Einfluß von Ringgröße und Substitution auf die oxidative Addition cyclischer Carbonsäureanhydride und -imide an den Rumpf (N N)Niº (N N = α, α′-Dipyridyl,Tetramethylethylendiamin)

Influence of Ring Size and Substitution on the Oxidative Addition of Cyclic Carboxylic Acid Anhydrides and Imides to the Moiety (N N)Ni^º (N N = bipy, tetramethylethylenediamine) (dipy)(COD) or a mixture of tmed/Ni(COD)₂ easily react with cyclic carboxylic acid anhydrides by an oxidative addition. After decarbonylation with succinic acid anhydride a five-membered, with glutaric acid anhydride a six-membered metallacycle are formed – or With diphenic acid anhydride we obtained a seven-membered chelate in the boat form ( XIV ). Along their bond axis the two aromatic rings are twisted by 127°, i.e. the conjugative interaction is weak. Itaconic acid anhydride, as a polar olefine, can coordinate to the moiety (tmed)Ni side-on. But also on oxidative addition, yielding the five-membered chelate ( XVI ), is possible. The five-membered chelate is the only Product of the reaction with (dipy)Ni(COD). 1.8-naphthalic acid anhydride (NSA), because of its rigidity, is not suitable for an oxidative addition to electron-rich nickel(O) complexes. But as a π acceptor ligand with a relatively low half wave potential NSA displaces COD of (dipy)Ni(COD) forming (dipy)Ni(NSA) · 0.25 THF ( XVIII ). One of the final products of the acidolysis of [(dipy)Ni]₂(PPI) · 1.5 THF ( XIX PPI=N-phenyl phthalimide) is benzanilide, a compound which might be an indicator of an oxidative additive connected with an -bond breaking in the course of the synthesis of XIX . But ir-data shows the framework of PPI to be preserved in the complex XIX . Evidently the bond breaking proceeds in the course of the acidolysis.     

Kohlenwasserstoffverbrückte Metallkomplexe. L Dicarbonyl‐cyclopentadienyl‐pyridoyl‐eisen‐Komplexe als Liganden

Hydrocarbon‐bridged Metal Complexes. L Dicarbonyl Cyclopentadienyl Pyridoyl Iron Complexes as Ligands Dicarbonyl‐cyclopentadienyl‐2‐ and 3‐pyridoyl‐iron (L¹, L²) and 2,6‐dicarbonyl‐pyridine‐bis(dicarbonyl‐cyclopentadienyl‐iron) (L³) function as ligands in metal complexes and the N,O‐chelates [(OC)₄M(L¹)] (M = Mo, W, 8 a, b ) and [(Ph₃P)₂Cu(L¹)]⁺BF₄^– ( 9 ) were prepared. Monodentate coordination of L¹ and L² through the pyridine N‐atom occurs in the palladium(II) complexes [Cl₂Pd(PnBu₃)(L¹)] ( 10 ), [Cl₂Pd(PnBu₃)(L²)] ( 11 ) and [Cl₂Pd(L²)₂] ( 12 ). Ligand L³ forms the O,N,O‐bis(chelate) [Cl₂Zn(L³)] ( 13 ). The crystal and molecular structures of L¹, 8 b (M = W), 9–11 and 13 were determined by X‐ray diffraction.     

Emissive and Cell‐Permeable 3‐Pyridyl‐ and 3‐Pyrazolyl‐4‐azaxanthone Lanthanide Complexes and Their Behaviour in cellulo

A series of seven emissive europium(III) and terbium(III) complexes was prepared, incorporating a 3‐pyridyl‐4‐azaxanthone or 3‐pyrazolyl‐4‐azaxanthone sensitising moiety within a polydentate macrocyclic ligand. High overall emission quantum yields in aqueous media are attenuated in the presence of protein or certain oxy anions due to displacement of the N,N′‐chelated sensitiser. Nevertheless, these complexes are taken into cells and tend to localise over the first few hours in mitochondria before being trafficked to endosomal compartments. Cell uptake studies, in the presence of competitive inhibitors or promoters of well‐defined uptake pathways, reveal a common uptake mechanism involving macropinocytosis.     

