Nickel and Cobalt-Catalyzed Hydrofunctionalization Reaction of Alkene Nickel and Cobalt-Catalyzed Hydrofunctionalization Reaction of Alkene DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Balaram Raya, M. S. Graduate Program in Chemistry The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Professor T. V. RajanBabu, Advisor Professor Craig Forsyth Professor Jovica Badjic Copyrighted by Balaram Raya 2016 Abstract Organic reactions catalyzed by metal complexes are an effective way to improve atom economy and environmental friendliness for many synthetic transformations. Among the various synthetic transformations, hydrosilylation reaction has huge industrial applications for manufacturing consumer goods. The alkylsilanes from alkene hydrosilylation are widely used as raw materials in manufacturing silicon rubbers, molding implants and adhesive. The hydrosilylation reactions can also produce various organosilicon reagents, which are used in fine chemical synthesis for stereospecific oxidation and cross coupling reaction. Over the long decades, numerous reports on metal- catalyzed hydrosilylations include the use of platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, iridium, lanthanides and actinides, early transition metals, iron, cobalt to a limited extent iPr nickel. This work has shown that readily accessible ( PDI)CoCl2 reacts with 2 o equivalents NaEt3BH at -78 C in toluene to generate a catalyst that effects highlyselective anti-Markovnikov hydrosilylation of the terminal double bond in alkene, 1,3- and 1,4-dienes. Primary and secondary silanes such as PhSiH3, Ph2SiH2 and PhSi(Me)H2 react with a broad spectrum of dienes without affecting the configuration of the other double bond. A slight modification of the reaction conditions using a less reactive silane (OEt)2Si(Me)H leads to unprecedented and highly selective reduction of the terminal double bond with no contamination from the silane or reduction products of ii the more substituted double bond. The major limitation for cobalt catalyzed hydrosilylation reaction using redox active PDI ligand is its terminal selectivity. However, this active catalyst did not work for 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. In this connection, we also observed efficient cobalt catalyst system for hydrosilylation of 1,1- disubstituted alkenes using chelating phosphine ligand at room temperature, which is able to do hydrosilylation for numerous substrates such as alkene, vinyl arene, conjugated diene, 1,4-skipped diene and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. Carbocyclizations of α,ω-π-systems are extremely important and useful reactions for the synthesis of a variety of carbocyclic and heterocyclic compounds. Although metal catalyzed cyclization has been long known, controlling the selectivity (chemo- and regio- ) remains an important challenge in this field. Nickel complexes have been known to be specifically effective for cyclic homo-and co-oligomerization of alkenes, alkynes and dienes. During the past few years, through an approach that relied mostly on mechanistic insights and systematic examination of ligand effects, RajanBabu group has discovered a number of protocols for Ni(II)-catalyzed heterodimerization reactions of vinylarenes, selected 1,3-dienes and strained olefins. Substitution of one of the phenyl groups of triphenylphosphine with a 2-benzyloxy-(e.g., L18), 2-benzyloxy-methyl-(L19) or 2- benzyloxyethyl-(L20) phenyl moiety results in a set of simple ligands, which exhibit strikingly different behavior in various nickel (II)-catalyzed olefin dimerization reactions including related cycloisomerization of 1,6-dienes. Nickel(II)-catalyzed cycloisomerization of 1,6-dienes into methylenecyclopentanes, a reaction mechanistically related to the other heterodimerization reactions, is also uniquely affected by nickel(II) iii complexes of L18, but not of L19 or L20. In an attempt to prepare authentic samples of the methylenecyclohexane products, nickel(II) complexes of N-heterocyclic carbene ligands were examined. In contrast to the phosphine, which gives the methylenecyclopentanes, methylenecyclohexanes are the major products in the N- heterocyclic carbine ligated nickel (II)-mediated reaction. This dissertation discusses the ligand effect on hydrofuctionalization of alkenes using nickel or cobalt metal complexes. iv This dissertation is dedicated to my parents (Khadga Bd.

