Theoretical Investigation on the Reactions of H with (CH3)4‐nSiHn (n = 1–4)

The abstractions of H with (CH₃)_4‐nSiH_n (n = 1–4) have been investigated at high levels of ab initio molecule orbital theory. Geometries have been optimized at the MP‐2 level with 6–31G(d) basis set, and G2MP2 level has been used for the final energy calculations. Theoretical analysis provided conclusive evidence that the main process occurring in each case is the abstraction of H from the Si? H bond leading to the formation of the H₂ and silyl radicals; the abstraction of H from C? H bond has higher barrier and is difficult to react in each case. The kinetics of the title reactions have been calculated with variational transition state theory over the temperature range 200–1000 K, and the theoretical rate constants match well with the experimental values.     

Alternativ-Liganden. XXXII [1]. Neue Tetraphosphan-Nickelkomplexe mit Tripod-Liganden des Typs XM′ (OCH2PMe2)n(CH2CH2PR2)3 – n (M′ = Si,Ge; n = 0 – 3)

Alternative Ligands. XXXII [1]. Novel Tetraphosphane Nickel Complexes with Tripod-Ligands of the Type XM′(OCH₂PMe₂)_n(CH₂CH₂PR₂)_{3 – n} (M′ = Si, Ge; n = 0 – 3) Tripod Ligands of the type XM′(OCH₂PMe₂)_n(CH₂CH₂PMe_{23 – n} (M′ = Si, Ge; n = 0 – 3) ( 1 – 6 , Table 1) have been used together with PPh₃ or PMe₃ for the preparation of novel tetraphosphane complexes of Nickel. The representatives LNiPPh₃ ( 7 – 12 ) are obtained by reaction of Ni(COD)₂ (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) with the corresponding ligands and PPh₃ in toluene in moderate yields. The synthesis of the derivatives LNiPMe₃ ( 13 – 18 ) is partly ( 16 – 18 ) accomplished in analogy to the Ph₃P-complexes; compounds 13 – 16 are obtained in higher yields by reaction of Ni(PMe₃)₄ with the respective ligand. As a rule, 13 – 18 cannot be separated from by-products. The trinuclear complex FSi(CH₂CH₂PMe₂)₃[Ni(PMe₂CH₂CH₂)₃SiF]₃ ( 19 ) is formed together with 18 in the reaction of Ni(COD)₂ with 6 and PMe₃. The new compounds have been characterized (if possible) by analytical (C, H), but in general by spectroscopic investigations (IR; ¹H-, ¹³C-, ¹⁹F-, ³¹P-NMR; MS). A weak, but significant Ni → Si interaction through the cage is indicated by the following results: (i) Large low-field shifts δδ_F of 35.2 ppm ( 12 ), 38.3 ppm ( 18 ) and 37.7 ppm ( 19 ); (ii) ⁶J(PF) coupling constants [or ³J(PNiSiF) through the cage] of 6.0 Hz ( 12 ) and 7.6 Hz ( 18 ) together with a low-field shift δδ_Si of 12.8 ppm ( 12 ); (iii) NiSi distances of 3.95 Å in 7 and 3.92 Å in 12 , accompanied by a compression of the cage along the Ni ··· Si axis. An additional release from the high charge density on Ni results from π-backbonding to the phosphane ligands.     

Triphenylphosphan-Nickel(0)-Komplexe mit Isocyanid-Liganden — [(RNC)nNi(PPh3)4–n] (n = 1–3)

Triphenylphosphane Nickel(0) Complexes with Isocyanide Ligands — [(RNC)_nNi(PPh₃)_4–n] (n = 1–3) Synthesis and properties of the isocyanide triphenylphosphane nickel(0) complexes [(RNC)Ni(PPh₃)₃], [(RNC)₂Ni(PPh₃)₂] and [(RNC)₃Ni(PPh₃)] (R = ^tBu, Cy, PhCH₂, p-TosCH₂) are described. I.r. and ³¹P n.m.r. spectra were recorded and the X-ray crystal structure of [(PhCH₂NC)₂Ni(PPh₃)₂] was determined.     

Alternativ-Liganden. XXX [1] Neue Tripod-Liganden XM' (OCH2PMe2)n(CH2CH2PMe2)3−n (M' = Si; Ge; n = 0–3) für Käfigstrukturen

