Methanediide Formation via Hydrogen Elimination

چکیده
Substituted bis(iminophosphoranyl)methanes are CH acidic compounds that can form 15 complexes with formally dianionic central carbon centres. The reaction of H2C(Ph2P=NDip)2 (≡ 16 H2L), Dip = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl, with one equivalent of di-n-butylmagnesium afforded the 17 methanide complex [HLMgnBu] 1. Treatment of complex 1 with phenylsilane in aromatic solvents 18 at elevated temperatures afforded the methanediide complex [(LMg)2] 2 presumably via the MgH 19 intermediate [(HLMgH)n] (n = 1 or 2). The reaction of 1 with LiAlH4 in diethyl ether yielded the 20 AlH complex [HLAlH2] 3. Alternatively, this complex was also obtained from the reaction of H2L 21 with AlH3∙NMe3. The molecular structures of [HLMgnBu] 1, [(LMg)2] 2, and [HLAlH2] 3 are 22 reported. Complex 3 shows no sign of H2 elimination to a methanediide species at elevated 23 temperatures in contrast to the facile elimination of the putative reaction intermediate [(HLMgH)n] 24 (n = 1 or 2) to form [(LMg)2] 2. The chemical properties of complex 2 were investigated and this 25 complex appears to be stable against coordination with strong donor molecules. 26

متن کاملReversible stepwise mechanism involving a carbanion intermediate in the elimination of ammonia from L-histidine catalyzed by histidine ammonia-lyase.
L-Histidine labeled with deuterium at the C-5' position of the imidazole ring, L-[5'-2H]histidine (His-5'-D), was used as a probe for investigating a stepwise reversible mechanism via a carbanion intermediate in the elimination of ammonia catalyzed by histidine ammonia-lyase (EC 4.3.1.3). The labeled L-histidine (His-5'-D) (2.45 mM) was incubated with histidine ammonia-lyase (200 units) from Ps...
متن کاملFormation of S-nitrosothiols via direct nucleophilic nitrosation of thiols by peroxynitrite with elimination of hydrogen peroxide.
Peroxynitrite (ONOO-), a potent oxidant formed by reaction of nitric oxide (NO.) with superoxide anion, can activate guanylyl cyclase and is able to induce vasodilation or inhibit platelet aggregation and leukocyte adhesion, via thiol-dependent formation of NO. Reaction of ONOO- with thiols is thought to proceed through formation of a S-nitrothiol (thionitrate; RSNO2) intermediate and yields lo...

متن کاملA combined crossed molecular beams and ab initio investigation on the formation of vinylsulfidoboron (C₂H₃¹¹B³²S).
We exploited crossed molecular beams techniques and electronic structure calculations to provide compelling evidence that the vinylsulfidoboron molecule (C2H3(11)B(32)S) - the simplest member of hitherto elusive olefinic organo-sulfidoboron molecules (RBS) - can be formed via the gas phase reaction of boron monosulfide ((11)B(32)S) with ethylene (C2H4) under single collision conditions. The rea...
