Structure and Electronic Character of an Unsymmetrical Dimolybdenum μ-Nitrido Complex Formed by Incomplete Nitrogen Atom Transfer. Inorg Chem 2024; 63:8376-8389. [PMID: 38663089 PMCID: PMC11080062 DOI: 10.1021/acs.inorgchem.4c00762] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2024] [Revised: 04/05/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
In contrast to a tungsten nitrido complex endowed with a tripodal silanolate ligand framework, which was reported in the literature to be a dimeric species with a metallacyclic core, the corresponding molybdenum nitrides 3 are monomeric entities comprising a regular terminal nitride unit, as proven by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD). Their electronic character is largely determined by the constraints imposed on the metal center by the podand ligand architecture. 95Mo nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and, to a lesser extent, 14N NMR spectroscopy allow these effects to be studied, which become particularly apparent upon comparison with the spectral data of related molybdenum nitrides comprising unrestrained silanolate, alkoxide, or amide ligands. Attempted nitrogen atom transfer from these novel terminal nitrides to [(tBuArN)3Mo] (Ar = 3,5-dimethylphenyl) as the potential acceptor stopped at the stage of unsymmetric dimolybdenum μ-nitrido complex 13a as the first intermediate along the reaction pathway. SC-XRD, NMR, electron paramagnetic resonance, and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy as well as magnetometry in combination with density functional theory allowed a clear picture of the geometric and electronic structure of this mixed-valent species to be drawn. 13a is formally best described as an adduct of the type [(Mo[O])+III-(μN)-III-(Mo[N])+VI], S = 1/2 complex with (Mo[O])+III in the low-spin configuration, whereas related complexes such as [(AdS)3Mo-(μN)-Mo(NtBuAr)3] (19; Ad = 1-adamantyl) have previously been regarded in the literature as mixed-valent Mo+IV/Mo+V species. The spin population at the two Mo centers is uneven and notably larger at the more reduced Mo[O] atom, whereas the only spin present at the (μN) bridge is derived from spin polarization.

Abstract
The activation of dinitrogen by coordination to transition metal ions is a widely used and promising approach to the utilization of Earth's most abundant nitrogen source for chemical synthesis. End-on bridging N2 complexes (μ-η1:η1-N2) are key species in nitrogen fixation chemistry, but a lack of consensus on the seemingly simple task of assigning a Lewis structure for such complexes has prevented application of valence electron counting and other tools for understanding and predicting reactivity trends. The Lewis structures of bridging N2 complexes have traditionally been determined by comparing the experimentally observed NN distance to the bond lengths of free N2, diazene, and hydrazine. We introduce an alternative approach here and argue that the Lewis structure should be assigned based on the total π-bond order in the MNNM core (number of π-bonds), which derives from the character (bonding or antibonding) and occupancy of the delocalized π-symmetry molecular orbitals (π-MOs) in MNNM. To illustrate this approach, the complexes cis,cis-[(iPr4PONOP)MCl2]2(μ-N2) (M = W, Re, and Os) are examined in detail. Each complex is shown to have a different number of nitrogen-nitrogen and metal-nitrogen π-bonds, indicated as, respectively: W≡N-N≡W, Re═N═N═Re, and Os-N≡N-Os. It follows that each of these Lewis structures represents a distinct class of complexes (diazanyl, diazenyl, and dinitrogen, respectively), in which the μ-N2 ligand has a different electron donor number (total of 8e-, 6e-, or 4e-, respectively). We show how this classification can greatly aid in understanding and predicting the properties and reactivity patterns of μ-N2 complexes.

Abstract
The reduction of nitrogen oxyanions is critical for the remediation of eutrophication caused by anthropogenic perturbations to the natural nitrogen cycle. There are many approaches to nitrogen oxyanion reduction, and here we report our advances in reductive deoxygenation using pre-reduced N-heterocycles. We show examples of nitrogen oxyanion reduction using Cr, Fe, Co, Ni, and Zn, and we evaluate the role of metal choice, number of coordinated oxyanions, and ancillary ligands on the reductive transformations. We report the experimental challenges faced and provide an outlook on new directions to repurpose nitrogen oxyanions into value-added products.

