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.
Lewis Acids and Lewis Acid-Functionalized Ligands in Rhodium-Catalyzed Methyl Acetate Carbonylation
摘要:
The application of Lewis acids and Lewis acid-functionalized ligands as activators for methyl acetate in the rhodium-catalyzed carbonylation of methyl acetate to acetic anhydride has been investigated. The reaction of methyl acetate with B(C6F5)(3) results in the formation of the adduct [MeOAc center dot B(C6F5)(3)]. The combination of this adduct with [Rh(OAc)-(CO)(2)](2) results in a transfer of the Lewis acid to the rhodium complex, rather than an anticipated oxidative addition reaction. In a second approach, novel Lewis acid-functionalized rhodium-(I) complexes [Rh(CO)Cl(BPP)], [Rh(CO)(2)(EPP)]SbF6, and [Rh(MeCN)(2)(BPP)]SbF6 (BPP = PhB(C6H4PPh2)(2)) have been prepared. The lack of reactivity of [Rh(CO)(2)(BPP)]SbF6 toward MeOAc has shown that the rhodium boron interaction is too strong for activation of methyl acetate, and no carbonylation activity was observed under the conditions used.
Metal-Lewis acid cooperation provides new opportunities in catalysis. In this work, we report a new type of palladium-boranecooperation involving anionic Pd0 species. The air-stable DPB palladium complex 1 (DPB=diphosphine-borane) was prepared and reacted with KH to give the Pd0 borohydride 2, the first monomeric anionic Pd0 species to be structurally characterized. The boron moiety acts as an acceptor

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

Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of an S<sub>N</sub>2-type Pathway for Borate–Fluorine Bond Cleavage by Electron-Rich Late-Transition Metal Complexes
iridium(I) and palladium(0) complexes. The selectivity of B-F σ-bond cleavage by iridium complexes was improved through the high nucleophilicity of the iridium center, implying that a different pathway from that of well-accepted F- abstraction was in effect. The palladium(0) complex was found to promote exclusive B-F σ-bond cleavage even at ambient temperature. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations
