Welcome Address

A very warm welcome is expressed to all participants of the XIth International Seminar

for Ph. D. Students on Organometallic and Coordination Chemistry in Sayda. The

topic of the seminar covers all modern aspects in organometallic and metal-organic

chemistry including main-group elements.

We are very pleased to announce two plenary, seven invited, and fifty-four short

lectures, summarizing the most actual knowledge in different areas of transition metal

and main-group element chemistry in all kinds of systems, including both, theoretical

and experimental aspects. We hope that this platform will lead to fruitful and manifold

discussions and bring the different experts together in a warm and relaxed way. An

open exchange of ideas should be encouraged by all who attend this symposium.

The size of this meeting with ca. 90 attending scientists should allow to interact

between different disciplines, to promote creative collaborative studies, and of course

to stimulate further research topics in new areas in a interdisciplinary way.

We wish all participants of this meeting a very nice and pleasant stay in Sayda, in the

heart of the Erzgebirge.

Modern approaches to the study of “mixed-valence” compounds

Paul J. Low

Department of Chemistry, Durham University, South Rd, Durham, DH1 3LE, UK.

Metal complexes of general form [{M}{ -bridge}{M}]. with open shell electronic structures

are the subject of a considerable degree of historical and contemporary interest. In the case of

systems where the unpaired electron can be attributed to a metal centre, the concepts of mixed

valency can be invoked, and analysis of the associated Intervalence Charge Transfer transition

in terms of the coupling between the metal centres using methods developed by Noel Hush

(and others) is appropriate.

However, as the metal, ancillary ligand and / or bridging ligand orbitals mix, the concept and

applicability of “metal centred valency” becomes increasingly inappropriate and new

treatments and descriptions of the underlying electronic structure are necessary. Equally, in

cases where redox-active or “non-innocent” ligands are present, electrochemical and

spectroscopic data must be carefully analysed to ensure accurate descriptions and analyses are

employed.

In this presentation the use of spectroscopic and computational methods in the

characterisation of radical cations [{Cp*(dppe)Ru}{ -bridge}{Ru(dppe)Cp}]+ will be

described. Through variation in the nature of the bridging moiety it is possible construct

systems that behave as pseudo-classical mixed valence systems (illustrated below for a

diethynyl carboranyl bridged system), offer highly delocalised electronic structures or

bridging-ligand centred radical character.

Half-sandwich metallocarbonyl -N-imidato complexes in

bioorganometallic chemistry

Janusz Zakrzewski,

Department of Chemistry, University of Lodz, 90-136 Lodz, Narutowicza 68, Poland

[email protected]

The aim of the lecture is to present synthesis of CpM(CO)x ( -N-imidato) complexes ( M =

Fe, Mo, W; n = 2 or 3), their electronic structure and reactivity toward various biomolecules.

These complexes have been used as IR-detectable labeling reagents for proteins. To increase

the sensitivity of the detection, metallocarbonyl dendrimers have been synthesized and

coupled e.g. with anti-analyte antibodies. Some of the title complexes display enzyme-

inhibiting activity (e.g. toward GST, papain).

Results presented in the lecture have been obtained, in large part, in collaboration with the

Prof. Jaouen’s team (ENSCP, Paris).

Metal complexes and organometallic compounds as precursors for

electronic and ceramic materials. Old ligands, new tricks.

Piotr Sobota

Faculty of Chemistry, Wroc aw University, 14, F. Joliot-Curie, 50-383 Wroc aw, Poland

For the last two decades, there has been a growing interest in the development of the

chemistry of mixed-metal bi- and polynuclear oxo, alkoxo and alkoxo-organometallic

complexes. Such interest derives from their fascinating structural chemistry, interesting

catalytic properties, and high potential for industrial applications. High applicability of such

compounds is an effect of a cooperation of two different metals in a single molecule which

gives rise to properties that are not a simple sum of the properties of the individual metals and

is often crucial for a system to achieve a desired activity. The classical example would be the

cooperation of titanium and aluminum in an olefin polymerization catalyst. Instead, well-

defined group 2 heterobimetallic alkoxo complexes are known as very efficient single-source

precursors (SSP) for the fabrication of highly pure oxide-ceramic materials. These are crucial

for today’s technology and are utilized for the production of superconductors, microelectronic

circuits, sensors, and ferroelectric materials. In our research group we have synthesized

several structurally interesting heterobimetallic alkoxo-organometallic complexes containing

main group and transition metals.1 The lecture will highlight the synthesis of a mixed-metal

alkoxo-organometallic complexes, an excellent single-source precursors for oxide materials.

Hydroxycarbenes in Catalysis – Platina-β-diketones as Model Complexes

Dirk Steinborn, Michael Werner, Sebastian Schwieger Institut für Chemie – Anorganische Chemie, Martin-Luther-Universität Halle-Wittenberg

Kurt-Mothes-Straße 2, 06120 Halle, Germany Beginning with an overview on hydroxycar-bene–metal complexes as intermediates in homo-geneously catalyzed processes, the electronicallyunsaturated (16 ve) platina-β-diketones 1, hy-droxycarbene complexes that are stabilized by intramolecular O–H···O hydrogen bonds to neighbored acetyl ligands (Scheme 1), will be presented. Analogously, organic β-diketones 2 are considered as enols stabilized by intramolecular O–H···O hydrogen bonds to keto groups. The strengths of the hydrogen bonds in type 1 complexes have been calculated to be up to twice as strong as those in acetylacetone.

Due to the electronic unsaturation, the platina-β-diketones 1 were found to readily un-dergo oxidative addition reactions with a wide variety of mono- and bidentate N, O, S and P donors L2/L L yielding diacetylhydridoplatinum(IV) complexes 3 (Scheme 2). Depending on the type of ligand L2/L L and the reaction conditions, these complexes can react in a C–H or H–X reductive elimination reaction yielding acetyl platinum(II) complexes 4a and 4b, respectively. Finally, the usage of platina-β-diketones 1 as precatalysts in hydrosilylation of olefins and acetylenes will be discussed.

It seems that the stabilization of platina-β-diketones by O–H···O bridges to acyl ligands is perfectly balanced: On the one hand, they are stable enough to be handled without difficulties but, on the other hand, they are reactive enough to undergo a manifold of interest-ing, unexpected and entirely new reactions. Thus, further insight is achieved into elementary steps where hydroxycarbenes are involved which is of interest both for organometallic chem-istry and for homogeneous catalysis.

Bioinspired oxidation reactions with highly preorganized

dicopper complexes

Franc Meyer

Institut für Anorganische Chemie, Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Tammannstrasse 4,

D-37077 Göttingen, Germany

Numerous enzymes take advantage of the cooperative action of two proximate metal ions

within their active site, in particular for multielectron redox transformations (e.g., for the

activation of O2 at dicopper sites and subsequent oxygenation and oxidation chemistry).

These natural systems represent a guiding line for novel bioinspired catalysts.[1] We have

prepared a series of highly preorganized bimetallic complexes based on compartmental

pyrazolate ligands, in which molecular parameters such as the metal-metal separation can be

Inorganometallics and catalysis

Bogdan Marciniec

Department of Organometallic Chemistry, Faculty of Chemistry,

Adam Mickiewicz University, Grunwaldzka 6, 60-780 Poznań, Poland

Numerous reactions of organic compounds catalyzed by TM complexes developed in

the last half century occur via active intermediates involving metal-carbon bonds i.e.

organometallics. Per analogy, organic derivatives of a heteroatom such as silicon, boron,

germanium and other p-block elements (E) in the presence of TM complexes undergo

transformations via respective intermediates containing metal-heteroatom (TM−E) bond

called inorganometallics [1, 2]. In these transformations these complexes are actual catalysts

and E does not play role of ancillary ligands but undergoes transformation to get products

(E−C, E−E, E−E’, where E = Si, Ge, B, Sn..).

