))-bis(N-(pyridin-2-ylmethylene)aniline) were prepared, characterized and used to coordinate dimethylplatinum(II) centers giving cofacial bimetallic complexes of dimethylplatinum(II). [Pt2Me4(bpad)] was shown to degrade over time in solution through a proposed metalation event involving the anthracene backbone. The oxidative addition of a variety of substrates was performed using [Pt2Me4(adpa)] giving stable diplatinum(IV) complexes as characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy. The new xanthene derived ditopic ligands, ppxda = 2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-dimethyl-N4,N5-bis(4-(pyridin-2- ylmethyleneamino)phenyl)-xanthene-4,5-dicarboxamide and pmxda = 2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9- dimethyl-bis(pyridine-2-ylmethylene)-9H-xanthene-4,5-diamine were prepared characterized and used to ligate two equivalents of a dimethylplatinum(II) center. Diplatinum complexes of both ligands were shown to easily undergo oxidative addition to give the corresponding diplatinum(IV) complexes which adopt the anti orientation. The syn alignment of metal centers was accessible through the abstraction of halides ligands and incorporation of bridging groups as is the case for the pyrazine bridged bimetallic platinum complex [Pt2Me6(C4H4N2)(pmxda)][OSO2CF3]2.

Book Oxidation State Roulette

Book excerpt: The use of rare and expensive noble metals in the chemical industry as organometallic catalysts has grown exponentially in the past few decades due to their high activity, selectivity and their ability to catalyze a wide range of reactions. With this growth in use has also come a proportional growth in concern as these toxic metals inevitably leach into the environment and their negative effects on public health and our ecosystems are becoming better understood. First-row transition metal catalysts provide both environmental and economic benefits as alternatives to these noble metals due to their lower toxicity and cheaper costs. The two-electron chemistry that makes the noble metals so attractive however, is more challenging to accomplish with first-row transition metals. Intelligently designing the ligand scaffold which surrounds the metal can mitigate or even eliminate some of the shortfalls of these first-row metals. Some key features that should be considered when designing a ligand are: 1) a strong chelating ability so the ligand can stay attached to the metal, 2) incorporation of strong donors to favour low-spin complexes, 3) inclusion of hemilabile groups to allow for substrate activation and metal stabilization throughout various oxidation states, 4) redox activity to be able to donate or accept electrons, and 5) inclusion of Lewis base functionalities which are able to assist the substrate activation. Ligands which incorporate these features are known as bifunctional ligands as they can accomplish more than one function in the catalytic cycle. Developing first-row transition metal complexes containing these ligands may enable these species to replicate the reactivity and selectivity generally associated with the precious metals. Being able to replace the noble metals used in industry with these catalysts would have tremendous environmental and economic benefits. The objective of this thesis is to advance the field of bifunctional catalysis by examining the behaviour of two sterically svelte, tridentate SNS ligands containing hard nitrogen and soft sulphur donors when bonded to cobalt. Previous work with iron provides a template of the ligand behaviour to which cobalt can be compared, allowing us to contrast the effects exerted by the different metals. After an introduction to bifunctional catalysis in Chapter 1, Chapter 2 describes the reactivity of the amido ligand, SMeNHSMe, with precursors ranging from Co(I) to Co(III), all of which yielded the 19e- pseudooctahedral cobalt(II) bis-amido complex, Co(SMeN-SMe)2 characterized by 1H NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray crystallography and cyclic voltammetry. Although this complex has a similar structure as the Fe analogue, the cobalt bis-amido complex did not exhibit the same hemilabile behaviour that allowed for simple ligand substitution of one of the thioether groups. Instead it reacted reversibly with 2,2'-bipyridine while 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane (DMPE) and 2,6-dimethylphenyl isocyanide both triggered additional redox chemistry accompanied by the loss of protonated SMeNHSMe. In contrast, protonation gave the cobalt(II) amido-amine cation, [Co(SMeNSMe)(SMeNHSMe)](NTf2), which allowed for substitution of the protonated ligand by acetonitrile, triphenylphosphine and 2,2'-bipyridine based on 1H NMR evidence. The ability of Co(SMeNSMe)2 to act as a precatalyst for ammonia-borane dehydrogenation was also probed, revealing that it was unstable under these conditions. Addition of one equivalent of DMPE per cobalt, however, resulted in better activity with a preference for linear aminoborane oligomers using ammonia-borane and, surprisingly, to a change in selectivity to prefer cyclic products when moving to methylamine-borane. Chapter 3 delves into the chemistry of the thiolate ligand, SMeNHS, which formed a new 18e- cobalt(III) pseudooctahedral complex, Co(S-NC-)(SMe)(DEPE), from oxidative addition of the Caryl-SMe bond. Scaling up this reaction resulted instead in formation of an imine-coupled [Co(N2S2)]- anion which was characterized by 1H NMR/EPR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, cyclic voltammetry and DFT studies. The latter revealed an interesting electronic structure with two electrons delocalized in the ligand, demonstrating the non-innocent nature of the N2S2 ligand. While the analogous iron complex proved to be an effective pre-catalyst for the hydroboration of aldehydes with selectivity against ketones, this behaviour was not observed with [Co(N2S2)]- which gave a slower rate and less selectivity. The knowledge acquired from this thesis work has advanced the field of bifunctional catalysis by extending the application of these two SNS ligands from iron to cobalt, revealing unpredictable differences in reactivity between the metals. By comparing the behaviour of these ligands with iron and cobalt, we gain a better understanding of the chemistry that is accessible by these ligands and the applications for which they may be used. This increased knowledge contributes to our long-term goal of replacing expensive and toxic noble metals with more benign first-row transition metals, improving the sustainability of the chemical industry.

Book Acetate Assisted C H Activation

Download or read book Acetate Assisted C H Activation written by Youcef Boutadla and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis describes mechanistic investigations of acetate assisted C-H activation, the synthesis of cyclometallated complexes containing nitrogen donor ligands via this method and the applications of cyclometallated complexes in terms of insertion reactions. Chapter one introduces the synthesis, by C-H activation, of cyclometallated complexes containing C, N bidentate ligands of palladium, ruthenium, rhodium and iridium. The introduction also gives an overview on the mechanisms of C-H activation and the applications of C-H activation in catalysis, particularly in direct arylation. Chapter two provides an introduction to the synthesis of arene ruthenium and Cp*M (M = Ir, Rh) half sandwich cyclometallated complexes). The scope of cyclometallation via acetate- assisted C-H activation with different directing groups (pyrazole, pyridine, imines, imidazole, oxazoline and triazole) is discussed. The methodology is extended to six membered rings, non aromatic sp2 and sp3 C-H bonds. Mechanistic investigations using bidentate ligands showed that chelating ligands can prevent the C-H activation process. Chapter three describes a joint computational and experimental study of the cyclometallation reactions of dimethylbenzylamine (DMBA) with [IrC12Cp*]2 using a range of chelating bases. DFT calculations show that facile C-H bond cleavage occurs via 'ambiphilic metal ligand activation' (AMLA) and the ease of C-H activation is governed by the accessibility of the K2-xl base displacement step; thus, more weakly coordinating bases promote C-H activation. Chapter four reports the reactivity of cyclometallated half-sandwich complexes (synthesised in chapter two). Alkynes are shown to insert into the M-C bond. In some cases C-N bond formation occurs to form a heterocycle. The product formed depends on the ease of the reductive elimination step. The relevance of these results to the catalytic synthesis of hetero-and carbocycles is discussed. Throughout the thesis all new compounds are fully characterised spectroscopically and by elemental analysis and several compounds have been structurally characterised by X-ray crystallography.
