Mechanistic Studies of Reactions Catalyzed by Bi- and Trimetallic Complexes (B10*)

该3MET项目旨在发现由多金属均相催化剂的协同作用引起的新反应性。它调查的反应，已被证实涉及过渡金属络合物。它的重点是具有不寻常氧化态金属中心的金属络合物，例如Pd（I）和Rh（II）。它建立了结构活性关系的金属核心和桥接配体系统时，独特的反应性的物质出现。它使用化学计量实验和催化筛选结合DFT调查和动力学研究。它合理地将具有特殊催化活性的多金属加合物转化为具有高耐久性和高活性的实用催化剂。

This 3MET project aims to discover new reactivities induced by the cooperative action of multimetallic homogeneous catalysts. It investigates reactions that were confirmed to involve bimetallic transition metal complexes. It sets a focus on bimetallic complexes with metal centers in unusual oxidation states, e.g. Pd(I) and Rh(II). It establishes structure-activity relationships for metallic cores and bridging ligand systems whenever unique reactivity of the bimetallic species arises. It uses stoichiometric experiments and catalytic screening in combination with DFT investigations and kinetic studies. It rationally turns multimetallic adducts with unusual catalytic reactivity into practical catalysts with high durability and activity.
