用电子自旋共振、紫外漫反射谱、红外光谱和程序升温分解等法研究了Al_2O_3和TiO_2担载的Pt_3(CO)_3(PPh_3)_4络合物的表面结构和在真空及CO中的热分解。当络合物担载于Al_2O_3上时,其桥羰基和Pt—Pt骨架未发生明显变化,ESR谱表明络合物的一个PPh_3基被Al_2O_3表面的化学基团取代,形成了Pt_3(CO)_3(PPh_3)_3(B)(B=—O—Al或HO—Al)。在真空或CO中,表面络合物随温度升高而逐渐脱去羰基,分别出现相当于Pt(CO)_2(PPh_3)(B)和Pt(CO)(PPh_3)(B)_2的碳基吸收带。当络合物担载于TiO_2上时,在真空、CO或氦中升温时,结合物均发生分解而分别形成相当于Pt_3(CO)_3(PPh_3)_3(B),Pt(CO)(PPh_3)(B),Pt(CO)(PPh_3)(B)_2和Pt(PPh_3)(B)_2表面络合物。     

Synthesis, structure, and reactivity of ruthenium carboxylato and 2-oxocarboxylato complexes bearing the bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)acetato ligand

A series of ruthenium(II) acetonitrile, pyridine (py), carbonyl, SO2, and nitrosyl complexes [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CR)(L)(PPh3)] (L = NCMe, py, CO, SO2) and [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CR)(L)(PPh3)]BF4 (L = NO) containing the bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)acetato (bdmpza) ligand, a N,N,O heteroscorpionate ligand, have been prepared. Starting from ruthenium chlorido, carboxylato, or 2-oxocarboxylato complexes, a variety of acetonitrile complexes [Ru(bdmpza)Cl(NCMe)(PPh3)] (4) and [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CR)(NCMe)(PPh3)] (R = Me (5a), R = Ph (5b)), as well as the pyridine complexes [Ru(bdmpza)Cl(PPh3)(py)] (6) and [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CR)(PPh3)(py)] (R = Me (7a), R = Ph (7b), R = (CO)Me (8a), R = (CO)Et (8b), R = (CO)Ph) (8c)), have been synthesized. Treatment of various carboxylato complexes [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CR)(PPh3)2] (R = Me (2a), Ph (2b)) with CO afforded carbonyl complexes [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CR)(CO)(PPh3)] (9a, 9b). In the same way, the corresponding sulfur dioxide complexes [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CMe)(PPh3)(SO2)] (10a) and [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CPh)(PPh3)(SO2)] (10b) were formed in a reaction of the carboxylato complexes with gaseous SO2. None of the 2-oxocarboxylato complexes [Ru(bdmpza)(O2C(CO)R)(PPh3)2] (R = Me (3a), Et (3b), Ph (3c)) showed any reactivity toward CO or SO2, whereas the nitrosyl complex cations [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CMe)(NO)(PPh3)](+) (11) and [Ru(bdmpza)(O2C(CO)Ph)(NO)(PPh3)](+) (12) were formed in a reaction of the acetato 2a or the benzoylformato complex 3c with an excess of nitric oxide. Similar cationic carboxylato nitrosyl complexes [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CR)(NO)(PPh3)]BF4 (R = Me (13a), R = Ph (13b)) and 2-oxocarboxylato nitrosyl complexes [Ru(bdmpza)(O2C(CO)R)(NO)(PPh3)]BF4 (R = Me (14a), R = Et (14b), R = Ph (14c)) are also accessible via a reaction with NO[BF4]. X-ray crystal structures of the chlorido acetonitrile complex [Ru(bdmpza)Cl(NCMe)(PPh3)] (4), the pyridine complexes [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CMe)(PPh3)(py)] (7a) and [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CC(O)Et)(PPh3)(py)] (8b), the carbonyl complex [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CPh)(CO)(PPh3)] (9b), the sulfur dioxide complex [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CPh)(PPh3)(SO2)] (10b), as well as the nitrosyl complex [Ru(bdmpza)(O2C(CO)Me)(NO)(PPh3)]BF4 (14a), are reported. The molecular structure of the sulfur dioxide complex [Ru(bdmpza)(O2CPh)(PPh3)(SO2)] (10b) revealed a rather unusual intramolecular SO2-O2CPh Lewis acid-base adduct.     

