PdII-mediated integration of isocyanides and azide ions might proceed via formal 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between RNC ligands and uncomplexed azide
2016
Reaction between equimolar amounts of trans-[PdCl(PPh3)2(CNR)][BF4] (R = t-Bu 1, Xyl 2) and diisopropylammonium azide 3 gives the tetrazolate trans-[PdCl(PPh3)2(N4t-Bu)] (67%, 4) or trans-[PdCl(PPh3)2(N4Xyl)] (72%, 5) complexes. 4 and 5 were characterized by elemental analyses (C, H, N), HRESI+-MS, 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectroscopies. In addition, the structure of 4 was elucidated by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction. DFT calculations showed that the mechanism for the formal cycloaddition (CA) of N3− to trans-[PdCl(PH3)2(CNMe)]+ is stepwise. The process is both kinetically and thermodynamically favorable and occurs via the formation of an acyclic NNNCN-intermediate. The second step of the fo…
Mechanistic Study of Stepwise Methylisocyanide Coupling and C-H Activation Mediated by a Low-Valent Main Group Molecule
2013
An experimental and DFT investigation of the mechanism of the coupling of methylisocyanide and C-H activation mediated by the germylene (germanediyl) Ge(Ar(Me6))2 (Ar(Me6) = C6H3-2,6(C6H2-2,4,6-Me3)2) showed that it proceeded by initial MeNC adduct formation followed by an isomerization involving the migratory insertion of the MeNC carbon into the Ge-C ligand bond. Addition of excess MeNC led to sequential insertions of two further MeNC molecules into the Ge-C bond. The insertion of the third MeNC leads to methylisocyanide methyl group C-H activation to afford an azagermacyclopentadienyl species. The X-ray crystal structures of the 1:1 (Ar(Me6))2GeCNMe adduct, the first and final insertion …
Diastereoselective Insertion of Isocyanide into the Alkyl−Metal Bond of Methylbenz[ e ]indenyl ansa ‐Zirconocene Complexes
2004
Alkylation of ansa-zirconocene [Zr{(η5-C5H5)SiMe2(MBI)}Cl2] (MBI = η5-2-Me−C13H7) with MgRCl gave the dimethyl complex [Zr{(η5-C5H5)SiMe2(MBI)}Me2], but unresolvable mixtures containing mono-alkylated compounds were obtained when bulkier alkyls were used. However pure dialkyl complexes [Zr{(η5-C5H5)SiMe2(MBI)}R2] (R = CH2Ph, CH2SiMe3) were easily obtained using K(CH2Ph) and Li(CH2SiMe3) as alkylating agents. Diastereoselective insertion into the MBI-unprotected Zr−R bond was observed when all of these dialkyl complexes were treated with 2,6-xylyl isocyanide to give the iminoacyl compounds [Zr{(η5-C5H5)SiMe2(MBI)}R{CR[η2-N-(2,6-xylyl)]}] (R = Me, CH2Ph, CH2SiMe3). All of the new complexes we…
Syntheses and Structures of a Series of Acyclic Diaminocarbene Palladium(II) Complexes Derived from 3,4-Diaryl-1H-pyrrol-2,5-diimines and Bisisocyani…
2018
Reactions of 3,4-diaryl-1H-pyrrol-2,5-diimines with various bisisocyanide palladium(II) complexes were studied. The coupling proceeds with one isocyanide ligand to accomplish the acyclic diaminocarbene complexes. The structure of generated diaminocarbene complexes depends on bulkiness of isocyanide ligand in the bisisocyanide complexes of palladium(II). The imino-group of 3,4-diaryl-1H-pyrrol-2,5-diimine reacts with one isocyanide ligand of cis-[PdCl2(CN–R)2] (R = i-Pr, Cy, t-Bu, Bn), and the nitrogen atom of the pyrrole ring is coordinated to the palladium center as the second isocyanide ligand remains intact. In the case of cis-[PdCl2(CN–R)2] (R = 2-acyloxyphenyl, 2-sulfonyloxyphenyl), on…
Ligand dynamics of tert-butyl isocyanide oxido complexes of molybdenum(IV).