Abstract
We report the synthesis and characterisation of a series of siloxide-functionalised polyoxovanadate-alkoxide (POV-alkoxide) clusters, [V6O6(OSiMe3)(OMe)12] n (n = 1-, 2-), that serve as molecular models for proton and hydrogen-atom uptake in vanadium dioxide, respectively. Installation of a siloxide moiety on the surface of the Lindqvist core was accomplished via addition of trimethylsilyl trifluoromethylsulfonate to the fully-oxygenated cluster [V6O7(OMe)12]2-. Characterisation of [V6O6(OSiMe3)(OMe)12]1- by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveals that the incorporation of the siloxide group does not result in charge separation within the hexavanadate assembly, an observation that contrasts directly with the behavior of clusters bearing substitutional dopants. The reduced assembly, [V6O6(OSiMe3)(OMe)12]2-, provides an isoelectronic model for H-doped VO2, with a vanadium(iii) ion embedded within the cluster core. Notably, structural analysis of [V6O6(OSiMe3)(OMe)12]2- reveals bond perturbations at the siloxide-functionalised vanadium centre that resemble those invoked upon H-atom uptake in VO2 through ab initio calculations. Our results offer atomically precise insight into the local structural and electronic consequences of the installation of hydrogen-atom-like dopants in VO2, and challenge current perspectives of the operative mechanism of electron-proton co-doping in these materials.

Abstract
Light-driven N2 cleavage into molecular nitrides is an attractive strategy for synthetic nitrogen fixation. However, suitable platforms are rare. Furthermore, the development of catalytic protocols via this elementary step suffers from poor understanding of N-N photosplitting within dinitrogen complexes, as well as of the thermochemical and kinetic framework for coupled follow-up chemistry. We here present a tungsten pincer platform, which undergoes fully reversible, thermal N2 splitting and reverse nitride coupling, allowing for experimental derivation of thermodynamic and kinetic parameters of the N-N cleavage step. Selective N-N splitting was also obtained photolytically. DFT computations allocate the productive excitations within the {WNNW} core. Transient absorption spectroscopy shows ultrafast repopulation of the electronic ground state. Comparison with ground-state kinetics and resonance Raman data support a pathway for N-N photosplitting via a nonstatistically vibrationally excited ground state that benefits from vibronically coupled structural distortion of the core. Nitride carbonylation and release are demonstrated within a full synthetic cycle for trimethylsilylcyanate formation directly from N2 and CO.

Abstract
A high-spin, mononuclear TiII complex, [(TptBu,Me)TiCl] [TptBu,Me- = hydridotris(3-tert-butyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl)borate], confined to a tetrahedral ligand-field environment, has been prepared by reduction of the precursor [(TptBu,Me)TiCl2] with KC8. Complex [(TptBu,Me)TiCl] has a 3A2 ground state (assuming C3v symmetry based on structural studies), established via a combination of high-frequency and -field electron paramagnetic resonance (HFEPR) spectroscopy, solution and solid-state magnetic studies, Ti K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS), and both density functional theory and ab initio (complete-active-space self-consistent-field, CASSCF) calculations. The formally and physically defined TiII complex readily binds tetrahydrofuran (THF) to form the paramagnetic adduct [(TptBu,Me)TiCl(THF)], which is impervious to N2 binding. However, in the absence of THF, the TiII complex captures N2 to produce the diamagnetic complex [(TptBu,Me)TiCl]2(η1,η1;μ2-N2), with a linear Ti═N═N═Ti topology, established by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The N2 complex was characterized using XAS as well as IR and Raman spectroscopies, thus establishing this complex to possess two TiIII centers covalently bridged by an N22- unit. A π acid such as CNAd (Ad = 1-adamantyl) coordinates to [(TptBu,Me)TiCl] without inducing spin pairing of the d electrons, thereby forming a unique high-spin and five-coordinate TiII complex, namely, [(TptBu,Me)TiCl(CNAd)]. The reducing power of the coordinatively unsaturated TiII-containing [(ΤptBu,Me)TiCl] species, quantified by electrochemistry, provides access to a family of mononuclear TiIV complexes of the type [(TptBu,Me)Ti═E(Cl)] (with E2- = NSiMe3, N2CPh2, O, and NH) by virtue of atom- or group-transfer reactions using various small molecules such as N3SiMe3, N2CPh2, N2O, and the bicyclic amine 2,3:5,6-dibenzo-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]hepta-2,5-diene.

