RESUMO

Protein engineering has emerged as a powerful methodology to tailor the properties of proteins. It empowers the design of biohybrid catalysts and materials, thereby enabling the convergence of materials science, chemistry, and medicine. The choice of a protein scaffold is an important factor for performance and potential applications. In the past two decades, we utilized the ferric hydroxamate uptake protein FhuA. FhuA is, from our point of view, a versatile scaffold due to its comparably large cavity and robustness toward temperature as well as organic cosolvents. FhuA is a natural iron transporter located in the outer membrane of Escherichia coli (E. coli). Wild-type FhuA consists of 714 amino acids and has a ß-barrel structure composed of 22 antiparallel ß-sheets, closed by an internal globular "cork" domain (amino acids 1-160). FhuA is robust in a broad pH range and toward organic cosolvents; therefore, we envisioned FhuA to be a suitable platform for various applications in (i) biocatalysis, (ii) materials science, and (iii) the construction of artificial metalloenzymes.(i) Applications in biocatalysis were achieved by removing the globular cork domain (FhuA_Δ1-160), thereby creating a large pore for the passive transport of otherwise difficult-to-import molecules through diffusion. Introducing this FhuA variant into the outer membrane of E. coli facilitates the uptake of substrates for downstream biocatalytic conversion. Furthermore, removing the globular "cork" domain without structural collapse of the ß-barrel protein allowed the use of FhuA as a membrane filter, exhibiting a preference for d-arginine over l-arginine.(ii) FhuA is a transmembrane protein, which makes it attractive to be used for applications in non-natural polymeric membranes. Inserting FhuA into polymer vesicles yielded so-called synthosomes (i.e., catalytic synthetic vesicles in which the transmembrane protein acted as a switchable gate or filter). Our work in this direction enables polymersomes to be used in biocatalysis, DNA recovery, and the controlled (triggered) release of molecules. Furthermore, FhuA can be used as a building block to create protein-polymer conjugates to generate membranes.(iii) Artificial metalloenzymes (ArMs) are formed by incorporating a non-native metal ion or metal complex into a protein. This combines the best of two worlds: the vast reaction and substrate scope of chemocatalysis and the selectivity and evolvability of enzymes. With its large inner diameter, FhuA can harbor (bulky) metal catalysts. Among others, we covalently attached a Grubbs-Hoveyda-type catalyst for olefin metathesis to FhuA. This artificial metathease was then used in various chemical transformations, ranging from polymerizations (ring-opening metathesis polymerization) to enzymatic cascades involving cross-metathesis. Ultimately, we generated a catalytically active membrane by copolymerizing FhuA and pyrrole. The resulting biohybrid material was then equipped with the Grubbs-Hoveyda-type catalyst and used in ring-closing metathesis.The number of reports on FhuA and its various applications indicates that it is a versatile building block to generate hybrid catalysts and materials. We hope that our research will inspire future research efforts at the interface of biotechnology, catalysis, and material science in order to create biohybrid systems that offer smart solutions for current challenges in catalysis, material science, and medicine.

RESUMO

Artificial metalloenzymes have emerged as biohybrid catalysts that allow to combine the reactivity of a metal catalyst with the flexibility of protein scaffolds. This work reports the artificial metalloenzymes based on the ß-barrel protein nitrobindin NB4, in which a cofactor [CoII X(Me3 TACD-Mal)]+ X- (X=Cl, Br; Me3 TACD=N,N' ,N''-trimethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane, Mal=CH2 CH2 CH2 NC4 H2 O2 ) was covalently anchored via a Michael addition reaction. These biohybrid catalysts showed higher efficiency than the free cobalt complexes for the oxidation of benzylic C(sp3 )-H bonds in aqueous media. Using commercially available oxone (2KHSO5 ⋅ KHSO4 ⋅ K2 SO4 ) as oxidant, a total turnover number of up to 220 and 97 % ketone selectivity were achieved for tetralin. As catalytically active intermediate, a mononuclear terminal cobalt(IV)-oxo species [Co(IV)=O]2+ was generated by reacting the cobalt(II) cofactor with oxone in aqueous solution and characterized by ESI-TOF MS.

RESUMO

Cationic half-sandwich zinc complexes containing chelating amines [Cp*Zn(Ln)][BAr4F] (2a, Cp* = η3-C5Me5, Ln = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, TMEDA; 2b, Ln = N,N,N',N'-tetraethylethylenediamine, TEEDA; 2c, Cp* = η1-C5Me5, Ln = N,N,N',N'',N''-pentamethyl-diethylenetriamine, PMDTA; Ar4F = (3,5-(CF3)2C6H3)4) reacted with dihydrogen (ca. 2 bar) in THF at 80 °C to give molecular zinc hydride cations [(Ln)ZnH(thf)m][BAr4F] (3a,b, m = 1; 3c, m = 0) previously reported along with Cp*H. Pseudo first-order kinetics with respect to the concentration of 2b suggests heterolytic cleavage of dihydrogen by the Zn-Cp* bond, reminiscent of σ-bond metathesis. Hydrogenolysis of the zinc cation 2b in the presence of benzophenone gave the zinc alkoxide [(TEEDA)Zn(OCHPh2)(thf)][BAr4F] (5b). Cation 2b was shown to catalytically hydrogenate N-benzylideneaniline. The PMDTA complex 2c underwent C-H bond activation in acetonitrile to give a dinuclear µ-κC,κN-cyanomethyl zinc complex [(PMDTA)Zn(CH2CN)]2[BAr4F]2 (6c).

RESUMO

Oxidative addition of dihydrogen across a metal-metal bond to form reactive metal hydrides in homogeneous catalysis is known for transition metals but not for zinc(I)-zinc(I) bond as found in Carmona's eponymous dizinconene [Zn2Cp*2] (Cp* = η5-C5Me5). Dihydrogen reacted with the heteroleptic zinc(I)-zinc(I) bonded cation [(L2)Zn-ZnCp*][BAr4F] (L2 = TMEDA, N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, TEEDA, N,N,N',N'-tetraethylethylenediamine; ArF = 3,5-(CF3)2C6H3) under 2 bar at 80 °C to give the zinc(II) hydride cation [(L2)ZnH(thf)][BAr4F] along with zinc metal and Cp*H derived from the intermediate [Cp*ZnH]. DFT calculations show that the cleavage of dihydrogen occurs through a highly unsymmetrical transition state. Mechanistic studies agree with a heterolytic cleavage of dihydrogen as a result of the cationic charge and unsymmetrical ligand coordination. To explore the existence of zinc(I) hydride, thermally unstable hydridotriphenylborate complexes of zinc(I) [(L2)Zn(HBPh3)-ZnCp*] (L2 = TMEDA, TEEDA; TMPDA, N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-1,3-propylenediamine) have been prepared by salt metathesis and were shown to undergo fast exchange with both BPh3 and [HBPh3]-.

RESUMO

A typical component of polymer waste is polystyrene (PS) used in numerous applications, but degraded only slowly in the environment due to its hydrophobic properties. To increase the reactivity of polystyrene, polar groups need to be introduced. Here, biohybrid catalysts based on the engineered anchor peptide LCI_F16C are presented, which are capable of attaching to polystyrene microparticles and hydroxylating benzylic C-H bonds in polystyrene microparticles using commercially available oxone as oxidant. LCI peptides achieve a dense surface coverage of PS through monolayer formation within minutes in aqueous solutions at ambient temperature. The catalytically active cobalt cofactor Co-L1 or Co-L2 with a modified NNNN macrocyclic TACD ligand (TACD=1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane) is covalently bound to the anchor peptide LCI through a maleimide linker. Compared to the free cofactors, a 12- to 15-fold improvement in catalytic activity using biohybrid catalysts based on LCI_F16C was observed.

RESUMO

In the presence of TMEDA (TMEDA=N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine), zinc dihydride reacted with germanium(II) compounds (BDI-H)Ge (1) and [(BDI)Ge][B(3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 )4 ] (3) (BDI-H = HC{(C=CH2 )(CMe)(NAr)2 }, BDI = [HC(CMeNAr)2 ]; Ar = 2,6-i Pr2 C6 H3 ) by formal insertion of the germanium(II) center into the Zn-H bond of polymeric [ZnH2 ]n to give neutral and cationic zincagermane with a H-Ge-Zn-H core [(BDI-H)Ge(H)-(H)Zn(tmeda)] (2) and [(BDI)Ge(H)-(H)Zn(tmeda)][B(3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 )4 ] (4), respectively. Compound 2 eliminated [ZnH2 ] giving diamido germylene 1 at 60 °C. Compound 2 and deuterated analogue 2-d2 exchanged with [ZnH2 ]n and [ZnD2 ]n in the presence of TMEDA to give a mixture of 2 and 2-d2 . Compounds 2 and 4 reacted with carbon dioxide (1 bar) at room temperature to form zincagermane diformate [(BDI-H)Ge(OCHO)-(OCHO)Zn(tmeda)] (5) and formate bridged digermylene [({BDI}Ge)2 (µ-OCHO)]+ [B(C6 H3 (CF3 )2 )4 ] (6) along with zinc formate [(tmeda)Zn(µ-OCHO)3 Zn(tmeda)][B(C6 H3 (CF3 )2 )4 ] (7), respectively. The hydridic nature of the Ge-H and Zn-H bonds in 2 and 4 was probed by reactions with Brönsted and Lewis acids.

