Synopsis

New water-soluble pentamethylcyclopendadienyl cobalt(III) complexes with proton-responsive 4,4′- and 6,6′-dihydroxy-2,2′-bipyridine (4DHBP and 6DHBP, respectively) ligands have been prepared and were characterized by X-ray crystallography, UV−vis and NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, and DFT calculations. The cobalt complexes containing 4DHBP ligands ([1−OH2]2+ and [1−Cl]+) display better thermal stability and exhibit notable catalytic activity for CO2 hydrogenation to formate in aqueous bicarbonate media at moderate temperature under a total 4−5 MPa (CO2:H2 1:1) pressure.

Abstract

New water-soluble pentamethylcyclopentadienyl cobalt(III) complexes with proton-responsive 4,4′- and 6,6′-dihydroxy-2,2′-bipyridine (4DHBP and 6DHBP, respectively) ligands have been prepared and were characterized by X-ray crystallography, UV–vis and NMR spectroscopy, and mass spectrometry. These cobalt(III) complexes with proton-responsive ligands predominantly exist in their deprotonated [Cp*Co(DHBP–2H⁺)(OH₂)] forms with stronger electron-donating properties in neutral and basic solutions, and are active catalysts for CO₂ hydrogenation in aqueous bicarbonate media at moderate temperature under a total 4–5 MPa (CO₂:H₂ 1:1) pressure. The cobalt complexes containing 4DHBP ligands ([1–OH₂]²⁺and [1–Cl]⁺, where 1 = Cp*Co(4DHBP)) display better thermal stability and exhibit notable catalytic activity for CO₂ hydrogenation to formate in contrast to the catalytically inactive nonsubstituted bpy analogues [3–OH₂]²⁺ (3 = Cp*Co(bpy)). While the catalyst Cp*Ir(6DHBP)(OH₂)²⁺ in which the pendent oxyanion lowers the barrier for H₂ heterolysis via proton transfer through a hydrogen-bonding network involving a water molecule is remarkably effective (ACS Catal. 2013, 3, 856–860), cobalt complexes containing 6DHBP ligands ([2–OH₂]²⁺ and [2–Cl]⁺, 2 = Cp*Co(6DHBP)) exhibit lower TOF and TON for CO₂ hydrogenation than those with 4DHBP. The low activity is attributed to thermal instability during the hydrogenation of CO₂ as corroborated by DFT calculations.
