Single-Component, Photocatalytic H2 Production Through Acceptorless Alcohol Dehydrogenation: Atypical Metal-Ligand Cooperativity in a Ruthenium(II)-PN/P Complex
Abstract:Metal-ligand cooperativity (MLC) involving reversible aromatization/dearomatization of pyridine-derived pincer ligands is considered important in acceptorless (de)hydrogenation for dihydrogen generation and storage. Dehydrohalogenation of pyridine-derived pincer ruthenium complexes often leads to dearomatized moieties. Thus, we were surprised to find an aromatized kappa-3-NCP binding mode in [{LutP`}Ru(CO)(H)(PPh3)] (2) upon dehydrohalogenation of the lutidine-derived PN/P complex [{LutP}Ru(CO)(Cl)(H)(PPh3)] (… Show more
