- Gold(I)-catalyzed protodecarboxylation of (Hetero)aromatic carboxylic acids
-
Readily available, inexpensive and easy to handle, carboxylic acids have been shown to be very effective, greener coupling partners compared to costly organometallic reagents for the formation of C-C bonds. The use of well-defined gold complexes furnished 3 in slightly better yield with butyric acid, and in quantitative yield with adamantane-1-carboxylic acid. All reactions reached completion within 16 h. As with silver systems, this reactivity trend highlights, as previously observed, the benefits of potential coordinating groups in the ortho position to the gold binding site, which possibly facilitate the decarboxylation step. Additional reaction time and increased temperatures were necessary to afford the gold aryl products in satisfactory yields. Yet, some substrates such as 2-nitrobenzoic acids reacted poorly and could only be transformed in 50% yield.

- Reactivity of neutral nitrogen donors in square-planar d8 metal complexes: The system chloro(2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine)platinum(II) cation with five-membered N-donor heterocycles in methanol
-
The kinetics of the forward and reverse steps of the reaction [Pt(terpy)Cl]+ + nu ? [Pt(terpy)(nu)]2+ + Cl- (terpy = 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine, nu = one of a number of thiazoles, oxazole, isoxazole, imidazole, pyrazole and 3,5-dimethylpyrazole, covering a wide range of basicities) have been studied in methanol at 25 °C. Both forward and reverse reactions obey the usual two-term rate law observed in square-planar substitution. The second-order rate constants for the forward reactions, k2f, show a slight dependence upon the basicity of the entering nu, while the steric hindrance due to the presence of one methyl group in the α position to the nitrogen markedly decreases the reactivity. The second-order rate constants for the reverse reactions, k2r, are very sensitive to the nature of the leaving group and a plot of log k2r against the pKa of the conjugate acids of the unhindered five-membered N-donors is linear with a slope of -0.51. The results are compared with data from the literature regarding a series of pyridines reacting with the [Pt(terpy)Cl]+ cation under the same experimental conditions. Both in the forward and in the reverse reaction, the reactivity depends not only upon the ligand basicity but also upon the nature of the nucleophile in the order: (thiazoles, oxazole, isoxazole, imidazole, pyrazoles) > pyridines for the entry of N-donors and on the contrary for the displacement by Cl-. Steric retardation, due to the presence of a methyl group in the α position to the nitrogen, is remarkably lower for five-membered N-donors if compared to pyridines both in the forward and in the reverse reaction.

A series of gold(III) complexes of the type has been prepared and characterized (L = oxazole, benzoxazole, thiazole, their benzo and methyl-substituted derivatives, or 2-methylbenzoselenazole).The five-membered N.O-, N,S- and N,Se-heterocyclic bases are all bound to Au(III) through nitrogen.The kinetics of the displacement of L by chloride to give (1-) has been studied in methanol-water (95:5. v/v) at 25.0 deg C and I = 0.20 mol dm-3 (LiClO4).The equilibrium constants for the reversible processes have also been determined.The reactions of the corresponding pyridine, 4-chloro-, 4-cyano- and 2,6-bis(chloromethyl)-pyridine complexes have also been reexamined under the same conditions.The equlibrium constants, K2, depend upon the basicity of the nitrogen in the ligands and points for all ligands, irrespective of ring size and composition, lie roughly on the same log K2 versus pKa curve.There is no significant systematic steric effect on the equilibrium constants of the sort found for the more basic methyl pyridines.The complexes of the five-membered heterocyclic ligands are approximately ten times less reactive than those of the six-membered N-heterocycles of comparable basicity and exhibit steric retardation from ortho-methyl substituents.The nucleophilicities of these ligands have been calculated and five-membered N,O- and N,S-heterocycles are considerably less reactive than six-membered N-heterocycles of similar basicity.
