Unsaturated Silicon Compounds. 61 [1] Disilenes R*RSi=SiRR* (R* = SitBu₃) with Silicon‐Bound Me and Ph Groups R: Formation, Identification, Thermolysis, Structure Dehalogenations of the 1, 2‐disupersilylsilanes R*MeBrSi—SiBrMeR* (gauche : trans 1.15 : 1.00) and R*PhClSi—SiBrPhR* (gauche : trans = 2.7 : 1.0) in THF with equimolar amounts of NaR* (R* = SitBu₃ = Supersilyl) lead at —78 °C under exchange of bromine for sodium to the disilanides R*MeBrSi—SiNaMeR* and R*PhClSi—SiNaPhR* which are identified by protonation and bromination (formation of R*RXSi—SiX′RR* with R = Me, X/X′ = Br/H, Br/Br: gauche : trans = 1.15 : 1.00, and R = Ph, X/X′ = Cl/H, Cl/Br: gauche : trans = 2.7 : 10, respectively). These eliminate at about —55 °C NaHal with formation of non‐isolable trans‐R*MeSi=SiMeR* and isolable trans‐R*PhSi=SiPhR*. The intermediate existence of the disilene R*MeSi=SiMeR* could be proved by trapping it with PhC≡CPh (formation of a [2+2] cycloadduct; X‐ray structure analysis). In the absence of trapping agents, R*MeSi=SiMeR* decomposes into a mixture of substances, the main product of which is R*MeHSi—SiMeR*—SiHMeR*. The light yellow disilene R*PhSi=SiPhR* has been characterized by spectroscopy (Raman: ν(Si=Si) = 592 cm^—1; UV/VIS: λ_max = 398 nm with ∈ = 1560; ²⁹Si‐NMR: δ(>Si=) = 128 ppm) and by X‐ray structure analysis (planar central framework >Si=Si<; Si=Si distance 2.182Å). R*PhSi=SiPhR* is reduced by lithium in THF with formation of a red radical anion which decomposes at room temperature into hitherto non‐identified products. At about 70 °C, R*PhSi=SiPhR* decomposes with intramolecular insertion of the Si=Si group into a C—H bond of a Ph group and with change of configuration of the R* groups, which at first are trans then cis‐positioned (X‐ray structure analysis of the thermolysis product).     

Oxidative Addition of Haloheteroarenes to Palladium(0): Concerted versus SNAr‐Type Mechanism

The kinetics of the oxidative additions of haloheteroarenes HetX (X=I, Br, Cl) to [Pd⁰(PPh₃)₂] (generated from [Pd⁰(PPh₃)₄]) have been investigated in THF and DMF and the rate constants have been determined. In contrast to the generally accepted concerted mechanism, Hammett plots obtained for substituted 2‐halopyridines and solvent effects reveal a reaction mechanism dependent on the halide X of HetX: an unprecedented S_NAr‐type mechanism for X=Br or Cl and a classical concerted mechanism for X=I. These results are supported by DFT studies.     

Dihalomethanes as Bent Bifunctional XB/XB‐Donating Building Blocks for Construction of Metal‐involving Halogen Bonded Hexagons

The dihalomethanes CH₂X₂ (X=Cl, Br, I) were co‐crystallized with the isocyanide complexes trans‐[MX^M₂(CNC₆H₄‐4‐X^C)₂] (M=Pd, Pt; X^M=Br, I; X^C=F, Cl, Br) to give an extended series comprising 15 X‐ray structures of isostructural adducts featuring 1D metal‐involving hexagon‐like arrays. In these structures, CH₂X₂ behave as bent bifunctional XB/XB‐donating building blocks, whereas trans‐[MX^M₂(CNC₆H₄‐4‐X^C)₂] act as a linear XB/XB acceptors. Results of DFT calculations indicate that all XCH₂–X???X^M–M contacts are typical noncovalent interactions with estimated strengths in the range of 1.3–3.2 kcal mol^?1. A CCDC search reveals that hexagon‐like arrays are rather common but previously overlooked structural motives for adducts of trans‐bis(halide) complexes and halomethanes.     

