Mononuclear and Dinuclear Copper Complexes of Tridentate Redox-active Ligands with Tunable H-bonding Donors: Structure,Spectroscopy and H+/e− Reactivity

In this research article, we describe the synthesis and characterization of mononuclear and dinuclear Cu complexes bound by a family of tridentate redox-active ligands with tunable H-bonding donors. The mononuclear Cu-anion complexes were oxidized to the corresponding “high-valent” intermediates by oxidation of the redox-active ligand. These species were capable of oxidizing phenols with weak O−H bonds via H-atom abstraction. Thermodynamic analysis of the H-atom abstractions, which included reduction potential measurements, pK_a determination and kinetic studies, revealed that modification of the anion coordinated to the Cu and changes in the H-bonding donor did not lead to major differences in the reactivity of the “high-valent” CuY complexes (Y: hydroxide, phenolate and acetate), which indicated that the tridentate ligand scaffold acts as the H⁺ and e⁻ acceptor.

Ｒ_ＦＮ（Ｏ　）Ｒ_Ｆ和Ｒ_ＦＮＯ的Ｆ１１３溶液在室温下与一系列的对位取代苯甲醛反应，得到稳定的对位取代苯甲酰基全氟烷基氮氧自由基。由△ａ_Ｎ和△ａ_Ｆ~β的σ单参数相关以及△ａ_Ｎ与σ和σ　双参数相关表明：极性效应是影响氟烷基酰基氮氧自由基中氮原子自旋密度变化的主要因素，而自旋离域效应的影响是很小的。     

Bis(pentafluorophenyl) disulfide as a hydrogen abstractor and an electron acceptor from the resulting radical intermediate

The pentafluorobenzenethiyl radical is an efficient hydrogen abstractor from an activated methylene or methine group and bis(pentafluorophenyl) disulfide is an efficient electron acceptor from the resulting radical intermediate. Thus benzyl-OTBS ether was easily converted into the corresponding pinacol, and 2-phenyl-1,3-dioxanes are converted into the monobenzoates of diols.

Transition state geometry in radical abstraction reactions: comparison of interatomic distances in the intersecting parabolas and Morse curves models with quantum-chemical calculations

Interatomic distances in the transition state were estimated for the reactions of radical abstraction: H^· + H₂, H^· + HCl, H^· + CH₄, N^·H₂ + NH₃, HO^· + H₂O, HO₂ ^· + HOOH, and C^·H₃ + SiH₄. The calculation was performed by the quantum-chemical density functional method or coupled clusters method (QCH), as well as by the methods of intersecting parabolas (IPM) and Morse curves (IMM), using experimental data (activation energies and reaction enthalpies). The results of the latter two methods are close to the quantum-chemical calculation and differ only by the increment a: r(IPM or IMM) = a + r(QCH), where a = –4.5·10^–12 m for IPM and a = +1.9·10^–12 m for IMM.     

H原子与CH3NH2抽氢反应的动力学计算

用QC ISD(T)/6-311 G(3DF,3PD)/MP2/6-311G(D,P)方法研究了H原子与CH3NH2的抽氢反应过程。该反应包含两个反应通道:H分别从CH3基团(R1)和NH2(R2)基团上抽氢。R1势垒比R2势垒低3.42kJ/mol,表明R1是主反应通道。在从头算的基础上,用变分过渡态理论(CVT)加小曲率隧道效应(SCT)研究了各反应温度范围为200~4000K内的速率常数,所得结果与实验值符合的很好。动力计算表明,在所研究的温度范围内,变分效应对速率常数的计算影响不大,而在低温范围内,隧道效应起了很重要的作用。     

Methyl abstraction kinetics of CpFe(CO)2Me using the benzyl radical clock

The rate constant for the methyl abstraction reaction of CpFe(CO)₂Me has been measured with the benzyl radical clock as (1.1 ± 0.2) × 10⁵ M⁻¹ s⁻¹ at room temperature. Time-resolved Fourier-transform Infrared (FTIR) absorption spectroscopy pointed towards the formation of the CpFe(CO)₂ radical upon benzyl abstraction. The main stable product has been established by a linear scan of the reaction mixture as Cp₂Fe₂(CO)₄ produced by the dimerization of the CpFe(CO)₂ radicals. The transition state structure for the abstraction process was also found at UB3LYP/6-311+G* level of theory to contain a planar CH₃ group.     

Tricarbonyl(N,N-Disubstituted-Cyclohexadienecarboxamide)iron Complexes: Investigation of the Possible Intramolecular Interaction between the Iron Center and the Amide Substituent

Direct reaction of iron pentacarbonyl with 1-N,N-disubstituted-cyclohexa-2,5-dicnecarboxamide and 1-N,N-disubstituted-cyclohexa-1,3-dienecarboxamide mixture (in which the disubstkuted group is diethyl or diphenyl) gave the isomeric tricarbonyl iron complexes of 2-N,N-disubstituted-1,4-η-cyclohexa-1,3-dienccarboxamide (1), 1-N,N-disubslituted-1,4-η-cyclohexa-1,3-dienecarboxamide (2), and 5-N,N-disubstituted-1,4-η-cyclohexa-1,3-dienecarboxamide (3) and tricarbonyliron complexes of l-N,N-disubstituted-cyclohexenecarboxamide (4). These complexes were separated and characterized by IR, UV-VIS, ¹H NMR, elemental analysis, and mass spectra. Only 1 isomerized to give 2 under acidic conditions; both 1 and 2 undergo hydride abstraction with triphenylmethyl hexafluorophosphatc. Complexes 3, undergo neither isomcrization nor hydride abstraction. According to the spectral data, the possible interaction between carboxamide and iron carbonyl moiety was investigated. The irreversible electrochemical behavior of these complexes were studied.     

Kinetics of the Reaction of Abstracting Hydrogen from Ethylene by Hydrogen Atom

Hydrogen abstraction reaction, H C2H4 --H2 C2H2 was studied by using A initio SCF method. Ge-ometries were fully optimized at SCF level and energies were computed at STO-3G basis set for reactants and transition state. Vibrational analysis was performed thereupon. Finally, the rate constant calculations were carried out at different temperatures for all range of reaction temperature according to Eyring's sbwlute reaction rate theory. The calculated activation energy is 12. 68 kcal/mol, lower than observed value (H. S kcal/mol) by 1. 82 kcal/mol only. The agreement of the calculated rate constants with the experiments is satisfactory.     

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.
