Impact of the Methylene Bridge Substitution in Chelating NHC-Phosphine Mn(I) Catalyst for Ketone Hydrogenation. Chemistry 2024; 30:e202304201. [PMID: 38314964 DOI: 10.1002/chem.202304201] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2023] [Revised: 02/03/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/07/2024]
Abstract
Systematic modification of the chelating NHC-phosphine ligand (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) in highly efficient ketone hydrogenation Mn(I) catalyst fac-[(Ph2PCH2NHC)Mn(CO)3Br] has been performed and the catalytic activity of the resulting complexes was evaluated using acetophenone as a benchmark substrate. While the variation of phosphine and NHC moieties led to inferior results than for a parent system, the incorporation of a phenyl substituent into the ligand methylene bridge improved catalytic performance by ca. 3 times providing maximal TON values in the range of 15000-20000. Mechanistic investigation combining experimental and computational studies allowed to rationalize this beneficial effect as an enhanced stabilization of reaction intermediates including anionic hydride species fac-[(Ph2PC(Ph)NHC)Mn(CO)3H]- playing a crucial role in the hydrogenation process. These results highlight the interest of such carbon bridge substitution strategy being rarely employed in the design of chemically non-innocent ligands.

Abstract
A catalytic method for the direct synthesis of oximes from alcohols and hydroxyl amine hydrochloride salt is reported. The reaction is catalyzed by a ruthenium pincer catalyst, which oxidizes alcohols involving amine-amide metal-ligand cooperation, and the in situ formed aldehydes condense with hydroxyl amine to deliver the oximes. Notably, the reaction requires only a catalyst and base; water and liberated hydrogen are the only byproducts, making this protocol attractive and environmentally benign.

Abstract
Reduction of nitrous oxide (N2O) with H2 to N2 and water is an attractive process for the decomposition of this greenhouse gas to environmentally benign species. Herein, a series of iridium complexes based on proton-responsive pincer ligands (1-4) are shown to catalyze the hydrogenation of N2O under mild conditions (2 bar H2/N2O (1:1), 30 °C). Among the tested catalysts, the Ir complex 4, based on a lutidine-derived CNP pincer ligand having nonequivalent phosphine and N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) side donors, gave rise to the highest catalytic activity (turnover frequency (TOF) = 11.9 h-1 at 30 °C, and 16.4 h-1 at 55 °C). Insights into the reaction mechanism with 4 have been obtained through NMR spectroscopy. Thus, reaction of 4 with N2O in tetrahydrofuran-d8 (THF-d8) initially produces deprotonated (at the NHC arm) species 5NHC, which readily reacts with H2 to regenerate the trihydride complex 4. However, prolonged exposure of 4 to N2O for 6 h yields the dinitrogen Ir(I) complex 7P, having a deprotonated (at the P-arm) pincer ligand. Complex 7P is a poor catalytic precursor in the N2O hydrogenation, pointing out to the formation of 7P as a catalyst deactivation pathway. Moreover, when the reaction of 4 with N2O is carried out in wet THF-d8, formation of a new species, which has been assigned to the hydroxo species 8, is observed. Finally, taking into account the experimental results, density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to get information on the catalytic cycle steps. Calculations are in agreement with 4 as the TOF-determining intermediate (TDI) and the transfer of an apical hydrido ligand to the terminal nitrogen atom of N2O as the TOF-determining transition state (TDTS), with very similar reaction rates for the mechanisms involving either the NHC- or the P-CH2 pincer methylene linkers.

Abstract
![]()
Metal complexes incorporating
proton-responsive ligands have been
proved to be superior catalysts in reactions involving the H2 molecule. In this contribution, a series of IrIII complexes
based on lutidine-derived CNNH pincers containing N-heterocyclic
carbene and secondary amino NHR [R = Ph (4a), tBu (4b), benzyl (4c)] donors
as flanking groups have been synthesized and tested in the dehydrogenation
of ammonia–borane (NH3BH3, AB) in the
presence of substoichiometric amounts (2.5 equiv) of tBuOK. These preactivated derivatives are efficient catalysts in AB
dehydrogenation in THF at room temperature, albeit significantly different
reaction rates were observed. Thus, by using 0.4 mol % of 4a, 1.0 equiv of H2 per mole of AB was released
in 8.5 min (turnover frequency (TOF50%) = 1875 h–1), while complexes 4b and 4c (0.8 mol %)
exhibited lower catalytic activities (TOF50% = 55–60
h–1). 4a is currently the best performing
IrIII homogeneous catalyst for AB dehydrogenation. Kinetic
rate measurements show a zero-order dependence with respect to AB,
and first order with the catalyst in the dehydrogenation with 4a (−d[AB]/dt = k[4a]). Conversely, the reaction with 4b is second order in AB and first order in the catalyst (−d[AB]/dt = k[4b][AB]2).
Moreover, the reactions of the derivatives 4a and 4b with an excess of tBuOK (2.5 equiv) have
been analyzed through NMR spectroscopy. For the former precursor,
formation of the iridate 5 was observed as a result of
a double deprotonation at the amine and the NHC pincer arm. In marked
contrast, in the case of 4b, a monodeprotonated (at the
pincer NHC-arm) species 6 is observed upon reaction with tBuOK. Complex 6 is capable of activating H2 reversibly to yield the trihydride derivative 7. Finally, DFT calculations of the first AB dehydrogenation step
catalyzed by 5 has been performed at the DFT//MN15 level
of theory in order to get information on the predominant metal–ligand
cooperation mode. Iridium complexes
based on CNNH ligands containing
two potential proton-responsive sites—a lutidine scaffold and
a secondary amino group—have been tested in the dehydrogenation
of ammonia-borane. Upon reaction with base, depending on the amino
group acidity, mono- or doubly deprotonated species exhibiting significantly
different catalytic activities were observed.