The infrared spectra of imidazole complexes of platinum(II) halides and nitrite

Summary The i.r. spectra (4000-90 cm^–1) of the [Pt(Him)₄]X₂ complexes (Him = imidazole, X = Cl, Br or I) andcis- andtrans-[Pt(Him)₂X₂] (X = Cl, Br, I or NO₂) and their D₃-labelled analogues have been determined. The distinction between the ring and C-H (or N-H) modes of imidazole is based on the relative shifts which these bands undergo on D₃-labelling. Assignments, based on the effects of imidazole deuteriation and halide substitution, are provided for the v(Pt-Him) and v(Pt-X) modes.     

Gold(I) complexes of thioamides

Summary Gold(I) forms linear [AuL₂]X complexes (X = Cl, Br, I or CIO₄) with thioacetamide and thiobenzamide, AuLX compounds with thiobenzamide (X = CI or Br),N, N-dimethylthioformamide (X = Cl, Br or 1) andN-dimethylthioacetamide (X = CI, Br or 1). Thev(AuS) vibrations are assigned in the 320-260 cm^–1 range. The i.r. spectra further suggest hydrogen bonding between the ligands and the anions. The conductivity measurements indicate dissociation of the [AuL₂]X complexes (X = halide) and coordination of X in solution.Presented in part at the XIX ICCC, Prague, 1978.     

Four-Center Nodes: Supramolecular Synthons Based on Cyclic Halogen Bonding

The isocyanide trans-[PdBr₂(CNC₆H₄-4-X′)₂] (X′=Br, I) and nitrile trans-[PtX₂(NCC₆H₄-4-X′)₂] (X/X′=Cl/Cl, Cl/Br, Br/Cl, Br/Br) complexes exhibit similar structural motif in the solid state, which is determined by hitherto unreported four-center nodes formed by cyclic halogen bonding. Each node is built up by four Type II C−X′⋅⋅⋅X−M halogen-bonding contacts and include one Type I M−X⋅⋅⋅X−M interaction, thus giving the rhombic-like structure. These nodes serve as supramolecular synthons to form 2D layers or double chains of molecules linked by a halogen bond. Results of DFT calculations indicate that all contacts within the nodes are typical noncovalent interactions with the estimated strengths in the range 0.6–2.9 kcal mol⁻¹.     

Alternative Synthesis and Structures of C‐monoacetylenic Phosphaalkenes

An alternative synthesis of C‐monoacetylenic phosphaalkenes trans‐Mes*P=C(Me)(C≡CR) (Mes* = 2, 4, 6‐^tBu₃Ph, R = Ph, SiMe₃) from C‐bromophosphaalkenes cis‐Mes*P=C(Me)Br using standard Sonogashira coupling conditions is described. Crystallographic studies confirm cis‐trans isomerization of the P=C double bond during Pd‐catalyzed cross coupling, leading exclusively to trans‐acetylenic phosphaalkenes. Crystallographic studies of all synthesized compounds reveal the extend of π‐conjugation over the acetylene and P=C π‐systems.     

Complexes of 8-Aminoouinoline. II. The Infrared Spectra of the Bisand Mono(Aminoquinoline) Complexes of Metal(II) Halides

Abstract

The infrared spectra of the complexes M(aq)₂(H₂O)₂X₂ (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Cu; aq = 8-aminoquinoline; X =Cl, Br) have been determined over the range 4000-50 cm^?1. Absence of vM-X bands indicates that the halide is not coordinated to the metal ion and the complexes are correctly formulated [M(aq)₂-(H₂O)₂]X₂. Deuteration of the amino group and the effects of metal ion substitution enable assignment of the vM-NH₂, vM-N and vM-OH₂ modes as well as the amino group vibrations. ¹⁸ O-Labelling assists in identifying the vO-H, vO-H……X and δO-H bands. The spectra are consistent with trans-octahedral coordination and axial bonding of the water molecules. The far infrared spectra of the mono(aminoquinoline) complexes [M(aq)X₂]_n (M = Cu, Zn; X = Cl, Br) are consistent with the proposed structure of polymeric octahedral coordination involving both bridging and terminal M-X bonds. The vM-NH₂, vM-N, vM-X(terminal) and vM-X(bridging) bands are assigned by studying the effects of amino group deuteration, metal ion substitution and halide substitution.     

