Sites of Electron Transfer Reactivity in Organometallic Compounds

Abstract: Three essentially different sites are identified for redox activity in organometallic compounds: The metal, the organometallic (C‐bonded) ligand(s), and potentially noninnocent co‐ligands. Typical reactivity patterns resulting from either of these alternatives will be pointed out by means of representative examples, possibly involving unusual metal oxidation states, carbon‐centered radicals, or ligand redox systems.

“…Throughout the history of metallo-organic compounds, this field of research has often been associated with the concept of free radicals. For example, organic compounds of alkali metals or other electropositive elements have long been used to generate persistent or active organic radicals through formal metal–carbon bond cleavage, which have been applied in electronics, materials, pharmaceuticals, and petrochemicals, etc . Organic compounds, as the building blocks of organic semiconductor devices, play key roles in realizing electron transport and optoelectronic properties .…”

“…Currently, the coordination chemistry of redox-active compounds is attracting a lot of attention from various research groups worldwide [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Such growing attention is caused by the fact that unlike "classical" ligands, redox-active ones significantly expand the range of redox transitions in their complexes and the number of different electronic states associated with combinations of oxidized (reduced) forms of redox-active ligands and the central metal atom.…”

“…[24][25][26] The incorporation of redox responsive ligand motif can govern multielectron/multiproton processes that are capable of emulating the chemistry which is often done with less abundant, expensive and toxic 4d or 5d transition metals. [27][28][29] Donohoe's group showcased the preparation of cyclohexane by annulation of pentamethyl acetophenone and 1,5-pentanediols employing an iridium catalyst, [Cp*IrCl 2 ] 2 . 30,31 We demonstrate in this report that a nickel catalyst, which is heavily assisted by 2e -/2H + process of an azo/hydrazo redox-couple can perform such annulation reactions efficiently.…”
