  • CO2 Activation and Redox Activity of NN
    To ancillary and beyond: CO 2 activation and redox activity of NN chelate actor ligands by Trevor William Janes A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry University of Toronto © Copyright by Trevor Janes 2017 To ancillary and beyond: CO 2 activation and redox activity of NN chelate actor ligands Trevor William Janes Doctor of Philosophy Department of Chemistry University of Toronto 2017 Abstract This thesis examines the fundamental coordination chemistry and subsequent reactivity of actor and redox-active ligands. In this context, the two NN chelate ligand classes that are explored are 4,5-diazafluorene and o-phenylenediamine. In Chapter 2, actor diazafluorenyl ligands were explored. New Ru and Zn diazafluorenyl complexes undergo C–H borylation of the diazafluorenyl ligand to form the corresponding diazafluorenylboronic ester complexes, which can insert CO 2 into their C–B bonds to form boryl ester functionalities. The relevance of this new reactivity to catalytic CO 2 reduction was also explored. In Chapter 3, the initial coordination chemistry of the redox-active N,N’ -bis(2,6- 2- diisopropylphenyl)-o-phenylenediamido ligand (L ) was investigated. Li 2L(THF)3 reacts with iron(II) sources in toluene to yield LFe(η6-toluene). DFT, NMR, and X-ray data indicate that L2- 1- 6 oxidized to L in this transformation. [FeL(η -toluene)] reacts with CO to generate [FeL(CO) 3], - 0 with concomitant oxidation of L to L . Two equivalents of Li 2L react with both MoCl 4(THF)2 and VCl 2(tmeda) 2 yielding trimetallic sandwich compounds.

Thomae Accelerator and Engineering Department iThemba LABS March 2019 https://etd.uwc.ac.za DECLARATION I declare that Synthesis of the Metallocenes for the Production of Exotic High Energy Ion Beams is my own work, that it has not been submitted for any degree or examination in any other university, and that all the sources I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged by complete references. Signed: Ntombizonke Kheswa Date: 1 March 2019 i https://etd.uwc.ac.za Synthesis of the Metallocenes for the Production of Exotic High Energy Ion Beams Department of Physics and Astronomy, University of the Western Cape, Private Bag X17, 7535 Bellville, South Africa. ABSTRACT The Subatomic Physics Department of iThemba Laboratory for Accelerated Based Sciences (iThemba LABS) conducts experiments that require a variety of particle beams in order to study nuclear properties (reaction, structure, etc.) of various nuclides. These particle beams are accelerated using the K-200 Separated Sector Cyclotron (SSC) and delivered to different physics experimental vaults. Prior to acceleration, the particle beam is first ionised using an Electron Resonance Ion Source (ECRIS). The main goal of this study is the production of exotic metallic beams of 60Ni8+ and 62Ni8+ using ECRIS4, which are required for the Coulomb excitation experiments approved by the Programme Advisory Committee (PAC) at iThemba LABS.

The trihydride-osmium(IV)-hydroxo complex OsH3(OH){κ -P,O,P- i i i [xant(P Pr2)2]} (1, xant(P Pr2)2 = 4,5-bis(diisopropylphosphino)xanthene) reacts with the amino-boranes Pr(H)NBCy2 and i 3 i Pr(H)NBBN to give the osmium(IV)-boroxide derivatives OsH3(OBR2){κ -P,O,P-[xant(P Pr2)2]} (BR2 = BCy2 (2), BBN (3); BBN i = 9-borabicyclo[3.5.1]nonane) and PrNH2, as a consequence of the addition of the O-H bond of the hydroxo ligand of 1 to the B-N bond of the amino-boranes. At room temperature, under CO atmosphere, complexes 2 and 3 eliminate H2 to afford the osmium(II)- 2 i 2 boroxide compounds OsH(OBR2)(CO)2{κ -P,P-[xant(P Pr2)2]} (BR2 = BCy2 (4), BBN (5)) bearing a κ -P,P-coordinated ether- diphosphine. The subsequent reductive elimination of the borinic acids R2BOH needs heating and long time and leads to the tricar- 2 i bonyl-osmium(0) derivative Os(CO)3{κ -P,P-[xant(P Pr2)2]} (6), with the phosphorus atoms of the diphosphine lying in the equato- rial plane of a pentagonal bypiramid of donor atoms around the metal center.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
