Charge Effects in PCP Pincer Complexes of NiII bearing Phosphinite and Imidazol(i)ophosphine Coordinating Jaws: From Synthesis to Catalysis through Bonding Analysis

This contribution reports on a new family of Ni^II pincer complexes featuring phosphinite and functional imidazolyl arms. The proligands ^RPIMC^HOP^R′ react at room temperature with Ni^II precursors to give the corresponding complexes [(^RPIMCOP^R′)NiBr], where ^RPIMCOP^R=κ^P,κ^C,κ^P‐{2‐(R′₂PO),6‐(R₂PC₃H₂N₂)C₆H₃}, R=iPr, R′=iPr ( 3 b , 84 %) or Ph ( 3 c , 45 %). Selective N‐methylation of the imidazole imine moiety in 3 b by MeOTf (OTf=OSO₂CF₃) gave the corresponding imidazoliophosphine [(^iPrPIMIOCOP^iPr)NiBr][OTf], 4 b , in 89 % yield (^iPrPIMIOCOP^iPr=κ^P,κ^C,κ^P‐{2‐(iPr₂PO),6‐(iPr₂PC₄H₅N₂)C₆H₃}). Treating 4 b with NaOEt led to the NHC derivative [(NHCCOP^iPr)NiBr], 5 b , in 47 % yield (NHCCOP^iPr=κ^P,κ^C,κ^C‐{2‐(iPr₂PO),6‐(C₄H₅N₂)C₆H₃)}). The bromo derivatives 3–5 were then treated with AgOTf in acetonitrile to give the corresponding cationic species [(^RPIMCOP^R)Ni(MeCN)][OTf] [R=Ph, 6 a (89 %) or iPr, 6 b (90 %)], [(^RPIMIOCOP^R)Ni(MeCN)][OTf]₂ [R=Ph, 7 a (79 %) or iPr, 7 b (88 %)], and [(NHCCOP^R)Ni(MeCN)][OTf] [R=Ph, 8 a (85 %) or iPr, 8 b (84 %)]. All new complexes have been characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy, whereas 3 b , 3 c , 5 b , 6 b , and 8 a were also subjected to X‐ray diffraction studies. The acetonitrile adducts 6 – 8 were further studied by using various theoretical analysis tools. In the presence of excess nitrile and amine, the cationic acetonitrile adducts 6 – 8 catalyze hydroamination of nitriles to give unsymmetrical amidines with catalytic turnover numbers of up to 95.

Sime₂]₂ and (me₃Si)₃P at 220°C. In the reactions of a with ClP(C₆H₅)₂ and ClPme₂ the compounds (me₃Si)₂P? P(C₆H₅)₂ and (me₃Si)₂P? Pme₂, respectively, are obtained. a reacts with HgCl₂ to (me₃Si)₂P? P(Sime₃)₂. (me₃Si)₃P can be cleaved with ClP(C₆H₅)₂ and ClPme₂ yielding (me₃Si)₂P? P(C₆H₅)₂ and (me₃Si)₂P? Pme₂, respectively. The ¹H- and ³¹P-n.m.r. and mass spectroscopic data are reported.     