  • Crystal Field Theory (CFT)
    Crystal Field Theory (CFT) The bonding of transition metal complexes can be explained by two approaches: crystal field theory and molecular orbital theory. Molecular orbital theory takes a covalent approach, and considers the overlap of d-orbitals with orbitals on the ligands to form molecular orbitals; this is not covered on this site. Crystal field theory takes the ionic approach and considers the ligands as point charges around a central metal positive ion, ignoring any covalent interactions. The negative charge on the ligands is repelled by electrons in the d-orbitals of the metal. The orientation of the d orbitals with respect to the ligands around the central metal ion is important, and can be used to explain why the five d-orbitals are not degenerate (= at the same energy). Whether the d orbitals point along or in between the cartesian axes determines how the orbitals are split into groups of different energies. Why is it required? The valence bond approach could not explain the Electronic spectra, Magnetic moments, Reaction mechanisms of the complexes. Assumptions of CFT: 1. The central Metal cation is surrounded by ligand which contain one or more lone pair of electrons. 2. The ionic ligand (F-, Cl- etc.) are regarded as point charges and neutral molecules (H2O, NH3 etc.) as point dipoles. 3. The electrons of ligand does not enter metal orbital. Thus there is no orbital overlap takes place. 4. The bonding between metal and ligand is purely electrostatic i.e. only ionic interaction. The approach taken uses classical potential energy equations that take into account the attractive and repulsive interactions between charged particles (that is, Coulomb's Law interactions).

Johnson 1,2,* 1 Department of Neuroscience, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15260, USA; [email protected] (M.B.P.); [email protected] (A.N.) 2 Center for Neuroscience, University of Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh, PA 15260, USA * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-(412)-624-4295 Received: 27 October 2020; Accepted: 26 November 2020; Published: 1 December 2020 Abstract: Drugs that inhibit ion channel function by binding in the channel and preventing current flow, known as channel blockers, can be used as powerful tools for analysis of channel properties. Channel blockers are used to probe both the sophisticated structure and basic biophysical properties of ion channels. Gating, the mechanism that controls the opening and closing of ion channels, can be profoundly influenced by channel blocking drugs. Channel block and gating are reciprocally connected; gating controls access of channel blockers to their binding sites, and channel-blocking drugs can have profound and diverse effects on the rates of gating transitions and on the stability of channel open and closed states. This review synthesizes knowledge of the inherent intertwining of block and gating of excitatory ligand-gated ion channels, with a focus on the utility of channel blockers as analytic probes of ionotropic glutamate receptor channel function. Keywords: ligand-gated ion channel; channel block; channel gating; nicotinic acetylcholine receptor; ionotropic glutamate receptor; AMPA receptor; kainate receptor; NMDA receptor 1. Introduction Neuronal information processing depends on the distribution and properties of the ion channels found in neuronal membranes.

Organometallic chemistry combines aspects of inorganic chemistry and organic chemistry. Organometallic compounds find practical use in stoichiometric and catalytically active compounds. Electron counting is key in understanding organometallic chemistry. The 18-electron rule is helpful in predicting the stabilities of organometallic compounds. Organometallic compounds which have 18 electrons (filled s, p, and d orbitals) are relatively stable. This suggests the compound is isolable, but it can result in the compound being inert. 13-1 Historical Background In attempt to synthesize fulvalene Produced an orange solid (ferrocene) Discovery of ferrocene began the era of modern organometallic chemistry.

  • High Spin Or Low Spin?
    Central Tenants of Crystal Field Theory • The metals (Lewis acids) have d orbitals that are partially filled with electrons. • Ligands, that are Lewis bases with lone pairs, come in and form a covalent bond. • Electrostatic repulsion between the ligand lone pairs with the d-orbital subshell leads to higher energies • Each metal orbital will either be stabilized or destabilized depending on the amount of orbital overlap with the ligand.

