Bond energy is 225 kcal/mole. Combines with other elements only with difficulty. At high temperature combines directly with magnesium, titanium, and aluminum, forming nitrides. 9/9/03 6

Half of the total nitrogen input to agriculture (the rest comes by biological nitrogen fixation). About 1% of the world s total annual energy supply. 9/9/03 7

13 5. Why 2 is activated by Mo(III) complexes? 3 Mo is isolobal to nitrogen atom () and carbyde (CH), with all three d electrons unpaired (high spin). The frontier orbitals 3a 1 2e 2 are derived largely from dz2 (3a) and dxz and dyz, respectively (2e). (see the pictures on right dxz, dyz, dz2). The R 1 R 2 substituent is a strong donor into d orbitals (e MOs) of Mo, increasing the electron density at the metal. 9/9/03 13
14 Isolobal analogy (R. Hoffmann, Angew Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1982, 21, 711) is relating structures of organometallic compounds to organic ones. Two fragments are isolobal if the number, symmetry properties, approximate energy, an shape of the frontier orbitals and the number of electrons in them are similar. Mo(RAr) 3 is isolobal with CH Mo H C Mo Mo Mo CH CH CH 9/9/03 14
15 There are and interactions involved in 2 - Mo 3. 2 provides the electrons to empty orbitals of Mo (s or d). The component is back-donation from occupied d orbitals to the empty * of 2. As result Mo- becomes stronger, the - bond weaker and the reaction 3 Mo 2 Mo 3 2Mo 3 more exothermic. Dissociation energy: Mo triple bond = 155 kcal/mol, 2 is kcal/mol: 2R 3 Mo + 2 2R 3 Mo is exothermic 9/9/03 15

25 9. Concluding remarks and future developments: The 1995 discovery by MIT scientists that the three-coordinate molybdenum(iii) complex Mo[(t-Bu)Ar] 3 reacts readily with nitrogen, became in 1998 an advanced undergraduate experiment. The (best) synthesis of the ligand (-t-butyl-m-xylidine) is performed based on a procedure modified from the literature. During the experiment students perform syntheses of diverse organic and inorganic compounds using glove box techniques. Topics like the isolobal concept, 1 H-MR of paramagnetic species, high spin electronic states are also covered. The next version of the experiment will also feature a short cut in the synthesis of MoCl 3 (THF) 3, the electronic structures calculated at the DFT level to rationalize the unusual reactivity of Mo 3 and to assess the Mo vibration in 3 Mo. 9/9/03 25
