The Bridged Binding Mode as a New, Versatile Template for the Selective Activation of Carbon−Fluorine Bonds in Fluoroolefins: Activation of Trifluoroethylene

Abstract: We report the selective activation of carbon-fluorine bonds in trifluoroethylene using the diiridium complex [Ir(2)(CH(3))(CO)(2)(dppm)(2)][OTf] (1). Coordination of trifluoroethylene in a bridging position between the two metals in 1 results in facile fluoride ion loss in three different ways. Attack by strong fluorophiles such as Me(3)SiOTf and HOTf results in F(-) removal from one of the geminal fluorines to give the cis-difluorovinyl-bridged product [Ir(2)(CH(3))(OTf)(CO)(2)(μ-κ(1):η(2)-C(F)═CFH)(dppm)(2)]… Show more

“…The 31 P{ 1 H} NMR spectrum of 3 at À10 8C contains two resonances (characteristic of an AA'BB' spin system) at d = 13.0 and À7.8 ppm, showing mutual coupling (J PP = 24.7 Hz). This pattern is indicative of two chemical environments for the pairs of 31 P nuclei, and effectively rules out the bridged k 1 :h 2 binding mode for the fluorovinyl unit, which should give rise to four 31 P resonances, by virtue of both the "top/bottom" and "left/right" asymmetry that would arise with this bridging arrangement (for an example, see reference [16]). The two 1 H resonances observed for the methylene groups in the dppm ligand (at d = 4.51 and 3.54 ppm) also argue against a bridging C 2 F 3 group, which would be expected to give rise to four chemically inequivalent methylene protons.…”

“…(3), accompanied by the formation of trimethylsilylfluoride. In the original report on this product, [9d] we assumed a bridging k 1 :h 2 coordination mode for the trifluorovinyl group, as has been established for the cis-difluorovinyl group in [ [16] However, further NMR studies suggest that in 3 the trifluorovinyl group is terminally bound to one metal, as shown in Scheme 2.…”
