  1. Bonding to Olefins, Polyolefins and Alkynes Phan Nguyen HuuTrong 201351014

  2. Contents: • Olefineand polyolefin complexes • Alkenes • Dienes • Allyls • Cyclobutadienes • Cyclopentadienes • Arenes • Alkyne complexes

  3. Olefins & polyolefins complexes

  4. Zeise’s salt Zeise’s reaction • Both, Cl- ion and ethylene are coordinated with Platinum ion, hence inside the coordinations sphere

  5. Zeise’s salt • The PtCl3 moiety forms a nearly planar group with Pt atom. • Pt-Cl bond trans to ethylene group (2.34 Ao) is significantly longer than cis Pt-Cl bonds (2.302 and 2.303 Ao). • C atoms are approximately equidistant from the Pt atom (2.128 and 2.135 Ao). • Back-bonding is also indicated by a bending of the four hydrogen atoms away from the Pt atom.

  6. Dewar-Chatt model • Donation of C=C π electrons to an empty d orbital on the metal. • Back donation from a metal d π orbital into the empty π* orbital of the ligand.

  7. Alkene complexes • Factors favoring X2-type binding • Strong donor ligands • A net negative charge on the complex • Low-oxidation state metals • Reactivity differnece: • L-type: alkene is electrodeficient and prone to attack by nucleophiles • X2-type: the carbons are carbanion-like and prone to attack by electrophiles.

  8. Alkene complexes • Both cases considered as a 2e donor in the covalent model. • In the ionic model, X2 has a 2- charge and considered a 4e donor. • One can consider L as an intermediate structure in the oxidative addition of alkeneligand to form X2 • The C atoms of the alkenerehybridize close to sp3

  9. Dienes complexes • 4e donor • The substituents at C1 and C4 twist approximately 20o-30o out of the plane • C1 and C4 are closer to the metal

  10. Dienes complexes Fe(4-C4H6)(CO)3 -donation from alkenes to the Fe weaken and lengthen the C=C bond Zr complex, the single bond is quite shorter a bit. Zr is electron-rich that it transfers two electrons to butadiene via π-backdonation and generate metallocyclopentene.

  11. Electrons effects • The more π-backbonding the weaker C=C bond and lower the C=C stretching frequency in IR. • Ag+ complex is believed no π-backbonding

  12. Metal-olefin bond strenth

  13. Allyl complexes

  14. Allyl complexes

  15. Cyclobutadien • Cyclobutadien is too unstable to exist, highly reactive, antiaromatic and rectangular. • But the ligand is square and aromatic. • Receiving 2e from the metal to form 6πe aromatic system

  16. Cyclopentadienyl complexes • Cyclopentadienyl group is important because it is the most firmly bond and most inert to electrophilic and nucleophilic reagent. • This makes a whole series of complexes CpMLn (n = 2, 3, 4) Ferrocenes

  17. Cyclopentadienyl complexes

  18. Mono-cyclopentadienyl complexes • Exist for every transition metal. • Structure of half-sandwich complexes is often described as “piano stool” geometry.

  19. Metallocenes 0.06 Ao longer than in ferrocene. Highly sensitive to air. Oxidation give [CoCp2]+ is much more stable Triplet ground state. Cr-C bond 0.11 Ao longer than in ferrocene 20e- complex 0.13 Ao longer than in ferrocene.

  20. Bent sandwich complexes • Bent metallocene complexes are restricted to metals with a low number of d-electrons those of group 4 and of the heavier elements of groups 5-7

  21. Arene complexes • Arenes usually bind to transition metals in 6e, 6 form, but 4 and 2 structures are also known. • C-C distances are usually essentially equal, but slightly longer than in the free arene. • Arenes are much more reactive than Cp group, so easily lost from the metal.

  22. Arene complexes 6 tends to be flat. 2 4 is strongly folded

  23. Bis-Arene complexes • Synthesis from atomic metal vapor by co-condensation : • Ligands are no negatively charged, • Bis-arene complexes are in general less stable than metallocenes and more eaisly oxidized

  24. ALKYNES COMPLEXES

  25. Alkyne complexes • Alkynes are essentially like alkenes • One more pair of π-electrons. • They can act as neutral 2 or 4e- donors. • Much better bridging ligands.

  26. Alkyne complexes • More electronegative, encourage back donation and bind more strongly • The substituents tend to fold back away from metal by 30o-40o in the complex • M-C distances are slightly shorter than alkenes

  27. Bridging metal alkyne complexes

  28. Tautomerization

  29. Benzyne complexes

  30. Reactivity of alkynes
