This thesis presents the synthesis, characterization and reactivity of a series of palladium complexes that contain redox-active verdazyl ligands. This work was motivated by the possibility of discovering new and interesting reactivity that may eventually lead to the development of new chemical reactions. A bidentate verdazyl radical ligand that contains an aryl phosphine was synthesized. Reaction of this ligand with (PhCN)2PdCl2 yielded a square planar (verdazyl)PdCl2 complex. Structural and spectroscopic data suggest that this compound consists of a ligand-centered radical coordinated to a Pd(II) center. The radical complex was chemically reduced by one-electron to generate a binuclear chloride-bridged [(verdazyl)PdCl]2 complex. In this reduced complex, both metals were still Pd(II) and the verdazyl ligand was determined to be in its singly reduced, monoanionic charge state. The original radical PdCl2 complex could be regenerated via one-electron oxidation of the reduced complex using PhICl2. The verdazyl ligands in the reduced complex could also be reversibly protonated to generate "leuco" verdazyl complex (verdazyl-H)PdCl2. Reaction of the radical (verdazyl)PdCl2 complex with water triggers a ligand-centered redox disproportionation reaction. A series of bis(verdazyl) palladium complexes were synthesized using a bidentate pyridine-substituted verdazyl ligand. Reaction of two equivalents of radical ligand with (CH3CN)4Pd2+ yielded a (verdazyl)2Pd(solvent)2+ complex (solvent = CH3CN or DMSO). In this complex, one verdazyl radical ligand chelates to palladium and the other binds as a monodentate ligand. Two-electron reduction of this complex generated a (verdazyl)2Pd complex in which two monoanionic verdazyl ligands are bound to a central Pd(II) ion. This reduced complex could also be made via reaction of 0.5 equivalents of Pd(0)2(dba)3 with two equivalents of radical ligand. In this reaction, the metal is oxidized by two electrons and each ligand is reduced by a single electron. Two-electron oxidation of the reduced complex in the presence of DMSO yielded the original bis(radical)complex, (verdazyl)2Pd(DMSO)2+. Chlorination of the reduced complex using one equivalent of PhICl2 (two-electron oxidation) resulted in dissociation of one verdazyl ligand to afford a 1:1 mixture of free verdazyl : (verdazyl)PdCl2, in which both of the verdazyls are neutral radicals. Reaction of the reduced complex with 0.5 equivalents of PhICl2 (one-electron oxidation) yielded a (verdazyl)2PdCl complex that contained a bidentate reduced verdazyl ligand and a monodentate radical ligand. All three of the oxidation reactions described above adhere to ligand-centered redox chemistry. Reaction of the reduced (verdazyl)2Pd complex with excess HCl resulted in protonation of both the anionic verdazyl ring and the pyridyl group to generate a leuco/pyridinium tetrachloropalladate salt, (verdazyl-H2)2(PdCl4). The protonated salt could be converted back to the original (verdazyl)2Pd complex by deprotonation with water. Palladium complexes of a tridentate NNN-chelating verdazyl ligand were prepared and their redox chemistry was explored. Reaction of the radical ligand with (CH3CN)4Pd2+ yielded radical complex (verdazyl)Pd(NCCH3)2+. The tridentate ligand was also prepared in its reduced, leuco form (verdazyl-H). Reaction of the leuco verdazyl with (CH3CN)2PdCl2 generated HCl and a (verdazyl)PdCl complex in which the ligand is in its monoanionic charge state. The reduced (verdazyl)PdCl complex was reacted with AgBF4 to afford (verdazyl)Pd(NCCH3)+ via chloride abstraction; the verdazyl remained in its reduced charge state following the reaction. Both reduced complexes (chloro and acetonitrile) were oxidized by a single electron to afford the corresponding radical complexes. These radical complexes could be reduced by a single electron to regenerate the original reduced complexes. Like the previous two projects, all of the redox chemistry was ligand-centered. The reactivity of these complexes with primary amines was also explored. Reaction of radical complex (verdazyl)Pd(NCCH3)2+ with n-butylamine resulted in one-electron reduction of the verdazyl ligand. We were unable to determine the mechanism of the reaction, but the reactivity that was observed demonstrates the potential for verdazyl-palladium complexes to be used in the design of new radical reactions.

