Synthesis of ylideplatinum(II) complexes via α-functionalised alkylplatinum(II) intermediates and some comparative data on palladium(II) complexes; X-ray structure of trans-[Pt(CH2PEt3)I(PEt3)2]I

The reaction of [Pt(PEt₃)₃] with CH₂I₂ affords trans-[Pt(CH₂PEt₃)I(PEt₃)₂]I and is believed to proceed via the α-functionalised alkyl cis-[Pt(CH₂I)I(PEt₃)₂], because similar ylides are obtained from cis- or trans-[PT(CH₂X)(PPh₃)₂X] (XCl, Br, or I) with PR₃ (PEt₃, PBu₃ⁿ, PMePh₂, PEtPh₂, or PPh₃); cis-[Pd(CH₂I)-I(PPh₃)₂] does not react with excess PPh₃, but with PEt₃ yields trans-[Pd(CH₂PEt₃)I(PPh₃)₂]I; the X-ray structure of trans-[Pt(CH₂PEt₃)I(PEt₃)₂]I (current R = 0.045) shows PtP(1) 2.332(7), PtP(2) 2.341(8), PtC 2.08(2), and PtI 2.666(2) Å, and angles (a) C(1)PtI, P(1), P(2): 176.9(8), 91.6(6), 93.4(6), (b) IPtP(1), P(2): 87.1(2), 88.5(2), and (c) P(1)P(2), 166.8(3), and (d) PtC(1)P(3), 118(1)°.     

Metallorganische diazoalkane : XIII. Reaktionen metallorganischer diazoalkane mit P(NMe2)3 zu metallorganischen phosphazinen LnM(R)CNNP(NMe2)3

Staudinger reactions of 20 organometallic diazoalkanes and of their parent compounds CH₂N₂, HC(N₂)CO₂Et, HC(N₂)C(O)Me and HC(N₂)C(O)Ph with a strong basic phosphine P(NMe₂)₃ are described and were classified into five groups 1–5 of different reactivity.Mono-diazomethanes L_nMCHN₂ (for L_nM = Me₃Si, Me₂As) react to give (cis, trans) isomers of the corresponding phosphazines L_nMC(H)NNP(NMe₂)₃; a stepwise reaction of functional diazogroups in organometallic bis-diazoalkanes, e.g. Hg[C(N₂)CO₂Et]₂, has been observed.Different reactivity of organometallic diazoalkanes cannot be rationalized by known spectroscopic data but can be interpreted by steric effects. In analogy to reactions of isoelectronic azides a transition state of the Staudinger reaction is suggested with an attack of the basic phosphine at the electrophilic α-nitrogen atom and following rearrangement into the N_β-Staudinger adduct.Trimethylgermaniumdiazomethane, Me₃GeCHN₂, was obtained as a novel monosubstituted organometallic diazoalkane and is fully characterized.     

Studies on novel unsymmetrical azomethines—III : Copper(II) complexes of unsymmetrical tetradentate azomethines

These complexes have been characterized by elemental analyses, TLC, conductance, magnetic measurements, IR and electronic spectra.     

Substituent effects and stereochemical mechanisms for substitution reactions of 18F for halogen atoms in CF3X, (CH3)3−n CHnX,and CH3X

No thermal substitutions of ¹⁸F for X (X  halogen atom) are observed with CF₃X and (CH₃)_3?nCH_nX substrates in excess SF₆. The absence of thermal yield increasing with weaker CX bond energies, as found with CH₃X substrates, is attributed to the much larger mass versus H of F and CH₃ substituents. The thermal substitution of ¹⁸F/X in CH₃X molecules probably occurs by an inversion mechanism.     

Molecular structures of (SiCl3)2CH2 and (SiCl3)2CCl2 as studied by electron diffraction

An electron diffraction analysis of the molecular structures of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexachloro-1,3-disilapropane and octachloro-1,3-disilapropane has been carried out. Deviations from the staggered conformation are indicated. The data may be approximated by models with C₂ symmetry and a small tilt of the SiCl₃ groups. The main bond lengths (r_g) and bond angles obtained for (SiCl₃)₂ CH₂ are: SiCl, 202.7(4); SiC, 186.6(6); CH, 109.8(24) pm, ClSiCl, 107.9(1); SiCSi, 118.3(7)°; and for (SiCl₃)₂CCl₂: SiCl, 202.0(4); SiC, 190.2(9); CCl, 179.6(9) pm; ClSiCl, 109.5(1); SiCSi, 120.6(9); ClCCl, 110.9(16); SiCCl, 106.3(3)°.     

Infrared Spectroscopic and dielectrometric investigation of the molecular geometry of isocyanato- and isothiocyanato-silane derivatives

The molecular geometry of compounds of the series (CH₃)_nSi(NCX)_4-n, (where n  0, 1, 2, 3 X  S, O) were investigated with the objective of determining the magnitudes of the SiNC angles. Measurement of the infrared spectra and dipole moments were carried out. The infrared spectra unambiguously suggest linearity, and this is supported by dipole moment calculations. The deviation from linearity observed by electron diffraction is a consequence of shrinkage effects δ(SiNCX) resulting from low frequency, large amplitude vibrations. From the dipole moment values it is concluded that the N—Si—N angle in the di- and trifunctional isothiocyanates is larger than the tetrahedral angle. The structural differences between the silicon and carbon compounds can be attributed to (dp)π bonding in the former.     

Structural chemistry of bimetallic hydride complexes of titanium and aluminium: I. Crystal and molecular structure of [(η5-C5H5)2,Ti(μ-H)2AlH2]2(CH3)2NCH2CH2N(CH3)2C6H6

The structure of a titanium aluminium hydride complex of composition [(C₅H₅)₂TiAlH₄]₂(CH₃)₂NC₂H₄N(CH₃)₂C₆H₆ has been determined by X-ray diffraction. The complex forms triclinic crystals with unit cell dimensions a = 8.406(2), b = 10.117(2), c = 11.269(3) Å; α = 112.01(2)°, β = 109.25(2)°, γ = 87.04(2)°, space group P$\text{1}$, Z = 2 and density d = 1.21 g/cm³. The structure was refined to give a discrepancy index R = 0.056. The crystals are composed of centrosymmetric molecules of (Cp₂TiAlH₄)₂TMEDA (Cp = η⁵-cyclopentadienyl) and molecules of crystal benzene. Two moieties of Cp₂TiH₂AlH₂ are linked by a tetramethylethylenediamine molecule (r_AlN 2.11 Å). The aluminium atom is bonded to a titanium atom by a double hydride bridge (r_AlH b = 1.8, 1.6 Å, r_TiH b = 1.6 Å), and has trigonal bipyramidal stereochemistry, [H₄N] (r_AlH t = 1.6 Å).

Protolyses of (CH3)3SnM(CH3)3 (M = Sn,Ge, Si,C)

Product and kinetic studies on the reactions of hydrogen chloride in methanol solution with the substrates (CH₃)₃SnM(CH₃)₃ (M = Sn; Ge and Si) show that both SnM and SnCH₃ cleavage reactions occur, at similar rates, and are followed by other reactions giving complex but explicable mixtures of products. Similar behaviour is observed for trifluoroacetolysis in carbon tetrachloride solution, and some intermediates are observable. Trifluoroacetolysis of (CH₃)₃SnC(CH₃)₃ results in exclusive SnCH₃ cleavage. The very slow apparent solvolysis in acetic acid solution is thought to involve reaction with dissolved oxygen.
