Chemo- and periselectivity in the addition of [OsO2(CH2)2] to ethylene: a theoretical study

Quantum chemical calculations by using density functional theory at the B3LYP level have been carried out to elucidate the reaction course for the addition of ethylene to [OsO2(CH2)2] (1). The calculations predict that the kinetically most favorable reaction proceeds with an activation barrier of 8.1 kcal mol(-1) via [3+2] addition across the O=Os=CH2 moiety. This reaction is -42.4 kcal mol(-1) exothermic. Alternatively, the [3+2] addition to the H2C=Os=CH2 fragment of 1 leads to the most stable addition product 4 (-72.7 kcal mol(-1)), yet this process has a higher activation barrier (13.0 kcal mol(-1)). The [3+2] addition to the O=Os=O fragment yielding 2 is kinetically (27.5 kcal mol(-1)) and thermodynamically (-7.0 kcal mol(-1)) the least favorable [3+2] reaction. The formal [2+2] addition to the Os=O and Os=CH2 double bonds proceeds by initial rearrangement of 1 to the metallaoxirane 1 a. The rearrangement 1-->1 a and the following [2+2] additions have significantly higher activation barriers (>30 kcal mol(-1)) than the [3+2] reactions. Another isomer of 1 is the dioxoosmacyclopropane 1 b, which is 56.2 kcal mol(-1) lower in energy than 1. The activation barrier for the 1-->1 b isomerization is 15.7 kcal mol(-1). The calculations predict that there are no energetically favorable addition reactions of ethylene with 1 b. The isomeric form 1 c containing a peroxo group is too high in energy to be relevant for the reaction course. The accuracy of the B3LYP results is corroborated by high level post-HF CCSD(T) calculations for a subset of species.     

Resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy of jet-cooled OsN: 520-418 nm

The optical transitions of supersonically cooled OsN have been investigated in the range from 19,200 to 23,900 cm(-1) using resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy. More than 20 vibronic bands were observed, 17 of which were rotationally resolved and analyzed. The ground state is confirmed to be (2)Δ(5/2), deriving from the 1σ(2) 2σ(2) 1π(4) 1δ(3) 3σ(2) electronic configuration. The X (2)Δ(5/2) ground state rotational constant for (192)Os(14)N was found to be B(0) = 0.491921(34) cm(-1), giving r(0) = 1.62042(6) ? (1σ error limits). The observed bands were grouped into three band systems with Ω' = 7/2 and four with Ω' = 3/2, corresponding to the three (2)Φ(7/2) and four (2)Π(3/2) states expected from the 1σ(2) 2σ(2) 1π(4) 1δ(3) 3σ(1) 2π(1) and 1σ(2) 2σ(2) 1π(4) 1δ(2) 3σ(2) 2π(1) electronic configurations. In addition, two interacting upper states with Ω' = 5/2 were observed, one of which is thought to correspond to a 1σ(2) 2σ(2) 1π(3) 1δ(3) 3σ(2) 2π(1), (2)Δ(5/2) state. Spectroscopic constants are reported for all of the observed states, and comparisons to related molecules are made. The ionization energy of OsN is estimated as IE(OsN) = 8.80 ± 0.06 eV.     

1,4-shifts in a dinuclear Ni(I) biarylyl complex: a mechanistic study of C-H bond activation by monovalent nickel

