Abstract
By exploiting the high aggregation of aliphatic lithium acetylides, here we report the synthesis and structural analysis of polynuclear lithium nickelate clusters in which up to 10 equivalents of organolithium can co-complex per Ni(0) centre. Exposure of the Ni(0)-ate clusters to dry air provides an alternative route to homoleptic Ni(II)-ates.

The role of a redox-active non-innocent ligand in additive-free C-C Glaser-Hay and Suzuki coupling reactions by an o-aminophenol palladium(ii) complex. RSC Adv 2023; 13:3278-3289. [PMID: 36756395 PMCID: PMC9855615 DOI: 10.1039/d2ra07252a] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/15/2022] [Accepted: 01/01/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
A novel mononuclear palladium complex with 2-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl amino) benzonitrile as a non-innocent ligand (abbreviated as PdIIL2 NIS) was synthesized, and characterized by IR, UV-Vis, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopies and elemental analysis. The crystal structure clearly showed that the metal center was in a square planar environment. The bond lengths obtained from X-ray structure analysis revealed that both ligands are in the o-iminobenzosemiquinone radical form. The neutral complex showed strong absorptions in the NIR region, corresponding to the ILCT (intra-ligand charge transfer). Catalytic tests performed for the coupling reaction of terminal alkynes showed that the palladium PdIIL2 NIS complex acts as a highly effective catalyst for the base-free C-C coupling reactions, leading to diyne derivatives with excellent yields. The PdIIL2 NIS complex in ethanol, as a green solvent, is demonstrated to be an exceptionally active phosphine-free catalyst for the Suzuki reaction of aryl iodides and bromides. The reaction can be carried out under mild conditions (room temperature) with high yields without using a microwave or phosphine ligands. This catalyst exhibits an interesting application of redox non-innocent ligands, the electron reservoir behavior, which makes it needless to use additional reagents. The theoretical calculation provides more details about the complex structure, molecular orbitals, and electronic state.

Abstract
A Cu(II) complex, [Cu(HL)(NO3)(CH3OH)]·CH3OH (1), was obtained by the reaction of Cu(NO3)2·3H2O and H2L in methanol solvent (H2L is (E)-4-amino-N'-(2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzylidene)benzohydrazide). H2L and compound 1 were characterized by various spectroscopic analyses and the molecular structure of [Cu(HL)(NO3)(CH3OH)]·CH3OH was determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The results indicated the product is a mononuclear Cu(II) complex and contains a free NH2 functional group on the structure of the ligand. [Cu(HL)(NO3)(CH3OH)]·CH3OH was used for the preparation of a heterogeneous catalyst by supporting it on functionalized silica gel. The heterogeneous catalyst (Si-Cu) was prepared by an amidification reaction of [Cu(HL)(NO3)(CH3OH)]·CH3OH with functionalized silica gel. The resulting silica-supported catalyst (Si-Cu) was characterized by TGA, FT-IR, EPR, DRS, EDS, XRD, SEM and XPS analyses. Si-Cu was employed in a carbon-carbon coupling reaction and the effects of the amount of Si-Cu and temperature were investigated in the catalytic coupling. The structure of one of the products of the catalytic reactions (C16H22O2, CP1) was determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis, which proved the formation of a C-C bond and the production of di-acetylene by homocoupling of terminal alkyne. This catalytic system is stable and it can be reused for a coupling reaction without a significant change in its catalytic activity.

Abstract
It was recently discovered that (Ph2PPrPDI)Mn (PDI = pyridine diimine) exists as a superposition of low-spin Mn(II) that is supported by a PDI dianion and intermediate-spin Mn(II) that is antiferromagnetically coupled to a triplet PDI dianion, a finding that encouraged the synthesis and electronic structure evaluation of late first row metal variants that feature the same chelate. The addition of Ph2PPrPDI to FeBr2 resulted in bromide dissociation and the formation of [(Ph2PPrPDI)FeBr][Br]. Reduction of this precursor using excess sodium amalgam afforded (Ph2PPrPDI)Fe, which possesses an Fe(II) center that is supported by a dianionic PDI ligand. Similarly, reduction of a premixed solution of Ph2PPrPDI and CoCl2 yielded the cobalt analog, (Ph2PPrPDI)Co. EPR spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations revealed that this compound features a high-spin Co(I) center that is antiferromagnetically coupled to a PDI radical anion. The addition of Ph2PPrPDI to Ni(COD)2 resulted in ligand displacement and the formation of (Ph2PPrPDI)Ni, which was found to possess a pendent phosphine group. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction, CASSCF calculations, and EPR spectroscopy indicate that (Ph2PPrPDI)Ni is best described as having a Ni(II)-PDI2- configuration. The electronic differences between these compounds are highlighted, and a computational analysis of Ph2PPrPDI denticity has revealed the thermodynamic penalties associated with phosphine dissociation from 5-coordinate (Ph2PPrPDI)Mn, (Ph2PPrPDI)Fe, and (Ph2PPrPDI)Co.

Biradical o-iminobenzosemiquinonato(1-) complexes of nickel(ii): catalytic activity in three-component coupling of aldehydes, amines and alkynes. RSC Adv 2021; 11:12845-12859.

Abstract
The six-coordinated bis-o-iminosemiquinone complex, NiL2 BIS, in which LBIS is the o-iminosemiquinone 1-electron oxidized form of the tridentate o-aminophenol benzoxazole-based ligand H2LBAP, was synthesized and characterized. The crystal structure of the complex reveals octahedral geometry with a NiN4O2 coordination sphere in which Ni(ii) has been surrounded by two tridentate LBIS ligands. This compound exhibits (S Ni = 1) with both spin and orbital contribution to the magnetic moment and antiferromagnetic coupling between two electrons on two LBIS ligands which results in a triplet spin ground state (S = 1). The electronic transitions and the electrochemical behavior of this open-shell molecule are presented here, based on experimental observations and theoretical calculations. The electrochemical behavior of NiL2 BIS was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and indicates ligand-centered redox processes. Three-component coupling of aldehydes, amines and alkynes (A3-coupling) was studied in the presence of the NiL2 BIS complex, and the previously reported four-coordinated bis-o-iminosemiquinone NiL2 NIS. Furthermore, among these two o-iminobenzosemiquinonato(1-) complexes of Ni(ii) (NiL2 NIS and NiL2 BIS), NiL2 NIS was found to be an efficient catalyst in A3-coupling at 85 °C under solvent-free conditions and can be recovered and reused for several cycles with a small decrease in activity.
