Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität von η1und η3‐Allyl‐Rhenium‐Carbonylen

Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity of η¹‐ and η³‐Allyl Rhenium Carbonyls In (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ one CO ligand can be substituted by PPh₃, pyridine, isocyanide and benzonitrile. With 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethylene, 1,1′‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene and 1,2‐bis(4‐pyridyl)ethane dinuclear ligand bridged complexes are obtained. The η³‐η¹ conversion of the allyl ligand occurs on reaction of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ with the bidendate ligands 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane and 1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphino)propane and with 2,2′‐bipyridine (L–L) which gives the complexes (η¹‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(L–L). By reaction of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane the allyl group is protonated and under elemination of propene the complex (OC)₃Re(Ph₂PCHPPh₂)(η¹‐Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂) ( 19 ) with a diphosphinomethanide ligand is formed. On heating solutions of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ and (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(CN‐2,5‐Me₂C₆H₃) ( 5 ) in methanol the methoxy bridged compounds Re₄(CO)₁₂(OH)(OMe)₃ and Re₂(CO)₄(CN‐2,5‐Me₂C₆H₃)₄(μ‐OMe)₂ ( 20 ) were isolated. The crystal structures of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(CNCH₂SiMe₃) ( 4 ), [(η³‐C₃H₅)(OC)₃Re]₂‐ (μ‐bis‐(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) ( 8 ), (η¹‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃‐ (bpy) ( 14 ), of 19 , 20 and of (OC)₃Re‐[Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂]Cl ( 16 ) were determined by X‐ray diffraction.

Similarly, phosphenium complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂M=P(H)tBu] (M = W ( 6 ); Mo ( 8 )) were converted into (M = W ( 11 ); Mo ( 12 )) by the formal abstraction of the phosphanediyl [PtBu] from 1a . Treatment of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W=P(Ph)N(SiMe₃)₂] ( 4 ) with HP=C(NMe₂)₂ ( 1d ) gave rise to the formation of yellow crystalline ( 10 ). The products were characterized by elemental analyses and spectra (IR, ¹H, ¹³C‐, ³¹P‐NMR, MS). The molecular structure of compound 10 was elucidated by an X‐ray diffraction analysis.

X-Ray Structure Analysis of [(η⁵-1,3-tBu₂C₅H₃){η⁵-1,2-[Co₂(CO)₆]-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}] Reaction of metallo-1,2-diphosphapropene (η⁵-tBuC₅H₄)(CO)₂Fe? P(SiMe₃)? P?C(SiMe₃)₂ with (Z-cyclooctene)Cr(CO)₅ afforded the pentacarbonylchromium adduct of a 1,2-diphosphaferrocene [(η⁵-tBuC₅C₅H₄){η⁵-1-[Cr(CO)₅]-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}Fe] ( 1 c ). Diphosphaferrocene [(η⁵-tBuC₅H₄){η⁵-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}Fe] ( 2 c ) was formed when (η⁵-tBuC₅H₄)(CO)₂FeBr was treated with (Me₃Si)₂P? P?C(SiMe₃)₂ in toluene at 60°C. Photolysis of molybdenum- and tungsten hexacarbonyl in the presence of [(η⁵-1,3-tBu₂C₅H₃){η⁵-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}Fe] ( 2 b ) gave the pentacarbonylmetal adducts 8 (M = Mo) and 9 (M = W), respectively. A corresponding manganese derivative resulted from the photochemical reaction of 2 b and (MeC₅H₄)Mn(CO)₃. Treatment of 2 b with Co₂(CO)₈ yielded trinuclear [(η⁵-1,3-tBu₂C₅H₃){η⁵-1,2-[Co₂(CO)₆]-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}Fe] ( 11 ). Constitution and configuration of compounds 1 c, 2 c, 8 – 11 were determined by elemental analyses and spectra (IR, ¹H-, ¹³C-, ³¹P-NMR, MS). In addition the molecular structure of 11 was established by single crystal X-ray analysis.     

