Syntheses and Reactions of Dimolybdenum Alkyne Compounds Containing Functionally Substituted Ligands. The Crystal Structure of [Co2Mo2(μ4-CHCH)(μ-CO)4(CO)4-(η5-C5H4C(O)Me)2]

Abstract

Three dimolybdenum alkyne complexes containing functionally substituted ligands [Mo₂(μ-CHCH)(CO)₄(η⁵?C₅H₄C(O)R)₂] [R ? OEt, (1a); R ? Me, (1b); R ? Ph, (1c)] were synthesized by reactions of acetylene with in situ generated metal-metal triply bonded complexes [Mo(CO)₂(η⁵?C₅H₄C(O)R)]₂ (R ? OEt, Me, Ph). Further reaction of (1a), (1b) or (1c) with Co₂(CO)₈ in refluxing toluene gave another three new butterfly compounds [Co₂Mo₂-(μ₄-CHCH)(μ-CO)₄(CO)₄(η⁵-C₅H₄C(O)R)₂] [R ? OEt, (2a); R ? Me, (2b); R ? Ph, (2c)]. The resulting compounds were characterized by elemental analyses, IR, ¹H NMR and MS. The crystal structure of (2b) was determined by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The results indicate that the existence of functional groups on the cyclopentadienyl ring has an influence on the reactivity of this type of complex.     

Studies of metal exchange reactions: the synthesis and structures of heteronuclear metal clusters containing the indenyl ligand (μ3-CR)Co2M(CO)8(η- Ind)(R=H,CH3,C6H5,COOC2H5; M=Mo,W)

The novel tetrahedral clusters (μ₃-CR)Co₂M(CO)₈(η⁵-Ind) (M=Mo,W; R=H, CH₃, C₆H₅, COOC₂H₅) 5-12 containing the indenyl ligand were isolated from reactions of tricobalt clusters (μ₃-CR)Co₃(CO)₉ (R=H, CH₃, C₆H₅, COOC₂H₅) and K(η⁵-Ind)M(CO)₃ (M=Mo,W) under mild conditions. The cluster complex (μ₃-CC₆H₅)CoMo₂(CO)₇(η⁵-Ind)(η⁵-Cp (Cp*=C₅H₄C(O)CH₃) 16 was obtained via the stepwise metal exchange reaction of complex (μ₃-CC₆H₅)Co₂Mo(CO)₈(η⁵-Ind) 9 with Na(η⁵-CpMo(CO)₃, but the reaction of (μ₃-CC₆H₅)Co₂Mo(CO)₈(η⁵-Cp*) 15 with K(η⁵-Ind)Mo(CO)₃ yielded only 9. The crystal structures of compounds 7, 9 and 13 were established by single crystal X-ray diffraction methods and show structural evidence for “slippage” of the indenyl ring.

Abstract

A new functionally substituted cyclopentadienyl salt p-MeO₂CC₆H₄COC₅H₄Na (1) was prepared from cyclopentadienylsodium and dimethyl terephthalate in THF, and which might be utilized to synthesize a series of novel transition metal complexes containing difunctional group-substituted cyclopentadienyl ligands; 1 reacted with M(CO)₆(M = Mo, W) followed by treatment with PBr₃ or I₂ to give mononuclear organomolybdenum (or tungsten) halides η⁵-p-MeO₂CC₆H₄COC₅H₄M(CO)3X(2, M = Mo, X = Br; 3, M = W, X = Br; 4, M = Mo, X = I; 5, M = W, X = I), whereas reaction of 1 with W(CO)₆ and successive treatment with selenium powder and MeI or PhCH₂Cl afforded mononuclear organotungsten selenolate complexes η⁵-p-MeO₂CC₆H₄COC₅H₄W (CO)₃SeMe (6) and η⁵-p-MeO₂CC₆H₄COC₅H₄W(CO)₃SeCH₂Ph (7). In addition, 1 reacted with M(CO)₆(M = Mo, W) followed by treatment with FeCo₂(CO)₉(μ₃-S) to produce the corresponding polynuclear complexes η⁵-p-MeO₂CC₆H₄COC₅H₄MFeCo(CO)₈(μ₃?S) (8, M = Mo; 9, M = W), which could be converted with NaBH₄ into hydroxyl derivatives η⁵-p-MeO₂CC₆H₄CH(OH)C₅H₄MFeCo(CO)₈(μ₃?S) (10, M = Mo; 11, M = W). All the new transition metal complexes 2–11 have been fully characterized by elemental analysis, IR and ¹H NMR spectroscopy, as well as for 4 by an X-ray diffraction analysis.     

PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF CLUSTER COMPLEXES CONTAINING ONE OR TWO C2M2 (M = Co,Mo) CORES

Abstract

The reaction of dipropargylether with Mo₂(C₅H₄R)₂(CO)₄ (R = H, COOCH₂CH₃), prepared by refiuxing a toluene solution of Mo₂(C₅H₄R)₂(CO)₆ (R = H, COOCH₂CH₃), gave dinuclear cluster complexes (HC₂CH₂OCH₂C₂H-μ)[Mo₂(C₅H₄R)₂(CO)₄] [(1): R = H, (2): R = COOCH₂-CH₃] and tetranuclear cluster complexes [Mo₂(C₅H₄R)₂(CO)₄](μ-HC₂CH₂OCH₂C₂H-μ) [Mo₂(C₅H₄R)₂(CO)₄] [(3): R = H, (4): R = COOCH₂CH₃], respectively. When (1) or (2) was treated with an equimolar amount of octacarbonyldicobalt, the new novel tetranuclear cluster complexes [Co₂CO)₆](μ-HC₂CH₂OCH₂C₂H-μ)(Mo₂(C₅H₄R)₂(CO)₄] [(5): R = H, (6): R = COOCH₂CH₃] were obtained. These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR and ¹H NMR spectra. The molecular structure of complex (3 1/2CH₂C1₂) was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods.     

New Bimetallics of Mo and W with Metallocene,Metal Carbonyl and Bridging PPh2 or ‘Cp’PPh2 Units

Ring substituted (R=^tBu, SiMe₃) metallocene dichlorides undergo a nucleophilic substitution on one of the two rings upon the action of LiPPh₂M'(CO)_x salts with the formation of chloro-hydrido complexes [C₅H₃(R)PPh₂M'(CO)_x](C₅H₄R)M(H)Cl. Their UV irradiation leads to the chloro-bridged M(μ-Cl)M' separable diastereoisomers. Use of the ansa-metal-locene dichlorides [Me₂X(C₅H₄)₂MCl₂] (X=Si or C) allowed the access to the new bridging system [M(μ-PPh₂, μ-Cl)M′] (M=Mo, W ; M'=W).     

Synthesis and structure of an open-type trinuclear molybdenum cluster compound[Mo_3(μ_3-S)(μ-S)_2-(μ-OAc)(S_2CNC_4H_8)_3(O)_2]·0.5CH_2Cl_2·2H_2O

The title compound was prepared by the reaction of Mo_3S_4(dtp)_4(H_2O)[ctp=S_2P(OEt)_2]with NaOAc·3H_2O and C_4H_8NCS_2NH_4.Crystallographic data:[Mo_3(μ_3-S)(μ-S)_2(μ-OAc)-(S_2CNC_4H_8)_3(O)_2]·0.5CH_2CI_2·2H_2O,Mr=980.18,triclinic,space group P,α=12.360(3),b=16.653(6),c=9.206(2)A,α=101.97(2),β=108.32(2),γ=86.14(3)°.V=1759.6(9)A~3,Z=2,Dc=1.85 g/cm~3,F(000)=962,μ(Mo K_α)=16.53 cm~(-1).Final R=0.044 for 4301 reflections with I≥3σ(I).This compoundmay be regarded as a mixed-valent trinuclear molybdenum cluster{Mo_2(V)Mo(Ⅳ)(μ_3-S)(μ-S)_2-(μ-OAc)(S_2CNC_4H_8)_3(O)_2}.The Mo-Mo distances are 2.783(1),2.833(1)and 3.374(2)A in the Mo_3non-equilateral triangle and there exist only two Mo-Mo bonds.The cluster was obtained by oxi-dation and ligand substitution of{Mo_3(μ_3-S)(μ-S)_3[μ-S_2P(OEt_2)][S_2P(OEt)_2]_3(H_2O)}.     

