RESUMEN
Precursors PtCl{κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HMe2-py]} (1), PtCl{κ3-N,C,N-[py-O-C6H3-O-py]} (2), Pt(OH){κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HMe2-py]} (3), and Pt(OH){κ3-N,C,N-[py-O-C6H3-O-py]} (4) were used to prepare d8-platinum bimetallic complexes. Precursors 1 and 2 react with AgBF4 and 7-azaindole (Haz) to give [Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HMe2-py]}{κ1-N-[Haz]}]BF4 (5) and [Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[py-O-C6H3-O-py]}{κ1-N-[Haz]}]BF4 (6) and 3 and 4 with indolo[2,3-b]indole (H2ii) to generate Pt{κ1-N-[Hii]}{κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HMe2-py]} (7) and Pt{κ1-N-[Hii]}{κ3-N,C,N-[py-O-C6H3-O-py]} (8). Subsequent addition of 3 and 4 to 5-7 affords bimetallic derivatives [{Pt[κ3-N,C,N-(py-C6HMe2-py)]}2{µ-N,N-[az]}]BF4 (9), [{Pt[κ3-N,C,N-(py-O-C6H3-O-py)]}2{µ-N,N-[az]}]BF4 (10), and {Pt[κ3-N,C,N-(py-C6HMe2-py)]}2{µ-N,N-[ii]} (11). X-ray structures of 9-11 reveal separations between the metals in sequence 9 (3.0515(4) Å) < 10 (3.2689(9) Å) < 11 (3.2949(2) Å). DFT calculations support σ overlap of the dz2 orbitals of platinum atoms, for 9 and 10. Accordingly, their absorption spectra show a MMLCT transition. Complex 9 is a red emitter. The excited state has 3MMLCT characteristics and a Pt-Pt separation of 2.763 Å. Complex 11 is a dual emitter in the red and NIR regions, in solid. Both excited states have a 3LC/LMCT characteristic and platinum-platinum separations of 3.290 and 3.202 Å. Intermediate 5 is a green emitter that achieves quantum yields close to unity, when diluted in PMMA and 1,2-dichloroethane at low concentrations.
RESUMEN
Iridium centers of [Ir(µ-Cl)(C8H14)2]2 (1) activate the Cß(sp2)-H bond of benzylideneacetone to give [Ir(µ-Cl){κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}2]2 (2), which is the starting point for the preparation of the spiro iridafurans IrCl{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}2(PiPr3) (3), [Ir{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}2(MeCN)2]BF4 (4), [Ir(µ-OH){κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}2]2 (5), Ir{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}2{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]} (6), and Ir{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}2{κ2-O,O-[acac]} (7). The five-membered rings are orthogonally arranged with the oxygen atoms in trans in an octahedral environment of the iridium atom. Spiro iridafurans are aromatic. The degree of aromaticity and the negative charge of the CH-carbon of the rings depend on ligand trans to the carbon directly attached to the metal. Aromaticity has been experimentally confirmed by bromination of iridafurans with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS). Reactions are sensitive to the degree of aromaticity of the ring and the negative charge of the attacked CH-carbon. Iridafurans can be selectively brominated, when different ligands lie trans to metalated carbons. Bromination of 3 occurs in the ring with the metalated carbon trans to chloride, whereas the bromination of 6 takes place in the ring with the metalated carbon trans to pyridyl. The first gives IrCl{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CBrC(Me)O]}{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}(PiPr3) (8), which reacts with more NBS to form IrCl{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CBrC(Me)O]}2(PiPr3) (9). The second yields Ir{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CBrC(Me)O]}{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]} (10). The origin of the selectivity is kinetic, with the rate-determining step of the reaction being the NBS attack. The activation energy depends on the negative charge of the attacked atom; a higher negative charge allows for a lower activation energy. Accordingly, complex 7 undergoes bromination in the acetylacetonate ligand, giving Ir{κ2-C,O-[C(Ph)CHC(Me)O]}2{κ2-O,O-[acacBr]} (11).
