The formation of 1 in air involves a ligand exchange, and the coordination of a water molecule in trans position to the Os‐N triple bond. The resulting complex fragments [(H₂O)Cl₄Os≡N] and [IrCl(C₅Me₅)(AsPh₃)] are connected by an asymmetric nitrido bridge Os≡N‐Ir. The nitrido bridge is characterised by an Os‐N‐Ir bond angle of 173.7(7)°, and distances Os‐N = 168(1) pm and Ir‐N = 191(1) pm. 2 crystallizes in clumped together brown platelets with the space group and a = 1023.3(3), b = 1476.2(3), c = 1872.5(6) pm, α = 74.60(2), β = 73.84(2), γ = 76.19(2)°, Z = 2. In 2 the asymmetric nitrido bridge Os≡N‐Ir joins the two complex fragments [(Ph₃Sb)Cl₄Os≡N] and [IrCl(C₅Me₅)(SbPh₃)], which are formed by a ligand exchange reaction. 3 forms dark green crystals with the triclinic space group and a = 1079.4(1), b = 1172.3(1), c = 1696.7(2) pm, α = 101.192(9),β = 92.70(1), γ = 92.61(1)°, Z = 2. The distances in the almost linear nitrido bridge (Os≡N‐Ir = 175.3(7)°) are Os‐N = 171(1) pm and Ir‐N = 183(1) pm. The reaction of [ReNCl₂(PMe₂Ph)₃] with [Mo(CO)₃(NCMe)₃] unexpectedly affords the trinuclear complex [{(Me₂PhP)₂(OC)Cl₂Re≡N}₂ReNCl₂(PMe₂Ph)] ( 4 ) as the main product. It forms triclinic brown crystals with the composition 4 ·2THF and the space group (a = 1382.70(7), b = 1498.58(7), c = 1760.4(1) pm, α = 99.780(7), β = 99.920(7), γ = 114.064(6)°, Z = 2). In the trinuclear complex, the central fragment, [ReNCl₂(PMe₂Ph)] is joined in trans position to two nitrido complexes [(Me₂PhP)₂(CO)Cl₂Re≡N], giving an almost linear Re≡N‐Re‐N≡Re arrangement. The bond angles and distances in the nitrido bridges are Re‐N‐Re = 167.8(3)°, Re‐N = 171.1(8) pm and 204.2(8) pm; and Re‐N‐Re = 168.1(4)°, Re‐N = 170.9(9) and 203.5(9) pm respectively. As expected, the Re‐N bond length to the terminal nitrido ligand on the central Re atom is much shorter at 161.2(9) pm than the triple bonds of the asymmetric bridges.

Zur Insertion in die Lanthanoid–Kohlenstoffbindung Synthese und Struktur von [CpSm(C6H5CH2NNO)]2 und [K(18-Krone-6)CpYb(NCS)2]∞

On the Insertion into the Lanthanide–Carbon Bond. Synthesis and Structure of [Cp Sm(C₆H₅CH₂NNO)]₂ and [K(18-crown-6)Cp Yb(NCS)₂]_∞ The compound [CpSm(CH₂C₆H₅)(thf)] was investigated, regarding its reactions with small molecules. The main subject was to detect an insertion into the Ln–C bond. With N₂O an insertion reaction is observed, yielding the dimer [CpSm(C₆H₅CH₂NNO)]₂ ( 1 ). The structural data of 1 was collected by a single crystal X-Ray diffraction analysis. (Space group P 1, Z = 1, a = 982.8(2) pm, b = 1052.2(2) pm, c = 1383.8(3) pm, α = 89.29(3)°, β = 73.64(3)°, γ = 66.41(3)°). In the dimer, the two Samarium ions are linked via an (η¹ : η²) bridge by two benzyl diazotato ligands. A nearly planar six-membered central Sm₂N₂O₂-ring is formend. Two pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligands complete the coordination sphere of each Samarium ion, which are thus surrounded by four ligands each and have a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry. An insertion of a SCN^– fragment in the Ln–C bond could not be observed. The substitution of the benzyl ligand leads to a polymeric chain structure. The new compound [K(18-crown-6)CpYb(NCS)₂]_∞ 2 contains a tetrahedrally coordinated Yb(III)-ion.