Reactions of Cyclohexyl Isocyanide with η5‐Substituted Cyclo‐pentadienyl MoMo Triply Bonded Complexes. Crystal Structure of [Mo(CO)2(η5‐C5H4CO2CH3)]2(μ‐η2‐CNC6H11)

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.     

Conjugate additions of functionalized carbanions to the vinylidene groups of [M(CO)4{(Ph2P)2CCH2}] (M = W,Mo or Cr)

Treatment of complexes of the type [M(CO)₄{(Ph₂P)₂CCH₂}] (M = W, Mo or Cr) with functionalized lithium reagents, LiR, followed by hydrolysis gives complexes of the type [M(CO)₄{PH₂P)₂CHCH₂R}] in high yields; R = C₆H₄Me-4, C₆H₄OMe-2, C₆H₃(OMe)₂-2,6, C₆H₄OH-2, C₆H₄(COOH)-2, CH₂COPh or CH₂COMe. IR, and ³¹P and ¹H NMR data are given.     

Fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry of some alkoxv- and chloro-silanes

The positive and negative FAB mass spectra of a series of alkoxy- and chloro-silanes X_m(CH₃)₃-_mSi(CH₂)_nR [m = 1 or 3, n = 3, 10 or 17, X = Cl or OMe or OEt, R = Me, NH₂, glycidoxy, COOMe, NHCO(CH₂)₇COOMe or NHCO(CH₂)₁₀CH₂OAc] were recorded in NBA and NPOE matrices. The chlorosilanes underwent rapid hydrolysis into silanols which condense to form siloxanes, the process being complete in NBA and partial in NPOE, yielding siloxane-based fragment ions in the positive spectra and silyloxyanions in the negative spectra. The alkoxysilanes were more resistant to hydrolysis, affording abundant [MH – HX]⁺ ions (X = OMe or OEt) in their positive FAB spectra and moderate to high intensity [M – H]^? ions in the negative mode, the latter undergoing characteristic sequential loss of C₂H₄, EtOH and C₂H₄. Significant variations were observed in the positive spectra of all the silanes with change of matrix.     

Normal coordinate analysis of M-Si 2H 5-moieties in transition metal complexes and comparison to Br-Si 2H 5

In order to examine the influence of the transition metal on the metal-disilanyl-fragment and especially the M-Si and Si-Si-bond polarized Raman spectra of the complexes (C₅R₅)(CO)₂Fe-Si₂H₅ {R=H (1a); R=Me (1b)} and (C₅R₅)(CO)₂(PMe₃)M-Si₂H₅ {R=Me, M=Mo (2); R=H, M=W (3)} have been recorded. The spectral data have been evaluated and interpreted on the basis of a normal coordinate analysis of the M-SiH₂-Si-fragment including Br-Si₂H₅ (4) and comparison with examinations of the M-SiH₃-fragment.     

Preparation and reactions of tetrahedrane-type clusters containing a SCoFeM (M=Mo or W) core. The single crystal X-ray structure of the cluster (μ3-S)CoFeMo(CO)8[η5-C5H4C(O)CH2CH2CO2Me]

Treatment of the monoanions {M(CO)₃[η⁵-C₅H₄C(O)CH₂CH₂CO₂Me]}⁻ with FeCo₂(CO)₉(μ₃-S) in refluxing THF gave the novel cluster complexes (μ₃-S)CoFeM(CO)₈[η⁵-C₅H₄C(O)CH₂CH₂CO₂Me] (M=Mo, 1; M=W, 2). Reactions of the cluster (μ₃-S)CoFeMo(CO)₈[η⁵-C₅H₄C(O)Me] (3) with amine derivatives 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine, thiosemicarbazide, (−)-5-(α-phenyl)semioxamazide and l-(+)-menthydrazide respectively at room temperature yielded four new hydrazone cluster complexes (μ₃-S)CoFeMo(CO)₈[η⁵-C₅H₄C(NR)Me] [4–7, R=NHC₆H₃-2,4-(NO₂)₂, NHC(S)NH₂, NHC(O)C(O)NHCH(Me)(C₆H₅) and NHCO₂(menthyl)]. However, cluster 1 only reacted with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine to give the cluster (μ₃-S)CoFeMo(CO)₈[η⁵-C₅H₄C(NR)Me] [8, R=NHC₆H₃-2,4-(NO₂)₂] under the same conditions. Although two kinds of optically active groups have been attached to the racemic cluster, the mixture of diastereoisomers produced cannot be separated chromatographically. The ¹³C NMR showed the presence of the diastereoisomers of clusters 5 and 6. Cluster 1 has been solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.     

