Grignard’s name is forever engraved in the history of chemistry for the reaction of magnesium with organic halides RX leading, by oxidative addition, to Grignard reagent RMgX that can alkylate carbonyl derivatives. MgR’COR’’ RX RMgX RR’R’’COH Et2O This discovery had an enormous impact, not only on organic chemistry, but also proved to be of considerable importance in transition-metal organometallic chemis- try. For instance, in 1919, Hein synthesized what he believed to be a polyphenyl- chromium derivative [(Cr(!-Ph)n]: !0,+1 CrCl3 + PhMgBr [Cr(!-Ph)n] n = 2, 3 or 4 However, some 36 years later, it was revealed that the compound posseses a " sandwich-type structure. The first half of the XXth century was especially noteworthy for the emergence of catalysis. The distinction between homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis was first delineated by the French chemist Paul Sabatier (one of Berthelot’s students). Sabatier and Senderens’ work on the heterogeneous hydrogenation of olefins to saturated hydrocarbons using nickel eventually led to a Nobel Prize shared in 1912 between Sabatier and Grignard. Many seminal discoveries, however, were made in Germany during this first half of the XXth century. In 1922, Fischer and Tropsch reported the heterogeneously catalyzed reaction between CO and H2 (syngas) to form mixtures of linear alkanes and alkenes with few oxygenates as by-products (Fischer-Tropsch process, industrially developed in 1925). In 1938, Roelen dis- covered the catalysis by [Co2(CO)8] of the hydroformylation of olefins by CO and H2 (oxo process). From 1939 to the late 1940s, Reppe worked on the catalysis of transformation of alkynes (tetramerization to cyclo-octatetraene, 1948). Curiously, there were only a few advances in the discovery of new complexes dur- ing this period. Besides iodotrimethylplatinum, [PtMe3I], synthesized by Pope at the th 4 beginning of the XX century, the list includes [Fe(# -butadiene)(CO)3] made by Reilhen in 1930 and Hieber’s work on metal carbonyls from 1928 onwards (e.g. the synthesis of [Fe(H)2(CO)4], 1931). HISTORY OF ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY 7 H H3C CH3 OC CO Pt Fe Fe H3C I OC CO OC CO CO H First ␴-alkyl-metal complex First diene-complex First metal-hydride complex Pope, 1909 Reilhen, 1930 Hieber, 1931 1950-1960: THE DISCOVERY OF FERROCENE AND THE BOOM OF ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY It is in the 1950s that inorganic and organometallic chemistry boomed, especially in the United States. Henry Taube classified the inorganic complexes as inert or labile towards substitution reactions, depending on the nature of the ligand and oxidation state of the metal (1951). This work laid the foundation of molecular engineering that allowed him to carry out a crucial series of experiments: the catalysis of sub- stitution reactions by electron or atom transfer, and the distinction between outer- sphere electron transfer and that proceeding by the inner sphere which is considerably faster (1953). Structural bio-organometallic chemistry has its origin with the English chemist Dorothy Crowfoot-Hodgkin who established the X-ray crystal structure of Vitamin B12 coenzyme between 1953 and 1961 using a primitiVe computer, resulting in her awarding the Nobel Prize in 1964. ConsecutiVely, the legendary HarVard UniVersity chemist Robert B. Woodward achieVed the total synthesis of this coenzyme in 70!steps with 99 co-workers from 1961 to 1972. In England too, seVeral chemists had noted, at the beginning of the 1950s, this Very stable orange powder that formed when cyclopentadiene is passed through iron tubings. Some chemists had eVen filled pots with it in their laboratory. Keally, Pauson and Miller first published the compound in 1951, and Pauson reported the structure [Fe(!-C5H5)2] in the journal Nature. In doing so, he made the same mis- take as Hein, 32 years earlier. In the meantime, howeVer, Sidgwick had published the 18-electron rule for transition-metal complexes in his book “!The Electronic Theory of Valency!” (Cornell UniVersity, Ithaca, 1927). Pauson’s proposed ! structure for bis-cyclopentadienyl-iron only had 10 Valence electrons and was soon challenged. At HarVard UniVersity, Willkinson and Woodward recognizing Sidgwick’s rule, immediately understood that the Pauson formulation was incorrect. A few months later, they published the first sandwich structure, just before Fischer: bis-cyclopentadienyl-iron is ferrocene, an 18-electron complex, in which the two rings are perfectly parallel, "-bound to the iron atom and haVing aromatic properties (1952). !

  • 1 Introduction to Early Main Group Organometallic Chemistry and Catalysis
    1 1 Introduction to Early Main Group Organometallic Chemistry and Catalysis Sjoerd Harder University Erlangen-Nürnberg, Inorganic and Organometallic Chemistry, Egerlandstrasse 1, 91058 Erlangen, Germany 1.1 Introduction Although organometallic complexes of the early main groups are well known for their very high reactivity and challenging isolation, they are among the first stud- ied during the pioneering beginnings of the field. Their high nucleophilicity and Brønsted basicity have made them to what they are today: strong polar reagents that are indispensible in modern organic synthesis. It is exactly this high reactivity that has made them potent catalysts for organic transformations that are gener- ally catalyzed by transition metal complexes. Despite their lack of partially filled d-orbitals and their inability to switch reversibly between oxidation states, the scope of their application in catalysis is astounding. As the early main group metal catalysis only started to become popular since the beginning of this century, it is still a young field with ample opportunities for further development. This intro- ductory chapter is specifically written for new graduate students in the field. It gives a very compact overview of the history of early main group organometallic chemistry, synthetic methods, bonding and structures, analytical methods, solu- tion dynamics, and some preliminary low-valent chemistry. This forms the basis for understanding their use in catalysis for which the basic steps are described in the second part of this chapter. For further in-depth information, the reader is referred to the individual chapters in this book. 1.2 s-Block Organometallics 1.2.1 Short History The organometallic chemistry of the highly electropositive early main group metals could not have started without the isolation of these elements in the metallic state.