The known aryne complex (PEt3)2Ni(eta2-C6H2-4,5-F2) (1a) reacts with a catalytic amount of Br2Ni(PEt3)2 over 1% Na/Hg to afford the dinuclear Ni(I) biarylyl complex [(PEt3)2Ni]2(mu-eta1:eta1-3,4-F2C6H2-3',4'-F2C6H2) (2a), which results from a combination of C-C bond formation and C-H bond rearrangement. The dinuclear benzyne [(PEt3)2Ni]2(mu-eta2:eta2-C6H2-4,5-F2) (3) was obtained by the reaction of 1a with a stoichiometric amount of Br2Ni(PEt3)2 over excess 1% Na/Hg, and 3 was found to catalyze the conversion of 1a to 2a. The reaction of 1a with B(C6F5)3 produced the trinuclear complex (PEt3)3Ni3(mu3:eta1:eta1:eta2-4,5-F2C6H2)(mu3:eta1:eta1:eta2-4,5-F2C6H2-4',5'-F2C6H2) (6). The addition of PEt3 to 6 produced 1 equiv of 1a and 1 equiv of [(PEt3)2Ni]2(mu-eta1:eta1-4,5-F2C6H2-4',5'-F2C6H2) (7a). Both 6 and 7a were identified as intermediates in the conversion of 1a to 2a. The analogue [(PEt3)(PMe3)Ni]2(mu-eta1:eta1-4,5-F2C6H2-4',5'-F2C6H2) (7b) was prepared by the addition of PMe3 to 6 and was structurally characterized. NMR spectroscopic evidence identified the additional asymmetric biarylyl [(PEt3)2Ni]2(mu-eta1:eta1-4,5-F2C6H2-3',4'-F2C6H2) (8a) during the conversion of 1a to 2a. The initial observation of 2 equiv of 8a for every equivalent of 2a produced from solutions of 7a suggests that 8a and 2a are formed from a common intermediate. A crossover labeling experiment shows that the C-H bond rearrangement steps in the conversion of 1a to 2a occur with the intermolecular scrambling of hydrogen and deuterium labels. The evidence collected suggests that Ni(I) complexes are capable of activating aromatic C-H bonds.     

Li3Al和Li2B2的稳定性和垂直激发态光谱

Peptide recognition: encapsulation and alpha-helical folding of a nine-residue peptide within a hydrophobic dimeric capsule of a bowl-shaped host

A dimeric capsule of coordination bowl 1 encapsulated a nine-residue peptide (Trp-Ala-Glu-Ala-Ala-Ala-Glu-Ala-Trp; 2) within the large hydrophobic cavity in water, and stabilized the alpha-helical conformation of bound 2. An NMR titration experiment revealed that monomeric bowl 1 recognized two Trp residues at the both terminals of 2 through 1/2 = 1:1 to 2:1 complexation. The 1:1 and 2:1 species exist in equilibrium even in the presence of excess 1. It was found that the formation of the 2:1 complex, in which two bowls of 1 wrapped the whole of 2, became dominant by the addition of NaNO3 due to the fact that the enhanced ion strength increased the hydrophobic interaction between Trp residues and the cavity of 1. The alpha-helical conformation of 2 within the dimeric capsule of 1 was elucidated from detailed NOESY analysis.

在ab initio DZP水平上, 用能量梯度法对Li~3Al的三种几何构型进行了优化, 并对其中两个能量较低的构型用单、双激发组态相互作用(CISD)进行了垂直跃迁能和振子强度计算, 结果表明: Li~3Al(C~2~v)中存在着三个强度较大的跃迁, 分别是从基态跃迁到1^1B~1, 2^1B~1, 5^1A~1态。Li~3Al(D~3~h)中存在着四个强度较大的跃迁, 分别是从基态跃迁到1^1B~2, 2^1A~1, 3^1B~2, 3^1A~1态。这些强度较大的跃迁均为粒子穴跃迁。     

Flexible ligands and structural diversity: isomerism in Cd(NO3)2 coordination polymers

The ligands 1,4-bis(2-pyridylmethylsulfanylmethyl)benzene (L1) and 2,5-bis(2-pyridylmethylsulfanylmethyl)pyrazine (L2) were treated with Cd(NO3)2.4H2O in metal-to-ligand ratios of 1:1 and 2:1, respectively; L2 was also treated with CdCl2.2.5H2O in a 2:1 ratio. All products were found to be coordination polymers. The crystal structures of {[Cd(L1)(NO3)2].CH2Cl2}infinity (1a), {[Cd(L1)(NO3)2].4/3CH3CN}infinity (1b), {[Cd2(L2)(NO3)4].2CH3CN}infinity (2.2CH3CN), and {[Cd2(L2)Cl4].2CH2Cl2}infinity (3.2CH2Cl2) were determined. Compounds 1a and 1b were found to be conformational supramolecular isomers. The structure of 1b displayed topological isomerism with two isomeric polymer chains, 1b(1) and 1b(2), in the one crystal forming a single supramolecular array. The structure of 2.2CH(3)CN showed Cd2(L2) units linked together by nitrates bridging between the Cd(II) centers in a mode previously not seen in Cd(II) compounds. The overall structure of 3.2CH2Cl2 was found to be similar to that of 2.2CH3CN despite the presence of different anions and solvent molecules. Powder X-ray diffraction was used to investigate the nature of bulk preparations of compounds 1-3.     

