چکیده

The two-coordinate cationic Ni(I) bis-N-heterocyclic carbene complex [Ni(6-Mes)2]Br (1) [6-Mes =1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-2-ylidene] has been structurally characterized and displays a highly linear geometry with a C-Ni-C angle of 179.27(13)°. Density functional theory calculations revealed that the five occupied metal-based orbitals are split in an approximate 2:1:2 pattern. Significant magnetic anisotropy results from this orbital degeneracy, leading to single-ion magnet (SIM) behavior.

Iron(II) complexes of ditopic carbanionic carbenes.

Reaction of dimesityliron(II) (Fe2(mes)4) with the N-heterocyclic carbenes 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazol-2-ylidene (IPr) and 1,3-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)hexahydropyrimidin-2-ylidene (6-Xyl) afforded the novel trigonal planar complexes [Fe(IPr)(mes)2] (1) and [Fe(6-Xyl)(mes)2] (2), respectively. Both species were structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and display...

A two-coordinate nickel imido complex that effects C−H amination.

An exceptionally low coordinate nickel imido complex, (IPr*)Ni═N(dmp) (2) (dmp = 2,6-dimesitylphenyl), has been prepared by the elimination of N2 from a bulky aryl azide in its reaction with (IPr*)Ni(η6-C7H8) (1). The solid-state structure of 2 features two-coordinate nickel with a linear C−Ni−N core and a short Ni−N distance, both indicative of multiple-bond character. Computational studies us...

From betaines to anionic N-heterocyclic carbenes. Borane, gold, rhodium, and nickel complexes starting from an imidazoliumphenolate and its carbene tautomer

The mesomeric betaine imidazolium-1-ylphenolate forms a borane adduct with tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane by coordination with the phenolate oxygen, whereas its NHC tautomer 1-(2-phenol)imidazol-2-ylidene reacts with (triphenylphosphine)gold(I) chloride to give the cationic NHC complex [Au(NHC)2][Cl] by coordination with the carbene carbon atom. The anionic N-heterocyclic carbene 1-(2-phenolate)...

A new binuclear complex of [{NiCl(6-mbipy)}2(μ-Cl)2] (1) was prepared from the reaction of NiCl2.6H2O and 6-methyl-2,2'-bipyridine (6-mbipy)  in a mixture of methanol and acetonitrile. Suitable crystals of 1 for X-ray diffraction measurement were obtained by slow evaporation of the resulted green solution at room ...

N-heterocyclic phosphenium and phosphido nickel complexes supported by a pincer ligand framework.

A chelating diphosphine ligand with a central N-heterocyclic phosphenium cation (NHP(+)) has been used to explore the coordination chemistry of NHPs with nickel. Treatment of the chlorophosphine precursor [PPP]Cl (1) with stoichiometric Ni(COD)2 affords (PPP)NiCl (8), which is best described as a Ni(II)/NHP(-) phosphido complex formed via oxidative addition of the P-Cl bond. In contrast, treati...
