Synergistic Catalysis in Heterobimetallic Complexes for Homogeneous Carbon Dioxide Hydrogenation

Zeno B. G. Fickenscher et al.

Summary: Two heterometallic Mo,M' complexes (M' = Ir-III, Rh-III) were synthesized and characterized. They showed a significant synergistic effect, especially Mo and Ir, leading to a fourfold increase in catalytic activity compared to a binary mixture of the monometallic counterparts. The mechanism of CO2 hydrogenation to formate by a monometallic Ir-III catalyst was studied, revealing the importance of the metal-base adduct and inner-sphere hydride transfer.

Liquid Dynamics Determine Transition Metal-N-Heterocyclic Carbene Complex Formation

Paul Zaby et al.

Summary: The formation mechanism of metal-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes from imidazolium salts in the presence of weak bases was investigated through theoretical methods. Quantum chemical calculations revealed that both sodium acetate and trimethylamine facilitate complex formation. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that the ionic nature of the [AuCl2](-) and imidazolium ions, as well as the sodium acetate base, keep these species associated in the reaction mixture through ion pairing. The neutral amine, however, remains mostly separated from the other reaction partners, making it a significantly less effective base.

Group 6 transition metal-based molecular complexes for sustainable catalytic CO2 activation

B. Rajeshwaree et al.

Summary: The article discusses the major concerns of the alarming growth in atmospheric CO2 in the context of global climate change, as well as the main contributors to CO2 emissions. To achieve sustainable energy harvesting, improvements in existing CO2 capture, utilization, and sequestration methods are necessary. The study suggests that CO2-activating catalysts based on group 6 transition elements may offer new solutions for the CO2 reduction reaction.

The Pauli Repulsion-Lowering Concept in Catalysis

Trevor A. Hamlin et al.

Summary: Organic chemistry has had a significant impact on humanity, with common organic compounds such as pharmaceuticals, plastics, and fuels being synthesized through organic reactions. Despite the frequent use of Lewis acids and organocatalysts in catalyzing organic reactions, the concept of LUMO-lowering catalysis is found to be incomplete and not always effective.

Origin of the α-Effect in SN2 Reactions

Thomas Hansen et al.

Summary: The alpha-effect explains the enhanced reactivity of alpha-nucleophiles compared to normal nucleophiles, but the exact origin is still debated. Our analysis found that an alpha-nucleophile needs to have a small HOMO lobe and high energy HOMO to exhibit the alpha-effect.

Hydrogen peroxide production from oxygen and formic acid by homogeneous Ir-Ni catalyst

Yoshihiro Shimoyama et al.

Summary: Hydrogen peroxide was directly produced from oxygen and formic acid, catalysed by a hetero-dinuclear Ir-Ni complex with two adjacent sites, at ambient temperature. Synergistic catalysis derived from the hetero-dinuclear Ir and Ni centres was demonstrated, with Ir facilitating the oxygenation reaction and Ni promoting solvent activation as proton sources. The catalytic mechanism of H2O2 production by the Ir-Ni complex was discussed based on kinetic analysis, isotope labelling experiments, and theoretical DFT calculations.

Formate-driven catalysis and mechanism of an iridium-copper complex for selective aerobic oxidation of aromatic olefins in water†

Yoshihiro Shimoyama et al.

Summary: The hetero-dinuclear Ir-III-Cu-II complex catalyzes the aerobic oxidation of aromatic olefins in water driven by formate, generating Ir-alkyl species and promoting the reaction with Cu-II under acidic conditions. This cooperative catalysis is revealed through spectroscopic detection, kinetic analysis, and theoretical calculations.
