Abstract
This review surveys the synthesis and reactivity of low-oxidation state metalate anions of the d-block elements, with an emphasis on contributions reported between 2006 and 2022. Although the field has a long and rich history, the chemistry of transition metalate anions has been greatly enhanced in the last 15 years by the application of advanced concepts in complex synthesis and ligand design. In recent years, the potential of highly reactive metalate complexes in the fields of small molecule activation and homogeneous catalysis has become increasingly evident. Consequently, exciting applications in small molecule activation have been developed, including in catalytic transformations. This article intends to guide the reader through the fascinating world of low-valent transition metalates. The first part of the review describes the synthesis and reactivity of d-block metalates stabilized by an assortment of ligand frameworks, including carbonyls, isocyanides, alkenes and polyarenes, phosphines and phosphorus heterocycles, amides, and redox-active nitrogen-based ligands. Thereby, the reader will be familiarized with the impact of different ligand types on the physical and chemical properties of metalates. In addition, ion-pairing interactions and metal-metal bonding may have a dramatic influence on metalate structures and reactivities. The complex ramifications of these effects are examined in a separate section. The second part of the review is devoted to the reactivity of the metalates toward small inorganic molecules such as H2, N2, CO, CO2, P4 and related species. It is shown that the use of highly electron-rich and reactive metalates in small molecule activation translates into impressive catalytic properties in the hydrogenation of organic molecules and the reduction of N2, CO, and CO2. The results discussed in this review illustrate that the potential of transition metalate anions is increasingly being tapped for challenging catalytic processes with relevance to organic synthesis and energy conversion. Therefore, it is hoped that this review will serve as a useful resource to inspire further developments in this dynamic research field.

Abstract
Electrification of thermal chemical processes could play an important role in creating a more energy efficient chemical sector. Here we demonstrate that a range of MLC catalysts can be successfully electrified and used for imine formation from alcohol precursors, thus demonstrating the first example of molecular electrocatalytic C-N bond formation.This novel concept allowed energy efficiency to be increased by an order of magnitude compared to thermal catalysis. Molecular EAO and the electrification of homogeneous catalysts can thus contribute to current efforts for the electrocatalytic generation of C-N bonds from simple building blocks.

Abstract
The Na3 [Ru2 (μ-CO3 )4 ] complex is acting as a water oxidation catalyst in a homogeneous system. Due to the significance of heterogeneous systems and the effect of bicarbonate on the kinetic, we studied the bicarbonate effect on the heterogeneous electrocatalyst by entrapping the Na3 [Ru2 (μ-CO3 )4 ] complex in a sol-gel matrix. We have developed two types of sol-gel electrodes, which differ by the precursor, and are demonstrating their stability over a minimum of 200 electrochemical cycles. The pH increases affected the currents and kcat for both types of electrodes, and their hydrophobicity, which was obtained from the precursor type, influenced the electrocatalytic process rate. The results indicate that NaHCO3 has an important role in the catalytic activity of the presented heterogeneous systems; without NaHCO3 , the diffusing species is probably OH- , which undergoes diffusion via the Grotthuss mechanism. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to present a simple and fast one-step entrapment process for the Na3 [Ru2 (μ-CO3 )4 ] complex by the sol-gel method under standard laboratory conditions. The results contribute to optimizing the WSP, ultimately helping expand the usage of hydrogen as a green and more readily available energy source.

Abstract
Mononuclear polypyridine ruthenium (Ru) complexes can catalyze various reactions, including water splitting, and can also serve as photosensitizers in solar cells. Despite recent progress in their synthesis, accurately modeling their physicochemical properties, particularly in solution, remains challenging. Herein, we conduct a theoretical investigation of the structural and electronic properties of a mononuclear Ru-aqua polypyridine complex in aqueous solution, considering five of its possible oxidation/protonation states species: [RuII(H2O)(py)(bpy)2]2+, [RuII(OH)(py)(bpy)2]+, [RuIII(H2O)(py)(bpy)2]3+, [RuIII(OH)(py)(bpy)2]2+ and [RuIV(O)(py)(bpy)2]2+, where py = pyridine and bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine. At first, we investigate the impact of proton-coupled and non-coupled electron transfer reactions on the geometry and electronic structure of the complexes in vacuum and in solution, using an implicit solvent model. Then, using a sequential multiscale approach that combines quantum mechanics and molecular mechanics (S-QM/MM), we examine the explicit solvent effects on the electronic excitations of the complexes, and compare them with the experimental results. The complexes were synthesized, and their absorption spectra measured in aqueous solution. To accurately describe the QM interactions between the metal center and the aqueous ligand in the MM simulations, we developed new force field parameters for the Ru atom. We analyze the solvent structure around the complexes and account for its explicit influence on the polarization and electronic excitations of the complexes. Notably, accounting for the explicit solvent polarization effects of the first solvation shells is essential to correctly describe the energy of the electronic transitions, and the explicit treatment of the hydrogen bonds at the QM level in the excitation calculations improves the accuracy of the description of the metal-to-ligand charge-transfer bands. Transition density matrix analysis is used to characterize all electronic transitions in the visible and ultraviolet ranges according to their charge-transfer (CT) character. This study elucidates the electronic structure of those ruthenium polypyridyl complexes in aqueous solution and underscores the importance of precisely describing solvent effects, which can be achieved employing the S-QM/MM method.

