The complexes have been characterized through elemental analyses, spectral (u.v., vis., i.r.) properties, magnetic and conductance data. The structures of all those compounds have been proposed.     

Synthesis and reactions of isocyanate and carbamoyl complexes of rhenium

Re(CO)₂(NO)(PPh₃)₂ reacts with aroyl azides RCON₃ (R = C₆H₅, p-CH₃C₆H₄) in benzene to form isocyanate complexes of formula Re(CO)(NO)-(PPh₃)₂(RCONCO) (I). When the reaction is carried out in protic solvents such as ethanol, carbamoyl derivatives of formula Re(NCO)(NO)(PPh₃)₂-(CONHCOR) (II) are obtained, which give Re(NCO)(NO)(PPh₃)₂(CO)(NHCOR) when dissolved in chloroform, a terminal carbonyl ligand being formed from the carbamoyl group.I can be transformed into II by reaction with gaseous HCl, via [Re(CO)-(NO)(PPh₃)₂ {C(OH)=NCOR}]⁺Cl^- followed by anion exchange with NaN₃. II reacts with mineral acids HX (X = Cl, BF₄) to give amide derivatives of formula [Re(NCO)(NO)(PPh₃)₂(CO)(NH₂COR)]⁺ X^- which when X = Cl can be easily transformed into Re(NCO)(NO)(PPh₃)₂(CO)Cl, the amide ligand being removed. Both the protonation reactions of I and II are reversible. IR and ¹H NMR data of the new compounds and the mechanisms of formation of I and II are reported and discussed.

Structure and formation of gaseous [C4H6O]+˙ ions: 1—The enolic ions [CH2C(OH)?CHCH2]+˙ and [CH2CH?CHCH(OH)]+˙ and their relationship with their keto counterparts

The [C₄H₆O]^+˙ ion of structure [CH₂?CHCH?CHOH]^+˙ (a) is generated by loss of C₄H₈ from ionized 6,6-dimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-ol. The heat of formation ΔH_f of [CH₂?CHCH?CHOH]^+˙ was estimated to be 736 kJ mol^?1. The isomeric ion [CH₂?C(OH)CH?CH₂]^+˙ (b) was shown to have ΔH_f, ? 761 kJ mol^?1, 54 kJ mol^?1 less than that of its keto analogue [CH₃COCH?CH₂]^+˙. Ion [CH₂?C(OH)CH?CH₂]^+˙ may be generated by loss of C₂H₄ from ionized hex-1-en-3-one or by loss of C₄H₈ from ionized 4,4-dimethyl-2-cyclohexen-1-ol. The [C₄H₆O]^+˙ ion generated by loss of C₂H₄ from ionized 2-cyclohexen-1-ol was shown to consist of a mixture of the above enol ions by comparing the metastable ion and collisional activation mass spectra of [CH₂?CHCH?CHOH]^+˙ and [CH₂?C(OH)CH?CH₂]^+˙ ions with that of the above daughter ion. It is further concluded that prior to their major fragmentations by loss of CH₃˙ and CO, [CH₂?CHCH?CHOH]⁺˙ and [CH₂?C(OH)CH?CH₂]^+˙ do not rearrange to their keto counterparts. The metastable ion and collisional activation characteristics of the isomeric allenic [C₄H₆O]^+˙ ion [CH₂?C?CHCH₂OH]^+˙ are also reported.     

Exploratory organometal-sulfur chemistry; syntheses and unusual properties of rhenium CH2SR,CHSRR′, and CHSR]+ complexes

The methylidene complex [(η-C₅H₅)Re(NO)(PPh₃)(CH₂)]⁺PF₆^?(I) yields kinetically labile sulfonium salts when treated with CH₃SCH₃, CH₃SCH₂C₆H₅, and (η-C₅H₅)Re(NO)(PPh₃)(CH₂SCH₃) (V);the binuclear adduct formed in the latter case, [(η-C₅H₅)Re(NO)(PPh₃)CH₂]₂S⁺CH₃ (VI), is substantially more stable than the others and undergoes hydride transfer disproportionation to [(η-C₅H₅)Re(NO)(PPh₃)(CHSCH₃)]⁺PF₆^?(VII) and (η-C₅H₅)Re(NO)(PPh₃)(CH₃) (VIII) when heated.     