Alternative Ligands. XXX Novel Tripod Ligands XM' (OCH₂PMe₂)_n(CH₂CH₂PMe₂)_3?n (M' = Si, Ge; n = 0–3) for Cage Structures Attempts to prepare new tripod ligands XSi(OCH₂PMe₂)₃ [X = CF₃ ( 15 ), C₆F₅ ( 16 ), NMe₂ ( 17 ), Cl ( 18 ), F ( 19 ), H ( 20 ), OEt ( 21 ), OMe ( 22 )] prove to be unsuccessful in spite of using different pathways, because the groups X undergo following reactions giving insoluble solids (polyadducts) or form inseparable mixtures, e. g. (RO)_nSi(OCH₂PMe₂)_4?n (R = Me, Et). In many cases Si(OCH₂PMe₂)₄ ( 13 ) can be isolated from the reaction mixture. The syntheses of the ligands XSi(CH₂CH₂PMe₂)₃ [X = NMe₂ ( 6 ), Cl ( 7 ), F ( 8 ), OMe ( 9 ), Vi ( 12 )], Si(OCH₂PMe₂)₄ ( 13 ) und Me₃GeOCH₂PMe₂ ( 14 ) are successful. The compounds MeSi(OCH₂PMe₂)₂CH₂CH₂NMe₂ ( 10 ) and MeSi(OCH₂PMe₂)₂CH₂CH₂P(CF₃)₂ ( 11 ) with different donor groups are obtained in good yields. The preparative program includes the synthesis of the known representatives MeSi(OCH₂PMe₃)₃ ( 1 ), MeSi(OCH₂PMe₂)₂CH₂CH₂PMe₂ ( 2 ), MeSi(OCH₂PMe₂)(CH₂CH₂PMe₂)₂ ( 3 ), MeSi(CH₂CH₂PMe₂)₃ ( 4 ) and MeGe(OCH₂PMe₂)₃ ( 5 ). Important preparative steps are the substitution of M'Cl (M' = Si, Ge) by Me₂PCH₂O groups and the photochemically induced or base catalyzed addition of HNMe₂, HPMe₂ or HP(CF₃)₂ to SiVi functions. The novel compounds are characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (IR, NMR, MS) investigations.     

Alternativ-Liganden. XXXI. Nickelcarbonylkomplexe mit Tripod-Liganden des Typs XM′(OCH2PMe2)n(CH2CH2PR2)3–n (M′ = Si,Ge; n = 0–3)

Alternative Ligands. XXXI. Nickelcarbonyl Complexes of Tripod Ligands of the Type XM′(OCH₂PMe₂)_n(CH₂CH₂PR₂)_3–n (M′ = Si, Ge; n = 0–3) The coordinating properties of the tripod ligands RM′(OCH₂PMe₂)_n(CH₂CH₂PMe₂)_3–n (M′ = Si, Ge) ( 1–7 ), MeSi(OCH₂PMe₂)₂CH₂CH₂P(CF₃)₂ ( 8 ), MeSi(OCH₂PMe₂)₂CH₂CH₂NMe₂( 10 ) as well as of the tetradentate representative Si(OCH₂PMe₂)₄ ( 9 ) have been investigated by the preparation of the novel nickel carbonyl complexes LNiCO ( 11–18 ), Si(OCH₂PMe₂)₄[Ni(CO)₂]₂ ( 19 ) and (HOCH₂PMe₂)₂Ni(CO)₂ ( 20 ). They are obtained in moderate to good yields by the reaction of Ni(CO)₄ with the corresponding ligands in toluene (20–111°C) (see Table 1). The new compounds have been characterized by analytical (C, H) and spectroscopic investigations (IR; ¹H-, ¹³C-, ¹⁹F, ³¹P-NMR, MS). The ligand properties are discussed on the basis of spectroscopic data [in particular coordination shifts Δδ = δ(complex)—δ(ligand)] leading to the conclusion that the high electron density on Ni gives rise to a weak, but significant Ni→Si interaction. An important indication comes from the large low field shift Δδ_F = 34.5 ppm for the SiF acceptor bridge in 17 . This result is supported by an X-ray diffraction study of 11 giving an NiSi distance of 3.941(2) Å. With the exception of O2…?P3 (Abb. 7) all other O…?P through-cage contacts are longer than the NiSi distance. An additional release from the high charge density on Ni is obtained via π-backbonding to the neighbouring groups OCPMe₂, CCPMe₂ and CO.     

Structure and unimolecular chemistry of protonated sulfur betaines, (CH3)2S(+)(CH2)(n)CO2H (n = 1 and 2)