Ruthenium complexes of 1,4-diazabutadiene ligands with a cis-RuCl 2 moiety for catalytic acceptorless dehydrogenation of alcohols: DFT evidence of chemically non-innocent ligand participation. RSC Adv 2023; 13:25660-25672. [PMID: 37649575 PMCID: PMC10463240 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra04750d] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023] Open
Abstract
The acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling (ADC) of primary alcohols to esters by diazabutadiene-coordinated ruthenium compounds is reported. Treatment of cis-Ru(dmso)4Cl2 in acetone at 56 °C with different 1,4-diazabutadienes [p-XC6H4N[double bond, length as m-dash]C(H)(H)C[double bond, length as m-dash]NC6H4X-p; X = H, CH3, OCH3, and Cl; abbreviated as DAB-X], gives trans-Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-X]2Cl2 as the kinetic product of substitution. Heating these products in o-xylene at 144 °C gives the thermodynamically favored cis-Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-X]2Cl2 isomers. Electronic structure calculations confirm the greater stability of the cis diastereomer. The molecular structures for each pair of geometric isomers have been determined by X-ray diffraction analyses. Cyclic voltammetry experiments on the complexes show an oxidative response and a reductive response within 0.50 to 0.93 V and -0.76 to -1.24 V vs. SCE respectively. The cis-Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-X]2Cl2 complexes function as catalyst precursors for the acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of primary alcohols to H2 and homo- and cross-coupled esters. When 1,4-butanediol and 1,5-pentanediol are employed as substrates, lactones and hydroxyaldehydes are produced as the major dehydrogenation products, while secondary alcohols afforded ketones in excellent yields. The mechanism for the dehydrogenation of benzyl alcohol to benzyl benzoate and H2 using cis-Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-H]2Cl2 (cis-1) as a catalyst precursor was investigated by DFT calculations. The data support a catalytic cycle that involves the four-coordinate species Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-H][κ1-N-DAB-H](κ1-OCH2Ph) whose protonated κ1-diazabutadiene moiety functions as a chemically non-innocent ligand that facilitates a β-hydrogen elimination from the κ1-O-benzoxide ligand to give the corresponding hydride HRu[κ2-N,N-DAB-H][κ1-N-DAB-H](κ2-O,C-benzaldehyde). H2 production follows a Noyori-type elimination to give (H2)Ru[κ2-N,N-DAB-H][κ1-N-DAB-H](κ1-O-benzaldehyde) as an intermediate in the catalytic cycle.

Abstract
Novel energy and atom efficiency processes will be keys to develop the sustainable chemical industry of the future. Electrification could play an important role, by allowing to fine-tune energy input and using the ideal redox agent: the electron. Here we demonstrate that a commercially available Milstein ruthenium catalyst (1) can be used to promote the electrochemical oxidation of ethanol to ethyl acetate and acetate, thus demonstrating the four electron oxidation under preparative conditions. Cyclic voltammetry and DFT-calculations are used to devise a possible catalytic cycle based on a thermal chemical step generating the key hydride intermediate. Successful electrification of Milstein-type catalysts opens a pathway to use alcohols as a renewable feedstock for the generation of esters and other key building blocks in organic chemistry, thus contributing to increase energy efficiency in organic redox chemistry.

Abstract
The long-established practice of using organic solvents in synthetic chemistry is currently becoming a major focus of environmental alarms as many of the chemical wastes are generated in the form of organic solvents. Recently, various alternative solvents have been recognized by the scientific community, including water, ionic liquids, supercritical fluids, glycerol, polyethylene glycol, etc. Among these alternatives, water is unquestionably an ideal solvent as it is abundant, cheap, non-toxic, and non-flammable. In the last few decades, a breakthrough has been achieved in the field of transition metal-catalyzed dehydrogenation of alcohols and the related chemistry for the sustainable synthesis of a wide range of valuable compounds. Although a large number of reports with new potential are published every year following this alcohol dehydrogenation strategy, the utilization of water as a solvent in alcohol dehydrogenation and related coupling reactions is yet to be highlighted properly. This review summarizes the advances in metal-catalyzed dehydrogenative functionalization of alcohols using water as a solvent.

