Electronic: Versus steric effects of pyridinophane ligands on Pd(III) complexes

Several new PdII and PdIII complexes supported by electronically and sterically tuned tetradentate pyridinophane ligands MeN4OMe, MeN4, and tBuN4 were isolated and fully characterized (MeN4OMe: N,N′-dimethyl-2,11-diaza[3,3](2,6)-para-methoxypyridinophane; MeN4: N,N′-dimethyl-2,11-diaza[3,3](2,6)pyridinophane; tBuN4: N,N′-di-tert-butyl-2,11-diaza[3,3](2,6)pyridinophane). Cyclic voltammetry studies, UV-vis and EPR spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography were employed to reveal that the steric properties of the N-substituents of the RN4 ligands have a pronounced effect on the electronic properties of the corresponding PdIII complexes, while the electronic tuning of the ligand pyridyl groups has a surprisingly minimal effect. An explanation for these observations was provided by DFT and TD-DFT calculations which suggest that the electronic properties of the PdIII complexes are mainly dictated by their frontier molecular orbitals that have major atomic contributions from the Pd center (mainly the Pd dz2 atomic orbital) and the axial N atom donors.
Sulfur transfer reactions of a zinc tetrasulfanido complex

A zinc tetrasulfanido complex supported by a bis(carboxamide)pyridine ligand framework has been synthesized by the insertion of elemental sulfur into the zinc-S(thiolate) bond of a zinc dithiolate complex ([LZn]2-). This paper reports on sulfur transfer reactions of this polysulfanido complex ([1]2-) and compares this behavior to known reactions of metal polysulfido complexes. Complex [1]2- was demonstrated to be in exchange with [LZn]2- and free elemental sulfur in solution. Although triphenylphosphine abstracts sulfur from [1]2- to form [LZn]2-, complex [LZn]2- can abstract sulfur from the zinc polysulfido complex (TMEDA)ZnS6 (TMEDA = N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine). The tetrasulfanido complex [1]2- can also transfer sulfur to dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate to form a zinc dithiolene complex. These studies demonstrate that the zinc complex with a tetrasulfanido moiety can undergo similar reactions as metal complexes with purely inorganic polysulfido groups, although the final metal-containing products are different.
