A general protocol to access Mo(3)FeS(4)(4+) clusters selectively modified at the Fe coordination site is presented starting from the all-chlorine Mo(3)(FeCl)S(4)(dmpe)(3)Cl(3) (1) [dmpe = 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphane-ethane)] cluster and tetrabutylammonium salts (n-Bu(4)NX) (X = CN(-), N(3)(-), and PhS(-)). Clusters Mo(3)(FeX)S(4)(dmpe)(3)Cl(3) [X = CN(-) (2), N(3)(-) (3), and PhS(-) (4)] are prepared in high yield, and comparison of geometric and redox features upon modification of the coordination environment at the Fe site at parity of ligands at the Mo sites is also presented. The existence of the cubane-type Mo(3)FeS(4)(4+,5+) redox couple is demonstrated by cyclic voltammetry and for co…
Nanolayered Cobalt-Molybdenum Sulfides as Highly Chemo- and Regioselective Catalysts for the Hydrogenation of Quinoline Derivatives
2018
[EN] Herein, a general protocol for the preparation of a broad range of valuable N-heterocyclic products by hydrogenation of quinolines and related N-heteroarenes is described. Interestingly, the catalytic hydrogenation of the N-heteroarene ring is chemoselectively performed when other facile reducible functional groups, including alkenes, ketones, cyanides, carboxylic acids, esters, and amides, are present. The key to successful catalysis relies on the use of a nanolayered cobalt-molybdenum sulfide catalyst hydrothermally synthesized from earth-abundant metal precursors. This heterogeneous system displays a tunable composition of phases that allows for catalyst regeneration. Its catalytic …

The synthesis, X-ray structure and variable-temperature magnetic study of new compounds of formula PPh4[Cr(dmbipy)(ox)2]·5H2O (1), AsPh4[Cr(dmbipy)(ox)2]·5H2O (2), {Ba(H2O)2[Cr(dmbipy)(ox)2]2}n·17/2nH2O (3) and {Ag(H2O)[Cr(dmbipy)(ox)2]}n·3nH2O (4) (PPh4+ = tetraphenylphosphonium cation; AsPh4+ = tetraphenylarsonium cation; dmbipy = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine; ox2− = oxalate dianion) are reported herein. The isomorphous compounds 1 and 2 are made up of discrete [Cr(dmbipy)(ox)2]− anions, XPh4+ cations [X = P (1) and As (2)] and uncoordinated water molecules. The chromium environment in 1 and 2 is distorted octahedral with Cr–O and Cr–N bond distances varying in the ranges 1.950(2)–1.9782…
