C−C Cross-Couplings from a Cyclometalated Au(III) C∧ N Complex: Mechanistic Insights and Synthetic Developments
2021
Abstract In recent years, the reactivity of gold complexes was shown to extend well beyond π‐activation and to hold promises to achieve selective cross‐couplings in several C−C and C−E (E=heteroatom) bond forming reactions. Here, with the aim of exploiting new organometallic species for cross‐coupling reactions, we report on the Au(III)‐mediated C(sp2)−C(sp) occurring upon reaction of the cyclometalated complex [Au(CCH2N)Cl2] (1, CCH2N=2‐benzylpyridine) with AgPhCC. The reaction progress has been monitored by NMR spectroscopy, demonstrating the involvement of a number of key intermediates, whose structures have been unambiguously ascertained through 1D and 2D NMR analyses (1H, 13C, 1H‐1H CO…
Supramolecular Assembly of Metal Complexes by (Aryl)I⋯dz2[PtII] Halogen Bond
2020
The theoretical data for the half‐lantern complexes [Pt(C^N)(μ‐S^N)] 2 ( 1 – 3 ; С^N is cyclometalated 2‐Ph‐benzothiazole; S^N is 2‐SH‐pyridine 1 , 2‐SH‐benzoxazole 2 , 2‐SH‐tetrafluorobenzothiazole 3 ) indicate that the Pt···Pt orbital interaction leads to an increment of the nucleophilicity of the outer d z 2 ‐orbitals to provide assembly with electrophilic species. 1 – 3 were co‐crystallized with bifunctional halogen bond (XB) donors to give adducts ( 1 – 3 ) 2 ∙(1,4‐diiodotetrafluorobenzene) and infinite polymeric [ 1 ·1,1’‐diiodoperfluorodiphenyl] n . X‐ray crystallography revealed that the supramolecular assembly is achieved via (Aryl)I∙∙∙ d z 2 [Pt II ] XB between iodine σ‐holes and …