This dissertation describes the synthesis and reactivity of tantalum metal complexes containing a tridentate redox-active ligand. Fundamental studies have focused on utilizing the redox-active ligand to store multiple electron equivalents for oxidative addition and reductive elimination reactions. Chapter 1 provides an introduction to the characteristics of redox-active ligands and provides an overview of group transfer reactions involving redox-active ligands. The previous published results of bidentate redox-active ligands coordinated to Group IV d0 metals are discussed in terms of their decomposition side reactions. Chapter 2 describes the coordination of a known tridentate redox-active bis(phenoxy)amide ligand, (ONO), to a d0 tantalum(V) metal center and the examination of the redox properties of the resulting chloro oxidation products by electrochemical and spectroscopic methods. Chapter 3 examines the reactivity of the (ONO)TaR2 complexes in the general context of organometallic chemistry with a focus on protonolysis and reactivity with aryl azides, a known source of nitrene fragments upon oxidation. Chapter 4 examines the reactivity of the (ONO)TaX2 (X = Me, Cl) compounds with bulky diazoalkanes, a known carbene transfer reagent. The (ONO)TaCl2 complex proved to be a competent catalyst to generate cyclopropanes from styrene and the corresponding diazoalkane. Chapter 5 explores the utilization of the (ONO) ligand to store electron equivalents for the catalytic nitrene-nitrene coupling reactions with organoazides to afford organodiazenes. Finally, Chapter 6 addresses the electronic considerations of a related redox-active triamido ligand in an effort to tune the ligand's redox potentials.

Around 30 years ago the transition metal chemistry received great impulses. In the focus have been reactions of nickel and cobalt and herein especially their carbonyls. Also industrial processes have been developed. When the technical oxidation of ethylene with palladium chloride had been discovered, and a great number oflaboratory reactions, many groups have turned towards this subject. Apart from two important industrial processes - acetaldehyde and vinylacetate from ethylene - a great number of conversions and catalytic reactions with palladium compounds have been researched. Their mechanisms have been cleared up and have con tributed to a better understanding of the complex chemistry of palladium. Last but not least these reactions have also served for more understanding of organic transition metal compounds and catalyses in general. Numerous conventional reactions appear today in a different light. The effects of co-

The importance of Pd-catalyzed C--H functionalization reactions for chemical transformations has been widely studied over the last several decades. Much of the research to date has focused on conventional Pd0/II catalytic cycles. However, more recent studies have shown that many transformations can also follow a PdII/IV catalytic cycle. High-valent PdIII and PdIV species are often proposed to be important intermediates in such transformations. C--H coupling reactions involving high-valent intermediates often involve the oxidation of a PdII species to a PdIII or PdIV complex, which can then undergo subsequent C--heteroatom bond formation. However, the need for harsh oxidants and reaction conditions in many of these reactions hinders their practical applicability. The focus of this work is to study the properties and reactivity of PdII, PdIII, and PdIV complexes through modifications of the supporting macrocyclic ligands. Another goal of this work is to probe the ability of these complexes to facilitate C--H activation and C--heteroatom bond formation reactions using environmentally benign oxidants.Our lab reported the synthesis and characterization of the first organometallic mononuclear PdIII complexes stabilized by the tetradentate ligand N,N'-di-tert-butyl-2,11-diaza[3,3](2,6)pyridinophane (tBuN4). In order to further probe the Pd chemistry with this class of ligands, we prepared ligands with modifications to the steric bulk on the amine groups. In the first study detailed in chapter 2, the synthesis and characterization of PdII and PdIII complexes supported by N,N'-di-neo-pentyl-2,11-diaza[3,3](2,6)-pyridinophane(NpN4) and N,N'-di-benzyl-2,11-diaza[3,3](2,6)-pyridinophane(BzN4) is reported. Interestingly, the spectroscopic and crystallographic property of the newly synthesized complexes falls between the tBuN4 and MeN4 complexes. The C--C and C--heteroatom bond formation reactivity of the NpN4 and BzN4 supported complexes is also similar to our group's previously reported complexes.We also prepared and studied a series of Pd complexes bearing a modified tetradentate pyridinophane ligand, tBuN3CH. Essentially, we have replaced one of the nitrogen donor atoms from the N4 ligand with a carbon atom and have also introduced a new C--H bond. Due to its expected positioning near the metal center, this bond has the potential to undergo intramolecular C--H bond activation. In order to study the reactivity of this ligand, electronic modifications were made by substituting various electron-donating and withdrawing groups in the para position to this new C--H bond. In chapter 3, the synthesis and characterization of a series of PdII, PdIII, and PdIV complexes stabilized by the N3CH ligand is reported. Interestingly, a spectroscopic and crystallographic study of the pRN3CHPdII(OAc)2 complexes reveals that the Cipso--H bond remains unactivated at the PdII stage. However, upon oxidation to PdIII, the Cipso--H bond is activated.Interestingly, we discovered that the aerobic oxidation of the PdII complex [pRN3CHPdII(MeCN)](BF4) leads to the formation of the PdIII complex [pRN3CHPdIII(MeCN)](ClO4)2 at room temperature. Surprisingly, the C--H activation reaction proceeds in the presence of oxygen without the need for external base. Furthermore, the moderate rate of the reaction allowed us to investigate the mechanism of the reaction by utilizing kinetics and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Detailed mechanistic studies revealed that C--H activation of the Cipso--H bond is the rate determining step of the reaction.