RESUMO

Hydroboration of CO2 to formoxy borane occurs under ambient conditions in acetonitrile using pinacolborane HBpin in the presence of gallium(I) cation [(Me4TACD)Ga][BAr4] (1; Me4TACD = N,N',N″,N'''-tetramethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane; Ar = C6H3-3,5-Me2). Slow turnover was accompanied by side reactions including ligand scrambling of HBpin to give BH3(CH3CN) and crystalline B2pin3. When 1 was reacted with CO2 alone, the formation of the gallium(III) carbonato complex [(Me4TACD)Ga(κ2-O2CO)][BAr4] (3) along with CO was observed. This complex was assumed to form via the unstable oxido cation [(Me4TACD)Ga=O]+ (4). Reaction of 1 with N2O in the presence of BPh3 confirmed the formation of the oxido cation, which was spectroscopically characterized as a triphenylborane adduct [(Me4TACD)Ga=O(BPh3)][BAr4] (4·BPh3). CO was also detected when CO2 was reacted with 1 in the presence of HBpin, suggesting that compound 3 may also be formed in initial stages of catalysis. Compound 3 reacts with HBpin to give formoxy borane, borane redistribution products, and an unidentified Me4TACD-containing species 5, which was also observed in "catalytic" runs starting from 1, HBpin, and CO2. Hydroboration of CO2 using HBpin with slow turnover and competitive ligand scrambling was also observed in the presence of gallium(III) hydride dication [(Me4TACD)GaH][BAr4]2 (2), which is unreactive toward CO2 in the absence of HBpin.

RESUMO

In the presence of TMEDA (N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine), partially deaggregated zinc dihydride as hydrocarbon suspensions react with the gallium(I) compound [(BDI)Ga] (I, BDI={HC(C(CH3 )N(2,6-iPr2 -C6 H3 ))2 }- ) by formal oxidative addition of a Zn-H bond to the gallium(I) centre. Dissociation of the labile TMEDA ligand in the resulting complex [(BDI)Ga(H)-(H)Zn(tmeda)] (1) facilitates insertion of a second equiv. of I into the remaining Zn-H to form a thermally sensitive trinuclear species [{(BDI)Ga(H)}2 Zn] (2). Compound 1 exchanges with polymeric zinc dideuteride [ZnD2 ]n in the presence of TMEDA, and with compounds I and 2 via sequential and reversible ligand dissociation and gallium(I) insertion. Spectroscopic and computational studies demonstrate the reversibility of oxidative addition of each Zn-H bond to the gallium(I) centres.