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität von η1und η3‐Allyl‐Rhenium‐Carbonylen

Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity of η¹‐ and η³‐Allyl Rhenium Carbonyls In (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ one CO ligand can be substituted by PPh₃, pyridine, isocyanide and benzonitrile. With 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethylene, 1,1′‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene and 1,2‐bis(4‐pyridyl)ethane dinuclear ligand bridged complexes are obtained. The η³‐η¹ conversion of the allyl ligand occurs on reaction of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ with the bidendate ligands 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane and 1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphino)propane and with 2,2′‐bipyridine (L–L) which gives the complexes (η¹‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(L–L). By reaction of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane the allyl group is protonated and under elemination of propene the complex (OC)₃Re(Ph₂PCHPPh₂)(η¹‐Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂) ( 19 ) with a diphosphinomethanide ligand is formed. On heating solutions of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ and (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(CN‐2,5‐Me₂C₆H₃) ( 5 ) in methanol the methoxy bridged compounds Re₄(CO)₁₂(OH)(OMe)₃ and Re₂(CO)₄(CN‐2,5‐Me₂C₆H₃)₄(μ‐OMe)₂ ( 20 ) were isolated. The crystal structures of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(CNCH₂SiMe₃) ( 4 ), [(η³‐C₃H₅)(OC)₃Re]₂‐ (μ‐bis‐(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) ( 8 ), (η¹‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃‐ (bpy) ( 14 ), of 19 , 20 and of (OC)₃Re‐[Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂]Cl ( 16 ) were determined by X‐ray diffraction.     

Cyano‐Bridged ‘Oximato’ Complexes: Synthesis,Structure, and Catalase‐Like Activities

The reaction of the ‘oximato’‐ligand precursor A (Fig. 1) and metal salts with KCN gave two mononuclear complexes [ML(CN)(H₂O)_n](ClO₄) ( 1 and 2 ; L={N‐(hydroxy‐κO)‐α‐oxo‐N′‐[(pyridin‐2‐yl‐κN)methyl[1,1′‐biphenyl]‐4‐ethanimidamidato‐κN′}; M=Co^II ( 1 ), Cu^II ( 2 ); n=2 for Co^II, n=0 for Cu^II; Figs. 2 and 3). The new cyano‐bridged pentanuclear ‘oximato’ complexes [{ML(H₂O)_n(NC)}₄M¹(H₂O)_x](ClO₄)₂ ( 3 – 6 ) and trinuclear complexes [{ML(H₂O)_n(NC)}₂M¹L](ClO₄) ( 7 – 10 ) ([M¹=Mn^II, Cu^II; x=2 for Mn^II, x=0 for Cu^II] were synthesized from mononuclear complexes and characterized by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductance, and IR and thermal analysis. The four [ML(CN)(H₂O)_n]⁺ moieties are connected by a metal(II) ion in the pentanuclear complexe 3 – 6 , each one involving four cyano bridging ligands (Fig. 4). The central metal ion displays a square‐planar or octahedral geometry, with the cyano bridging ligands forming the equatorial plane. The axial positions are occupied by two aqua ligands in the case of the central Mn‐atom. The two [ML(CN)(H₂O)_n]⁺ moieties and an ‘oximato’ ligand are connected by a metal(II) ion in the trinuclear complexes 7 – 10 , each one involving two cyano bridging ligands (Fig. 5). The central metal ions display a distorted square‐pyramidal geometry, with two cyano bridging ligands and the donor atoms of the tridentate ‘oximato’ ligand. Moreover catalytic activities of the complexes for the disproportionation of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) were also investigated in the presence of 1H‐imidazole. The synthesized homopolynuclear Cu^II complexes 6 and 10 displayed eficiency in disproportion reactions of H₂O₂ producing H₂O and dioxygen thus showing catalase‐like activity.     

Diimido‐, Imido(oxo)‐, Dioxo‐ und Imido(alkyliden)‐Halbsandwich‐Verbindungen über selektive Hydrolyse und α—H‐Abstraktion an Organylkomplexen des sechswertigen Molybdäns und Wolframs

