Abstract
Rare earths, scandium, yttrium, and the fifteen lanthanoids from lanthanum to lutetium, are classified as critical metals because of their ubiquity in daily life. They are present in magnets in cars, especially electric cars; green electricity generating systems and computers; in steel manufacturing; in glass and light emission materials especially for safety lighting and lasers; in exhaust emission catalysts and supports; catalysts in artificial rubber production; in agriculture and animal husbandry; in health and especially cancer diagnosis and treatment; and in a variety of materials and electronic products essential to modern living. They have the potential to replace toxic chromates for corrosion inhibition, in magnetic refrigeration, a variety of new materials, and their role in agriculture may expand. This review examines their role in sustainability, the environment, recycling, corrosion inhibition, crop production, animal feedstocks, catalysis, health, and materials, as well as considering future uses.

DFT and ONIOM Simulation of 1,3-Butadiene Polymerization Catalyzed by Neodymium-Based Ziegler-Natta System. Polymers (Basel) 2023; 15:polym15051166. [PMID: 36904407 PMCID: PMC10007399 DOI: 10.3390/polym15051166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2023] [Revised: 02/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Using modern methods of quantum chemistry, a theoretical substantiation of the high cis-stereospecificity of 1,3-butadiene polymerization catalyzed by the neodymium-based Ziegler-Natta system was carried out. For DFT and ONIOM simulation, the most cis-stereospecific active site of the catalytic system was used. By analyzing the total energy, as well as the enthalpy and Gibbs free energy of the simulated catalytically active centers, it was found that the coordination of 1,3-butadiene in the trans-form was more favorable than in the cis-form by 11 kJ/mol. However, as a result of π-allylic insertion mechanism modeling, it was found that the activation energy of cis-1,3-butadiene insertion into the π-allylic neodymium-carbon bond of the terminal group on the reactive growing chain was 10-15 kJ/mol lower than the activation energy of trans-1,3-butadiene insertion. The activation energies did not change when both trans-1,4-butadiene and cis-1,4-butadiene were used for modeling. That is, 1,4-cis-regulation was due not to the primary coordination of 1,3-butadiene in its cis-configuration, but to its lower energy of attachment to the active site. The obtained results allowed us to clarify the mechanism of the high cis-stereospecificity of 1,3-butadiene polymerization by the neodymium-based Ziegler-Natta system.

Coordinative Chain Transfer Polymerization of Sustainable Terpene Monomers Using a Neodymium-Based Catalyst System. Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14142907. [PMID: 35890683 PMCID: PMC9324384 DOI: 10.3390/polym14142907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2022] [Revised: 07/05/2022] [Accepted: 07/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
The present investigation involves the coordinative chain transfer polymerization (CCTP) of biobased terpenes in order to obtain sustainable polymers from myrcene (My) and farnesene (Fa), using the ternary Ziegler–Natta catalyst system comprising [NdV3]/[Al(i-Bu)2H]/[Me2SiCl2] and Al(i-Bu)2H, which acts as cocatalyst and chain transfer agent (CTA). The polymers were produced with a yield above 85% according to the monomeric consumption at the end of the reaction, and the kinetic examination revealed that the catalyst system proceeded with a reversible chain transfer mechanism in the presence of 15–30 equiv. of CTA. The resulting polyterpenes showed narrow molecular weight distributions (Mw/Mn = 1.4–2.5) and a high percent of 1,4-cis microstructure in the presence of 1 equiv. of Me2SiCl2, having control of the molecular weight distribution in Ziegler–Natta catalytic systems that maintain a high generation of 1,4-cis microstructure.

Polymers (Basel) 2022; 14:polym14122352.

