Reversible H2 Addition across a Nickel–Borane Unit as a Promising Strategy for Catalysis
摘要:
We report the synthesis and characterization of a series of nickel complexes of the chelating diphosphine-borane ligands ArB(o-Ph2PC6H4)(2) ([(DPBPh)-D-Ar]; Ar = Ph, Mes). The [(DPBPh)-D-Ar] framework supports pseudo-tetrahedral nickel complexes featuring eta(2)-B,C coordination from the ligand backbone. For the B-phenyl derivative, the adduct [(DPBPh)-D-Ph]Ni(THF) has been characterized by X-ray diffraction and features a very short interaction between nickel and the eta(2)-B,C ligand. For the B-mesityl derivative, the reduced nickel complex [(DPBPh)-D-Mes]Ni is isolated as a pseudo-three-coordinate "naked" species that undergoes reversible, nearly thermoneutral oxidative addition of dihydrogen to give a borohydrido-hydride complex of nickel(II) which has been characterized in solution by multinuclear NMR Furthermore, [(DPBPh)-D-Mes]Ni is an efficient catalyst for the hydrogenation of olefin substrates under mild conditions.

Synthetic access to the zerovalent palladiumcomplexes [(o-Ph2PC6H4)2BPh]Pd(L)} (L = pyridine (8a), 2,6-lutidine (8b)) is reported. Structural characterization and DFT analysis of 8a revealed a strong Pd→B interaction, which appears to inhibit oxidative addition reactions. Activation of allyl acetate is possible by reversible transfer of the acetate leaving group to the ligand’s borane functionality
据报道合成了零价钯络合物[(o -Ph 2 PC 6 H 4)2 BPh] Pd(L)}(L =吡啶(8a),2,6-二甲基吡啶(8b))。8a的结构表征和DFT分析表明,Pd→B相互作用很强,似乎抑制了氧化加成反应。乙酸烯丙酯的活化可以通过乙酸酯离去基团可逆转移至配体的硼烷官能团来实现。乙酸烯丙酯被HNEt 2烯丙基取代时的催化活性对游离乙酸酯的存在很敏感,游离乙酸酯通过可逆的硼酸盐形成降低了硼烷抑制作用。
