Probing the aromaticity of the [(H(t)Ac)3(μ2-H)6], [(H(t)Th)3(μ2-H)6],(+), and [(H(t)Pa)3(μ2-H)6] clusters

In this study we report about the aromaticity of the prototypical [(H(t)Ac)(3)(μ(2)-H)(6)], [(H(t)Th)(3)(μ(2)-H)(6)](+), and [(H(t)Pa)(3)(μ(2)-H)(6)] clusters via two magnetic criteria: nucleus-independent chemical shifts (NICS) and the magnetically induced current density. All-electron density functional theory calculations were carried out using the two-component zeroth-order regular approach and the four-component Dirac-Coulomb Hamiltonian, including scalar and spin-orbit relativistic effects. Four-component current density maps and the integration of induced ring-current susceptibilities clearly show that the clusters [(H(t)Ac)(3)(μ(2)-H)(6)] and [(H(t)Th)(3)(μ(2)-H)(6)](+) are non-aromatic whereas [(H(t)Pa)(3)(μ(2)-H)(6)] is anti-aromatic. However, for the thorium cluster we find a discrepancy between the current density plots and the classification through the NICS index. Our results also demonstrate the increasing influence of f orbitals, on bonding and magnetic properties, with increasing atomic number in these clusters. We think that the enhanced electron mobility in [(H(t)Pa)(3)(μ(2)-H)(6)] is due the significant 5f character of its valence shell. Also the participation of f orbitals in bonding is the reason why the protactinium cluster has the shortest bond lengths of the three clusters. This study provides another example showing that the magnetically induced current density approach can give more reliable results than the NICS index.     

Synthesis and structures of complexes Os3(μ-H)2(CO)7(μ-RC5H3N){μ3-Ph2PCH2P(C6H4)Ph} (R = H, Me) with ortho-metalated pyridine ligands. The revised structure of the triosmium cluster ”Os3(μ-H)2(CO)7(μ-C6H4){μ3-Ph2PCH2P(C6H4)Ph}”

The structure of the previously synthesized triosmium cluster was revised. The structure Os₃(μ-H)₂(CO)₇(μ-C₆H₄){μ₃-Ph₂PCH₂P(C₆H₄)Ph} suggested earlier was not confirmed. The cluster has the composition Os₃(μ-H)₂(CO)₇(μ-C₅H₄N){μ₃-Ph₂PCH₂P(C₆H₄)Ph} and contains the ortho-metalated pyridine ligand. The X-ray diffraction study of the complex Os₃(μ-H)₂(CO)₇(μ-MeC₅H₃N){μ₃-Ph₂PCH₂P(C₆H₄)Ph} containing the ortho-metalated 4-methylpyridine ligand made it possible to distinguish between the C and N atoms of the pyridine ligands in the resulting triosmium clusters.     

Syntheses and characterization of the vanadium trimer (V3(μ3-O)O2)(μ2-O2P(CH2C6H5)2)6(4,4′-bipyridine) and the vanadium hexamer [(V3(μ3-O)O2)(μ2-O2P(CH2C6H5)2)6]2(μ2-N1,N2-di(pyridin-4-yl)oxalamide)

Reacting VO(acac)₂ with six equivalents of dibenzylphosphinic acid in the presence of 4,4′-bipyridine or μ₂-N¹,N²-di(pyridin-4-yl)oxalamide leads to trimeric (V₃(μ₃-O)O₂)(μ₂-O₂P(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₆(4,4′-bipyridine) or the hexamer [(V₃(μ₃-O)O₂)(μ₂-O₂P(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₆]₂(μ₂-N¹,N²-di(pyridin-4-yl)oxalamide). The complexes were characterized by spectroscopic (FTIR and ¹H NMR spectroscopies), TGA, and by single crystal X-ray diffraction measurements. The structures consist of a planar central core where three vanadium ions are arranged in the form of a quasi-isosceles triangle and contain an interstitial O which is multiply bonded to one V and weakly interacting at different bond distances to the remaining two V ions.     