The fixed charge zwitterionic sulfur betaines dimethylsulfonioacetate (DMSA) (CH(3))(2)S(+)CH(2)CO(2)(-) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) (CH(3))(2)S(+)(CH(2))(2)CO(2)(-) have been synthesized and the structures of their protonated salts (CH(3))(2)S(+)CH(2)CO(2)H···Cl(-) [DMSA.HCl] and (CH(3))(2)S(+)(CH(2))(2)CO(2)H···Pcr(-) [DMSP.HPcr] (where Pcr = picrate) have been characterized using X-ray crystallography. The unimolecular chemistry of the [M+H](+) of these betaines was studied using two techniques; collision-induced dissociation (CID) and electron-induced dissociation (EID) in a hybrid linear ion trap Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer. Results from the CID study show a richer series of fragmentation reactions for the shorter chain betaine and contrasting main fragmentation pathways. Thus while (CH(3))(2)S(+)(CH(2))(2)CO(2)H fragments via a neighbouring group reaction to generate (CH(3))(2)S(+)H and the neutral lactone as the most abundant fragmentation channel, (CH(3))(2)S(+)CH(2)CO(2)H fragments via a 1,2 elimination reaction to generate CH(3)S(+)=CH(2) as the most abundant fragment ion. To gain insights into these fragmentation reactions, DFT calculations were carried out at the B3LYP/6-311++G(2d,p) level of theory. For (CH(3))(2)S(+)CH(2)CO(2)H, the lowest energy pathway yields CH(3)S(+)=CH(2)via a six-membered transition state. The two fragment ions observed in CID of (CH(3))(2)S(+)(CH(2))(2)CO(2)H are shown to share the same transition state and ion-molecule complex forming either (CH(3))(2)S(+)H or (CH(2))(2)CO(2)H(+). Finally, EID shows a rich and relatively similar fragmentation channels for both protonated betaines, with radical cleavages being observed, including loss of ˙CH(3).     

Density functional study of HO(H2O)n (n = 1–3) clusters

The hydrogen bonding complexes HO(H₂O)_n (n = 1–3) were completely investigated in the present study using DFT and MP2 methods at varied basis set levels from 6‐31++G(d,p) to 6‐311++G(2d,2p). For n = 1 two, for n = 2 two, and for n = 3 five reasonable geometries are considered. The optimized geometric parameters and interaction energies for various complexes at different levels are estimated. The infrared spectrum frequencies and IR intensities of the most stable structures are reported. Finally, thermochemistry studies are also carried out. The results indicate that the formation and the number of hydrogen bonding have played an important role in the structures and relative stabilities of different complexes. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Perfluoromethyl-Element-Ligands. XVII. Formation of Adducts of Me_nE(CF₃)_3?n Ligands with BX₃ Compounds (Me = CH₃; E = P, As, Sb; n = 0–3; X = H, CH₃, Hal) The ligands Me_nE(CF₃)_3?n (Me = CH₃; E = P, As, Sb; n = 0–3) have been prepared (partly using new methods) and studied by n.m.r. spectroscopy (¹H, ¹⁹F, ³¹P, ¹³C). In order to deduce their relative donor strength their reactions with the Lewis acids “BH₃”, BMe₃, BMe₃, Me₂BBr, and BX₃ (X = F, Cl, Br) have been studied. Control of adduct formation occurs by n.m.r. spectroscopy (¹H, ¹⁹F). The following series of decreasing basicity or acidity are obtained:

Theoretical studies of organometallic compounds. I. All electron and pseudopotential calculations of Ti(CH3)nCl4 − n (n = 0–4)

The performance of effective core potentials (ECP) and model potentials (MP) has been studied by calculating the geometries and reaction energies of isodesmic reactions for the molecules Ti(CH₃)_nCl_{4 ? n} (n = 0–4) at the Hartree–Fock level of theory. The results are compared with data from all electron calculations and experimental results as far as available. The all electron calculations were performed with a 3-21G basis set from Hehre and a (53321/521/41) basis set from Huzinaga. For the ECP calculations the potentials developed by Hay and Wadt, and for the MP calculations, the model potentials developed by Sakai and Huzinaga, are employed. © 1992 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Structures and properties of (H2GaN3)n (n = 1–4) clusters: A DFT study

Computations on the systems of (H₂GaN₃)_n (n = 1–4) are performed using the density functional theory (DFT)/B3LYP method with different basis sets. (H₂GaN₃)₂ possessing D_2h symmetry is found to exhibit the planar Ga₂N₂ ring structure. (H₂GaN₃)₃ involving a six‐membered Ga₃N₃ ring is found to exhibit two minima with very similar binding energies (ca. −235 ∼ −231 kJ · mol⁻¹). One minimum is the newly found boat‐like conformation possessing C_s symmetry. Another minimum possessing C_3v symmetry is the chair‐like conformation. (H₂GaN₃)₄ occurs in several structures with Ga₄N₄ eight‐membered ring structures that correspond to minima with slight energy differences among them. The structural changes of the clusters are large compared with the monomer. Frequency calculations are carried out on each optimized structure, and their infrared (IR) spectra are discussed. Thermodynamic properties demonstrate that the systems of H₂GaN₃ occur at dimer–trimer–tetramer equilibrium, and the trimer is the main component. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An ab initio Hartree–Fock–Slater procedure was applied to the calculation of the electronic structure of polysulfanes, H₂S_n (n = 1–4) and the ions HS and S. Charge densities, overlap populations, and deprotonation energies are calculated; the latter appear well correlated with the first and second acidity constants.
