Corey Glossary B Bent metallocenes: In bent metallocenes, the ring systems coordinated to the metal are not parallel, but are tilted at an angle. C Comproportionation: Comproportionation or symproportionation is a chemical reaction where two reactants, each containing the same element but with a different oxidation number, will form a product in which the elements involved reach the same oxidation number. D Decomposition: Decomposition is the process by which organic substances are broken down into a much simpler form of matter. Dimer: A dimer is an oligomer consisting of two structurally similar monomers joined by bonds that can be either strong or weak, covalent or intermolecular. Disproportionation: Disproportionation is a specific type of redox reaction in which a species is simultaneously reduced and oxidised to form two different products. F CHEMISTRY Paper No. 14: Organic Chemistry- IV (Advanced Organic Synthesis, supramolecular chemistry and carbocyclic rings) Module No. 31: Metallocenes Ferrocene: Ferrocene is an organometallic compound with the formula Fe(C₅H₅)₂. It is the prototypical metallocene, a type of organometallic chemical compound consisting of two cyclopentadienyl rings bound on opposite sides of a central metal atom. H Half sandwich compounds: Half sandwich compounds are organometallic complexes that feature a cyclic polyhapto ligand bound to an MLn center, where L is a unidentate ligand. Thousands of such complexes are known. Hapticity: Hapticity is the coordination of a ligand to a metal center via an uninterrupted and contiguous series of atoms. The hapticity of a ligand is described with the Greek letter η ('eta'). L Ligands: Ligands are ions or neutral molecules that bond to a central metal atom or ion. Ligands act as Lewis bases (electron pair donors), and the central atom acts as a Lewis acid (electron pair acceptor). Ligands have at least one donor atom with an electron pair used to form covalent bonds with the central atom. M Metallocene: A metallocene is a compound typically consisting of two cyclopentadienyl anions bound to a metal center in the oxidation state II, with the resulting general formula (C₅H₅)₂M. S Salt metathesis reaction: A salt metathesis reaction sometimes called a double replacement reaction or double displacement reaction, is a chemical process involving the exchange of bonds between two reacting chemical species, which results in the creation of products with similar or identical bonding affiliations Sandwich compound: In organometallic chemistry, a sandwich compound is a chemical compound featuring a metal bound by haptic covalent bonds to two arene ligands. T Transition elements: The transition elements are those elements having a partially filled d or f subshell in any common oxidation state. Value addition CHEMISTRY Paper No. 14: Organic Chemistry- IV (Advanced Organic Synthesis, supramolecular chemistry and carbocyclic rings) Module No. 31: Metallocenes History of Meallocene The first metallocene to be classified was ferrocene, and was discovered simultaneously in 1951 by Keally and Pauson, and Miller et al. Keally and Pauson were attempting to synthesize fulvalene through the oxidation of a cyclopentadienyl salt with anhydrous FeCl3 but obtained instead the substance C10H10Fe At the same time, Miller et al reported the same iron product from a reaction of cyclopentadiene with iron in the presence of aluminum, potassium, or molybdenum oxides. The structure of "C10H10Fe" was determined by Wilkinson et al. and by Fischer et al. These two were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1973 for their work on sandwich compounds, including the structural determination of ferrocene. They determined that the carbon atoms of the cyclopentadienyl (Cp) ligand contributed equally to the bonding and that bonding occurred due to the metal d-orbitals and the π-electrons in the p-orbitals of the Cp ligands. This complex is now known as ferrocene and the group of transition metal dicyclopentadienyl compounds is known as metallocenes and have the general formula [(η5- C5H5)2M]. Fischer et al. first prepared the ferrocene derivatives involving Co and Ni. Often derived from substituted derivatives of cyclopentadienide, metallocenes of many elements have been prepared.

Numerous studies have been carried out to provide an understanding of the nature of its reactivity pattern. There is now a need for a concise and general, but detailed and up-to-date, overview. The basic principles behind EAS are essential to our understanding of what the mechanisms underlying EAS are. To date, textbook overviews of EAS have provided little information about the Received 5th October 2020, mechanistic pathways and chemical species involved. In this review, the aim is to gather and present the Accepted 21st December 2020 up-to-date information relating to reactivity in EAS, with the implication that some of the key concepts DOI: 10.1039/d0cp05245k will be discussed in a scientifically concise manner.

