Transition metal complexes carbonylation

Liicke et al. have prepared other phosphinated POSS compounds Tg[(CH2)2-PMe2]8 and Tg[(CH2)3-PMe2]8 by treating T8[CH = CH2]8 or T8[CH2-CH = CH2]8 with H-PMe2 under UV irradiation. The former compound has shown to have good coordination properties to carbonyl transition metal complexes such as CpMn(CO)3 (Table 15).

Optically active organometallic compounds in which the transition metal is the center of chirality have been known since 1969, when the first manganese compounds were reported1. In the meantime cyclopentadienyl and carbonyl transition metal complexes with 4, 5 and 6 ligands have been obtained in optically active form for the following types of compounds (Scheme 1) ... 

A large fraction of the binuclear mixed chalcogen/carbonyl transition metal complexes of iron and manganese contain the M2E (CO)6 core with the butterfly-type structure (n = 2) or substructure (n — 3, see Section 1.10.3). As an example of a complex with thiolate ligands, the structure of [Fe2(SC3H7)2(CO)6] is shown in... 

The answers to these questions and other questions about the cyanide and carbonyl transition-metal complexes can be derived from the idea that the cyanide and carbonyl groups form double bonds with the transition metal atom. 

Tertiary stibines have been widely employed as ligands in a variety of transition metal complexes (99), and they appear to have numerous uses in synthetic organic chemistry (66), eg, for the olefination of carbonyl compounds (100). They have also been used for the formation of semiconductors by the metal—organic chemical vapor deposition process (101), as catalysts or cocatalysts for a number of polymerization reactions (102), as ingredients of light-sensitive substances (103), and for many other industrial purposes. 

Carbon monoxide [630-08-0] (qv), CO, the most important 7T-acceptor ligand, forms a host of neutral, anionic, and cationic transition-metal complexes. There is at least one known type of carbonyl derivative for every transition metal, as well as evidence supporting the existence of the carbonyls of some lanthanides (qv) and actinides (1) (see AcTINIDES AND THANSACTINIDES COORDINATION COMPOUNDS). 

There are only a few weU-documented examples of catalysis by metal clusters, and not many are to be expected as most metal clusters are fragile and fragment to give metal complexes or aggregate to give metal under reaction conditions (39). However, the metal carbonyl clusters are conceptually important because they form a bridge between catalysts commonly used in solution, ie, transition-metal complexes with single metal atoms, and catalysts commonly used on surfaces, ie, small metal particles or clusters.

Two commonly used synthetic methodologies for the synthesis of transition metal complexes with substituted cyclopentadienyl ligands are important. One is based on the functionalization at the ring periphery of Cp or Cp metal complexes and the other consists of the classical reaction of a suitable substituted cyclopentadienyl anion equivalent and a transition metal halide or carbonyl complex. However, a third strategy of creating a specifically substituted cyclopentadienyl ligand from smaller carbon units such as alkylidynes and alkynes within the coordination sphere is emerging and will probably find wider application [22].

The lobes of electron density outside the C-O vector thus offer cr-donor lone-pair character. Surprisingly, carbon monoxide does not form particularly stable complexes with BF3 or with main group metals such as potassium or magnesium. Yet transition-metal complexes with carbon monoxide are known by the thousand. In all cases, the CO ligands are bound to the metal through the carbon atom and the complexes are called carbonyls. Furthermore, the metals occur most usually in low formal oxidation states. Dewar, Chatt and Duncanson have described a bonding scheme for the metal - CO interaction that successfully accounts for the formation and properties of these transition-metal carbonyls. 