Synthesis and crystal structures of novel lithium- and palladium-1-azaallyls

Treatment of (RH₂C)₂C₅H₃N-2,6 (R=SiMe₃) with BuⁿLi followed by addition of Me₃SiCl gave the tetrasilyl pyridine derivative (R₂HC)₂C₅H₃N-2,6 1 in high yield. Further lithiation of 1 with BuⁿLi and reaction of the intermediate with PhCN led to the new lithium-1-azaallyl [Li{N(R)C(Ph)C(R)(C₅H₃N-2,6)(CHR₂)}]₂2, while metallation of the previously described di-lithium compounds [Li{N(R)C(R^′)CH}₂(C₅H₃-2,6)]Li(tmen)_n (R=SiMe₃, R^′=Bu^t, n=1 or R=SiMe₃, R^′=Ph, n=2) with PdCl₂(PhCN)₂ yielded the novel metallacycles [Pd{{N(H)(R)C(R^′)CH}{N(SiMe₂CH₂)C(R^′)CH}C₅H₃N-2,6}] 3 (R^′=Bu^t) and [Pd{{N(R)C(R^′)CH}{N(R)(H)C(R^′)CH}C₅H₃N-2,6}₂] (R^′=Ph) 4 in moderate to low yield. Compound 3 is unusual in being the first example of a crystallographically characterised PdNSiC heterocycle which is believed to be formed via an intramolecular CH-activation of a trimethylsilyl group by Pd(II). All four compounds were fully characterised by NMR-spectroscopy, microanalysis (not 4) and X-ray diffraction.

The reaction of [(ArN)₂MoCl₂] · DME (Ar = 2,6‐i‐Pr₂C₆H₃) ( 1 ) with lithium amidinates or guanidinates resulted in molybdenum(VI) complexes [(ArN)₂MoCl{N(R¹)C(R²)N(R¹)}] (R¹ = Cy (cyclohexyl), R² = Me ( 2 ); R¹ = Cy, R² = N(i‐Pr)₂ ( 3 ); R¹ = Cy, R² = N(SiMe₃)₂ ( 4 ); R¹ = SiMe₃, R² = C₆H₅ ( 5 )) with five coordinated molybdenum atoms. Methylation of these compounds was exemplified by the reactions of 2 and 3 with MeLi affording the corresponding methylates [(ArN)₂MoMe{N(R¹)C(R²)N(R¹)}] (R¹ = Cy, R² = Me ( 6 ); R¹ = Cy, R² = N(i‐Pr)₂ ( 7 )). The analogous reaction of 1 with bulky [N(SiMe₃)C(C₆H₅)C(SiMe₃)₂]Li · THF did not give the corresponding metathesis product, but a Schiff base adduct [(ArN)₂MoCl₂] · [NH=C(C₆H₅)CH(SiMe₃)₂] ( 8 ) in low yield. The molecular structures of 7 and 8 are established by the X‐ray single crystal structural analysis.

These complexes do not react with MeOH to give methoxy carbene complexes of the type RuTp(PPh₂Prⁱ)(Cl)(=C(OMe)CH₂R), but react with oxygen to yield the CO complex RuTp(PPh₂R)(Cl)(CO) (3). The structures of 2b, 2f, and 3 have been determined by X-ray crystallography.

Reactions of [(me₃Si)₂P]₂PLi with Chlorophosphanes [(me₃Si)₂P]₂PLi 1 with (C₆H₅)₂PCl yields only a small amount of the expected [(me₃Si)₂P]₂P–P(C₆H₅)₂ 2 ; the main products are (me₃Si)₂P–P(C₆H₅)₂ 3 and (C₆H₅)₂P–P(C₆H₅)₂ 4 besides some (me₃Si)₃P 5 and (C₆H₅)₂P–Sime₃ 6. 3 and 4 result from the metallation of (C₆H₅)₂PCl by 1 t-buPCl₂ and 1 form the P₃-ring (me₃Si)(me₃C)P₃[P(Sime₃)₂] 9 as main product besides some [(me₃Si)₂P]₂P–Sime₃ 7 and 5. 9 is afforded by elimination of me₃SiCl, from the initially formed unstable [(me₃Si)₂P]₂P–P(Cl)Cme₃ 10 . Similarly 1 and PCl₃ yield mainly the P₃-ring (me₃Si)(Cl)P₃ · [P(Sime₃)₂] 11 due to elimination of me₃SiCl from [(me₃Si)₂P]₂P–PCl₂.     

