CO2 and SO2 activation by a Cr-Cr quintuple bond.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A quintuply bonded dichromium complex stabilized by aminopyridinato ligands activates CO2 and SO2 by reducing the (formal) bond order of the metal-metal bonds. Oxygen abstraction is observed during CO2 activation. SO2 activation proceeds via formation of a unique dithionite complex/coordination. Furthermore, N2O activation was investigated and the formation of a tetrameric Cr-oxo complex was observed.

Bond length and bond order in one of the shortest Cr-Cr bonds.
Multiconfigurational quantum chemical calculations on the R-diimines dichromium compound confirm that the Cr-Cr bond, 1.80 A, is among the shortest Cr(I)-Cr(I) bonds. However, the bond between the two Cr atoms is only a quadruple bond rather than a quintuple bond. The reason why the bond is so short has to be attributed to the strain in the NCCN ligand moieties.

Chromium-chromium quintuple bonds seem to be approaching the lower limit for their bond distances, and this computational density functional theory study tries to explore the geometrical and electronic factors that determine that distance and to find ways to fine-tune it via the ligand choice. While for monodentate ligands the Cr-Cr distance is predicted to shorten as the Cr-Cr-L bond angle inc...
متن کاملOn the analysis of the Cr-Cr multiple bond in several classes of dichromium compounds.
Since the discovery of a formal quintuple bond in Ar'CrCrAr' (CrCr = 1.835 A) by Power and co-workers in 2005, many efforts have been dedicated to isolating dichromium species featuring quintuple-bond character. In the present study we investigate the electronic configuration of several, recently synthesized dichromium species with ligands using nitrogen to coordinate the metal centers. The bim...
متن کاملRemarkably short metal-metal bonds: a lantern-type quintuply bonded dichromium(I) complex.
The field of quadruply bonded dinuclear complexes in which two metal atoms are embraced by eight ligands has been considered mature. The bonding and electronic structures of these compounds have been well understood, ever since the discovery of the first dimetal species containing a quadruple bond, [Re2Cl8] 2 , over 40 years ago. The quest for thermally stable and isolable dinuclear complexes w...
متن کاملPeculiarities of multiple Cr-Cr bonding. Insights from the analysis of domain-averaged Fermi holes.
The recently proposed methodology known as the analysis of domain-averaged Fermi holes was applied to reveal the nature and peculiarity of metal-metal bonding interactions in two recently reported complexes with an ultrashort, presumably quintuple Cr-Cr bond. The results of the analysis straightforwardly confirm the considerable reduction of the Cr-Cr bond order resulting from depletion of the ...