    THE LONG SEARCH FOR STABLE TRANSITION METAL ALKYLS Nobel Lecture, December 11, 1973 by G EOFFREY W ILKINSON Imperial College of Science & Technology, London, England Chemical compounds in which there is a single bond between a saturated car- bon atom and a transition metal atom are of unusual importance. Quite aside from the significance and role in Nature of the cobalt to carbon bonds in the vitamin B 12 system and possible metal to carbon bonds in other biological systems, we need only consider that during the time taken to deliver this lec- ture, many thousands, if not tens of thousands of tons of chemical compounds are being transformed or synthesised industrially in processes which at some stage involve a transition metal to carbon bond. The nonchemist will pro- bably be most familiar with polyethylene or polypropylene in the form of do- mestic utensils, packaging materials, children’s toys and so on. These materials are made by Ziegler-Natta* or Philipps’ catalysis using titanium and chro- mium respectively. However, transition metal compounds are used as catalysts in the synthesis of synthetic rubbers and other polymers, and of a variety of simple compounds used as industrial solvents or intermediates. For example alcohols are made from olefins, carbon monoxide and hydrogen by use of cobalt or rhodium catalysts, acetic acid is made by carbonylation of methanol using rhodium catalysts and acrylonitrile is dimerised to adiponitrile (for nylon) by nickel catalysts. We should also not forget that the huge quantities of petroleum hydrocarbons processed by the oil and petrochemical industry are re-formed over platinum, platinum-rhenium or platinum-germanium sup- ported on alumina.

  • Iron-Catalysed Transformation of Molecular Dinitrogen Into Silylamine Under Ambient Conditions
    ARTICLE Received 6 Sep 2012 | Accepted 6 Nov 2012 | Published 4 Dec 2012 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms2264 Iron-catalysed transformation of molecular dinitrogen into silylamine under ambient conditions Masahiro Yuki1, Hiromasa Tanaka2, Kouitsu Sasaki1, Yoshihiro Miyake1, Kazunari Yoshizawa2 & Yoshiaki Nishibayashi1 Although stoichiometric transformations using transition metal–N2 complexes have been well investigated towards the goal of nitrogen fixation under mild reaction conditions, only a few examples of the catalytic transformations of N2 using transition metal–N2 complexes as catalysts have been reported. In almost all the catalytic systems, the use of Mo is essential to realize the catalytic transformation of N2, where Mo–N2 complexes are considered to work as effective catalysts. Here we show the first successful example of the Fe-catalysed transfor- mation of N2 into N(SiMe3)3 under ambient conditions, in which iron complexes such as iron pentacarbonyl [Fe(CO)5] and ferrocenes have been found to work as effective catalysts. A plausible reaction pathway is proposed, where Fe(II)–N2 complex bearing two Me3Si groups as ancillary ligands has an important role as a key reactive intermediate, with the aid of density-functional-theory calculations. 1 Institute of Engineering Innovation, School of Engineering, University of Tokyo, Yayoi, Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo 113-8656, Japan. 2 Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering, International Research Center for Molecular Systems, Kyushu University, Nishi-ku, Fukuoka 819-0395, Japan.

The interaction between the metals of the bimetallic catalyst and the structure of the bridged dimer can effectively reduce the steric hindrance effect and help speed up the reaction rate while ensuring the stability of the catalyst. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results show that rhodium accepts electrons from chlorine, thereby increasing the electron-rich nature of rhodium and improving the catalytic activity. This promotes the nucleophilic reaction of the catalyst with methyl iodide and reduces the reaction energy barrier. The methanol carbonylation performance of the Rh/Ru catalyst was evaluated, and the results show that the conversion rate of methyl acetate and the yield of acetic acid are 96.0% under certain conditions. Furthermore, during the catalysis, no precipitate is formed and the amount of water is greatly reduced.

  • Oxidative Addition of Polar Reagents
    OXIDATIVE ADDITION OF POLAR REAGENTS Organometallic chemistry has vastly expanded the practicing organic chemist’s notion of what makes a good nucleophile or electrophile. Pre-cross-coupling, for example, using unactivated aryl halides as electrophiles was largely a pipe dream (or possible only under certain specific circumstances). Enter the oxidative addition of polarized bonds: all of a sudden, compounds like bromobenzene started looking a lot more attractive as starting materials. Cross-coupling reactionsinvolving sp2- and sp-hybridized C–X bonds beautifully complement the “classical” substitution reactions at sp3electrophilic carbons. Oxidative addition of the C–X bond is the step that kicks off the magic of these methods. In this post, we’ll explore the mechanisms and favorability trends of oxidative additions of polar reagents. The landscape of mechanistic possibilities for polarized bonds is much more rich than in the non-polar case—concerted, ionic, and radical mechanisms have all been observed. Concerted Mechanisms 2 Oxidative additions of aryl and alkenyl Csp –X bonds, where X is a halogen or sulfonate, proceed through concertedmechanisms analogous to oxidative additions of dihydrogen. Reactions of N–H and O–H bonds in amines, alcohols, and water also appear to be concerted. A π complex involving η2-coordination is an intermediate in the mechanism of insertion into aryl halides at least, and probably vinyl halides too. As two open coordination sites are necessary for concerted oxidative addition, loss of a ligand from a saturated metal complex commonly precedes the actual oxidative addition event. Concerted oxidative addition of aryl halides and sulfonates. Trends in the reactivity of alkyl and aryl (pseudo)halides toward oxidative addition are some of the most famous in organometallic chemistry.