Abstract
The interest in the Coordinative Chain Transfer Polymerization (CCTP) of a family of naturally occurring hydrocarbon monomers, namely terpenes, for the production of high-performance rubbers is increasing year by year. In this work, the synthesis of poly(β-myrcene) via CCTP is introduced, using neodymium versatate (NdV3), diisobutylaluminum hydrade (DIBAH) as the catalytic system and dimethyldichlorosilane (Me2SiCl2) as the activator. A bimodal distribution in the GPC signal reveals the presence of two populations at low conversions, attributable to dormants (arising from reversible chain transfer reactions) and dead chains (arising from termination and irreversible chain transfer reactions); a unimodal distribution is generated at medium and high conversions, corresponding to the dominant species, the dormant chains. Additionally, a mathematical kinetic model was developed based on the Method of Moments to study a set of selected experiments: ([β-myrcene]0:[NdV3]0:[DIBAH]0:[Me2SiCl2]0 = 660:1:2:1, 885:1:2:1, and 533:1:2:1). In order to estimate the kinetic rate constant of the systems, a minimization of the sum of squared errors (SSE) between the model predicted values and the experimental measurements was carried out, resulting in an excellent fit. A set of the Arrhenius parameters were estimated for the ratio [β-myrcene]0:[NdV3]0:[DIBAH]0:[Me2SiCl2]0 = 660:1:2:1 in a temperature range between 50 to 70 °C. While the end-group functionality (EGF) was predominantly preserved as the ratio [β-myrcene]0:[NdV3]0 was decreased, higher catalytic activity was obtained with a high ratio.

Abstract
The number of rare earth (RE) starting materials used in synthesis is staggering, ranging from simple binary metal-halide salts to borohydrides and "designer reagents" such as alkyl and organoaluminate complexes. This review collates the most important starting materials used in RE synthetic chemistry, including essential information on their preparations and uses in modern synthetic methodologies. The review is divided by starting material category and supporting ligands (i.e., metals as synthetic precursors, halides, borohydrides, nitrogen donors, oxygen donors, triflates, and organometallic reagents), and in each section relevant synthetic methodologies and applications are discussed.

Abstract
A convenient synthetic route has been developed for preparing the novel rigid 4,5-(PR2)2-2,7,9,9-tetramethylacridane-based pincer ligands (acri-RPNP; R = iPr and Ph), and the first rare-earth (Ln = Y, Lu) alkyl complexes bearing the acri-RPNP ligands were synthesized by a salt metathesis reaction (for the isopropyl-substituent acri-iPrPNP complexes, 1-Ln) or direct alkylation (for the phenyl-substituent acri-PhPNP complexes, 2-Ln). For both 1-Ln and 2-Ln, the NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction study confirmed the successful coordination of the acri-RPNP ligand to the central metal ion in a tridentate manner via the two phosphine and the nitrogen donors. In contrast to 1-Ln that are solvent-free complexes, the metal centers in 2-Ln are each coordinated with one tetrahydrofuran molecule. Upon activation by [Ph3C][B(C6F5)4], 1-Y and 2-Lu could catalyze the living polymerization of isoprene and β-myrcene with high catalytic activity and high cis-1,4-selectivity (up to 92.3% for isoprene and 98.5% for β-myrcene). Moreover, the 1-Y/[Ph3C][B(C6F5)4] catalytic system also could promote the polymerization of butadiene and its copolymerization with isoprene to produce copolymers with high cis-1,4-selectivity and narrow polydispersity.

Abstract
Depending on the molar ratio employed, the reaction of ScCl3(thf)3 with Li[CH(SiMe3)2] afforded the bis and tris(alkyl) ate complexes [Sc{CH(SiMe3)2}2(μ-Cl)2Li(thf)2]2 and Sc[CH(SiMe3)2]3(μ-Cl)Li(thf)3, respectively, in moderate yields. Treatment of these mixed alkyl/chlorido complexes with MeLi gave the mixed alkyl complexes [Sc{CH(SiMe3)2}2(μ-Me)2Li(thf)2]2 and Sc[CH(SiMe3)2]3(μ-Me)Li(thf)3. Aiming at homoleptic {Sc[CH(SiMe3)2]3} both of the mixed [CH(SiMe3)2]/Me complexes were treated with AlMe3. Although LiAlMe4 separation occurred, aluminium complex Al[CH(SiMe3)2]Me2(thf) was the only isolable crystalline complex. Ate complexes [Sc{CH(SiMe3)2}2(μ-Me)2Li(thf)2]2 and [Sc(CH2SiMe3)4][Li(thf)4] revealed the maximum downfield 45Sc NMR chemical shifts of 888.0 and 933.4 ppm, respectively, reported to date. The synthesis of putative {Sc[CH(SiMe3)2]3} was also attempted via the aryloxide route applying complexes Sc(OC6H2tBu2-2,6-Me-4)3 and [Sc(OC6H3iPr2-2,6)3]2 along with Li[CH(SiMe3)2] but the outcome was inconclusive. Instead, a cyclic octamer was found for Li[CH(SiMe3)2] in the solid state.