The aim of the lecture is to present exemplary reactions occurring in the presence of

TM (M=Ru, Rh, Ir, Pd) complexes containing or generating TM−H or TM−E bonds, such as

hydrometallations and bismetallations and particularly trans-metallations. The latter reactions

based on catalytic activation of sp2 and sp-carbon-hydrogen bonds as well as O−H bond of

alcohols and silanols with vinylmetalloids (CH2=CH−E) can be summarized as follows [3]:

+ E' H RnE +

E = Si, B, Ge; E' H = C H, C H , C OH , Si OH

ER'n [TM]E'

H, [TM] E

A notable peculiarity of these processes is that they open as a new universal route for

synthesis of well-defined molecular and macromolecular compounds with E−E’ functionality.

Coordination Chemistry of Divalent Carbon(0) Compounds – Theoretical Results and

Experimental Challenge

Gernot Frenking

Fachbereich Chemie, Philipps-Universität, Hans-Meerwein-Strasse, D-35043 Marburg,

Germany

The topic of the lecture are theoretical studies of coordination compounds with divalent

carbon(0) ligands which have the general formula CL2 where L is a electron donor. The

chemical bond between the ligand L and carbon is a L C donor-acceptor bond which means

that the carbon atom in CL2 carries two electron lone pairs. This makes divalent carbon(0)

compounds exceptionally strong donors. Experimentally known examples for CL2 are

carbodiphosphoranes1 C(PR3)2 which have already been synthesized in 1963.2 A theoretically

predicted new class of divalent carbon(0) compounds are carbodicarbenes C(NHC)2 (1) where

NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene.3 The latter compounds are related to tetraaminoallenes 2 (R =

NX2).4 The calculations predict that divalent carbon(0) compounds serve as strong Lewis

bases which yield main-group and transition metal complexes that possess promising

chemical properties which should be investigated with experimental methods.

Enantioselective allylic substitution [1] has become a widely accepted testing tool used for

assessing the catalytic performance of chiral ligands. It also represents a powerful synthetic

method that allows stereoselective construction of new C–C bonds in functionalised

molecules.

A number of chiral ferrocene donors have been studied in this reaction with varying

success [2]. This contribution will deal with the preparation of two classes of novel chiral

ferrocene donors combining different coordination sites – chiral phosphinoalkenes [3] and

chiral phosphinoamides [4], and their utilisation in palladium-catalysed allylic alkylation.

Particular attention will be paid to investigations aimed at understanding the mechanism of

chiral information transfer from the ligand to the formed product.

Y,C,Y chelating, well known as pincer, ligands represent an extremely useful platform for

coordination chemistry of both transition and main group elements. These ligands can be

quite easily tuned at specific positions of their skeletons and it has usually pronounced

influence on chemical behavior of synthesized complexes especially central metals.

Pincer type complexes of heavier pnictogens (Sb, Bi) have become targets of scientific

The selective synthesis of metal oxide based materials with defined particle size is of

current interest within application-orientated research projects. Special focus is given to the

synthesis of nanoparticles. An important step on the way to prepare materials based on nano-

particular metal oxides is the control of the nucleation process. Polynuclear metal oxo clusters

may serve as model compounds for a better understanding of this process. In contrast to

transition metal oxo clusters few examples of structuraly characterized, main group metal oxo

clusters of high nuclearity, are known.

In line with our research on bismuth oxo compounds several intermediates in the course of

hydrolysis of monomeric precursors, for example bismuth silanolates, were isolated and

structurally characterized. The metal oxo clusters [Bi9O7(OSiMe3)13], [Bi18O18[OSiMe3)18]

and [Bi22O26(OSiMe2tBu)14] are representatives among these compounds [1-4]. The

characterization of structuraly related compounds contributes to the fundamental

understanding of the formation process and the assembly principles of bismuth oxido

particles. Here we present structural relationships between several bismuth oxo clusters.

Water-soluble Platinum Clusters: Syntheses and Catalytic Activity

Mareike Meyera, Wolfgang Kläui*,a

aHeinrich-Heine-Universität, Universitätsstr. 1, 40225 Düsseldorf, Germany

Metal clusters of only a few nanometers in diameter can be considered to fill the gap from

binuclear metal complexes to the metallic state. Therefore they are of major interest in

catalytic research.

We succeeded in synthesizing water soluble platinum clusters of 2 – 4 nm in size by

reduction of an aqueous solution of K2PtCl4 with hydrogen gas in the presence of the

stabilizing ligand 2-diphenylphosphanoethyldisodiumphosphonate [1]. Furthermore, we are

able to define dimensions and size distribution of the emerging clusters by varying the

conditions during synthesis.

The obtained clusters are stable when exposed to air and can be stored in solution over

months without coagulation. All clusters are efficient catalysts in the hydrogenation of

olefins. The catalytic activity is size-dependent; decreasing the main diameter increases the

activity. Due to their excellent water-solubility our platinum clusters are most promising

catalysts especially in “Green Chemistry”.

Ruthenium thin films are of significant interest as promising candidates for

microelectronic applications like microelectrodes or microelectric contacts and thin films or

nanoparticles of iron at oxidic surfaces are of specific interest as catalysts for carbon nanotube

(CNT) formation. We investigate [(arene)(diene)M] derivatives systematically with M = Ru

and Fe as MOCVD (Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) precursors, which combine a

good vapor pressure with thermal decomposition temperatures below 200 °C and a well

controllable follow-up chemistry of the released ligands after the MOCVD process.[1]

[(Benzene)(1,3-cyclohexadiene)Ru] was investigated as a designed MOCVD precursor

where the inherent structural and chemical features of the ligands help the formation of pure

ruthenium films.[2] Main focus was spent to evaluate such process parameters, which grant

the purity of the deposited ruthenium films without the help of a reactive gas component.

[(1,3-Butadiene)(toluene)Fe] and a fluidized bed reactor were identified as an ideal

combination for the MOCVD of Fe nanoparticles (Fe-NP) or Fe thin films on oxidic powders

of different kind.[3] Several Fe coated powders were used successfully as heterogeneous

metal catalysts for a diameter controlled CNT preparation.

Element Organic Frameworks with high Permanent Porosity

Porous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs, [1]) have high potential for

applications in adsorption, separation, gas storage and heterogeneous catalysis. Their modular

concept was used to develop a new class of highly microporous materials (d < 2 nm) that

combine properties like high hydrophobicity, high stability against water and good thermal

stability. In the following, we report the integration of elements such as silicon and their use

as connectors. At the same time, organic linkers are used to tailor the pore size, resulting in

porous, highly hydrophobic and thermally stable element organic frameworks (EOFs) via an

organometallic route. The primary building block Tetrakis(4-bromophenyl)silane [2] was

lithiated fourfold by reaction with n-butyllithium under inert conditions. Subsequent reaction

with tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) at 263 K resulted in the formation of the porous network

poly(1,4-phenylene)silane (EOF-1). A biphenylene linker was used to obtain larger pores in

poly(4,4’-biphenylene)silane (EOF-2) on a one-step reaction. EOF-1 and EOF-2 are X-ray

amorphous. They show no decomposition in air, moisture or aqueous solutions and have good

thermal stability in air up to 673 K. Both compounds are highly porous with specific BET

surface areas of 780 m2g-1 (EOF-1) and 882 m2g-1 (EOF-2) as determined from the nitrogen

physisorption isotherms measured at 77 K. Water adsorption isotherms at 298 K show a high

hydrophobicity for both materials. Summarizing, we have presented a new approach for the

design of hydrophobic microporous frameworks with accessible pore systems using organo-

element chemistry. In our view, an extension of the concept in terms of elements used as

nodes and organic linkers as connectors will lead to valuable adsorbents and catalyst supports

with well defined porosity and functionality.