Synthesis and structure of the organoantimony peroxide solvates [Sb4(μ2-O)4(O2)2(C6H3MeO-2,Br-5)8]·1.5C4H8O2 and [Sb4(μ2-O)4(O2)2(C6H3MeO-2,Br-5)8]·6C4H8O2

The organoantimony peroxide (Ar₂SbO)₄(O₂)₂ (Ar = C₆H₃OMe-2, Br-5) was synthesized by the oxidation of Ar3Sb with hydrogen peroxide in the presence or acetoxime or acetophenone oxime in dioxane. The product crystallizes with various content of the solvent molecules in the crystal unit cell [1.5 (I) and 6 (II), respectively]. An X-ray diffraction analysis of the solvates was performed. Four antimony atoms in the peroxide are in the octahedral coordination, and are linked through bridging oxygen atoms and two peroxide groups. The distances Sb-C, Sb-O_bridge, Sb-O_peroxide, O-O and Sb...Sb are 2.117–2.122, 1.960–1.972, 2.193–2.235, 1.461, 1.465 and 3.223–3.237 Å in I, and 2.112, 2.119, 1.957, 1,966, 2.204, 2,246, 1,467, and 3.2439 Å in II.     

STRUCTURAL STUDIES OF THE COPPER(II) ACETATE COMPLEXES Cu(o2CCH3)2(pyridine)3 AND Cu6(μ-O2CCH3)4(μ4-O2CCH3)2(μ-OCMe3)6

Abstract

Preparation of organozirconium aromatic compounds in mixed aqueous-organic solvents: X-ray structures of [Cp2ZrCl(μ2-O′,O′′C-C6H5)], [(CpZr)3(μ2-O′,O′′C-C6H3Cl2)3(μ3-OH)(μ2-OH)3](Cl2C6H3COO)2, and [(CpZr)3(μ2-O′,O′′C-C6H4Cl)3(μ3-OH)(μ2-OH)3]Cl2·CH2Cl2

A new and facile method is presented for the synthesis of zirconocene carboxylate compounds, in which zirconocene dichloride (Cp₂ZrCl₂) is dissolved in 1 M aqueous HCl solution and the requisite ligand is dissolved in an organic solvent. Five such compounds [Cp₂ZrCl(μ₂-O′,O′′C-C₆H₅)] (1), [Cp₂ZrCl(μ₂-O′,O′′C-C₆H₃Cl₂)] (2), [Cp₂Zr(μ₂-O′,O′′C-C₆H₃(OH)Cl)₂] (3), [Cp₂Zr(μ₂-O′,O′′C-C₆H₃(OH)(NO₂))₂] (4), and [Cp₂Zr(μ₂-O′,O′′C-C₆H(OH)Cl₃)₂] (5) have been obtained by this method. The effect of pH on the stability of Cp₂ZrCl₂ in 1 M HCl solution has been investigated by UV/vis spectrophotometry and ¹H NMR spectrometry. The results showed that the aqueous Cp₂ZrCl₂ solutions became less stable with increasing pH, liberating cyclopentadiene. Accordingly, at higher pH (～7), two trinuclear zirconium monocyclopentadienyl compounds, [(CpZr)₃(μ₂-O′,O′′C-C₆H₃Cl₂)₃(μ₃-OH)(μ₂-OH)₃](Cl₂C₆H₃COO)₂ (6) and [(CpZr)₃(μ₂-O′,O′′C-C₆H₄Cl)₃(μ₃-OH)(μ₂-OH)₃]Cl₂·CH₂Cl₂ (7), were obtained. All compounds 1–7 have been characterized by FT-IR, ¹H NMR spectra and elemental analysis. In all of the compounds, the aromatic acid acts as a bidentate ligand in coordinating to the zirconium; both chelating and bridging modes are observed. X-ray crystallographic studies on 1, 6, and 7 have revealed that the geometries at zirconium are distorted octahedral in 6 and 7, and distorted trigonal-bipyramidal in 1.     

