Expanding Rare-Earth Oxidation State Chemistry to Molecular Complexes of Holmium(II) and Erbium(II)

Abstract: The first molecular complexes of holmium and erbium in the +2 oxidation state have been generated by reducing Cp'(3)Ln [Cp' = C(5)H(4)SiMe(3); Ln = Ho (1), Er (2)] with KC(8) in the presence of 18-crown-6 in Et(2)O at -35 °C under argon. Purification and crystallization below -35 °C gave isomorphous [(18-crown-6)K][Cp'(3)Ln] [Ln = Ho (3), Er (4)]. The three Cp' ring centroids define a trigonal-planar geometry around each metal ion that is not perturbed by the location of the potassium crown cation near one rin… Show more

“…2 The expected structural changes between Y 3+ and Y 2+ complexes are well reproduced by the calculations. In addition, MPA analysis of the Y 2+ HOMOs was successful in correlating the percent metal and percent s character in the reduced molecules with their experimentally observed EPR hyperfine coupling constants, Table 6.…”

“…106 However, chemists never stopped pushing synthetic limits and, recently, low valent lanthanide chemistry has emerged as a fast developing field. [107][108][109] Recent advancements feature the synthesis and characterization of divalent lanthanide complexes for the complete lanthanide series, [110][111][112][113][114][115][116] reduced dinitrogen complexes, [117][118][119][120][121] reduced arene complexes, 26-29, 57, 122-126 and bimetallic reductive cleavage of aromatic C-H bonds. 40,44 Our group focused on the reduction chemistry of rare-earth metal complexes with non-innocent  ligands, followed by a small molecule activation study.…”

“…The authors proposed that it contains a lanthanum(II) ion. Recently, Evans extended this chemistry to almost all the lanthanides (Chart 10) (MacDonald et al, 2011;MacDonald et al, 2012;MacDonald et al, 2013a). The charge balance requires the lanthanide ion to be in +2 oxidation state.…”