In the last decade, there has been tremendous interest in designing and synthesis of

functional solids based on metal-organic coordination networks. One of the most difficult

challenges in materials chemistry is to master synthesis of crystal networks with desired

topology and properties by appropriate choice of organic ligand (or organometallic

metalloligand) and metal precursor. The employment of various multitopic, conformationally

rigid and flexible ligands with different binding modes and strengths is very fruitful in the

construction of well-defined solid-state structures with expected physical and chemical

properties.

This report is focused on the construction of achiral and homochiral coordination

polymers combining homoleptic zinc alkyls, R2Zn, as connectors and different bipyridine-

type compounds as linkers. Various combinations of these subunits lead to zig-zag chains (I),

helices (II) and fabrics (III) with or without porous architecture.[1] The successful

construction of porous homochiral architectures was achieved by the employment of

alkylaluminum derivatives of cinchonine as metalloligands. The selected porous materials

demonstrated highly desirable properties of enantioseparation of racemic organic compounds

and gas sorption.

Surfaces that can react on external stimuli in a reversible manner ( so called smart

surfaces) are of big research interest. For this purpose we developed a modular synthetic

concept, using the sponanious self assembley of functional adhesive molecules which form

self assembled monolayers on Au(111) and HOPG. The adsorbing molecules are designed in

a molular way. The binding unit contains disc like thioetherfunctionalized phthalocyanines

and porphyrines. [1] The metall centre serves as “docking station for rod like assembley groups

containing spacer and terminal functional units. By this concept the functional units are lateral

separated and are able to fullfill their function without any disturbance by neighbour

molecules. A similar strategy was allready sucessfully used for tripodal bining groups[2] .

Planed and allready established functions are redoxactivity, photoisomerisation, complexation

of catalytic active metalls and immobilisation of oncogenic proteins.

Spectroscopic and thermal properties of lanthanides (III) complexes with

2,2’-biphenyldicarboxylic acid

Justyna Sienkiewicz*, Zofia Rz czy ska, Alina Kula

Department of General and Coordination Chemistry, Faculty of Chemistry, Maria Curie-

Sk odowska University, 20-031 Lublin, Poland

The complexes of Y(III) and lanthanides(III) from La to Lu with 2,2’-biphenyldicarboxylic acid

were obtained as hydrated precipitates with the metal:ligand ratio of 2:3 and the general formula of

Ln2(C12H8(COO-)2· n H2O, where n=3 for the first isostructural series from La to Er and n=6 for the

second series of Tm, Yb and Lu(III) complexes.

The complexes were characterized by FTIR and Raman spectroscopy. The characteristic of

carboxyl vibrations in the free diphenic acid are found at 1685 cm-1 as strong vibrations of the

protonated carboxylic group COOH and also strong bands at 1412 and 1578 cm-1 assigned to the

symmetric and asymmetric C-O stretching vibrations of the other deprotonated carboxylic group of

acid. During coordination of metal ions the bands of 1685 cm-1 disappear in the spectra of complexes

and symmetric and asymmetric bands of the COO- groups appear. In the spectra of Y and La to Er the

asymmetric vibration bands of COO- groups are present at 1532-1521 cm-1 and symmetric vibration

bands of COO- groups are at 1412-1402 cm-1. The (COO-) values for each complex of La-Er(III)

group are smaller than those of Tm-Lu complexes and suggest that carboxylic group in those

complexes posses different coordination modes. In a high energy region in the IR spectra there are the

bands in range 3700-3100 cm-1, which indicates absorption peaks due to O-H bonds of water

molecules. These bands are associated with hydrogen bonds formation and change their positions with

changing the hydrogen bond energy.

The curve of TG/DTG and DTA thermal analysis show that hydrated complexes of lanthanides

from La-Lu heated in air lose all water molecules in one step. Temperature of dehydration process for

trihydrated complexes is about 150oC, but for heksahydrated complexes is lower down 100oC. The

anhydrous compounds are stable up to about 350oC in air atmosphere and decompose on heating

directly to the oxides; Ln2O3, Tb4O10 and Pr6O11. The temperature of oxide formation is in the range of

600-750oC, excepting 400oC (for Ce complex).

The gas product analysis which is connected with decomposition process was carried out for

gadolinium(III) complex as the representative complex for all isostructural compounds of Y and La-Er

group complexes. These spectra confirm, that not deamination takes place.

Mesoporous molecular sieves with unique properties such large surface area, large void

volume and narrow pore size distribution represent modern supports for designing advanced

catalysts including catalysts for olefin metathesis [1]. New heterogeneous catalyst for ring

opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) has been prepared by immobilization of

[RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 on siliceous mesoporous molecular sieve SBA-15 (SBET = 915 m2/g,

V = 1.10 cm3/g, d = 6.3 nm). The catalyst of 1 % weight content of Ru, was prepared by

stirring of dried SBA-15 with [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 in CH2Cl2 at room temperature for 5 hours.

Activity of the catalyst was tested in ROMP of 2-norbornene in toluene (1).

nn (1)

After catalyst activation with trimethylsilyldiazomethane before reaction, high molecular

weight polynorbornene of Mw = (2.8–7.4)×105 in the yields up to 77 % were obtained (1 h,

60°C). The structure of polymer was proved by IR spectroscopy. Leaching of the immobilized

catalyst was not observed. Catalyst can be easily separated from reaction mixture in contrast

to the corresponding homogeneous system [2] and, therefore, polymeric product without

catalyst residues can be obtained.

biological properties. Therefore, it is of general synthetic interest to develop new

methodology that would enable to introduce perfluoroalkyl groups into various molecules

under mild reaction conditions. Recently, it was shown that one such option is ruthenium

catalysed cross-metathesis with perfluoroalkylated ethenes [1].

Currently, we are working on a related methodology that would allow the synthesis of

arenes, ferrocenes, saccharides and steroids, bearing perfluoroalkyl substituents. Our

procedure is based on the cross-metathesis of easily available 3-perfluoroalkylpropenes with

compounds having the terminal double bond. Effect of the substrate structure on cross-

metathesis selectivity and reactivity and other mechanistic features will be presented.

Methylalumoxanes (MAO) are one of the most studied classes of organoaluminium

compounds. This is due to their important role in catalytic systems used in olefin

polymerization.

Here we report the non-hydrolytic method of synthesis of methylalumoxane. The reactions

between aliphatic dicarboxylic acids (malonic, adipinic, succinic, itaconic) and

trimethylaluminium at various molar ratios were studied. According to a method developed in

our group new methylalumoxanes containing eight aluminium atoms per molecule have been

recently synthesized [1]. The activity of synthesized compounds was tested towards styrene

polymerization and compared to activity of commercially available methylalumoxane.

Methylalumoxanes obtained from itaconic and succinic acids have been used as

components improving properties of polyurethanes and in synthesis of polymer electrolytes.

The mechanical properties of prepared polyurethanes and properties of polymer electrolytes

will be discussed on the presentation.

