A Synthetically Generated LFe^IVOH _n Complex.

ABSTRACT: High-valent Fe-OH species are important intermediates in hydroxylation chemistry. Such complexes have been implicated in mechanisms of oxygen-activating enzymes and have thus far been observed in Compound II of sulfur-ligated heme enzymes like cytochrome P450. Attempts to synthetically model such species have thus far seen relatively little success. Here, the first synthetic Fe^IVOH _n complex has been generated and spectroscopically characterized as either [LFe^IVOH]^- or [LFe^IVOH₂]⁰, where H₄L = Me₄C₂(NHCOCMe₂NHCO)₂CMe₂ is a variant of a tetra-amido macrocyclic ligand (TAML). The steric bulk provided by the replacement of the aryl group with the -CMe₂CMe₂- unit in this TAML variant prevents dimerization in all oxidation states over a wide pH range, thus allowing the generation of Fe^IVOH _n in near quantitative yield from oxidation of the [LFe^IIIOH₂]^- precursor.

106-fold faster C-H bond hydroxylation by a CoIII,IV2(µ-O)2 complex [via a CoIII2(µ-O)(µ-OH) intermediate] versus its FeIIIFeIV analog.

Project description:The hydroxylation of C-H bonds can be carried out by the high-valent CoIII,IV2(µ-O)2 complex 2a supported by the tetradentate tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine ligand via a CoIII2(µ-O)(µ-OH) intermediate (3a). Complex 3a can be independently generated either by H-atom transfer (HAT) in the reaction of 2a with phenols as the H-atom donor or protonation of its conjugate base, the CoIII2(µ-O)2 complex 1a. Resonance Raman spectra of these three complexes reveal oxygen-isotope-sensitive vibrations at 560 to 590 cm-1 associated with the symmetric Co-O-Co stretching mode of the Co2O2 diamond core. Together with a Co•••Co distance of 2.78(2) Å previously identified for 1a and 2a by Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (EXAFS) analysis, these results provide solid evidence for their "diamond core" structural assignments. The independent generation of 3a allows us to investigate HAT reactions of 2a with phenols in detail, measure the redox potential and pKa of the system, and calculate the O-H bond strength (DO-H) of 3a to shed light on the C-H bond activation reactivity of 2a. Complex 3a is found to be able to transfer its hydroxyl ligand onto the trityl radical to form the hydroxylated product, representing a direct experimental observation of such a reaction by a dinuclear cobalt complex. Surprisingly, reactivity comparisons reveal 2a to be 106-fold more reactive in oxidizing hydrocarbon C-H bonds than corresponding FeIII,IV2(µ-O)2 and MnIII,IV2(µ-O)2 analogs, an unexpected outcome that raises the prospects for using CoIII,IV2(µ-O)2 species to oxidize alkane C-H bonds.

Photoelectron Spectroscopy of OH--Anion-Water Clusters Generated by Ultrasonic Nebulizer.

Project description:Investigating molecules in the gas phase is the only way to discover their intrinsic molecular properties; however, it is challenging to produce the gaseous phase of large-molecule chemicals. Thermal evaporation is typically used to convert molecules into gases, but it is still challenging to study ionic molecules in solutions in the gas phase. Electrospray ionization is one of the best methods to generate molecules in the gas phase, and it is uniquely capable of studying large biomolecules, including proteins. However, the molecular temperature required to study the spectroscopic properties of the molecules is very high. In this study, we developed a new, simple evaporation method using an ultrasonic nebulizer to obtain gas-phase molecules. Using this new equipment, we observed OH- anions and their water clusters in the gas phase and obtained their photoelectron spectra. We observed that the vertical electron-detachment energy (VDE) of OH- was 1.90 ± 0.05 eV and the VDEs of its water clusters and OH- (H2O)n (n = 1-2) decreased to 1.50 ± 0.05 eV (n = 1) and 1.30 ± 0.05 eV (n = 2), respectively.

Enhanced CH3OH selectivity in CO2 hydrogenation using Cu-based catalysts generated via SOMC from GaIII single-sites.

Project description:Small and narrowly distributed nanoparticles of copper alloyed with gallium supported on silica containing residual GaIII sites can be obtained via surface organometallic chemistry in a two-step process: (i) formation of isolated GaIII surface sites on SiO2 and (ii) subsequent grafting of a CuI precursor, [Cu(O t Bu)]4, followed by a treatment under H2 to generate CuGa x alloys. This material is highly active and selective for CO2 hydrogenation to CH3OH. In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy shows that gallium is oxidized under reaction conditions while copper remains as Cu0. This CuGa material only stabilizes methoxy surface species while no formate is detected according to ex situ infrared and solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.

Comparison of two MnIVMnIV-bis-μ-oxo complexes {[MnIV(N4(6-Me-DPEN))]2(μ-O)2}2+ and {[MnIV(N4(6-Me-DPPN))]2(μ-O)2}2.

