Synthesis and characterization of Mo(6) chalcobromides and cyano-substituted compounds built from a novel [(Mo(6)Br(i)(6)Y(i)(2))L(a)(6)](n)()(-) discrete cluster unit (Y(i) = S or Se and L(a) = Br or CN)

The syntheses, crystal structures determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and characterizations of new Mo(6) cluster chalcobromides and cyano-substituted compounds with 24 valence electrons per Mo(6) cluster (VEC = 24), are presented in this work. The structures of Cs(4)Mo(6)Br(12)S(2) and Cs(4)Mo(6)Br(12)Se(2) prepared by solid state routes are based on the novel [(Mo(6)Br(i)(6)Y(i)(2))Br(a)(6)](4)(-) (Y = S, Se) discrete units in which two chalcogen and six bromine ligands randomly occupy the inner positions, while the six apical ones are fully occupied by bromine atoms. The interaction of these two compounds with aqueous KCN solution results in apical ligand exchange giving the two first Mo(6) cyano-chalcohalides: Cs(0.4)K(0.6)(Et(4)N)(11)[(Mo(6)Br(6)S(2))(CN)(6)](3).16H(2)O and Cs(0.4)K(0.6)(Et(4)N)(11)[(Mo(6)Br(6)Se(2))(CN)(6)](3).16H(2)O. Their crystal structures, built from the original [(Mo(6)Br(i)(6)Y(i)(2))(CN)(a)(6)](4)(-) discrete units, will be compared to those of the two solid state precursors and other previously reported Mo(6) cluster compounds. Their redox properties and (77)Se NMR characterizations will be presented. Crystal data: Cs(4)Mo(6)Br(12)S(2), orthorhombic, Pbca (No. 61), a = 11.511(5) A, b = 18.772(5) A, c = 28.381 A (5), Z = 8; Cs(4)Mo(6)Br(12)Se(2), Pbca (No. 61), a = 11.6237(1) A, b = 18.9447(1) A, c = 28.4874(1) A, Z = 8; Cs(0.4)K(0.6)(Et(4)N)(11)[(Mo(6)Br(6)S(2))(CN)(6)](3).16H(2)O, Pm-3m (No. 221), a = 17.1969(4) A, Z = 1; Cs(0.4)K(0.6)(Et(4)N)(11)[(Mo(6)Br(6)Se(2))(CN)(6)](3).16H(2)O, Pm-3m (No. 221), a = 17.235(5) A, Z = 1.     

Synthesis and characterization of rhenium-copper sulfide cluster complexes [(Ph3P)2N][Re3(CuX)(mu3-S)4Cl6(PMe2Ph)3] (X = Cl, Br, I)

The reaction of a trinuclear rhenium sulfide cluster compound Re3S7Cl7 with dimethylphenylphosphine and CuX2 (X = Cl or Br) or CuX (X = Cl, Br, or I) formed tetranuclear cluster complexes [(Ph3P)2N][Re3(CuX)(mu3-S)4Cl6(PMe2Ph)3] (X = Cl, Br, or I). Their solutions have the characteristic intense blue color with visible spectral bands near 600 nm. Single-crystal X-ray structures show that three mu-S atoms in the intermediate trinuclear rhenium complex coordinate to a copper atom, forming elongated tetrahedral structures in which Re-Cu bonding interaction is negligible (Re-Cu distances are 3.50 to approximately 3.54 A as compared with Re-Re distances ranging from 2.69 to 2.81 A).     

Di- and tetranuclear copper(I) complexes containing phenylaminobis(phosphonite), PhN{P(OC6H4OMe-o)2}2, and their reactivity toward bipyridyl ligands