Linkage and redox isomerism in ruthenium complexes of catecholate, semiquinone, and o-acylphenolate ligands derived from 1,2-dihydroxy-9,10-anthracenedione (alizarin) and related species: syntheses, characterizations, and photophysics

The complexes Ru(CO)2L2(AL-2H) (AL = alizarin; L = PPh3, PCyc3, PBu3, P(m-NaSO3C6H4)3), Ru(CO)(dppe)(PBu3)(AL-2H), and RuH(CO)L2(AL-H) (L = PPh3, PCyc3), and Ru(CO)2L2(AR-2H) (AR = anthrarobin; L = PBu3) were prepared by reactions of Ru3(CO)12, L, and AL, and the complexes RuH(CO)(PPh3)2(AL-H), RuH(CO)(PPh3)2(QN-H) (QN = quinizarin), and RuH(CO)(PPh3)2(LQN-H) (LQN = leucoquinizarin) are prepared by reactions of RuH2(CO)(PPh3)3 with AL or QN. The AL-2H and AR-2H ligands act as 1,2-catecholates, whereas the AL-H, QN-H, LQN-H ligands are 1,9-o-acylphenolate ligands. RuH(CO)(PPh3)2(AL-H) is characterized by X-ray crystallography. The electrochemistry of these complexes is examined, and the semiquinone complexes [Ru(CO)2L2(AL-2H)]+ (L = PPh3, PCyc3, PBu3) and [Ru(CO)(dppe)(PBu3)(AL-2H)]+ are generated by chemical oxidation and were characterized by EPR and IR spectroscopy. The photophysical properties are also reported.     

Linkage and redox isomerism in ruthenium complexes of catecholate, semi-quinone, and o-acylphenolate ligands derived from tri- and tetrahydroxy-9,10-anthracenediones

The complexes Ru(CO)(2)L(2)(PHAQ-2H) (PHAQ = 1,2,4-trihydroxy-9,10-anthracenedione (PUR), 1,2,3- trihydroxy-9,10-anthracenedione (AG), and 1,2,5,8-tetrahydroxy-9,10-anthracenedione (QAL); L = PPh(3), PCy(3), PBu(3)), and Ru(CO)(dppe)(PBu(3))(PHAQ-2H), containing catecholate-type ligands were prepared. The complex Ru(CO)(2)(PBu(3))(2)(AG-2H) crystallizes in the space group P2(1)/n (No. 14 var) with a = 13.317(2), b = 15.628(2), c = 21.076(3) A, beta = 101.660(10) degrees, Z = 4; the crystal structure shows it to contain a 2,3-catecholate ligand. The electrochemistry of these complexes was examined, and the semi-quinone complexes [Ru(CO)(2)L(2)(PHAQ-2H)](1+) and [Ru(CO)(dppe)(PBu(3))(PHAQ-2H)](1+) were generated by chemical oxidation. One example of an o-acylphenolate complex, HRu(CO)(PCy(3))(2)(PUR-H), is also reported.     

Cyanide-bridged linkage isomers with catecholateruthenium(II) centres bound to Mn(I) or M(alkyne) units

Two series of stable cyanide-bridged linkage isomers, namely [(o-O2C6Cl4)(Ph3P)(OC)2Ru(mu-XY)MnL(NO)(eta-C5Me5)] (XY = CN or NC, L = CNBu(t) or CNXyl) and [(o-O2C6Cl4)L(OC)2Ru(mu-XY)M(CO)(PhC-CPh)Tp'] {M = Mo or W, L = PPh3 or P(OPh)3, Tp' = hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate} have been synthesised; pairs of isomers are distinguishable by IR spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The molecular structure of [(o-O2C6Cl4)(Ph3P)(OC)2Ru(mu-NC)Mo(CO)(PhC-CPh)Tp'] has the catecholate-bound ruthenium atom cyanide-bridged to a Mo(CO)(PhC[triple band]CPh)Tp' unit in which the alkyne acts as a four-electron donor; the alignment of the alkyne relative to the Mo-CO vector suggests the fragment (CN)Ru(CO)2(PPh3)(o-O2C6Cl4) acts as a pi-acceptor ligand. The complexes [(o-O2C6Cl4)(Ph3P)(OC)2Ru(mu-XY)Mn(NO)L(eta-C5Me5)] undergo three sequential one-electron oxidation processes with the first and third assigned to oxidation of the ruthenium-bound o-O2C6Cl4 ligand; the second corresponds to oxidation of Mn(I) to Mn(n). The complexes [(o-O2C6Cl4)L(OC)2Ru(mu-XY)M(CO)(PhC[triple band]CPh)Tp'] are also first oxidised at the catecholate ligand; the second oxidation, and one-electron reduction, are based on the M(CO)(PhC[triple band]CPh)Tp' fragment. Chemical oxidation of [(o-O,C6Cl4)(Ph3P)(OC)2Ru(mu-XY)MnL(NO)(eta-C5Me5)] with [Fe(eta-C5H4COMe)(eta-C5H5)][BF4], or of [(o-O2C6Cl4)L(OC)2Ru(mu-XY)M(CO)(PhC[triple band]CPh)Tp'] with AgBF4, gave the paramagnetic monocations [(o-O2C6Cl4)(Ph3P)(OC)2Ru(mu-XY)MnL(NO)(eta-C5Me5)]+ and [(o-O2C6Cl4)L(OC)2Ru(mu-XY)M(CO)(PhC[triple band]CPh)Tp']+, the ESR spectra of which are consistent with ruthenium-bound semiquinone ligands. Linkage isomers are distinguishable by the magnitude of the 31P hyperfine coupling constant; complexes with N-bound Ru(o-O2C6Cl4) units also show small hyperfine coupling to the nitrogen atom of the cyanide bridge.     