Abstract
A pyridine-stabilized silanonetungsten complex Cp*(OC)2W{O[double bond, length as m-dash]SiMes2(py)}(SiMe3) (1b, Cp* = η5-C5Me5, Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2, py = C5H5N) was obtained by the reaction of a silyl(silylene) complex Cp*(OC)2W([double bond, length as m-dash]SiMes2)(SiMe3) (3) with pyridine-N-oxide in pyridine. X-ray crystal structure determination revealed that complex 1b shows a similar geometry to that observed for a previously synthesized DMAP-stabilized analogue, Cp*(OC)2W{O[double bond, length as m-dash]SiMes2(DMAP)}(SiMe3) (1a, DMAP = 4-NMe2C6H4N). The Si[double bond, length as m-dash]O and W-O bond distances in 1b are comparable to those observed in 1a, but the nitrogen to silicon coordination bond of 1b is slightly longer (ca. 0.05 Å) than that of 1a, indicating the weaker coordination of pyridine than that of DMAP. The reaction of 1b with excess PMe3 in C6D6 at r. t. proceeded via elimination of pyridine to afford a five-membered metallacyclic carbene complex, Cp*(OC)W([double bond, length as m-dash]C(SiMe3)OSiMes2O)(PMe3) (5), but that of 1a with PMe3 did not proceed at all. Complex 5 was further transformed in C7D8 at 100 °C for 4 h to give a four-membered W-O-Si-O metallacyclic complex with carbyne and PMe3 ligands, Cp*W(OSiMes2O)([triple bond, length as m-dash]CSiMe3)(PMe3) (7). The structural features of complexes 1b, 5, and 7 are comparable to those suggested theoretically as intermediates in the reaction of 3 with a sulfuration reagent to afford a six-membered metallacyclic carbene complex, Cp*W(S){[double bond, length as m-dash]C(SiMe3)C([double bond, length as m-dash]O)OSiMes2S} (6), indicating that complex 1b and the theoretically proposed silanethione complex are transformed via a similar reaction pathway.

Application of the diamide, diimine {-CH[double bond, length as m-dash]N(1,2-C6H4)N(2,6-iPr2-C6H3)}2 m ((dadi) m ) ligand to titanium provided adducts (dadi)TiL x (1-L x ; L x = THF, PMe2Ph, (CNMe)2), which possess the redox formulation [(dadi)4-]Ti(iv)L x , and 22 πe- (4n + 2). Related complexes containing titanium-ligand multiple bonds, (dadi)Ti[double bond, length as m-dash]X (2 [double bond, length as m-dash]X; X = O, NAd), exhibit a different dadi redox state, [(dadi)2-]Ti(iv)X, consistent with 20 πe- (4n). The Redox Non-Innocence (RNI) displayed by dadi m impedes binding by CO, and permits catalytic conversion of AdN3 + CO to AdNCO + N2. Kinetics measurements support carbonylation of 2 [double bond, length as m-dash]NAd as the rate determining step. Structural and computational evidence for the observed RNI is provided.

Abstract
The mechanisms for the oxidation of phenyl and hydride ligands of bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)hafnium derivatives (Cp* = η(5)-C5Me5) by nitrous oxide via selective oxygen atom transfer reactions have been systematically studied by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations. On the basis of the calculations, we investigated the original mechanism proposed by Hillhouse and co-workers for the activation of N2O. The calculations showed that the complex with an initial O-coordination of N2O to the coordinatively unsaturated Hf center is not a local minimum. Then we proposed a new reaction mechanism to investigate how N2O is activated and why N2O selectively oxidize phenyl and hydride ligands of . Frontier molecular orbital theory analysis indicates that N2O is activated by nucleophilic attack by the phenyl or hydride ligand. Present calculations provide new insights into the activation of N2O involving the direct oxygen atom transfer from nitrous oxide to metal-ligand bonds instead of the generally observed oxygen abstraction reaction to generate metal-oxo species.

Abstract
Methanol formation from [Cp*Ir(III)(NHC)Me(CD2Cl2)](+) occurs quantitatively at room temperature with air (O2) as the oxidant and ethanol as a proton source. A rare example of a diiridium bimetallic complex, [(Cp*Ir(NHC)Me)2(μ-O)][(BAr(F)4)2], 3, was isolated and shown to be an intermediate in this reaction. The electronic absorption spectrum of 3 features a broad observation at ∼660 nm, which is primarily responsible for its blue color. In addition, 3 is diamagnetic and can be characterized by NMR spectroscopy. Complex 3 was also characterized by X-ray crystallography and contains an Ir(IV)-O-Ir(IV) core in which two d(5) Ir(IV) centers are bridged by an oxo ligand. DFT and MCSCF calculations reveal several important features of the electronic structure of 3, most notably, that the μ-oxo bridge facilitates communication between the two Ir centers, and σ/π mixing yields a nonlinear arrangement of the μ-oxo core (Ir-O-Ir ∼ 150°) to facilitate oxygen atom transfer. The formation of 3 results from an Ir oxo/oxyl intermediate that may be described by two competing bonding models, which are close in energy and have formal Ir-O bond orders of 2 but differ markedly in their electronic structures. The radical traps TEMPO and 1,4-cyclohexadiene do not inhibit the formation of 3; however, methanol formation from 3 is inhibited by TEMPO. Isotope labeling studies confirmed the origin of the methyl group in the methanol product is the iridium-methyl bond in the [Cp*Ir(NHC)Me(CD2Cl2)][BAr(F)4] starting material. Isolation of the diiridium-containing product [(Cp*Ir(NHC)Cl)2][(BAr(F)4)2], 4, in high yields at the end of the reaction suggests that the Cp* and NHC ligands remain bound to the iridium and are not significantly degraded under reaction conditions.

