CO2 conversion to phenyl isocyanates by uranium(VI) bis(imido) complexes
2019
Uranium(VI) trans-bis(imido) complexes [U(κ4-{(tBu2ArO)2Me2-cyclam})(NPh)(NPhR)] react with CO2 to eliminate phenyl isocyanates and afford uranium(VI) trans-[O=U=NR]2+ complexes, including [U((κ4-{(tBu2ArO)2Me2-cyclam})(NPh)(O)] that was crystallographically characterized. DFT studies indicate that the reaction proceeds by endergonic formation of a cycloaddition intermediate; the secondary reaction to form a dioxo uranyl complex is kinetically hindered.
