Reactions of α- and β-diimine quinoline aldoximes with Mn(I) and Re(I) tricarbonyl halides afford quinoline oxime complexes. Both Mn(I) and Re(I) complexes experience severe geometric strain due to ligand steric interactions: 6-membered metallocycles exhibit more pronounced distortions than 5-membered ones, consistent with density functional theory structural analyses. Such distortions likely also affect reactivity patterns, as evidenced by Re(I)-induced deoximation of a quinoline variant containing a CF-ketoxime.

ConspectusPhotocatalytic CO reduction is a critical objective in the field of artificial photosynthesis because it can potentially make a total solution for global warming and shortage of energy and carbon resources. We have successfully developed various highly efficient, stable, and selective photocatalytic systems for CO reduction using transition metal complexes as both photosensitizers and catalysts. The molecular architectures for constructing selective and efficient photocatalytic systems for CO reduction are discussed herein.

A bifunctional cholic acid-bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amine (bpa) ligand featuring an amide linker was coordinated to a manganese(i) or rhenium(i) tricarbonyl moiety to give [M(bpacholamide)(CO)3] with M = Mn, Re in good yield and very high purity. Strong antibacterial activity was observed against four strains of methicillin-susceptible (MSSA) and methicillin-resistant (MRSA) Staphylococcus aureus, with minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) in the range of 2-3.5 μM.

This work examines the relative reactivities of Re and Mn tricarbonyl pyridine-2,6-bis-N-heterocyclic carbene pincers M(CO)CNCX (M = Re, Mn and X = Cl and Br) towards catalysis for the electrochemical conversion of CO to CO. Unlike prior well-studied group VII catalysts, Mn(CO)CNCX is extraordinarily active, while the new Re(CO)CNCX complex surprisingly does not exhibit catalytic response. DFT calculations shed light on this puzzling behavior and show that the redox-active pyridine-2,6-bis-N-heterocyclic carbene ligand facilitates the reduction of the ground-state complexes; however, the extent of electronic delocalization in the reduced intermediates differs in the degree of metalloradical character.

Metal Hydride Vibrations: The Trans Effect of the Hydride.

-Dihydride complexes are important in many homogeneous catalytic processes. Here vibrational spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) methods are used for the first time to reveal that 4d and 5d metals transmit more effectively than the 3d metals influence of the ligand trans to the hydride and also couple the motions of the -hydrides more effectively. This property of the metal is linked to higher hydride reactivity.

CO capture at low concentration by catalysts is potentially useful for developing photocatalytic and electrocatalytic CO reduction systems. We investigated the CO-capturing abilities of two complexes, -Mn(Xbpy)(CO)(OCHCHNR) and -Re(Xbpy)(CO)(OCHCHNR) (Xbpy = 4,4'-X-2,2-bipyridine and R = -CHCHOH), which work as efficient catalysts for CO reduction. Both complexes could efficiently capture CO even from Ar gas containing only low concentration of CO such as 1% to be converted into -M(Xbpy)(CO)(OC(O)OCHCHNR) (M = Mn and Re).