Bildung siliciumorganischer Verbindungen. 67. Untersuchungen zur metallorganischen Synthese Si-methylierter und C-chlorierter Carbosilane über Chlorcarbenoide

Formation of Organosilicon Compounds. 67. Studies of Metallorganic Synthesis of Si-methylated and C-chlorinated Carbosilanes Using Chlorocarbenoids Synthesis and reactions of C₆H₅me₂Si? CCl₂H (A), (H₅C₆me₂Si)₂CCl₂ (B), and me₂Si(CCl₂H)₂ (C) were investigated in order to find conditions for the synthesis of C-functional carbosilanes via chlorocarbenoids. (A) and (B) react with n-butyl-Li(buLi) (?100°C/THF/ether/pentane) yielding H₅C₆me₂Si? CCl₂Li and (H₅C₆me₂Si)CClLi, respectively. These lithium reagents form (B) and(H₅C₆me₂Si)₃CCl with H₅C₆me₂SiCl. In the reaction of (H₅C₆me₂Si)₃CCl with lithium (H₅C₆me₂Si)₃CLi (D) is obtained. (D) forms with H₂O/HCl the compound (H₅C₆me₂Si)₃CH which is cleaved by HBr yielding (Brme₂Si)₃CH. (C) gives LiCCl₂? Sime₂(CCl₂H) with buLi (molar ratio 1:1) in a low temperature reaction. Clme₂Si? CCl₂? Sime₂(CCl₂H) is formed in the reaction of LiCCl₂? Sime₂? CCl₂H with Sime₂CCl₂ (yield >90%). Reacting (C) and buLi (1:3) and treating this solution with Sime₂CI₂ gives (ClSime₂)₂C?CH Sime₂Cl (>85%) via a monosilacyclopropane intermediate. In the inverse reaction, if (C) is added to buLi, (HCCl₂)me₂SiC?Sime₂(CCl₂H) is one of the isolated reaction products. If buLi is added to (C) (2:l) and this solution is treated with Sime₃Cl, compounds me₃Si? CCL₂? Sime₂? CCL₂H, me₃Si? CClH? Sime₂(CCl₂H), (me₃Si? CC1₂)₂Sime₂, me₃Si? CHCI? Sime₂? CC1₂?

Synthesis and characterization of cationic and zwitterionic allyl zirconium complexes derived from trimethylenemethane (TMM) cyclopentadienylzirconium acetamidinates

Protonation of the trimethylenemethane derivatives, Cp*Zr(σ²,π-C₄H₆)[N(R¹)C(Me)N(R²)] (1a: R¹=R²=i-Pr and 1b: R¹=Et, R²=t-Bu) (Cp*=η⁵-C₅Me₅), by [PhNMe₂H][B(C₆F₅)₄] in chlorobenzene at −10 °C provides the cationic methallyl complexes, Cp*Zr(η³-C₄H₇)[N(R¹)C(Me)N(R²)] (2a: R¹=R²=i-Pr and 2b: R¹=Et, R²=t-Bu), which are thermally robust in solution at elevated temperatures as determined by ¹H NMR spectroscopy. Addition of B(C₆F₅)₃ to 1a and 1b provides the zwitterionic allyl complexes, Cp*Zr{η³-CH₂C[CH₂B(C₆F₅)₃]CH₂}[N(R¹)C(Me)N(R²)] (3a: R¹=R²=i-Pr and 3b: R¹=Et, R²=t-Bu). The crystal structures of 2b and 3a have been determined. Neither the cationic complexes 2 or the zwitterionic complexes 3 are active initiators for the Ziegler-Natta polymerization of ethylene and α-olefins.     