Solid–Gas Hydrogenation of Hex-3-yne and 1,4-Cyclohexadiene in the Presence of Ru3(CO)9(μ-H)(μ-PPh2), Ru3(CO)10(μ-H)(μ-PPh2), Ru3(CO)7(μ-PPh2)2(C6H4), and Ru4(CO)11(μ4-PPh)(C6H4) Deposited on Pyrex Glass, Silica, and Alumina

The title complexes were tested in the hydrogenation of hex-3-yne and of 1,3- and 1,4-cyclohexadiene (CHD) under solid–gas conditions. The clusters were deposited on three “standard” supports, that is, pyrex glass, alumina, and silica. All the clusters, particularly (μ-H)Ru₃(CO)₁₀(PPh₂), show hydrogenation activity. However, they are not particularly selective toward the formation of monoenes; “disproportionation” of 1,3- and 1,4-CHD to hydrogenated products and benzene also occurs. The hydrogenation activity of the clusters is dependent on their nature, the type of substrate, and the characteristics of the supporting material; silica and pyrex glass are usually more active than alumina. Attempts at detecting the formation of organometallic intermediates or by-products (through IR spectroscopy) were made. HRTEM was used to check for eventual decomposition on some supports.     

Protonation and acylation of the heterometallic complexes (μ-H)Os3(μ-O2CC5H4FeCp)(CO)10 and Fe{(μ-O2CC5H4)(μ-H)Os3(CO)10}2

The reactions of the heterometallic complexes (-H)Os₃(-O₂CC₅H₄FeCp)(CO)₁₀ (1) and Fe{(-O₂CC₅H₄)(-H)Os₃(CO)₁₀}₂ (2) with CF₃COOH, CF₃SO₃H, and AcCl were studied. The reaction of 1 with CF₃COOH involves interaction with the Cp ligands, protonation of the O atom of the bridging carboxylate group, and oxidative degradation of the complex. At low concentrations, CF₃SO₃H protonates the O atom of the bridging carboxylate group, while at high concentrations, degradation of the complex takes place. The reaction of complex 2with either CF₃COOH or low concentrations of CF₃SO₃H results in successive elimination of two [(-H)Os₃(CO)₁₀] cluster fragments due to protonation of the O atoms of the carboxylate groups. In the case of high CF₃SO₃H concentrations, the Os—Os bonds of both cluster fragments of 2 are also protonated to give the [Fe{(-O₂CC₅H₄)(-H)₂Os₃(CO)₁₀}₂]²⁺ dication. The Friedel—Crafts acylation of 1 takes place only when a large excess of AcCl and AlCl₃ is used to give two new complexes, (-H)Os₃(-O₂CC₅H₄FeC₅H₄C(O)CH₃)(CO)₁₀ and (-H)Os₃(-O₂CC₅H₃C(O)CH₃FeCp)(CO)₁₀ in a 2 : 1 ratio.     

Syntheses, X-ray structural characterizations, and thermal stabilities of two nonclassical trinuclear vanadium(IV) complexes, (V3(μ3-O)O2)(μ2-O2P(CH2C6H5)2)6(H2O) and (V3(μ3-O)O2)(μ2-O2P(CH2C6H5)2)6(py), and polymeric complexes of stoichiometry (VO(O2PR2)2)∞, R2 = Ph2 and o-(CH2)2(C6H4)

