Book Synthesis  Characterization and Reactivity Studies of Low coordinate Late Transition Metal Complexes and the Preparation and Characterization of a Low coordinate Samarium Complex

Download or read book Synthesis Characterization and Reactivity Studies of Low coordinate Late Transition Metal Complexes and the Preparation and Characterization of a Low coordinate Samarium Complex written by Pei Zhao and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dissertation focuses on the synthesis, characterization and reactivity study of terphenyl ligand stabilized bis([mu]-oxo) dimeric iron and cobalt complexes. The synthesis and characterization of low-coordinate cobalt alkyl and iron alkyl complexes are also described. In addition, it describes the preparation of the first monomeric homoleptic solvent-free bis(aryloxide) lanthanide complex. The solid state structures of new compounds were determined by single crystal X-ray crystallography. Magnetic properties of paramagnetic compounds were measured by superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) or Evans' methods for solid state or solution phase, respectively. The new compounds were also characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy. Furthermore, infrared spectroscopy, Mössbauer spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry and elemental analysis were employed to characterize some of the compounds when applicable. In some cases, DFT calculations were applied to elucidate the bonding and energy levels of molecular orbitals in the complexes. In Chapter 2, The bis([mu]-oxo) dimeric complexes {Ar[superscript iPr8]OM([mu]-O)}2 (Ar [superscript iPr8] = -C6H-2,6-(C6H2-2,4,6-[superscript i]Pr3)2-3,5-[superscript i]Pr2; M = Fe or Co) were prepared by oxidation of the metal (I) half-sandwich complexes {Ar[superscript iPr8]M([eta]6-arene)} (arene = benzene or toluene; M = Fe or Co). The iron species {Ar[superscript iPr8]OFe([mu]-O)}2 was prepared by reacting {Ar[superscript iPr8]Fe([eta]6-benzene)} with N2O or O2 and the cobalt species {Ar[superscript iPr8]OCo([mu]-O)}2 was prepared by reacting {Ar[superscript iPr8]Co([eta]6-toluene)} with O2. Both {Ar[superscript iPr8]OFe([mu]-O)}2 and {Ar[superscript iPr8]OCo([mu]-O)}2 were characterized by X-ray crystallography, UV-vis spectroscopy, magnetic measurements and, in the case of the iron species, by Mössbauer spectroscopy. The solid-state structures of both compounds reveal unique M2([mu]-O)2 (M = Fe or Co) cores with formally three-coordinate metal ions. The Fe···Fe separation in {Ar[superscript iPr8]OFe([mu]-O)}2 bears a resemblance to that in the Fe2([mu]-O)2 diamond core proposed for the methane monooxygenase intermediate Q. The structural differences between {Ar[superscript iPr8]OFe([mu]-O)}2 and {Ar[superscript iPr8]OCo([mu]-O)}2 are reflected in rather differing magnetic behavior. Compound {Ar[superscript iPr8]OCo([mu]-O)}2 is thermally unstable and its decomposition at room temperature resulted in the oxidation of the Ar[superscript iPr8] ligand via oxygen insertion and addition to the central aryl ring of the terphenyl ligand to produce the 5,5'-peroxy-bis[4,6-[superscript i]Pr2-3,7-bis(2,4,6-iPr3-phenyl)oxepin-2(5H)-one]. The structure of the oxidized terphenyl species is closely related to that of a key intermediate proposed for the oxidation of benzene. In Chapter 3, the homoleptic, cobalt(I) alkyl [Co{C(SiMe2Ph)3}]2 was prepared by reacting CoCl2 with [Li{C(SiMe2Ph)3}(THF)] in a 1:2 ratio though the initial intent was to synthesize a dialkyl cobalt (II) complex. Attempts to synthesize the corresponding iron(I) species led to the iron(II) salt [Li(THF)4][Fe2([mu]-Cl)3{C(SiMe2Ph)3}2]. Both complexes were characterized by X-ray crystallography, UV-vis spectroscopy, and magnetic measurements. The structure of [Co{C(SiMe2Ph)3}]2 consists of dimeric units in which each cobalt(I) ion is [sigma]-bonded to the central carbon of the alkyl group -C(SiMe2Ph)3 and [pi]-bonded to one of the phenyl rings of the -C(SiMe2Ph)3 ligand attached to the other cobalt(I) ion in the dimer. The structure of [Li(THF)4][Fe2([mu]-Cl)3{C(SiMe2Ph)3}2] features three chlorides bridging two iron(II) ions. Each iron (II) ion is also [sigma]-bonded to the central carbon of a terminal -C(SiMe2Ph)3 anionic ligand. The magnetic properties of [Co{C(SiMe2Ph)3}]2 reveal the presence of two independent cobalt (I) ions with S = 1 and a significant zero-field splitting of D = 38.0(2) cm−1. The magnetic properties of [Li(THF)4][Fe2([mu]-Cl)3{C(SiMe2Ph)3}2] reveal extensive antiferromagnetic exchange coupling with J = -149(4) cm−1 and a large second-order Zeeman contribution to its molar magnetic susceptibility. Formation of the alkyl [Co{C(SiMe2Ph)3}]2 and the halide complex [Li(THF)4][Fe2([mu]-Cl)3{C(SiMe2Ph)3}2] under similar conditions is probably due to the fact that Co(II) is more readily reduced than Fe(II). Some other synthetic routes were also attempted to synthesize a dialkyl cobalt (II) complex and they are described in this chapter. Neither [Co(NPh2)2]2 nor cobaltocene reacts with [Li{C(SiMe2Ph)3}(THF)] to afford a dialkyl cobalt (II) complex. Metathesis reactions of cobalt halides with lithium salts of alkyl ligand HCPh2R (R = -Ph or -SiMe3) resulted in the reduction of cobalt (II) to cobalt metal and the coupling of ligands, which indicate that homolytic cleavage of the cobalt-carbon bond was probably involved in the metathesis reactions. Furthermore, in chapter 4, reaction of Sm[N(SiMe3)2]2(THF)2 with two equivalents of bulky aryloxide ligand HOAr[superscript iPr6] (Ar[superscript iPr6] = -C6H3-2,6-(C6H2-2,4,6-[superscript i]Pr3)2) afforded the first monomeric homoleptic solvent-free bis(aryloxide) lanthanide complex Sm(OAr[superscript iPr6])2. The complex was characterized by crystallography, UV-Visible spectrum, IR and magnetically by the Evans' method. The O-Sm-O angle is bent at 111.08(9)̊. The samarium ion in Sm(OAr[superscript iPr6])2 also shows weak interactions with the flanking aryl rings of the terphenyloxide ligands. The complex is paramagnetic at room temperature with magnetic moment of 3.51 [mu]B.

Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled CHIRAL IRON PYRIDINE COMPLEXES AND RUTHENIUM COMPLEXES WITH N-HETEROCYCLIC CARBENE AND MACROCYCLIC(N, O) DONOR ATOM LIGANDS: SYNTHESIS, CATALYTIC ACTIVITY AND BIOLOGICAL STUDIES Submitted by Lam Kar Yee For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in April 2016 Transition metal complexes are widely applied as catalysts for organic transformation reactions such as the oxygen atom and nitrene transfer reactions and there is a growing interest to develop the medicinal applications of transition metal complexes. The studies of reactive metal-oxo and metal-nitrene intermediates are important in probing the underlying reaction mechanisms. This thesis is comprised of three main parts. In the first part, iron complexes with chiral pyridine ligands, such as 4′,6-disubstituted 2,2′ 6′,2″-terpyridine (NNN ) and 4′,6,6″-trisubstituted 2,2′ 6′,2″''-terpyridine (NNN ), were studied for their catalytic activities in asymmetric epoxidation, aziridination, amidation and sulfimidation reactions. The Fe-NNN complex catalyzed intermolecular nitrene transfer/CN bond formation reactions of styrenes with PhINTs in moderate product yields. For the asymmetric intramolecular amidation, the Fe-NNN complex can catalyze intramolecular C-N bond formation using PhI(OAc) as oxidant to form five- or six-membered ring products. The highest product yield obtained was 91 %. The complete conversion of para-substituted phenyl methyl sulfides to corresponding sulfimides was observed by using the Fe-NNN 1 2 complex as catalyst. Both the Fe-NNN and Fe-NNN complexes catalyzed asymmetric epoxidation of styrene using PhIO as oxidant at 0 C. The reaction intermediates of the nitrene/oxygen transfer reactions were studied by ESI-MS and high-valent iron-ligand multiple bonded species are proposed to be the reaction intermediates. In the second part, ruthenium pincer N-heterocyclic carbene (CNC) complexes were prepared and characterized by spectroscopic means and X-ray crystallography. II 2+ Complex [Ru (CNC)(bpy)(MeCN)], in which the CNC ligand adopts a fac-coordination mode and contains reactive CH bond of bridging methylene group, was found to react with PhINTs to result in the formation of a new CN bond and cleavage of one existing NC(methylene) bond of the CNC ligand, as revealed by X-ray crystal structure determination of the ruthenium complex product. The reaction 2+ of [Ru(CNC)(bpy)(MeCN)] with PhINTs was monitored by ESI-MS, UV-vis, and NMR spectroscopy; a paramagnetic Ru(III)-amido complex was isolated, which apparently resulted from intramolecular imido/nitrene CH insertion of a Ru(IV)-imido/nitrene intermediate and was found to undergo the observed CN bond cleavage. Such type of CN bond cleavage induced by metal-mediated imido/nitrene insertion is unprecedented in literature. The final part of this thesis is the study of the anti-angiogenic and anti-metastatic properties of the ruthenium complexes. Ruthenium complexes with different oxidation states (+2 and +3) and ligands (pincer NHC and macrocyclic (N, O) donor atom ligands) were examined for their cytotoxicity and anti-angiogenesis activity. III Among the complexes studied, [Ru (N O )Cl ]Cl (Ru-1) displays promising 2 2 2 inhibi