Diimido, Imido Oxo, Dioxo, and Imido Alkylidene Halfsandwich Compounds via Selective Hydrolysis and α—H Abstraction in Molybdenum(VI) and Tungsten(VI) Organyl Complexes Organometal imides [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)₂Ph] (M = Mo, W, R = H, Me, R′ = Mes, tBu) 4 — 8 can be prepared by reaction of halfsandwich complexes [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)₂Cl] with phenyl lithium in good yields. Starting from phenyl complexes 4 — 8 as well as from previously described methyl compounds [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)₂Me] (M = Mo, W), reactions with aqueous HCl lead to imido(oxo) methyl and phenyl complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)(O)(R)] M = Mo, R = Me ( 9 ), Ph ( 10 ); M = W, R = Ph ( 11 ) and dioxo complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(O)₂(CH₃)] M = Mo ( 12 ), M = W ( 13 ). Hydrolysis of organometal imides with conservation of M‐C σ and π bonds is in fact an attractive synthetic alternative for the synthesis of organometal oxides with respect to known strategies based on the oxidative decarbonylation of low valent alkyl CO and NO complexes. In a similar manner, protolysis of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)W(NtBu)₂(CH₃)] and [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)Mo(NtBu)₂(CH₃)] by HCl gas leads to [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)W(NtBu)Cl₂(CH₃)] 14 und [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)Mo(NtBu)Cl₂(CH₃)] 15 with conservation of the M‐C bonds. The inert character of the relatively non‐polar M‐C σ bonds with respect to protolysis offers a strategy for the synthesis of methyl chloro complexes not accessible by partial methylation of [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)Cl₃] with MeLi. As pure substances only trimethyl compounds [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NtBu)(CH₃)₃] 16 ‐ 18 , M = Mo, W, R = H, Me, are isolated. Imido(benzylidene) complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)(CHPh)(CH₂Ph)] M = Mo ( 19 ), W ( 20 ) are generated by alkylation of [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)Cl₃] with PhCH₂MgCl via α‐H abstraction. Based on nmr data a trend of decreasing donor capability of the ligands [NtBu]^2— > [O]^2— > [CHR]^2— ? 2 [CH₃]^— > 2 [Cl]^— emerges.

By‐product in the reaction of 2 a with dppe is the tetranuclear complex [(S‐Alkyne)Cu(μ‐X)₂Cu(μ‐dppe)₂Cu(μ‐X)₂Cu(S‐Alkyne)] ( 8 ). In case of the compounds 7 prolonged reaction times yield the alkyne‐free dinuclear copper complexes [Cu₂X₂(dppe)₃] ( 9 ) ( 9 a : X = Cl, 9 b : X = Br, 9 c : X = I)). X‐ray diffraction studies were carried out with the new compounds 6 a , 6 b , 7 b , 8 , and 9 c .

Under cleavage of trimethylchlorosilane the thermolysis of 1 at 160 °C leads to the formation of the phosphoraneiminato complex [BeCl(μ₃‐NPEt₃)]₄ ( 2 ) with heterocubane structure. In the presence of BeCl₂ 1 reacts in the melt to give the phosphoraneiminato complex [Be₄Cl₄(μ₃‐Cl)(μ₃‐NPEt₃)₃] ( 3 ), the structure of which corresponds with the structure of 2 by substitution of a ligand (μ₃‐NPEt₃)^— by a μ₃‐chloro ligand. As a by‐product from the synthesis of 2 in dichloromethane solution the phosphaneimine complex [BeCl₂(μ‐HNPEt₃)]₂·CH₂Cl₂ ( 4 ·CH₂Cl₂) can be obtained.

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität von η3‐1,2‐Diphosphaallylkomplexen sowie von [{(η5‐C5H5)(CO)2W–Co(CO)3}{μ‐AsCH(SiMe3)2}(μ‐CO)]

