Unusual Ligand Transformations Initiated by dppm Deprotonation in Methylene-Bridged Rh/Os Complexes
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The reaction of [RhOs(CO)(3)(μ-CH(2))(dppm)(2)][CF(3)SO(3)] (dppm = μ-Ph(2)PCH(2)PPh(2)) with 1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-ylidene (IMe(4)) results in competing substitution of the Rh-bound carbonyl by IMe(4) and dppm deprotonation by IMe(4) to give the two products [RhOs(IMe(4))(CO)(2)(μ-CH(2))(dppm)(2)][CF(3)SO(3)] and [RhOs(CO)(3)(μ-CH(2))(μ-κ(1):η(2)-dppm-H)(dppm)] [3; dppm-H = bis(diphenylphosphino)methanide], respectively. In the latter product, the dppm-H group is P-bound to Os while bound to Rh by the other PPh(2) group and the adjacent methanide C. The reaction of the tetracarbonyl species [RhOs(CO)(4)(μ-CH(2))(dppm)(2)][CF(3)SO(3)] with IMe(4) results in the exclusive deprotonation of a dppm ligand to give [RhOs(CO)(4)(μ-CH(2))(μ-κ(1):κ(1)-dppm-H)(dppm)] (4) in which dppm-H is P-bound to both metals. Both deprotonated products are cleanly prepared by the reaction of their respective precursors with potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide. Reversible conversion of the μ-κ(1):η(2)-dppm-H complex to the μ-κ(1):κ(1)-dppm-H complex is achieved by the addition or removal of CO, respectively. In the absence of CO, compound 3 slowly converts in solution to [RhOs(CO)(3)(μ-κ(1):κ(1):κ(1)-Ph(2)PCHPPh(2)CH(2))(dppm)] (5) as a result of dissociation of the Rh-bound PPh(2) moiety of the dppm-H group and its attack at the bridging CH(2) group. Compound 4 is also unstable, yielding the ketenyl- and ketenylidene/hydride tautomers [RhOs(CO)(3)(μ-κ(1):η(2)-CHCO)(dppm)(2)] (6a) and [RhOs(H)(CO)(3)(μ-κ(1):κ(1)-CCO)(dppm)(2)] (6b), initiated by proton transfer from μ-CH(2) to dppm-H. Slow conversion of these tautomers to a pair of isomers of [RhOs(H)(CO)(3)(μ-κ(1):κ(1):κ(1)-Ph(2)PCH(COCH)PPh(2))(dppm)] (7a and 7b) subsequently occurs in which proton transfer from a dppm group to the ketenylidene fragment gives rise to coupling of the resulting dppm-H methanide C and the ketenyl unit. Attempts to couple the ketenyl- or ketenylidene-bridged fragments in 6a/6b with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) yield [RhOs(κ(1)-CHCO)(CO)(3)(μ-DMAD)(dppm)(2)], in which the ketenyl group is terminally bound to Os.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