Abstract
The unsaturated anion [Mo2Cp2(μ-PCy2)(μ-CO)2](-) (Na(+) salt) reacted rapidly with [ReCp'(CO)2(NO)]BF4 in a dichloromethane solution at 253 K to give the oxo nitride tetracarbonyl complex [Mo2ReCp2Cp'(μ-N)(μ-O)(μ-PCy2)(CO)4] as the major product (Cp = η(5)-C5H5; Cp' = η(5)-C5H4Me). This complex underwent spontaneous decarbonylation at room temperature to give the unsaturated tricarbonyl derivative [Mo2ReCp2Cp'(μ-N)(μ-O)(μ-PCy2)(CO)3], a very dioxygen-sensitive molecule rapidly evolving upon manipulation to give the dioxo nitride dicarbonyl complex [Mo2ReCp2Cp'(μ-N)(μ-O)(μ-PCy2)(O)(CO)2] in modest yield. The latter product was obtained as a mixture of isomers, with the major ones differing in the relative arrangement (cis and trans) of their MoCp moieties [Mo-Mo = 2.7707(8) Å in the cis isomer]. The ditungsten anion [W2Cp2(μ-PCy2)(μ-CO)2](-) (Na(+) salt) also reacted rapidly with [ReCp'(CO)2(NO)]BF4 in a dichloromethane solution at 253 K to give an analogous oxo nitride complex, [W2ReCp2Cp'(μ-N)(μ-O)(μ-PCy2)(CO)4], but instead of releasing CO, this complex undergoes at room temperature a reversible insertion of the nitride ligand into a W-PCy2 bond, to reach an equilibrium with its phosphinoimido-bridged isomer [W2ReCp2Cp'(μ3-N:N:P-NPCy2)(O)(CO)4], which displays a V-shaped metal core [W-W = 3.0564(7) Å; W-Re = 2.9021(6) Å]. Decarbonylation of this mixture in a refluxing toluene solution led to partial degradation and condensation of these heterometallic species, to give [ReCp'(CO)3] and the pentanuclear oxo nitride complex [W4ReCp4Cp'(μ2-N)(μ3-N)(μ-O)(O)(μ-PCy2)2(CO)3], a very air-sensitive molecule displaying both linear and trigonal nitride ligands bound to rather unsaturated ditungsten centers [W-W = 2.7246(6) and 2.7900(6) Å].

Abstract
Mo(NMe(2))(4) and the tridentate, dipyrrolyl ligand H(2)dpma(mes) were found to form 5-coordinate Mo(NMe(2))(2)(dpma(mes)) (1), which exhibits spin-crossover behaviour in solution. The complex is a ground state singlet with a barrier of 1150 cm(-1) for production of the triplet in d(8)-toluene. The complex reacts with 1,1-disubstituted hydrazines or O-benzylhydroxylamine to produce nitrido MoN(NMe(2))(dpma(mes)). The mechanism of the 1,1-dimethylhydrazine reaction with 1 was examined along with the mechanism of substitution of NMe(2) with H(2)NNMe(2) in a diamagnetic zirconium analogue. The proposed mechanism involves production of a hydrazido(1-) intermediate, Mo(NMe(2))(NHNMe(2))(dpma(mes)), which undergoes an α,β-proton shift and N-N bond cleavage with metal oxidation to form the nitrido. The rate law for the reaction was found to be -d[1]/dt = k(obs)[1][hydrazine] by initial rate experiments and examination of the full reaction profile. This conversion from hydrazido(1-) to nitrido is somewhat analogous to the proposed mechanism for O-O bond cleavage in some peroxidases.

