1 Scission of Dinitrogen by a Molybdenum(III) Xylidene Complex CHM 5.33 Fall 2005
2 Introduction The experiment is based on research performed in the laboratory of Professor Cummins during the early 90 s. Refer to: Laplaza, Catalina, and Christopher Cummins. "Dinitrogen Cleavage by a Three-Coordinate Molybdenum (III) Complex." Science 269 (1995):
3 Aspects of the Lab The experiment involves basic organic synthesis and introduces some rudimentary aspects of the manipulation of air and moisture sensitive materials. In addition, students use GC-MS and MR to characterize the compounds made during the experiment. The experiment provides a very good context for the discussion of electronic structure and bonding in transition metal complexes.
4 Chemistry of itrogen Free gaseous atom is a ground-state quartet (2s 2 2p 3 ) 2S + 1 2(3/2) + 1 = 4 2s 2p itrogen is trivalent - prefers to form three bonds (H 3, HC, 2 ) three electron oxidant 2 Extremely important naturally and synthetically (amino acids, DA, polymers, fertilizers) 2p 2p 2 (dinitrogen) is the most abundant molecule in the earth s atmosphere comprising ~80% The very stable triple bond (H dis = 225 kcal/mol) renders 2 practically inert 2 does combine with metals to form nitrides
5 itrogen is a common component of many important natural and synthetic compounds We need a way to utilize the natural abundance of 2 as a synthetic feed stock 2 + 3H 2 2H H 2 E a G ~ -4 kcal/mol 2H 3 Thermodynamically, the reaction of 2 with H 2 is favorable The problem lies in overcoming the kinetic barrier
6 Biological itrogen Fixation In nature, 2 is converted to ammonia by bacteria which grow in different forms of plant life and algae. These bacteria contain the nitrogenase enzyme which catalytically reduces 2 to metabolically useful H 3 The enzymes operate anaerobically at ambient temperature and pressure using a two component metalloprotein: the first contains Fe (electron source), and the second contains both Fe and Mo or V(site of binding and reduction). Image removed due to copyright reasons. Please see: Einsle, Oliver et al. "itrogenase MoFe-Protein at 1.16 Resolution: A Central Ligand in the FeMo- Cofactor." Science 297 (2002): In 2002, Rees reported the 1.6 Å resolution crystal structure of nitrogenase showing the presence of an atom in the center of the FeMo cofactor
7 Industrial Production of Ammonia Haber-Bosch process: Fritz Haber Carl Bosch H 2 2H 3 Fe catalyst, ºC and atm This process consumes 1% of the world s total annual energy supply
8 Why Molybdenum? In nature, bacteria are able to "fix" nitrogen at ambient T & P this process is catalyzed by the nitrogenase enzyme which contains as part of its structure an Fe/Mo cofactor A coordinatively unsaturated Mo(III) compound could presumably bind a small molecule and reduce it by three electrons Ti V Cr Mn Fe Co i Cu Zr b Mo Tc Ru Rh Pd Ag Producing a coordinatively unsaturated Mo(III) complex poses a formidable synthetic challenge

11 Advantages of the Ligand Provide steric bulk to discourage metal-metal bonding and only allow access to small molecules Combine spherical t-butyl groups and planar aromatic groups to allow for better crystallinity Lack -hydrogens and silyl groups which provide decomposition pathways Amido groups are good -donors and further stabilize electron deficient metal center M

15 Electronic Structure of Mo[t-Bu(Ar)] 3 Mo(III) d 3 Mo High spin quartet ground state Three fold symmetric (C 3v ) t-butyl groups lie on one side of the Mo 3 face and aryls on the other sterically protecting the metal atom
16 Sigma Bonding z Mo x y The three nitrogen atoms lie in a plane and direct their bonding orbitals at 120º towards Mo. z x y y x The orbitals on Mo that participate in the bonding will be s, d x 2 -y 2, d xy, and to a smaller extent dz2.
17 Pi Bonding Contribution y x d xy and d x 2 -y 2 also participate in bonding with the p orbitals of the amide ligands this combination of amide p orbitals cannot form bonds with the metal

19 d-orbital Configuration e d xy, d x 2 -y 2 Both crystal field theory and ligand field theory result in an orbital picture that places three unpaired electrons in lower lying non-bonding d- orbitals d xz, d yz e d z 2 a 1

21 Roald Hoffmann obel Prize We will call two fragments isolobal if the number, symmetry properties, approximate energy and shape of the frontier orbitals and the number of electrons in them are similar-not identical, but similar. obel lecture, 8 December 1981

24 Thermodynamics 2MoL MoL 3 H dis ( 2 ) = 225 kcal/mol 2 H dis (Mo) = 310 kcal/mol 2MoL The and components of the Mo- triple bond result in a very strong bonding interaction. This new interaction compensates for the energy lost in breaking the 2 triple bond.
25 Potential for Catalysis In order to create a catalytic system, we must regenerate the MoL 3 complex. Attempts at using MoL 3 as a 2 to H 3 catalyst have thus far been unsuccessful. MoL 3 H H MoL 3

27 See: Yandulov, Dmitry V., and Richard R. Schrock. "Catalytic Reduction of Dinitrogen to Ammonia at a Single Molybdenum Center." Science 301 (2003):
28 Conclusions The Mo[(t-Bu)Ar] 3 reacts with 2 at low temperature to cleave the triple bond and form a pair of Mo(VI) nitride complexes. The reactivity of the MoL 3 fragment can be rationalized by considering the electronic structure of the molecule and the isolobal analogy. The CHM 5.33 experiments provides a unique opportunity to explore a recent discovery in the area of inorganic chemistry.