Magnetic face-to-face interaction and electrocommunication in chromium sandwich compounds

The reaction of [{(C5Me5)CrCl2}2] with [2.2](1,4)cyclophane gave [(C5Me5)Cr{[2.2](1,4)cyclophane}] (1) and [(C5Me5)Cr{[2.2](1,4)cyclophane}Cr(C5Me5)] (2), depending on the reaction conditions. X-ray structure analysis showed 2 to be a ministack which in turn is stacked in the lattice. The chromium atoms are 6.035 A apart, and the distortion of the benzene rings to boat-shaped moieties is less pronounced than in parent [2.2](1,4)cyclophane. The NMR and EPR spectra were consistent with a S=1/2 ground state for 1 and with two interacting S=1/2 centers in 2. Spin density was found in the ligand pi systems, where its sign was negative when the pi system was adjacent to chromium, while on the nonbonded benzene moiety of 1 it was positive. Cyclic voltammograms showed reductions to 1- and 2(2-), as well as oxidations to 1+, 2+, and 2(2+) which were quasireversible, whereas oxidations to 1(2+) and 2(3+) were irreversible. Interaction between the metal ions was revealed by a 260 mV separation of the redox waves belonging to 2+, and 2(2+). Both cations were isolated as [B(C6H5)4]- salts, which in solution decomposed to [2.2](1,4)cyclophane and [(C5Me5)Cr{(eta6-C6H5)B(C6H5)3}] (3). The 1H and 13C NMR spectra of 3 were in accordance with an S=1 ground state. Solid-state magnetic measurements of the dimetallic compounds showed antiferromagnetic interaction with J=-122 cm-1 for 2, J=-31 cm-1 for 2+ (ground state S=1/2), and J=-23.5 cm-1 for 2(2+) (with H=-JS1S2). The decrease of J in the series 2, 2+, and 2(2+) was traced to the number of unpaired electrons and, for the mixed-valent cation 2+, to additional double exchange.

Low Spin State Dinuclear Fe~Ⅲ, Ni~Ⅱ and Cu~Ⅱ Complexes Supported by 1-Amino-2-indanol Schiff Base Derivatives

Four complexes of compositions [Fe_2(L~1)_2](1), [Ni_2(L~1)_2](2), [Ni_2(L~2)_2](3) and [Cu_2(L~2)_2](4)(H_2L~1 = 1-(((2-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1 H-inden-1-yl)imino)methyl)naphthalen-2-ol, H_2L~2 = 4-((2-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1 H-inden-1-yl)imino)pentan-2-one) were synthesized under solvothermal conditions. The structures of 1~4 were characterized by X-ray single-crystal diffraction analysis. The magnetic properties of these four complexes are investigated. The dc magnetic measurements indicate that the metal ions of 1, 2 and 3 are in the low spin state, revealing the strong ligand field character of 1-amino-2-indanol. This work provides an effective approach to coordination complexes possessing low spin state metal centers.

Electrocatalytic proton reduction by phosphido-bridged diiron carbonyl compounds: distant relations to the H-cluster?

Intermediates formed during reduction of Fe(2)(mu-PPh(2))(2)(CO)(6) (1) in the presence of protons have been identified by spectroelectrochemical, continuous-flow, and interrupted-flow techniques. The mechanism for electrocatalytic proton reduction suggested by these observations yields digital simulation of the voltammetry in close agreement with measurements conducted in THF over a range of acid concentrations. The mechanism for electrocatalytic proton reduction involves initial formation of the dianion, 1(2-), which is doubly protonated prior to further reduction and dihydrogen elimination. The IR spectra of the singly and doubly protonated forms of 1(2-) indicate structures corresponding to [FeH(CO)(3)(mu-PPh(2))(2)Fe(CO)(3)](-) (1H-) and FeH(CO)(3)(mu-PPh(2))(2)FeH(CO)(3) (1H(2)). The thiolato and dithiolato analogues of 1 exhibit electrocatalytic proton reduction associated with the two-electron reduction step, and this implies that the corresponding two-electron reduced doubly protonated species is unstable with respect to dihydrogen elimination. The stability of 1H(2) is most likely to be due to the weak interactions between the iron centers of the flattened [2Fe2P] core. Whereas 1H(2) is stable in the absence of a reducing potential, 1H- rearranges rapidly to a product previously described as [Fe(2)(mu-PPh(2))(mu-CO)(PHPh(2))(CO)(5)](-) (1H-(W)). Another protonation product of 1(2-), previously formulated as [Fe(2)(mu-PPh(2))(2)(mu-CO)H(CO)(5)](-), has been reformulated as [Fe(2)(mu-PPh(2))(mu-CO)(CO)(6)](-) (2) on the basis of a range of spectroscopic measurements. Solution EXAFS measurements of 1, 1(2-), 1H-(W), and 2 are reported, and these yield model-independent Fe-Fe distances of 2.61 (1), 3.58 (1(2-)), 2.58 (1H-(W)), and 2.59 A (2). The presence of an Fe-Fe bond for both 1H-(W) and 2 is a key aspect of the proposed structures, and this strongly supports the deductions based on spectroscopic evidence. The fits of the solution EXAFS to different structural models give statistics in agreement with the proposed structures.     

