Examine bonding to all three rows of transition metals Use MH+ as model because a positive metal is more representative of organometallic and inorganic complexes M0 usually has two electrons in ns orbitals or else one M+ generally has one electron in ns orbitals or else zero M2+ never has electrons in ns orbitals 2

Physics behind Woodward-Hoffman Rules For a reaction to be allowed, the number of bonds must be conserved. Consider H 2 + D 2 2 bonds TS? bonds 2 bonds To be allowed must have 2 bonds at TS How assess number of bonds at the TS. What do the dots mean? Consider first the fragment Have 3 electrons, 3 MO s Have 1 bond. Next consider 4 th atom, can we get 2 bonds? Bonding 2 elect nonbonding 1 elect antibonding 0 elect 39
Can we have 2s + 2s reactions for transition metals? 2s + 2s forbidden for organics X 2s + 2s forbidden for organometallics? Cl 2 Ti? Cl 2 Ti? Cl 2 Ti Cl 2 Ti Me Cl 2 Ti Me Cl 2 Ti Me Me Me Me 40
Physics behind Woodward-Hoffman Rules Bonding 2 elect nonbonding 1 elect antibonding 0 elect Have 1 bond. Question, when add 4 th atom, can we get 2 bonds? Can it bond to the nonbonding orbital? Answer: NO. The two orbitals are orthogonal in the TS, thus the reaction is forbidden 41
Now consider a TM case: Cl 2 TiH + + D 2 Orbitals of reactants GVB orbitals of TiH bond for Cl 2 TiH + GVB orbitals of D 2 42
Is Cl 2 TiH + + D 2 è Cl 2 TiD + + HD allowed? Bonding 2 elect nonbonding 1 elect antibonding 0 elect when add Ti 4 th atom, can we get 2 bonds? Now the bonding orbital on Ti is d-like. Thus at TS have Answer: YES. The two orbitals can have high overlap at the TS orthogonal in the TS, thus the reaction is allowed 43
GVB orbitals at the TS for Cl 2 TiH + + D 2 è Cl 2 TiD + + HD 44
GVB orbitals for the Cl 2 TiD + + HD product Note get phase change for both orbitals 45
Follow the D2 bond as it evolves into the HD bond 46
Follow the TiH bond as it evolves into the TiD bond 47
Barriers small, thus allowed Increased d character in bond è smaller barrier 48
Are all MH reactions with D2 allowed? No Example: ClMn-H + D2 Here the Mn-Cl bond is very polar Mn(4s-4p z ) lobe orbital with Cl:3pz This leaves the Mn: (3d) 5 (4s+4pz), S=3 state to bond to the H But spin pairing to a d orbital would lose 4*K dd /2+K sd /2= (40+2.5) = 42.5 kcal/mol whereas bonding to the (4s+4pz) orbital loses 5*K sd /2 = 12.5 kcal/mol As a result the H bonds to (4s+4pz), leaving a high spin d5. Now the exchange reaction is forbidden 49
Thus ClMn-H bond is sp-like ClMnH Mn (4s) 2 (3d) 5 The Cl pulls off 1 e from Mn, leaving a d 5 s 1 configuration H bonds to 4s because of exchange stabilization of d 5 Mn-H bond character 0.07 Mnd+0.71Mnsp+1.20H This cannot overlap the antisymmetric orbital delocalized over the three H atoms in the TS As a result at the Transition state the MnH bond has the character of H 3- with both electrons on the H3. This leads to a high barrier, ~45 kcal/mol
