Bio-inspirierte Aktivierung von Kohlenstoffdioxid mittels Heterobimetallischer Komplexe
Biologische und Biomimetische Chemie
Zusammenfassung der Projektergebnisse
Within the my Emmy-Noether project, my group could make considerable progress in our aim to activate small molecules such as CO2 and could reach some important mile stones of the project proposal: 1. The synthesis of a modular tripodal ligand platform with different Lewis-acid/base properties was achieved. 2. Formation of monometallic and heterobimetallic Fe, Ni and Mo complexes was successfully performed. 3. We also could establish a Triphos-based Fe-hydride that allows for CO2 conversion into CO or formic acid depending on the solvent applied. 4. We could also show that a selective CO2 uptake into dinickel-azacryptands can be achieved and controlled by different substitution patterns on the central aromatic linker. 5. We are now able to synthesize a cryptand that allows for the selective coordination of two different metal ions in different oxidation states and shows no obvious metal ion scrambling. 6. Bimetallic cryptand complexes were shown to enable photocatalytic CO2 reduction. 7. Based on our assumption that compounds with bimetallic sites and a high sulfur content are able to perform CO2 reduction, we synthesized Fe4.5Ni4.5S8 as a heterogenous enzyme mimic. While showing a superior performance for the hydrogen evolution reaction in aqueous solutions, the material also shows a very good performance for the reduction of CO2. 8. Based on the heterogenous results, the material class of pentlandites was further exploited as a robust, highly conductive platform for electrochemical processes. The variable metallic composition enables to adjust the proton binding strength and with it the subsequent hydrogenation process, might it be the formation of H2, CO2 or any organic residue. Furthermore, we could unequivocally confirm some key claims previously raised in the original Emmy Noether proposal: 1. The substitution pattern in the apex of the tripodal ligands allows for fine-tuning of the electronic properties of the metal ions. 2. “Cage compounds”/azacryptands offer a protective ligand environment and allow for unprecedented metal coordination. However, their synthetic access is laborious, and alterations of the ligand framework are hard to perform. 3. Many of the suggested complexes allow for reaction with CO2 and CS2. 4. The interaction of two metal sites is beneficial for the activation of small molecules. The kind of substrate conversion is controlled by both the metals involved as well as the metal-metal distance.
