Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

The controlled catalytic functionalization of alkanes via the activation of C–H bonds is a significant challenge. Although C–H activation by transition metal catalysts is often suggested to operate via intermediate σ-alkane complexes, such transient species are difficult to observe due to their instability in solution. This instability may be controlled by use of solid/gas synthetic techniques that enable the isolation of single-crystals of well-defined σ-alkane complexes. Here we show that, using this unique platform, selective alkane C–H activation occurs, as probed by H/D exchange using D₂, and that five different isotopomers/isotopologues of the σ-alkane complex result, as characterized by single-crystal neutron diffraction studies for three examples. Low-energy fluxional processes associated with the σ-alkane ligand are identified using variable-temperature X-ray diffraction, solid-state NMR spectroscopy, and periodic DFT calculations. These observations connect σ-alkane complexes with their C–H activated products, and demonstrate that alkane-ligand mobility, and selective C–H activation, are possible when these processes occur in the constrained environment of the solid-state.
