We report hitherto elusive side-on η2-bonded palladium(0) carbonyl (anthraquinone, benzaldehyde) and arene (benzene, hexa-fluorobenzene) palladium(0) complexes and present the catalytic hydrodefluorination of hexafluorobenzene by cyclohexene. The comparison with respective cyclohexene, pyridine and tetrahydrofuran complexes reveals that the experimental ligand binding strengths follow the order THF < C6H6 < C6F6 < cyclohexene < pyridine < benzaldehyde < anthraquinone. To understand this surprising order, the complexes' electronic structures were elucidated by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), single crystal X-Ray diffraction (sc-XRD), ultraviolet/visible (UV/Vis) electronic absorption, infrared (IR) vibrational, Pd L3-edge X-ray absorption (XAS), and X-ray photoelectron (XP) spectroscopic techniques, complemented by Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations including energy decomposition (EDA-NOCV) and effective oxidation state (EOS) analyses.

Electrocatalytic Anaerobic Oxidation of Benzylic Amines Enabled by Ferrocene-Based Redox Mediators.

The generation and functionalization of carbon- or nitrogen-centered radicals are of great interest for their potential synthetic utility. Here, we report the anaerobic electrocatalytic oxidation of two primary benzylic amines, benzylamine and 2-picolylamine, in the presence of a catalytic quantity of an electron deficient ferrocene derivative as a single-electron redox mediator. The use of the appropriate redox mediator prevented fouling of the electrode surface and significantly decreased the potential at which the catalytic oxidation reaction occurred.

Article Synopsis
  • - Organometallic oxidative addition complexes (OACs) are gaining attention as effective reagents for the selective modification of biomolecules by altering ligand and aryl properties to control reaction kinetics and regioselectivity.
  • - Researchers explored the use of bidentate Au(III) OACs with bulky and electron-deficient aryl substrates to successfully achieve selective -arylation using computational and experimental methods.
  • - The study successfully developed a protein-polymer OAC that performed rapid -arylation with designed ankyrin repeat proteins (DARPins) and various biologically relevant small molecules, paving the way for constructing complex biomolecular conjugates.

A macrocycle-based new organometallic nano-vessel towards sustainable C2-selective arylation of free indole in water.

C2-selectivity of unsubstituted indole over facile C3-substitution is attempted by utilizing the π-cavity of a nano-vessel made up of a palladium complex of an amino-ether heteroditopic macrocycle. Functional group tolerance (cyano, nitro, halo, ester, .), a broad substrate scope and outstanding selectivities with excellent yields (80-93%) of the desired products have been achieved in 12 h by maintaining all sustainable conditions like aqueous medium, recyclable catalyst, one-pot reaction, no external additives, mild temperature, .

Ir-catalyzed C-H borylations of fluorinated and cyanated arenes with high -to-F/CN are described. Use of a dipyridyl hydrazone framework as the ancillary ligand and pinacolborane (HBpin) as the functionalizing reagent generates catalysts that are significantly more active selective than 4,4'-di--butyl-2,2'-bipyridine (dtbpy) for both electron-deficient and electron-rich substrates. Investigation of the ligand framework resulted in the observation of formal -borylation of the hydrazone by HBpin, as evidenced by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography.
