          Abstract

          The chemical and electrochemical one-electron oxidation of [Pd(IPr) 2] ( 1) leads to the formation of mononuclear palladium(I) complex [Pd(IPr) 2][PF 6] ( 2). This bench-stable metalloradical has been fully characterized and its structure confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis. EPR and DFT studies confirm the localization of the unpaired electron onto the metal center. Low temperature NMR and EPR measurements reveal the ability of complex 2 to reversibly coordinate and reduce the dioxygen molecule, leading to the formation of a three-coordinate complex, [Pd II(IPr) 21-O 2)] + ( 4), in which the unpaired electron has been transferred to the superoxido ligand.

          Abstract

          The synthesis and full characterization of the stable palladium(I) metalloradical [Pd(IPr) 2][PF 6] ( 2) is reported. The unpaired electron is located at the metal center according to the experimental (EPR) and theoretical (DFT) evidence. Complex 2 can reversibly bind and transfer an electron to a dioxygen molecule at a low temperature to form the tricoordinate palladium(II) superoxido complex [Pd(IPr) 21-O 2)] +.

          EasySpin, a comprehensive software package for spectral simulation and analysis in EPR.

          EasySpin, a computational package for spectral simulation and analysis in EPR, is described. It is based on Matlab, a commercial technical computation software. EasySpin provides extensive EPR-related functionality, ranging from elementary spin physics to data analysis. In addition, it provides routines for the simulation of liquid- and solid-state EPR and ENDOR spectra. These simulation functions are built on a series of novel algorithms that enhance scope, speed and accuracy of spectral simulations. Spin systems with an arbitrary number of electron and nuclear spins are supported. The structure of the toolbox as well as the theoretical background underlying its simulation functionality are presented, and some illustrative examples are given.

              Steric and electronic properties of N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC): a detailed study on their interaction with Ni(CO)4.

              N-heterocyclic carbene ligands IMes (1), SIMes (2), IPr (3), SIPr (4), and ICy (5) react with Ni(CO)(4) to give the saturated tricarbonyl complexes Ni(CO)(3)(IMes) (8), Ni(CO)(3)(SIMes) (9), Ni(CO)(3)(IPr) (10), Ni(CO)(3)(SIPr) (11), and Ni(CO)(3)(ICy) (12), respectively. The electronic properties of these complexes have been compared to their phosphine analogues of general formula Ni(CO)(3)(PR(3)) by recording their nu(CO) stretching frequencies. While all of these NHCs are better donors than tertiary phosphines, the differences in donor properties between ligands 1-5 are surprisingly small. Novel, unsaturated Ni(CO)(2)(IAd) (13) and Ni(CO)(2)(I(t)()Bu) (14) compounds are obtained from the reaction of Ni(CO)(4) with IAd (6) and I(t)()Bu (7). Complexes 13 and 14 are highly active toward substitution of the NHC as well as the carbonyl ligands. This has allowed the determination of Ni-C(NHC) bond dissociation energies and the synthesis of various unsaturated Ni(0) and Ni(II) complexes. Computational studies on compounds 8-14 are in line with the experimental findings and show that IAd (6) and I(t)()Bu (7) are more bulky than IMes (1), SIMes (2), IPr (3), SIPr (4), and ICy (5). Furthermore, a method based on %V(bur) values has been developed for the direct comparison of steric requirements of NHCs and tertiary phosphines. Complexes 8-14, as well as NiCl(C(3)H(5))(I(t)()Bu) (16) and NiBr(C(3)H(5))(I(t)()Bu) (17), have been characterized by X-ray crystallography.
