Transition metal hydroxide complexes are coordination complexes containing one or more hydroxide (OH) ligands. The inventory is very large.

Hydroxide as a ligand

Hydroxide is classified as an X ligand in the Covalent bond classification method. In the usual electron counting method, it is a one-electron ligand when terminal and a three-electron ligand when doubly bridging.

From the electric structure perspective, hydroxide is a strong pi-donor ligand, akin to fluoride. One consequence is that few polyhydroxide complexes are low spin. Another consequence is that electron-precise hydroxide complexes tend to be rather nucleophilic.

Representative complexes

Many hydroxo complexes are prepared by treating metal halides with hydroxide salts. Hydrolysis of basic ligands (amides, alkyls) also produces hydroxide complexes.

Homoleptic complexes

Only a few homoleptic hydroxide complexes are known. These include the d species [Pt(OH)6] and the d complexes [Ti(OH)6] and [Zr2(OH)8(mu−OH)2].

Mixed ligand complexes

Many complexes are known where hydroxide shares the coordination sphere with other ligands. One pair of such complexes are {2(mu-OH)3} and its derivative {2(mu-OH)2}.

Reactions

Prominent reactions of metal hydroxides are their acid-base behavior. Protonation of metal hydroxides gives aquo complexes:

LnM−OH + H ⇌ LnM−OH+2 where Ln is the ligand complement on the metal M

Thus, aquo ligand is a weak acid, of comparable strength to acetic acid (pKa of about 4.8).

In principle but not very commonly, metal hydroxides undergo deprotonation, yielding oxo complexes:

LnM−OH ⇌ LnM=O +H

Characteristically, hydroxide ligands are compact and basic. They tend to function as bridging ligands. One manifestation of this property is the preponderance of di-and polymetallic hydroxide complexes. A practical consequence of this feature is the tendency of metal aquo complexes to form precipitates of meta hydroxides.

Bioinorganic chemistry

Active site of hemerythrin before and after oxygenation.

Hemerythrins, proteins responsible for oxygen (O2) transport in some animals have an diiron hydroxide active site. The hydroxide ligand engages the bound O2 through hydrogen bonding.

The nucleophilicity of hydroxo ligands is relevant to the role of some M-OH centers in enzymology. For example, in carbonic anhydrase, a zinc hydroxide binds carbon dioxide:

LnM−OH + CO2 ⇌ LnMO−O−CO2H

The oxygen evolving complex (OEC) consists of a Mn-Ca-O-OH cluster that is responsible for the biosynthesis of O2. It is proposed that the O-O bond forming step involves a hydroxide ligand.

Metalloproteinases catalyze the hydrolysis peptide bond. The catalytic center is such enzymes often involves metal hydroxides.
