Poplaukhin, B.S. ************ The Ohio State University, 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Sheldon G. Shore, Adviser _______________________ Professor Claudia Turro Advisor Professor Yiying Wu Professor Richard A. Miller Graduate Program in Chemistry ABSTRACT New carbonyl complexes of divalent ytterbium and transition metals of groups 6, 7 of the periodic table have been prepared. The syntheses were carried out in systematic fashion with the aim of establishing general procedures suitable for preparation of a range of compounds of this type. The products obtained were characterized by means of IR spectroscopy and X-ray single crystal diffraction. Nineteen X-ray structures are reported herein, of which only one has been published before. The compounds studied can be divided into two major groups: the solvent-separated ion pairs, where the YbII cation is surrounded with solvent molecules acting as ligands, preventing interaction with the metal carbonylate anion; and complexes with the bridging carbonyl ligands (isocarbonyl ligands), where the cation and the anion are bound together through a –CO- link. New instances of condensation of the solvent-separated ion pairs into the isocarbonyl complexes have been discovered, and the mechanism for such transformation was 2- proposed. The novel [Hg(W(CO)5)2] anion was discovered and characterized by X-ray single crystal diffraction. Its reactivity was briefly investigated. ii Посвящаю моим родителям Dedicated to my parents iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank all the wonderful friends that I made during my stay here at OSU. This thesis would not be possible without their help and support. I wish to express my gratitude to my parents also, whose love and support I could sense all this time, no matter the distance. I am obviously indebted to Dr. Sheldon Shore for his advice, financial support, and remarkable freedom that I and my fellow coworkers enjoyed in his research group. I also cannot fail to mention Dr. Shore’s jokes and his easy-going personality, qualities that helped everyone working under his guidance. My special thanks go to Dr. Xuenian Chen, who was a true friend and teacher all these years. His knowledge, experience and almost unbelievable patience made this thesis possible. I am grateful to Dr. Edward A. Meyers for his inestimable help with X-ray structure determinations and many interesting conversations we held along the way. I thank Dr. Shengming Liu for teaching me many laboratory techniques and helping with X-ray, as well as being a great person to talk to. And I also want to thank all Shore group members that I worked with. It was fun to get to know you guys! iv VITA December 5, 1976……………...…Born – Biysk, Russia 1999…………………………….…B.S.

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.

  • Application Note 33
    Application Note 33 : Chromium Arene Synthesis This application note demonstrates the preparation of arene chromium tricarbonyl complexes using 6 continuous-flow processing: ( η -C6H5CH 3)Cr(CO) 3 as an example. Scheme 1 Background Arene chromium tricarbonyl complexes, (arene)Cr(CO)3, have found extensive use in organic synthesis [ i,ii ]. The coordination of an aromatic ring to the chromium tricarbonyl unit has a profound effect on its reactivity. Due to the electron withdrawing nature of the Cr(CO) 3 moiety, nucleophilic substitution reactions can be performed on the aromatic ring. The electron-deficient ring is able to stabilize negative charge, allowing both ring and benzylic deprotonation. In addition, the chromium unit effectively blocks one side of the ring and this directs incoming reagents to the face opposite the metal. The preparation of chromium arene complexes generally involves heating chromium hexacarbonyl under reflux either in the arene as the solvent or in a high boiling solvent containing the arene (Scheme 1) [ iii ,iv ]. Reactions can take in the order of 1-4 days to reach completion and need to be performed under an inert atmosphere. The procedure is complicated by the sublimation of Cr(CO) 6 as well as the competitive decomposition of the arene chromium product over time. This can be somewhat overcome by heating a 1 : 1 mixture of arene and Cr(CO) 6 in a mixture of dibutyl ether and heptane in the presence of little tetrahydrofuran [ v]. R R ∆ Cr(CO)6 + OC Cr CO OC Scheme 2: Conventional preparation of (arene)Cr(CO)3 complexes VT1011-1 - 1 - Using butyl acetate as an additive, the reaction time can be decreased through the implementation vi of a special double-condenser apparatus [ ].

  • Time-Resolved UV-IR Experiments That Suggest Photoactivated Fe-Cu
    Time-Resolved UV-IR Experiments that Suggest Photoactivated Fe-Cu Dinuclear Catalyst Kyle J. Clark, ‡ Jacob T. Davis,‡ Doo-Hyun Kwon, ‡ Erin E. Martinez, Michael R. Talley, David J. Michaelis,* Daniel H. Ess,* and Matthew C. Asplund* Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah 84602 USA 1 ABSTRACT Heterodinuclear complexes with a direct metal-metal bond offer the possibility of unique mechanisms and intermediates. The Cp(CO)2Fe-Cu(IPr) (IPr = N,N-bis(2,6- diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene) heterodinuclear complex 1 is known to photochemically catalyze arene borylation. To examine possible initial steps of photo-initiated catalysis, we synthesized a triethylsilyl-substituted Fe-Cu catalyst that provided cyclohexane solubility to conduct time-resolved UV-IR studies. Time-resolved vibrational spectroscopic measurements suggest that photolysis of 1 stimulates CO dissociation without Fe-Cu metal-metal bond cleavage. This suggests that arene borylation catalysis may begin with a photochemical step rather than a relatively endothermic cleavage of the Fe-Cu bond. A new possible catalytic cycle is proposed. 2 INTRODUCTION Compared to catalysts with a single metal and ligand framework, transition-metal heterodinuclear catalysts with a direct metal-metal bond offer the potential of unique mechanisms and intermediates, oxidation states, reactivity, and selectivity, especially for bond activation reactions (Scheme 1a).1 This divergent reactivity results from the ability of substrates to be activated across two

We found that diyne ligands undergo coordination to the labile rhenium dinuclear Accepted 3 December 2018 in bridging or chelate modes, however, the formation of metallacyclopentadiene complexes was favor- Available online 4 December 2018 ably observed. All products were fully characterized by IR, NMR, ESI-MS, UVeVis and fluorescence spectroscopy.