Reaktionen an komplexgebundenen liganden: XXIX. Ein einfacher weg zu azomethin-komplexen: Kondensation von chrom—, molybdän—, wolfram—, mangan— und eisen—ammoniak-komplexen und ketonen zu ketimin-komplexen

Treatment of transition-metal—ammonia complexes with ketones yields complexes with RR′CNH ligands. Of particular interest is the stabilization of dialkylketimines such as e.g. (CH₃)₂CNH and C₆H₁₀NH in [M(CO)₅{NHC(CH₃)₂}] or [M(CO)₅ {NHC₆H₁₀}] (M = Cr, Mo, W). The principle of synthesis may be applied to a wide range of different metals and types of complexes, as can be shown by the synthesis of [C₅H₅Mn(CO)₂ {NHC(CH₃)₂}], [C₅H₅Fe(CO)₂{NHC(CH₃)₂}]PF₆, [M(CO)₄L₂] (M = Cr, Mo, W; L = (CH₃)₂CNH, C₆H₁₀NH) and [W(CO)₃(diphos){NHC(CH₃)}₂]. Treatment of [Cr(CO)₅NH₃] with urotropine gives [Cr(CO)₅ {N₄(CH₂)₆}] which is also obtained from [Cr(CO)₅THF] and urotropine. The methods of preparation, reactions and spectroscopic properties of the complexes are reported.     

Übergangsmetall-substituierte vb elementsysteme : VIII. Darstellung und komplexchemisches verhalten von cyclopentadienyl(tricarbonyl)viametall-dimethylstibinen

Starting with the cyclopentadienyl(carbonyl)metal anions [π-C₅H₅(CO)₃M]^? (M = Cr, Mo, W) and (CH₃)₂SbBr, transition metal-substituted stibines of the form π-C₅H₅(CO)₃MSb(CH₃)₂ are obtained. The nucleophilic character of the VB element primarily determines the reactivity of these species, and shows itself in alkyl halide quarternization (a) or ligand exchange on activated metal carbonyl complexes (b). (a) yields the trialkylstibine-substituted metal cations [π-C₅H₅-(CO)₃MSb(CH₃)₂R]X (R = CH₃, CH₂CH=CH₂, CH₂C₆H₅; X = Br, J), (b) leads to the formation of the metal carbonyl derivatives LM(CO)₅, L₂M(CO)₄ (M = Cr, Mo, W), LNi(CO)₃ and LFe(CO)₄ [L = (CH₃)₂SbM(CO)₃-π-C₅H₅] which are the first (CH₃)₂Sb-bridged polynuclear complexes. Phosphorus ylides cause heterolytic cleavage of the antimonytransition metal bond. Transfer of the (CH₃)₂Sb-group to the ylidic carbanion occurs via substitution/transylidation. All new compounds have been fully characterized by means of ¹H NMR, IR and mass spectroscopy

The Reactions of Two New Alkoxy-silyl Functionalized Alkynes with M<Subscript>3</Subscript>(CO)<Subscript>12</Subscript> {M = Fe,Ru} and Co<Subscript>2</Subscript>(CO)<Subscript>8</Subscript>. Spectroscopic Identification of the Products

The new alkoxysilyl-functionalized alkynes [HC≡CCH₂N(H)C(=O)N(H)(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃] and [HC≡C(C₆H₄)–N(H)C(=O)N(H)(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃] have been synthesized using literature methods. These have been reacted with Fe₃(CO)₁₂, Ru₃(CO)₁₂ and Co₂(CO)₈. With the iron carbonyl only decomposition was observed: with Ru₃(CO)₁₂ splitting of the alkynes into their parent components and formation of the complexes (μ-H)Ru₃(CO)₉[HC=N(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃], (μ-H)Ru₃(CO)₉[C–C(C₆H₄)NH₂] and (μ-H)₂Ru₃(CO)₉[HC–CCH₃] occurred. Finally, with Co₂(CO)₈ formation of complexes Co₂(CO)₆(HC₂R) R=(C₆H₄)NH₂, CH₂NH(CO)NH(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃, (C₆H₄)NH(CO)NH(CH₂)₃Si(OEt)₃ containing the intact alkynes could be obtained.     