The preparation and structural characterization of two trinuclear vanadium complexes, (V(3)(μ(3)-O)O(2))(μ(2)-O(2)P(CH(2)C(6)H(5))(2))(6)(H(2)O), 1, and (V(3)(μ(3)-O)O(2))(μ(2)-O(2)P(CH(2)C(6)H(5))(2))(6)(py), 2, are reported. In these nonclassical structures, the planar central core consists of the three vanadium atoms arranged in the form of an acute quasi-isosceles triangle with the central oxygen atom multiply bonded to the vanadium atom at the center of the vertex angle and weakly interacting with the two other vanadium atoms on the base sites, each of which contain one external multiply bonded oxygen atom. Reacting VO(acac)(2)in the presence of diphenylphosphinic acid affords (VO(O(2)PPh(2))(2))(∞), 3, while 2-hydroxyisophosphindoline-2-oxide at room temperature in CH(2)Cl(2) affords ((H(2)O)VO(O(2)Po-(CH(2))(2)C(6)H(4))(2))(∞), 4, and at 120 °C in EtOH yields (VO(O(2)P(o-(CH(2))(2)(C(6)H(4)))(∞), 5 on the basis of elemental analyses. The thermal and chemical stability of the complexes were assessed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements. The bond strengths of the vanadium atoms to the OH(2) ligand in 1 and to the NC(5)H(5) ligand in 2 were assessed at 10.7 and 42.0 kJ/mol respectively. Room temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements reveal magnetic moments for trinuclear 1 and 2 at 3.02(1) and 3.05(1) μ(B/mol), and also close to spin only values (1.73 μ(B)) values for 3, 4, and 5 at 1.77(2), 1.758(7), and 1.77(3) μ(B), respectively. Variable-temperature, solid-state magnetic susceptibility measurements were conducted on complex 2 in the temperature range of 2.0-298 K and at an applied field of 0.5 T. Magnetization measurements at 2 and 4 K confirmed a very weak magnetic interaction between the vanadyl centers.

In both compounds, ionic pairs {[Mo₃Te₇(CN)₆]I}^3– with Te_ax...I^– distances of 3.358-3.676 are formed. In the potassium salt, the {[Mo₃Te₇(CN)₆]I}^3– anion pairs are linked by the additional Te_eqI^– short contacts of 3.460 into two-dimensional corrugated layers perpendicular to the c axis of the unit cell. The structure of the cesium salt is ionic with interstitial H₂O molecules and double-layer closest packing of anions.

CO Substitution in HOs3(CO)10(μ-SC6H4Me-4) by the Diphosphine 4,5-Bis(diphenylphosphino)-4-cyclopentadiene-1,3-dione (bpcd): Structural and DFT Evaluation of the Isomeric Clusters HOs3(CO)8(bpcd)(μ-SC6H4Me-4)

The reaction of the cluster HOs₃(CO)₁₀(??-SC₆H₄Me-4) (1) with the diphosphine 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-4-cyclopentadiene-1,3-dione (bpcd) has been investigated. 1 reacts with bpcd at room temperature in the presence of Me₃NO to give the isomeric clusters 1,2-HOs₃(CO)₈(bpcd)(??-SC₆H₄Me-4) (2a) and 1,1-HOs₃(CO)₈(bpcd)(??-SC₆H₄Me-4) (2b). Clusters 2a and 2b have been isolated, and the molecular structure of each compound has been established by X-ray crystallography. The X-ray structure of 2a confirms the coordination of one of the non-hydride-bridged Os?COs vectors by the bpcd ligand, while the structure of 2b exhibits a chelating bpcd ligand that is bound to one of the osmium centers ligated by the thiolate and hydrido ligands. 2a and 2b are stable in refluxing toluene and show no evidence for bridge-to-chelate isomerization of the ancillary bpcd ligand. DFT calculations on 2a and 2b indicate that the former cluster is the thermodynamically more stable isomer. Near-UV irradiation of 2b leads to CO loss and ortho metalation of the thiolate moiety, yielding the dihydride cluster H₂Os₃(CO)₇(bpcd)(??,??-SC₆H₃Me-4) (3). The conversion of 2b to 3 and free CO is computed to be endothermic by 14.1?kcal/mol and the reaction is driven by the entropic release of CO. The photochemically promoted ortho-metalation reaction is isomer dependent since cluster 2a is inert under identical conditions.
