Isomerism of [FeMM′(μ3-Q)(CO)7CpCp′] heterometallic clusters (Q = Se, Te; M, M′ = Mo, W; Cp = η5-C5H5; Cp′ = Cp, η5-C5(CH3)5) in solids

The crystal structures of three cluster compounds: [(µ-H)Fe₂Mo(µ₃-Te)(CO)₈Cp*], [FeMo₂(µ₃-Te)(CO)_7x Cp*₂], and [FeMoW(µ₃-Te)(CO)₇CpCp*], where Cp = ⁵-C₅H₅, Cp* = ⁵-C₅ (CH₃)₅, have been investigated. In the cluster with a tetrahedral {FeMo₂Te} core, one can observe positional isomerism of the carbonyl and cyclopentadienyl ligands with respect to the plane through the Fe and Te atoms and the center of the Mo₂bond, resulting in two mirror isomers in the racemic crystal. In the cluster with the {FeMoWTe} core, additional chirality causes the formation of four diastereoisomers. Earlier, the structure of the [FeMoW(µ₃-Se)(CO)₇Cp] cluster with Mo and W atoms coordinated to identical Cp-ligands has been structurally defined. In this crystal, statistical disordering of Mo and W over the metal positions is observed. In the [FeMo(Cp*)W(Cp)(µ₃-Te)(CO)₇] cluster studied here, the Mo and W atoms are coordinated to different cyclopentadienyl ligands. Due to this, two of four diastereoisomers were isolated as ordered racemic crystals; the other two are nonexistent for steric reasons.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by A. V. Virovets, S. N.

Nitrogen fixation under mild ambient conditions: part I--the initial dissociation/association step at molybdenum triamidoamine complexes

In several recent studies Schrock and collaborators demonstrated for the first time how molecular dinitrogen can be catalytically transformed under mild and ambient conditions to ammonia by a molybdenum triamidoamine complex. In this work, we investigate the geometrical and electronic structures involved in this process of dinitrogen activation with quantum chemical methods. Density functional theory (DFT) has been employed to calculate the coordination energies of ammonia and dinitrogen relevant for the dissociation/association step in which ammonia is substituted by dinitrogen. In the DFT calculations the triamidoamine chelate ligand has been modeled by a systematic hierarchy of increasingly complex substituents at the amide nitrogen atoms. The most complex ligand considered is an experimentally known ligand with an HMT = 3,5-(2,4,6-Me3C6H2)2C6H3 substituent. Several assumptions by Schrock and collaborators on key reaction steps are confirmed by our calculations. Additional information is provided on many species not yet observed experimentally. Particular attention is paid to the role of the charge of the complexes. The investigation demonstrates that dinitrogen coordination is enhanced for the negatively charged metal fragment, that is, coordination is more favorable for the anionic metal fragment than for the neutral species. Coordination of N2 is least favorable for the cationic metal fragment. Furthermore, ammonia abstraction from the cationic complex is energetically unfavorable, while NH3 abstraction is less difficult from the neutral and easily feasible from the anionic low-spin complex.     

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of cis-Bis(3-hydroxy2-ethyl-4-pyranonato)dioxomolybdenum(Ⅵ)

1 INTRODUCTION 3-Hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyranone (maltol) and 3-hydroxy-2-ethyl-4-pyranone (ethylmaltol) are nontoxic compounds that have been applied to bio- inorganic chemistry over several decades[1, 2]. Their iron(III) complexes are relevant to the control of iron levels in the human body. Such complexes have been assessed for the amelioration of anaemia[3] and their respective ligands have been tested for the removal of excess burdens of iron in diseases such as siderosis, haemochroma…

Carbonyldinitrosyltris(fluorosulfato)tungstate(II) and ‐Molybdate(II) Anions: Synthesis,Spectroscopy, and Density Functional Theory Calculations

Carbonyldinitrosyltris(fluorosulfato)tungstate(II) and ‐molybdate‐(II) anions, [fac‐M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo), which are novel weakly coordinating anions that contain a metal carbonyl/nitrosyl moiety, have been generated in fluorosulfonic acid and completely characterized by multinuclear NMR, IR, and Raman spectroscopy as well as ESI mass spectrometry. ESI MS measurements performed for the first time on a superacidic solution system unambiguously reveal the formation of the monoanionic, mononuclear W and Mo complexes formulated as [M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo). Multinuclear NMR spectroscopic studies at natural abundance and ¹³C and ¹⁵N enrichment clearly indicate the presence of one CO ligand, two equivalent NO ligands, and two types of nonequivalent SO₃F^? groups in a 2:1 ratio. The IR and Raman spectra reveal that the two equivalent NO ligands have a cis conformation, thus indicating a fac structure. Density functional calculations at the B3LYP level of theory predict that these anions have a singlet ground state (¹A′) with a C_s symmetry along with C–O and N–O vibrational frequencies that are in agreement with the experimental observations. Mulliken population analysis shows that the monovalent negative charge is dispersed on the bulky sphere, the surface of which is covered by all the negatively charged O and F atoms with charge densities much lower than SO₃F^?, suggesting that [fac‐M(CO)(NO)₂(SO₃F)₃]^? (M=W, Mo) are weakly nucleophilic and poorly coordinating anions.     

