De: 5. NbCl5 -tertiary amines: Ammonium salts have been isolated in a number of cases as
a result of the in situ production of HCl. The first structurally-characterized Nb(V) chloride
amido complex has been accessed by the straightforward 1:1 M reaction of NbCl5 with
NHEt2. Evidence has been collected for the occurrence of electron interchange in the
reactions of NbCl5 with trialkylamines, resulting in reduction of the metal centre and
amine C–H bond activation.
De: 4. Review NbCl5 reactions: The chemistry of niobium and tantalum pentahalides,
MX5, with oxygen compounds has been elucidated in the very last years. Different types of
coordination adducts (neutral or ionic) can be isolated upon reaction of controlled
amounts of oxygen donors with MX5. The formation of coordination compounds may be the
first step of successive activation reaction involving the organic substrate, sometimes
unusual in the context of transition metal derivatives. The progress in the knowledge of the
direct interaction of MX5 with oxygen compounds may serve in the full comprehension of
the existing, relatedMX5-mediated processes, and itmay hopefully promote the development
of new MX5-mediated syntheses.
III. El mecanismo 1 tiene en cuenta la coordinación con una sola molecula de NbCl5 que se
daría con el Cl y la amina (no probable).
IV. El mecanismo 2 tiene en cuenta la coordinación con dos atomos de Nb. Similar a la
coordinación de NbCl5 con aminoácidos. (Fig.5 y Fig 6 del artículo 3. NbCl5-aminoacids).
La corroboración de las bandas en FTIR debería dar cuenta de esto. Duda hay liberación de
HCl lo que hace que los reusos sean tan bajos? No es catálisis heterogénea es homogénea?
V. yo he hecho unos cálculos teóricos pero no me da la capacidad de mi PC. Así que mejor
envío eso al brasilero. Hay mucho reporatdo con NbCl5 pero no explican cómo ocurren las
reacciones.

Remarks
Mechanism III
I. See however that in this paper (reference n.1 in the e-mail) the Nb is bound to a carbon
atom and not to the nitrogen. But once you are sure that a lot of amines is necessary, the
excess of R’-NH2 reacting with carboxyl acids would lead to their protonated forms,
right? In this case, perhaps the ammonium should ease the chlorine release from the
catalyst (Mechanism IV), as the backwards reaction in the scheme 1 of the reference
number 5.
IV. As the papers you sent mentioned, the reaction between NbCl5 and amines would
release HCl. Also, in the mechanism IV would be possible to take into account the
interaction between the animes and Nb2Cl9+ as you pointed out, that could be neutralized
by RCOO- species, suppressing the catalyst recovering.
Mechanism IV
Both mechanism III and IV suggests the existence of RCOCl species as
intermediates. Would them be possible to be detected?
A way to distinguish the mechanism III and IV is by the formation of HCl.
The mechanism IV counts on a decreasing of pH in the initial steps. Could
this be confirmed?
II. I’m afraid that RCOO- are strong ligands to Nb, generating too stable species to proceed
with the reaction (paper number 2). Anyway, there is a chance for RCOCl species to not
be detected. Therefore, we would like to suggest the mechanism V, which is similar to
the DCC mechanism for amide synthesis from carboxylic acids and amines. It is also in
line with the excess of amine in order to generate the protonated forms. The mechanism
V should be an alternative in case you do not find any sign of RCOCl species.
