CO2 and SO2 activation by a Cr–Cr quintuple bond

Abstract

A quintuply bonded dichromium complex stabilized by aminopyridinato ligands activates CO2 and SO2 by reducing the (formal) bond order of the metal–metal bonds. Oxygen abstraction is observed during CO2 activation. SO2 activation proceeds via formation of a unique dithionite complex/coordination. Furthermore, N2O activation was investigated and the formation of a tetrameric Cr–oxo complex was observed.
