Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It has been documented that pyridine-based PNP-pincer ligands coordinated with transition metals undergo deprotonation at the benzylic position. The resulting ligands having a dearomatized pyridine unit act as a strong base, to cause metal-ligand cooperative activation of chemical bonds in a heterolytic manner. In this study, we attempted to improve the reactivity by introducing a phosphaalkene unit possessing strong π-accepting properties toward transition metals into the ligand framework. We succeeded in the synthesis of PNP-pincer type phosphaalkene complexes, which exhibit extremely high reactivity toward N-H bond cleavage of ammonia and catalytic hydrosilylation of carbon dioxide.
