杂双核(H)Rh-Cr配合物中乙烯插入RhI—H键反应的密度泛函研究

采用密度泛函理论B3LYP方法研究了配体和配位数对乙烯插入杂双核(CO)₄Cr(m-PH₂)₂RhH(L_n) (L＝CO或PH₃, n＝1或2)配合物中Rh—H键反应的影响. 计算结果表明, 六配位乙烯复合物中乙烯与铑之间轨道相互作用主要为乙烯到铑中心的s供体相互作用; 而五配位乙烯复合物中乙烯与铑中心间相互作用涉及乙烯到铑中心的s供体相互作用和铑到乙烯的p反馈作用. PH₃配体在热力学上不利于该反应. 处于氢配体对位的膦配体能加速乙烯插入反应. 乙烯插入的五配位反应途径占优势. Cr(CO)₄部分的引入降低了乙烯插入反应的活化能.

长链烷基季铵盐插层氧化石墨的结构变化

基于改进的Hummers法制备氧化石墨(GO),并以长链烷基季铵盐(C_nTAB)对其进行插层处理;通过改变C_nTAB的链长、浓度,得到系列C_nTAB/GO插层复合物。采用XRD和元素分析对产物的最大底面间距及C_nTAB插入量进行表征。结果表明,随着C_nTAB链长的增长、C_nTAB浓度的增大,C_nTAB/GO插层复合物的最大底面间距逐渐增大。C_nTAB通过离子键作用和疏水键作用插入到GO层间,在GO片层上的吸附规律符合修正型(Modified)Langmuir模型,即C_nTAB以单分子层吸附在GO片层上。根据C_nTAB/GO插层复合物最大底面间距及C_nTAB插入量的变化规律分析,得出C_nTAB在GO层间的排布模式有单层平躺模式、类双层平躺模式、单层倾斜模式和单层直立模式。

铑-双膦配合物的咬角效应对催化1-十二烯氢甲酰化反应的影响

研究了HRh(CO)(PPh₃)₃-双膦配体(BISBI，BDPX，BDNA和BINAP)体系在1-十二烯氢甲酰化反应中的催化性能。4种双膦配体具有不同的空间结构，因而有不同的咬角(bite angle)，它们与铑催化剂前体HRh(CO)(PPh₃)₃进行配体交换后，形成不同的催化活性物种。4种复合催化剂体系中，HRh(CO)(PPh₃)₃-BISBI(咬角为120°)对直链醛的形成具有很高的区域选择性，这可能是因为形成了有利于生成直链烷基-铑的ee构型催化活性物种，其它3种双膦配体与HRh(CO)(PPh₃)₃组成的复合催化剂体系区域选择性没有多少变化，是与它们具有较小的咬角有关(BINAP85°，BDPX90°，BDNA104°)。上述4种HRh(CO)(PPh₃)₃ -双膦体系与HRh(CO)(PPh₃)₃-PPh₃体系相比较，催化活性较低，这可能是因为双膦的螯合配位作用使催化活性物种较稳定 。

Ge2H2 a π-ligand in organometallic chemistry

η² π-Complexes of Ge₂H₂ with the organometallic fragments V(PH₃)₂(I)(CO)₂, Cr(CO)₄, Co(PH₃)₂(Cl) and M(PH₃)₂ (M = Ni, Pd, Pt) have been studied at the B3LYP level using the SBKJC relativistic effective core potentials and their associated basis sets on metals and iodine, and the 6-31G(d) basis set on all other elements. The transition metal fragments of V, Cr, Co, Ni, Pd and Pt were chosen based on known alkyne compounds. All the complexes are local minima for both the HGeGeH and GeGeH₂ isomers of the Ge₂H₂ ligand. The complexes containing GeGeH₂ isomer as a ligand are lower in energy than those with the HGeGeH ligand (except in the V complex in which the difference is only 1.0 kcal/mol). There is a net charge transfer from ligand to metal in complexes V-Co and from metal to ligand in late transition metal complexes (Ni-Pt).     

