Ruthenium–Triazene Complexes as Latent Catalysts for UV‐Induced ROMP

Abstract: Three novel ruthenium(II) complexes, RuX2(IMesH2)[N,N‐diethyl‐N′‐(2‐benzylidene)triazene] [IMesH2 = 1,3‐dimesitylimidazolin‐2‐ylidene; X = Cl– (2), CF3COO– (3), C6F5COO– (4)] are described. Single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis of compounds 2–4 revealed that the triazene ligand exists in the trans form and that the aryl‐connected nitrogen atom of the triazene binds to the ruthenium atom to form a five‐membered chelate ring. Compounds 2–4 were applied to the UV‐induced ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (… Show more

“…Generally speaking, different approaches to latent precatalysts have been reported for ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) so far. One entails the use of ruthenium alkylidene‐based precatalysts bearing strongly chelating groups at the alkylidene . These can be decoordinated thermally or under the action of UV‐light.…”

“…Buchmeiser and coworkers also reported a latent ROMP catalyst that was activated upon exposure to light . Triazene‐functionalized Ru complex 20 features a nitrogen atom directly connected to the aryl ring of the benzylidene ligand and thus effectively chelates the metal center in addition to providing further stabilization through resonance.…”

“…Further examples for N ‐chelating alkylidenes are found in the versatile class of Schiff base derivatives or Grela's more rigid quinoline systems . With a novel Ru–triazene complex, Buchmeiser and co‐workers made a contribution to these N ‐chelating systems ( 58 ). However, in this case, activation of the complex is achieved by irradiation with UV light.…”