Catalyst development for hydroformylation of long-chain olefins in sc CO2

Cezar Ionescu, Olaf Walter, Stephan Pitter, Eckhard Dinjus

ITC-CPV, Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe, D-76201 Karlsruhe, Germany.

The hydroformylation is one of the most important industrial applications of

homogeneous catalysis including for short chains olefins an effective catalyst recycling as

shown in the Rhone-Poulenc-Ruhr-Chemie process. For long chain olefins however still some

development for an effective catalyst recycling is needed.

One possibility offers the application of sc CO2 (low Tc and pc) as the solvent in

catalysis. Two different approaches for catalyst recycling are presented here (Scheme 1):

A) The application of the sc CO2 as solvent under homogeneous reaction conditions

with following separation of the catalyst by simple changing of p, T [1, 2].

B) The application of sc CO2 as solvent and mobile in supported ionic liquid phase

(SILP) and supported catalysis.

Scheme 1. Possible separation approach

The results of these different approaches will be presented including the physical

chemical background for the phase separation technology (A) as well as an evaluation of their

feasibility.

Orthopalladation reaction is an activation of the ortho-C-H bond in phenyl ring leading to the

formation of new Pd-C bond. Complexes of that type have reactive C-Pd bond and are

additionaly stabilized by coordination of the triarylphosphite ligands (Pd-P bond) to

palladium, what can present interesting reactivity in C-C bond forming processes. As a result

of the organometallation reaction two new palladacycle complexes with substituted

triarylphosphito ligands P(OR)3 (R = m-MeC6H4, o-MeC6H4) have been prepared. The

reactivity of the obtained complexes as well as their non-orthometallated analogues,

PdCl2[P(OR)3]2, has been tested in copper-free Sonogashira reaction.

[emim][SO4C2H5] ionic liquids has been chosen. The application of ionic liquids as reaction

media instead of organic solvents makes it possible to construct recyclable catalytic system

what also has been tested. The obtained palladium complexes show high activity in both ionic

liquids. The yield of diphenylacetylene depends on the kind of catalyst precursor and ranged

from 31 to 98%. The best results were obtained for PdCl2[P(O-m-MeC6H4)3]2 (84%) and for

orthopalladated dimer with the same phosphite (98%) in [bmim][PF6].

Allenylidene Complexes of Palladium.

Synthesis and Catalytic Properties

Florian Kessler, Helmut Fischer*

University of Konstanz, Universitätsstraße 10 , 78457, Konstanz, Germany

Chromium complexes containing a -donor substituted allenylidene ligand are readily

available in an easy to perform one-pot fashion. Reaction of (CO)5Cr[THF] with appropriate

deprotonated alkynes as the cumulenylidene precursor, followed by alkylation of the resulting

alkynylchromate with R3O[BF4] yields the corresponding allenylidene complexes in high

yields. The allenylidene ligands may be transferred from chromium to tungsten [1].

However, a transfer of the allenylidene ligands to catalytically active late transition metals

like palladium could not be realized. We now report on a direct straightforward route to

palladium allenylidene complexes starting from commercially available N,N-

dimethylpropiolamide as the C3-source, e.g.

New 1 -(Diphenylphosphanyl)ferrocencarboxamides Bearing

2-Hydroxyethyl Groups at the Amide Nitrogen

While studying the coordination and catalytic chemistry of ferrocene phosphinocarboxylic

ligands [1], we turned also to the corresponding phosphinoamide derivatives [2]. As a

contiuation of our work, we decided to prepare two new phosphinoferrocenyl amides bearing

2-hydroxyethyl chains at the amide nitrogen and to study their coordination and catalytic

properties.

Carboxamides 1 and 2 have been synthesized by amidation of 1´-(diphenylphosphino)-

ferrocenecarboxylic acid (Hdpf) [1,3]. Due to polar nature of 1 and 2 and the possibility of

forming hydrogen bonds, these ligands may exert good solubilities in polar reaction media

and also serve as usefull synthons for supramolecular coordination chemistry. Hence,

palladium complexes [PdCl2L2] (3, L = 1; 4, L = 2) were also syntesized. As revealed by X-

Ray diffraction studies, the ligands and their complexes associate in the solid state by means

of hydrogen bonds, forming supramolecular arrays the complexity of which ranges from one-

dimensional chains to complicated three-dimensional networks. The palladium komplexes 3

and 4 were succesfully tested in Pd-catalyzed Suzuki reaction in polar solvents.

Faculty of Chemistry, University of Wroclaw, 14 F.Joliot-Curie, 50-383 Wroclaw, Poland

Suzuki - Miyaura reaction is a very important way of biaryl compounds synthesis used as

non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, anti-pain drugs and pesticides. Palladium complexes

with N – heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have found many

applications in C-C cross-coupling reactions. Three new carbene

complexes of palladium Pd(moktim-y)2Cl2, Pd(miop-y)2Cl2 and

Pd(bmim-y)2Br2 were obtained and used as catalyst precursors

in the model Suzuki- Miyaura reaction of 2–bromotoluene and

phenylboronic acid. The reaction product, 2-methylbiphenyl,

may be used in the food industry.

The aim of our research was to check the activity of palladium complexes in the Suzuki

reaction in ecological solvent like water or ethylene glycol. We found that carbene complexes

Pd(bmim-y)2Br2, Pd(moktim-y)2Cl2, Pd(miop-y)2Cl2 are good catalyst precursors of the

Suzuki- Miyaura reaction. We received 50% yield of product in water and 90% - 97% yield in

ethylene glycol. During the reaction Pd(0) nanoparticles were formed in situ and isolated from

the reaction mixture after immobilization on Al2O3. It was found that Pd(0) is catalytically

active and the reaction yield depends on the size of nanoparticles.

Phosphinoferrocene Amides Derived from Glycine – Synthesis,

Coordination Properties, and Catalytic Utilization

For quite a long time, our group has focused on the chemistry of ferrocene-based

phosphanylcarboxylic acids and their derivatives [1]. In recent years we have studied mainly

phosphinoferrocene amides that combine central and planar chirality (e.g., 1 3) [2,3]. Donors

of this type are not only versatile ligands but also proved to be useful catalyst components for

both enantioselective and achiral metal-mediated organic transformations.

With this contribution, we report on the preparation of the first ‘conjugates’ of a carboxy-

phosphinoferrocene unit with an amino acid, viz. compounds 4. Coordination ability of these

new ligands has been probed in Pd(II) complexes and their catalytic properties were tested in

Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction.

Gold nanoparticles are already being used in a range of applications [1] and it is

particularly exciting its use in catalysis.

During 1980s, Haruta [2] found that small gold particles supported on different oxides can be

used to oxidize CO at less than 0 °C. From then on, the synthesis of gold nanoparticles has

received a lot of attention, different supports, stabilizing and reducing agents have been used

for this purpose [3].

We have carried out the formation of gold nanoparticles using a biopolymer, chitosan, as

stabilizer of gold nanoparticles with not additional reducer. The chitosan was deposited on

silica in order to improve the weak mechanical properties and poor diffusion of the

biopolymer. Two materials with different chitosan/SiO2 ratio were synthesized. Before and

after gold incorporation the solids were characterized by different techniques what led us to

study the metal-support interactions. This interaction, between gold and NH and OH groups

of chitosan, could allow good dispersion of nanocrystals on the biopolymer what could

contribute to the benefits found in chitosan with respect to others supports [4].

Determination of metal particle sizes by TEM showed an average particle size of 4-6 nm and

2-4 nm for the material with lower and higher chitosan/SiO2 ratio respectively, what showed

the important stabilizer power of this biopolymer.