Ansa‐Complexes of [Mn(η5‐C5H5)(η6‐C6H6)]: Preparation,Characterization, and Reactivity of [n]Manganoarenophanes (n=1, 2, 3)

We report the synthesis of [n]manganoarenophanes (n=1, 2) featuring boron, silicon, germanium, and tin as ansa‐bridging elements. Their preparation was achieved by salt‐elimination reactions of the dilithiated precursor [Mn(η⁵‐C₅H₄Li)(η⁶‐C₆H₅Li)]?pmdta (pmdta=N,N,N′,N′,N′′‐pentamethyldiethylenetriamine) with corresponding element dichlorides. Besides characterization by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis, the identity of two single‐atom‐bridged derivatives, [Mn(η⁵‐C₅H₄)(η⁶‐C₆H₅)SntBu₂] and [Mn(η⁵‐C₅H₄)(η⁶‐C₆H₅)SiPh₂], could also be determined by X‐ray structural analysis. We investigated for the first time the reactivity of these ansa‐cyclopentadienyl–benzene manganese compounds. The reaction of the distannyl‐bridged complex [Mn(η⁵‐C₅H₄)(η⁶‐C₆H₅)Sn₂tBu₄] with elemental sulfur was shown to proceed through the expected oxidative addition of the Sn?Sn bond to give a triatomic ansa‐bridge. The investigation of the ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) capability of [Mn(η⁵‐C₅H₄)(η⁶‐C₆H₅)SntBu₂] with [Pt(PEt₃)₃] showed that an unexpected, unselective insertion into the C_ipso?Sn bonds of [Mn(η⁵‐C₅H₄)(η⁶‐C₆H₅)SntBu₂] had occurred.     

Zur Reaktivität der Ferriophosphaalkene [(η5‐C5Me5)(CO)2FeP=C(NR)R2] (NR = NMe2, NC5H10, R2 = Ph,tBu) gegenüber Protonsäuren,Alkylierungsmitteln und [{(Z)‐Cycloocten}Cr(CO)5]

Compounds 2 a – c were converted into [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeP(Me)C(NR )R²] (SO₃CF₃) ( 4 a – c ) by treatment with methyl trifluoromethane sulfonate. In addition 2 a and Me₃SiCH₂OSO₂CF₃ afforded light red [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeP(CH₂SiMe₃)C(NMe₂)Ph](SO₃CF₃) ( 5 ). The black complex [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeP{Cr(CO)₅}C(NMe₂)Ph] ( 6 ) resulted from the combination of 2 a with [{(Z)‐cyclooctene}Cr(CO)₅]. The novel products were characterized by elemental analyses and spectra (IR, ¹H‐, ¹³C‐ und ³¹P‐NMR).

Heterobimetallic Phosphanido-bridged Dinuclear Complexes - Syntheses of cis-rac-[(η-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{μ-PH(2,4,6-ⁱPr₃C₆H₂)}₂M(CO)₄] (R?Me, M?Cr, Mo; R?H, M?Mo) The zirconocene bisphosphanido complexes [(η-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{PH(2,4,6-ⁱPr₃C₆H₂)}₂] (R?Me, H) react with [(NBD)M(CO)₄] (NBD?norbornadiene, M?Cr, Mo) to give only one diastereomer of the phosphanido-bridged heterobimetallic dinuclear complexes cis-rac-[(η-C₅H₄R)₂Zr{μ-PH(2,4,6-ⁱPr₃C₆H₂)}₂M(CO)₄] [R?Me, M?Cr ( 1 ), Mo ( 2 ); R?H, M?Mo ( 3 )]. However, no reaction was observed between [(η-C₅H₅)₂Zr{PH(2,4,6-^tBu₃ C₆H₂)}₂] and [Pt(PPh₃)₄]. 1—3 were characterised spectroscopically. For 1—3 , the presence of the racemic isomer was shown by NMR spectroscopy. No reaction was observed at room temperature for 3 and CS₂, (NO)BF₄, Me₃NO or PH(2,4,6-Me₃C₆H₂)₂. With Et₂AlH or PhC?CH decomposition of 3 was observed.

