Generation of a Hydroperoxidochromium Complex from Nitratochromium(III) Ions and Hydrogen Peroxide

Abstract: Accelerated substitution at chromium(III) in CraqONO22+ provides the basis for a novel route to the corresponding hydroperoxidochromium complex in aqueous solutions. Despite the great concentration advantage of water, the reaction of CraqONO22+ with 10–100 mM H2O2 generates >50 % yields of CraqOOH2+, which makes this reaction useful for preparative purposes, and may also represent a potential source of high‐valent chromium in biological environments. In a minor, parallel path, small concentrations of a superox… Show more

“…The labilization of one or more positions at the metal, most likely the four cis sites, 75,76 allows H 2 O 2 to coordinate and form the mixed nitrato/peroxo intermediate I followed by the release of nitrate. If this mechanism is correct, then it follows that the hydroperoxo group must have even stronger cis-labilizing properties than nitrate does or else the proportion of coordinated hydroperoxide could not be much greater than its proportion in solution, i.e., e0.2%, in stark contrast to the experimental yield of >50%.…”

“…Even if the substitution could be accelerated, as in complexes with cis-labilizing ligands, the yields of the peroxo/hydroperoxo product in aqueous solutions would be expected to be negligibly small, given that H 2 O 2 and H 2 O compete for the labile position(s), and water is a better Lewis base and is present at much higher concentrations. Despite these arguments, it was recently discovered that Cr aq OOH 2+ can be generated in 50−60% yield from Cr aq ONO 2 2+ or Cr aq O 2 CCH 3 2+ and 10−100 mM H 2 O 2 in acidic water, as shown in eq . A few percent of Cr aq OO 2+ was also generated.…”

“…Since both CrOOH 2þ (aq) and CrOO 2þ (aq) can act as precursors of genotoxic Cr V , these results may have implications for the toxicology of ostensibly benign Cr III in the presence of physiological peroxide and environmental nitrate or other potentially bidentate ligands. 129 A corollary of the proposed nitrato cis activation mechanism is that other potentially bidentate ligands such as RCO 2 À , SO 4 2À , SO 3 2À (if O-bonded), and CO 3 2À should activate cis ligands in Cr III complexes, which are predisposed to associative processes, though probably not in Co III analogues, which are not. Indeed, attempts to make Cr III analogues of the familiar Co(NH 3 ) 5 OCO 2 þ and Co(NH 3 ) 4 (O 2 CO) þ salts yield only Cr(OH) 3 , and efforts in the writer's laboratory to make Cr(NH 3 ) 5 SO 4 þ have been unsuccessful.…”

“…In our earlier studies , of the reactivity of Cr aq OOH 2+ , we have focused on reactions with oxygen-atom acceptors , 1-e reductants , and coordinating anions , . In every instance, the self-decomposition of Cr aq OOH 2+ was much slower than the reaction of interest, but several observations suggested that high-valent chromium species were involved as intermediates in the slow background decay.…”