Mixed dimethyl sulfoxide-thiocarbamic ester complexes of platinum(II) halides

Summary The platinum(II) halidecis-[Pt(DMTC)(DMSO)X₂] andcis-[Pt(DETC)(DMSO)X₂](X=Cl or Br; DMSO=dimethyl sulfoxide; DMTC=EtOSCN-Me₂; DETC=EtOSCNEt₂) adducts and the platinum(II) and palladium(II) halide adducts,trans-[M(DETC)₂X₂] (M=Pt or Pd; X=Cl or Br), have been prepared. The complexes were characterized by i.r., and¹H and¹³Cn.m.r. spectroscopy. Both DMTC and DETC coordinate through the sulphur atoms. The 1:2 DETC complexes present the usualtrans configuration, whereas the presence of DMSO favourscis geometry in the mixed species.     

OsII-Phthalocyaninate(2−): Darstellung und Eigenschaften von (Halogeno)-(carbonyl)phthalocyaninato(2−)osmat(II)

Os^II Phthalocyaninates(2?): Synthesis and Properties of (Halo)(carbonyl)phthalocyaninato-(2?)osmate(II) Soluble, blue tetra(n-butyl)ammonium (halo)(carbonyl)phthalocyaninato(2?)osmate(II), (ⁿBu₄N)[Os(X)(CO)Pc^2?] (X = Cl, Br, I) is obtained by the reaction of [Os(THF)(CO)Pc^2?] (THF: tetrahydrofurane) with (ⁿBu₄N)X in THF. In the cyclovoltammograms there are three reversible electrode processes at ?1.21 ± 0.01, 0.18 ± 0.04 and 0.65 ± 0.01 V assigned to the three redox pairs Pc^2?/Pc^3?, Os^II/Os^III and Pc^2?/Pc^3?. In the electronic absorption spectra only the intense B and Q regions are observed at ～ 15800 resp. 27500, 33000 cm^?1. The infrared and resonance Raman spectra closely resemble those of other phthalocyaninates(2?) of low valent osmium. In the infrared spectrum v(C? O) is detected at 1896 ± 4 cm^?1 and v(Os? X) at 260 (X = Cl), 175 (X = Br) or 143 cm^?1 (X = I).     

A Mechanistic Study on Reactions of Group 13 Diyls LM with Cp*SbX2: From Stibanyl Radicals to Antimony Hydrides

Oxidative addition of Cp*SbX₂ (X=Cl, Br, I; Cp*=C₅Me₅) to group 13 diyls LM (M=Al, Ga, In; L=HC[C(Me)N (Dip)]₂, Dip=2,6-iPr₂C₆H₃) yields elemental antimony (M=Al) or the corresponding stibanylgallanes [L(X)Ga]Sb(X)Cp* (X=Br 1 , I 2 ) and -indanes [L(X)In]Sb(X)Cp* (X=Cl 5 , Br 6 , I 7 ). 1 and 2 react with a second equivalent of LGa to eliminate decamethyl-1,1’-dihydrofulvalene (Cp*₂) and form stibanyl radicals [L(X)Ga]₂Sb ^. (X=Br 3 , I 4 ), whereas analogous reactions of 5 and 6 with LIn selectively yield stibanes [L(X)In]₂SbH (X=Cl 8 , Br 9 ) by elimination of 1,2,3,4-tetramethylfulvene. The reactions are proposed to proceed via formation of [L(X)M]₂SbCp* as reaction intermediate, which is supported by the isolation of [L(Cl)Ga]₂SbCp ( 11 , Cp=C₅H₅). The reaction mechanism was further studied by computational calculations using two different models. The energy values for the Ga- and the In-substituted model systems showing methyl groups instead of the very bulky Dip units are very similar, and in both cases the same products are expected. Homolytic Sb−C bond cleavage yields van der Waals complexes from the as-formed radicals ([L(Cl)M]₂Sb ^. and Cp* ^. ), which can be stabilized by hydrogen atom abstraction to give the corresponding hydrides, whereas the direct formation of Sb hydrides starting from [L(Cl)M]₂SbCp* via concerted β-H elimination is unlikely. The consideration of the bulky Dip units reveals that the amount of the steric overload in the intermediate I determines the product formation (radical vs. hydride).     

