Frontiers in organometallic chemistry • Definition of organometallic chemistry: transformations of organic compounds using metals. • Organometallic chemistry is at the interface between inorganic and organic chemistry. • Inorganic: subset of coordination chemistry • Organic: subset of synthetic methods • Other interdisciplinary areas • Bioorganometallic chemistry • Surface organometallic chemistry • Fullerene-metal complexes
Energy Consumption, 2009 http://www.eia.doe.gov/oiaf/ieo/highlights.html
Catalysis for Energy • Understand mechanisms and dynamics • Design and control the synthesis of catalyst structures DOE workshop 2007
Catalysis • Environmental : green chemistry, atom efficiency, waste remediation, recycling • Polymeric materials: new polymers and polymer architectures, new monomers, new processes • Pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals: demand for greater chemo-, regio-, stereo-, and enantioselectivity • Feedstocks: practical alternatives to petroleum and natural gas

Ligands in organometallic chemistry • Neutral 2e donors: PR3 (phosphines), CO (carbonyl), R2C=CR2 (alkenes), RC≡CR (alkynes, can also donate 4e), N≡CR (nitriles) • Anionic 2e donors: X- (halide), CH3- (methyl), CR3- (alkyl), Ph- (phenyl), H- (hydride) The following can also donate 4e if needed, but initially count them as 2e donors (unless they are acting as bridging ligands): OR- (alkoxide), SR- (thiolate), NR2- (inorganic amide), PR2- (phosphide) • Anionic 4e donors: C3H5- (allyl), O2- (oxide), S2- (sulfide), NR2- (imide), CR22- (alkylidene)and from the previous list: OR- (alkoxide), SR- (thiolate), NR2- (inorganic amide), PR2- (phosphide) • Anionic 6e donors: Cp- (cyclopentadienyl), O2- (oxide) • Z ligands: do not bring e to the metal: BR3, AlR3
Nomenclature h1-dppe / k1-dppe - bridging ligand
Ordering: from ACS publications • In formulas with Cp (cyclopentadienyl) ligands, the Cp usually comes first, followed by the metal center: Cp2TiCl2 • Other anionic multi-electron donating ligands are also often listed in front of the metal. • In formulas with hydride ligands, the hydride is sometimes listed first. • Rule # 1, however, takes precedence over this rule: HRh(CO)(PPh3)2 and Cp2TiH2 • Bridging ligands are usually placed next to the metals in question, then followed by the other ligands • Note that rules 1 & 2 take precedence: Co2(m-CO)2(CO)6, Rh2(m-Cl)2(CO)4, Cp2Fe2(m-CO)2(CO)2