RESUMEN
Replacement of the chloride ligand of PtCl{κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HR2-py]} (R = H (1), Me (2)) and PtCl{κ3-N,C,N-[py-O-C6H3-O-py]} (3) by hydroxido gives Pt(OH){κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HR2-py]} (R = H (4), Me (5)) and Pt(OH){κ3-N,C,N-[py-O-C6H3-O-py]} (6). These compounds promote deprotonation of 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole, 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-methylpyrazole, 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-trifluoromethylpyrazole, and 2-(2-pyridyl)-3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)pyrrole. The coordination of the anions generates square-planar derivatives, which in solution exist as a unique species or equilibria between isomers. Reactions of 4 and 5 with 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole and 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-methylpyrazole provide Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HR2-py]}{κ1-N1-[R'pz-py]} (R = H; R' = H (7), Me (8). R = Me; R' = H (9), Me (10)), displaying κ1-N1-pyridylpyrazolate coordination. A 5-trifluoromethyl substituent causes N1-to-N2 slide. Thus, 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-trifluoromethylpyrazole affords equilibria between Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HR2-py]}{κ1-N1-[CF3pz-py]} (R = H (11a), Me (12a)) and Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HR2-py]}{κ1-N2-[CF3pz-py]} (R = H (11b), Me (12b)). 1,3-Bis(2-pyridyloxy)phenyl allows the chelating coordination of the incoming anions. Deprotonations of 3-(2-pyridyl)pyrazole and its substituted 5-methyl counterpart promoted by 6 lead to equilibria between Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[pyO-C6H3-Opy]}{κ1-N1-[R'pz-py]} (R' = H (13a), Me (14a)) with a κ-N1-pyridylpyrazolate anion, keeping the pincer coordination of the di(pyridyloxy)aryl ligand, and Pt{κ2-N,C-[pyO-C6H3(Opy)]}{κ2-N,N-[R'pz-py]} (R' = H (13c), Me (14c)) with two chelates. Under the same conditions, 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-trifluoromethylpyrazole generates the three possible isomers: Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[pyO-C6H3-Opy]}{κ1-N1-[CF3pz-py]} (15a), Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[pyO-C6H3-Opy]}{κ1-N2-[CF3pz-py]} (15b), and Pt{κ2-N,C-[pyO-C6H3(Opy)]}{κ2-N,N-[CF3pz-py]} (15c). The N1-pyrazolate atom produces a remote stabilizing effect on the chelating form, pyridylpyrazolates being better chelate ligands than pyridylpyrrolates. Accordingly, reactions of 4-6 with 2-(2-pyridyl)-3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)pyrrole yield Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[py-C6HR2-py]}{κ1-N1-[(CF3)2C4(py)HN]} (R = H (16), Me (17)) or Pt{κ3-N,C,N-[pyO-C6H3-Opy]}{κ1-N1-[(CF3)2C4(py)HN]} (18), displaying κ1-N1-pyrrolate coordination. Complexes 7-10 are efficient green phosphorescent emitters (488-576 nm). In poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) films and in dichloromethane, they experience self-quenching, due to molecular stacking. Aggregation occurs through aromatic π-π interactions, reinforced by weak platinum-platinum interactions.