RESUMO

The use of the 15-membered NNNNN macrocyclic ligand Me5PACP (Me5PACP = 1,4,7,10,13-pentamethyl-1,4,7,10,13-pentaazacyclopentadecane) allowed the isolation of two cationic strontium hydride complexes by hydrogenolysis of benzyl precursors. Treatment of sparingly soluble [(Me5PACP)Sr(CH2Ph)2] with dihydrogen gave free Me5PACP, toluene, and oligomeric strontium hydride [SrH2]n, while hydrogenolysis in the presence of 1 equiv of the benzyl cation [(Me5PACP)Sr(CH2Ph)][B(C6H3-3,5-Me2)4] enabled isolation of the thermally unstable trihydride cation [(Me5PACP)2Sr2(µ-H)3][B(C6H3-3,5-Me2)4]. When the benzyl cation [(Me5PACP)Sr(CH2Ph)][BAr4]2 (Ar = C6H3-3,5-Me2 or C6H4-4-nBu) was reacted with dihydrogen or n-octylsilane, dihydride complexes [(Me5PACP)2Sr2(µ-H)2][BAr4]2 containing a dinuclear core bridged by two hydride ligands were obtained. The soluble dihydride complex [(Me5PACP)2Sr2(µ-H)2][B(C6H4-4-nBu)4]2 was tested in olefin hydrogenation and hydrosilylation catalysis. Kinetic analyses for [(Me5PACP)2Sr2(µ-H)2]2+ showed lower catalytic activity as compared to that of the isostructural calcium homologue [(Me5PACP)2Ca2(µ-H)2]2+. This is explained by a shift in the monomer-dimer equilibrium which precedes the catalytic cycle.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Inflammatory responses play major roles in the development of acute lung injury following lung cancer surgery. The authors tested the hypothesis that thoracic epidural anesthesia (TEA) during surgery could attenuate both systemic and local inflammatory cytokine productions in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery. DESIGN: A prospective randomized controlled trial. SETTING: At Keio University Hospital, Tokyo, Japan. PARTICIPANTS: Patients scheduled for lung cancer surgery. INTERVENTIONS: Sixty patients were randomly allocated into two groups (n = 30 each group): the epidural group (group E), in which anesthesia was maintained with propofol, fentanyl, rocuronium, and epidural anesthesia with 0.25% levobupivacaine; or the remifentanil group (group R), in which a remifentanil infusion was used as a potent analgesia instead of epidural anesthesia. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The lung epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and blood sampling were collected prior to one-lung ventilation (OLV) initiation (T1) and at 30 minutes after the end of OLV (T2). The concentrations of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-10 in the ELF at T2 were increased significantly compared with those at T1 in both groups. The ELF concentration of IL-6 in group E was significantly lower than that in group R at T2 (median [interquartile range]: 39.7 [13.8-80.2] versus 76.1 [44.9-138.2], p = 0.008). Plasma IL-6 concentrations at T2, which increased in comparison to that at T1, were not significantly different between the two groups. The plasma concentrations of TNF-α did not change in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: This randomized clinical trial suggested that TEA could attenuate local inflammatory responses in the lungs during lung cancer surgery.

RESUMO

Protonolysis of [Cp*M] (M=Ga, In, Tl) with [(Me4 TACD)H][BAr4 Me ] (Me4 TACD=N,N',N'',N'''-tetramethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane; [BAr4 Me ]- =[B{C6 H3 -3,5-(CH3 )2 }4 ]- ) provided monovalent salts [(Me4 TACD)M][BAr4 Me ], whereas [Cp*Al]4 yielded trivalent [(Me4 TACD)AlH][BAr4 Me ]2 . Protonation of [(Me4 TACD)Ga][BAr4 Me ] with [Et3 NH][BAr4 Me ] gave an unusually acidic (pKa (CH3 CN)=24.5) gallium(III) hydride dication [(Me4 TACD)GaH][BAr4 Me ]2 . Deprotonation with IMe4 (1,3,4,5-tetramethyl-imidazol-ylidene) returned [(Me4 TACD)Ga][BAr4 Me ]. These reversible processes occur with formal two-electron oxidation and reduction of gallium. DFT calculations suggest that gallium(I) protonation is facilitated by strong coordination of the tetradentate ligand, which raises the HOMO energy. High nuclear charge of [(Me4 TACD)GaH]2+ facilitates hydride-to-metal charge transfer during deprotonation. Attempts to prepare a gallium(III) dihydride cation resulted in spontaneous dehydrogenation to [(Me4 TACD)Ga]+ .

RESUMO

H2 adds reversibly across the metal-metal bond of [(BDI)Ga(H)-Zn(tmeda)(thf)][BAr4 F ] (BDI=[HC{C(CH3 )N(2,6-iPr2 -C6 H3 )}2 ]- , TMEDA=N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine, BAr4 F- =[B(C6 H3 -3,5-(CF3 )2 )4 ]- ). Due to the stabilising effect of solvent coordination, hydrogenation products [(BDI)GaH2 ] and [(tmeda)ZnH(thf)][BAr4 F ] are favoured in THF solution, but THF-free mixtures of [(BDI)GaH2 ] and [(tmeda)ZnH(OEt2 )][BAr4 F ] are predisposed towards entropically driven dehydrogenation to [(BDI)Ga(H)-Zn(tmeda)][BAr4 F ] in fluorobenzene solution.