Can Tetrylone Act in a Similar Fashion to Tetrylene in Ni(CO)2 Complexes? A Theoretical Study based on a Comparison using DFT Calculations

A comparison was made to investigate the structures and bonding of nickel complex that carry tetrylone and tetrylene ligands [(CO)₂Ni‐{E(PH₃)₂}] ( Ni1E ) and [(CO)₂Ni‐{NHE_Me}] ( Ni2E ) (E = C to Pb) using quantum chemical calculations at the BP86 level with various basis sets (SVP, TZVPP, TZ2P+). The nature of the Ni–E bonds was analyzed with charge‐ and energy decomposition methods. The structures of tetrylone complexes Ni1E exhibit an interesting trend with the ligands E(PH₃)₂ are bonded in a tilted orientation relative to the fragment Ni(CO)₂. In contrast, the calculated equilibrium structures of complexes Ni2E exhibit the NHE_Me ligands (E = C to Sn) bonded in a head‐on way to the Ni(CO)₂ fragment, while the bending angle gives the strongest side‐on bonded ligand NHPb_Me when E = Pb. The interesting trend of the bond dissociation energy (BDE) is observed for the tetrylone, which has the same trend BDEs compared with tetrylene complexes. The EDA‐NOCV results indicate that the tetrylone ligands {E(PH₃)₂} in complexes are similar to the tetrylene ligands NHE_Me as strong σ‐donors and weak π‐acceptors. The BDEs calculated for the Ni–E bonds in Ni1E and Ni2E show that the effect of bulky ligands may obscure the intrinsic Ni–E bond strength. The bonding analysis shows that the tetrylone ligands in Ni1E may act in a similar fashion to the tetrylene ligands in Ni2E . All complexes Ni1E and Ni2E are suitable targets for synthesis.     

A new rhodium complex with carbon dioxide

Bidentate amine N-oxides and phosphine oxides as ligands in rhodium(I) chemistry

Cationic rhodium(I) complexes of the general formula [Rh(COD)L₂]ClO₄ (L₂ = bipyO₂, phenO, dpeO₂ and dpmO₂) are prepared from the solvated species [Rh(COD)(Me₂CO)_x]⁺ and the appropriate ligand. Complexes of the type [Rh_n(COD)_n](ClO₄)_n (CNPyO = 4-cyano and 2-cyanopyridine N-oxide) are obtained similarly. Reaction of [RhCl(COD)]₂ with the potassium salt of 2-picolinic acid N-oxide leads to the neutral complex Rh(COOPyO)(COD). The mononuclear rhodium diolefinic compounds react with carbon monoxide to give complexes of the type [Rh(CO)₂L₂]ClO₄ and Rh(COOPyO)(CO)₂, which on treatment with triphenylphosphine yield monocarbonyl derivatives.The catalytic activities of the diolefin complexes and related derivatives in hydrogen-transfer catalytic reactions have been studied.     

Binding energies and bonding nature of MX(CO)(PH3)2(C60) (M = Rh or Ir; X = H or Cl): Theoretical study

IrH(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀), IrCl(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀), and RhH(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) were theoretically investigated with DFT and MP2 to MP4(SDQ) methods.  Because the DFT method considerably underestimates the binding energy compared to the MP2 method, their binding energies were evaluated by the ONIOM(MP4(SDQ):UFF) method.  The binding energy decreases in the order IrH(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) (59.4) > RhH(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) (48.2) > Pt(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) (47.2) > IrCl(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) (43.0), where in parentheses are the binding energy (in kcal/mol) calculated with the ONIOM(MP4(SDQ):UFF) method and that of Pt(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) was calculated with the same method and the same basis sets in our previous work.  This decreasing order is interpreted in terms of the d_π orbital energy, the d orbital expansion, the presence of the empty d_σ orbital, and the distortion energy of the metal fragment induced by the complexation; for instance, the d_π orbital is at higher energy and more expands in IrH(CO)(PH₃)₂ than in the Rh analogue, which leads to the larger binding energy of IrH(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) than that of the Rh analogue. IrCl(CO)(PH₃)₂ is less favorable than IrH(CO)(PH₃)₂ because of the lower energy of d_π orbital.  Although the π-back donation is stronger in IrCl(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) than in RhH(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀), the binding energy of IrCl(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) is smaller than that of RhH(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) due to the larger distortion energy of the IrCl-(CO)(PH₃)₂ moiety.  Although the d_π orbital of Pt(PH₃)₂ is at higher energy than that of IrH-(CO)(PH₃)₂, the binding energy of IrH(CO)(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) is larger than that of Pt(PH₃)₂(C₆₀) because the distortion energy is large and the d_σ orbital is doubly occupied in Pt(PH₃)₂(C₆₀).  It is also noted that these binding energies are much larger than those of the ethylene analogues like those of the Pt(0) complexes, which is reasonably interpreted in terms that the LUMO of C₆₀ is at much lower energy than those of ethylene.     