RESUMEN
Two complementary procedures are presented to prepare cis-pyridyl-iridium(III) emitters of the class [3b+3b+3b'] with two orthometalated ligands of the 2-phenylpyridine type (3b) and a third ligand (3b'). They allowed to obtain four emitters of this class and to compare their properties with those of the trans-pyridyl isomers. The finding starts from IrH5(PiPr3)2, which reacts with 2-(p-tolyl)pyridine to give fac-[Ir{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}3] with an almost quantitative yield. Stirring the latter in the appropriate amount of a saturated solution of HCl in toluene results in the cis-pyridyl adduct IrCl{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}2{κ1-Cl-[Cl-H-py-C6MeH4]} stabilized with p-tolylpyridinium chloride, which can also be transformed into dimer cis-[Ir(µ-OH){κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}2]2. Adduct IrCl{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}2{κ1-Cl-[Cl-H-py-C6MeH4]} directly generates cis-[Ir{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}2{κ2-C,N-[C6H4-Isoqui]}] and cis-[Ir{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}2{κ2-C,N-[C6H4-py]}] by transmetalation from Li[2-(isoquinolin-1-yl)-C6H4] and Li[py-2-C6H4]. Dimer cis-[Ir(µ-OH){κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}2]2 is also a useful starting complex when the precursor molecule of 3b' has a fairly acidic hydrogen atom, suitable for removal by hydroxide groups. Thus, its reactions with 2-picolinic acid and acetylacetone (Hacac) lead to cis-Ir{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}2{κ2-O,N-[OC(O)-py]} and cis-Ir{κ2-C,N-[C6MeH3-py]}2{κ2-O,O-[acac]}. The stereochemistry of the emitter does not significantly influence the emission wavelengths. On the contrary, its efficiency is highly dependent on and associated with the stability of the isomer. The more stable isomer shows a higher quantum yield and color purity.
RESUMEN
The synthesis of a series of Pt{κ3-N,C,N'-[L]}X (X = Cl, RC≡C) pincer complexes derived from purine and purine nucleosides is reported. In these complexes, the 6-phenylpurine skeleton provides the N,C-cyclometalated fragment, whereas an amine, imine, or pyridine substituent of the phenyl ring supplies the additional N'-coordination point to the pincer complex. The purine N,C-fragment has two coordination positions with the metal (N1 and N7), but the formation of the platinum complexes is totally regioselective. Coordination through the N7 position leads to the thermodynamically favored [6.5]-Pt{κ3-N7,C,N'-[L]}X complexes. However, the coordination through the N1 position is preferred by the amino derivatives, leading to the isomeric kinetic [5.5]-Pt{κ3-N1,C,N'-[L]}X complexes. Extension of the reported methodology to complexes having both pincer and acetylide ligands derived from nucleosides allows the preparation of novel heteroleptic bis-nucleoside compounds that could be regarded as organometallic models of Pt-induced interstrand cross-link. Complexes having amine or pyridine arms are green phosphorescence emitters upon photoexcitation at low concentrations in CH2Cl2 solution and in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) films. They undergo self-quenching at high concentrations due to molecular aggregation. The presence of intermolecular π-π stacking and weak Pt···Pt interactions was also observed in the solid state by X-ray diffraction analysis.
RESUMEN
Reactions of polyhydrides OsH6(PiPr3)2 (1) and IrH5(PiPr3)2 (2) with rollover cyclometalated hydride complexes have been investigated in order to explore the influence of a metal center on the MHn unit of the other in mixed valence binuclear polyhydrides. Hexahydride 1 activates an ortho-CH bond of the heterocyclic moiety of the trihydride metal-ligand compounds OsH3{κ2-C,N-[C5RH2N-py]}(PiPr3)2 (R = H (3), Me (4), Ph (5)). Reactions of 3 and 4 lead to the hexahydrides (PiPr3)2H3Os{µ-[κ2-C,N-[C5RH2N-C5H3N]-N,C-κ2]}OsH3(PiPr3)2 (R = H (6), Me (7)), whereas 5 gives the pentahydride (PiPr3)2H3Os{µ-[κ2-C,N-[C5H3N-C5(C6H4)H2N]-C,N,C-κ3]}OsH2(PiPr3)2 (8). Pentahydride 2 promotes C-H bond activation of 3 and the iridium-dihydride IrH2{κ2-C,N-[C5H3N-py]}(PiPr3)2 (9) to afford the heterobinuclear pentahydride (PiPr3)2H3Os{µ-[κ2-C,N-[C5H3N-C5H3N]-N,C-κ2]}IrH2(PiPr3)2 (10) and the homobinuclear tetrahydride (PiPr3)2H2Ir{µ-[κ2-C,N-[C5H3N-C5H3N]-N,C-κ2]}IrH2(PiPr3)2 (11), respectively. Complexes 6-8 and 11 display HOMO delocalization throughout the metal-heterocycle-metal skeleton. Their sequential oxidation generates mono- and diradicals, which exhibit intervalence charge transfer transitions. This notable ability allows the tuning of the strength of the hydrogen-hydrogen and metal-hydrogen interactions within the MHn units.
