A dinitrosyl iron complex as a platform for metal-bound imidazole to N-heterocyclic carbene conversion.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An N-alkyl imidazole bearing a neutral {Fe(NO)2}(10) dinitrosyliron complex (DNIC) when treated with sodium t-butoxide undergoes base-promoted conversion to the N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-DNIC, while maintaining the Fe(NO)2 unit intact. Subsequent alkylation led to the isolation of the NHC-DNIC product; further nitrosylation led to trinitrosyl (NHC)Fe(NO)3(+). Both were isolated and structurally characterized.

Chelation assistance as a tool for the selective preparation of an imidazole-based mesoionic palladium carbene complex.
A C(4)-bound palladium-N-heterocyclic carbene (4) was selectively obtained from the C(2)-unsubstituted imidazolium salt 3. The higher stability of the C(4) versus the C(2)-bound carbene complex due to pyridine chelation assistance allowed this mesoionic compound to be obtained.

The photophysical and photochemical properties of the new tricarbonyl rhenium(I) complexes bound to N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (NHC), fac-[Re(CO)3(N^C)X] (N^C = 1-phenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)imidazole or 1-quinolinyl-3-(2-pyridyl)imidazole; X = Cl or Br), are reported. The photophysics of these complexes highlight phosphorescent emission from triplet metal-to-ligand ((3)MLCT) excited states, typica...
متن کاملPiano-Stool Iron(II) Complexes as Probes for the Bonding of N-Heterocyclic Carbenes: Indications for π-Acceptor Ability
A series of new piano-stool iron(II) complexes comprising monoand bidentate chelating N-heterocyclic carbene ligands [Fe(cp)(CO)(NHC)(L)]X have been prepared and analyzed by spectroscopic, electrochemical, crystallographic, and theoretical methods. Selectively substituting the L site with a series of ligands going from carbene to pyridine to CO suggests that CO is the strongest π acceptor, whil...
متن کاملN-Heterocyclic Carbene-Like Catalysis by a Metal−Organic Framework Material
Metal imidazolates, an important class of constructs in metal−organic framework chemistry, are shown here to be precursors to N-heterocyclic carbene-like catalysts. By using n-butyl lithium to deprotonate tripodal imidazolate framework-1 (TIF-1), N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) sites can be exposed. These sites are found to be remarkably competent as Brønsted-base-type NHC catalysts. An α,β-unsatu...
متن کاملPhotophysical and photochemical trends in tricarbonyl rhenium(I) N-heterocyclic carbene complexes.
A family of tricarbonyl Re(I) complexes of the formulation fac-[Re(CO)3(NHC)L] has been synthesized and characterized, both spectroscopically and structurally. The NHC ligand represents a bidentate N-heterocyclic carbene species where the central imidazole ring is substituted at the N3 atom by a butyl, a phenyl, or a mesityl group and substituted at the N1 atom by a pyridyl, a pyrimidyl, or a q...
