Imine complex

Like mthenium, amines coordinated to osmium in higher oxidation states such as Os(IV) ate readily deprotonated, as in [Os(en) (NHCH2CH2NH2)] [111614-75-6], This complex is subject to oxidative dehydrogenation to form an imine complex (105). An unusual Os(IV) hydride, [OsH2(en)2] [57345-94-5] has been isolated and characterized. The complexes of aromatic heterocycHc amines such as pyridine, bipytidine, phenanthroline, and terpyridine ate similar to those of mthenium. Examples include [Os(bipy )3 [23648-06-8], [Os(bipy)2acac] [47691-08-7],... 

Palladium complexes also catalyze the carbonylation of halides. Aryl (see 13-13), vinylic, benzylic, and allylic halides (especially iodides) can be converted to carboxylic esters with CO, an alcohol or alkoxide, and a palladium complex. Similar reactivity was reported with vinyl triflates. Use of an amine instead of the alcohol or alkoxide leads to an amide. Reaction with an amine, AJBN, CO, and a tetraalkyltin catalyst also leads to an amide. Similar reaction with an alcohol, under Xe irradiation, leads to the ester. Benzylic and allylic halides were converted to carboxylic acids electrocatalytically, with CO and a cobalt imine complex. Vinylic halides were similarly converted with CO and nickel cyanide, under phase-transfer conditions. ... 

Dirheniumheptoxide 2154 is converted by TCS 14, in the presence of 2,2 -dipyri-dine, into the dipyridine complex 2160 [77]. Free ReCls, NbCls, and WCI5 react with HMDSO 7 and 2,2 -bipyridine to form bipyridine oxochloride complexes 2161 and TCS 14, with reversal of the hitherto described reactions of metal oxides with TCS 14. The analogous Mo complex 2162 undergoes silylahon-amination by N-trimethylsilyl-tert-butylamine 2163 to give the bis-imine complex 2164 and HMDSO 7 [77] (Scheme 13.22).

Imines, either acyclic or macrocyclic but invariably multidentate, have a rich coordination chemistry that has been investigated at length. The 7r-accepting ability of imine donors results in the stabilization of lower oxidation states relative to their saturated amine analogs, and there exist many air-stable divalent imine complexes of Co, in contrast to amine relatives. The hexa-methyl-diene (52) has been the most intensively studied ligand of this class, particularly when complexed with Co. In addition, Co complexes of the dimethyl (53),295,296 tetramethyl (54),297 pentamethyl (55)298 and octamethyl (56)299 macrocyclic dienes are also known. In the presence of... 

The complex [Co(NH3)5(OS02CF3)]2+ undergoes triflate substitution by cyanate and condensation with acetone to form the unusual bis-bidentate imine complex (213)917 in a reaction reminiscent of the classic Curtis condensation of acetone with ethylenediamine. Apart from the novelty of the synthesis, the reported crystal structure was only the second of a CoN6 complex bearing a cyanate ligand.

Cyclopropane ring cleavage is also observed in the case of zirconocene 2-alkene and j 2-imine complexes with adjacent cyclopropane rings to give t/3-allyl, /3-azaallyl, and t/ -enamine complexes [29]. 

The production of highly isotactic PPs with Zr- and Hf-FI catalysts//-Bu3Al/ Ph3CB(C6F5)4 (phenoxy-amine complexes site-controlled polymerization with 1,2-insertion) is in sharp contrast to that of highly syndiotactic PPs with Ti-FI cata-lysts/MAO (phenoxy-imine complexes chain-end controlled polymerization with 2,1-insertion), which will be described later [64]. 

Beyond palladium, it has recently been shown that isoelectronic metal complexes based on nickel and platinum are active catalysts for diyne reductive cyclization. While the stoichiometric reaction of nickel(O) complexes with non-conjugated diynes represents a robust area of research,8 only one example of nickel-catalyzed diyne reductive cyclization, which involves the hydrosilylative cyclization of 1,7-diynes to afford 1,2-dialkylidenecyclohexanes appears in the literature.7 The reductive cyclization of unsubstituted 1,7-diyne 53a illustrates the ability of this catalyst system to deliver cyclic Z-vinylsilanes in good yield with excellent control of alkene geometry. Cationic platinum catalysts, generated in situ from (phen)Pt(Me)2 and B(C6F5)3, are also excellent catalysts for highly Z-selective reductive cyclization of 1,6-diynes, as demonstrated by the cyclization of 1,6-diyne 54a.72 The related platinum bis(imine) complex [PhN=C(Me)C(Me)N=Ph]2Pt(Me)2 also catalyzes diyne hydrosilylation-cyclization (Scheme 35).72a... 

