Thermodynamics and Kinetics of Small Molecule Binding to [Cyclopentadienyl-Ru-NO] and [Rh-CO] Electrophilic Centers
This work is concentrated on the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of water, alcohols, alkyl halides, ethers, and lactones bound and activated by the electrophilic [Cp'Ru(N0)] +2 and [Cp’Ru (NO)(CH3)] + centers (Cp' = cyclopentadienyl group). Counterions in these systems include OSO2CF3- (...

This work is concentrated on the thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of water, alcohols, alkyl halides, ethers, and lactones bound and activated by the electrophilic [Cp'Ru(N0)] +2 and [Cp’Ru (NO)(CH3)] + centers (Cp' = cyclopentadienyl group). Counterions in these systems include OSO2CF3- (OTf-) and [(3, 5-(CF3)2C6H3)4B]- ([BAr4']-). The displacement of OTf- in Cp'Ru(N0) (0Tf)2 by H20 in dichloromethane is exothermic but entropically unfavorable due to the required reorganization of the solvent cage around released triflate ions. Thermodynamic parameters are also determined for OTf displacement by chloride and tetrahydrofuran (THF) using the 19F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.

The results of the study of rhodium triflato complex trans- [Rh (CO)(PPh3)2(OTf)] show that OTf coordinates to the metal center in wet dichloromethane solutions, but the compound crystallizes as a water-coordinated triflate salt trans- [Rh (CO)(PPh3)2(OH2)] [OTf].