1:1 complexes of dimethylthio- and ethylenedithio-tetrathiafulvalenothioquinone-1,3-dithiolemethides with CuBr2 as a new type of pi/d molecular system

The reaction of dimethylthio- (1) and ethylenedithio-tetrathiafulvalenothioquinone-1,3-dithiolemethides (2) with CuBr2 gave 1:1 complexes between the donors and CuBr2, 1.CuBr2 and 2.CuBr2, in which the Cu atom of CuBr2 binds to the thiocarbonyl S atom in 1 and 2. The electrical conductivity (sigma) of 1.CuBr2 at room temperature was ca. 10(-5) S cm-1, while a comparatively high value of 4.0 S cm-1 was obtained for 2.CuBr2, whose temperature dependence of sigma exhibited, however, semiconducting behavior with a very small activation energy of 0.18 eV. The observed paramagnetic susceptibilities (chi p's) of the Cu complexes were composed of both a component due to the localized Cu spins obeying the Curie-Weiss law and a temperature-independent chi p due to the conducting pi electrons on the 1- or 2-stacked columns. From the Curie constants obtained, the degrees of intramolecular electron transfer from 1 and 2 to CuBr2 moieties were estimated at ca. 90% and 60%, respectively. The small, negative Weiss temperature suggest very weak antiferromagnetic interactions among the Cu spins on the CuBr2 moieties.

Dissociation of the OCS+ ion in low-lying electronic states studied using multiconfiguration second-order perturbation theory

Complete active space self-consistent-field (CASSCF) and multiconfiguration second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2) calculations with atomic natural orbital basis sets were performed to investigate the S-loss direct dissociation of the 1 2Pi(X 2Pi), 2 2Pi(A 2Pi), 1 2Sigma+(B 2Sigma+), 1 4Sigma-, 1 2Sigma-, and 1 2Delta states of the OCS+ ion and the predissociations of the 1 2Pi, 2 2Pi, and 1 2Sigma+ states. Our calculations indicate that the S-loss dissociation products of the OCS(+) ion in the six states are the ground-state CO molecule plus the S+ ion in different electronic states. The CASPT2//CASSCF potential energy curves were calculated for the S-loss dissociation from the six states. The calculations indicate that the dissociation of the 1 4Sigma- state leads to the CO + S+ (4Su) products representing the first dissociation limit; the dissociations of the 1 2Pi, 1 2Sigma-, and 1 2Delta states lead to the CO + S+(2Du) products representing the second dissociation limit; and the dissociations of the 2 2Pi and 1 2Sigma+ states lead to the CO + S+(2Pu) products representing the third dissociation limit. Seams of the 1 2Pi-1 4Sigma-, 2 2Pi-1 4Sigma-, 2 2Pi-1 2Sigma-, 2 2Pi-1 2Delta, and 1 2Sigma(+)-1 4Sigma- potential energy surface intersections were calculated at the CASPT2 level, and the minima along the seams were located. The calculations indicate that within the experimental energy range (15.07-16.0 eV) the 2 2Pi(A 2Pi) state can be predissociated by 1 4Sigma- forming the S+(4Su) ion and can undergo internal conversion to 1 2Pi followed by the direct dissociation of 1 2Pi forming S+(2Du) and that within the experimental energy range (16.04-16.54 eV) the 1 2Sigma+(B 2Sigma+) state can be predissociated by 1 4Sigma- forming the S+(4Su) ion and can undergo internal conversion to 2 2Pi followed by the predissociation of 2 2Pi by 1 2Sigma- and 1 2Delta forming the S+(2Du) ion. These indications are in line with the experimental fact that both the 4Su and 2Du states of the S+ ion can be formed from the 2 2Pi and 1 2Sigma+ states of the OCS+ ion.     