Few quantitative data are available on the relative nucleophilicities of L toward various alkyl carbonyls. The rates of the reaction of CpMo(CO)3Me with L in toluene (Table II) decrease as a function of the latter reactant P( -Bu)3 > P( -OBu)j > PPhj > P(OPh)j, but the spread is relatively small (<8). The above order is that customarily observed for 8 2 reactions of low-valent transition metal complexes (J, 214). Interestingly, neither CpMo(CO)3Me nor CpFe(CO)2Me reacts with 1 or N, S, and As donor ligands 28, 79). This is in direct contrast to the insertion reactions of MeMn(CO)5 which manifest much less selectivity toward various L (see Section VI,B,C,D for details).

Besides dissociation of ligands, photoexcitation of transition metal complexes can facilitate (1) - oxidative addition to metal atoms of C-C, C-H, H-H, C-Hal, H-Si, C-0 and C-P moieties (2) - reductive elimination reactions, forming C-C, C-H, H-H, C-Hal, Hal-Hal and H-Hal moieties (3) - various rearrangements of atoms and chemical bonds in the coordination sphere of metal atoms, such as migratory insertion to C=C bonds, carbonyl and carbenes, ot- and P-elimination, a- and P-cleavage of C-C bonds, coupling of various moieties and bonds, isomerizations, etc. (see [11, 12] and refs, therein). 

Transition metals have been used to trap and stabilize many different types of reactive intermediates, such as carbenes. Reactive silicon intermediates have only recently yielded to this approach. In the case of alkenes, for instance, transition metal complexes are generally made by exposing the alkene to a transition metal bearing suitable leaving groups (e.g., carbonyl). Unlike carbon-based intermediates, however, silicon-based analogs have been very difficult to prepare until recently. Unless... 

To date, most of the photochemical data available for transition metal complexes comes from condensed phase studies (1). Recently, the primary photochemistry of a few model transition metal carbonyl complexes has been investigated in gas phase (5.). Studies to date indicate that there are many differences between the reactivity of organometallic species in gas phase (5.6) as conq>ared with matrix (7-10) or solution (11-17) environments. In most cases studied, photoexcitation of isolated transition metal...

When propylene chemisorbs to form this symmetric allylic species, the double-bond frequency occurs at 1545 cm-1, a value 107 cm-1 lower than that found for gaseous propylene hence, by the usual criteria, the propylene is 7r-bonded to the surface. For such a surface ir-allyl there should be gross similarities to known ir-allyl complexes of transition metals. Data for allyl complexes of manganese carbonyls (SI) show that for the cr-allyl species the double-bond frequency occurs at about 1620 cm-1 formation of the x-allyl species causes a much larger double-bond frequency shift to 1505 cm-1. The shift observed for adsorbed propylene is far too large to involve a simple o--complex, but is somewhat less than that observed for transition metal r-allyls. Since simple -complexes show a correlation of bond strength to double-bond frequency shift, it seems reasonable to suppose that the smaller shift observed for surface x-allyls implies a weaker bonding than that found for transition metal complexes.

The product distribution observed in the dimerization of polyene-substituted ketyl radicals is also remarkable in that only products involving dimerization at the carbonyl carbon atom are observed (equation 23)82,83. This finding is quite independent of the reducing agent, since ketyl radicals formed by reduction with low-valent transition metal complexes behave analogously84-86. 

A kinetically stabilized diarylgermylene, Tb(Tip)Ge, is also stable in hexane solution with no tendency to dimerize. The structure has not yet been measured but it was characterized as the base-free mononuclear transition metal complex formed with the reactive M(CO)s. THF adduct (M = Mo,W). The crystal structure of the W complex466 shows Ge=W = 259.3 pm, Ge-Tb = 198.8 pm, Ge-Tip = 199.9 pm, CGeC = 108.4°, TbGeW = 138.9° and TipGeW = 112.2°. Thus the Ge is pyramidal and the structure is obviously the result of a balance of steric repulsions between the carbonyls, Tb, and Tip. Older work on similar Ge=W compounds, RR,Ge=W(CO)5 with RR = Cp (Cl) or (Bsi)2467, show Ge=W lengths of 251.1 and 263.2 pm, respectively, indicating the combined steric and electronic effects.
