Assembly of Reaction Place by Using High Valent Metal Hydride Complexes

In this project, we have planned to explore the chemistry of high valent metal hydride complexes. The use of aryloxide-derived multidentate supporting ligands allows us to isolate a variety of hydride complexes of early transition metals in high oxidation states. We found that these electron-deficient hydride complexes are capable of activating small molecules. For example, a tantalum hydride complex undergo C-O bond cleavage of CO followed by C-C and C-H bond formation, resulting in formation of an ynolate complex.