Abstract
Synthetic protocols and characterization data for a variety of chromium(VI) nitrido compounds of the general formula NCr(NPr(i)(2))(2)X are reported, where X = NPr(i)(2) (1), I (2), Cl (3), Br (4), OTf (5), 1-adamantoxide (6), OSiPh(3) (7), O(2)CPh (8), OBu(t)(F6) (9), OPh (10), O-p-(OMe)C(6)H(4) (11), O-p-(SMe)C(6)H(4) (12), O-p-(Bu(t))C(6)H(4) (13), O-p-(F)C(6)H(4) (14), O-p-(Cl)C(6)H(4) (15), O-p-(CF(3))C(6)H(4) (16), OC(6)F(5) (17), κ(O)-N-oxy-phthalimide (18), SPh (19), OCH(2)Ph (20), NO(3) (21), pyrrolyl (22), 3-C(6)F(5)-pyrrolyl (23), 3-[3,5-(CF(3))(2)C(6)H(3)]pyrrolyl (24), indolyl (25), carbazolyl (26), N(Me)Ph (27), κ(N)-NCO (28), κ(N)-NCS (29), CN (30), NMe(2) (31), F (33). Several different techniques were employed in the syntheses, including nitrogen-atom transfer for the formation of 1. A cationic chromium complex [NCr(NPr(i)(2))(2)(DMAP)]BF(4) (32) was used as an intermediate for the production of 33, which was produced by tin-catalyzed degredation of the salt. Using spin saturation transfer or line shape analysis, the free energy barriers for diisopropylamido rotation were studied. It is proposed that the estimated enthalpic barriers, Ligand Donor Parameters (LDPs), for amido rotation can be used to parametrize the donor abilities of this diverse set of anionic ligands toward transition metal centers in low d-electron counts. The new LDPs do not correlate well to the pK(a) value of X. Conversely, the LDP values of phenoxide ligands do correlate with Hammett parameters for the para-substituents. Literature data for (13)C NMR chemical shifts for a tungsten-based system with various X ligands plotted versus LDP provided a linear fit. In addition, the angular overlap model derived e(σ) + e(π) values for chromium(III) ammine complexes correlate with LDP values. Also discussed is the correlation with XTiCp*(2) spectroscopic data. X-ray diffraction has been used used to characterize 31 of the compounds. From the X-ray diffraction data, steric parameters for the ligands using the Percent Buried Volume and Solid Angle techniques were found.

Abstract
The title compound, [Cu(C3F5O2)(C3H9OP)4](C3F5O2), comprises a cationic CuII complex and a disordered pentafluoropropionate counter-ion. The metal atom has a distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment formed by four O atoms originating from trimethylphosphine oxide molecules and the remaining one belonging to the monodentate pentafluoropropionate anion, which is situated in the basal plane of the pyramid. The molecules are held together in the crystal by a net of weak C—H⋯O and C—H⋯F hydrogen bonds. The counter anion is disordered over two sets of sites in a 0.629 (5):0.371 (5) ratio.