ABSTRACT continued: These transfer hydrogenation studies are among the first catalytic studies of silyl-pincer complexes and establish [R-PSiP]M species as viable candidates for catalysis. The synthesis and reactivity of 4- and 5-coordinate RuII complexes featuring the [Cy-PSiP] ligand were explored. Reaction of [Cy-PSiP]H with [(p-cymene)RuCl2]2 in the presence of NEt3 and PCy3 resulted in the formation of ([Cy-PSiP]RuCl)2, which serves as a precursor to a series of unprecedented 4-coordinate, formally 14-electron [Cy-PSiP]RuX (X = NHAr, N(SiMe3)2, OtBu) complexes that feature an unusual trigonal pyramidal geometry at Ru. The reactivity of these novel diamagnetic complexes is described, including the reaction of [Cy-PSiP]RuOtBu with amine-boranes resulting in the formation of rare bis(?-BH) complexes. Computational studies confirmed the key role of the strongly ?-donating silyl group of the Cy-PSiP ligand in facilitating the synthesis of such low-coordinate Ru species and enforcing the unusual trigonal pyramidal geometry. The mechanism of ammonia-borane activation was also examined computationally. Lastly, the synthesis and structural characterization of PdII complexes supported by the pincer-like bis(amino)phosphido ligand [?3-(2-Me2NC6H4)2P]- ([NPN]) is described. Examples of ?1-, ?2-, and ?3-NPN coordination to Pd are described, as is the catalytic activity of ([NPN]PdX)2 (X = Cl, OAc, OTf) complexes in the Heck olefin arylation reaction. In an effort to discourage the formation of phosphido-bridged dinuclear complexes, pre-coordination of the Lewis acid BPh3 to [NPN] was pursued. Upon reaction of [N(P?BPh3)N]K with [PdCl(C3H5)]2, the ?1-allyl complex [?3-N(P?BPh3)N]Pd(?1-C3H5) was isolated, which establishes the coordination of a Lewis acid to the phosphido donor of the [NPN] ligand as a viable strategy for encouraging the formation of mononuclear ?3-NPN complexes.

The Organic Chemistry of Palladium, Volume 1: Metal Complexes deals with the number of organic reactions that can be catalyzed by palladium, particularly as regards the structures bonding, and reactions of the metal complexes. The book discusses monodentate ligands which are either neutral (carbonyls, isonitriles, carbenes) or anionic (methyl, phenyl, ethynyl, hydride). The text also examines the complexes formed by 1,3-. 1,4-, and 1,5-diolefins where four carbon atoms are bound to the metal. Palladium (II) can undergo a reaction with the 1,3-dienes and results in a ?-allylic complexes where only three carbon atoms are coordinated to the metal. (The bonding situation in complexes 1,4- and 1,5-dienes, where no great interaction between the olefins are similar to that in monoolefin complexes, is straightforward), Olefins can also react with palladium chloride in protic solvents to produce ketones (or aldehydes) or organic coupling products. Some experiments conducted by Huttel et al shows that some palladium was precipitated from the reactions giving lower yields, resulting in various aldehydes and ketones as by products. The book also discusses cyclopentadienyl and benzene complexes. The text can prove beneficial for researchers, investigators and scientists whose works involve organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, physical chemistry and inorganic chemistry.
