Metal-metal bonding in sterically frustrated dipalladium species.

چکیده
Stoichiometric-deficient lithiation of (2,6-diisopropylphenyl)(4-methylpyridin-2-yl)amine and reaction with [(cod)PdCl2] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) yield a dimeric Pd complex. X-ray structural analysis of this complex reveals a very short Pd-Pd distance (2.429 A). Topological analysis of the electron density and the electron localization function from scalar relativistic density functional theory calculations clearly indicate a Pd(I)-Pd(I) sigma-bonding interaction, for which the corresponding occupied localized orbital can be identified.

Active‐Metal Template Synthesis of a Halogen‐Bonding Rotaxane for Anion Recognition
The synthesis of an all-halogen-bonding rotaxane for anion recognition is achieved by using active-metal templation. A flexible bis-iodotriazole-containing macrocycle is exploited for the metal-directed rotaxane synthesis. Endotopic binding of a Cu(I) template facilitates an active-metal CuAAC iodotriazole axle formation reaction that captures the interlocked rotaxane product. Following copper-...
متن کاملCharge order at the frontier between the molecular and solid states in Ba3NaRu2O9.
We show that the valence electrons of Ba3NaRu2O9, which has a quasimolecular structure, completely crystallize below 210 K. Using an extended Hubbard model, we show that the charge ordering instability results from long-range Coulomb interactions. However, orbital ordering, metal-metal bonding, and formation of a partial spin gap enforce the magnitude of the charge separation. The striped charg...
متن کاملElectron-transfer studies of a peroxide dianion.
A peroxide dianion (O2(2-)) can be isolated within the cavity of hexacarboxamide cryptand, [(O2)⊂mBDCA-5t-H6](2-), stabilized by hydrogen bonding but otherwise free of proton or metal-ion association. This feature has allowed the electron-transfer (ET) kinetics of isolated peroxide to be examined chemically and electrochemically. The ET of [(O2)⊂mBDCA-5t-H6](2-) with a series of seven quinones,...
متن کاملThe Effect of Ligand Design on Metal Ion Spin State—Lessons from Spin Crossover Complexes
The relationship between chemical structure and spin state in a transition metal complex has an important bearing on mechanistic bioinorganic chemistry, catalysis by base metals, and the design of spin crossover materials. The latter provide an ideal testbed for this question, since small changes in spin state energetics can be easily detected from shifts in the spin crossover equilibrium tempe...
متن کاملOn the electronic impact of abnormal C4-bonding in N-heterocyclic carbene complexes.
Sterically similar palladium dicarbene complexes have been synthesized that comprise permethylated dicarbene ligands which bind the metal center either in a normal coordination mode via C2 or abnormally via C4. Due to the strong structural analogy of the complexes, differences in reactivity patterns may be attributed to the distinct electronic impact of normal versus abnormal carbene bonding, w...