2014
The six-coordinate molybdenum(IV) oxido isocyanide complex 1 [Δ,Λ-OC-6-2-3-[MoO(N(p)∩N(i))2(CN(t)Bu)]; N(p)∩N(i) = 4-tert-butylphenyl(pyrrolato-2-ylmethylene)amine] is obtained in diastereomerically pure form in the solid state, as revealed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In solution, this stereoisomer equilibrates with the Δ,Λ-OC-6-2-4 diastereomer 2 at ambient temperature. The stereochemistry of both isomers has been elucidated by NMR, IR, and UV/vis spectroscopy in combination with density functional theory (DFT)/polarizable continuum model and time-dependent DFT calculations. The isomerization 1 → 2 is suggested to proceed via a dissociative trigonal twist with dissociation of the …
Multiple Roles of Isocyanides in Palladium-Catalyzed Imidoylative Couplings: A Mechanistic Study
2016
International audience; Kinetic, spectroscopic and computational studies examining a palladium-catalyzed imidoylative coupling highlight the dual role of isocyanides as both substrates and ligands for this class of transformations. The synthesis of secondary amides from aryl halides and water is presented as a case study. The kinetics of the oxidative addition of ArI with RNC-ligated Pd-0 species have been studied and the resulting imidoyl complex [(ArC=NR)Pd(CNR)(2)I] (Ar=4-F-C6H4, R = tBu) has been isolated and characterized by X-ray diffraction. The unprecedented ability of this RNC-ligated imidoyl-Pd complex to undergo reductive elimination at room temperature to give the amide in the p…
N-protonated 2-pyridylnickel(II) complexes insertion of isocyanides into the nickel2-pyridyl bond
1987
The reaction of the binuclear complex [NiCl(μ-2-py)(PPh3)]2 (μ-2-py = μ-C5H4N-C2,N) with the phosphines L (L = PPh3, PMePh2, PMe2Ph or PEt3) or dppe (= 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) in the presence of HClO4 yields the N-protonated 2-pyridyl derivatives trans-[NiCl(2-pyH)(L)2]ClO4 or [NiCl(2-pyH)(dppe)] ClO4 (2-pyH = C5H5N-C2) with a square-planar coordination around the nickel(II) center. These products are largely associated through hydrogen bonding between the NH group and the perchlorate anion, both in the solid and in chlorinated solvents. The configuration in solution has been studied by 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy. In the complex trans-[NiCl(2-pyH)(PMe2Ph)2]ClO4, the planar 2-pyH…
SYNTHESIS, LASER-RAMAN, INFRARED AND PROTON MAGNETIC RESONANCE SPECTRA OF (CH3)3PtX2- 3 IONS (X = Cl−, Br−) AND (CH3)3Ptiv ISOCYANIDE COMPLEXES
1976
Abstract The novel ionic complexes [(C6H5)4As]2 [(CH3)3PtX3](X = Cl− and Br−) and [(CH3)3Pt(bipy)L]+[B(C6H5)4]− (bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine, L = aliphatic and aromatic isocyanide) have been prepared. The structure of the complex ions has been inferred from Laser-Raman and infrared spectra in the solid state and 1H NMR in solution. These data are consistent with a facial configuration of the organometallic moiety. Trends in vibrational frequencies ν(Pt-C) and ν(Pt-X) indicate a “trans” influence sequence for the ligands, which in the case of (CH3)3PtX2- 3 is related with that found for (CH3)2AuX− 2 ions.
Bright Blue Phosphorescence from Cationic Bis-Cyclometalated Iridium(III) Isocyanide Complexes
2012
We report new bis-cyclometalated cationic indium(III) complexes [((CN)-N-boolean AND)(2)Ir(CN-tert-Bu)(2)](CF3SO3) that have tert-butyl isocyanides as neutral auxiliary ligands and 2-phenylpyridine or 2-(4'-fluoropheny1)-R-pyridines (where R is 4-methoxy, 4-tert-butyl, or 5-trifluoromethyl) as (CN)-N-boolean AND ligands. The complexes are white or pale yellow solids that show irreversible reduction and oxidation processes and have a large electrochemical gap of 3.58-3.83 V. They emit blue or bluegreen phosphorescence in liquid/solid solutions from a cyclometalating-ligand-centered excited state. Their emission spectra show vibronic structure with the highest-energy luminescence peak at 440-…
Preparation and reactions of palladium(II) complexes with C2-bonded heteroaromatic ligands trans[PdCl(RN)(PPh3)2] (RN = 2-pyridyl, 2-pirazyl, 2-pyrim…
1986
Abstract The complexes trans -[PdCl(R N )(PPh 3 ) 2 ] (I) [R N = 2-pyridyl (2-Py), 2-pyrazyl (2-pyz), 2-pyrimidyl (2-pym) group] have been prepared in high yield by deprotonation with NEt 3 of the corresponding cationic compounds trans [PdCl(R N H) (PPh 3 ) 2 ] + (R N H = N -protonated C 2 -heteroaromatic ligand) in the presence of an excess of PPh 3 . In chlorinated solvents, complexes I undergo a slow reversible dimerization into the binuclear derivatives [PdCl(μ-R N )(PPh 3 )] 2 (II) (μ-R N = C 2 , N 1 -bridging ligand). From the 31 P NMR spectra in 1,2-dichloroethane the following dissociation constants were obtained: 1.9 mol 1 −1 (R N = 2-py), 5.1 × 10 −2 (2-pym), 6.6 × 10 −3 (2-pyz). …