RESUMEN
The saturated trihydride IrH3{κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (1; xant(PiPr2)2 = 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) coordinates the Si-H bond of triethylsilane, 1,1,1,3,5,5,5-heptamethyltrisiloxane, and triphenylsilane to give the σ-complexes IrH3(η2-H-SiR3){κ2-cis-P,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]}, which evolve to the dihydride-silyl derivatives IrH2(SiR3){κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (SiR3 = SiEt3 (2), SiMe(OSiMe3)2 (3), SiPh3 (4)) by means of the oxidative addition of the coordinated bond and the subsequent reductive elimination of H2. Complexes 2-4 activate a C-H bond of symmetrically and asymmetrically substituted arenes to form silylated arenes and to regenerate 1. This sequence of reactions defines a cycle for the catalytic direct C-H silylation of arenes. Stoichiometric isotopic experiments and the kinetic analysis of the transformations demonstrate that the C-H bond rupture is the rate-determining step of the catalysis. As a consequence, the selectivity of the silylation of substituted arenes is generally governed by ligand-substrate steric interactions.
RESUMEN
The saturated trihydride IrH3 {κ3 -P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2 )2 ]} (1; xant(PiPr2 )2 =9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) activates the B-H bond of two molecules of pinacolborane (HBpin) to give H2 , the hydride-boryl derivatives IrH2 (Bpin){κ3 -P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2 )2 ]} (2) and IrH(Bpin)2 {κ3 -P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2 )2 ]} (3) in a sequential manner. Complex 3 activates a C-H bond of two molecules of benzene to form PhBpin and regenerates 2 and 1, also in a sequential manner. Thus, complexes 1, 2, and 3 define two cycles for the catalytic direct C-H borylation of arenes with HBpin, which have dihydride 2 as a common intermediate. C-H bond activation of the arenes is the rate-determining step of both cycles, as the C-H oxidative addition to 3 is faster than to 2. The results from a kinetic study of the reactions of 1 and 2 with HBpin support a cooperative function of the hydride ligands in the B-H bond activation. The addition of the boron atom of the borane to a hydride facilitates the coordination of the B-H bond through the formation of κ1 - and κ2 -dihydrideborate intermediates.
RESUMEN
Pinacolborane, catecholborane, triethylsilane, triphenylsilane, dimethylphenylsilane, 1,1,1,3,5,5,5-heptamethyltrisiloxane, triethylgermane, triphenylgermane, and triphenylstannane deuterated at the heteroatom position have been catalytically prepared in 50-70% isolated yield, through H/D exchange between the D2 molecule and the respective boranes and hydrides of the group 14 elements, in the presence of the rhodium(I)-monohydride catalyst precursor RhH{κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} (xant(PiPr2)2 = 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene).
RESUMEN
The tris(boryl) complex Ir(Bcat)3{κ3-P,O,P-[xant(PiPr2)2]} [Bcat = catecholboryl; xant(PiPr2)2 = 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene] has been prepared and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The boryl ligands are disposed in a mer arrangement. The Ir-B bonds situated mutually trans are â¼0.1 Å longer than that disposed cis to the other two. An energy decomposition analysis method coupled to natural orbitals for chemical valence has revealed that the level of π-back-donation from the metal to the p z atomic orbital of the boron atom decreases â¼43% in the longer bonds with respect to the shorter one, while the level of σ-bonding interaction diminishes by only â¼8%.