New Polymer-Metallodrug Conjugates for Cancer Diagnostics

Nadine E. Brückmann,a Peter C. Kunz,*,a

aHeinrich-Heine-Universtiy of Düsseldorf, Universitätsstr. 1, 40225, Düsseldorf, Germany

In order to improve current cancer pharmaceuticals, new transport systems are developed

that deliver drugs directly to tumors, where the drug can subsequently be released. This

delivery is made possible by the fact that macromolecules accumulate in tumors due to the

EPR-Effect [1]. Although polymers are now widely used in therapeutic approaches, only a

few examples of diagnostically used polymer-conjugates exist [2]. The use of technetium as a

radiotracer is of particular interest to cancer diagnostics and its chemistry is best resembled by

its heavier congener rhenium. Therefore, macromolecules carrying ligands that are able to

bind M(CO)3 (M = Tc, Re) are interesting for diagnostic as well as therapeutic (in the case of 188Re) approaches.

Tris(imidazolyl)phosphines (TIP) show versatile coordination chemistry. We developed

the novel imidazol-4(5)-ylphosphane class of ligands (4-TIP) besides the long known

imidazol-2-yl-phosphanes (2-TIP) [1]. The 4-TIP ligands are more stable to hydrolysis and

show different hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity (e.g. water solubility) depending on the

substitution pattern of these compounds.

known as anti-tumor agents and even show cytotoxicity in cis-platin resistant cells lines.

Analogues to cis-platin they bind to DNA oligonucleotides forming monofunctional adducts.

[4]. Inert binding of TIP to the M(CO)3+ fragment (M = Mn, Tc, Re) leads to interesting

moieties (II) for diagnosis (99mTc, t½ = 6 h, E = 140 keV) and therapy (188Re, t½ = 19,6 h, E

We have recently reported utilisation of several (phosphanyl)ferrocenecarboxylic acids,

and related amides combining planar and central chirality as ligands in enantioselective

palladium-catalysed allylic alkylation reaction [1,2]. As a next step in investigating the role of

individual chirality elements and the different donor atoms available in the ligands, we have

turned to compounds derived from well known 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ferrocene, dppf

[3]. Thus, acid 1 has been prepared in a racemic form from 1,1'-dibromoferrocene, and

subsequently resolved into the enantiomers via the corresponding ester 2 with a chiral sugar

derivative – diacetone-D-glucose. Our current research is aimed at exploiting the coordination

behaviour of both racemic and optically pure ligands and, particularly, at catalytic testing of

chiral compounds in enantioselective allylic alkylation.

50-383 Wroc aw, Poland

It is well known that vanadium complexes occurs in many biological systems in which its

coordination environment is created by O, S, N donor ligands.[1] The studies of sulphur-rich

ligation of vanadium has been an increased interest due to the effort of understanding of

vanadium nitrogenase, enzyme that catalyses the reduction of dinitrogen to ammonia and

converting of acetylene into ethene and ethane. In these both aspects vanadium complexes

containing 2,2’-oxydiehanethiolate (SOS)2- and 2,2’-thiobis{4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-

buthyl)phenolate} (OSO)2- ligands have been studied in our laboratory. It was shown that the

vanadium centre ligated with the (SOS)2 ligand are adept at binding coligands such as hydrazine,

hydrazido(2-), nitrido, relevant to the nitrogenase.[2] Furthermore, this ligand as well as (OSO)2-

ligand create highly active single-site vanadium catalysts for ethene polymerization.[3] As a part

of our ongoing study on these both aspects we were interested in preparation, structural study and

reactivity of new vanadium complexes with the N,N-dimethylethylenediamino-bis(2-methylene-

1,1,3,3-tetramethyl-buthylphenolate) (ONNO)2- ligand (Scheme).

Metal Complexes with Aryloxo, Aminobisaryloxo

and Aryloxoimine Ligands - Synthesis and Catalytic Activity

Katarzyna Krauzy - Dziedzic, S awomir Szafert, Jolanta Ejfler, Piotr Sobota*

Faculty of Chemistry, Wroc aw University, 14, F. Joliot-Curie, 50-383 Wroc aw, Poland

Transition and main group metal aryloxides is a fast growing family of complexes that

find application in numerous areas of chemical industry. The very early interest in such

compounds as lubricants is now driven out by their use in synthetic organic chemistry -

especially in enantioselective synthesis and catalysis [1]. They also find increasing application

as initiators and catalysts in different polymerization processes [2].

Simple homoleptic metal aryloxides, although well known, are not very common. We

have lately prepared an interesting titanium 7-benzofuranoxide by direct reaction of Ti(OiPr)4

or TiCl4 with commercially available 2,3-dihydro-2,2-dimethyl-7-benzofuranol (1). This

simple, monomeric in solution complex has proven to be an excellent initiator for ROP of

Based on this result we have prepared a series of Ti, Zr and Mg complexes with different

The study of heteromultinuclear transition metal complexes in which different metal

atoms are connected by -conjugated organic and/or inorganic carbon-rich bridging units is an

intriguing area of research, since such species may offer the possibility to study electronic

communication between the redox-active termini, exhibit non-linear optical properties or

provide, for example, cooperative effects in homogeneous catalysis.[1]

We report on the synthesis of novel heteromultimetallic complexes of structural type A – C.

The chemistry of metal sandwich group 4 metallocenes has attracted considerable

attention due to their applications in stoichiometric and catalytic reactions [1]. This rich

chemistry is dominated by their applications in olefin polymerization and is also promoted by

noteworthy transformations, involving reduction to Cp2Ti(III) and Cp2Ti(II) species, loss of

ring to give TiCl3Cp compound, and replacement of halogen by other unidate ligands.

As a part of our ongoing study we were interested in the preparation of mixed-metal alkoxo-

organometallic single-source precursors (SSP) for highly pure oxide-ceramics possess

perovskite structure. This has prompted us to study the behavior of titanocene TiCl2Cp2

towards exchange chlorine atoms with metal alkoxo species. The successful route to

substitution of titanium ligands in TiCl2Cp2 by 2-methoxyethanol is shown in Scheme. Direct

reaction of TiCl2Cp2 with metallic Sr, Ca and Mn in 2-methoxyethanol gave unexpected

cyclopentadienyl-free colorless heterometallic 1-3 complex.

Organometallic complexes containing chiral ligands are important as catalytic or

stoichiometric mediators of enantioselective reactions [1]. So there was the approach to

synthesise group 4 metallocenes with chiral substituted cyclopentadienyl ligands. A good

example for this is the (-)-menthylcyclopentadienyl ligand [2]. Starting from the metallocene

dichlorides (1, 2) the alkyne complexes (3, 4)and the difluorides (5, 6) are formed. It was

possible to synthesise the so far unknown bis(8-phenylmenthylcyclopentadienyl)-

dichlorozirconium(IV) (7), which possibly provide a greater influence in stereoselectiv

reactions. This feasable influence is due to the phenyl-groups which tend to form -stacking

complexes [3]. Further reactions of these complexes, e.g. hydrosilylation of imines and the

formation of metallacycles, are under investigation.

The chemistry of organozinc compounds has a long history, in which many application for

metal alkyls have been found in both organic and organometallic chemistry. Over recent years

the exploitation of zinc complexes supported by -diketiminato ligand systems has provided a

number of spectacular results.[1]

As part of ongoing structure and reactivity studies involving the RZn(X,Y) chelate

complexes, we have initiated to examine the solid state and solution structure of alkylzinc

N,N’-chelate and N,O-chelate complexes based on pyrrolyl ligands. We turned our attention

to bi- and trifunctional pyrrolyl ligands, anticipating that a combination of pyrrole and Schiff

base type ligands or carbonyl group may provide spectacular results.