杂双核Rh(I)-Cr配合物催化乙烯氢甲酰化反应机理的理论研究

本文采用密度泛函理论研究了杂双核HRh(CO)(PH3)(m-PH2)2Cr(CO)4配合物催化乙烯氢甲酰化反应的机理。分别研究了结合机理和解离机理,并对两个机理进行比较。计算结果表明Cr(CO)4片段的引入并没有改变简单烯烃氢甲酰化反应的机理。解离机理占主导地位。羰基插入是整个反应的决速步骤,且在298.15 K和101.325 kPa下,其活化自由能为91.15 kJ/mol。醛的还原消除步骤是不可逆的。这些结果与以前的理论和实验研究结果一致。     

Heterobimetallic Complexes: Substitution Effects in the [Tetracarbonylrhodiumbis{μ‐(diphenylphosphino)}{μ‐(η:η2‐(4‐diphenylphosphino‐κP)‐2‐methyl‐oxobutyl)}molybdenum](Mo‐Rh) System

Syntheses of the array of heterobimetallic complexes [(OC)₃M(μ‐PPh₂)₂(μ‐O‐C(CHMe(CH₂)₂PPh₂)RhL], M = Cr, Mo, W, L = ^tBuNC, are described, extending the previous study of the counterpart array for L = CO. A single crystal X‐ray structure determination is reported for the M = Mo adduct, enabling comparison with its previously reported L = CO counterpart, for which an improved redetermination is also reported. In the present complex the ^tBuNC ligand is found to be much more weakly bound (Rh‐C 2.026(5) Å) than the carbonyl group it displaces (Rh‐C 1.945(2) Å) with concomitant minor impact on the remainder of the rhodium ambience.     

DFT studies of structural preference of coordinated ethylene in W(CO)3(PX3)2(CH2CH2) (X=H, CH3, F, Cl, Br, and I)

A set of phosphine complexes of the type W(CO)₃(PX₃)₂(CH₂CH₂) (X=H, CH₃, F, Cl, Br, and I) were investigated by density functional theory method (BP86) to examine the effect of the substituent X on the orientation of C-C vector of the ethylene ligand with respect to one of the metal-ligand bonds as well as the donation and the backdonation in the bonding ligands of phosphine and ethylene. When X=CH₃, H, F, and Cl, the ethylene C-C vector prefers to be coplanar with metal-phosphine bonds, while for the ethylene complexes containing PBr₃ and PI₃ ligands, the structural preference is coplanarity of the ethylene and the metal-carbonyl bonds. The molecular orbital calculations and natural bond orbital analysis were used to examine the structural consequences derived from these complexes. It can be concluded that the structural preferences in the complexes have a clear relation to electronic effects of phosphine ligands. Our calculations for halide phosphine complexes, particularly for PBr₃ and PI₃, allow us to conclude that in addition to electronic effects, steric factors can also affect the orientation of the ethylene ligand in complexes.     

Tricoordinate Organochromium(III) Complexes Supported by a Bulky Silylamido Ligand Produce Ultra‐High‐Molecular Weight Polyethylene in the Absence of Activators

Low‐coordinate organoCr(III) complexes supported by the silylamido ligand –N(SiMe₃)DIPP (DIPP = 2,6‐diisopropylphenyl) are ethylene polymerization catalyst precursors without the need of additional cocatalyst. The reaction of CrCl₃(THF)₃ with 3 or 2 equiv. of LiN(SiMe₃)DIPP yields either a four‐membered cyclometalated Cr complex or Cr[N(SiMe₃)DIPP]₂Cl, respectively, with no trace of Cr[N(SiMe₃)DIPP]₃. Addition of 1 equiv. of LiN(SiMe₃)DIPP to Cr[N(SiMe₃)DIPP]₂Cl also leads to the four‐membered metallacycle, which upon heating transforms to a new six‐membered Cr metallacycle, likely via a σ‐bond metathesis step. Cr[N(SiMe₃)DIPP]₂Cl can be readily converted to bis(amido)Cr(III) vinyl and alkyl complexes Cr[N(SiMe₃)DIPP]₂R (R = vinyl, Bn, and Me). All of these structurally characterized low‐coordinate Cr(III) complexes with a Cr–C bond initiate the polymerization of ethylene in the absence of activators or cocatalysts, producing ultra‐high‐molecular weight polyethylene.