    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.

  • Organometrallic Chemistry
    CHE 425: ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY SOURCE: OPEN ACCESS FROM INTERNET; Striver and Atkins Inorganic Chemistry Lecturer: Prof. O. G. Adeyemi ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY Definitions: Organometallic compounds are compounds that possess one or more metal-carbon bond. The bond must be “ionic or covalent, localized or delocalized between one or more carbon atoms of an organic group or molecule and a transition, lanthanide, actinide, or main group metal atom.” Organometallic chemistry is often described as a bridge between organic and inorganic chemistry. Organometallic compounds are very important in the chemical industry, as a number of them are used as industrial catalysts and as a route to synthesizing drugs that would not have been possible using purely organic synthetic routes. Coordinative unsaturation is a term used to describe a complex that has one or more open coordination sites where another ligand can be accommodated. Coordinative unsaturation is a very important concept in organotrasition metal chemistry. Hapticity of a ligand is the number of atoms that are directly bonded to the metal centre. Hapticity is denoted with a Greek letter η (eta) and the number of bonds a ligand has with a metal centre is indicated as a superscript, thus η1, η2, η3, ηn for hapticity 1, 2, 3, and n respectively. Bridging ligands are normally preceded by μ, with a subscript to indicate the number of metal centres it bridges, e.g. μ2–CO for a CO that bridges two metal centres. Ambidentate ligands are polydentate ligands that can coordinate to the metal centre through one or more atoms. – – – For example CN can coordinate via C or N; SCN via S or N; NO2 via N or N.

  • 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.

Since then, a number of sandwich and half sandwich complexes were predicted and synthesized. Herein, we have theoretically proposed a series of half-sandwich complexes involving a neutral Be3 ring and transition metal. Quantum chemical calculations have shown that the proposed complexes are quite stable involving high bond dissociation energies. The thermodynamics of their formation is also favorable. The Be3 ring in all cases posses dual aromaticity which has been ascertained based on magnetic as well as topological feature of electron density. Introduction Discovery of the rst sandwich complex (C5H5)2Fe, commonly known as “ferrocene”, drew the attention of the chemistry fraternity in no time [1–3].

  • A Ladder Polysilane As a Template for Folding Palladium Nanosheets
    ARTICLE Received 15 Mar 2013 | Accepted 15 May 2013 | Published 14 Jun 2013 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms3014 A ladder polysilane as a template for folding palladium nanosheets Yusuke Sunada1,2, Ryohei Haige2, Kyohei Otsuka3, Soichiro Kyushin3 & Hideo Nagashima1,2 Although discrete nano-sized compounds consisting of a monolayer sheet of multiple atoms have attracted much attention, monolayer transition metal nanosheets are difficult to access. Here we report a template synthesis of the folding metal nanosheet (2) consisting of 11 palladium atoms by treatment of a ladder polysilane, decaisopropylbicyclo[2.2.0]hexasilane t (1), with Pd(CN Bu)2. Crystallographic analysis reveals that the compound is composed of two monolayer Pd7 sheets sharing three palladium atoms at the junction. Each Pd atom is stabilized by Pd–Si s-bonds, Pd–Pd bonds and coordination of isocyanides. Ligand exchange t of 2 from CN Bu to CN(2,4,6-Me3-C6H2) is accompanied by structural rearrangement, leading to the formation of another folding Pd11 nanosheet (3) consisting of two edge-sharing Pd7 sheets. The shapes of the Pd7 sheets as well as the dihedral angle between the two Pd7 sheets are dependent on the substituent of the isocyanide ligand. 1 Institute for Materials Chemistry and Engineering, Kyushu University and CREST, Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST), Kasuga, Fukuoka 816-8580, Japan. 2 Graduate School of Engineering Sciences, Kyushu University, 6-1 Kasugakoen, Kasuga, Fukuoka 816-8580, Japan. 3 Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Graduate School of Engineering, Gunma University, Kiryu, Gunma 376-8515, Japan.
