Snapshots of a Migrating H‐Atom: Characterization of a Reactive Iron(III) Indenide Hydride and its Nearly Isoenergetic Ring‐Protonated Iron(I) Isomer
Abstract
Abstract We report the characterization of an S = iron π‐complex, [Fe(η 6 ‐IndH)(depe)] + (Ind=Indenide (C 9 H 7 − ), depe=1,2‐bis(diethylphosphino)ethane), which results via C−H elimination from a transient Fe III hydride, [Fe(η 3 :η 2 ‐Ind)(depe)H] + . Owing to weak M−H/C−H bonds, these species appear to undergo proton‐coupled electron transfer (PCET) to release H 2 through bimolecular recombination. Mechanistic information, gained from stoichiometric as well as computational studies, reveal the open‐shell π‐arene complex to have a BDFE C‐H value of ≈50 kcal mol −1 , roughly equal to the BDFE Fe‐H of its Fe III −H precursor (Δ G °≈0 between them). Markedly, this reactivity differs from related Fe(η 5 ‐Cp/Cp*) compounds, for which terminal Fe III −H cations are isolable and have been structurally characterized, highlighting the effect of a benzannulated ring (indene). Overall, this study provides a structural, thermochemical, and mechanistic foundation for the characterization of indenide/indene PCET precursors and outlines a valuable approach for the differentiation of a ring‐ versus a metal‐bound H‐atom by way of continuous‐wave (CW) and pulse EPR (HYSCORE) spectroscopic measurements.
