    Reversible N‐heterocyclic carbene‐induced α‐H abstraction in Tungsten(VI) imido dialkyl dialkoxide complexes
    (2020) Musso, Janis V.; Benedikter, Mathis J.; Wang, Dongren; Frey, Wolfgang; Altmann, Hagen J.; Buchmeiser, Michael R.
    The first reversible N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) induced α‐H abstraction in tungsten(VI) imido‐dialkyl dialkoxide complexes is reported. Treatment of W(NAr)(CH2Ph)2(OtBu)2 (Ar=2,6‐dichlorophenyl, 2,6‐dimethylphenyl, 2,6‐diisopropylphenyl) with different NHCs leads to the formation of complexes of the type W(NAr)(CHPh)(NHC)(CH2Ph)(OtBu) in excellent isolated yields of up to 96 %. The highly unusual release of the tert‐butoxide ligand as tBuOH in the course of the reaction was observed. The formed alkylidene complexes and tBuOH are in an equilibrium with the NHC and the dialkyl complexes. Reaction kinetics were monitored by 1H NMR spectroscopy. A correlation between the steric and electronic properties of the NHC and the reaction rates was observed. Kinetics of a deuterium‐labeled complex in comparison to its non‐deuterated counterpart revealed the presence of a strong primary kinetic isotope effect (KIE) of 4.2, indicating that α‐H abstraction is the rate‐determining step (RDS) of the reaction.

    Chromium(VI) bisimido dichloro, bisimido alkylidene, and chromium(V) bisimido iodo N‐heterocyclic carbene complexes
    (2020) Panyam, Pradeep K. R.; Stöhr, Laura; Wang, Dongren; Frey, Wolfgang; Buchmeiser, Michael R.
    Reaction of CrCl2(N-tBu)2 with 1,3-dimethylimidazol-2-ylidene (IMe), 1,3-dimethyl-4,5-dichloroimidazol-2-ylidene (IMeCl2), 1,3-di(2-propyl)imidazol-2-ylidene (IPr), 1,3-dimesitylimidazol-2-ylidene (IMes) and 1,3-bis(2,6-(2-Pr)2C6H3)imidazol-2-ylidene (IDipp) yields the corresponding N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) adducts CrCl2(IMe)(N-tBu)2 (1), CrCl2(IMeCl2)(N-tBu)2 (2), CrCl2(IPr)(N-tBu)2 (3), CrCl2(IMes)(N-tBu)2 (4) and CrCl2(IDipp)(N-tBu)2 (5). Likewise, reaction of CrCl2(N-2,6-(2-Pr)2C6H3)2 and CrCl2(N-adamantyl)2 with IMes yields CrCl2(N-2,6-(2-Pr)2C6H3)2(IMes) (6) and CrCl2(N-adamantyl)2(IMes) (7), respectively. Reaction of CrCl2(N-tBu)2 with the bidentate NHCs 1-R-3-(1-(2-LiO-C6H4))imidazol-2-ylidene yields the corresponding pentacoordinated Cr(VI) complexes CrCl2(1-R-3-(1-(2-O-C6H4))imidazol-2-ylidene)2C6H3)2(IMes) (R = 2,4,6-(CH3)3C6H2, 8), (R = tBu, 9), (R = 2-phenyl-C6H4, 10). Reaction of the chromium(VI) complex Cr(N-2,6-(2-Pr)2-C6H3)2(CH2C(CH3)3)2 with 1,3-dimethylimidazol-2-ylidene·AgI yields the bimetallic silver adduct of the chromium alkylidene complex (11) along with the tetrahedral chromium(V) complex CrI(N-2,6-(2-Pr)2-C6H3)2(1,3-dimethylimidazol-2-ylidene) (12). Compounds 1-4, 7, 9-12 were characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Finally, the chromium(VI) bisimido-amido complexes 13-14 bearing the N-6-(2-(diethylboryl)phenyl)pyridyl-2-yl-motif are reported.

