Abstract
The synthesis and structures of nitrile complexes of V(N[tBu]Ar)3, 2 (Ar = 3,5-Me2C6H3), are described. Thermochemical and kinetic data for their formation were determined by variable temperature Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), calorimetry, and stopped-flow techniques. The extent of back-bonding from metal to coordinated nitrile indicates that electron donation from the metal to the nitrile plays a less prominent role for 2 than for the related complex Mo(N[tBu]Ar)3, 1. Kinetic studies reveal similar rate constants for nitrile binding to 2, but the activation parameters depend critically on the nature of R in RCN. Activation enthalpies range from 2.9 to 7.2 kcal·mol-1, and activation entropies from -9 to -28 cal·mol-1·K-1 in an opposing manner. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations provide a plausible explanation supporting the formation of a π-stacking interaction between a pendant arene of the metal anilide of 2 and the arene substituent on the incoming nitrile in favorable cases. Data for ligand binding to 1 do not exhibit this range of activation parameters and are clustered in a small area centered at ΔH‡ = 5.0 kcal·mol-1 and ΔS‡ = -26 cal·mol-1·K-1. Computational studies are in agreement with the experimental data and indicate a stronger dependence on electronic factors associated with the change in spin state upon ligand binding to 1.