Abstract
![]()
The choice of a solvent
and the reaction conditions often defines
the overall behavior of a homogeneous catalytic system by affecting
the preferred reaction mechanism and thus the activity and selectivity
of the catalytic process. Here, we explore the role of solvation in
the mechanism of ketone reduction using a model representative of
a bifunctional Mn-diamine catalyst through density functional theory
calculations in a microsolvated environment by considering explicit
solvent and fully solvated ab initio molecular dynamics simulations
for the key elementary steps. Our computational analysis reveals the
possibility of a Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley (MPV) type
mechanism in this system, which does not involve the participation
of the N–H moiety and the formation of a transition-metal hydride
species in ketone conversion. This path was not previously considered
for Mn-based metal–ligand cooperative transfer hydrogenation
homogeneous catalysis. The MPV mechanism is strongly facilitated by
the solvent molecules present in the reaction environment and can
potentially contribute to the catalytic performance of other related
catalyst systems. Calculations indicate that, despite proceeding effectively
in the second coordination sphere of the transition-metal center,
the MPV reaction path retains the enantioselectivity preference induced
by the presence of the small chiral N,N′-dimethyl-1,2-cyclohexanediamine ligand within the catalytic
Mn(I) complex.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is one of the key technologies of the clean energy economy. Molecular-level understanding of the CO2RR process is instrumental for the better design of electrodes operable at low overpotentials with high current density. The catalytic mechanism underlying the turnover and selectivity of the CO2RR is modulated by the nature of the electrocatalyst, as well as the electrolyte liquid, and its ionic components that form the electrical double layer (EDL). Herein we demonstrate the critical non-innocent role of the EDL for the activation and conversion of CO2 at a high cathodic bias for electrocatalytic conversion over a silver surface as a representative low-cost model cathode. By using a multiscale modeling approach we demonstrate that under such conditions a dense EDL is formed, which hinders the diffusion of CO2 towards the Ag111 electrocatalyst surface. By combining DFT calculations and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations we identify favorable pathways for CO2 reduction directly over the EDL without the need for adsorption to the catalyst surface. The dense EDL promotes homogeneous phase reduction of CO2 via electron transfer from the surface to the electrolyte. Such an outer-sphere mechanism favors the formation of formate as the CO2RR product. The formate can undergo dehydration to CO via a transition state stabilized by solvated alkali cations in the EDL.

Abstract
Homogeneous ruthenium catalysed methanol dehydrogenation could become a key reaction for hydrogen production in liquid fuel cells. In order to improve existing catalytic systems, mechanistic insight is paramount in directing future studies. Herein, we describe what computational mechanistic research has taught us so far about ruthenium catalysed dehydrogenation reactions. In general, two mechanistic pathways can be operative in these reactions: a metal-centered or a metal-ligand cooperative (Noyori-Morris type) minimum energy reaction pathway (MERP). Discerning between these mechanisms on the basis of computational studies has proven to be highly input dependent, and to circumvent pitfalls it is important to consider several factors, such as solvent effects, metal-ligand cooperativity, alternative geometries, and complex electronic structures of metal centres. This Frontiers article summarizes the reported computational research performed on ruthenium catalyzed dehydrogenation reactions performed in the past decade, and serves as a guide for future research.

Abstract
AbstractIn homogeneous catalysis solvent is an inherent part of the catalytic system. As such, it must be considered in the computational modeling. The most common approach to include solvent effects in quantum mechanical calculations is by means of continuum solvent models. When they are properly used, average solvent effects are efficiently captured, mainly those related with solvent polarity. However, neglecting atomistic description of solvent molecules has its limitations, and continuum solvent models all alone cannot be applied to whatever situation. In many cases, inclusion of explicit solvent molecules in the quantum mechanical description of the system is mandatory. The purpose of this article is to highlight through selected examples what are the reasons that urge to go beyond the continuum models to the employment of micro-solvated (cluster-continuum) of fully explicit solvent models, in this way setting the limits of continuum solvent models in computational homogeneous catalysis. These examples showcase that inclusion of solvent molecules in the calculation not only can improve the description of already known mechanisms but can yield new mechanistic views of a reaction. With the aim of systematizing the use of explicit solvent models, after discussing the success and limitations of continuum solvent models, issues related with solvent coordination and solvent dynamics, solvent effects in reactions involving small, charged species, as well as reactions in protic solvents and the role of solvent as reagent itself are successively considered.

