A series of three-coordinate monovalent nickel halide complexes bearing N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands, i.e., NiCl(IPr)(L) [L = pyridine, P(OPh)3, bis(diphenylphosphino)butane (dppb), IPr = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene], NiX(IMes)(PPh3) (X = Cl and Br, IMes = 1,3-bis(mesityl)imidazol-2-ylidene), were prepared. The complexes were identified using NMR spectroscopy, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), and X-ray crystallography. Additionally, ESR spectra of NiCl(IPr)(pyridine) were taken in toluene. These complexes had three-coordinate Y-shaped geometries in both the solid and solution states. The compounds containing IPr showed equilibrium between the monomeric and dimeric forms, with liberation of ligands. Addition of 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane and 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane to the dinickel(I) IPr complex instead of dppb resulted in heterolytic cleavage to nickel(0) and nickel(II) species. Catalysis of Suzuki cross-coupling and Buchwald-Hartwig amination of aryl bromide using the complexes was investigated. The efficiencies in the amination of aryl bromide depended strongly on the additional donor ligands.

The activation and reduction of nickel(II) salts under conditions relevant to Ni-catalyzed borylation reactions is reported. Methanolic solutions of NiCl2·6H2O reacted with >2 equiv of (iPr)2NEt were converted to polymeric Ni(OMe)2, which was characterized by IR spectroscopy, magnetic susceptibility measurements, and verified by independent synthesis from NaOMe. When diboron reagents such as bis(neopentylglycolato) diboron (B2(npg)2) were exposed to methanolic solutions of Ni(II) salts and (iPr)2NEt, nickel metal was deposited along with the evolution of hydrogen gas. A direct relationship between yield of nickel metal and equivalents of B2(npg)2 relative to [Ni] was also observed, reaching >99% yield at 8 equiv. Ni(0) coordination complexes were also isolated when a phosphine, phosphite, and/or diene ligand was present, all starting from NiCl2·6H2O, including the following: Ni[P(OPh)3]4 (74% yield), Ni[P(OiPr)3]4 (54% yield), Ni(PPh3)4 (75% yield), (dppp)2Ni + Ni(1,5-cod)2 (dppp = 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphine)propane) (91% yield), Ni(1,5-cod)2 (1,5-cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) (69% yield), and (dppf)Ni(1,5-cod) (dppf = 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) (84% yield). The high yields observed indicated the efficient reduction of Ni(II) to Ni(0) and a likely route for precatalyst entry into the Ni-borylation catalytic cycle. These in situ reduction conditions were also successfully applied to a previously developed Ni-catalyzed alpha-arylation reaction where the requisite Ni(1,5-cod)2 precatalyst was substituted for NiCl2·6H2O and catalytic diboron. Comparable yields to the original report were observed under these conditions, further demonstrating that Ni(0) active species can be efficiently accessed with diboron reagents under protic conditions from Ni(II) salt hydrates.
Controlled radical polymerization, and catalysts useful therein

Page/Page column 7, (2017/05/31)
A catalyst is prepared in situ by reaction between an aryl halide and a Ni(0) complex. The catalyst may be used to promote chain-growth polymerization of halogen-substituted Mg or Zn monomers by a controlled radical mechanism. Polymers, co-polymers, block copolymers, polymer thin films, and surface-confined polymer brushes may be produced using the catalyst.
Synergy between Experimental and Computational Chemistry Reveals the Mechanism of Decomposition of Nickel-Ketene Complexes

A series of (dppf)Ni(ketene) complexes were synthesized and fully characterized. In the solid state, the complexes possess η2-(C,O) coordination of the ketene in an overall planar configuration. They display similar structure in solution, except in some cases, the η2-(C,C) coordination mode is also detected. A combination of kinetic analysis and DFT calculations reveals the complexes undergo thermal decomposition by isomerization from η2-(C,O) to η2-(C,C) followed by scission of the C=C bond, which is usually rate limiting and results in an intermediate carbonyl carbene complex. Subsequent rearrangement of the carbene ligand is rate limiting for electron poor and sterically large ketenes, and results in a carbonyl alkene complex. The alkene readily dissociates, affording alkenes and (dppf)Ni(CO)2. Computational modeling of the decarbonylation pathway with partial phosphine dissociation reveals the barrier is reduced significantly, explaining the instability of ketene complexes with monodentate phosphines.

