This work focuses on the application of dicobalt octacarbonyl (Co2(CO)8) as a metal precursor in the chemistry of formally low-valent cobalt with redox-active bis(imino)pyridine [NNN] ligands. The reactions of both mononucleating mes
Stereodivergent formation of alkenylsilanes: syn or anti Hydrosilylation of alkynes catalyzed by a cyclopentadienylcobalt(I) chelate bearing a pendant phosphane tether

The hydrosilylation of alkynes is catalyzed by the di-tert- butylphosphanylethylcyclopentadienyl-cobalt chelate 1. While the reaction of internal alkynes exclusively affords syn hydrosilylation products with triethylsilane, the reaction with triethoxysila

Cyclopentadienyl-ruthenium half-sandwich complexes with η2-bound alkyne ligands have been suggested as catalytic intermediates in the early stages of Ru-catalyzed reactions with alkynes. We show that electronically unsaturated complexes of the formula [RuCl(Cp)(η2-RC=CR')] can be stabilized and crystallized by using the sterically demanding cyclopentadienyl ligand Cp (Cp = η5-l-methoxy-2,4tert-butyl-3-neopentyl-cyclopentadienyl). Furthermore we demonstrate that [RuCl2(Cp)]2 is an active and regioselective catalyst for the [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization of alkynes. The first elementary steps of the reaction of mono(η2- alkyne) complexes containing {RuCl(Cp*)} (Cp* = η5- C5Me5) and (RuCl(Cp)} fragments with alkynes were investigated by DFT calculations at the M06/6-31G* level in combination with a continuum solvent model. Theoretical results are able to rationalize and complement the experimental findings. The presence of the sterically demanding Cp ligand increases the activation energy required for the formation of the corresponding di(η2alkyne) complexes, enhancing the initial regioselectivity, but avoiding the evolution of the system towards the expected cyclotrimerization product when bulky substituents are present. Theoretical results also show that the electronic structure and stability of a metallacyclic intermediate is strongly dependent on the nature of the substituents present in the alkyne.

A highly regioselective cyclotrimerization of olefins with electron-withdrawing groups in a PdCl2/O2/DMF catalytic system is disclosed, and a possible mechanism has also been proposed, which reveals the PdCl2-catalyzed cyclotrimerization of olefins with electron-withdrawing groups goes through a quite different pathway from that of alkynes.

The development of pyrimidine-based analogues of the well-known pyridinediimine (PDI) iron complexes enables access to a functional-group-tolerant methodology for the catalytic trimerization of terminal aliphatic alkynes. Remarkably, in contrast to established alkyne trimerization protocols, the 1,3,5-substituted arenes are the main reaction products. Preliminary mechanistic investigations suggest that the enhanced π-acidity of the pyrimidine ring, combined with the hemilability of the imine groups coordinated to the iron center, facilitates this transformation. The entry point in the catalytic cycle is an isolable iron dinitrogen complex. The catalytic reaction proceeds via a 1,3-substituted metallacycle, which explains the observed 1,3,5-regioselectivity. Such a metallacycle could be isolated and represents a rare 1,3-substituted ferracycle obtained through alkyne cycloaddition.

A cyclic tri-nuclear α-diimine nickel(0) complex [{Ni(μ-LMe-2,4)}3] (2) was synthesized from a “pre-organized”, trimerized trigonal LNiBr2-type precursor [Ni3(μ2-Br)3(μ3-Br)2(LMe-2,4)3]·Br (1; LMe-2,4 = [(2,4-Me2C6H3)NC(Me)]2). In complex 2, the α-diimine ligands not only exhibit the normal N,N′-chelating mode, but they also act as bridges between the Ni atoms through an unusual π-coordination of a C═N bond to Ni. Complex 2 is able to catalyze the cyclotrimerization of alkynes to form substituted benzenes in good yield and regio-selectivity for the 1,3,5-isomers, which is found to vary with the nature of the alkyne employed. This complex represents a convenient self-supported nickel(0) catalyst with no need for additional ligands and reducing agent.
Enhanced Catalytic Activity of Nickel Complexes of an Adaptive Diphosphine-Benzophenone Ligand in Alkyne Cyclotrimerization

