Synopsis


A novel Ru(II) dinuclear complex containing the bis-facial hexadentate bridging ligand Hbimp is described. This complex is an excellent catalyst for the epoxidation of a wide range of alkenes, yielding high turnover numbers and turnover frequencies. Furthermore, an outstanding stereospecificity for both cis and transolefins toward the formation of the corresponding epoxides is envisaged due to cooperative effects transferred by the Hbimp scaffold.

Abstract

Abstract Image
A new bis-facial dinuclear ruthenium complex, {[RuII(bpy)]2(μ-bimp)(μ-Cl)}2+, 22+, containing a hexadentate pyrazolate-bridging ligand (Hbimp) and bpy as auxiliary ligands has been synthesized and fully characterized in solution by spectrometric, spectroscopic, and electrochemical techniques. The new compound has been tested with regard to its capacity to oxidize water and alkenes. The in situ generated bis-aqua complex, {[RuII(bpy)(H2O)]2(μ-bimp)}3+, 33+, is an excellent catalyst for the epoxidation of a wide range of alkenes. High turnover numbers (TN), up to 1900, and turnover frequencies (TOF), up to 73 min–1, are achieved using PhIO as oxidant. Moreover, 33+ presents an outstanding stereospecificity for both cis and trans olefins toward the formation of their corresponding epoxides due to specific interactions transmitted by its ligand scaffold. A mechanistic analysis of the epoxidation process has been performed based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations in order to better understand the putative cooperative effects within this dinuclear catalyst.

Rhenium(V)–oxo corrolazines: isolating redox-active ligand reactivity

Jan Paulo T. Zaragoza,a   Maxime A. Sieglera and   David P. Goldberg* Chem. Commun., 2015, Advance Article DOI: 10.1039/C5CC07956J Received 22 Sep 2015, Accepted 15 Oct 2015 First published online 28 Oct 2015 http://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2015/cc/c5cc07956j#!divAbstract Abstract The synthesis of the first example of a third-row metallocorrolazine characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction is reported. This ReV(O) porphyrinoid complex shows an exclusively ligand-based reactivity with strong acids and oxidizing agents. The one-electron oxidized π-radical-cation complex is capable of H-atom abstraction.

Chem., 2015, 54 (21), pp 10141–10152 DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.5b01500 Publication Date (Web): October 12, 2015 A family of imine-based nonheme iron(II) complexes (LX)2Fe(OTf)2 has been prepared, characterized, and employed as C–H oxidation catalysts. Ligands LX (X = 1, 2, 3, and 4) stand for tridentate imine ligands resulting from spontaneous condensation of 2-pycolyl-amine and 4-substituted-2-picolyl aldehydes. Fast and quantitative formation of the complex occurs just upon mixing aldehyde, amine, and Fe(OTf)2 in a 2:2:1 ratio in acetonitrile solution. The solid-state structures of (L1)2Fe(OTf)(ClO4) and (L3)2Fe(OTf)2 are reported, showing a low-spin octahedral iron center, with the lig...