Abstract
We have investigated both the chemical reduction of (BDI)Nb(V) imido complexes (BDI = HC[C(Me)NAr](2); Ar = 2,6-(i)Pr(2)-C(6)H(3)) to the formal Nb(III) oxidation state and the ability of these Nb(III) complexes to behave as two-electron reductants. The reduction of the Nb(V) species was found to depend heavily on the nature of available supporting ligands, but the chemistry of the reduced compounds proceeded cleanly with a number of unsaturated organic reagents. Accordingly, the novel Nb(V) bis(imido) complexes supported by the monoazabutadiene (mad) ligand (mad)Nb(N(t)Bu)(NAr)(L') (L' = py, thf) were formed by either KC(8) reduction of (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)Cl(2)(py) in the absence of strong π-acids or by H(2) reduction of the Nb(V) dimethyl complex (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)Me(2) in THF. These products are likely formed though an intramolecular, 2 e(-) reductive C-N bond cleavage, as has been observed previously for related Group 4 systems, suggesting that transient Nb(III) intermediates were present in both cases. In the presence of 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane (dmpe), KC(8) reduction of (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)Cl(2)(py) was arrested at the Nb(IV) oxidation state to give (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)Cl(dmpe), which was characterized by solution-state EPR spectroscopy as a Nb-centered paramagnet with strong coupling to the two equivalent phosphorus nuclei (A(iso){(93)Nb} = 120.5×10(-4) cm(-1), A(iso){(31)P} = 31.0×10(-4) cm(-1), g(iso) = 1.9815). When strong π-acids were used to intercept the thermally unstable Nb(III) complex (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(py) prior to reductive cleavage of the ligand C-N bond, the thermally stable Nb(III) species (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(CX)(2)(L″) (X = O, L″ = py; X = NXyl, L″ = CNXyl; Xyl = 2,6-Me(2)-C(6)H(3)) were obtained in good yields. The Nb(III) complexes (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)py, (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(CO)(2)(py) and (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(CO)(2) were subsequently investigated for their ability to serve as two-electron reducing reagents for both metal-ligand multiple bond formation and for the reduction of organic π-systems. The reduction of mesityl azide by (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(py) and diphenylsulfoxide by (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(CO)(2) led to the monomeric bis(imido) and dimeric oxo complexes (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(NMes)(py) and [(BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)](2)(μ2-O)(2), respectively. MeLi addition to (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(CO)(2)(py) resulted in the formation of a Nb-acylate via methide addition to one of the carbonyl carbons. The acylate product was revealed to have a short Nb-C(acylate) bond distance (2.059(4) Å), consistent with multiple Nb-C bond character resulting from Nb(III) back-bonding into the acylate carbon. The interaction of (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(CO)(2) with two equivalents of 4,4'-dichlorobenzophenone resulted in the clean, quantitative formation of the corresponding pinacol coupling product, but introduction of the ketone in 1: 1 molar ratios resulted in mixtures of the pinacol product and the starting material, suggesting that ketone coordination to the Nb(III) complex may be reversible. Relatedly, addition of 1-phenyl-1-propyne to (BDI)Nb(N(t)Bu)(CO)(2) formed a thermally unstable 1: 1 Nb/alkyne complex, as characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopies; reaction of this species with HCl/MeOH yielded a 2: 1 mixture of 1-phenyl-1-propene and the free alkyne, suggesting a high degree of covalency in the Nb-C bonds.

Abstract
Sulfur K-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been used to determine the electronic structures of two Mo bis-dithiolene complexes, [Mo(OSi)(bdt)(2)](1-) and [MoO(OSi)(bdt)(2)](1-), where OSi = [OSiPh(2)(t)Bu](1-) and bdt = benzene-1,2-dithiolate(2-), that model the Mo(IV) and Mo(VI)=O states of the DMSO reductase family of molybdenum enzymes. These results show that the Mo(IV) complex undergoes metal-based oxidation unlike Mo tris-dithiolene complexes, indicating that the dithiolene ligands are behaving innocently. Experimentally validated calculations have been extended to model the oxo transfer reaction coordinate using dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) as a substrate. The reaction proceeds through a transition state (TS1) to an intermediate with DMSO weakly bound, followed by a subsequent transition state (TS2) which is the largest barrier of the reaction. The factors that control the energies of these transition states, the nature of the oxo transfer process, and the role of the dithiolene ligand are discussed.

Abstract
Oxygen-atom transfer reactions of metalloporphyrin species play an important role in biochemical and synthetic oxidation reactions. An emerging theme in this chemistry is that spin-state changes can play important roles, and a 'two-state' reactivity model has been extensively applied especially in iron porphyrin systems. Herein we explore the gas-phase oxygen-atom transfer chemistry of meso-tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)porphyrin (TPFPP) chromium complexes, as well as some other tetradentate macrocyclic ligands. Electrospray ionization in concert with Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance (FT-ICR) mass spectrometry has been used to characterize and observe reactivity of the ionic species [(TPFPP)Cr(III)](+) (1) and [(TPFPP)Cr(V)O](+) (2). These are attractive systems to examine the effects of spin-state change on oxygen-atom transfer because the d(1) Cr(V) species are doublets, while the Cr(III) complexes have quartet ground states with high-lying doublet excited states. In the gas phase, [(TPFPP)Cr(III)](+) forms adducts with a variety of neutral donors, but O-atom transfer is only observed for NO(2). Pyridine N-oxide adducts of 1 do yield 2 upon collision-induced dissociation (CID), but the ethylene oxide, DMSO, and TEMPO analogues do not. [(TPFPP)Cr(V)O](+) is shown by its reactivity and by CID experiments to be a terminal metal-oxo with a single, vacant coordination site. It also displays limited reaction chemistry, being deoxygenated only by the very potent reductant P(OMe)(3). In general, [(TPFPP)Cr(V)O](+) species are much less reactive than the Fe and Mn analogues. Thermochemical analysis of the reactions points toward the involvement of spin issues in the lower observed reactivity of the chromium complexes.
