Evidence for a Trajectory of Hydrolytic Reactions brought about by [L3Zn−OH] Species

Abstract: A kinetic study has been performed on the hydrolytic cleavage of various triorganophosphates PO-(OR) 2 (OR') by three pyrazolylborate ± zinc hydroxide complexes [Tp'Zn À OH] to form [Tp'Zn À OPO(OR) 2 ] and HOR'. The nature of the reactions (first order both in the zinc complex and the phosphate) and the strongly negative activation entropies (À 54 to À 126 J mol) indicate an intimate association of the ZnÀOH and PO functions in the rate-determining step. Some ester cleavages by [Tp'Zn À OH] show the same kine… Show more

“…[337][338][339][340][341][342] These tripodal ligands bind Zn II in a tetrahedral geometry and reduce the pK a of the fourth aqua ligand to ~6.5. 343 More importantly, the hydrophobic pocket, created by the pyrazole rings and the substituents at the 3-position, prevents the zinc ion from bridging two molecules of the ligand or a proton from bridging two zinc-containing complexes.…”

“…Certain Zn(II) catalysts bind simple anionic ligands with a concomitant increase in coordination number while other Zn(II) complexes do not. [34][35][36] Such differences in binding interactions will depend on the flexibility of the multidentate or macrocyclic ligands in accommodating different Zn(II) complex coordination numbers and geometries.…”

“…Several computational studies have considered the details of this process, [2][3][4] and one of us has recently published structural evidence for the corresponding reaction trajectory. 5 While one would assume that in passing through the intermediate A, the Zn-O 1 bond is broken and the Zn-O 2 bond is formed, i.e. hydroxide is the leaving group, experimental proof for this reaction course is still missing.…”
