1 Problem 1 (4 points) In 2004, a bimetallic Zr compound exhibiting side-on N2 binding was reported by Chirik and coworkers (Nature, 2004, 427, pp ). The crystal structure of this compound was obtained, and the ORTEP view is shown below. Depending on the relative orientations of the dinitrogen ligand and the two (Me4HC6)2Zr units that it bridges, several different point groups could be imagined for this molecule. Three examples are shown in the figure to the right (A, B, and C Example A corresponds to the structure reported by the Chirik group). A D2 B D2h View Along N-N Bond Axis: View Along Zr-Zr Axis: Zr N Zr N Zr N Zr N Zr N Zr N C C2v Zr N Zr N Zr N Methyl groups on (C 5 HMe 4 ) omitted for clarity Part A. 1. Determine the point group of these three structures (A, B, and C), ignoring the methyl groups on the Cp rings. 2. Using structure B, and the point group to which it belongs, derive SALCs for the frontier metal orbitals found in the metallocene wedge. Use the approximation that these are bent Cp2Zr fragments, and for your basis set, consider only the three d-orbitals we have described in class, shown to the right, for a total of 6 SALCs. Use the indicated labels (M1- M6) in your derivation of the SALCS using the projection operator. Indicate the Mulliken symbols of each SALC, and write out the normalized wavefunction corresponding to each SALC.

3 3. Indicate the Mulliken symbols of the five frontier MOs of dinitrogen (HOMO-1, HOMO, LUMO). Derive the qualitative MO diagram corresponding to the interaction between the 6 Zr2 SALCs and the frontier orbitals of N2. This should be done using structure B from part 1. Indicate the Mulliken symbols for each MO. Sketch each of the resulting MOs, indicate the axial symmetry of each MO with respect to axis defined by the two Zr atoms, and whether each MO is bonding, non-bonding, or anti-bonding with respect to the Zr-N2 interaction. Populate the diagram with electrons. Indicate the orbital(s) responsible for the elongation of the N-N distance. 3g (Zr-N 2 -Zr, backbonding 1B 1g (n.b.) g g A g +B 1u 1u (Zr-N 2 -Zr, 3A g (n.b.)

Provide an explanation for why the isolated compound (from the Nature paper) does not exhibit the conformation of structure B. Steric constraints might prevent the Me4C5H ligands from becoming eclipsed in the idealized D2h geometry.
4 5. By inspection, generate SALCs for the frontier orbitals of the two metallocene fragments in the point group of structure C. Derive an MO diagram for the interaction with N2 and draw the MOs responsible for elongation of the N-N distance. Indicate whether you expect B or C to exhibit the longer N-N distance. Provide an explanation for why the isolated compound does not exhibit the conformation of structure C. The M-L π back-bonding orbital only has a contribution from one metal center (in D2h structure, there is contribution from two metal centers). 2 (Zr-N 2, backbonding 7A 2 (n.b.) 2A 1 B 1 +B 2 2A 1 1 (Zr-N 2 -Zr, 5A 1 (n.b.) 1 (~n.b.) 1 (~n.b. 3A 1 (n.b.) 2 (Zr-N 2, backbonding Zr 1 (n.b.

5 Problem 2 (3 points) The first rare-earth metal complex with an end-on dinitrogen bridge has been isolated from the reduction of [N(SiMe3)2]3 under N2 (JACS, ASAP, DOI: /jacs.7b08456). Consider the bridging dinitrogen species in the staggered conformation in which the silylamide ligands have been substituted with simple amide ligands, as illustrated below. 1. Using the MO diagram of the trigonal planar Mo(NH2)3 complex discussed in class, show the d-splitting diagram for the N2 free, trigonal planar [(NH2)3] complex. Populate with electrons, and indicate the type of metal-ligand interaction (bonding/antibonding/non-bonding, σ/π/δ). Label each orbital with their d-orbital parentage (dz2, dxy etc). 2. Starting from the d-orbitals of the trigonal planar [(NH2)3] complex, derive the d-splitting diagram of the trigonal pyramidal [(NH2)3] fragment. Clearly show the relative energies of the resulting d-orbitals upon pyramidalization. For the d-splitting diagram of the pyramidal [(NH2)3] fragment, populate with electrons, and indicate the type of metal-ligand interaction (bonding/antibonding/non-bonding, σ/π/δ). Label each orbital with their d-orbital parentage (dz2, dxy etc). ( d x2-y2,d xy ( d x2-y2,d xy, less overlap ( d z2 (n.b.), d xz,d yz ( n.b. d z2 (~n.b.), d xz,d yz
6 3. Assign the point group of the 2N2 model shown above. Derive the metal based SALCs from the two pyramidal fragments (consider only the d-based orbitals). Sketch all SALCs and indicate their Mulliken symbols and d-orbital parentage from each metal. Full mathematical derivation is not required. D3d d x2-y2,d xy H2 N (A 1g ) NH2 d z2 NH H2 N NH2 2 NH H2 N NH2 2 + orthogonal orbital (E u ) + orthogonal orbital (E g ) d xz,d yz H2 N NH2 (A 2u ) H2 N NH2 H2 N NH2 + orthogonal orbital (E g ) + orthogonal orbital (E u ) 4. Using the SALCs derived above and the frontier orbitals (HOMO 1, HOMO, LUMO) of N2, provide a molecular orbital diagram of [(NH2)3(N2)(NH2)3] 2. Populate the diagram with electrons. For each MO, indicate the Mulliken symbol, the axial symmetry with respect to the N2 interactions, and the nature of the interaction (bonding, etc.). Sketch the MOs for all occupied d-based orbitals. Do you expect the compound to be paramagnetic or diamagnetic? Paramagnetic, S = 1
7 4. [(NH2)3(N2)(NH2)3] 2 loses the N2 bridge upon brief irradiation with UV-light, leading to the formation of the monomeric [(NH2)3] species. By recrystallizing [(NH2)3] under N2, [(NH2)3(N2)(NH2)3] 2 can be regenerated. Based on these observations, and the MO diagram derived above, provide an explanation for the reversible, weak binding of N2 in the dimer complex. The intense absorption at 406 nm has been attributed to the transition from the HOMO ( N2 π-backbonding) to the LUMO+5 ( N2 π*). This results in an overall weaker N2 interaction, leading to N2 dissociation.

9 3. By reducing the complex, the resonance form with the Mo C triple bond is favored. In MO terms, the added electron populates the Mo CO π back bonding orbital, strengthening the Mo C bond and weakening the C O bond. Formally, the oxidation state assignment would change from Mo(II) to Mo(VI). The d-electron count changes from d 4 to d 0, and the valence electron count would not change (16 e ). Generally, more reduced metal complexes will display stronger π back bonding. As we move from left to right in a period, the electronegativity of the elements increases. The increase in ν(co) corresponds to a reduction in the basicity of the metal and in the strength of π back bonding (see table below). Moving down a group has little effect. Strongly σ or π donating ligands will result in more activated M CO complexes. Having fewer donor ligands causes a significant reduction of back bonding. 4. Reaction with Me3SiCl. This reaction is consistent with the Mo(VI) resonance picture. The formal negative charge on oxygen indicates that it will act as a nucleophile, attacking the electrophilic center in trimethylsilyl chloride. 5. Rank CO, [(CO)Mo(NH2)3], [(CO)Mo(NH2)3], and [(Me3SiOC)Mo(NH2)3] ν {free CO} > ν {(CO)Mo(NH2)3} > ν {(CO)Mo(NH2)3 } > ν {(Me3SiOC)Mo(NH2)3}