Oxidative Reactions of the MoIV Dialkyl Complex [{(3‐CF3C6H4NCH2CH2)2NMe}Mo(CH2SiMe3)2]

The structure of [(CF₃N₂NMe)Mo(CH₂SiMe₃)₂] (in which (CF₃N₂NMe)^2? is [(3‐CF₃C₆H₄NCH₂CH₂)₂NMe]^2?) is approximately trigonal bipyramidal with one axial and one equatorial alkyl ligand. Heating of solutions of [(CF₃N₂NMe)Mo(CH₂SiMe₃)₂] in [D₆]benzene in the presence of five equivalents of 2‐butyne led to diamagnetic [(CF₃N₂NMe)Mo(CHSiMe₃)(η²‐MeC?CMe)], whose structure is approximately square pyramidal with the alkyne occupying the axial site. Addition of one equivalent of cyclohexene sulfide to [(CF₃N₂NMe)Mo(CH₂SiMe₃)₂] at room temperature produced the diamagnetic, dimeric molybdenum(IV) sulfido complex, [{(CF₃N₂NMe)MoS}₂]. This complex is composed of two approximately trigonal bipyramidal centers, each containing one axial and one equatorial sulfur atom. Oxidation of [(CF₃N₂NMe)Mo(CH₂SiMe₃)₂] with hexachloroethane resulted in formation of tetramethylsilane, HCl, and the sparingly soluble, red alkylidyne complex, [{(CF₃N₂NMe)Mo(CSiMe₃)Cl}₂]. This complex forms a dimer through bridging chlorides. The oxidation reactions of [(CF₃N₂NMe)Mo(CH₂SiMe₃)₂] with 2‐butyne, cyclohexene sulfide, or C₂Cl₆ are all proposed to proceed by α‐hydrogen abstraction in the Mo^VI species to yield (initially) the Mo?CHSiMe₃ species and tetramethylsilane.     

Mo/HZSM-5催化剂上甲烷无氧芳构化反应——HZSM-5分子筛脱铝的影响

采用两种不同的脱铝方法对HZSM-5分子筛进行了预处理,并利用MAS NMR和吸附吡啶的FT-IR对分子筛的结构和酸性质进行了表征,考察了分子筛的脱铝程度对Mo基催化剂上甲烷芳构化反应性能的影响.结果表明,HZSM-5分子筛的酸性过强或B酸量不足,均会导致催化剂严重积炭,但积炭成因不同.母体HZSM-5分子筛上的强B酸中心的存在可促使催化剂上反应中间物种深度脱氢,造成催化剂在反应过程中严重积炭.经水热处理的HZSM-5分子筛,骨架铝脱出严重,造成B酸活性中心不足以及部分微孔阻塞,不利于C2中间物种芳构化,导致芳烃选择性显著降低.经高温N2处理的HZSM-5分子筛,骨架铝脱出相对缓和,在消除母体分子筛上强B酸中心的同时,保留了较多的弱B酸中心,既可满足C2中间物种芳构化反应的需要,又可有效抑制催化剂积炭,导致甲烷芳构化反应性能显著改善.

采用了研磨后超声和离心分离方法制备了二硫化钼纳米片,通过原子力显微镜(AFM)和扫描电子显微镜(SEM)对不同离心速度分离的二硫化钼纳米片进行了表征。使用循环伏安法(CV)和差分脉冲伏安法(DPV)在磺胺甲恶唑溶液中对二硫化钼纳米片修饰的玻碳电极进行了电化学行为研究。结果显示,磺胺甲恶唑在二硫化钼修饰电极的循环伏安图上有一对氧化还原峰。其峰电流值与扫描速度的平方根成正比,是扩散控制过程。DPV扫描结果显示,磺胺甲恶唑的峰电流与其浓度之间存在着明显的线性关系。研磨超声方法制备出的二硫化钼纳米片层材料在电极上能够加速电子的转移和传输,从而有效提高峰电流值,为进一步研制准确测定磺胺甲恶唑电化学传感器提供了一种可选择的材料和电化学分析方法。