Polypropylene and poly(ethylene‐co‐1‐octene) effective synthesis with diamine‐bis(phenolate) complexes: Effect of complex structure on catalyst activity and product microstructure

A series of group 4 metal complexes bearing amine‐bis(phenolate) ligands with the amino side‐arm donor: (μ‐O)[Me₂N(CH₂)₂N(CH₂‐2‐O‐3,5‐tBu₂‐C₆H₂)₂ZrCl]₂ ( 1a ), R₂N(CH₂)₂N(CH₂‐2‐O‐3‐R¹‐5‐R²‐C₆H₂)₂TiCl₂ (R = Me, R¹, R² = tBu ( 2a ), R = iPr, R¹, R² = tBu ( 2b ), R = iPr, R¹ = tBu, R² = OMe ( 2c )), and Me₂N(CH₂)₂N(CH₂‐2‐O‐3,5‐tBu₂‐C₆H₂)(CH₂‐2‐O‐C₆H₄)TiCl₂ ( 2d ) are used in ethylene and propylene homopolymerization, and ethylene/1‐octene copolymerization. All complexes, upon their activation with Al(iBu)₃/Ph₃CB(C₆F₅)₄, exhibit reasonable catalytic activity for ethylene homo‐ and copolymerization giving linear polyethylene with high to ultra‐high molecular weight (600·× 10³–3600·× 10³ g/mol). The activity of 1a /Al(iBu)₃/Ph₃CB(C₆F₅)₄ shows a positive comonomer effect, leading to over 400% increase of the polymer yield, while the addition of 1‐octene causes a slight reduction of the activity of the complexes 2a‐2d . The complexes with the NMe₂ donor group ( 2a , 2d , 1a ) display a high ability to incorporate a comonomer (up to 9–22 mol%), and the use of a bulkier donor group, N(iPr)₂ ( 2b , 2c ), results in a lower 1‐octene incorporation. All the produced copolymers reveal a broad chemical composition distribution. In addition, the investigated complexes polymerized propylene with the moderate ( 1a , 2a ) to low ( 2b‐2d ) activity, giving polymers with different microstructures, from purely atactic to isotactically enriched (mmmm = 28%). © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Bis[N-(trimethylsilyl)iminobenzoyl]phosphanide des Lithiums und Zinks – Synthese sowie NMR-spektroskopische,strukturelle und quantenchemische Untersuchungen

Acyl- and Alkylidenephosphanes. XXXV. Bis[ N -(trimethylsilyl)iminobenzoyl]phosphanides of Lithium and Zinc – Syntheses as well as NMR Spectroscopic, Structural, and Quantumchemical Studies From the reaction of bis(tetrahydrofuran)lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)phosphanide with two equivalents of benzonitrile in 1,2-dimethoxyethane, the yellow dme complex ( 2 a ) of lithium bis[N-(trimethylsilyl)iminobenzoyl]phosphanide ( 2 ) was obtained in 69% yield. However, the intermediate {1-[N-lithium-N-(trimethylsilyl)amido]benzylidene}trimethylsilylphosphane ( 1 ), formed by an analogous 1 : 1 addition in diethyl ether, turned out to be unstable and as a consequence could be characterized by nmr spectroscopic methods only; attempts to isolate the compound failed, but small amounts of the neutral complex 2 b , with the ligands benzonitrile and tetrahydrofuran coordinated to lithium, precipitated. The reaction of compound 2 with zinc(II) chloride in diethyl ether gives the orange-red spiro-complex zinc bis{bis[N-(trimethylsilyl)iminobenzoyl]phosphanide} ( 3 ); this complex is also formed from bis[N-(trimethylsilyl)iminobenzoyl]phosphane ( 4 ), easily amenable by a lithium hydrogen exchange of 2 a with trifluoroacetic acid [18], and zinc bis[bis(trimethylsilyl)amide]. As derived from nmr spectroscopic studies and x-ray structure determinations, compounds 2 a {δ³¹P +63.3 ppm; P2₁/n; Z = 4; R₁ = 0.067}, 2 b {δ³¹P +63.3 ppm; P2₁/c; Z = 4; R₁ = 0.063}, 3 {δ³¹P +58.2 ppm; C2/c; Z = 4; R₁ = 0.037} and 4 {δ³¹P +58.1 ppm [18]} exist as cyclic 3-imino-2λ³σ²-phosphapropenylamides and -propenylamine, respectively, in solution as well as in the solid state. Unlike hydrogen derivative 4 the bis[N-(trimethylsilyl)iminobenzoyl]phosphanide fragments N,N′-coordinating either a lithium or a zinc cation are characterized by almost completely equalized bond lengths; typical mean distances and angles are: PC 180.3 and 178.7; CN 130.5 and 131.8; N–Si 175.3 and 179.3; N–Li 202.3; N–Zn 203.5 pm; CPC 108.8° and 110.5°; PCN 130.9° and 132.9°; CN–Li 113.0°, CN–Zn 117.4°; N–Li–N 104.6°; N–Zn–N 108.8°. Alterations in the shape of the six membered chelate rings, caused by an exchange of the 3-imino-2λ³σ²-phosphapropenylamide or related 2λ³σ²-phospha-1,3-dionate units for the corresponding phosphorus free ligands, are discussed in detail. The results of quantumchemical DFT-B3LYP calculations coincide very well with the experimentally obtained findings.     

