Anionic Tantalum Dihydride Complexes: Heterobimetallic Coupling Reactions and Reactivity toward Small-Molecule Activation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The anionic dihydride complex [Cp2TaH2](-) was synthesized as a well-defined molecular species by deprotonation of Cp2TaH3 while different solubilizing agents, such as [2.2.2]cryptand and 18-crown-6, were applied to encapsulate the alkali-metal counterion. The ion pairs were characterized by multiple spectroscopic methods as well as X-ray crystallography, revealing varying degrees of interaction between the hydride ligands of the anion and the respective countercation in solution and in the solid state. The [Cp2TaH2](-) complex anion shows slow exchange of the hydride ligands when kept under a D2 atmosphere, but a very fast reaction is observed when [Cp2TaH2](-) is reacted with CO2, from which Cp2TaH(CO) is obtained as the tantalum-containing reaction product, along with inorganic salts. Furthermore, [Cp2TaH2](-) can act as a synthon in heterobimetallic coupling reactions with transition-metal halide complexes. Thus, the heterobimetallic complexes Cp2Ta(μ-H)2Rh(dippp) and Cp2Ta(μ-H)2Ru(H)(CO)(P(i)Pr3)2 were synthesized and characterized by various spectroscopies and via single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The new hydride bridged tantalum-rhodium heterobimetallic complex is cleaved under a CO atmosphere to yield mononuclear species and slowly exchanges protons and hydride ligands when exposed to D2 gas.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
