  • Preparation and Characterization of Iridium Hydride and Dihydrogen Complexes Relevant to Biomass Deoxygenation
    Preparation and Characterization of Iridium Hydride and Dihydrogen Complexes Relevant to Biomass Deoxygenation Jonathan M. Goldberg A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2017 Reading Committee: D. Michael Heinekey, Chair Karen I. Goldberg, Chair Brandi M. Cossairt Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Department of Chemistry © Copyright 2017 Jonathan M. Goldberg University of Washington Abstract Preparation and Characterization of Iridium Hydride and Dihydrogen Complexes Relevant to Biomass Deoxygenation Jonathan M. Goldberg Chairs of the Supervisory Committee: Professor D. Michael Heinekey Professor Karen I. Goldberg Department of Chemistry This thesis describes the fundamental organometallic reactivity of iridium pincer complexes and their applications to glycerol deoxygenation catalysis. These investigations provide support for each step of a previously proposed glycerol deoxygenation mechanism. Chapter 1 outlines the motivations for this work, specifically the goal of using biomass as a chemical feedstock over more common petroleum-based sources. A discussion of the importance of transforming glycerol to higher value products, such as 1,3-propanediol, is discussed. Chapter 2 describes investigations into the importance of pincer ligand steric factors on the coordination chemistry of the iridium metal center. Full characterization of a five-coordinate iridium-hydride complex is presented; this species was previously proposed to be a catalyst resting state for glycerol deoxygenation. Chapter 3 investigates hydrogen addition to R4(POCOP)Ir(CO) R4 3 t i R4 R4 3 [ POCOP = κ -C6H3-2,6-(OPR2)2 for R = Bu, Pr] and (PCP)Ir(CO) [ (PCP) = κ -C6H3-2,6- t i (CH2PR2)2 for R = Bu, Pr] to give cis- and/or trans-dihydride complexes.

The stably optimized cyclic structures of the complexes are displayed in figure 1, with interaction energies as table 1. The blue shift of the N5-H7 bond stretching frequencies is observed in the B9-H4...H7-N5 dihydrogen bonds for BH2NH2...HNO and BH2NH2...HNS, corresponding to contraction of the N5-H7 bonds (except for slight elongation of the N5-H7 bond found in the complex BH2NH2...HNS), increase of stretching frequencies and decrease of infrared intensities respectively.

  • A Semiempirical Potential Model for H-Terminated Functionalized Surface of Porous Silicon
    Digest Journal of Nanomaterials and Biostructures Vol. 5, No 4, October-December 2010, p. 947-957 A SEMIEMPIRICAL POTENTIAL MODEL FOR H-TERMINATED FUNCTIONALIZED SURFACE OF POROUS SILICON A. IOANID, M. DIEACONU, S. ANTOHE Faculty of Physics, University of Bucharest, Bucharest-Magurele, Romania A semiempirical potential model for functionalized surface of porous silicon has been devised. Considering both the Lennard-Jones and electrostatic contributions for the silicon surface-water and water-water interactions, we have shown that it is probable a Si-H...H-O dihydrogen bond between silicon surface and the interfacial water molecule. Due to their - strong reducing character the (Si3)-H silyl anion behaves as an acceptor of proton. This non-conventional dihydrogen bond between silicon surface and interfacial water is competitive with the classical hydrogen bond of between interfacial water-water molecules so that reduces hydrophobicity of surface. (Received October 1, 2010; accepted October 26, 2010) Keywords: Functionalized surface, porous silicon, dihydrogen bond, silyl anion, hydrophobicity 1. Introduction Porous Silicon (PS) is a redutable biomaterial for devices with potential impact in biological and medical applications concerning detection, transport and interactions of the macromolecules, due to the great ratio surface/volume and to the amphoter (hydrophobic/ hidrophylic) properties of their functionalizated surface. Biocompatibility is the ability of a material to interface by adsorption of a layer of protein, with a biological environment without provoking a defence response. PS can be either a bioactive, a bioinert or a resorbable material, depending on the morphological, chemical and electrical characteristics of the surface layer and those of the biological environment in which it is inserted [1].

  • Reactivity of a Ruthenium Bis(Dinitrogen) Complex
    Reactivity of a Ruthenium Bis(Dinitrogen) Complex By Samantha Lau July 2018 Department of Chemistry Imperial College London A thesis submitted for Doctorate of Philosophy Declaration of Originality The work discussed in this thesis was conducted in the Department of Chemistry, Imperial College London, between October 2014 and April 2018.

[1] Abstract This thesis investigated the reactivity of the ruthenium bis(dinitrogen) complex [Ru(H)2(N2)2(PCy3)2] 2 (1), an analogue of the ruthenium bis(dihydrogen) complex [Ru(H)2(η -H2)2(PCy3)2]. It was demonstrated that 1 was able to effect the sp2C–X (X= H, O) bond cleavage of acetophenone substrates to generate 5-membered organometallic intermediates. The by-products from the C–O cleavage reactions were identified as alcohols which also react with 1 at a faster or equal rate to the substrates. The mechanism of these C–X cleavage reactions were probed experimentally and computationally to show that the C–H bond cleavage pathway was operating through a σ-complex assisted metathesis pathway whereas the C–O cleavage pathway was operating through a Ru(II)/Ru(IV) redox mechanism.

The nature of dihydrogen bonding (DHB) in VI, VII, and VIII group octahedral metal hydride complexes with H2O has been studied systematically using quantum theory of atoms-in-molecule (QTAIM) analysis. A dihydrogen bond (H···H) between hydride ligand and hydrogen of H2O is revealed in QTAIM analysis with the identification of a bond critical point (bcp). The DHB is due to the donation of electron density from the hydride ligand to the hydrogen of H2O. A strong linear correlation is observed between intermolecular ρ H···H distance (dHH) and electron density ( ) at the bcp. Structural parameters suggested the highly directional nature of DHB. Weak secondary interactions between oxygen of water and other ligands contribute significantly to the binding energy (Eint) of DHB complex (2.5 to 13.2 kcal/mol). Analysis of QTAIM parameters such as kinetic- (Gc), potential- (Vc) and total electron energy density (Hc) revealed the partially covalent character of DHB in majority of the complexes while a few of them showed closed shell character typical of purely non-covalent interactions.

    crystals Editorial Analysis of Hydrogen Bonds in Crystals Sławomir J. Grabowski 1,2 1 Kimika Fakultatea, Euskal Herriko Unibertsitatea UPV/EHU, and Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC), P.K. 1072, 20080 San Sebastian, Spain; [email protected]; Tel.: +34-943-015477 2 IKERBASQUE, Basque Foundation for Science, 48011 Bilbao, Spain Academic Editor: Helmut Cölfen Received: 12 May 2016; Accepted: 13 May 2016; Published: 17 May 2016 Abstract: The determination of crystal structures provides important information on the geometry of species constituting crystals and on the symmetry relations between them. Additionally, the analysis of crystal structures is so conclusive that it allows us to understand the nature of various interactions. The hydrogen bond interaction plays a crucial role in crystal engineering and, in general, its important role in numerous chemical, physical and bio-chemical processes was the subject of various studies. That is why numerous important findings on the nature of hydrogen bonds concern crystal structures. This special issue presents studies on hydrogen bonds in crystals, and specific compounds and specific H-bonded patterns existing in crystals are analyzed. However, the characteristics of the H-bond interactions are not only analyzed theoretically; this interaction is compared with other ones that steer the arrangement of molecules in crystals, for example halogen, tetrel or pnicogen bonds. More general findings concerning the influence of the hydrogen bond on the physicochemical properties of matter