The conformational isomers endo‐ and exo‐[Mo{η³‐C₃H₄(CH₃)}(η²‐pyS)(CO)(η²‐diphos)] (diphos: dppm = {bis(diphenylphosphino)methane}, 2 ; dppe = {1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane}, 3 ) are prepared by reacting the double‐bridged pyridine‐2‐thionate (pyS) complex [Mo{η³‐C₃H₄(CH₃)}(CO)₂]₂(η¹:η²:μ‐pyS)₂, 1 with diphos in refluxing acetonitrile. Stereoselectivity of the methallyl, C₃H₄(CH₃), ligand improves the formation of the exo‐conformation of 2 and 3 . Orientations and spectroscopy of these complexes are discussed.     

Diimido‐, Imido(oxo)‐, Dioxo‐ und Imido(alkyliden)‐Halbsandwich‐Verbindungen über selektive Hydrolyse und α—H‐Abstraktion an Organylkomplexen des sechswertigen Molybdäns und Wolframs

Diimido, Imido Oxo, Dioxo, and Imido Alkylidene Halfsandwich Compounds via Selective Hydrolysis and α—H Abstraction in Molybdenum(VI) and Tungsten(VI) Organyl Complexes Organometal imides [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)₂Ph] (M = Mo, W, R = H, Me, R′ = Mes, tBu) 4 — 8 can be prepared by reaction of halfsandwich complexes [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)₂Cl] with phenyl lithium in good yields. Starting from phenyl complexes 4 — 8 as well as from previously described methyl compounds [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)₂Me] (M = Mo, W), reactions with aqueous HCl lead to imido(oxo) methyl and phenyl complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)(O)(R)] M = Mo, R = Me ( 9 ), Ph ( 10 ); M = W, R = Ph ( 11 ) and dioxo complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(O)₂(CH₃)] M = Mo ( 12 ), M = W ( 13 ). Hydrolysis of organometal imides with conservation of M‐C σ and π bonds is in fact an attractive synthetic alternative for the synthesis of organometal oxides with respect to known strategies based on the oxidative decarbonylation of low valent alkyl CO and NO complexes. In a similar manner, protolysis of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)W(NtBu)₂(CH₃)] and [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)Mo(NtBu)₂(CH₃)] by HCl gas leads to [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)W(NtBu)Cl₂(CH₃)] 14 und [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)Mo(NtBu)Cl₂(CH₃)] 15 with conservation of the M‐C bonds. The inert character of the relatively non‐polar M‐C σ bonds with respect to protolysis offers a strategy for the synthesis of methyl chloro complexes not accessible by partial methylation of [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NR′)Cl₃] with MeLi. As pure substances only trimethyl compounds [(η⁵‐C₅R₅)M(NtBu)(CH₃)₃] 16 ‐ 18 , M = Mo, W, R = H, Me, are isolated. Imido(benzylidene) complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)(CHPh)(CH₂Ph)] M = Mo ( 19 ), W ( 20 ) are generated by alkylation of [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)M(NtBu)Cl₃] with PhCH₂MgCl via α‐H abstraction. Based on nmr data a trend of decreasing donor capability of the ligands [NtBu]^2— > [O]^2— > [CHR]^2— ? 2 [CH₃]^— > 2 [Cl]^— emerges.

