Alkoxides metal complexes

Because the three sol-gel methods (alkoxide, metal complex, and Pechini) are so closely related, it is relatively easy to combine them to generate novel synthesis routes. For example, several authors describe the mixture of metal complex solutions with the alkoxide tetraethyl orthosiUcate to synthesize Li2FeSi04 [19,20]. Table 36.2 is a survey of recent reports of LIB materials synthesized by sol-gel routes. Table 36.2 is organized by foiu- basic characteristics of each report the composition of the final insertion material, the type of complexing agent used... 

The advantages of titanium complexes over other metallic complexes is high selectivity, which can be readily adjusted by proper selection of ligands. Moreover, they are relative iaert to redox processes.

Before discussing the preparation of late transition metal complexes resulting from the activation of O-H bonds by late transition metal complexes, we wbl describe metathesis methods for the preparation of hydrido(hydroxo), hydrido(alkoxo), and hydrido(carboxylato) complexes. Though many methods of preparation of transition metal hydroxides, alkoxides, etc. by a metathesis reaction have been reported [1], only a limited number of examples of the preparation of hydrido(hydroxo), hydri-do(alkoxo) complexes etc. by metathesis are available. 

R.R. Schrock, M.I.T. Have you or anyone else prepared platinum(IV) metallacyclobutane complexes with alkoxide ligands in place of chlorides One might expect the alkoxide complexes to behave considerably differently than the chloro complexes, perhaps like early transition metal complexes. 

For 1,2-disubstituted epoxides, the regiochemical outcome of nucleophilic attack becomes less predictable. However, in the case of epoxy ethers chelation control can be used to deliver the nucleophile preferentially to the epoxide carbon away from the ether moiety. Thus, treatment of epoxy ether 61 with an imido(halo)metal complex, such as [Cr(N-t-Bu)Cl3(dme)], leads to the clean and high-yielding production of the chlorohydrin 64. The regioselectivity is rationalized in terms of initial formation of a chelated species (62), followed by attack at C-3 to form the more stable 5-membered metallacyclic alkoxide 63 <00SL677>. 

Access to heavier alkali metal complexes may also be achieved by metathesis between a lithium organophosphide and a heavier alkali metal alkoxide (27) ... 

The low affinity of the alkali metals for neutral P-donor ligands has hampered efforts to synthesize complexes in which there is a genuine R3P-M interaction (see Section I). However, this poor affinity may be overcome by incorporating a remote phosphine functionality into a potentially chelating anionic ligand, such as a phosphine-substituted alkoxide, amide, or aryl, and several alkali metal complexes of such ligands have been isolated. 

The most common catalysts for the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction and Oppenauer oxidation are Alm and Lnm isopropoxides, often in combination with 2-propanol as hydride donor and solvent. These alkoxide ligands are readily exchanged under formation of 2-propanol and the metal complexes of the substrate (Scheme 20.5). Therefore, the catalytic species is in fact a mixture of metal alkoxides.

In the first structurally characterized complexes of type A the metal-phosphorus triple bonds are kinetically stabilized by bulky substituents at the amido ligands. Therefore, these compounds reveal exclusively end-on reactivity via the phosphorus lone pair. This reactivity pattern seems also valid for the solution stable alkoxide derivative [(C/0)3Mo=P], for which the reaction potential is under investigation [13]. In contrast, due to their lesser degree of kinetic stabilization by bulky substituents the short-lived alkoxide containing complexes [(R 0)3W=Pj (R =t-Bu (3c), Ph (3d)), generated by the metathesis reaction between the alkoxide-dimer and the phosphaalkyne (cf. Eq. 8), show additionally a high side-on reactivity towards the phos-phaalkynes of the reaction mixture. Thus, there occurs a formal cycloaddition reaction with the phosphaalkynes, and a subsequent 1,3-OR shift yields the formation of four-membered diphospha-metallo-cyclobutane derivatives 6(Eq. 8) [15,31, 37].
