The zwitterionic A5-spirosilicates bis[1,2-benzenediolato(2–)][(morpholinio)methyl]silicate (1), bis[2,3-naphthalenediolato(2–)][(morpholinio)methyl]silicate (2; isolated as 2 • CH3CN), bis[1,2-benzenediolato(2–)][3-(morpholinio)propyl]silicate (3) and bis[2,3-naphthalenediolato(2 –)][3-(morpholinio)propyl]silicate (4; isolated as 4·1/2CH3CN) have been synthesized by various methods including Si – C bond cleavage reactions. The crystal structures of 2 • CH3CN and 4 · 1/2 CH3CN have been determined. 1,2 • CH3CN, 3 and 4 · 1/2 CH3CN have also been characterized by solution-state (1H, 13C, 29Si) and solid-state NMR spectroscopy (29Si CP/MAS). The pentacoordinate silicon atoms of the zwitterions 1-4 are surrounded by four oxygen atoms and one carbon atom. In the crystal, the coordination polyhedra around the silicon atoms of 2 • CH3CN (two crystallographically independent zwitterions and two crystallographically independent acetonitrile molecules) can be described as nearly ideal trigonal bipyramids, with the carbon atoms occupying equatorial sites. The crystal structure of 2 • CH3CN is considerably influenced by intermolecular N – H···N hydrogen bonds between the zwitterions and the acetonitrile molecules. The coordination polyhedron observed for the silicon atom in the crystal of 4 · 1/2 CH3CN can be described as a distorted square pyramid, with the carbon atom in the apical position. The crystal structure of 4 · 1/2 CH3CN is considerably governed by intermolecular N –H···O hydrogen bonds between the zwitterions which form infinite chains in the crystal. The 29Si chemical shifts (δ = – 75,5 to – 85,8) observed for 1,2 • CH3CN, 3 and 4 · 1/2 CH3CN in solution ([D6]DMSO) and in the crystal are typical of pentacoordinate silicon of the type SiO4C. For all compounds very similar 29Si chemical shifts have been observed for the solution and solid state [⊿(δ29Si) ≤ 0,9] indicating that the zwitterions 1-4 do also exist in solution.

Organoplatinum Compounds

We report selective formation of heterobimetallic PtII/CuI complexes that demonstrate how facile bond activation processes can be achieved by altering reactivity of common organoplatinum compounds through their interaction with another metal center. The interaction of the Cu center with Pt center and with a Pt-bound alkyl group increases the stability of PtMe2 towards undesired rollover cyclometalation. The presence of the CuI center also enables facile transmetalation from electron-deficient tetraarylborate [B(ArF)4]- anion and mild C-H bond cleavage of a terminal alkyne, which was not observed in the absence of an electrophilic Cu center. The DFT study indicates that the role of Cu center acts as a binding site for alkyne substrate, while activating its terminal C-H bond.

Electron Reduction

The reduction of the relatively inert carbon–oxygen bonds of CO<sub>2</sub> to access useful CO<sub>2</sub>-derived organic products is one of the most important fundamental challenges in synthetic chemistry. Facilitating this bond-cleavage using earth-abundant, non-toxic main group elements (MGEs) is especially arduous because of the difficulty in achieving strong inner-sphere interactions between CO<sub>2</sub> and the MGE. Herein we report the first successful chemical reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> at room temperature by alkali metals, promoted by a cyclic(alkyl)(amino) carbene (CAAC). One-electron reduction of CAAC-CO<sub>2</sub> adduct (<b>1</b>) with lithium, sodium or potassium metal yields stable monoanionic radicals clusters [M(CAAC–CO<sub>2</sub>)]<sub>n</sub>(M = Li, Na, K, <b> 2</b>-<b>4</b>) and two-electron alkali metal reduction affords open-shell, dianionic clusters of the general formula [M<sub>2</sub>(CAAC–CO<sub>2</sub>)]<sub>n </sub>(<b>5</b>-<b>8</b>). It is notable that these crystalline clusters of reduced CO<sub>2</sub> may also be isolated via the “one-pot” reaction of free CO<sub>2</sub> with free CAAC followed by the addition of alkali metals – a reductive process which does not occur in the absence of carbene. Each of the products <b>2</b>-<b>8</b> were investigated using a combination of experimental and theoretical methods.<br>

Pentadentate Ligand

Diprotonation of a remarkably stable, toluene soluble cobalt peroxo complex supported by a neutral, dianionic pentadentate ligand leads to facile O-O bond cleavage and production of a highly reactive Co(IV) oxyl cation intermediate that dimerizes and releases O<sub>2</sub>. These processes are relevant to both O<sub>2</sub> reduction and O<sub>2</sub> evolution and the mechanism was probed in detail both experimentally and computationally.

<p>To mitigate global problems related to energy and global warming, it is helpful to develop an ammonia synthesis process using catalysts that are highly active under mild conditions. Here we show that the ammonia synthesis activity of Ru/Ba/LaCeO<i><sub>x</sub></i> pre-reduced at 700 °C is the highest reported among oxide-supported Ru catalysts. Our results indicate that low crystalline oxygen-deficient composite oxides, which include Ba<sup>2+</sup>, Ce<sup>3+</sup> and La<sup>3+</sup>, with strong electron-donating ability, accumulate on Ru particles and thus promote N≡N bond cleavage, which is the rate determining step for ammonia synthesis.</p>