  • Intriguing Role of Water in Protein-Ligand Binding Studied by Neutron Crystallography on Trypsin Complexes
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-05769-2 OPEN Intriguing role of water in protein-ligand binding studied by neutron crystallography on trypsin complexes Johannes Schiebel1,2, Roberto Gaspari2, Tobias Wulsdorf1, Khang Ngo1, Christian Sohn1, Tobias E. Schrader 3, Andrea Cavalli2, Andreas Ostermann 4, Andreas Heine1 & Gerhard Klebe1 fi 1234567890():,; Hydrogen bonds are key interactions determining protein-ligand binding af nity and therefore fundamental to any biological process. Unfortunately, explicit structural information about hydrogen positions and thus H-bonds in protein-ligand complexes is extremely rare and similarly the important role of water during binding remains poorly understood. Here, we report on neutron structures of trypsin determined at very high resolutions ≤1.5 Å in uncomplexed and inhibited state complemented by X-ray and thermodynamic data and computer simulations. Our structures show the precise geometry of H-bonds between protein and the inhibitors N-amidinopiperidine and benzamidine along with the dynamics of the residual solvation pattern. Prior to binding, the ligand-free binding pocket is occupied by water molecules characterized by a paucity of H-bonds and high mobility resulting in an imperfect hydration of the critical residue Asp189. This phenomenon likely constitutes a key factor fueling ligand binding via water displacement and helps improving our current view on water influencing protein–ligand recognition. 1 Institut für Pharmazeutische Chemie, Philipps-Universität Marburg, Marbacher Weg 6, 35032 Marburg, Germany. 2 Computational Sciences, Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia, Via Morego 30, 16163 Genova, Italy. 3 Jülich Centre for Neutron Science at Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum, Forschungszentrum Jülich, Lichtenbergstraße 1, 85748 Garching, Germany. 4 Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Zentrum, Technische Universität München, Lichtenbergstraße 1, 85748 Garching, Germany.

  • Ligand-Based Carbon-Nitrogen Bond Forming Reactions of Metal
    Ligand-Based CarbonÀNitrogen Bond Forming Reactions of Metal Dinitrosyl Complexes with Alkenes and Their Application to CÀH Bond Functionalization CHEN ZHAO, MARK R. CRIMMIN, F. DEAN TOSTE,* AND ROBERT G. BERGMAN* Department of Chemistry, University of California, Berkeley, Berkeley, California, 94720-1460, United States RECEIVED ON JULY 29, 2013 CONSPECTUS ver the past few decades, researchers have made substan- O tial progress in the development of transition metal com- plexes that activate and functionalize CÀH bonds. For the most part, chemists have focused on aliphatic and aromatic CÀH bonds and have put less effort into complexes that activate and function- alize vinylic CÀH bonds. Our groups have recently developed a novel method to functionalize vinylic CÀH bonds that takes advantage of the unique ligand-based reactivity of a rare class of metal dinitrosyl complexes. In this Account, we compare and discuss the chemistry of cobalt and ruthenium dinitrosyl complexes, emphasizing alkene binding, CÀH functionalization, and catalysis. Initially discovered in the early 1970s by Brunner and studied more extensively in the 1980s by the Bergman group, the cyclopentadienylcobalt dinitrosyl complex CpCo(NO)2 reacts rever- sibly with alkenes to give, in many cases, stable and isolable cobalt dinitrosoalkane complexes. More recently, we found that treatment with strong bases, such as lithium hexamethyldisilazide, Verkade's base, and phosphazene bases, deprotonates these complexes and renders them nucleophilic at the carbon r to the nitroso group. This conjugate anion of metal dinitrosoalkanes can participate in conjugate addition to Michael acceptors to form new carbonÀcarbon bonds. These functionalized cobalt complexes can further react through alkene exchange to furnish the overall vinylic CÀH functionalized organic product.

D. Bhatt / Selected topics in coordination chemistry / 2 MODULE 1: METAL CARBONYLS LECTURE #1 1. INTRODUCTION: Justus von Liebig attempted initial experiments on reaction of carbon monoxide with metals in 1834. However, it was demonstrated later that the compound he claimed to be potassium carbonyl was not a metal carbonyl at all. After the synthesis of [PtCl2(CO)2] and [PtCl2(CO)]2 reported by Schutzenberger (1868) followed by [Ni(CO)4] reported by Mond et al (1890), Hieber prepared numerous compounds containing metal and carbon monoxide. Compounds having at least one bond between carbon and metal are known as organometallic compounds. Metal carbonyls are the transition metal complexes of carbon monoxide containing metal-carbon bond. Lone pair of electrons are available on both carbon and oxygen atoms of carbon monoxide ligand. However, as the carbon atoms donate electrons to the metal, these complexes are named as carbonyls. A variety of such complexes such as mono nuclear, poly nuclear, homoleptic and mixed ligand are known. These compounds are widely studied due to industrial importance, catalytic properties and structural interest. V. D. Bhatt / Selected topics in coordination chemistry / 3 Carbon monoxide is one of the most important π- acceptor ligand. Because of its π- acidity, carbon monoxide can stabilize zero formal oxidation state of metals in carbonyl complexes. 2.
