Metal-catalyzed C-N bond formation reactions via acylnitrene transfer have recently attracted much attention, but direct detection of the proposed acylnitrenoid/acylimido M(NCOR) (R=aryl or alkyl) species in these reactions poses a formidable challenge. Herein, we report on Ru(NCOR) intermediates in C-N bond formation catalyzed by [Ru (Por)Cl ]/N COR, a catalytic method applicable to aziridine/oxazoline formation from alkenes, amination of substituted indoles, α-amino ketone formation from silyl enol ethers, amination of C(sp )-H bonds, and functionalization of natural products and carbohydrate derivatives (up to 99 % yield). Experimental studies, including HR-ESI-MS and EPR measurements, coupled with DFT calculations, lend evidence for the formulation of the Ru(NCOR) acylnitrenoids as a Ru -imido species.

The transformation of acid chlorides (RC(O)Cl) to organic nitriles (RC[triple bond]N) by the terminal niobium nitride anion [N[triple bond]Nb(N[Np]Ar)3]- ([1a-N]-, where Np = neopentyl and Ar = 3,5-Me2C6H3) via isovalent N for O(Cl) metathetical exchange is presented. Nitrido anion [1a-N]- is obtained in a heterodinuclear N2 scission reaction employing the molybdenum trisamide system, Mo(N[R]Ar)3 (R = t-Bu, 2a; R = Np, 2b), as a reaction partner. Reductive scission of the heterodinuclear bridging N2 complexes, (Ar[R]N)3Mo-(mu-N2)Nb(N[Np]Ar)3 (R = t-Bu, 3b; R = Np, 3c) with sodium amalgam provides 1 equiv each of the salt Na[1a-N] and neutral N[triple bond]Mo(N[R]Ar)3 (R = t-Bu, 2a-N; R = Np, 2b-N).

Nitride NW(N[i-Pr]Ar)3 (1, Ar = 3,5-C6H3Me2) was synthesized in two steps from known NW(O-t-Bu)3 (41% overall yield). Complex 1 is the tungsten congener of NMo(N[i-Pr]Ar)3, a known molecule that has been synthesized using N2 as the nitrido nitrogen source, but which undergoes no reaction with pivaloyl chloride. Compound 1 undergoes metathesis with pivaloyl chloride at 25 degrees C to form the corresponding nitrile in 97% yield.

Interaction of Re(N)L(2) [L = N(PSPh(2))(2)] 1 with (CF(3)CO)(2)O or RCOCl afforded air-sensitive acylimido-Re(V) complexes trans-Re[NC(O)CF(3)](OCOCF(3))L(2) 2 or trans-Re[NC(O)R]ClL(2) (R = CCl(2)H 3, CClH(2) 4, CH(3) 5), respectively. Treatment of 1 with (CX(3)CO)(2)O followed by recrystallization from CH(2)Cl(2)/hexane in air led to the formation of the corresponding parent imido complexes trans-Re(NH)(OCOCX(3))L(2) (X = F 6, Cl 7). The structure of 7 has been characterized by X-ray crystallography.
