  • Perspectives on How Nature Employs the Principles of Organometallic Chemistry in Dihydrogen Activation in Hydrogenases†

Gordon* and Gregory J. Kubas* Chemistry Division, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Los Alamos, New Mexico 87545, United States Received May 6, 2010 Relatively recent developments in metalloenzyme and organometallic chemistry have targeted a growing link between these outwardly incongruous fields, giving birth to a merger now popularly termed “bio-organometallic” chemistry. The astonishing discovery of CO and CN ligands bound to dinuclear iron sites in billion-year-old hydrogenase enzymes has led to a new paradigm and triggered an explosion of research on bioinspired chemistry. The article will focus on the impressive array of organometallic chemistry principles that work in concert in the structure and function of H2ases. Molecular H2 is at the forefront of bioinspired energy, and its production and storage are critical for renewable energy systems. Biomimetic inorganic chemistry and photochemistry involving water splitting for H2 production has erupted in the past decade and will also be reflected upon here. I. Introduction be despised and avoided by nature. This view was shattered by the relatively recent discovery, initially spectroscopically2,3 then At the macroscopic level, nature displays dazzling beauty crystallographically,4 of CO and CN ligands bound to dinuclear and surprises on a regular basis. On the molecular level, its iron sites in hydrogenase (H2ase) enzymes that have existed in mystique is even more fascinating to biologists and chemists numerous microorganisms for over a billion years.

  • EI-ICHI NEGISHI Herbert C
    MAGICAL POWER OF TRANSITION METALS: PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE Nobel Lecture, December 8, 2010 by EI-ICHI NEGISHI Herbert C. Brown Laboratories of Chemistry, Purdue University, 560 Oval Drive, West Lafayette, IN 47907-2084, U.S.A. Not long ago, the primary goal of the synthesis of complex natural products and related compounds of biological and medicinal interest was to be able to synthesize them, preferably before anyone else. While this still remains a very important goal, a number of today’s top-notch synthetic chemists must feel and even think that, given ample resources and time, they are capable of synthesizing virtually all natural products and many analogues thereof. Accepting this notion, what would then be the major goals of organic synthesis in the twenty-first century? One thing appears to be unmistakably certain. Namely, we will always need, perhaps increasingly so with time, the uniquely creative field of synthetic organic and organometallic chemistry to prepare both new and existing organic compounds for the benefit and well-being of mankind. It then seems reasonably clear that, in addition to the question of what compounds to synthesize, that of how best to synthesize them will become increasingly important. As some may have said, the primary goal would then shift from aiming to be the first to synthesize a given compound to seeking its ultimately satisfactory or “last synthesis”. If one carefully goes over various aspects of organic synthetic methodology, one would soon note how primitive and limited it had been until rather recently, or perhaps even today. For the sake of argument, we may propose here that the ultimate goal of organic synthesis is “to be able to synthesize any desired and fundamentally synthesizable organic compounds (a) in high yields, (b) efficiently (in as few steps as possible, for example), (c) selectively, preferably all in t98–99% selectivity, (d) economically, and (e) safely, abbreviated hereafter as the y(es)2 manner.” with or without catalyst R1M + R2X R1R2 + MX R1, R2: carbon groups.

  • Palladium-Catalysed Coupling Chemistry Palladium-Catalysed Coupling Chemistry
    Palladium-Catalysed Coupling Chemistry Palladium-Catalysed Coupling Chemistry Palladium catalysis has gained widespread use in industrial and academic synthetic chemistry laboratories as a powerful methodology for the formation of C-C and C-Heteroatom bonds. Several coupling reactions have been developed with different substrates: 1. SUZUKI-MIYAURA 2. STILLE 3. NEGISHI 4. KUMADA 5. HIYAMA 6. SONOGASHIRA 7. HECK 8. BUCHWALD-HARTWIG 9. CYANATION 10. CARBONYLATION 2 Understanding the catalytic cycle Most palladium catalysed reactions are believed to follow a similar catalytic cycle. The catalytic species can be formed in situ using a palladium source, such as Pd2(dba)3 or Pd(OAc)2 and the necessary ligand, or introduced as a preformed catalyst such as t Pd(PPh3)4 or Pd(P Bu3)2. Careful choice of ligand can facilitate two steps of the catalytic cycle. The use of strong σ-donating ligands, such as trialkylphosphines, increases electron density around the metal, accelerating the oxidative addition of the catalyst to the substrate. This is most commonly believed to be the rate determining step. Choice of ligand also determines the mechanism by which oxidative addition occurs.1 The elimination step is accelerated by the use of bulky ligands, in particular phosphine ligands exhibiting a large cone angle (also known as Tolman angle).2 Ligand Cone Angle (deg) Cat.

In the statutes of the Nobel Foundation it says: "If none of the works under consideration is found to be of the importance indicated in the first paragraph, the prize money shall be reserved until the following year. If, even then, the prize cannot be awarded, the amount shall be added to the Foundation's restricted funds." During World War I and II, fewer Nobel Prizes were awarded.

  • Bond Distances and Bond Orders in Binuclear Metal Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals Titanium Through Zinc
    Metal-Metal (MM) Bond Distances and Bond Orders in Binuclear Metal Complexes of the First Row Transition Metals Titanium Through Zinc Richard H. Duncan Lyngdoh*,a, Henry F. Schaefer III*,b and R. Bruce King*,b a Department of Chemistry, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong 793022, India B Centre for Computational Quantum Chemistry, University of Georgia, Athens GA 30602 ABSTRACT: This survey of metal-metal (MM) bond distances in binuclear complexes of the first row 3d-block elements reviews experimental and computational research on a wide range of such systems. The metals surveyed are titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, and zinc, representing the only comprehensive presentation of such results to date. Factors impacting MM bond lengths that are discussed here include (a) n+ the formal MM bond order, (b) size of the metal ion present in the bimetallic core (M2) , (c) the metal oxidation state, (d) effects of ligand basicity, coordination mode and number, and (e) steric effects of bulky ligands. Correlations between experimental and computational findings are examined wherever possible, often yielding good agreement for MM bond lengths. The formal bond order provides a key basis for assessing experimental and computationally derived MM bond lengths. The effects of change in the metal upon MM bond length ranges in binuclear complexes suggest trends for single, double, triple, and quadruple MM bonds which are related to the available information on metal atomic radii. It emerges that while specific factors for a limited range of complexes are found to have their expected impact in many cases, the assessment of the net effect of these factors is challenging.

Although the experimental synthetic protocol is well- established, the underlying mechanism for transmetalation is still unknown. In this work, we propose two different solvent-mediated reaction paths for the Ni transmetalation in Zn- MOF-5 lattices through density functional theory simulations. In both mechanisms, the bond strength between the exchanged metal and the solvent is the key descriptor that controls the degree of transmetalation. We also show that the role of the solvent in this process is twofold: it initially promotes Zn exchange, but if the metal−solvent bond is too strong, it blocks the second transmetalation cycle by restricting the lattice flexibility. The competition between these two effects leads the degree of incorporation of metal into MOF-5 to display a volcano-type dependence with respect to the metal−solvent bond strength for different transition metal ions. ■ INTRODUCTION PSIM.26 Nevertheless, the dependence on the ligand field was The easiness with which metal−organic frameworks (MOFs)1 found to be opposite for Ni inserting into MOF-5 and Co into MFU-4l.