Olefin metatheses in metal coordination spheres: versatile new strategies for the construction of novel monohapto or polyhapto cyclic, macrocyclic, polymacrocyclic, and bridging ligands

The broad applicability of the title reaction is established through studies of neutral and charged, coordinatively saturated and unsaturated, octahedral and square planar rhenium, platinum, rhodium, and tungsten complexes with cyclopentadienyl, phosphine, and thioether ligands which contain terminal olefins. Grubbs' catalyst, [Ru(=CHPh)(PCy3)2(Cl)2], is used at 2-9 mol% levels (0.0095-0.00042 M, CH2-Cl2). Key data are as follows: [(eta5-C5H4(CH2)6CH=CH2)Re(NO)(PPh3)-(CH3)], intermolecular metathesis (95 %); [(eta5-C5H5)Re(NO)(PPh3)(E(CH2CH=CH2)2)]+ TfO (E=S, PMe, PPh), formation of five-membered heterocycles (96-64%; crystal structure E = PMe); [(eta5-C5Me5)Re(NO)(PPh((CH2)6CH=CH2)2)(L)]n+ nBF4-(L/n = CO/1, Cl/0), intramolecular macrocyclization (94-89%; crystal structure L= Cl); fac-[(CO)3Re(Br)(PPh2(CH2)6CH=CH2)2] and cis-[(Cl)2Pt(PPh2(CH2)6CH=CH2)2], intramolecular macrocyclizations (80-71%; crystal structures of each and a hydrogenation product); cis-[(Cl)2Pt(S(R)(CH2)6CH= CH2)2], intra-/intermolecular macrocyclization (R=Et, 55%/24%; tBu, 72%/ <4%); trans-[(Cl)(L)M(PPh2(CH2)6CH=CH2)2] (M/L = Rh/CO, Pt/C6F5) intramolecular macrocyclization (90-83%; crystal structure of hydrogenation product, M=Pt); fac-[W(CO)3(PPh((CH2)6CH=CH2)2)3], intramolecular trimacrocyclization (83 %) to a complex mixture of triphosphine, diphosphine/ monophosphine, and tris(monophosphine) complexes, from which two isomers of the first type are crystallized. The macrocycle conformations, and basis for the high yields, are analyzed.     

Low-temperature N-O bond cleavage of nitrogen monoxide in heterometallic carbonyl complexes. An experimental and theoretical study

The reaction of Na[RuCp(CO) 2] with [MnCp'(CO) 2(NO)]BF 4 gives the corresponding heterometallic derivative [MnRuCpCp'(mu-CO) 2(CO)(NO)] (Cp = eta (5)-C 5H 5; Cp' = eta (5)-C 5H 4Me). In contrast, the group 6 metal carbonyl anions [MCp(CO) 2L] (-) (M = Mo, W; L = CO, P(OMe) 3, PPh 3) react with the Mn and Re complexes [M'Cp'(CO) 2(NO)]BF 4 to give the heterometallic derivatives [MM'CpCp'(mu-N)(CO) 3L] having a nitride ligand linearly bridging the metal centers (W-N = 1.81(3) A, N-Re = 1.97(3) A, W-N-Re = 179(1) (o), in [WReCpCp'(mu-N)(CO) 3{P(OMe) 3}]). Density-functional theory calculations on the reactions of [WCp(CO) 3] (-) and [RuCp(CO) 2] (-) with [MnCp(CO) 2(NO)] (+) revealed a comparable qualitative behavior. Thus, two similar and thermodynamically allowed reaction pathways were found in each case, one implying the displacement of CO from the cation and formation of a metal-metal bond, the other implying the cleavage of the N-O bond of the nitrosyl ligand and release of a carbonyl from the anion as CO 2. The second pathway is more exoergonic and is initiated through an orbitally controlled attack of the anion on the N atom of the NO ligand in the cation. In contrast, the first pathway is initiated through a charge-controlled attack of the anion to the C atom of a CO ligand in the cation. The CO 2-elimination pathway requires at the intermediate stages a close approach of the NO and CO ligands, which is more difficult for the Ru compound because of its lower coordination number (compared to W). This effect, when combined with a stronger stabilization of the initial intermediate in the Ru reaction, makes the CO 2-elimination pathway slower in that case.     

