This novel Ru(bda) macrocycle showed significantly increased catalytic activity in chemical and photocatalytic water oxidation compared to the archetype mononuclear reference [Ru(bda)(pic)\(_2\)]. Kinetic investigations, including kinetic isotope effect studies, disclosed a unimolecular water nucleophilic attack mechanism of this novel dinuclear water oxidation catalyst (WOC) under the involvement of the second coordination sphere. Photocatalytic water oxidation with this cyclic dinuclear Ru complex using [Ru(bpy)\(_3\)]Cl\(_2\) as a standard photosensitizer revealed a turnover frequency of 15.5 s\(^{-1}\) and a turnover number of 460. This so far highest photocatalytic performance reported for a Ru(bda) complex underlines the potential of this water-soluble WOC for artificial photosynthesis.}, language = {en} } @article{LenczykRoyOberdorfetal.2019, author = {Lenczyk, Carsten and Roy, Dipak Kumar and Oberdorf, Kai and Nitsch, J{\"o}rn and Dewhurst, Rian D. and Radacki, Krzysztof and Halet, Jean-Fran{\c{c}}ois and Marder, Todd B. and Bickelhaupt, Matthias and Braunschweig, Holger}, title = {Toward Transition-Metal-Templated Construction of Arylated B\(_{4}\) Chains by Dihydroborane Dehydrocoupling}, series = {Chemistry - A European Journal}, volume = {25}, journal = {Chemistry - A European Journal}, number = {72}, doi = {10.1002/chem.201904772}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-214324}, pages = {16544-16549}, year = {2019}, abstract = {The reactivity of a diruthenium tetrahydride complex towards three selected dihydroboranes was investigated. The use of [DurBH\(_{2}\)] (Dur=2,3,5,6-Me\(_{4}\)C\(_{6}\)H) and [(Me\(_{3}\)Si)\(_{2}\)NBH\(_{2}\)] led to the formation of bridging borylene complexes of the form [(Cp\(^{*}\)RuH)\(_{2}\)BR] (Cp\(^{*}\)=C\(_{5}\)Me\(_{5}\); 1 a: R=Dur; 1 b: R=N(SiMe\(_{3}\))\(_{2}\)) through oxidative addition of the B-H bonds with concomitant hydrogen liberation. Employing the more electron-deficient dihydroborane [3,5-(CF\(_{3}\))\(_{2}\)-C\(_{6}\)H\(_{3}\)BH\(_{2}\)] led to the formation of an anionic complex bearing a tetraarylated chain of four boron atoms, namely Li(THF)\(_{4}\)[(Cp\(^{*}\)Ru)\(_{2}\)B\(_{4}\)H\(_{5}\)(3,5-(CF\(_{3}\))\(_{2}\)C\(_{6}\)H\(_{3}\))\(_{4}\)] (4), through an unusual, incomplete threefold dehydrocoupling process. A comparative theoretical investigation of the bonding in a simplified model of 4 and the analogous complex nido-[1,2(Cp\(^{*}\)Ru)\(_{2}\)(μ-H)B\(_{4}\)H\(_{9}\)] (I) indicates that there appear to be no classical σ-bonds between the boron atoms in complex I, whereas in the case of 4 the B\(_{4}\) chain better resembles a network of three B-B σ bonds, the central bond being significantly weaker than the other two.}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Goebel2009, author = {G{\"o}bel, Thomas}, title = {Wolfram-Ruthenium-Zweikernkomplexe mit verbr{\"u}ckenden Bis(thioaldehyd)-Liganden}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-39912}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2009}, abstract = {Wolfram-Ruthenium-Zweikernkomplexe mit verbr{\"u}ckenden Bis(thioaldehyd)-Liganden: Synthese und Reaktivit{\"a}t in elektrophilen und nucleophilen Additionen.}, subject = {Metallorganische Chemie}, language = {de} } @phdthesis{Fischer2006, author = {Fischer, Frank}, title = {Indenyl-Ruthenium-Thioaldehyd-Komplexe : Synthese, Struktur und Additionsreaktionen}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-18166}, school = {Universit{\"a}t W{\"u}rzburg}, year = {2006}, abstract = {Neue Indenyl-Ruthenium-Thioaldehyd-Komplexe wurden in einer f{\"u}nfstufigen Synthese ausgehend von Ruthenium-(III)-chlorid erhalten.