Project description:The addition of tert-butyl hydro-peroxide ( t BuOOH) to two structurally related MnII complexes containing N,N-bis-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl-meth-yl)ethane-1,2-di-amine (6-Me-DPEN) and N,N-bis-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl-meth-yl)propane-1,2-di-amine (6-Me-DPPN) results in the formation of high-valent bis-oxo complexes, namely di-μ-oxido-bis-{[N,N-bis-(6-methyl-2-pyridylmeth-yl)ethane-1,2-di-amine]-manganese(II)}(Mn-Mn) bis-(tetra-phenyl-borate) dihydrate, [Mn(C16H22N4)2O2](C24H20B)2·2H2O or {[MnIV(N4(6-Me-DPEN))]2(μ-O)2}(2BPh4)(2H2O) (1) and di-μ-oxido-bis-{[N,N-bis-(6-methyl-2-pyridylmeth-yl)propane-1,3-di-amine]-manganese(II)}(Mn-Mn) bis-(tetra-phenyl-borate) diethyl ether disolvate, [Mn(C17H24N4)2O2](C24H20B)2·2C4H10O or {[MnIV(N4(6-MeDPPN))]2(μ-O)2}(2BPh4)(2Et2O) (2). Complexes 1 and 2 both contain the 'diamond core' motif found previously in a number of iron, copper, and manganese high-valent bis-oxo compounds. The flexibility in the propyl linker in the ligand scaffold of 2, as compared to that of the ethyl linker in 1, results in more elongated Mn-N bonds, as one would expect. The Mn-Mn distances and Mn-O bond lengths support an MnIV oxidation state assignment for the Mn ions in both 1 and 2. The angles around the Mn centers are consistent with the local pseudo-octa-hedral geometry.

Functional Model of Compound II of Cytochrome P450: Spectroscopic Characterization and Reactivity Studies of a FeIV-OH Complex.

Project description:Herein, we show that the reaction of a mononuclear FeIII(OH) complex (1) with N-tosyliminobenzyliodinane (PhINTs) resulted in the formation of a FeIV(OH) species (3). The obtained complex 3 was characterized by an array of spectroscopic techniques and represented a rare example of a synthetic FeIV(OH) complex. The reaction of 1 with the one-electron oxidizing agent was reported to form a ligand-oxidized FeIII(OH) complex (2). 3 revealed a one-electron reduction potential of -0.22 V vs Fc+/Fc at -15 °C, which was 150 mV anodically shifted than 2 (Ered = -0.37 V vs Fc+/Fc at -15 °C), inferring 3 to be more oxidizing than 2. 3 reacted spontaneously with (4-OMe-C6H4)3C• to form (4-OMe-C6H4)3C(OH) through rebound of the OH group and displayed significantly faster reactivity than 2. Further, activation of the hydrocarbon C-H and the phenolic O-H bond by 2 and 3 was compared and showed that 3 is a stronger oxidant than 2. A detailed kinetic study established the occurrence of a concerted proton-electron transfer/hydrogen atom transfer reaction of 3. Studying one-electron reduction of 2 and 3 using decamethylferrocene (Fc*) revealed a higher ket of 3 than 2. The study established that the primary coordination sphere around Fe and the redox state of the metal center is very crucial in controlling the reactivity of high-valent Fe-OH complexes. Further, a FeIII(OMe) complex (4) was synthesized and thoroughly characterized, including X-ray structure determination. The reaction of 4 with PhINTs resulted in the formation of a FeIV(OMe) species (5), revealing the presence of two FeIV species with isomer shifts of -0.11 mm/s and = 0.17 mm/s in the Mössbauer spectrum and showed FeIV/FeIII potential at -0.36 V vs Fc+/Fc couple in acetonitrile at -15 °C. The reactivity studies of 5 were investigated and compared with the FeIV(OH) complex (3).

Generation and Applications of the Hydroxide Trihydrate Anion, [OH(OH2 )3 ]- , Stabilized by a Weakly Coordinating Cation.

Project description:The reaction of a strongly basic phosphazene (Schwesinger base) with water afforded the corresponding metastable hydroxide trihydrate [OH(OH2 )3 ]- salt. This is the first hydroxide solvate that is not in contact with a cation and furthermore one of rare known water-stabilized hydroxide anions. Thermolysis in vacuum results in the decomposition of the hydroxide salt and quantitative liberation of the free phosphazene base. This approach was used to synthesize the Schwesinger base from its hydrochloride salt after anion exchange in excellent yields of over 97 %. This deprotonation method can also be used for the phosphazene-base-catalyzed preparation of the Ruppert-Prakash reagent Me3 SiCF3 using fluoroform (HCF3 ) as the trifluoromethyl building block and sodium hydroxide as the formal deprotonation agent.

Highly Reactive CoIII,IV2(μ-O)2 Diamond Core Complex That Cleaves C-H Bonds.