    Cationic tungsten alkylidyne N‐heterocyclic carbene complexes : synthesis and reactivity in alkyne metathesis
    (2020) Hauser, Philipp M.; Ende, Melita van der; Groos, Jonas; Frey, Wolfgang; Wang, Dongren; Buchmeiser, Michael R.
    The first cationic and neutral tungsten alkylidyne N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes bearing one triflate ligand were synthesized and tested for their reactivity in alkyne metathesis. Both types of tungsten alkylidyne complexes display a higher productivity in alkyne metathesis than the analogous neutral tungsten alkylidyne NHC trisalkoxide complexes. Reaction of W(≡CC6H4OMe)(1,3‐bis(1‐hydroxy‐1,1‐trifluoromethylethyl)‐imidazol‐2‐ylidene)Cl (W18) with AgB(ArF)4 (ArF = 3,5‐bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl) resulted in the unexpected formation of, to the best of our knowledge, the first cationic ditungstatetrahedrane W2(1,3‐bis(1‐hydroxy‐1,1‐trifluoromethyl‐ethyl)‐imidazol‐2‐ylidene)2(MeCN)(µ‐((Ar)CC(Ar)))+ (B(ArF)4)- (W19, Ar = C6H4OMe), which suggests bimolecular decomposition as a possible decomposition pathway of cationic tungsten alkylidyne NHC complexes. Reaction of the cationic tungsten alkylidyne NHC complex W(≡CC6H4OMe)(1,3‐diisopropylimidazol‐2‐ylidene)(OC(CF3)2Me)2(NCtBu)+ (B(ArF)4)- (W7) with 1‐phenyl‐1‐propyne allowed for the isolation of a cationic tungstacyclobutadiene W(C3(Ph)(Me)(C6H4OMe))(1,3‐diisopropylimidazol‐2‐ylidene)(OC(CF3)2Me)2(NCtBu)+ (B(ArF)4)- (W20). Its formation strongly supports a cationic active species in the alkyne metathesis with tungsten alkylidyne NHC complexes.

    Synthetic and structural peculiarities of neutral and cationic molybdenum imido and tungsten oxo alkylidene complexes bearing weakly coordinating N‐heterocyclic carbenes
    (2024) Buchmeiser, Michael R.; Wang, Dongren; Schowner, Roman; Stöhr, Laura; Ziegler, Felix; Sen, Suman; Frey, Wolfgang
    The syntheses of the neutral molybdenum imido alkylidene N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes of the general formula [Mo(NAr)(CHCMe2Ph)(NHC)XY] (Ar=2-tBu-C6H4, 2-CF3-C6H4, 2,6-Me2-C6H3, 2,6-Cl2-C6H3, adamantyl; X, Y=OTf, OC(CF3)3, OCH(CF3)2, OC6F5, SC6F5, 2,5-bis(pentafluorophenyl)phen-1-yl) bearing electron-withdrawing NHCs (1,3-dimethyl-4,5-dichloroimidazol-2-ylidene (IMeCl2), 1,3,4-triphenyl-1,2,4-triazol-5-ylidene (TPT)) are reported. Complementary, the corresponding cationic molybdenum imido alkylidene NHC complexes of the general formula [Mo(NAr)(CHCMe2R)(NHC)X+][B(ArF)4−/Al(OC(CF3)3)4−] (R=Me, Ph; B(ArF)4-=tetrakis (3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)borate) have been prepared. Aiming at tungsten oxo complexes, reaction of [W(O)Cl2(CHCMe2Ph)(PMe2Ph)2] with [1,3-dimethyl-4,5-dichloroimidazol-2-ylidene⋅AgI] (IMeCl2⋅AgI) followed by the addition of lithium terphenoxide yields [W(O)(CHCMe2Ph)(IMeCl2)(DPPO)2]. For comparison, [W(O)Cl(CHCMe2Ph)(IMes)(OSi(OtBu)3)] was prepared via reaction of [W(O)Cl2(CHCMe2Ph)(PMe2Ph)(IMes)] with KOSi(OtBu)3. [W(O)(CHCMe2Ph)(IMeCl2)(DPPO)(Et2O)+][B(ArF)4−] (DPPO=2,6-diphenylphenoxide) became accessible via reaction of [W(O)(DPPO)2(CHCMe2Ph)(IMeCl2)] with anilinium B(ArF)4-. The structural peculiarities of selected complexes are reported. Benchmark ring-closing metathesis and homometathesis reactions revealed that the neutral complexes bearing weakly coordinating NHCs such as IMeCl2 and TPT possessed only moderate activity, which could, however, be improved by preparing the corresponding cationic metal alkylidene complexes.
