  • The Chemistry of Carbene-Stabilized
    THE CHEMISTRY OF CARBENE-STABILIZED MAIN GROUP DIATOMIC ALLOTROPES by MARIHAM ABRAHAM (Under the Direction of Gregory H. Robinson) ABSTRACT The syntheses and molecular structures of carbene-stabilized arsenic derivatives of 1 1 i 1 1 AsCl3 (L :AsCl3 (1); L : = :C{N(2,6- Pr2C6H3)CH}2), and As2 (L :As–As:L (2)), are presented herein. The potassium graphite reduction of 1 afforded the carbene-stabilized diarsenic complex, 2. Notably, compound 2 is the first Lewis base stabilized diatomic molecule of the Group 13–15 elements, in the formal oxidation state of zero, in the fourth period or lower of the Periodic Table. Compound 2 contains one As–As σ-bond and two lone pairs of electrons on each arsenic atom. In an effort to study the chemistry of the electron-rich compound 2, it was combined with an electron-deficient Lewis acid, GaCl3. The addition of two equivalents of GaCl3 to 2 resulted in one-electron oxidation of 2 to 1 1 •+ – •+ – give [L :As As:L ] [GaCl4] (6 [GaCl4] ). Conversely, the addition of four equivalents of GaCl3 to 2 resulted in two- electron oxidation of 2 to give 1 1 2+ – 2+ – •+ [L :As=As:L ] [GaCl4 ]2 (6 [GaCl4 ]2). Strikingly, 6 represents the first arsenic radical to be structurally characterized in the solid state. The research project also explored the reactivity of carbene-stabilized disilicon, (L1:Si=Si:L1 (7)), with borane. The reaction of 7 with BH3·THF afforded two unique compounds: one containing a parent silylene (:SiH2) unit (8), and another containing a three-membered silylene ring (9).

The meeting was a great success with more than 150 participants, which included about 60 students. The informal atmosphere, leading to vibrant scientific discussions, showed how well integrated the South and North American photochemical communities are. The participation of so many young photochemists bodes well for the future of the photosciences and of the society.

  • Intermediate Oxidation State Tungsten Acetylacetonate Complexes
    Intermediate Oxidation State Tungsten Acetylacetonate Complexes Chetna Khosla A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Chemistry. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Joseph L. Templeton Reader: Professor Maurice Brookhart Reader: Professor Cynthia Schauer Professor Valerie Ashby Professor H. Holden Thorp ABSTRACT Chetna Khosla: INTERMEDIATE OXIDATION STATE TUNGSTEN ACETYLACETONATE COMPLEXES (Under the direction of Professor Joseph L. Templeton) Previous work with tungsten(II) acetylacetonate complexes has focused on synthesis of complexes with -bound ligands (alkyne, nitrile, imine, ketone, aldehyde). In this work, 2 addition of methyl triflate (MeOTf) to W(CO)(acac)2(η -N≡CPh) produces the iminoacyl 2 complex [W(CO)acac)2(η -MeN=CPh)][OTf]. Displacement of the carbon monoxide in 2 + [W(CO)(acac)2(η -MeN≡CPh)] by isonitriles, bulky phosphines, and alkynes has been accomplished. The substitution of carbon monoxide by alkyne relieves the iminoacyl ligand of its role as a four-electron donor and enables further reduction of the C-N based ligand. Use 2 + of Na[HB(OMe)3] as a hydride source that attacks [W(RC≡CR′)(acac)2(η -MeN=CPh)] 2 yields the imine complex W(RC≡CR′)(acac)2(η -MeN=CHPh) with a diastereoselective ratio of 2:1. Addition of MeOTf leads to the final tungsten(II) iminium complex 2 [W(RC≡CR′)(acac)2(η -Me2N=CHPh)][OTf]. 2 Addition of m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (MCPBA) to W(CO)(acac)2(η -N≡CR) 2 2 results in oxidation of the metal center to form the W(IV) d metal complex W(O)(acac)2(η - N≡CR).

  • Bonding and Structure of Disilenes and Related Unsaturated Group-14 Element Compounds
    No. 5] Proc. Jpn. Acad., Ser. B 88 (2012) 167 Review Bonding and structure of disilenes and related unsaturated group-14 element compounds † By Mitsuo KIRA*1, (Communicated by Hitosi NOZAKI, M.J.A.) Abstract: Structure and properties of silicon-silicon doubly bonded compounds (disilenes) are shown to be remarkably different from those of alkenes. X-Ray structural analysis of a series of acyclic tetrakis(trialkylsilyl)disilenes has shown that the geometry of these disilenes is quite flexible, and planar, twist or trans-bent depending on the bulkiness and shape of the trialkylsilyl substituents. Thermal and photochemical interconversion between a cyclotetrasilene and the corresponding bicyclo[1.1.0]tetrasilane occurs via either 1,2-silyl migration or a concerted electrocyclic reaction depending on the ring substituents without intermediacy of the corresponding tetrasila-1,3-diene. Theoretical and spectroscopic studies of a stable spiropentasiladiene have revealed a unique feature of the spiroconjugation in this system. Starting with a stable dialkylsilylene, a number of elaborated disilenes including trisilaallene and its germanium congeners are synthesized. Unlike carbon allenes, the trisilaallene has remarkably bent and fluxional geometry, suggesting the importance of the :-<* orbital mixing. 14-Electron three-coordinate disilene- palladium complexes are found to have much stronger :-complex character than related 16-electron tetracoordinate complexes. Keywords: silicon, germanium, double bond, synthesis, structure, theoretical calculations

PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA PREFACE TO THE SERIES In the course of nearly every program of research in organic chemistry the investigator finds it necessary to use several of the better-known synthetic reactions. To discover the optimum conditions for the appli­ cation of even the most familiar one to a compound not previously subjected to the reaction often requires an extensive search of the liter­ ature; even then a series of experiments may be necessary. When the results of the investigation are published, the synthesis, which may have required months of work, is usually described without comment. The background of knowledge and experience gained in the literature search and experimentation is thus lost to those who subsequently have occasion to apply the general method. The student of preparative organic chemistry faces similar difficulties. The textbooks and labora­ tory manuals furnish numerous examples of the application of various syntheses, but only rarely do they convey an accurate conception of the scope and usefulness of the processes. For many years American organic chemists have discussed these problems.

This Minireview aims to highlight the potential ity of homodiatomic double and triple bonds realised within of these complexes towards catalytic application and their the p-block, along with many heterodiatomic combinations, role as synthons in further functionalisations making them a this Minireview examines the reactivity of these compounds versatile tool for the modern synthetic chemist. with a particular emphasis on small molecule activation.

For example in group 14, SnII is more stable veloped since the isolation of the first silicon-silicon double than SnIV, whilst for the lightest congener CIV is more stable bond. West’s disilene[1] broke the so called “double-bond” rule, than CII. This can also influence the complex formation in both in which it was thought that p-block elements with a principal the solution and solid state as highlighted by Lappert’s quantum number greater than two (i.e.
