Kinetics and mechanism of halide exchange in reactions of CpRu(PPh3)2Cl with alkyl halides: evidence for radical pairs
NEW JOURNAL OF CHEMISTRY(2023)
摘要
Halide exchange reactions between CpRu(PPh3)(2)Cl (1) and CBr4, CHBr3, CBr3CO2Et or CHBr2CO2Et yielding CpRu(PPh3)(2)Br (3) are facile and appear to proceed by a radical pair intermediate in a second order reaction. The relative reactivity of the bromocarbon compounds follows the order: CBr3CO2Et > CBr4> CHBr2CO2Et > CHBr3 >> C4H9Br. Activation parameters for the reaction of 1 with CHBr3 are measured as Delta H dagger = 65 +/- 5 kJ mol(-1) and Delta S dagger =-157 +/- 17 J mol(-1) K-1. Substitution of CH3C5H4Ru(PPh3)(2)Cl (4) for 1 in reactions with CBr4 increases the rate of halide exchange. The observation of ATRA reactivity of CBr4, CHBr3, CBr3CO2Et and CHBr2CO2Et with styrene when catalyzed by 1 and AIBN supports the formation of d5 RuIII intermediates. Density functional theory calculations on potential intermediates suggests that a pathway leading to CpRu(PPh3)(Cl)(Br)' is more likely than oxidative addition, which is preferred in reactions of 1 with bromoethane.
