Abstract: | Though metal-metal multiple bonds of the transition elements are redox active, their reactivity towards C-X multiple bonds (X = C, N, O, S) vary greatly depending principally on: 1. The coordination geometry of the metal. 2. The oxidation state of the metal and the electronic configuration of the M-M bond. 3. The nature of the attendant ligands. Specific examples of C-X multiple bond activation at dimolybdenum and ditungsten centers are presented that illustrate the importance of these factors. Evidence is presented to support the view that reductive cleavage of a C-X multiple bond can be considered to be equivalent to an intramolecular redox reaction within a M2CX] "cluster complex," for which the frontier orbital energies of the C-X and M-M multiple bonds are of paramount importance. Some applications of these C-X reductive cleavage reactions toward organic synthesis are described. |
