    The nicotinamide coenzyme NADH, consumed in enantioselective reduction of ketones catalysed by alcohol dehydrogenases, needs to be regenerated in order to maintain enzymatic activity. We therefore studied the catalytic potential of the cationic complexes [(eta(5)-(CMe5)-Me-5)Rh(NnN)Cl](+) (1: N boolean AND N = 1,10-phenanthrohne; 2: NnN = 5 -nitro-1, 10-phenanthroline; 3: NnN = 5-amino-1, 1 0-phenanthroline), [(eta(5)-C5Me5) Ir(N boolean AND N)CI](+) (4: N boolean AND N = 5-nitro-1, 10-phenanthroline) and [(eta(6)-C-6,Me-6)Ru(N boolean AND N)Cl](+) (5: NnN = 5-nitro-1,10-phenanthroline), isolated as the water-soluble chloride salts, for transfer hydrogenation of NAD(+) to give NADH in aqueous solution. The best results were obtained with rhodium complex 1, which gave catalytic turnover frequencies up to 2000 h(-1) in aqueous solution at pH 7 and 60 degrees C with sodium formate as the hydrogen source. When this NADH-regenerating catalytic system is combined with NADH-dependent enzymes, it is possible to chemoenzymatically reduce prochiral ketones such as acetophenone or 4-phenylbutan-2-one with high enantioselectivity. Combination of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase (HLADH) or alcohol dehydrogenase from Rhodococcus sp. (S-ADH) with 1/formate as the NADH-regenerating system resulted in ee values up to 98 %, depending on the nature of the substrate and the enzyme. In order to explain the different catalytic activities, the electrochemical behaviour of complexes 1-5 has been studied. ((c) Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2007)

    The reaction of 1,4-dimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane (L–Me2) with FeSO4 • 7H2O in aqueous ethanol gives, in the presence of sodium carboxylates, hydrogen peroxide, sodium hydroxide and KPF6, the dinuclear Fe(III)–Fe(III) complex cations [(L–Me2)2Fe2(O)(OOCR) 2]2+ (R = H: 1, R = CH3: 2, R = C6H5: 3), which crystallise as the hexafluorophosphate salts. The corresponding reaction with RuCl3 • nH2O does not work, however, the analogous Ru(III)–Ru(III) complex [(L–Me2)2Ru2 (O)(OOCCH3)2]2+ (5) can be synthesised by reacting Ru(dmso)4Cl2 with L–Me2, HCl and air in refluxing ethanol, followed by addition of sodium acetate, the mononuclear intermediate (L–Me2)RuCl3 • H2O (4) being also isolated and characterised. The reaction of L–Me2, sodium acetate, hydrogen peroxide and triethylamine with CoCl2 • 6H2O in acetonitrile yields, however, the hydroxo-bridged Co(III)–Co(III) complex [(L–Me2)2Co2 (OH)(OOCCH3)2]3+ (6). The molecular structures of 2, 5 and 6, solved by single-crystal X-ray structure analyses of the hexafluorophosphate salts, reveal for the orange crystals of [2][PF6]2 a Fe–Fe distance of 3.104(1) Å, for the purple crystals of [5][PF6]2 a Ru–Ru distance of 3.230(1) Å, and for the violet crystals of [6][PF6]3 • (CH3)2CO a Co–Co distance of 3.358(1) Å. All six complexes show catalytic activity for the oxidation of isopropanol with hydrogen peroxide in water to give acetone in the presence of ascorbic acid as co-catalyst.