Project description:The selective activation of strong sp3 C-H bonds at mild conditions is a key step in many biological and synthetic transformations and an unsolved challenge for synthetic chemists. In nature, soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) is one representative example of nonheme dinuclear iron-dependent enzymes that activate strong sp3 C-H bonds by a high-valent diiron(IV) intermediate Q. To date, synthetic model complexes of sMMO-Q have shown limited abilities to oxidize strong C-H bonds. In this work, we generated a high-valent CoIII,IV2(μ-O)2 complex 3 supported by a tetradentate tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (TPA) ligand via one-electron oxidation of its CoIII2(μ-O)2 precursor 2. Characterization of 2 and 3 using X-ray absorption spectroscopy and DFT calculations showed that both species possess a diamond core structure with a short Co···Co distance of 2.78 Å. Furthermore, 3 is an EPR active species showing an S = 1/2 signal with clearly observable hyperfine splittings originated from the coupling of the 59Co nuclear spin with the electronic spin. Importantly, 3 is a highly reactive oxidant for sp3 C-H bonds, and an oxygenation reagent. 3 has the highest rate constant (1.5 M-1 s-1 at -60 °C) for oxidizing 9,10-dihydroanthracene (DHA) compared to diamond core complexes of other first-row transition metals including Mn, Fe and Cu reported previously. Specifically, 3 is about 4-5 orders of magnitude more reactive than the diiron analogs FeIII,IV2(μ-O)2 and FeIV2(μ-O)2 supported by TPA and related ligands. These findings shed light on future development of more reactive approaches for C-H bond activation by bioinspired dicobalt complexes.

CeIV - and HClO4 -Promoted Assembly of an Fe2IV (μ-O)2 Diamond Core from its Monomeric FeIV =O Precursor at Room Temperature.

Project description:Diiron(IV)-oxo species are proposed to effect the cleavage of strong C-H bonds by nonheme diiron enzymes such as soluble methane monooxygenase (sMMO) and fatty acid desaturases. However, synthetic mimics of such diiron(IV) oxidants are rare. Herein we report the reaction of (TPA*)FeII (1) (TPA*=tris(3,5-dimethyl-4-methoxypyridyl-2-methyl)amine) in CH3 CN with 4 equiv CAN and 200 equiv HClO4 at 20 °C to form a complex with an [FeIV2 (μ-O)2 ]4+ core. CAN and HClO4 play essential roles in this unprecedented transformation, in which the comproportionation of FeIII -O-CeIV and FeIV =O/Ce4+ species is proposed to be involved in the assembly of the [FeIV2 (μ-O)2 ]4+ core.

[Fe(µ2-OH)6]3- Linked Fe3O Triads: Mossbauer Evidence for Trigonal µ3-O2- or µ3-OH- Groups in Bridged versus Unbridged Complexes.

Project description:The syntheses, coordination chemistry, and Mössbauer spectroscopy of hepta-iron(III) complexes using derivatised salicylaldoxime ligands from two categories; namely, 'single-headed' (H2L) and 'double-headed' (H4L) salicylaldoximes are described. All compounds presented here share a [Fe3-µ3-O] core in which the iron(III) ions are µ3-hydroxo-bridged in the complex C1 and µ3-oxo-bridged in C2 and C3. Each compound consists of 2 × [Fe3-µ3-O] triads that are linked via a central [Fe(µ2-OH)6]3- ion. In addition to the charge balance and microanalytical evidence, Mössbauer measurements support the fact that the triads in C1 are µ3-OH bridged and are µ3-O bridged in C2 and C3.

S = 3 Ground State for a Tetranuclear MnIV4O4 Complex Mimicking the S3 State of the Oxygen-Evolving Complex.

Project description:The S3 state is currently the last observable intermediate prior to O-O bond formation at the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC) of Photosystem II, and its electronic structure has been assigned to a homovalent MnIV4 core with an S = 3 ground state. While structural interpretations based on the EPR spectroscopic features of the S3 state provide valuable mechanistic insight, corresponding synthetic and spectroscopic studies on tetranuclear complexes mirroring the Mn oxidation states of the S3 state remain rare. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization by XAS and multifrequency EPR spectroscopy of a MnIV4O4 cuboidal complex as a spectroscopic model of the S3 state. Results show that this MnIV4O4 complex has an S = 3 ground state with isotropic 55Mn hyperfine coupling constants of -75, -88, -91, and 66 MHz. These parameters are consistent with an αααβ spin topology approaching the trimer-monomer magnetic coupling model of pseudo-octahedral MnIV centers. Importantly, the spin ground state changes from S = 1/2 to S = 3 as the OEC is oxidized from the S2 state to the S3 state. This same spin state change is observed following oxidation of the previously reported MnIIIMnIV3O4 cuboidal complex to the MnIV4O4 complex described here. This sets a synthetic precedent for the observed low-spin to high-spin conversion in the OEC.