Incorporation of Titanium(IV) into Sterically Hindered Schiff Bases of Heterocyclic β -Diketones Involving Ketooximes and Glycol as Coligands: Preparation and Structural Considerations

Titanium(IV) complexes of the general formula TiL(OPr ⁱ )₂ [where LH₂ = R CH₃ where R = ─C₆H₅, ─C₆H₄Cl(p)] were prepared by the interaction of titanium isopropoxide with sterically hindered Schiff bases derived from heterocyclic β -diketones in 1:1 molar ratio in dry benzene. The complexes TiL(OPr ⁱ )₂ were used as versatile precursors for the synthesis of other titanium(IV) complexes. Titanium(IV) complexes of the type TiLL'(OPr ⁱ ) (where L'H═R¹R²C═NOH, R¹ = R² = ─CH₃; R¹ = ─CH₃,R² = ─C₆H₅; R¹ = ─COC₆H₅, R² = ─C₆H₅) were synthesized by the reaction of TiL(OPr ⁱ )₂ with ketooximes (L'H) in equimolar ratio in dry benzene. Another type of titanium(IV) complexes having the general formula TiLGH(OPr ⁱ ) (where GH₂═HO─G─OH, G = ─CH₂─CH₂─) have been prepared by the reaction of TiL(OPr ⁱ )₂ with glycol in 1:1 molar ratio in dry benzene. Plausible structures of these new titanium(IV) complexes have been proposed on the basis of analytical data, molecular weight measurements, and spectral studies.

The mechanism of these peripheric reactions is discussed by assuming a four centered type intermediate. However reactions of 1 with the lithium amides LiNR(SiMe₃) (R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₄H₉, and C₆H₅) yield LiF and the difluorotrimethylsilylaminophosphine complexes Ni(PF₃)_4-n[PF₂NR(SiMe₃)]_n (n = 1, 3, 4) 12–18 .

Structural Organization of Symmetrical Dialkylthiuram Disulfides and Their Cyclic Analogs: X-Ray Diffraction and CP/MAS (13C, 15N) NMR Studies

High-resolution ¹³C and ¹⁵N solid-state NMR spectra were recorded for seven crystalline tetraalkyl-thiuram disulfides and their cyclic analogs of the general formula [R₂NC(S)S]₂ (where R = CH₃, C₂H₅, C₃H₇, and i-C₃H₇ or R₂ = (CH₂)₅, (CH₂)₆, and (CH₂)₄O). The ¹⁵N and ¹³C NMR resonances were assigned to the particular atoms in the compounds studied. Different isotropic ¹⁵N chemical shifts for both dialkyldithiocarbamato groups were interpreted while considering the inductive effects of the alkyl substituents combined with the mesomeric effect of the dithiocarbamato group. X-ray diffraction data were used to refine the molecular structure of bis(cyclohexamethylene)thiuram disulfide and to quantitatively characterize the conformations of the seven-membered N(CH₂)₆ heterocycles.