RESUMEN
A new class of phosphorescent tris-heteroleptic iridium(III) complexes has been discovered. The addition of PhMeImAgI (PhMeIm = 1-phenyl-3-methylimidazolylidene) to the dimer [Ir(µ-Cl)(COD)]2 (1; COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) affords IrCl(COD)(PhMeIm) (2), which reacts with 1-phenylisoquinoline, 2-phenylpyridine, and 2-(2,4-difluorophenyl)pyridine to give the respective dimers [Ir(µ-Cl){κ2- C, C-(C6H4-ImMe)}{κ2- C, N-(C6H4-isoqui)}]2 (3), [Ir(µ-Cl){κ2- C, C-(C6H4-ImMe)}{κ2- C, N-(C6H4-py)}]2 (4), and [Ir(µ-Cl){κ2- C, C-(C6H4-ImMe)}{κ2- C, N-(C6F2H2-py)}]2 (5), as a result of the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)- and N-heterocycle-supported o-CH bond activation of the aryl substituents and the hydrogenation of a C-C double bond of the coordinated diene. In solution, these dimers exist as a mixture of isomers a (Im trans to N) and b (Im trans to Cl), which lie in a dynamic equilibrium. The treatment of 3-5 with Kacac (acac = acetylacetonate) yields isomers a (Im trans to N) and b (Im trans to O) of Ir{κ2- C, C-(C6H4-ImMe)}{κ2- C, N-(C6H4-isoqui)}(κ2- O, O-acac) (6a and 6b), Ir{κ2- C, C-(C6H4-ImMe)}{κ2- C, N-(C6H4-py)}(κ2- O, O-acac) (7a and 7b), and Ir{κ2- C, C-(C6H4-ImMe)}{κ2- C, N-(C6F2H4-py)}(κ2- O, O-acac) (8a and 8b), which were separated by column chromatography. The treatment of 6a with HX in acetone-water produces the protonation of the acac ligand and the formation of the bis(aquo) complex [Ir{κ2- C, C-(C6H4-ImMe)}{κ2- C, N-(C6H4-isoqui)}(H2O)2]X [X = BF4 (9a[BF4]), OTf (9a[OTf])]. The salt 9a[BF4] reacts with 2-(2-pinacolborylphenyl)-5-methylpyridine in the presence of 40 equiv of K3PO4 to afford Ir{κ2- C, C-(C6H4-ImMe)}{κ2- C, N-(C6H4-isoqui)}{κ2- C, N-(C6H4-Mepy)} (10a). Complexes 6a, 6b, 7a, 7b, 8a, 8b, and 10a are phosphorescent emitters (λem = 465-655 nm), which display short lifetimes in the range of 0.2-5.6 µs. They show high quantum yields both in doped poly(methyl methacrylate) films (0.34-0.87) and in 2-methyltetrahydrofuran at room temperature (0.40-0.93). From the point of view of their applicability to the fabrication of organic-light-emitting-diode devices, a notable improvement with regard to those containing two cyclometalated C,N ligands is achieved. The introduction of the cyclometalated aryl-NHC group allows one to reach a brightness of 1000 cd/m2 at a lower voltage and appears to give rise to higher luminous efficacy and power efficacy.
RESUMEN
The preparation, structure, dynamic behavior in solution, and reactivity of polyhydride complexes of platinum group metals, described during the last three decades, are contextualized from both organometallic and coordination chemistry points of view. These compounds, which contain dihydrogen, elongated dihydrogen, compressed dihydride, and classical dihydride ligands promote the activation of B-H, C-H, Si-H, N-H, O-H, C-C, C-N, and C-F, among other σ-bonds. In this review, it is shown that, unlike other more mature areas, the chemistry of polyhydrides offers new exciting conceptual challenges and at the same time the possibility of interacting with other fields including the conversion and storage of regenerative energy, organic synthetic chemistry, drug design, and material science. This wide range of possible interactions foresees promising advances in the near future.