Synthese und Struktur gemischt‐substituierter Dialane Al2X2{Si(SiMe3)3}2 · 2 THF (X = Cl,Br)

Synthesis and Structure of two Mixed Substituted Dialanes Al₂X₂{Si(SiMe₃)₃}₂ · 2 THF (X = Cl, Br) The syntheses of tris(trimethylsilyl)silyl (hypersilyl) and halide substituted dialanes Al₂X₂{Si(SiMe₃)₃}₂ · 2 THF (X = Cl, Br) are presented.

Structure and Conformational Stability of 1,3-Dihalo-2,2,4,4-tetrachloro-1λ3,3λ3-diphosphetidines

The optimal geometry of isomeric molecules of (XP-CCl₂)₂ with X = F, Cl, Br was determined by RHF/6-31G(d) calculations. With X = F and Cl, the electronic correlation was considered on the MP2/6-31G(d) level. The P₂C₂ ring is nonplanar. With X = Cl and Br, the trans conformation is energetically preferable compared to the two possible cis conformations: by 7.8 and 14.2 kJ mol^{- 1} for X = Cl and by 7.5 and 14.1 kJ mol^{- 1} with X = Br. respectively. With X = F, the calculated energies of the cis and trans forms are very close.     

Ruthenium(II)-Phthalocyaninate(2–): Darstellung und Eigenschaften von Acido(carbonyl)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenat(II), [Ru(X)(CO)Pc2−]− (X = Cl,Br, I,NCO, NCS,N3)

Ruthenium(II) Phthalocyaninates(2–): Synthesis and Properties of (Acido)(carbonyl)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenate(II), [Ru(X)(CO)Pc^2?]^? (X = Cl, Br, I, NCO, NCS, N₃) (ⁿBu₄N)[Ru(OH)₂Pc^2?] is reduced in acetone with carbonmonoxid to blue-violet [Ru(H₂O)(CO)Pc^2?], which yields in tetrahydrofurane with excess (ⁿBu₄N)X acido(carbonyl)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenate(II), [Ru(X)(CO)Pc^2?]^? (X = Cl, Br, I, NCO, NCS, N₃) isolated as red-violet, diamagnetic (ⁿBu₄N) complex salt. The UV-Vis spectra are dominated by the typical π-π* transitions of the Pc^2? ligand at approximately 15100 (B), 28300 (Q₁) und 33500 cm^?1 (Q₂), only fairly dependent of the axial ligands. v(C? O) is observed at 1927 (X = I), 1930 (Cl, Br), 1936 (N₃, NCO) 1948 cm^?1 (NCS), v(C? N) at 2208 cm^?1 (NCO), 2093 cm^?1 (NCS) and v(N? N) at 2030 cm^?1 only in the MIR spectrum. v(Ru? C) coincides in the FIR spectrum with a deformation vibration of the Pc ligand, but is detected in the resonance Raman(RR) spectrum at 516 (X = Cl), 512 (Br), 510 (N₃), 504 (I), 499 (NCO), 498 cm^?1 (NCS). v(Ru? X) is observed in the FIR spectrum at 257 (X = Cl), 191 (Br), 166 (I), 349 (N₃), 336 (NCO) and 224 cm^?1 (NCS). Only v(Ru? I) is RR-enhanced.     