Series of zinc alkyl complexes supported by pyrrolyl ligands have been synthesized and

structurally characterized. Our studies demonstrate that pyrrolyl ligands are electronically

very flexible ligand system. For example, we have found that pyrrolylaldiminate type ligand

in zinc complexes shows -N or the dihapto 2- -donor type of coordination of pyrrolyl

ligand. the most diverse of coordination modes we have observed for zinc complexes

stabilized by 2,2’-dipirryl-diketone: the -N and the dihapto 2- -donor type for the pyrrolyl

unit and a double coordination of the carbonyl group.

The identification and characterization of weak intermolecular interactions as well as their

influence on the supramolecular structure of the studied complexes will be discussed.

The central role played by cations and anions in physiology has provided the inspiration

for the design of abiotic receptors that bind selectively and simultaneously both ions. [1]. We

have synthesized receptors 1 - 4 and investigated their complexation properties. NMR studies

reveal the high potential of Ph2ClSn-CH2-[16]-crown-5[2], 1 , and Ph2ClSn-CH2-[19]-crown-6,

2, to complex NaSCN and KSCN, respectively , while in addition to NMR studies, X-ray

diffraction analyses showed that the robust receptors {Ph2(I)Sn-CH2-Sn(Ph)(I)-CH2-[16]-

crown-5}[3], 3, and {Ph2(I)Sn-CH2-Sn(Ph)(I)-CH2-[19]-crown-6, 4, overcome the lattice

energy of NaF in CD3CN and of KF in CDCl3 and bind these salts as separated ions to give

the ditopic complexes 3·NaF and 4·KF, respectively. Most recently, receptor 5 has been

synthesized and its complexation properties are currently investigated.

Generally organotin(IV) fluorides tend to form oligo- or polymeric species with 2D and

3D structures connected via fluorine bridges and thus to saturate their tin coordination

vicinity/number up to seven. These species often with changeable composition, structure and

properties are not useful in synthetic or catalytic applications.

To prevent the formation of polymeric species, we decided to saturate the tin coordination

sphere by adjacent donor atom. For such a duty we have selected the 2-(N,N-

dimethylaminomethyl)phenyl group as a C,N-chelating ligand (LCN) which was frequently

studied in the literature [1].

The structure, reactivity and use of some C,N-chelated organotin(IV) fluorides will be

discussed.

1,1’-Diphosphaferrocenyl conjugates of aminoacid esters

Bartosz Mucha, Janusz Zakrzewski

Department of Organic Chemistry University of Lodz 90-136 Lodz, Narutowicza 68

There has been considerable interest in the introduction of redox-active ferrocenyl groups

into natural aminoacids, peptides or proteins [1]. One of the most important methods of

synthesis of ferrocenyl conjugates of aminoacids is the reaction of ferrrocenecarboxaldehyde

(FcCHO) with aminoacid esters, giving corresponding imines, reduced in situ to

FcCH2NHCH(R)COOR’. Recently we became interested in the application of this approach

for synthesis of 1,1’-diphosphaferrocenyl conjugates of aminoacids from aldehyde 1.

However, this aldehyde is planary chiral and the use of the racemic compound would lead to

mixtures of diastereomers. Fortunately, we earlier described an efficient method of resolution

of this compound [2] and herein we report on synthesis of stereoisomers 2 and 3 from

glycine, L-alanine and L-phenylalanine methyl esters. We have also found that 2a reacts with

one eq. of W(CO)5(THF) to give mixtures of complexes 4-6, which were separated by

column chromatography and their structures were confirmed by spectroscopic data.

The aim of this work was to optimize synthesis of nickelafluorenyllithium and to study

reactions of this compound with iron and cobalt acetylacetonates. The first part of the work

was to synthesize nickelafluorenyllithium in various solvents. Reactions carried out in two of

the applied solvents (diethyl ether and tetrahydrofurane) gave satisfactory results. The

reaction carried out in diethyl ether was more effective. The yield of the product was higher

and less reaction steps were needed to get the final compound.

In the second reaction the new bimetallic complex, with both cobalt and nickel atoms, was

formed. The EI mass spectrum of the complex 1 showed its molecular ion at m/e 469 with an

Nickelocene reacts with organolithium and –magnesium compounds (LiR, RMgX) form-

ing in the first step an unstable 16 VE species {CpNiR}. This species undergoes further reac-

tions: hydrogenation, coupling, elimination etc., forming a wide range of cyclopentadienyl-

nickel clusters. The main product of the reaction of nickelocene with methyllithium is

ethylidyne-tri(cyclopentadienylnickel) cluster (NiCp)3( 3-CCH3). The other products isolated

at lower yield were: -allyl complex (NiCp)( 3-C5H7), di(cyclopentadienylnickel) complex

(NiCp)2( -C5H6), and clusters (NiCp)3( 3-CH), (NiCp)5( -CCH3), (NiCp)6 , (NiCp)6C,

(NiCp)6C2. The reaction of nickelocene with methyllithium carried out in the presence of ole-

fins allowed for isolation of the -complex CpNi(Me)( 2-alkene). This complex, stable below

0 ºC, undergoes slow thermal decomposition at room temperature, forming the same products

as in the previous reaction. The main product was also the cluster (NiCp)3( 3-CCH3).[1,2,3]

However, the main product of the reaction of methyllithium with nickelocene derivative,

bearing alkenyl substituents in the cyclopentadienyl rings, was the dinickel compound of the

structure shown below:

Intramolecular stabilization of the dinickel compound by the formation of olefinic com-

plex with nickel, appeared to be strong enough to prevent the formation of higher clusters in

consequent reactions.

Group IV and V metal complexes of the (NOSON)- and (ONNO)- type

ligands; synthesis, structure and catalytic activity

Izabela Ja yna, Piotr Sobota, Zofia Janas*

Faculty of Chemistry, University of Wroc aw, 14, F. Joliot-Curie, 50-383 Wroc aw, Poland.

One of the most significant application of group IV metal complexes is the catalytic

polymerization of -olefins. In recent years there is a growing recognition that

nonmetallocene complexes hold great promise as olefin polymerization catalysts [1]. Most

successful developments in terms of catalysis have appeared using chelating, polydentate

bis(aryloxide) ligands having an additional coordinating heteroatom (N, O, S).

Recently we have described the family of titanium complexes based on the 2,2’-thiobis{4-

(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenolato} (OSO) ligand, which led after activation with aluminum

alkyls to highly active, well-defined, single-site catalysts to ethene polymerization process

[2]. As a part of our ongoing study on this area we were interested in modification of the

(OSO) ligand with additional heteroatom like nitrogen to achieve new ligands of the

(NOSON)- and (ONNO)- type (Scheme) and their application to generation of group IV and

V metal complexes that might serve as catalysts for olefin polymerization process. Synthesis

of two new ligands and their Ti, Ta, Nb complexes will be presented in details.

Magnesio- tin compounds are reactive intermediates for the synthesis of cyclic organo-

tin products that are inaccessible by other synthetic pathways. [1]

1,1,2,2,3,3,4-Hepta-tbutyl-4-magnesio-chloro-tetrastanna-cyclobutane (1) can be

synthesised starting either from di-tert-butyldichlorostannane or from octa-tert-

butyldichlorotetrastannane in a Grignard type reaction. This product is fully characterised by

multinuclear NMR spectroscopy (119Sn, 1H and 13C) Due to its nucleophilicity 1 is an

interesting starting point for further derivatisation reactions.