Abstract
CO2 hydrogenation into value-added chemicals not only offer an economically beneficial outlet but also help reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. Herein, the density functional theory (DFT) studies have been carried out on CO2 hydrogenation reaction for formamide production catalyzed by two different N-H ligand types of PNP iron catalysts. The results suggest that the whole mechanistic pathway has three parts: (i) precatalyst activation, (ii) hydrogenation of CO2 to generate formic acid (HCOOH), and (iii) amine thermal condensation to formamide with HCOOH. The lower turnover number (TON) of a bifunctional catalyst system in hydrogenating CO2 may attribute to the facile side-reaction between CO2 and bifunctional catalyst, which inhibits the generation of active species. Regarding the bifunctional catalyst system addressed in this work, we proposed a ligand participated mechanism due to the low pKa of the ligand N-H functional in the associated stage in the catalytic cycle. Remarkably, catalysts without the N-H ligand exhibit the significant transfer hydrogenation through the metal centered mechanism. Due to the excellent catalytic nature of the N-H ligand methylated catalyst, the N-H bond was not necessary for stabilizing the intermediate. Therefore, we confirmed that N-H ligand methylated catalysts allow for an efficient CO2 hydrogenation reaction compared to the bifunctional catalysts. Furthermore, the influence of Lewis acid and strong base on catalytic N-formylation were considered. Both significantly impact the catalytic performance. Moreover, the catalytic activity of PNMeP-based Mn, Fe and Ru complexes for CO2 hydrogenation to formamides was explored as well. The energetic span of Fe and Mn catalysts are much closer to the precious metal Ru, which indicates that such non-precious metal catalysts have potentially valuable applications.

Abstract
Computational methods have emerged as a powerful tool to augment traditional experimental molecular catalyst design by providing useful predictions of catalyst performance and decreasing the time needed for catalyst screening. In this perspective, we discuss three approaches for computational molecular catalyst design: (i) the reaction mechanism-based approach that calculates all relevant elementary steps, finds the rate and selectivity determining steps, and ultimately makes predictions on catalyst performance based on kinetic analysis, (ii) the descriptor-based approach where physical/chemical considerations are used to find molecular properties as predictors of catalyst performance, and (iii) the data-driven approach where statistical analysis as well as machine learning (ML) methods are used to obtain relationships between available data/features and catalyst performance. Following an introduction to these approaches, we cover their strengths and weaknesses and highlight some recent key applications. Furthermore, we present an outlook on how the currently applied approaches may evolve in the near future by addressing how recent developments in building automated computational workflows and implementing advanced ML models hold promise for reducing human workload, eliminating human bias, and speeding up computational catalyst design at the same time. Finally, we provide our viewpoint on how some of the challenges associated with the up-and-coming approaches driven by automation and ML may be resolved.

Abstract
Glycolic acid is a useful and important α-hydroxy acid that has broad applications. Herein, the homogeneous ruthenium catalyzed reforming of aqueous ethylene glycol to generate glycolic acid as well as pure hydrogen gas, without concomitant CO2 emission, is reported. This approach provides a clean and sustainable direction to glycolic acid and hydrogen, based on inexpensive, readily available, and renewable ethylene glycol using 0.5 mol % of catalyst. In-depth mechanistic experimental and computational studies highlight key aspects of the PNNH-ligand framework involved in this transformation.

Abstract
Methanol dehydrogenation is an efficient way to produce syngas with high quality. The current efficiency of sunlight-driven methanol dehydrogenation is poor, which is limited by the lack of excellent catalysts and effective methods to convert sunlight into chemicals. Here, we show that atomically substitutional Pt-doped in CeO2 nanosheets (Pts-CeO2) exhibit excellent methanol dehydrogenation activity with 500-hr level catalytic stability, 11 times higher than that of Pt nanoparticles/CeO2. Further, we introduce a photothermal conversion device to heat Pts-CeO2 up to 299°C under 1 sun irradiation owning to efficient full sunlight absorption and low heat dissipation, thus achieving an extraordinarily high methanol dehydrogenation performance with a 481.1 mmol g−1 h−1 of H2 production rate and a high solar-to-hydrogen (STH) efficiency of 32.9%. Our method represents another progress for ambient sunlight-driven stable and active methanol dehydrogenation technology. Atomically substitutional Pt-doped CeO2 is active and robust for CH3OH dehydrogenation The photothermal conversion device can heat Pts-CeO2 to 299°C under 1 sun irradiation The joint system achieves a one sun irradiated H2 production rate of 481.1 mmol g−1 h−1 This system delivers a high solar-to-H2 efficiency of 32.9% under one sun irradiation
