N-Heterocycles
Published in Navjeet Kaur, Metals and Non-Metals, 2020
Another study by Kaneta et al. [210] reported alkyne co-trimerization reactions for the synthesis of isoindoline in moderate yields using Mortreux’s catalyst system derived from p-chlorophenol and Mo(CO)6. Mono-alkynes possessing o-hydroxyphenyl group provided trimerized products, while alkynes bearing m- or p-hydroxyphenyl group resulted in cross-alkyne metathesis products under these conditions. Under similar reaction conditions, the diyne underwent co-trimerization with many mono-alkynes to provide the cyclized product along with the by-product (Scheme 80) [211]. The isolation of the by-product indicated that this catalytic reaction occurred using molybdenacyclopentadiene complex. The yields of desired trimerized products improved when 15 eq. of monoalkyne was used. Absolute intramolecular [2+2+2]-cyclization reactions were also performed using similar catalyst systems [212].

Bunz et al. optimized the reaction conditions of the alkyne metathesis utilizing Mo(CO)6 and 4-chlorophenol by increasing the reaction temperature from 105°C to 130°C–150°C (see Scheme 6.25). And the reaction was performed with a purge of nitrogen to remove the formed 2-butyne. By this method, they obtained a polymer with a degree of polymerization of 180 (GPC). It was indicated that this reaction is competitive to the Pd-catalyzed coupling reaction.

The synthesis of 3 commenced with the preparation of the iodobenzene derivative 4 (Scheme 3), which was easily synthesized according to the route developed in our previous work [18]. Iodobenzene 4 was transformed into triyne 5 by Sonogashira cross coupling with triisopropylsilylacetylene (TIPSA) in acceptable yield. Subsequently, through reaction with excess sodium hydride (NaH) in toluene, the two hydroxyisopropyl groups in triyne 5 were removed in one pot, thus affording di-terminal alkyne 6 in excellent yield. Furthermore, the Sonogashira coupling of di-terminal alkyne 6 with 2-fold 2-iodo-5-methylthiophene proceeded smoothly to afford triyne thiophene 7 in moderate yield. Then, the triyne thiophene 7 was converted into the corresponding terminal alkynyl 8 in excellent yield by treatment with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF). Finally, followed by the similar CuI catalyzed chloride-to-alkyne metathesis for those related alkynylplatinum(II) terpyridyl complexes [19], the preparation of 3 was achieved in good yield through ligand exchange of terminal alkynyl 8 with [Pt(tpy)Cl](PF6).

Organo-imido complexes of transition metals have been researched widely because of their significance in numerous biological, industrial, and catalytic processes [1]. Researchers’ interest is evoked mainly by the ability of the metal-imido group (M = NR) to undergo a wide range of organic transformations, such as metathesis, cycloaddition, C–H bond activation, and hydroamination reactions [2–4]. In addition, imido ligands are frequently used as efficient ancillary ligands in organo-transition metal chemistry, for example, in olefin metathesis, and as polymerization catalysts [5–8]. Monoanionic imidazolin-2-iminato ligands, such as ImRN– (1), are often described by the two limiting resonance structures, 1A and 1B (Scheme 1), showing that the capacity of the imidazolium ring to stabilize a positive charge results in highly basic ligands [9] with strong electron-donating capacity toward early transition metals [10–13]. Since they are capable of donating 2σ and 4π-electrons, these ligands can be considered monodentate analogs of cyclopentadienyls, C5R5, as well as monoanionic imido ligands, similar to those described for related phosphoraneiminato ligands [14]. Tamm et al. were able to effectively apply this concept to introduce imidazolin-2-iminato ligands into transition metal, lanthanide, and recently, actinide metal chemistry, to accomplish very short M–N bonds. This led to further research into the multiple bonding characters between M–N bonds [15–33], which possess multiple bonding characters, as their reactivity is very similar that of M = N imido bonds [34]. Currently, various metal complexes supported by imidazolin-2-iminato ligands exhibit high activity in ethylene (co)polymerization and alkyne metathesis [10,12,21,35–47].