Stoichiometric and catalytic reactions of thermally stable nickel(0) NHC complexes

, p. 806 - 809 (2012/05/04)
Although there are many organic reactions that are catalyzed by either Ni0 or Pd0 complexes, in comparison with the case for Pd0 there has been significantly less work studying coordinatively unsaturated Ni0 complexes. Here, we develop a simple synthetic route for preparing a number of thermally stable NHC-supported Ni0 hexadiene complexes in good yield. We examine the stoichiometric reactivity of one of these species and demonstrate that the coordinated hexadiene moiety is labile and can be replaced with a variety of different ligands, including CO, phosphines, isonitriles, and olefins. In addition, we show that the Ni 0 hexadiene complexes are relatively rare examples of homogeneous first-row transition-metal catalysts for the hydrogenation of olefins.

The mixed-ligand complex [Ni(dppp)(P ph 2 N Bz 2 )](BF 4 ) 2 , 3, (where P ph 2 N Bz 2 is 1,5-dibenzyl-3,7- diphenyl-1,5-diaza-3,7-diphosphacyclooctane and dppp is 1,3- bis(diphenylphosphino)propane) has been synthesized. Treatment of this complex with H 2 and triethylamine results in the formation of the Ni° complex, Ni(dppp)(P ph 2 N Bz 2 ), 4, whose structure has been determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. Heterolytic cleavage of H 2 by 3 at room temperature forms [HNi(dppp)(P ph 2 N Bz (μ-H)N Bz )](BF 4 ) 2 , 5a, in which one proton interacts with two nitrogen atoms of the cyclic diphosphine ligand and a hydride ligand is bound to nickel. Two intermediates are observed for this reaction using low-temperature NMR spectroscopy. One species isa dihydride, [(H) 2 Ni(dppp)(P ph 2 N Bz 2 )](BF 4 ) 2 , 5b, and the other is [Ni(dppp)(P ph 2 N Bz 2 H 2 )](BF 4 ) 2 , 5c, in which both protons are bound to the N atoms in an endo geometry with respect to nickel. These two species interconvert via a rapid and reversible intramolecularproton exchange between nickel and the nitrogen atoms of the diphosphin e ligand. Complex 3 is a catalyst for the electrochemical oxidation of H 2 in the presence of base, and new insights into the mechani sm derived from low-temperature NMR and thermodynamic studies are presented. A comparison of the rate and thermodynamics of H 2 addition for this complex to related catalysts studied previously indicates that for Ni" complexes containing two diphosphine ligands, the activationof H 2 is favored by the presence of two positioned pendant bases.

(2-Diphenylphosphanyl)thiophenol (P^pSH) or (3-diphenylphosphanyl)-2-thionaphthol (P^nSH) react with Ni(PMe3)4 to form NiH(P^pS)(PMe3)2 (1) or NiH(P^nS)(PMe3)2 (2). 1,3-Bis(diphenylphosphanyl)propane (P^P) replaces the monodentate phosphane ligands to give NiH(P^pS)(P^P) (3). NiMe(OMe)(PMe3) or NiMe2(PMe3)3 react with P^pSH to form NiMe(P^pS)(PMe3) (4) and NiMe(P^pS)(PMe3)2 (5), respectively, and P^nSH affords NiMe(P^nS)(PMe3)2 (6), NiMe(P^nS)(PMe3) (7). Dissociation of PMe3 ligands induces transformation of 1 to Ni(P^pS)(PMe3)2 (8) and Ni(P^pS)2. Crystal and molecular structures are given for 1, 5-8, and dynamic solution spectra (NMR, EPR) are discussed.