RESUMEN
Small modifications on the co-ligands of complexes containing two coordinated hydrogen atoms can determine the elongated dihydrogen versus compressed dihydride nature of these species and therefore their chemical behavior. 2,6-diphenylpyridine favors the formation of the osmium(IV) cation [OsH2 (C6 H4 pyPh)(PiPr3 )2 ]+ , whereas 2-phenoxy-6-phenylpyridine, which contains an oxygen atom between the heterocycle and one of the phenyl groups, stabilizes the osmium(II) elongated dihydrogen species [Os(C6 H4 pyOPh)(η2 -H2 )(PiPr3 )2 ]+ . In contrast to the latter, the former shows a marked tendency to undergo reductive elimination of the heterocycle.
RESUMEN
A MHC6 complex of a platinum group metal with a capped octahedral arrangement of donor atoms around the metal center has been characterized. This osmium compound OsH{κ(2) -C,C-(PhBIm-C6 H4 )}3 , which reacts with HBF4 to afford the 14 e(-) species [Os{κ(2) -C,C-(PhBIm-C6 H4 )}(Ph2 BIm)2 ]BF4 stabilized by two agostic interactions, has been obtained by reaction of OsH6 (PiPr3 )2 with N,N'-diphenylbenzimidazolium chloride ([Ph2 BImH]Cl) in the presence of NEt3 . Its formation takes place through the C,C,C-pincer compound OsH2 {κ(3) -C,C,C-(C6 H4 -BIm-C6 H4 )}(PiPr3 )2 , the dihydrogen derivative OsCl{κ(2) -C,C-(PhBIm-C6 H4 )}(η(2) -H2 )(PiPr3 )2 , and the five-coordinate osmium(II) species OsCl{κ(2) -C,C-(PhBIm-C6 H4 )}(PiPr3 )2 .
RESUMEN
The pincer d(8)-monohydride complex RhH{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (xant(P(i)Pr2)2 = 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) promotes the release of 1 equiv of hydrogen from H3BNH3 and H3BNHMe2 with TOF50% values of 3150 and 1725 h(-1), to afford [BH2NH2]n and [BH2NMe2]2 and the tandem ammonia borane dehydrogenation-cyclohexene hydrogenation. DFT calculations on the ammonia borane dehydrogenation suggest that the process takes place by means of cis-κ(2)-PP-species, through four stages including: (i) Shimoi-type coordination of ammonia borane, (ii) homolytic addition of the coordinated H-B bond to afford a five-coordinate dihydride-boryl-rhodium(III) intermediate, (iii) reductive intramolecular proton transfer from the NH3 group to one of the hydride ligands, and (iv) release of H2 from the resulting square-planar hydride dihydrogen rhodium(I) intermediate.
RESUMEN
The stoichiometric reactions proposed in the mechanism of the rhodium-mediated decyanative borylation have been performed and all relevant intermediates isolated and characterized including their X-ray structures. Complex RhCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (1, xant(P(i)Pr2)2 = 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) reacts with bis(pinacolato)diboron (B2pin2), in benzene, to give the rhodium(III) derivative RhHCl(Bpin){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (4) and PhBpin. The reaction involves the oxidative addition of B2pin2 to 1 to give RhCl(Bpin)2{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}, which eliminates ClBpin generating Rh(Bpin){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (2). The reaction of the latter with the solvent yields PhBpin and the monohydride RhH{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (6), which adds the eliminated ClBpin. Complex 4 and its catecholboryl counterpart RhHCl(Bcat){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (7) have also been obtained by oxidative addition of HBR2 to 1. Complex 2 is the promoter of the decyanative borylation. Thus, benzonitrile and 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzonitrile insert into the Rh-B bond of 2 to form Rh{C(R-C6H4)âNBpin}{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (R = H (8), p-CF3 (9)), which evolve into the aryl derivatives RhPh{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (3) and Rh(p-CF3-C6H4){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (10), as a result of the extrusion of CNBpin. The reactions of 3 and 10 with B2pin2 yield the arylBpin products and regenerate 2.