Syntheses, Structure and Reactivity of η³‐1,2‐Diphosphaallyl Complexes and [{(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W–Co(CO)₃}{μ‐AsCH(SiMe₃)₂}(μ‐CO)] Reaction of ClP=C(SiMe₂iPr)₂ ( 3 ) with Na[Mo(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₅)] afforded the phosphavinylidene complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo=P=C(SiMe₂iPr)₂] ( 4 ) which in situ was converted into the η¹‐1,2‐diphosphaallyl complex [η⁵‐(C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η³‐tBuPPC(SiMe₂iPr)₂] ( 6 ) by treatment with the phosphaalkene tBuP=C(NMe₂)₂. The chloroarsanyl complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₃M–As(Cl)CH(SiMe₃)₂] [where M = Mo ( 9 ); M = W ( 10 )] resulted from the reaction of Na[M(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₅)] (M = Mo, W) with Cl₂AsCH(SiMe₃)₂. The tungsten derivative 10 and Na[Co(CO)₄] underwent reaction to give the dinuclear μ‐arsinidene complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W–Co(CO)₃{μ‐AsCH(SiMe₃)₂}(μ‐CO)] ( 11 ). Treatment of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η³‐tBuPPC(SiMe₃)₂}] ( 1 ) with an equimolar amount of ethereal HBF₄ gave rise to a 85/15 mixture of the saline complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η²‐tBu(H)P–P(F)CH(SiMe₃)₂}]BF₄ ( 18 ) and [Cp(CO)₂Mo{F₂PCH(SiMe₃)₂}(tBuPH₂)]BF₄ ( 19 ) by HF‐addition to the PC bond of the η³‐diphosphaallyl ligand and subsequent protonation ( 18 ) and/or scission of the PP bond by the acid ( 19 ). Consistently 19 was the sole product when 1 was allowed to react with an excess of ethereal HBF₄. The products 6 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 18 and 19 were characterized by means of spectroscopy (IR, ¹H‐, ¹³C{¹H}‐, ³¹P{¹H}‐NMR, MS). Moreover, the molecular structures of 6 , 11 and 18 were determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis.

The reaction of octamethyl tetrathiadispiro[3.2.3.2]dodecane‐2,9‐dione ( 3 ) with trifluoroperacetic acid at –50 °C yielded the corresponding 5‐oxide 4 . Oxidation of octamethyl pentathiadispiro[3.3.3.2]tridecane‐2,9‐dione ( 5 ) with m‐chloroperbenzoic acid at 0 °C gave the 12‐oxide 6 . Treatment of 2 with two equivalents of (Ph₃P)₂Pt(η²‐C₂H₄) ( 7 ) afforded a mixture (1 : 1) of the complexes (Ph₃P)₂PtSCPh₂S ( 8 ) and (Ph₃P)₂Pt(η²‐Ph₂C=S=O) ( 9 ), respectively.

Oxalato‐ and Squarato‐Bridged Threedimensional Networks: The Crystal Structures of La₂(C₂O₄)(C₄O₄)₂(H₂O)₈ · 2.5 H₂O and K[Bi(C₂O₄)₂] · 5 H₂O The title compounds have been formed by hydrolysis of amino‐ and thioderivatives of squaric acid in the presence of La^III and Bi^III ions. Both compounds are threedimensional coordination polymers in the solid state, as shown by single crystal X‐ray crystallography. In La₂(C₂O₄)(C₄O₄)₂(H₂O)₈ · 2.5 H₂O oxalato‐bridged pairs of LaO₉ polyhedra are connected with identical neighbouring polyhedra by squarate ions. In K[Bi(C₂O₄)₂] · 5 H₂O each Bi atom is fourfold linked to other Bi atoms by the oxalate ions. The resulting 3D network shows a diamond‐like topology with square‐shaped channels. In both structures the channels are partially filled by water molecules.     

Octafluor‐1, 2‐dimethylencyclobutan,ein perfluorierter Dien‐Komplexligand — Carbonyl(η5‐cyclopentadienyl)(η4‐octafluor‐1, 2‐dimethylencyclobutan)mangan

Octafluoro‐1, 2‐dimethylenecyclobutane, a Perfluorinated Diene Ligand — Carbonyl(η⁵‐cyclopentadienyl)(η⁴‐octafluoro‐1, 2‐dimethylenecyclobutane)manganese The [2+2]‐cycloaddition product of tetrafluoroallene ( 1 ), octafluoro‐1, 2‐dimethylenecyclobutane ( 2 ) reacts with tricarbonyl(η⁵‐cyclopentadienyl)manganese ( 4 ) replacing two carbonyl ligands to give carbonyl(η⁵‐cyclopentadienyl)(η⁴‐octafluoro‐1, 2‐dimethylenecyclobutane)manganese ( 5 ). According to the IR spectrum of 5 , the ligand 2 is a strong π acceptor. Among the less volatile by‐products of the dimerizationof 1 , the hydrolysis product of its trimer could be structurally characterized by X‐ray diffraction as the spirocyclic compound decafluoro‐5‐methylene‐spiro[3.3]heptane‐2‐carboxylic acid ( 3 ). The structure of 5 was also determined by an X‐ray crystal structure determination.
