A Density Functional Study on [2s + 2s] Addition Reactions in Organometallic Chemistry

  • Chapter
Theoretical Aspects of Homogeneous Catalysis

Part of the book series: Catalysis by Metal Complexes ((CMCO,volume 18))

Abstract

Density Functional (DF) calculations have been carried out on organometallic [2s + 2s] addition processes. The study includes the σ-bond metathesis reaction (I): Cp2Sc-R + H-R′ → Cp2Sc-R′ ′ H-R (R = H, CH3; R′ = H, CH3, vinyl and acetylide); the double bond metathesis reaction (II): Cl2Mo(O)CH2 + H2C = CH2 → Cl2Mo(O)CH2 + H2C = CH2; and the triple bond exchange reaction (III): Cl2MoCH + HC ≡ CH→ Cl2MoCH + HC ≡ CH. An energy profile has been traced for each of the three reaction types with characterization of the four-center transition states (I) or intermediates (II, III) involved. Information is further provided on the geometries and relative energies of all reactants and products. The organometallic [2s + 2s] addition reactions are compared to the corresponding organic processes in an analysis based on qualitative molecular orbital theory.