Abstract
As previously shown for lutetium and yttrium, 1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl (C5Me5 = Cp*)-bearing rare-earth metal dimethyl half-sandwich complexes [Cp*LnMe2]3 are now also accessible for holmium, dysprosium, and terbium via tetramethylaluminato cleavage of [Cp*Ln(AlMe4)2] with diethyl ether (Ho, Dy) and tert-butyl methyl ether (TBME) (Tb). C–H-bond activation and ligand redistribution reactions are observed in case of terbium and are dominant for the next larger-sized gadolinium, as evidenced by the formation of mixed methyl/methylidene clusters [(Cp*Ln)5(CH2)(Me)8] and metallocene dimers [Cp*2Ln(AlMe4)]2 (Ln = Tb, Gd). Applying TBME as a “cleaving” reagent can result in both TBME deprotonation and ether cleavage, as shown for the formation of the 24-membered macrocycle [(Cp*Gd)2(Me)(CH2OtBu)2(AlMe4)]4 or monolanthanum complex [Cp*La(AlMe4){Me3Al(CH2)OtBu}] and monoyttrium complex [Cp*Y(AlMe4)(Me3AlOtBu)], respectively. Complexes [Cp*Ln(AlMe4)2] (Ln = Ho, Dy, Tb, Gd) and [Cp*LnMe2]3 (Ln = Ho, Dy) are applied in isoprene and 1,3-butadiene polymerization, upon activation with borates [Ph3C][B(C6F5)4] and [PhNHMe2][B(C6F5)4], as well as borane B(C6F5)3. The trans-directing effect of AlMe3 in the binary systems [Cp*Ln(AlMe4)2]/borate is revealed and further corroborated by the fabrication of high-cis-1,4 polybutadiene (97%) with “aluminum-free” [Cp*DyMe2]3/[Ph3C][B(C6F5)4]. The formation of multimetallic active species is supported by the polymerization activity of pre-isolated cluster [(Cp*Ho)3Me4(CH2)(thf)2].

Abstract
The hitherto unknown homoleptic tetramethylaluminate complex [Sc(AlMe4)3] could be obtained by reacting the ate complex [Li3ScMe6(thf)1.2] with AlMe3 in the cold. It cocrystallizes with AlMe3 as [Sc(AlMe4)3(Al2Me6)0.5] and decomposes at ambient temperature in n-pentane via multiple C-H bond activations to the mixed methyl/methylidene complex [Sc3(μ3-CH2)2(μ2-CH3)3(AlMe4)2(AlMe3)2]. Donor-induced methylaluminate cleavage of [Sc(AlMe4)3(Al2Me6)0.5] produced [ScMe3]n in good yield, which could be derivatized with trimethyltriazacyclononane (Me3TACN) to form the structurally characterizable [(Me3TACN)ScMe3]. Additionally, half-sandwich complex [Cp*Sc(AlMe4)2] and sandwich complex [Cp*2Sc(AlMe4)] were accessible by salt metathesis reactions from [Sc(AlMe4)3(Al2Me6)0.5] and KCp* (Cp* = C5Me5). 45Sc NMR spectroscopy was applied as a significant probe to evidence the existence of [ScMe3]n. Compounds [(Me3TACN)ScMe3] (+624.6 ppm) and [ScMe3(thf)x] (+601.7 ppm) gave large 45Sc NMR shifts, revealing the strong deshielding effect of the σ-bonded alkyl ligands on the scandium nuclei. Ultimately, cationized [Sc(AlMe4)3(Al2Me6)0.5] was employed in isoprene polymerization, leading to polymers in high yields (>95%) and with high (>90%) cis-1,4-polyisoprene content.
