Flash Communication: Bismuthinidenes as Lewis Bases in Reversible C(sp3)–O Bond Cleavage
Herein, we describe a unique example of a low-valent monocoordinated Bi(I) complex acting as a Lewis base partner in a FLP activation reaction. The interplay between a bulky and rigid Bi(I) and the Lewis acidic tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane (BCF) enables the opening of tetrahydrofuran (THF), delivering a zwitterionic Bi(+)/B(−) product, which could be isolated and characterized spectroscopically and through SC-XRD. The zwitterionic bismuth complex exhibits remarkable spectroscopic features in the visible range, namely an LMCT band corresponding to the transition from the aromatic fluorene to the highly electron-poor cationic bismuth center. Interestingly, excitation of this band results in ring-closing C–O bond formation and subsequent recovery of the Bi(I), thus constituting a photoreversible FLP activation with bismuth.
期刊介绍:
Organometallics is the flagship journal of organometallic chemistry and records progress in one of the most active fields of science, bridging organic and inorganic chemistry. The journal publishes Articles, Communications, Reviews, and Tutorials (instructional overviews) that depict research on the synthesis, structure, bonding, chemical reactivity, and reaction mechanisms for a variety of applications, including catalyst design and catalytic processes; main-group, transition-metal, and lanthanide and actinide metal chemistry; synthetic aspects of polymer science and materials science; and bioorganometallic chemistry.
