Abnormal solvent effects on hydrogen atom abstractions. 1. The reactions of phenols with 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (dpph?) in alcohols
Litwinienko, Grzegorz,Ingold
, p. 3433 - 3438 (2003)
Rate constants, kArOH/dpph?,s, for hydrogen atom abstraction from 13 hindered and nonhindered phenols by the diphenylpicrylhydrazyl radical, dpph?, have been determined in n-heptane and a number of alcoholic and nonalcoholic, hydrogen-bond accepting solvents. Abnormally enhanced values of kArOH/dpph?,s have been observed in alcohols. It is proposed that this is due to partial ionization of the phenols and a very fast electron transfer from phenoxide anion to dpph?. The popular assessment of the antioxidant activities of phenols with dpph? in alcohol solvents will generally lead to an overestimation of their activities.

High-valent metal-hydroxide species have been implicated as key intermediates in hydroxylation chemistry catalyzed by heme monooxygenases such as the cytochrome P450s. However, in some classes of P450s, a bifurcation from the typical oxygen rebound pathway is observed, wherein the FeIV(OH)(porphyrin) species carries out a net hydrogen atom transfer reaction to form alkene metabolites. In this work, we examine the hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactivity of FeIV(OH)(ttppc) (1), ttppc = 5,10,15-tris(2,4,6-triphenyl)-phenyl corrole, toward substituted phenol derivatives. The iron hydroxide complex 1 reacts with a series of para-substituted 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol derivatives (4-X-2,6-DTBP; X = OMe, Me, Et, H, Ac), with second-order rate constants k2 = 3.6(1)-1.21(3) × 104 M-1 s-1 and yielding linear Hammett and Marcus plot correlations. It is concluded that the rate-determining step for O-H cleavage occurs through a concerted HAT mechanism, based on mechanistic analyses that include a KIE = 2.9(1) and DFT calculations. Comparison of the HAT reactivity of 1 to the analogous Mn complex, MnIV(OH)(ttppc), where only the central metal ion is different, indicates a faster HAT reaction and a steeper Hammett slope for 1. The O-H bond dissociation energy (BDE) of the MIII(HO-H) complexes were estimated from a kinetic analysis to be 85 and 89 kcal mol-1 for Mn and Fe, respectively. These estimated BDEs are closely reproduced by DFT calculations and are discussed in the context of how they influence the overall H atom transfer reactivity.

To obtain mechanistic insights into the inherent reactivity patterns for copper(I)-O2 adducts, a new cupric-superoxo complex [(DMM-tmpa)CuII(O2?-)]+ (2) [DMM-tmpa = tris((4-methoxy-3,5-dimethylpyridin-2-yl)methyl)amine] has been synthesized and studied in phenol oxidation-oxygenation reactions. Compound 2 is characterized by UV-vis, resonance Raman, and EPR spectroscopies. Its reactions with a series of para-substituted 2,6-di-tert-butylphenols (p-X-DTBPs) afford 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DTBQ) in up to 50% yields. Significant deuterium kinetic isotope effects and a positive correlation of second-order rate constants (k2) compared to rate constants for p-X-DTBPs plus cumylperoxyl radical reactions indicate a mechanism that involves rate-limiting hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). A weak correlation of (kBT/e) ln k 2 versus Eox of p-X-DTBP indicates that the HAT reactions proceed via a partial transfer of charge rather than a complete transfer of charge in the electron transfer/proton transfer pathway. Product analyses, 18O-labeling experiments, and separate reactivity employing the 2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenoxyl radical provide further mechanistic insights. After initial HAT, a second molar equiv of 2 couples to the phenoxyl radical initially formed, giving a CuII-OO-(ArO') intermediate, which proceeds in the case of p-OR-DTBP substrates via a two-electron oxidation reaction involving hydrolysis steps which liberate H2O2 and the corresponding alcohol. By contrast, four-electron oxygenation (O-O cleavage) mainly occurs for p-R-DTBP which gives 18O-labeled DTBQ and elimination of the R group.
