C–H Activation of Pyrazolyl Ligands by Ru(II)

Abstract: Previously, hydridotris(pyrazolyl)borate (Tp) Ru(II) alkyl and aryl complexes of the type TpRu(L)(NCMe)R (R = methyl or aryl; L = charge-neutral two-electron donating ligand) were demonstrated to activate aromatic C-H bonds. To determine the impact of replacing the anionic Tp ligand with charge-neutral poly(pyrazolyl)alkane ligands, [(C(pz)4)Ru(P(OCH2)3CEt)(NCMe)Me][BAr'4] (pz = pyrazolyl, BAr'4 = tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate) was prepared. Heating a C6D6 solution of [(C(pz)4)Ru(P(OCH2)3CEt)(… Show more

“…Therefore, the non‐innocence of Tp in this transformation and the observation of deuterium incorporation into the Tp 4‐positions provides indirect evidence for the generation of D + during the H/D exchange process. These results also demonstrates that the pyrazolyl rings of Tp and related ligands are not necessarily innocent in C–H activation processes, as has been observed by others …”

“…Based on published examples (and unpublished results from our lab), replacing the anionic Tp ligand of [TpRu(L)(NCMe)Ph] complexes with a charge‐neutral PPA ligand was estimated to shift the Ru(III/II) redox potentials positive by approximately 0.3 to 0.4 V (Figure ) , , . The complexes [(PPA)Ru(BPhos)(NCMe)Ph] + {PPA = tris(3,5‐dimethylpyrazolyl)methane; HC(pz*) 3 or tris(5‐methylpyrazolyl)methane; HC(pz 5‐Me ) 3 } were prepared to explore catalytic ethylene hydrophenylation .…”

“…Since then isolation of different metal complexes with a wide range of structure and reactivity have been documented . These scorpionate ligands were extensively utilized as anionic σ‐donors and could coordinate most of the metals, including d‐ and f‐block elements of the Periodic Tableà, Many of the transition metal‐scorpionate complexes have found wide‐range of applications including enzyme mimicry, polymerizations, C–H activations, carbene, nitrene transfer reactions, aerobic oxidations, and a number of catalytic reactions . At a later stage, the sulfur donor analogues of pyrazolylborate ligands, namely hydro(trismethimazolyl)borate (Tm) was introduced by Reglinski .…”

“…One strategy to access more electron‐deficient Ru(II) catalyst precursors has been to prepare cationic variants of TpRu(L)(NCMe)Ph complexes (Scheme ). Replacement of Tp with a tetra(pyrazolyl)alkane resulted in intramolecular C–H activation of a pyrazolyl ring . Thus, the cationic Ru(II) complex was synthesized using HC(pz 5 ) 3 (HC(pz 5 ) 3 =tris(5‐methyl‐pyrazolyl)methane) in which the pyrazolyl 5‐positions are protected by incorporation of methyl substituents.…”