Among the resulting products synthesised are tBu7Sn4Me, tBu7Sn4Pr and tBu7Sn4Br.tBu7Sn4Me could be characterized by X-ray crystal structure analysis.

obtain 1,1,2,2,3,3,4-hepta-tertbutyl-4-magnesio-chloro-tetrastanna-cyclobutan. Furthermore

some reaction of compound 1 will be discussed as well.

Catalytic hydrogenations belong to the standard tools of synthetic organic chemistry.

Nevertheless there are only rare examples of non noble metal based catalysts for such

reactions. Our research interest is therefore focused on the development of new rhenium

based catalysts for hydrogenation. Recently the rhenium-nitrosyl complexes [ReH2( 2-

C2H4)(NO)(PR3)] and [ReH( 2-BH4)(NO)(PR3)] (R=isopropyl, cyclohexyl) have successfully

been used as hydrogenation and hydrosilylation catalysts[1],[2]. It was anticipated that these

catalyst precursors lose initially the weakly bound ligand (C2H4 or BH3) and the catalytic

cycle then follows than a typical Wilkinson-type mechanism:

catalyse the hydrogenation of the model substrates ethylene, 1-hexene and cyclohexene.

Therefore we study these reactions in greater detail to obtain experimental data to confirm the

proposed mechanism and also to get further information on the optimization of the catalyst.

High-Selective Dehydrogenative Silylation Catalyzed by Rhenium

Complexes: Reaction Development and Mechanistic Studies

Dehydrogenative silylation reaction, which permits the direct production of unsaturated

silyl compounds from olefins and silanes, has drawn increasing attention during the last two

decades.1 However, a major drawback of this reaction is the formation of hydrosilylated by-

products. Thus, highly chemoselective processes are desired. So far, catalysts for selective

dehydrogenative silylation are mainly limited to late transition metal complexes, such as

[M3(CO)12] (M = Fe, Ru, Os),2 cationic [Rh(COD)2]BF4/PPh3,3 [RuH2(H2)2(PCy3)2] 4 and

cationic Pd(II) complexes 5.

Substituted alkynylsilanes are an important group of reagents commonly used in many

fields of chemistry, e.g. as alkynylating agents in synthesis of organic, organosilicon and

natural products as well as precursors of optoelectronic materials[1]. Alkynylsilanes can be

prepared by classical stoichiometric routes or by metal complex – catalyzed reactions[2].

Herein, we present a new catalytic silylative coupling reaction of terminal alkynes with

vinyl-substituted organosilicon compounds proceeding in the presence of ruthenium

complexes. It is an efficient and direct way for the synthesis of substituted alkynylsilanes[3].

This process can be employed for modification of multivinylsubstituted silicon

Dienylboronates and dienylsilylboronates constitute a class of functionalized building

blocks commonly used in organic and natural products synthesis, since the boronate moiety,

as well as silyl group, can be easily converted into other functional groups [1,2].

Borylsubstituted buta-1,3-dienes can be prepared by classical stoichiometric routes using

organometallic reagents or more recently by catalytic methods.

In the communication we report a new convenient method for selective synthesis of 1-

boryl and 1-boryl-4-silyl substituted buta-1,3-dienes via one step coupling of terminal alkynes

(also silylacetylenes) with vinylboronates catalyzed by complexes containing [Ru]-H bond,

occurring according to the following equitation:

The stoichiometric reactions were carried out to prove the mechanism of this new process,

in which insertion of terminal acetylene to [Ru]-H bond is the preliminary step followed by

insertion of vinylboronate to Ru-C= bonds and elimination of boryl dienes. It is in contrast to

previously recognized reactions of acetylenes with vinylsilanes and vinylgermanes, which

occur via preliminary insertion of vinylmetalloid into M-H bond to give M-E bond (and

ethylene) followed by insertion of acetylene into M-E bond and elimination of silyl and

germyl functionalized ethynes [3,4].

Oligonuclear Ethenyl Bridged Styryl Complexes of Ruthenium: Synthesis, Electrochemical and Spectroeletrochemical Investigation

The Ru-vinyl entity exhibits strong delocalization of the redox orbitals over the metal as

well as the organic bridging ligand [1]. Although “non-innocent” behaviour is well known for

inorganic coordination compounds, there are only few examples of organometallic systems

with direct metal-carbon bonds. Recently the electrochemical behaviour of mononuclear

ruthenium-vinyl-complexes has been studied in a systematic way to link the metal vs. ligand

contribution to experimentally accessible values like half-wave potentials, oxidation induced

CO band shifts and ESR-parameters [2]. We have now extended our studies to di- and

tetranuclear stilbene and tetraphenylethene derived complexes [{RuCl(CO)(PR´3)2L}2{µ2-

bis(styryl)ethene}] and [{RuCl(CO)(PR´3)2L}4{µ4-tetrakis(p-styryl)ethene}] (R´ = Ph, iPr, Et;

L = none or ethyl isonicotinate). The complexes were investigated by electrochemistry, IR-

and UV/Vis/NIR-spectroelectrochemistry and ESR-spectroscopy in order to probe for the

degree of electron delocalization in their various oxidized forms and the relative metal and

ligand contributions to the respective redox orbitals. These studies also revealed strong

electrochromism, particularly of the tetranuclear complexes. Our experimental results are

backed by quantum chemistry.

Electron transfer is one of the most fundamental processes in chemistry and biology. The spatial organization of electron donor and acceptor sites in enzymes and artificial supramolecular systems often depends on strong hydrogen bridges. A quadruply hydrogen bonding, symmetrical DDAA motif based on ureapyrimidones has recently been shown to efficiently mediate electron transfer between two ferrocenyl substituents[1]. We here discuss the synthesis, structures, solution behaviour and the electron transfer properties of ureapyrimidone dimers 2a,b and 3a (see Chart) having redox active ruthenium and osmium styryl substituents in their backbones. This general structure ensues a high charge and spin density at the styryl group in the oxidized state(s) [2], while the carbonyl ligand of complexes 2a,b and 3 provides an indicative, charge-sensitive spectroscopic label. Both these attributes are missing in the ferrocenyl substituted counterpart.

The issue of the presence and strength of electronic interactions between the two identical styryl units is addressed by in situ IR and UV/Vis/NIR spectroelectrochemistry. The results on the ureapyrimidone-bridged dimers are compared to those for the phenylurea substituted styryl ruthenium complex 5, which is monomeric in solution. Quantum chemical calculations performed on simplified model complexes aid in the interpretation of our experimental results.

The hydrogenation of C=O double bonds of ketones and aldehydes play an important role in

the agricultural, pharmaceutical and other chemical industries. Up to now, most of the homogeneous

catalysts promoting this reaction are based on precious metals, such as ruthenium and rhodium.

Tungsten and molybdenum hydride complexes were shown to provide hydride transfers to ketones

that is the first step in a hypothetical catalytic cycle of the hydrogenation reaction [1,2]. The ligand

trans to the hydrogen atom has a crucial influence on its activity.