A wide range of ruthenium complexes stabilized by the POP-pincer ligand xant(P(i)Pr2)2 (9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) were prepared starting from cis-RuCl2{κ-S-(DMSO)4} (1; DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide). Treatment of toluene solutions of this adduct with the diphosphine under reflux leads to RuCl2{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}(κ-S-DMSO) (2), which reacts with H2 in the presence of a Brønsted base. The reaction in the presence of Et3N affords RuHCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}(κ-S-DMSO) (3), whereas NaH removes both chloride ligands to give RuH2{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}(κ-S-DMSO) (4). The stirring of 3 in 2-propanol under 3 atm of H2 for a long time produces the elimination of DMSO and the coordination of H2 to yield the dihydrogen derivative, RuHCl(η(2)-H2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (5). In contrast to H2, PPh3 easily displaces DMSO from the metal center of 3 to afford RuHCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}(PPh3) (6), which can be also obtained starting from RuHCl(PPh3)3 (7) and xant(P(i)Pr2)2. In contrast to 3, complex 4 does not undergo DMSO elimination to give RuH2(η(2)-H2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (8) under a H2 atmosphere. However, the latter can be prepared by hydrogenation of Ru(COD)(COT) (9; COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene and COT = 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene) in the presence of xant(P(i)Pr2)2. A more efficient procedure to obtain 8 involves the sequential hydrogenation with ammonia borane of the allenylidene derivative RuCl2(âCâCâCPh2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (10), which is formed from the reaction of 2 with 1,1-diphenyl-2-propyn-1-ol. The hydrogenation initially gives RuCl2(âCâCHCHPh2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (11), which undergoes the subsequent reduction of the Ru-C double bond to yield the hydride-tetrahydroborate complex, RuH(η(2)-H2BH2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (12). The osmium complex, OsCl2{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}(κ-S-DMSO) (13), reacts with 1,1-diphenyl-2-propyn-1-ol in a similar manner to its ruthenium counterpart 2 to yield the allenylidene derivative, OsCl2(âCâCâCPh2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (14). Ammonia borane also reduces the Cß-Cγ double bond of the allenylidene of 14. However, the resulting vinylidene species, OsCl2(âCâCHCHPh2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (15), is inert. Complex 12 is an efficient catalyst precursor for the hydrogen transfer from 2-propanol to ketones, the α-alkylations of phenylacetonitrile and acetophenone with alcohols, and the regio- and stereoselective head-to-head (Z) dimerization of terminal alkynes.
RESUMEN
Treatment of the dimer [Rh(µ-Cl)(C8H14)2]2 (1a) with 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene [xant(P(i)Pr2)2] leads to the d(8) square-planar complex RhCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (2), whereas reaction of the iridium counterpart [Ir(µ-Cl)(C8H14)2]2 (1b) gives the d(6) octahedral compound IrHCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)[(i)PrPCH(Me)CH2]} (3) as a result of the intramolecular C-H bond activation of one of the isopropyl substituents of the phosphine. Stirring 2 and 3 in 0.5 N KOH solutions of 2-propanol gives rise to the formation of hydrides RhH{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (4) and IrH3{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (5), respectively. In n-octane at 60 °C, complex 2 is stable. However, compound 3 activates the alkane to give the cis-dihydride IrH2Cl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (6) and a mixture of 3- and 4-octene. Complex 6 can be also obtained by the reaction of 3 with H2. Under the same conditions, 2 affords the rhodium analogue RhH2Cl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (7). Compounds 2-4 react with triflic acid (HOTf) to give RhHCl(OTf){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (8), IrHCl(OTf){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (9), and RhH2(OTf){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (10), respectively. The related iridium derivative IrH2(OTf){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (11) has also been prepared by the reaction of 6 with Tl(OTf). Complexes 2, 6, and 9 have been characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The {xant(P(i)Pr2)2}M skeleton is T-shaped with the metal center situated in the common vertex.