Book Reductive Functionalization of 3D Metal Methyl Complexes and Characterization of a Novel Dinitrogen Dicopper  I  Complex

Download or read book Reductive Functionalization of 3D Metal Methyl Complexes and Characterization of a Novel Dinitrogen Dicopper I Complex written by Hengameh Fallah and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reductive functionalization of methyl ligands by 3d metal catalysts and two possible side reactions has been studied. Selective oxidation of methane, which is the primary component of natural gas, to methanol (a more easily transportable liquid) using organometallic catalysis, has become more important due to the abundance of domestic natural gas. In this regard, reductive functionalization (RF) of methyl ligands in [M(diimine)2(CH3)(Cl)] (M: VII (d3) through CuII (d9)) complexes, has been studied computationally using density functional techniques. A SN2 mechanism for the nucleophilic attack of hydroxide on the metal-methyl bond, resulting in the formation of methanol, was studied. Similar highly exergonic pathways with very low energy SN2 barriers were observed for the proposed RF mechanism for all complexes studied. To modulate RF pathways closer to thermoneutral for catalytic purposes, a future challenge, paradoxically, requires finding a way to strengthen the metal-methyl bond. Furthermore, DFT calculations suggest that for 3d metals, ligand properties will be of greater importance than metal identity in isolating suitable catalysts for alkane hydroxylation in which reductive functionalization is used to form the C--O bond. Two possible competitive reactions for RF of metal-methyl complexes were studied to understand the factors that lower the selectivity of C--O bond forming reactions. One of them was deprotonation of the methyl group, which leads to formation of a methylene complex and water. The other side reaction was metal-methyl bond dissociation, which was assessed by calculating the bond dissociation free energies of M3d--CH3 bonds. Deprotonation was found to be competitive kinetically for most of the 1st row transition metal-methyl complexes (except for CrII, MnII and CuII), but less favorable thermodynamically as compared to reductive functionalization for all of the studied 1st row transition metal complexes. Metal-carbon bond dissociation was found to be less favorable than the RF reactions for most 3d transition metal complexes studied. The first dinitrogen dicopper (I) complex has been characterized using computational and experimental methods. Low temperature reaction of the tris(pyrazolyl)borate copper(II) hydroxide {iPr2TpCu}2(μ-OH)2 with triphenylsilane under a dinitrogen atmosphere gives the μ -N2 complex, {iPr2TpCu}2(μ -N2). X-ray crystallography reveals an only slightly activated N2 ligand (N-N: 1.111(6) Å) that bridges between two iPr2TpCuI fragments. While DFT studies of mono- and dinuclear copper dinitrogen complexes suggest a weak μ-backbonding between the d10 CuI centers and the N2 ligand, they reveal a degree of cooperativity in the dinuclear Cu-N2-Cu interaction.

Book Synthesis and Reactivity of Metal Complexes Containing Functionalized N heterocyclic Carbene Ligands for Catalytic Applications

Download or read book Synthesis and Reactivity of Metal Complexes Containing Functionalized N heterocyclic Carbene Ligands for Catalytic Applications written by Pengfei Ai and published by . 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 Synthesis and Exploratory Catalysis of 3d Metals

Download or read book Synthesis and Exploratory Catalysis of 3d Metals written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our work over the past three years has resulted in the development of electron rich and low-coordinate vanadium fragments, molecular nitrides of vanadium and parent imide systems of titanium, and the synthesis of phosphorus containing molecules of the 3d transition metal series. Likewise, with financial support from BES Division in DOE (DE-FG02-07ER15893), we now completed the full characterization of the first single molecular magnet (SMM) of Fe(III). We demonstrated that this monomeric form of Fe(III) has an unusual slow relaxation of the magnetization under zero applied field. To make matters more interesting, this system also undergoes a rare example of an intermediate to high-spin transition (an S = 3/2 to S = 5/2 transition). In 2010 we reported the synthesis of the first neutral and low-coordinate vanadium complexes having the terminal nitride functionality. We have now completed a full study to understand formation of the nitride ligand from the metastable azide precursor, and have also explored the reactivity of the nitride ligand in the context of incomplete and complete N-atom transfer. During the 2010-2013 period we also discovered a facile approach to assemble low-coordinate and low-valent vanadium(II) complexes and exploit their multielectron chemistry ranging from 1-3 electrons. Consequently, we can now access 3d ligand frameworks such as cyclo-P3 (and its corresponding radical anion), nitride radical anions and cations, low-coordinate vanadium oxo's, and the first example of a vanadium thionitrosyl complex. A cis-divacant iron(IV) imido having some ligand centered radical has been also discovered, and we are in the process of elucidating its electronic structure (in particular the sign of zero field splitting and the origin of its magnitude), bonding and reactivity. We have also revisited some paramagnetic and classic metallocene compounds with S>1/2 ground states in order to understand their reactivity patterns and electronic structure. Lastly, we are completing the synthesis and characterization of a titanium nitride anion and formation of the first example of boryl and aluminyl imido titanium complexes.