Reactions of one or two equiv. of cyclohexyl isocyanide in THF at room temperature with Mo?Mo triply bonded complexes [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)]₂ (R=COCH₃, CO₂CH₃) gave the isocyanide coordinated Mo? Mo singly bonded complexes with functionally substituted cyclopentadienyl ligands, [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)]₂(μ‐η²‐CNC₆H₁₁) ( 1a , R=COCH₃; 1b , R=CO₂CH₃) and [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)(CNC₆H₁₁)]₂ ( 2a , R=COCH₃; 2b , R=CO₂CH₃), respectively. Complexes 1a , 1b and 2a , 2b could be more conveniently prepared by thermal decarbonylation of Mo? Mo singly bonded complexes [Mo(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)]₂ (R=COCH₃, CO₂CH₃) in toluene at reflux, followed by treatment of the resulting Mo?Mo triply bonded complexes [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵‐C₅H₄R)]₂ (R=COCH₃, CO₂CH₃) in situ with cyclohexyl isocyanide. While 1a , 1b and 2a , 2b were characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopy, 1b was further characterized by X‐ray crystallography.

No formation of dinuclear complexes was observed in the reaction of (η⁵-C₅H₄Me)₂Zr{P(SiMe₃)₂}₂ with Ni(PEt₃)₄, Ni(CO)₂(PPh₃)₂ or with NiCl₂(PPh₃)₂ in the presence of Mg. Complexes 1 – 3 were characterised spectroscopically (i. r., n. m. r., m. s.), and X-ray structure investigations were carried out on 1 and 2 . The central four-membered ZrP₂M ring is slightly puckered (dihedral angle between planes ZrP₂/CrP₂ 14.7°, ZrP₂/MoP₂ 14.2°). The Zr? P bond lengths are equivalent ( 1 : Zr? P1 2.654(4), Zr?

The long Zr ··· M distances of 3.414 Å (M = Cr ( 1 )) and 3.461 Å (M = Mo ( 2 )) indicate the absence of a metal-metal bond.     

Synthesis,Characterization and Reactivity of the Tricarbonyl(formylcycloheptatrienyl)iron‐Anion [(η3‐C7H6CHO)Fe(CO)3]−

Deprotonation of the readily available organometallic aldehyde derivative [(η⁴‐C₇H₇CHO)Fe(CO)₃] ( 2 ) with NaN(SiMe₃)₂ in benzene solution at ambient temperature afforded the anionic formylcycloheptatrienyl complex Na[(η³‐C₇H₆CHO)Fe(CO)₃] ( 3 ). The anion is fluxional in solution and displays a unique ambident reactivity towards electrophiles (MeI, Me₃SiCl). New substituted [(η⁴‐RC₇H₆CHO)Fe(CO)₃] and [(η⁴‐heptafulvene)Fe(CO)₃] complexes have been identified as the products. Treatment of 3 with 0.5 equivalents of dimeric [(COD)RhCl]₂ (COD = 1,5‐cyclooctadiene) afforded the functionalized Fe‐Rh cycloheptatrienyl complex [(μ‐C₇H₆CHO)(CO)₃FeRh(COD)] ( 7 ) in up to 86 % yield. Carbonylation of 7 under an atmosphere of CO led to facile conversion to the heterobimetallic pentacarbonyl derivative [(μ‐C₇H₆CHO)(CO)₃FeRh(CO)₂] ( 8 ), which is also accessible in lower yield from the direct reaction of 3 with [Rh(CO)₂Cl]₂.

With [(η²‐C₈H₁₄)₂Fe(CO)₃] in addition to [μ‐(1, 2, 3:4‐η‐^tBu₂P¹‐P²‐P³‐P^4tBu₂){Fe(CO)₂PMe^tBu₂}‐{Fe(CO)₄}] ( 10 ) and 2 also [(μ‐P^tBu₂){μ‐P‐Fe(CO)₃‐PMe^tBu₂}‐{Fe(CO)₃}₂(Fe‐Fe)]( 9 ) is formed. 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 875.0(2), b = 1073.2(2), c = 3162.6(6) pm and β = 94.64(3)?. 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 1643.4(7), b = 1240.29(6), c = 2667.0(5) pm and β = 97.42(2)?. 9 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 1407.5(5), b = 1649.7(5), c = 1557.9(16) pm and β = 112.87(2)?.     

