Syntheses, Properties, and Catalytic Activities of Metal(II) Complexes and Free Bases of Redox-Switchable 20π, 19π, and 18π 5,10,15,20-Tetraaryl-5,15-diazaporphyrinoids

In spite of significant advances in redox-active porphyrin-based materials and catalysts, little attention has been paid to 20π and 19π porphyrins because of their instability in air. Here we report the meso-modification of 5,10,15,20-tetraarylporphyrin with two nitrogen atoms, which led to redox-switchable 20π, 19π, and 18π 5,10,15,20-tetraaryl-5,15-diazaporphyrinoids (TADAPs). Three kinds of metal(II) complexes and free bases of TADAP were prepared by the metal-templated annulation of the corresponding metal-bis(dipyrrin) complexes. The inductive and resonance effects of the meso-nitrogen atoms on the aromatic, optical, electrochemical, and magnetic properties of the entire TADAP π-systems were assessed by using various spectroscopic measurements and density functional theory calculations. The aromaticity and π–π* electronic transition energies of the TADAPs varied considerably, and were shown to be dependent on the oxidation states of the π-systems. In contrast to the isoelectronic 5,10,15,20-tetraarylporphyrin derivatives, the 20π and 19π TADAPs were chemically stable under air. In particular, the 19π TADAP radical cations were extremely stable towards dioxygen, moisture, and silica gel. This reflected the low-lying singly occupied molecular orbitals of their π-systems and the efficient delocalization of their unshared electron spin. The capability of MgTADAP to catalyze aerobic biaryl formation from aryl Grignard reagents was demonstrated, which presumably involved a 19π/20π redox cycle.

This paper describes the first case of a reductive coupling reaction with indene, a non-heteroatom olefin used as a reducing agent. The scope of the substrate is wide. The homo-coupling, cross-coupling, and synthesis of 12 and 14-membered rings were realized. The control experiment, indene-product curve and density functional theory calculations showed that the η3-palladium indene intermediate was formed by C—H activation in the presence of cesium carbonate. We speculate that the final product was obtained through a Pd (IV) intermediate or aryl ligand exchange. In addition, we excluded the formation of palladium anion (Pd(0)?) intermediates.

The Ni-catalysed cross-coupling of aryl ethers is a powerful method to forge new C?C and C?heteroatom bonds. However, the inert C(sp2)?O bond means that a canonical mechanism that relies on the oxidative addition of the aryl ether to a Ni0 centre is thermodynamically and kinetically unfavourable, which suggests that alternative mechanisms may be involved. Here, we provide spectroscopic and structural insights into the anionic pathway, which relies on the formation of electron-rich hetero-bimetallic nickelates by adding organometallic nucleophiles to a Ni0 centre. Assessing the rich co-complexation chemistry between Ni(COD)2 and PhLi has led to the structures and solution-state chemistry of a diverse family of catalytically competent lithium nickelates being unveiled. In addition, we demonstrate dramatic solvent and donor effects, which suggest that the cooperative activation of the aryl ether substrate by Ni0-ate complexes plays a key role in the catalytic cycle.
