To determine the electron count for a metal complex:
Determine the oxidation state of the transition metal center(s) and
the metal centers resulting d-electron count. To do this one must:
a) note any overall charge on the metal complex
b) know the charges of the ligands bound to the metal
center
c) know the number of electrons being donated to the metal
center from each ligand
2) Add up the electron counts for the metal center and ligands
Counting the number of electronsCounting the number of electrons

Fe is 4s23d6 = 8e
each Co is neutral so Fe0
each CO donates 2 e = 10e
8e + 10e = 18ecoordinately saturated
RhPh3P Cl
Ph3P PPh3 Rh is s1d8 = 9e
since Cl is -1, Rh is +1 (the complex is neutral)
4 ligands x 2e each = 8e9e - 1e + 8e = 16e
therefore coordinately unsaturated

Synthesis of chemicals… pharmaceutical, agricultural
Catalytic converter … environmental
Biological system – efficient catalyst
Catalysis : Why?
Organometallic compounds, metals etc.
![Page 11: Transition metal organometallic compounds & Catalysis](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061411/568143f3550346895db07b35/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
How to select an efficient catalyst?
Activity: related to rate of reaction (also called turnover)
efficient catalyst: good activity
Turnover frequency (N) N = N = /[Q]/[Q]Large turnover frequency – efficient catalyst
Selectivity: Byproducts should be minimized
Lifetime: It is costly to replace the catalyst frequently
Cost: The acceptable cost depends upon the catalyst lifetime, product value lifetime and product value
Poisoning: decomposition of catalyst, adsorption of reactant/product

Geoffrey Wilkinson
• Born July 14, 1921, Yorkshire, England
• Ph.D from Cal Berkeley studying with Glenn Seaborg
• First published compound in 1965 in Journal of the Chemical Society - Chemical Communications
•Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1973 (shared with Ernst Otto Fischer) for their pioneering work, performed independently, on the chemistry of the organometallic, so called sandwich compounds.
Organometallic compounds prepared by Wilkinson in display at Harvard Univ.

Catalytic steps
(a) Ligand coordination and dissociation
Facile coordination of the reactant and facile loss of products.
Coordinatively unsaturated - 16-electron complexes
(b) Oxidative addition
Metal must possess a non-bonding electron pair
Coordinatively unsaturated
Oxidation of metal by two units – Mn to Mn+2
-occurs when a complex behaves simultaneously as a Lewis base and a Lewis acid

Rate of the reaction decreases as the alkyl substitution increases
Highly sensitive to the nature of the phosphine ligand
Analogous complexes with alkylphosphine ligands are inactive
Highly selective for C=C over C=O
