Zirconaziridinium ions [CpZr(η-CHNR)] can potentially activate H by two routes: σ-bond metathesis or FLP reactivity. We show here that Zr-C hydrogenolysis by σ-bond metathesis precedes and enables subsequent heterolytic H cleavage through FLP pathways. DFT calculations show the involvement of transition states with approximately linear NHH and bent ZrHH arrangements without any direct Zr-amine interaction.
锆氮丙啶离子[CpZr(η-CHNR)] 可能通过两种途径活化氢:σ键复分解或FLP反应性。我们在此表明,通过σ键复分解进行的Zr-C氢解先于并通过FLP途径实现随后的异裂氢裂解。密度泛函理论计算表明,过渡态的参与具有近似线性的NHH和弯曲的ZrHH排列,且没有任何直接的Zr-胺相互作用。