The aminobis(phosphonite) PhN(P(OC6H4OMe-o)2)2 (PNP; 1) reacts with 2 equiv of CuI to give a binuclear complex, Cu2(mu2-I)2(NCCH3)2(mu-PNP) (2), whereas similar reactions with CuCl and CuBr furnish tetranuclear "ladder"-type complexes, Cu4(mu2-X)2(mu3-X)2(mu-PNP)2 (3, X = Cl; 4, X = Br), in excellent yield. The complex 2 when heated under vacuum turns into the tetranuclear complex 5 in a reversible fashion. Similarly, the complexes 3 and 4 on dissolution in CH3CN dissociate reversibly into the corresponding binuclear complexes from which the tetrameric complexes can be readily regenerated. Treatment of 2 with excess of pyridine produces the heterosubstituted derivative, Cu2(mu2-I)2(C5H5N)2(mu-PNP) (6). The interaction of 2 with 2,2'-bipyridine in 1:1 and 1:2 ratios produces the mono- and disubstituted derivatives, Cu2(mu2-I)I(C10H8N2)(mu-PNP) (7) and [Cu2(mu2-I)(C10H8N2)2(mu-PNP)]I (8), respectively. The chloro and bromo analogues of 7 are prepared by treating the tetranuclear derivatives 3 and 4 with 2,2'-bipyridine. Reaction of 2 with 4,4'-bipyridine in the presence of AgOTf gives the cationic complex [Cu4(NCCH3)4(C10H8N2)2(mu-PNP)2](OTf)4 (9), whereas the complex [Cu2(NCCH3)2(mu-PNP)2](OTf)2 (10) was obtained from the reaction of 2 with 1 equiv of 1 and AgOTf. The reactions of 3 and 4 with 2 equiv of 4,4'-bipyridine in acetonitrile afford one-dimensional copper(I) coordination polymers [Cu2(mu2-X)2(mu-PNP)(C10H8N2)]n (13, X = Cl; 14, X = Br). The molecular structures of 2-4, 6-8, 12, and 14 are confirmed by X-ray crystallography.     

Highly luminescent complexes [Mo6X8(n-C3F7COO)6]2- (X=Br, I)

New complexes (Bu(4)N)(2)[Mo(6)X(8)(n-C(3)F(7)COO)(6)] (X = Br, I) display extraordinarily bright long-lived red phosphorescence both in solution and solid phases, with the highest emission quantum yields and the longest emission lifetimes among hexanuclear metal cluster complexes of Mo, W and Re, hitherto reported.     

Linear Trinuclear Pt.Mo-Mo Complexes [Mo(2)PtX(2)(pyphos)(2)(O(2)CR)(2)](2) (X = Cl, Br, I; R = CH(3), C(CH(3))(3); pyphos = 6-(Diphenylphosphino)-2-pyridonate) with an Axial Interaction between the Quadruply Bonded Mo(2) Moiety and the Platinum Atom

An example of a direct axial interaction of a platinum(II) atom with a Mo(2) core through a uniquely designed tridentate ligand 6-(diphenylphosphino)-2-pyridonate (abbreviated as pyphos) is described. Treatment of PtX(2)(pyphosH)(2) (2a, X = Cl; 2b, X = Br; 2c, X = I) with a 1:1 mixture of Mo(2)(O(2)CCH(3))(4) and [Mo(2)(O(2)CCH(3))(2)(NCCH(3))(6)](2+) (3a) in dichloromethane afforded the linear trinuclear complexes [Mo(2)PtX(2)(pyphos)(2)(O(2)CCH(3))(2)](2) (4a, X = Cl; 4b, X = Br; 4c, X = I). The reaction of [Mo(2)(O(2)CCMe(3))(2)(NCCH(3))(4)](2+) (3b) with 2a-c in dichloromethane afforded the corresponding pivalato complexes [Mo(2)PtX(2)(pyphos)(2)(O(2)CCMe(3))(2)](2) (5a, X = Cl; 5b, X = Br; 5c, X = I), whose bonding nature is discussed on the basis of the data from Raman and electronic spectra as well as cyclic voltammograms. The linear trinuclear structures in 4b and 5a-c were confirmed by NMR studies and X-ray analyses: 4b, monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 34.733(4) ?, b = 17.81(1) ?, c = 22.530(5) ?, beta = 124.444(8) degrees, V = 11498(5) ?(3), Z = 8, R = 0.060 for 8659 reflections with I > 3sigma(I) and 588 parameters; 5a, triclinic, space group P&onemacr;, a = 13.541(3) ?, b = 17.029(3) ?, c = 12.896(3) ?, alpha = 101.20(2) degrees, beta = 117.00(1) degrees, gamma = 85.47(2) degrees, V = 2599(1) ?(3), Z = 2, R = 0.050 for 8148 reflections with I > 3sigma(I) and 604 parameters; 5b, triclinic, space group P&onemacr;, a = 12.211(2) ?, b = 20.859(3) ?, c = 10.478(2) ?, alpha = 98.88(1) degrees, beta = 112.55(2) degrees, gamma = 84.56(1) degrees, V = 2433.3(8) ?(3), Z = 2, R = 0.042 for 8935 reflections with I > 3sigma(I) and 560 parameters; 5c, monoclinic, space group P2(1)/n, a = 13.359(4) ?, b = 19.686(3) ?, c = 20.392(4) ?, beta = 107.92(2) degrees, V = 5101(2) ?(3), Z = 4, R = 0.039 for 8432 reflections with I > 3sigma(I) and 560 parameters.     

