Research Abstract |
Transition metal cyanocarbanions are important intermediates for carbon-carbon bond forming reactions. Both C- and N- bound cyanocarbanion complexes were found to be synthesized efficiently, and their interconversion between the two isomers can be controlled by changing a metal center, ligands, and α-substituted group. Spectroscopic and kinetic studies revealed that the isomerization undergoes via a mechanism which is intramolecular slipping of the metal throughout the π-bond of nitrile ligands. Furthermore, reactivities of a series of N- bound ruthenium cyanocarbanion complexes towards aldehydes, ketones, alkynes, and nitriles were investigated by stoichiometiric and catalytic reactions. These studies gave important information about the reaction mechanism of the catalytic Aldol and Michael type reaction, which were previously developed by us.