RESUMO

The cationic benzyl complex [(Me4 TACD)Sr(CH2 Ph)][A] (Me4 TACD=1,4,7,10-tetramethyltetraazacyclododecane; A=B(C6 H3 -3,5-Me2 )4 ) reacted with two equivalents of phenylsilane to give the bridging hexahydridosilicate complex [(Me4 TACD)2 Sr2 (thf)4 (µ-κ3 : κ3 -SiH6 )][A]2 (3 a). Rapid phenyl exchange between phenylsilane molecules is assumed to generate monosilane SiH4 that is trapped by two strontium hydride cations [(Me4 TACD)SrH(thf)x ]+ . Complex 3 a decomposed in THF at room temperature to give the terminal silanide complex [(Me4 TACD)Sr(SiH3 )(thf)2 ][A], with release of H2 . Upon reaction with a weak Brønsted acid, CO2 , and 1,3,5,7-cyclooctatetraene SiH4 was released. The reaction of a 1 : 2 mixture of cationic benzyl and neutral dibenzyl complex with phenylsilane gave the trinuclear silanide complex [(Me4 TACD)3 Sr3 (µ2 -H)3 (µ3 -SiH3 )2 ][A], while n OctSiH3 led to the trinuclear (n-octyl)pentahydridosilicate complex [(Me4 TACD)3 Sr3 (µ2 -H)3 (µ3 -SiH5 n Oct)][A].

RESUMO

The fifteen-membered NNNNN macrocycle Me5 PACP (Me5 PACP=1,4,7,10,13-pentamethyl-1,4,7,10,13-pentaazacyclopentadecane) stabilized the [CaH]+ fragment as a dimer with a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal coordination geometry at calcium. The hydride complex was prepared by protonolysis of calcium dibenzyl with the conjugate acid of Me5 PACP followed by hydrogenolysis or treating with n OctSiH3 of the intermediate calcium benzyl cation. The calcium hydride catalyzed the hydrogenation and hydrosilylation of unactivated olefins faster than the analogous calcium complex stabilized by the twelve-membered NNNN macrocycle Me4 TACD (Me4 TACD=1,4,7,10-tetramethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane). Kinetic investigations indicate that higher catalytic efficiency for the Me5 PACP stabilized calcium hydride is due to easier dissociation of the dimer in solution when compared to the Me4 TACD analogue.

RESUMO

Zinc has been an element of choice for carbon dioxide reduction in recent years. Zinc compounds have been showcased as catalysts for carbon dioxide hydrosilylation and hydroboration. The extent of carbon dioxide reduction can depend on various factors, including electrophilicity at the zinc center and the denticity of the ancillary ligands. In a few cases, the addition of Lewis acids to zinc hydride catalysts markedly influences carbon dioxide reduction. These factors have been investigated by exploring elementary reactions of carbon dioxide hydrosilylation and hydroboration by using cationic zinc hydrides bearing tetradentate tris[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]amine and tridentate N,N,N',N'',N''-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine in the presence of triphenylborane and tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane.

RESUMO

Thermally sensitive polymeric zinc dihydride [ZnH2]n can conveniently be prepared by the reaction of ZnEt2 with [AlH3(NEt3)]. When reacted with CO2 (1 bar) in the presence of chelating N-donor ligands Ln = N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA), N,N,N',N'-tetramethyl-1,3-propanediamine (TMPDA), N,N,N',N″,N''-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (PMDTA), and 1,4,7,10-tetramethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane (Me4TACD), insertion into the Zn-H bond readily occurred. Depending on the denticity n, formates [(Ln)Zn(OCHO)2] were isolated and structurally characterized, either as a molecule (Ln = TMEDA, TMPDA, PMDTA) or a charge-separated ion pair [(Ln)Zn(OCHO)][OCHO] (Ln = Me4TACD). The reaction of [ZnH2]n with the mild Lewis acid BPh3 in the presence of chelating N-donor ligands Ln gave a series of hydridotriphenylborates, either as a contact ion pair [(L2)Zn(H)(HBPh3)] (L2 = TMEDA, TMPDA) or a separated ion pair [(Ln)Zn(H)][HBPh3] (Ln = PMDTA, Me4TACD). In the crystal, the contact ion pair [(TMEDA)Zn(H)(HBPh3)] showed a bent Zn-H-B bridge indicative of a delocalized Zn-H-B interaction. In contrast, a linear Zn-H-B bridge for [(TMPDA)Zn(H)(HBPh3)] was observed, suggesting a contact ion pair. In THF solution, both complexes show an exchange with free BPh3 as well as [HBPh3]-. DFT calculations suggest the presence of [HBPh3]- anion with a highly polarized B-H bond that interacts with the Lewis acidic zinc hydride cation [(L2)Zn(H)]+. The hydridotriphenylborates [(Ln)Zn(H)(HBPh3)] underwent CO2 insertion to give (formato)zinc (formoxy)triphenylborate complexes [(Ln)Zn(OCHO)][(OCHO)BPh3] (Ln = TMPDA, PMDTA, Me4TACD). For Ln = TMEDA, a dinuclear complex [(Ln)2Zn2(µ-OCHO)3][(OCHO)BPh3] was isolated. Hydridotriphenylborates [(Ln)Zn(H)(HBPh3)] catalyzed the hydrosilylation of CO2 (1 bar) by nBuMe2SiH in THF at 70 °C to give formoxysilane and (methoxy)silane.