Sigma-organyl complexes of ruthenium and osmium supported by a mixed-donor ligand

A series of vinyl, aryl, acetylide and silyl complexes [Ru(R)(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2] (R = CH=CH2, CH=CHPh, CH=CHC6H4CH3-4, CH=CH(t)Bu, CH=2OH, C(C triple bond CPh)=CHPh, C6H5, C triple bond CPh, SiMe2OEt; MI = 1-methylimidazole-2-thiolate) were prepared from either [Ru(R)Cl(CO)(PPh3)2] or [Ru(R)Cl(CO)(BTD)(PPh3)2](BTD = 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole) by reaction with the nitrogen-sulfur mixed-donor ligand, 1-methyl-2-mercaptoimidazole (HMI), in the presence of base. In the same manner, [Os(CH=CHPh)(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2] was prepared from [Os(CH=CHPh)(CO)Cl(BTD)(PPh3)2]. The in situ hydroruthenation of 1-ethynylcyclohexan-1-ol by [RuH(CO)Cl(BTD)(PPh3)2] and subsequent addition of the HMI ligand and excess sodium methoxide yielded the dehydrated 1,3-dienyl complex [Ru(CH=CHC6H9)(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2]. Dehydration of the complex [Ru(CH=CHCPh2OH)(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2] with HBF4 yielded the vinyl carbene [Ru(=CHCH=CPh2)(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2]BF4. The hydride complexes [MH(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2](M = Ru, Os) were obtained from the reaction of HMI and KOH with [RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3] and [OsHCl(CO)(BTD)(PPh3)2], respectively. Reaction of [Ru(CH=CHC6H4CH3-4)(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2] with excess HC triple bond CPh leads to isolation of the acetylide complex [Ru(C triple bond CPh)(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2], which is also accessible by direct reaction of [Ru(C triple bond CPh)Cl(CO)(BTD)(PPh3)2] with 1-methyl-2-mercaptoimidazole and NaOMe. The thiocarbonyl complex [Ru(CPh = CHPh)Cl(CS)(PPh3)2] reacted with HMI and NaOMe without migration to yield [Ru(CPh= CHPh)(kappa2-MI)(CS)(PPh3)2], while treatment of [Ru(CH=CHPh)Cl(CO)2(PPh3)2] with HMI yielded the monodentate acyl product [Ru{eta(1)-C(=O)CH=CHPh}(kappa2-MI)(CO)(PPh3)2]. The single-crystal X-ray structures of five complexes bearing vinyl, aryl, acetylide and dienyl functionality are reported.     

Cyanide (13)C NMR hyperfine shifts in paramagnetic cyanide-bridged mixed-valence complexes

Paramagnetic (hyperfine) NMR shifts in the (13)C cyanide bridge and (31)P resonances in a set of mixed valence complexes [(eta(5)-C(5)R(5))Ru(PPh(3))L((13)CN)Ru(NH(3))(5)](n+) (R = H; L = PPh(3), CO, NO(+); R = Me; L = PPh(3)) are sensitive to the extent of intermetallic charge-transfer, and are strongly solvent dependent.     

Platinum-osmium cluster complexes from the addition of Pt(PBut3) groups to Os3(CO)12

Three new compounds, PtOs(3)(CO)(12)(PBu(t)(3)) (10), Pt(2)Os(3)(CO)(12)(PBu(t)(3))(2) (11), and Pt(3)Os(3)(CO)(12)(PBu(t)(3))(3) (12), have been obtained from the reaction of Pt(PBu(t)(3))(2) with Os(3)(CO)(12) (9). The products were formed by the sequential addition of 1-3 Pt(PBu(t)(3)) groups to the three Os-Os bonds of the metal cluster of Os(3)(CO)(12). In solution, compounds 10-12 interconvert among themselves by intermolecular exchange of the Pt(PBu(t)(3)) groups. When 11 is treated with PPh(3), the mono- and bis(PPh(3)) derivatives of 9, Os(3)(CO)(11)(PPh(3)) and Os(3)(CO)(10)(PPh(3))(2), were obtained by elimination of the Pt(PBu(t)(3)) groups together with one and two CO ligands, respectively. When heated, compound 11 was transformed into the new compound Pt(2)Os(3)(CO)(10)(PBu(t)(3))(PBu(t)(2)CMe(2)CH(2))(mu-H) (13) by the loss of two CO ligands and a metalation of one of the methyl groups of one of the PBu(t)(3) ligands. Compounds 10-13 have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.
