Two Faces of the Bi O Bond: Photochemically and Thermally Induced Dehydrocoupling for Si O Bond Formation

The diorgano(bismuth)alcoholate [Bi((C6H4CH2)2S)OPh] (1-OPh) has been synthesized and fully characterized. Stoichiometric reactions, UV/Vis spectroscopy, and (TD-)DFT calculations suggest its susceptibility to homolytic and heterolytic Bi-O bond cleavage under given reaction conditions. Using the dehydrocoupling of silanes with either TEMPO or phenol as model reactions, the catalytic competency of 1-OPh has been investigated (TEMPO =(tetramethyl-piperidin-1-yl)-oxyl). Different reaction pathways can deliberately be addressed by applying photochemical or thermal reaction conditions and by choosing radical or closed-shell substrates (TEMPO vs. phenol). Applied analytical techniques include NMR, UV/Vis, and EPR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, and (TD)-DFT calculations

Das Dimethylbismut-Kation: Zugang zu dativen Bi-Bi-Bindungen und unkonventionellem Methylaustausch

Die Isolierung einfacher, hochreaktiver metallorganischer Verbindungen von grundlegendem Interesse gehört nach wie vor zu den schwierigsten Aufgaben in der Synthesechemie. Die detaillierte Charakterisierung solcher Verbindungen ist der Schlüssel zum Verständnis neuer Bindungsszenarien und Reaktivitäten. Das Dimethylbismut-Kation, [BiMe2(SbF6)] (1), wurde isoliert und charakterisiert. Seine Reaktion mit BiMe3 ermöglicht den Zugang zu einer bislang unbekannten dativen Bindung, der Bi→Bi-Donor/Akzeptor-Wechselwirkung. Der Austausch von Methylgruppen (der wohl einfachsten Kohlenwasserstoffeinheit) zwischen verschiedenen Metallatomen gehört zu den wichtigsten Reaktionstypen in der metallorganischen Chemie. Die Reaktion von 1 mit BiMe3 ermöglicht einen Methylaustausch über eine Rückseiten-SE2-Reaktion, welche zum ersten Mal im Detail für isolierbare, (pseudo-)homoleptische Hauptgruppenverbindungen untersucht wird

Vielseitiger Einsatz von Diorganobismutverbindungen: Liganden von Übergangsmetallen, Lewis-Azidität, Niedervalente Spezies und Katalyse

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wurden Diorganobismut-Spezies hinsichtlich ihrer Eigenschaften als Liganden in Übergangsmetallkomplexen, ihrer Lewis-Azidität, ihrer Eignung als Katalysatoren und die Generierung niedervalenter Spezies untersucht.In this work, neutral and cationic diorganobismuth species have been studied, focusing on the rationalization of their Lewis acidity, their use as ligands in complexes of main group and transition metals and the identification of active catalysts

Molecular Bismuth Cations: Assessment of Soft Lewis Acidity

Three‐coordinate cationic bismuth compounds [Bi(diaryl)(EPMe$_{3}$)][SbF$_{6}$] have been isolated and fully characterized (diaryl=[(C$_{6}$H$_{4}$)$_{2}$C$_{2}$H$_{1}$]$^{2-}$, E=S, Se). They represent rare examples of molecular complexes with Bi⋅⋅⋅EPR$_{3}$ interactions (R=monoanionic substituent). The $^{31}$P NMR chemical shift of EPMe3 has been found to be sensitive to the formation of LA⋅⋅⋅EPMe$_{3}$ Lewis acid/base interactions (LA=Lewis acid). This corresponds to a modification of the Gutmann–Beckett method and reveals information about the hardness/softness of the Lewis acid under investigation. A series of organobismuth compounds, bismuth halides, and cationic bismuth species have been investigated with this approach and compared to traditional group 13 and cationic group 14 Lewis acids. Especially cationic bismuth species have been shown to be potent soft Lewis acids that may prefer Lewis pair formation with a soft (S/Se‐based) rather than a hard (O/N‐based) donor. Analytical techniques applied in this work include (heteronuclear) NMR spectroscopy, single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, and DFT calculations

Well‐Defined, Molecular Bismuth Compounds: Catalysts in Photochemically Induced Radical Dehydrocoupling Reactions

A series of diorgano(bismuth)chalcogenides, [Bi(di‐aryl)EPh], has been synthesised and fully characterised (E=S, Se, Te). These molecular bismuth complexes have been exploited in homogeneous photochemically‐induced radical catalysis, using the coupling of silanes with TEMPO as a model reaction (TEMPO=(tetramethyl‐piperidin‐1‐yl)‐oxyl). Their catalytic properties are complementary or superior to those of known catalysts for these coupling reactions. Catalytically competent intermediates of the reaction have been identified. Applied analytical techniques include NMR, UV/Vis, and EPR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis, and (TD)‐DFT calculations

Dihalo bismuth cations: unusual coordination properties and inverse solvent effects in Lewis acidity

A series of well-defined cationic hepta-coordinate bismuth halides [BiX2(py)5][B(3,5-(CF3)2-C6H3)4] (X = Cl, Br, I), stabilized only by substitutionally labile solvent molecules, were synthesized and fully characterized. Their apparent D5h symmetry with a lone pair at the central atom is unprecedented for main group compounds. The potential of BiX3 to show unexpectedly high Lewis acidities in moderately polar solvents is likely due to the formation of [BiX2(solv)5]+ and related ionic species