RESUMO

A modified Cp*Ru complex, equipped with a maleimide group, was covalently attached to a cysteine of an engineered variant of Ferric hydroxamate uptake protein component: A (FhuA). This synthetic metalloprotein catalyzed the intermolecular alkene-alkyne coupling of 3-butenol with 5-hexynenitrile. When compared with the protein-free Cp*Ru catalyst, the biohybrid catalyst produced the linear product with higher regioselectivity.

RESUMO

A series of hafnium complexes with a reduced arene of the general formula [K(L)][Hf(Xy-N3 N)(arene)] (Xy-N3 N={(3,5-Me2 C6 H3 )NCH2 CH2 }3 N3- , L=THF, 18-crown-6; arene=C10 H8 2- , C14 H10 2- ) mimic the chemistry of hafnium in its formal oxidation state +II. All compounds were obtained upon reduction of the chlorido complex [HfCl(Xy-N3 N)(thf)] with two equivalents of potassium naphthalenide or anthracenide. The reducing nature and the basicity of the reduced anthracene ligand were explored in the reaction of benzonitrile and azobenzene, and by deprotonation of tert-butylacetylene, respectively. The reduction of benzonitrile provides an initial double nitrile insertion product under kinetic control that rearranges after extrusion of one of the inserted nitriles to a hafnium imido complex as the thermodynamic product. The reduction of azobenzene resulted in a diphenylhydrazido(2-) complex. Treatment of terminal alkynes with the anthracene or diphenylhydrazido(2-) complex led to the selective protonation of the corresponding dianionic ligand.

Alkali metal naphthalenide or anthracenide reacted with scandium(III) anilides [Sc(X){N(tBu)Xy}2 (thf)] (X=N(tBu)Xy (1); X=Cl (2); Xy=C6 H3 -3,5-Me2 ) to give scandium complexes [M(thf)n ][Sc{N(tBu)Xy}2 (RA)] (M=Li-K; n=1-6; RA=C10 H8 2- (3-Naph-K) and C14 H10 2- (3-Anth-M)) containing a reduced arene ligand. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction revealed the scandium(III) center bonded to the naphthalene dianion in a σ2 :π-coordination mode, whereas the anthracene dianion is symmetrically attached to the scandium(III) center in a σ2 -fashion. All compounds have been characterized by multinuclear, including 45 Sc NMR spectroscopy. Quantum chemical calculations of these intensely colored arene complexes confirm scandium to be in the oxidation state +3. The intense absorptions observed in the UV/Vis spectra are due to ligand-to-metal charge transfers. Whereas nitriles underwent C-C coupling reaction with the reduced arene ligand, the reaction with one equivalent of [NEt3 H][BPh4 ] led to the mono-protonation of the reduced arene ligand.

RESUMO

Potassium silanide [KSiH3 ]∞ contains 4.2 wt % of hydrogen and has been intensely studied as hydrogen storage material. The macrocyclic ligand Me4 TACD (1,4,7,10-tetramethyl-1,4,7,10-tetraaminocyclododecane, L) stabilizes the full range of triphenylsilyl complexes [(L)MSiPh3 ]n (M=Li-Cs), which react with H2 or PhSiH3 to form molecular [(L)MSiH3 ]n that can be isolated in soluble form and fully characterized.
