Coupling of terminal iridium nitrido complexes†

Syntheses and electronic structures of μ-nitrido bridged pyridine, diimine iridium complexes.

The syntheses and X-ray crystal structures of dinuclear μ-azido and μ-nitrido bridged iridium complexes bearing the pyridine, diimine ligand (PDI) are reported. Their electronic structures and formal oxidation states of the metal centers are analyzed by theoretical and experimental methods, revealing the non-innocence of the PDI and nitrido ligands.

Synthesis of a chloro protected iridium nitrido complex.

Intramolecular activation processes of vulnerable ligand C-H bonds frequently limit the thermal stability and accessibility of late transition metal complexes with terminal metal nitrido units. In this study chloro substitution of the 2,6-ketimine N-aryl substituents (2,6-C(6)H(3)R(2), R = Cl) of the pyridine, diimine ligand is probed to increase the stability of square-planar iridium nitrido c...

nitrido complexes of ruthenium and osmium

Ru=O complexes have been demonstrated to be competent oxidants for oxidation of saturated hydrocarbons and epoxidat ion of alkenes . Photoexcitation of transdioxoosmium(V1) gives rise to super-oxidizing complexes having EO >2.2 V vs. n.h.e.. Some cationic RuZN and OsZN complexes are good model system for study of the mechanism of metalcatalysed oxidation of ammonia to nitrite and activation of ...

Highly electrophilic (salen)ruthenium(VI) nitrido complexes.

A series of cationic ruthenium(VI) nitrido species containing the cyclohexyl-bridged salen ligand (L) and its derivatives, [RuVI(N)(L)]+, have been prepared by treatment of [NBun4][RuVI(N)Cl4] with H2L in methanol. The structure of [RuVI(N)(L)](ClO4) (1a) has been determined by X-ray crystallography, d(RuN) = 1.592 A. In solvents such as DMF or DMSO, [RuVI(N)(L)]+ undergoes a facile N...N coupl...