Specific magnetic susceptibilities (_s) of several newly synthesized chelates of some of the lanthanons [La(III), Pr(III) and Nd(III)] are reported. These derivatives are of the general type,Ln(O-i-C₃H₇)_3–n (C₆H₅CHNRO) _n [where,Ln=La(III), Pr(III) or Nd(III);n=1 or 2 and R=CH₂CH₂, CH₂CHCH₃ or C₆H₄] and have been prepared by the reaction of the alkoxides of the lanthanons withSchiff bases such as benzylidene-2-hydroxyethylamine (C₆H₅CHNCH₂CH₂OH), benzylidene-2-hydroxy-n-propylamine (C₆H₅CHNCH₂CHOHCH₃) and benzylidene-o-aminophenol (C₆H₅CHNC₆H₄OH) in different molar relations in dry benzene.The resulting crystalline derivatives are non-volatile, light to deep yellow or blackish in colour. These tend to polymerize on keeping as shown by their insoluble nature and higher melting points, the polymerisation possibly occurring by the intermolecular coordination through oxygen atoms as reported earlier¹.UsingGouy method², the bis-isopropoxy mono-Schiff base and mono-isopropoxy bis-Schiff base complexes of La(III) have been shown to be diamagnetic, with _s values being in the range of –0.32 to –0.45×10^–6 and –0.39 to –0.55×10^–6 c.g.s. units at 305 K respectively.In the remaining derivatives, Pr(O-i-C₃H₇)_3–n (C₆H₅CH NRO) _n and Nd(O-i-C₃H₇)_3–n (C₆H₅CHNRO) _n (where,n=1 or 2 and R=CH₂CH₂, CH₂CHCH₃ or C₆H₄) the magnetic moment values range between 3.25 to 3.32 and 3.30 to 3.33 _B respectively indicating their paramagnetic nature.     

Bildung siliciumorganischer Verbindungen. 84 [1]. Synthese und thermische Umlagerung von verschieden substituierten linearen und cyclischen Silanen

Formation of organosilicon compounds. 84. Synthesis and thermal rearrangement of some substituted linear and cyclic silanes In part IR we report on the synthesis of substituted silanes, and in part II on their thermal rearrangement. I: me₃i--Sime₃(me = CH₃) is formed by dropwise addition of THF to a suspension of Li powder in me₃SiCl; yield ～ 80%. The mixture me₃Si--Sime₂Cl, me₃SiCl, Li powder and THF reacts analogously to form me₂Si(Sime₃)₂; yield 80%. By the same type of reaction the following compounds are obtained: compound 1 from Brme₂Si? CH₂? Sime₂Br, 1 from Brme₂Si? CH₂? Sime₂Br, 2 from Brme₂Si? Sime₂? CH₂? Sime₂Br 16 and 3 from Bret₂Si? CH₂? CH₂? Siet₂Br (et = C₂H₅). 2 decomposes during its isolation from THF. 16 is formed from phme₂Si? Sime₂? CH₂? Sime₂ph 17 (ph = C₆H₅) by reaction with HBr, 17 either from phme₂SiLi and Clme₂SiCH₂Cl or from phme₂Si? Sime₂Br and LiCH₂? Sime₂ph. II: me₂Si(Sime₃)₂ rearranges at 440 °C (56 h) with insertion of the CH₂ group (Si? H formation) into the Si? Si bond and the formation of me₃Si? Sime₂? CH₂? Sime₂H, me₂HSi? CH₂? Sime₂? CH₂? SiHme₂, and me₃Si? CH₂? Sime? CH₂? Sime₂H. 1 reacts analogously. Methylated halogenated disilanes like Brme₂Si? Sime₂Br react with separation of: Sime₂ and its insertion into the Si-halogen bond to form trisilanes. Different from both are the phenylated derivatives, though phme₂Si? Sime₂ph still forms phme₂Si? Sime₂? Sime₂ph. 3 reacts with separation of C₂H₄, formation of the Si? H group and insertion of C₂H₄ into the Si? Si bond.