Platinum Complexes of a Borane‐Appended Analogue of 1,1′‐Bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene: Flexible Borane Coordination Modes and in situ Vinylborane Formation

A bis(phosphine)borane ambiphilic ligand, [Fe(η⁵‐C₅H₄PPh₂)(η⁵‐C₅H₄PtBu{C₆H₄(BPh₂)‐ortho})] (FcPPB), in which the borane occupies a terminal position, was prepared. Reaction of FcPPB with tris(norbornene)platinum(0) provided [Pt(FcPPB)] ( 1 ) in which the arylborane is η³BCC‐coordinated. Subsequent reaction with CO and CNXyl (Xyl=2,6‐dimethylphenyl) afforded [PtL(FcPPB)] {L=CO ( 2 ) and CNXyl ( 3 )} featuring η²BC‐ and η¹B‐arylborane coordination modes, respectively. Reaction of 1 or 2 with H₂ yielded [PtH(μ‐H)(FcPPB)] in which the borane is bound to a hydride ligand on platinum. Addition of PhC₂H to [Pt(FcPPB)] afforded [Pt(C₂Ph)(μ‐H)(FcPPB)] ( 5 ), which rapidly converted to [Pt(FcPPB′)] ( 6 ; FcPPB′=[Fe(η⁵‐C₅H₄PPh₂)(η⁵‐C₅H₄PtBu{C₆H₄(BPh‐CPh=CHPh‐Z)‐ortho}]) in which the newly formed vinylborane is η³BCC‐coordinated. Unlike arylborane complex 1 , vinylborane complex 6 does not react with CO, CNXyl, H₂ or HC₂Ph at room temperature.     

Dinuclear Rare‐Earth Metal Alkyl Complexes Supported by Indolyl Ligands in μ‐η2:η1:η1 Hapticities and their High Catalytic Activity for Isoprene 1,4‐cis‐Polymerization

Two series of new dinuclear rare‐earth metal alkyl complexes supported by indolyl ligands in novel μ‐η²:η¹:η¹ hapticities are synthesized and characterized. Treatment of [RE(CH₂SiMe₃)₃(thf)₂] with 1 equivalent of 3‐(tBuN?CH)C₈H₅NH ( L₁ ) in THF gives the dinuclear rare‐earth metal alkyl complexes trans‐[(μ‐η²:η¹:η¹‐3‐{tBuNCH(CH₂SiMe₃)}Ind)RE(thf)(CH₂SiMe₃)]₂ (Ind=indolyl, RE=Y, Dy, or Yb) in good yields. In the process, the indole unit of L₁ is deprotonated by the metal alkyl species and the imino C?N group is transferred to the amido group by alkyl CH₂SiMe₃ insertion, affording a new dianionic ligand that bridges two metal alkyl units in μ‐η²:η¹:η¹ bonding modes, forming the dinuclear rare‐earth metal alkyl complexes. When L₁ is reduced to 3‐(tBuNHCH₂)C₈H₅NH ( L₂ ), the reaction of [Yb(CH₂SiMe₃)₃(thf)₂] with 1 equivalent of L₂ in THF, interestingly, generated the trans‐[(μ‐η²:η¹:η¹‐3‐{tBuNCH₂}Ind)Yb(thf)(CH₂SiMe₃)]₂ (major) and cis‐[(μ‐η²:η¹:η¹‐3‐{tBuNCH₂}Ind)Yb(thf)(CH₂SiMe₃)]₂ (minor) complexes. The catalytic activities of these dinuclear rare‐earth metal alkyl complexes for isoprene polymerization were investigated; the yttrium and dysprosium complexes exhibited high catalytic activities and high regio‐ and stereoselectivities for isoprene 1,4‐cis‐polymerization.
