A series of β-halogenated cationic metalloporphyrins were analyzed by LDI-TOF and ESI-MS. Although LDI-TOFMS reveals to be a good tool for the characterization of this family of metal-complexes, including the redox state of the metal, ESI-MS indicates in addition the relative tendency of such metal-complexes to be reduced.

Metal complexes have extensive applications in catalysis, however, the efficient evaluation of Lewis acidity of metal complexes is still a challenge. Herein, we report a method by using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) to evaluate the Lewis acidity of metal complexes in the presence of a reference Lewis base, in which the value of the Lewis acidity can be quantized by the bond dissociation energy (BDE) of the resultant Lewis acid-base pairs. Using this method, the Lewis acidity of tetradentate Schiff-base metal complexes (designated as salenMX), a class of common metal complexes in the homogeneous catalysis, was studied in detail. For the salenM(III)X complexes (M = Al, Cr, Fe, Co), the Lewis acidity tendency is Al > Cr > Fe > Co due to a strong affinity between the Al complex and the reference Lewis base while a weak affinity concerning on the Co complex. Additionally, the effect of ligand steric and electronic nature on the Lewis acidity was studied by using Co complex. Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) was employed to calculate the BDE, which consists with the results obtained from ESI-MS. The ESI-MS method provides a convenient and efficient method for evaluating the Lewis acidity of metal complexes.

The tris(2-cyanoethyl)phosphine (tcep) complex [RuCl2{P(CH2CH2CN)3}(η6-p-cymene)] (p-cymene = p-CH3C6H4iPr) was synthesised by the bridge-splitting reaction of the chlorido-dimer [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)]2 with tcep. The complex was characterised by a single-crystal X-ray structure determination as well as NMR spectroscopy, ESI mass spectrometry, and microelemental analysis. X-ray crystallography shows the ruthenium atom is coordinated by p-cymene in a η6-fashion, two chlorides and the phosphorus atom of the tcep ligand with the donor set defining a distorted octahedral geometry. The ESI mass spectrometry study reveals that the complex readily forms negative ions [M + Cl]− and [2M + Cl]− by association with a chloride ion.