Isonitrile insertion into zirconacycles to afford iminoacyl complexes 28 is fast, but rearrangement to q2-imine complexes 30 is slow. In the case of tBuNC, the rearrangement does not occur. Amines 32 are formed on protonolysis of the q2-imine complex. The q2-imine complexes 30 readily undergo insertion of Ti-components (alkenes, alkynes, ketones, aldehydes, imines, isocyanates) to provide a wide variety of products 37 via zirconacycles 36. The overall sequence gives a nice demonstration of how a number of compo-... 

Recently, intermolecular hydrophosphination of alkynes was also reported with ytterbium-imine complex catalyst precursors [20]. Aromatic alkynes react at room temperature to afford ( )-isomers, while aliphatic ones require heating at 80 °C and, quite surprisingly, (Z)-isomers (trans-addition products) are formed preferentially (Table 4). In this respect the ytterbium-catalyzed reactions are different from the radical process, in which the ( )-isomer formed initially isomerizes to the (Z)-isomer. 

A mechanism that involves ytterbium phosphide species has been proposed, similarly to the foregoing intramolecular hydrophosphination. Generation of the phosphide species is supported by the formation of Ph2CDNHPh (after aqueous quench) upon treatment of the imine complex with Ph2PD (Scheme 15). Lanthanide phosphide is known to react with THF, forming a 4-diphenylphosphino-l-butoxyl species [21], which was indeed found as a side product in the catalytic hydrophosphination of disubstituted aliphatic alkynes run in THF, supporting further the ytterbium-phosphide intermediate (Scheme 16). 

Compound 79 reacts with 0(CH2)4 and NCMe in the presence of CFsSOsMe, like the iron complex 11 and the molybdenum and tungsten complexes 45 and 46, to give zwitterionic compounds [2-NO-2-PEt3-7-L-c/ow-2,l-CoCBioHio] [L = 0(CH2)4 (83), NCMe (84)]. Interestingly, the acetonitrile reaction gave in addition to 84 small amounts of the imine complex [7- N(Me) = C(H)Me -2-NO-2-PEt3-c/oio-2,l-CoCBioHio] (85), a product related to the iron and nickel compounds 34 and 78, respectively. The latter pair were the only products when 11 and 75, respectively, were... 

Alternatively, the rhodium dimer 30 may be cleaved by an amine nucleophile to give 34. Since amine-rhodium complexes are known to be stable, this interaction may sequester the catalyst from the productive catalytic cycle. Amine-rhodium complexes are also known to undergo a-oxidation to give hydridorhodium imine complexes 35, which may also be a source of catalyst poisoning. However, in the presence of protic and halide additives, the amine-rhodium complex 34 could react to give the dihalorhodate complex 36. This could occur by associative nucleophilic displacement of the amine by a halide anion. Dihalorhodate 36 could then reform the dimeric complex 30 by reaction with another rhodium monomer, or go on to react directly with another substrate molecule with loss of one of the halide ligands. It is important to note that the dihalorhodate 36 may become a new resting state for the catalyst under these conditions, in addition to or in place of the dimeric complex. 

Thiabutadienes undergo highly enantioselective hDA reactions in the presence of homochiral bis(oxazoline) and bis(imine) complexes with Cu and Ni (Scheme 37) <99CC1001>. Homochiral camphor-based thiabutadienes show good exo selectivity and give rise to bomene ring-fused dihydrothiopyrans (Scheme 38) <99TL8383>. 

Low-valent niobium and tantalum react with imines to give the corresponding imine-niobium or -tantalum complexes. Some of these are isolated, and structures of the complexes are confirmed by X-ray analyses. These imine complexes react with aldehydes to give /3-hydroxyamines in good to excellent yields (Equation...

Jin and co-workers applied the self-immobilization method developed by Alt to group 4 bis(phenoxy-imine) complexes. They demonstrated that Ti and Zr bis(phenoxy-imine) complexes with allyl-substituted phenoxy-imine ligands upon activation with MAO showed high ethylene-polymerization activity and form good morphology PEs. The same research group also demonstrated that this self-immobilization method was applicable to...