Resonance Raman Spectra of [M(6)X(8)Y(6)](2)(-) Cluster Complexes (M = Mo, W; X, Y = Cl, Br, I)

Resonance Raman spectra of the cubic metal-halide complexes having the general formula [M(6)X(8)Y(6)](2)(-) (M = Mo or W; X, Y = Cl, Br, or I) are reported. The three totally symmetric fundamental vibrations of these complexes are identified. The extensive mixing of the symmetry coordinates that compose the symmetric normal modes expected in these systems is not observed. Instead the "group-frequency" approximation is valid. Furthermore, the force constants of both the apical and face-bridging metal-halide bonds are insensitive to the identity of either the metal or the halide. Raman spectra of related complexes with methoxy and benzenethiol groups as ligands are reported along with the structural data for [Mo(6)Cl(8)(SPh)(6)][NBu(4)](2). Crystal data for [Mo(6)Cl(8)(SPh)(6)][NBu(4)](2) at -156 degrees C: monoclinic space group P2(1)/c; a = 12.588(3), b = 17.471(5), c = 20.646(2) ?; beta = 118.53(1) degrees, V = 3223.4 ?(3); d(calcd) = 1.664 g cm(-)(3); Z = 2.     

Molybdenum 1,4-diazabuta-1,3-diene tricarbonyl solvento complexes revisited: from solvatochromism to attractive ligand-ligand interaction

Various complexes of the types [Mo(DAD)(CO)(3)L] (L = CO, MeCN, MeOH, THF, DMSO, DMF, Me(2)CO, EtOAc, THT, Im(H), Im(1), tBuNC, nBu(3)P), (ER(4))[Mo(DAD)(CO)(3)X] (ER(4) = NEt(4)(+); X(-) = Cl(-), Br(-), I(-), NCS(-), CN(-) and ER(4)(+) = PPh(4)(+); X(-) = N(3)(-)), and (ER(4))[{Mo(DAD)(CO)(3)}(2)(μ-X)] (ER(4)(+) = NEt(4)(+); X(-) = CN(-), OAc(-) and ER(4)(+) = PPh(4)(+); X(-) = N(3)(-); DAD = N,N'-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)butane-2,3-diimine) were prepared by ligand exchange from cycloheptatriene molybdenum tricarbonyl. A total of 19 crystal structures were determined, including unprecedented structural characterization of molybdenum(0) coordination by dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), methanol, ethyl acetate (EtOAc), acetone, and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). Correlation of (13)C NMR shifts with the complex geometry suggests a direct ligand-ligand interaction between DAD and O-bonded coligands with C═O and S═O double bonds, such as EtOAc, Me(2)CO, DMF, and DMSO. Unexpectedly, the solvatochromic properties of these tricarbonyl complexes [Mo(DAD)(CO)(3)L] are unfavorable for the determination of Kamlet-Taft parameters of the corresponding solvent L. Contrastingly, the UV/vis absorption of [Mo(DAD)(CO)(4)] is strongly correlated with the Kamlet-Taft parameter π*, which is shown for 22 solvents, including seven room temperature ionic liquids.