Since Brookhart’s and Gibson’s concurrent discovery in the 1990s that late transition

metal complexes of the Schiff base 2,6-bis(imino)pyridine ligands are exceptionally active

olefin polymerization catalysts [1,2], these pincer-type ligands have attracted a lot of attention

[3]. Recently, we have introduced the tridentate bis(imidazolin-2-imino)pyridine ligand

(TLtBu) and its application in copper coordination chemistry [4]. The TLtBu ligand can be best

described by the two limiting resonance structures A and B (Scheme 1) and can be considered

as a potentially more basic analogue of Schiff base 2,6-bis(imino)pyridine ligands [3]. Due to

the highly basic nature of the ligand, it can stabilize a number of Lewis acidic metal ions.

ligand behavior towards lanthanides, the reaction of TLtBu with LnCl3 was studied, and the

synthesis of cationic lanthanide alkyl complexes was attempted.

Toward Synthesis of Hybrid Ligands – Regioselective Phosphination of

Carbaporphyrinoids are porphyrin analogues containing a CH fragment instead of one

of the pyrrolic nitrogens. This so called “internal carbon” is often found susceptible to

substitution reactions. Examples reported to date include alkylations, halogenations, nitration,

internal fusion, acetoxylation, cyanation, oxygen insertion, regioselective pyridination. and

formation of a ketal Recently reported carbaporpholactone 1 provides a suitable

environment to stabilize the rare oxidation states (copper(III) or silver(III)) of coordinated

metal ions due the formation of -metal-carbon bond. Regioselective reaction of silver(III)

carbaporpholoactone with potassium diphenylophosphide in THF yields 21-

(diphenylphosphino)-carbaporpholactone 2 as the single substitution product which in

oxidative reaction conditions transforms quantitatively into 21-(diphenylphosphoryl)-

carbaporpholactone 3 as confirmed by detailed NMR studies. A mechanism involving a high-

valent silver complex is proposed for the phosphination reaction.

nature of 3. The copper(II) is five-coordinate with bonds to three pyrrolic nitrogens, the

oxygen atom of phosphoryl moiety, and to the pyrrole C(21) carbon. Further aspects of the

reactivity of carbaporpholactone complexes are currently explored in our laboratory.

NMR spectroscopic evidence shows that these new systems, adopt helical conformations,

which undergo an inversion process in solution. The helical conformation of 2 was confirmed

by X-ray diffraction. Moreover, small amounts of unexpected scrambling products have been

isolated and characterized, namely a dipyrrin-bisferrocenophane and two expanded bis-

ferrrocene macrocycles. Formation of these systems, which contain macrocyclic rings of

different sizes, is a consequence of the structural flexibility of the ferrocene unit. Cyclic

voltammetry demonstrates that ferrocene oxidation is reversible in all systems reported here,

and that it is finely tuned by the properties of the macrocyclic system.

Tripodal ligands such as bis(pyrazol-1-yl)acetic acid (Hbpza) and its derivatives (e. g.

Hbdmpza, Hbdtbpza) have shown to be versatile structural mimics for the facial 2-His-1-

carboxylate triad of non-heme iron oxygenases and for the 2-His-1-carboxylate motif of

gluzincines [1]. Recently, the work of our group and others has focused on the synthesis of

imidazole based tripodal ligands such as the bis(N-methylimidazol-2-yl)propionic acid

(Hbmip) [2,3]. Here, we report on the synthesis of bis(N-methylimidazol-2-ylmethyl)acetic

In the last two decades transition metal imido complexes have attracted considerable

interest since they proved to be active catalysts in different catalytic transformations like

metathesis, cycloaddition, C-H activation, polymerisation and hydroamination reactions [1].

In stark contrast to the rich chemistry of imido complexes containing d-block elements,

lanthanide imido complexes are largely unexplored, and reports on well-defined imido

complexes containing 4f-elements are scarce [2].

As a terminal ligand, the formally dianionic imido ligand (NR)2- coordinates with a metal-

nitrogen multiple bond consisting of one and either one or two interactions [3]. This

resembles the bonding in transition metal complexes containing monoanionic imidazolin-2-

iminato ligands of type I, which can be described by the two limiting resonance structures IA

and IB (Scheme 1), indicating that the ability of the imidazolium ring to stabilize a positive

charge leads to highly basic ligands with a strong electron donating capacity towards early

transition metals [3]. Therefore, lanthanide complexes with terminal imidazolin-2-iminato

ligands, [4] which will be presented here, can serve as accurate models for elusive

mononuclear lanthanide imido complexes, and their structural investigation could lead to a

better understanding of lanthanide-nitrogen multiple bonding [2]. Novel Ti imido complexes

have been also synthesised and their reactivity towards cyclooctatetraene studied.

aUniversity of Heidelberg, Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Im Neuenheimer Feld 270, 69120

Heidelberg, Germany

Gallium amides, with gallium in the low oxidation state +I, might be well-defined starting

materials for the synthesis of novel organo gallium compounds and metalloid gallium clusters

[1]. The cluster chemistry of gallium has made vast progress during the last years. In most

cases bulky organyl or silyl substituents have been used.

The amino substituted gallatetrahedranes Ga4[N(SiMe3)dipp]4 (dipp = 2,6

diisopropylphenyl), 1, and Ga4tmp4 (tmp = 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidino), 2, are the first

oligomeric gallium(I)amides. Their synthesis [2], structure, bonding and some reactions of

these compounds will be discussed.

Synthesis and structure of alkylaluminium and alkylgallium derivatives

of phthalic and phthalamic acid

The chemistry of organoaluminum carboxylates and carboxylate alumoxanes has been

under investigation in the last few decades due to their wide potential applications in materials

science as precursors for alumina fibers or aluminum oxides. Nevertheless, the knowledge

about the structure and reactivity of organogallium carboxylates is rather scant. Recently, we

have reported the synthesis and structure characterization of the first examples of

alkylaluminum derivatives of mono- and dicarboxylic acids [1]. We have also provided an

efficient route to tetramethylalumoxane moieties and carboxylate-substituted alumoxanes [2].

Here we present the synthesis and structural characterization of a series of clusters derived

from Me3Ga and phthalic acid by using various molar ratios. Moreover, we have extended the

former studies to phthalamic acid (Scheme 1). Addition of 2 equiv. of Me3Al to phthalamic

acid resulted in the formation of the new tetranuclear adduct I. In contrast, the similar reaction

with Me3Ga at different molar ratios afforded the dinuclear gallium compound II and a novel

carboxylate galoxane III was obtained. The reactivity of novel aluminum and gallium

derivatives of phthalic and phthalamic acid will also be discussed.

Cyclopentadienyl Iron - Bismuth Compounds

Synthesis, Structure and Reactivity

Technische Universität Chemnitz, Institut für Chemie, 09107 Chemnitz, Germany. a) X-ray crystallography

Over the last years there has been considerable interest in bismuth compounds because of

their wide spectrum of applications in many aspects of our live. For example for more than

two centuries bismuth compounds have been used in medicine and still can be found in

medical formulations [1]. Recently, bismuth containing heterometallic oxides, thin films,

nanoparticles and nanofibers have received considerable interest for their potential

applications as oxidation catalysts, next generation memory devices, high Tc

superconductors, high temperature electrolytes, nonlinear optical materials and ‘‘green’’

lubricant [2, 3].

In our work we focus on heterometallic bismuth transition metal compounds [4, 5], which

are of interest as a new class of potential starting materials for more sophisticated molecular

precursors for heterometallic bismuth–containing compounds [5]. In this context the reactivity

of cyclopentadienyldicarbonyl iron derivatives with bismuth halides (Cl, Br), bismuth

siloxides and alkoxides have been studied. The synthesis, structure and reactivity of

[Cpy(CO)2Fe-BiX2] (Cpy- C5H5, tBu2-C5H3,C5Me5, X- Cl, Br) will be discussed.