Structural and physicochemical characterization of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) complexes with 1,4‐dimethy‐lhomopiperazine

In order to know the relationship between structures and physicochemical properties of Group 12 metal(II) ions, the complexes with ‘simple’ ligands, such as alkyl cyclic diamine ligand and halide ions, were synthesized by the reaction of 1,4‐dimethylhomopiperazine (hp′) with MX₂ as metal sources (M = Zn, Cd; X = Cl, Br, I). The five structural types, [ZnX₂(hp′)] (X = Cl ( 1 ), Br ( 2 ) and I ( 3 )), [ZnX₃(Hhp′)] (X = Cl ( 1′ ) and Br ( 2′ )), [CdCl₂(hp′)]_n ( 4 ), [{CdCl₂(Hhp′)}₂(µ‐Cl)₂] ( 4′ ) and [{CdX(hp′)}₂(µ‐X)₂] (X = Br ( 5 ), I ( 6 )), were determined by X‐ray analysis. The sizes of both metal(II) and halide ions and the difference in each other's polarizability influence each structure. All complexes were characterized by IR, far‐IR, Raman and UV–Vis absorption spectroscopies. In the far‐IR and Raman spectra, the typical ν(M N) and ν(M X) peaks clearly depend on the five structural types around 540–410 cm⁻¹ and 350–160 cm⁻¹ respectively. The UV–Vis absorption band energy around 204–250 nm also reflects each structural type. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Poly(hydrogen halide) Halogenates (–I)

Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of a variety of novel poly(hydrogen halide) halogenates (−I). The bifluoride ion, which is known to have the highest hydrogen bond energy of ≈160 kJ mol⁻¹, is the most famous among many examples of [X(HX)_n]⁻ anions (X=F, Cl) known in the literature. In contrast, little is known about poly(hydrogen halide) halogenates containing two different halogens, ([X(HY)_n]⁻). In this work we present the synthesis of anions of the type [X(HY)_n]⁻ (X=Br, I, ClO₄; Y=Cl, Br, CN) stabilized by the [PPh₄]⁺ and [PPN]⁺ cation. The obtained compounds have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and quantum-chemical calculations. In addition, the behavior of halide ions in hydrogen fluoride was investigated by using experimental and quantum-chemical methods in order to gain knowledge on the acidity of hydrogen halides in HF.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Copper(I) Complexes Containing Tri(2‐Pyridylmethyl)Amine Ligand

Reaction of copper halides CuX (X=Cl, Br, I) with tri(2‐pyridylmethyl)amine) (TPMA) in THF under N₂ affords a series of monomeric copper(I) complexes CuX(TPMA) (X=Cl ( 1 ), Br ( 2 ) and I ( 3 )). Treatment of [CuCl(TPMA)] ( 1 ) with 0.5 equivalent of 1,4‐diisocyanobenzene following by equimolar amount of NaBF₄ affords a novel binuclear complex [(TPMA)Cu(μ‐1,4‐CNC₆H₄NC)Cu(TPMA)](BF₄)₂ ( 4 ). The copper(I) halide TPMA complexes show interesting fluxional behaviors in temperature dependence in the ¹H NMR spectrum that can be explained by the dissociation and reassociation of the pyridyl group and alkylamine nitrogen of TPMA ligand. The crystal structures of 1 , 3 and 4 are determined by an X‐ray diffractometer. Complexes 1 and 3 are distorted tetrahedral coordinates with strong bonding between three pyridyl N atoms and the corresponding halide donor. Crystallographic results of 4 clearly indicates two Cu(I) ions are bridged by 1,4‐diisocyanobenzene, forming a centro‐symmetrical homobinuclear complex with a “dangling” uncoordinated pyridyl group.     

Piperazinium,Ethylenediammonium or 4,4′‐Bipyridinium Halocuprates(I) by CuII/Cu0 Comproportionation

1‐Dimensional halocuprate(I) chains [(Cu₂X₄)^2–]_n (= [(CuX₂)^–]_n, X = Cl, Br, I) have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions through in‐situ reduction of Cu^IIX₂ with Fe^IIX₂ or as phase pure materials through comproportionation of Cu^IIX₂ or Cu^IIO with Cu⁰ metal in the presence of the respective aqueous hydrogen halide HX and a templating amine. Chains of trans edge‐sharing tetrahedra are obtained with piperazinium or ethylenediammonium dications, while the 4,4′‐bipyridinium dication gave chains of cis edge‐sharing tetrahedra. Two monoprotonated piperazinium groups act as cationic ligands (Hpipz⁺) towards copper atoms in a molecular [Cu₄(μ‐Br₆)(Hpipz)₂] cluster. Electrical crystal conductivities of the halocuprate [(Cu₂X₄)^2–]_n (= [(CuX₂)^–]_n) chains (X = Cl, Br, I) are around 10^–8 S · cm^–1 at room temperature.     