The preparation,characterisation and some reactions of Os3(CO)9(μ2-H)(μ3-SR) (R  Me or Et)

The complex Os₃(CO)₉(μ₂-H)₂(μ₃-S) reacts with KOH/MeOH to produce the anionic complex [Os₃(CO)₉(μ₂-H)(μ₃-S)^?, which reacts in turn with RO⁺ (R = Me, Et) to form HOs₃(CO)₉SR. This complex is especially reactive towards ligands L (L = C₂H₄, CO, PR₃ and MeCN) to generate complexes of the type Os₃(CO)₉(μ₂-H)(μ₂-SR)(L). At 125°C the complex Os₃(CO)₉(μ₂-H)(μ₂-SR)(C₂H₄) (in the presence of C₂H₄) ejects RH and CO to form Os₃(CO)₈(μ₂-H)?(μ₃-S)(CHCH₂). The structures of the new complexes are described and the probable reaction pathways discussed.     

A novel synthesis of carbene complexes of manganese and molybdenum containing the trichlorogermyl group

A number of carbene complexes of formulas Cl₃GeMn(CO)₄C(OR′)R and C₅H₅Mo(CO)₂(GeCl₃)C(OR′)CH₃ (R = CH₃, C₆H₅; R′ = CH₃, C₂H₅) have been prepared by the reaction of [N(C₂H₅)₄]GeCl₃ with CH₃Mn(CO)₅, C₆H₅Mn(CO)₅, or C₅H₅Mo(CO)₃CH₃ followed by alkylation of the resulting trichlorogermylacylcarbonylmetallate ion. The compound C₅H₅Mo(CO)₂(GeCl₃)$\text{COCH}{}_2\text{CH}{}_2\text{C}$H₂ has been prepared directly by the reaction of [N(C₂H₅)₄]GeCl₃ with C₅H₅Mo(CO)₃(CH₂)₃Br.     

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.     

Highly reduced organometallics: XI. Formal derivatives of the tricarbonylmetallates (6-) of chromium,molybdenum and tungsten

Reduction of W(CO)₃(PMTA) (PMTA = 1,1,4,7,7-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine) by six equivalents of potassium metal in liquid ammonia provides an incompletely characterized highly reduced carbonyltungstate ion which reacts with several electrophiles to provide derivatives containing only tungsten tricarbonyl units. These include W(CO)₃(NH₃)₃, [W₃(CO)₉(μ-OC₂H₅)(μ₃-OC₂H₅)₂]^3-, HW(CO)₃(SnPh₃)₃^2- and the unusual [(Ph₃Sn)₂{(Ph₂Sn)₂OEt}W(CO)₃]^?. The latter compound results from an unprecedented phenyl-tin cleavage in the reaction of triphenyltin chloride and the highly reduced carbonyltungstate ion. Triphenyltin derivatives of the unknown M(CO)₃^6- (M = Cr, Mo and W) have also been prepared by reacting M(CO)₃(SnPh₃)₃^3- with Brønsted acids and Ph₃SnCl. From these reactions the previously unknown HM(CO)₃(SnPh₃)₃^2- (M = Cr, Mo and W) and M(CO)₃(Ph₃Sn)₄^2- (M = Mo and W) have been isolated and characterized. The latter are the first compounds containing more than three triphenyltin units attached to one transition metal.

The tendency observed for the formation of the binuclear complexes [π-C₅H₅(CO)₂MER₂]₂ and [π-C₅H₅(CO)₂ME′R]₂, respectively, in following reactions of I and II increases in the series W ? Mo ≤ Cr and SeCF₃ < As(CF₃)₂ < SCF₃ ≈ P(CF₃)₂ < SeMe < AsMe₂ ?; PMe₂ ≈ SMe.
