Reversible Modulation of the Electronic and Spatial Environment around Ni(0) Centers Bearing Multifunctional Carbene Ligands with Triarylaluminum
Journal of the American Chemical Society(2023)
摘要
Designing and modulatingthe electronic and spatial environmentssurrounding metal centers is a crucial issue in a wide range of chemistryfields that use organometallic compounds. Herein, we demonstrate aLewis-acid-mediated reversible expansion, contraction, and transformationof the spatial environment surrounding nickel(0) centers that bear N-phosphine oxide-substituted N-heterocycliccarbenes (henceforth referred to as (S)PoxIms). Reaction between tetrahedral(syn-& kappa;-C,O-(S)PoxIm)Ni(CO)(2) and Al(C6F5)(3) smoothly afforded heterobimetallic Ni/Al species such astrigonal-planar {& kappa;-C-Ni(CO)(2)}(& mu;-anti-(S)PoxIm){& kappa;-O-Al(C6F5)(3)} via a complexation-induced rotation ofthe N-phosphine oxide moieties, while the additionof 4-dimethylaminopyridine resulted in the quantitative regenerationof the former Ni complexes. The corresponding interconversion alsooccurred between (SPoxIm)Ni(& eta;(2):& eta;(2)-diphenyldivinylsilane) and {& kappa;-C-Ni(& eta;(2):& eta;(2)-diene)}(& mu;-anti-SPoxIm){& kappa;-O-Al(C6F5)(3)} via the coordination and dissociation of Al(C6F5)(3). The shape and size of the spacearound the Ni(0) center was drastically changed through this Lewis-acid-mediatedinterconversion. Moreover, the multinuclear NMR, IR, and XAS analysesof the aforementioned carbonyl complexes clarified the details ofthe changes in the electronic states on the Ni centers; i.e., theelectron delocalization was effectively enhanced among the Ni atomand CO ligands in the heterobimetallic Ni/Al species. The resultspresented in this work thus provide a strategy for reversibly modulatingboth the electronic and spatial environment of organometallic complexes,in addition to the well-accepted Lewis-base-mediated ligand-substitutionmethods.