Polymerization by alkaline earth metal compounds—II Polymerization of 2- and 4-vinylpyridine,styrene and butadiene by triphenylmethyl derivatives of calcium,strontium and barium

Investigations are reported on polymerizations of 2- and 4- vinylpyridine, styrene and butadiene by a series of related alkaline earth metal initiators, Ph₃CMX(THF)_n (M = Ca, Ba, X = Cl, n = 2; M = Ca, X = Br, n = 4; M = Sr, X = Cl, n = 4; M = Sr, X = Br, n = 5) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) or 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) at various temperatures and in the absence of solvent. The polymers have been examined by GPC and aspects of their microstructures determined by ¹³C and/or ¹H NMR spectroscopy and, for polybutadiene, i.r. spectroscopy. Poly-2-vinylpyridine produced by Ph₃CMX(THF)_n is rich in isotactic content; the isotacticity is higher for polymer formed in THF than DME solution, falls with change of initiator in the order M = Ca > Sr > Ba and, in DME, is greater when X = Br. The tacticities of poly-4-vinylpyridine and polystyrene are similar to those obtained from related organometallic initiators. The 1,4-content of polybutadiene decreases with initiator Ph₃CMX(THF)_n in the order M = Ba > Sr > Ca; the trans-1,4 structure generally predominates except when M = Ba from which cis-1,4 links are formed in comparable amounts.     

Solution behavior and structural properties of Cu(I) complexes featuring m-terphenyl isocyanides

The synthesis of the m-terphenyl isocyanide ligand CNAr (Mes2) (Mes = 2,4,6-Me 3C 6H 2) is described. Isocyanide CNAr (Mes2) readily functions as a sterically encumbering supporting unit for several Cu(I) halide and pseudo halide fragments, fostering in some cases rare structural motifs. Combination of equimolar quantities of CNAr (Mes2) and CuX (X = Cl, Br and I) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution results in the formation of the bridging halide complexes (mu-X) 2[Cu(THF)(CNAr (Mes2))] 2. Addition of CNAr (Mes2) to cuprous chloride in a 2:1 molar ratio generates the complex ClCu(CNAr (Mes2)) 2 in a straightforward manner. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction has revealed ClCu(CNAr (Mes2)) 2 to exist as a three-coordinate monomer in the solid state. As determined by solution (1)H NMR and FTIR spectroscopic studies, monomer ClCu(CNAr (Mes2)) 2 resists tight binding of a third CNAr (Mes2) unit, resulting in rapid isocyanide exchange. Contrastingly, addition of 3 equiv of CNAr (Mes2) to cuprous iodide readily affords the tris-isocyanide species, ICu(CNAr (Mes2)) 3, as determined by X-ray diffraction. Similar coordination behavior is observed in the tris-isocyanide salt [(THF)Cu(CNAr (Mes2)) 3]OTf (OTf = O 3SCF 3), which is generated upon treatment of (C 6H 6)[Cu(OTf)] 2 with 6 equiv of CNAr (Mes2) in THF. The disparate coordination behavior of the [CuCl] fragment relative to both [CuI] and [CuOTf] is rationalized in terms of structure and Lewis acidity of the Cu-containing fragments. The putative triflate species [Cu(CNAr (Mes2)) 3]OTf itself serves as a good Lewis acid and is found to weakly bind C 6H 6 in an eta (1)- C manner in the solid-state. Density Functional Theory is used to describe the bonding and energetics of the eta (1)- C Cu-C 6H 6 interaction.
