Isolation of a uranium(III) benzophenone ketyl radical that displays redox-active ligand behaviour.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The first uranium(III) charge separated ketyl radical complex, Tp*2U(OC·Ph2), has been isolated and characterized by infrared, (1)H NMR, and electronic absorption spectroscopies, along with X-ray crystallography. Tp*2U(OC·Ph2) is a potent two-electron reductant towards N3Mes (Mes = 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) and (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-piperidin-1-yl)oxyl (TEMPO), with reducing equivalents derived from the metal centre and the redox-active benzophenone.

Structural and spectroscopic characterization of a charge-separated uranium benzophenone ketyl radical complex.
The reaction of [((t-Bu)ArO) 3tacn)U (III)] ( 1) with 4,4'-di- tert-butylbenzophenone affords a unique isolable U(IV) ketyl radical species [((t-Bu)ArO) 3tacn)U (IV)(OC* (t-Bu)Ph 2)] (2) supported by XRD data, magnetization measurements, and DFT calculations. Isolation and full characterization of the corresponding diphenyl methoxide complex [((t-Bu)ArO) 3tacn)U (IV)(OCH ( t-Bu )Ph 2)] (3) is a...
متن کاملAfter 118 years, the isolation of two common radical anion reductants as simple, stable solids.
Two common radical anion reductants, potassium benzophenone ketyl (K(Ph(2)CO)) and potassium naphthalenide (K(2)(C(10)H(8))(2)(THF)), have been isolated and characterized for the first time in solvent-free form or with low solvent content, allowing their use as pure solid reactants in preparative redox chemistry in accurate stoichiometric amounts.
متن کاملOxidation state delineation via U L(III)-edge XANES in a series of isostructural uranium coordination complexes.
We present an X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) study of a series of uranium coordination complexes that possess nearly identical first coordination spheres and geometries in a range of oxidation states from U(III) to U(VI). These compounds were obtained through the activation of small molecules, such as ketones, azides, and carbon dioxide, and upon oxidation of a high-valent U(V)≡O ...

The present work describes the studies on the coordination behaviour of 4[N-(benzalidene) amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (BAAPS) (I), 4[N-(furfural)amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (FFAAPS) (II) and 4[N-(cinnamalidene)amino]antipyrine semicarbazone (CAAPS) (III) in presence of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or diphenyl sulfoxide (DPSO) towards Th4+ and UO22+ salts. All the complexes were isolate...
متن کاملSubstituent effect on the photoreduction kinetics of benzophenone.
The kinetics of the photoreduction of four benzophenone derivatives by isopropyl alcohol was examined in acetonitrile, namely, tetra-meta-trifluoromethyl-, di-para-trifluoromethyl-, di-para-methoxy benzophenone, and, for comparison, the unsubstituted molecule itself. The basic spectroscopic (absorption and phosphorescence spectra) and photophysical (quantum yields and excited state energies) pr...