The 1 (2)A(1), 1 (2)B(2), and 1 (2)A(2) states of the SO(2) (+) ion studied using multiconfiguration second-order perturbation theory

The 1 (2)A(1), 1 (2)B(2), and 1 (2)A(2) electronic states of the SO(2) (+) ion have been studied using multiconfiguration second-order perturbation theory (CASPT2) and two contracted atomic natural orbital basis sets, S[6s4p3d1f]/O[5s3p2d1f] (ANO-L) and S[4s3p2d]/O[3s2p1d] (ANO-S), and the three states were considered to correspond to the observed X, B, and A states, respectively, in the previous experimental and theoretical studies. Based on the CASPT2/ANO-L adiabatic excitation energy calculations, the X, A, and B states of SO(2) (+) are assigned to 1 (2)A(1), 1 (2)B(2), and 1 (2)A(2), respectively, and our assignments of the A and B states are contrary to the previous assignments (A to (2)A(2) and B to (2)B(2)). The CASPT2/ANO-L energetic calculations also indicate that the 1 (2)A(1), 1 (2)B(2), and 1 (2)A(2) states are, respectively, the ground, first excited, and second excited states at the ground-state (1 (2)A(1)) geometry of the ion and at the geometry of the ground-state SO(2) molecule. Based on the CASPT2/ANO-L results for the geometries, we realize that the experimental geometries (determined by assuming the bond lengths to be the same as the neutral ground state of SO(2)) were not accurate. The CASPT2/ANO-S calculations for the potential energy curves as functions of the OSO angle confirm that the 1 (2)B(2) and 1 (2)A(2) states are the results of the Renner-Teller effect in the degenerate (2)Pi(g) state at the linear geometry, and it is clearly shown that the 1 (2)B(2) curve, as the lower component of the Renner splitting, lies below the 1 (2)A(2) curve. The UB3LYP/cc-pVTZ adiabatic excitation energy calculations support the assignments (A to (2)B(2) and B to (2)A(2)) based on the CASPT2/ANO-L calculations.     

Pseudoheptacoordination and pseudohexacoordination in tris(2-N,N-dimethylbenzylamino)phosphane

The phosphane (C(6)H(4)-2-CH(2)NMe(2))(3)P (1) upon recrystallization from various solvents yielded the structurally different forms 1A, 1C, 1B(1), and 1B(2). Phosphane oxide (C(6)H(4)-2-CH(2)NOMe(2))(3)PO (2) was obtained from 1 by oxidation with hydrogen peroxide. X-ray analysis provided molecular structures for 1A, 1B(1), 1B(2), and 2. Phosphanes 1A and 1B(1) have pseudohexacoordinate frameworks as a result of the formation of two P-N donor interactions, 1B(2) has a pseudoheptacoordinate geometry due to the presence of three P-N interactions, and 2 resides in a tetrahedral geometry. The presence of the flexible dimethylaminobenzyl group in 1A, 1C, 1B(1), and 1B(2) is reasoned to be responsible for this variation in coordination geometry. Phosphane oxide 2 has very strong donor oxygen atoms from N-oxide groups but they are involved in competition with the presence of hydrogen bonding, which results in the lack of donor coordination. High-resolution (1)H, (13)C, and (31)P NMR measurements are also reported. The results provide evidence for the low-energy threshold required to allow hypercoordinated phosphorus to alter coordination geometry.

1H-1H dipolar couplings provide a unique probe of RNA backbone structure

A NMR method is described that permits simultaneous measurement of the geminal 2JH1H2 + 2DH1H2 splitting and the sum of the 1JCH1 + 1DCH1 + 1JCH2 + 1DCH2 couplings for methylene groups, where 2DH1H2 and 1DCH are residual dipolar couplings, occurring when molecules are weakly oriented relative to the magnetic field. By suppressing either the upfield or downfield half of the 1H-1H geminal doublet, the experiment yields improved resolution relative to regular two-dimensional 1H-13C correlation spectra, making it applicable to systems of considerable complexity. The method is demonstrated for measurement of all 2DH5'H5' couplings in a 24-nucleotide 13C-enriched RNA stem loop structure, weakly aligned in liquid crystalline Pf1. The method is equally applicable to methylene groups in 13C-labeled proteins and to natural abundance samples of smaller molecules.