RESUMEN
9,9-Dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene (xant(P(i)Pr2)2) derivatives RhCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (1) and I rHCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)[(i)PrPCH(Me) CH2]} (2) react with diphenylsilane and triethylsilane to give the saturated d(6)-compounds RhHCl(SiR3){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (SiR3 = SiHPh2 (3), SiEt3 (4)) and IrHCl(SiR3){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (SiR3 = SiHPh2 (5), SiEt3 (6)). Complexes 3 and 5 undergo a Cl/H position exchange process via the MH{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (M = Rh (8), Ir (E)) intermediates. The rhodium complex 3 affords the square planar d(8)-silyl derivative Rh(SiClPh2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (7), whereas the iridium derivative 5 gives IrH2(SiClPh2){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (9), which is stable. In agreement with the formation of 7, the reactions of 8 with silanes are a general method to prepare square planar d(8)-rhodium-silyl derivatives. Thus, the addition of triethylsilane and triphenylsilane to 8 initially leads to the dihydrides RhH2(SiR3){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (SiR3 = SiEt3 (10), SiPh3 (11)), which lose molecular hydrogen to afford Rh(SiR3){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (SiR3 = SiEt3 (12), SiPh3 (13)). Treatment of 7 with NaBAr(F)4·2H2O leads to the cationic five-coordinate d(6)-species [RhH{Si(OH)Ph2}{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}]BAr(F)4 (14) through a silylene intermediate. According to the participation of the latter in the formation of 14, this cation is an efficient catalyst precursor for the monoalcoholysis of diphenylsilane with a wide range of alcohols, reaching turnover frequencies at 50% of conversion between 4000 and 76 500 h(-1). The X-ray structures of 3, 6, 7, 9, 12, and 14 are also reported.
RESUMEN
A wide range of osmium-polyhydride complexes stabilized by the POP-pincer ligand xant(P(i)Pr2)2 (9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) have been synthesized through cis-OsCl2{κ-S-(DMSO)4} (1, DMSO = dimethyl sulfoxide). Treatment of toluene solutions of this adduct with the diphosphine, under reflux, leads to OsCl2{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}(κ-S-DMSO) (2). The reaction of 2 with H2 in the presence of Et3N affords OsH3Cl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (3), which can be also prepared by addition of xant(P(i)Pr2)2 to toluene solutions of the unsaturated d(4)-trihydride OsH3Cl(P(i)Pr3)2 (5). Complex 3 reductively eliminates H2 in toluene at 90 °C. In the presence of dimethyl sulfoxide, the resulting monohydride is trapped by the S-donor molecule to give OsHCl{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}(κ-S-DMSO) (6). The reaction of 2 with H2 is sensible to the Brønsted base. Thus, in contrast to Et3N, NaH removes both chloride ligands and the hexahydride OsH6{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (7), containing a κ(2)-P-binding diphosphine, is formed under 3 atm of hydrogen at 50 °C. Complex 7 releases a H2 molecule to yield the tetrahydride OsH4{xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (8), which can be also prepared by reaction of OsH6(P(i)Pr3)2 (9) with xant(P(i)Pr2)2. Complex 8 reduces H(+) to give, in addition to H2, the oxidized OsH4-species [OsH4(OTf){xant(P(i)Pr2)2}](+) (10, OTf = trifluoromethanesulfonate). The redox process occurs in two stages via the OsH5-cation [OsH5{xant(P(i)Pr2)2}](+) (11). The metal oxidation state four can be recovered. The addition of acetonitrile to 10 leads to [OsH2(η(2)-H2)(CH3CN){xant(P(i)Pr2)2}](2+) (12). The deprotonation of 12 yields the osmium(IV) trihydride [OsH3(CH3CN){xant(P(i)Pr2)2}](+) (13), which is also formed by addition of HOTf to the acetonitrile solutions of 8. The latter is further an efficient catalyst precursor for the head-to-head (Z)-dimerization of phenylacetylene and tert-butylacetylene. During the activation process of the tetrahydride, the bis(alkynyl)vinylidene derivatives Os(C≡CR)2(=CâCHR){xant(P(i)Pr2)2} (R = Ph (14), (t)Bu (15)) are formed.
