Pyridyl- and pyrimidyl-phosphine-substituted [FeFe]-hydrogenase mimics: Synthesis, charaterization and properties
摘要:
Two tetranuclear iron-sulphur complexes {[(mu-pdt)Fe-2(CO)(5)](2)(PNP) (2) and [(mu-pdt)Fe-2(CO)(5)](2)(PNNP) (3)} and three dinuclear ones {[(mu-pdt)Fe-2(CO)(5)](PNP) (4), [(mu-pdt)Fe-2(CO)(5)](PNNP) (5) and [(mu-pdt) Fe-2(CO)(5)](PNN) (6)} were synthesized, using two new pyrimidyl-phosphine ligands PNNP [4,6-bis( diphenylphosphino) pyrimidine] and PNN (4-tertiary butyl-6-diphenylphosphino pyrimidine) together with the reported pyridyl-phosphine PNP [bis(diphenylphosphino) pyridine] as substituents to react with Fe-2(mu-pdt)(CO)(6). The molecular structures of 2, 3 and 6 were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analyses, which show that all phosphine ligands occupy the apical positions, while the space group of 3 (P21/n) is different from that of 2 (P-1). Cyclic voltammograms reveal that pyrimidyl-phosphine substituted complexes 3, 5 and 6 present two reduction waves in CH2Cl2 solutions, while pyridylphosphine substituted 2 and 4 show only one. The DFT computational studies demonstrate that the contributions to the LUMO of 3 are comparable from the two Fe2S2 centres and ligated PNNP ligand, which is different from those of other [Fe2S2] mimics in this work.
