Notable exceptions: • Electron-transfer reactions • Activation of a single substrate for external attack – peroxy-acids for olefin epoxidation – CO and olefins for nucleophilic attack 2 MAIN MECHANISTIC PATHWAYS ASSOCIATIVE (A): LnML’ + L’’ LnML’L’’ slow DISSOCIATIVE (D): L’’ LnML’ slow LnM + L’ fast LnML’’ fast LnML’’ + L’ DISSOCIATIVE LIGAND SUBSTITUTION Example: LnM CO 18 e LnM + CO 16 e L' LnM L' 18 e Factors influencing ease of dissociation: • 1st row < 2nd row > 3rd row • d8-ML5 > d10-ML4 > d6-ML6 • stable ligands (CO, olefins, Cl-) dissociate easily (as opposed to e.g. CH3, Cp). Ligand Substitution 7 DISSOCIATIVE SUBSTITUTION at ML6 16-e ML5 complexes are usually fluxional; the reaction proceeds with partial inversion, partial retention of stereochemistry. or 16-e 18-e oct SP Ligand Substitution distorted TBP 8 ASSOCIATIVE LIGAND SUBSTITUTION Example: LnM 16 e L' LnM 18 e L' -L L' 16 e Br(NH3)2PtCl2 - Clslow H2O - Cl Sometimes the solvent is involved.

In the ground state this property is called the trans influence.

Reactivity of cis-platin: Ligand Substitution 15 rate Rate = ks[ML4] = k1 [ML4][Y] Mechanism: Square pyramidal – trigonal bipyramid – with retention of configuration. Associative substitution with 18 e systems • Can occur if the metal can delocalize a pair of electrons onto one of its ligands LIGAND REARRANGEMENT Several ligands can switch between n-e and (n-2)-e situations, thus enabling associative reactions of an apparently saturated complex: M N O M 3-e N 1-e O O CO M R M M M 5-e 3-e R (1+2)-e 1-e Ligand Substitution 18 DISSOCIATIVE LIGAND SUBSTITUTION Example: LnM CO 18 e LnM + CO 16 e L' LnM L' 18 e Rate = k [ML6] Ligand Substitution 19 Rate of substitution of Ligands Rate of substitutions of a particular ligand is a function of ligand type. Ligands that are nuetral in their free state dissociate rather easily. Redox-induced ligand substitution Unlike 18-e complexes, 17-e and 19-e complexes are labile. Oxidation and reduction can induce rapid ligand substitution. + LnM - e- 17-e L' LnM L' + 19-e LnM 18-e + e- LnM19-e Ln-1M- + L 17-e Ligand Substitution 22 Redox-induced ligand substitution Fe(CO)4L Fe(CO)5 CO Fe(CO)4 Fe(CO)5 Fe(CO)4L L Initiation by added reductant. Sometimes, radical abstraction produces a 17-e species Ligand Substitution 23 Photochemical ligand substitution Visible light can excite an electron from an M-L bonding orbital to an M-L antibonding orbital (Ligand Field transition, LF). This often results in fast ligand dissociation. M(CO)6 d h d Ligand Substitution 24