Adaptive ligands, which can adapt their coordination mode to the electronic structure of various catalytic intermediates, offer the potential to develop improved homogeneous catalysts in terms of activity and selectivity. 2,2′-Diphosphinobenzophenones have previously been shown to act as adaptive ligands, the central ketone moiety preferentially coordinating reduced metal centers. Herein, the utility of this scaffold in nickel-catalyzed alkyne cyclotrimerization is investigated. The complex [(p-tolL1)Ni(BPI)] (p-tolL1 = 2,2′-bis(di(para-tolyl)phosphino)-benzophenone; BPI = benzophenone imine) is an active catalyst in the [2 + 2 + 2] cyclotrimerization of terminal alkynes, selectively affording 1,2,4-substituted benzenes from terminal alkynes. In particular, this catalyst outperforms closely related bi- and tridentate phosphine-based Ni catalysts. This suggests a reaction pathway involving a hemilabile interaction of the C-O unit with the nickel center. This is further borne out by a comparative study of the observed resting states and DFT calculations.

An (η5-cyclopentadienyl)cobalt(i) complex was covalently incorporated into an engineered variant of the transmembrane protein ferric hydroxamate uptake protein component: A, FhuA ΔCVFtev, using a thiol-ene reaction. A CD spectrum shows the structural integrity of the biohybrid catalyst. MALDI-TOF of the segment containing the anchoring site for the cobalt complex Cys545 confirmed successful conjugation. This biohybrid catalyst catalyzed the cyclotrimerization of phenylacetylene to give a mixture of regioisomeric 1,2,4- and 1,3,5-triphenylbenzene in aqueous medium.

The reaction of a dinucleating bis(iminopyridine) ligand L bearing a xanthene linker (L = N,N′-(2,7-di-tert-butyl-9,9-dimethyl-9H-xanthene-4,5-diyl)bis(1-(pyridin-2-yl)methanimine)) with Ni2(COD)2(DPA) (COD = cyclooctadiene, DPA = diphenylacetylene) leads to the formation of a new dinuclear complex Ni2(L)(DPA). Ni2(L)(DPA) can also be obtained in a one-pot reaction involving Ni(COD)2, DPA and L. The X-ray structure of Ni2(L)(DPA) reveals two square-planar Ni centers bridged by a DPA ligand. DFT calculations suggest that this species features NiI centers antiferromagnetically coupled to each other and their iminopyridine ligand radicals. Treatment of Ni2(L)(DPA) with one equivalent of ethyl propiolate (HCCCO2Et) forms the Ni2(L)(HCCCO2Et) complex. Addition of the second equivalent of ethyl propiolate leads to the observation of cyclotrimerised products by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Carrying out the reaction under catalytic conditions (1 mol% of Ni2(L)(DPA), 24 h, room temperature) transforms 89% of the substrate, forming primarily benzene products (triethyl benzene-1,2,4-tricarboxylate and triethyl benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate) in 68% yield, in a ca. 5:1 relative ratio. Increasing catalyst loading to 5 mol% leads to the full conversion of ethyl propiolate to benzene products; no cyclotetramerisation products were observed. In contrast, the reaction is significantly more sluggish with methyl propargyl ether. Using 1 mol% of the catalyst, only 25% conversion of methyl propargyl ether was observed within 24 h at room temperature. Furthermore, methyl propargyl ether demonstrates the formation of cyclooctatetraenes in significant amounts at a low catalyst concentration, whereas a higher catalyst concentration (5 mol%) leads to benzene products exclusively. Density functional theory was used to provide insight into the reaction mechanism, including structures of putative dinuclear metallocyclopentadiene and metallocycloheptatriene intermediates.
Pd and Ni complexes of a novel vinylidene β-diketimine ligand: Their application as catalysts in Heck coupling and alkyne trimerization

A β-diketimine ligand with vinylidene substitution at γ-carbon, CH2C(CH3CNAr)2 (Ar?=?2,6-diisopropylphenyl) (L2), was synthesized by treating β-diketimine H2C(CH3CNAr)2 with n-BuLi followed by paraformaldehyde. L2 formed the homobimetallic ether-bridged β-diketiminate complex [O{(CH2-β-diketiminate)Pd(OAc)}2] (1) with (PdOAc)2. It also gave complexes [L2PdCl2] (2) and [L2NiBr2] (3) when treated with PdCl2(CH3CN)2 and NiBr2(dimethoxyethane), respectively. All the compounds were characterized using 1H/13C NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The catalytic activity of Pd and Ni complexes 1, 2 and 3 was explored in Heck coupling and alkyne trimerization reactions and it was found that they are very good catalysts. The results are reported in detail.