Rhenium(II) nitrosyl complexes: synthesis,characterization, DFT calculations and DNA nuclease activity

The rhenium(II) dinitrosyl and mononitrosyl complexes, i.e. [Re(NO)₂(CN)₄]·(Phen)₂·2H₂O (1) and PhenH[Re(NO)(CN)₄(H₂O)]·(Phen)·3H₂O (2) have been isolated and characterized. The X-ray crystal structure of 2 reveals that Re(II) is octahedrally coordinated with one nitrosyl, four cyanides, and one water, with one phenanthroline protonated to compensate the charge of the Re(II) center. The crystal structure shows chemically significant non-covalent interactions like hydrogen bonding involving the uncoordinated water and π–π interactions between phenanthrolinium and phen. The structures of both complexes have been optimized by DFT. Absorption and emission spectral studies and viscosity measurements indicate that both 1 and 2 interact with calf thymus DNA through partial intercalation of DNA bases. The intrinsic-binding constants, obtained from UV–vis spectroscopic studies, are 1.2?×?10⁴ and 7.2?×?10⁴?M^?1 for 1 and 2, respectively. Both 1 and 2 are capable of inducing cleavage of plasmid DNA in the presence of H₂O₂ to form the supercoiled form to nicked circular form. The spectroscopic results of DNA binding are supported by molecular docking studies.     

Insertion of Molecular Oxygen in Transition‐Metal Hydride Bonds,Oxygen‐Bond Activation,and Unimolecular Dissociation of Metal Hydroperoxide Intermediates. Short Communication

Thermal activation of molecular oxygen is observed for the late‐transition‐metal cationic complexes [M(H)(OH)]⁺ with M=Fe, Co, and Ni. Most of the reactions proceed via insertion in a metal? hydride bond followed by the dissociation of the resulting metal hydroperoxide intermediate(s) upon losses of O, OH, and H₂O. As indicated by labeling studies, the processes for the Ni complex are very specific such that the O‐atoms of the neutrals expelled originate almost exclusively from the substrate O₂. In comparison to the [M(H)(OH)]⁺ cations, the ion? molecule reactions of the metal hydride systems [MH]⁺ (M=Fe, Co, Ni, Pd, and Pt) with dioxygen are rather inefficient, if they occur at all. However, for the solvated complexes [M(H)(H₂O)]⁺ (M=Fe, Co, Ni), the reaction with O₂ involving O? O bond activation show higher reactivity depending on the transition metal: 60% for the Ni, 16% for the Co, and only 4% for the Fe complex relative to the [Ni(H)(OH)]⁺/O₂ couple.     

Synthesis and Reactivity of Hydrolysis Products of Cyclic Phosphites with Amino Substituents

Abstract

Hydrolysis of several cyclic aminophosphites are discussed and compared with that of cyclic chloro/ phenoxy phosphites. An X-ray structure of a hydrolysis product, (C₆H₁₁NH₃)⁺O^?P(O)(H)(2,2′-OC₆H₄-C₆H₄OH) has been determined.     

Bifunctional Rhenium Complexes for the Catalytic Transfer‐Hydrogenation Reactions of Ketones and Imines

The silyloxycyclopentadienyl hydride complexes [Re(H)(NO)(PR₃)(C₅H₄OSiMe₂tBu)] (R=iPr ( 3 a ), Cy ( 3 b )) were obtained by the reaction of [Re(H)(Br)(NO)(PR₃)₂] (R=iPr, Cy) with Li[C₅H₄OSiMe₂tBu]. The ligand–metal bifunctional rhenium catalysts [Re(H)(NO)(PR₃)(C₅H₄OH)] (R=iPr ( 5 a ), Cy ( 5 b )) were prepared from compounds 3 a and 3 b by silyl deprotection with TBAF and subsequent acidification of the intermediate salts [Re(H)(NO)(PR₃)(C₅H₄O)][NBu₄] (R=iPr ( 4 a ), Cy ( 4 b )) with NH₄Br. In nonpolar solvents, compounds 5 a and 5 b formed an equilibrium with the isomerized trans‐dihydride cyclopentadienone species [Re(H)₂(NO)(PR₃)(C₅H₄O)] ( 6 a,b ). Deuterium‐labeling studies of compounds 5 a and 5 b with D₂ and D₂O showed H/D exchange at the H_Re and H_O positions. Compounds 5 a and 5 b were active catalysts in the transfer hydrogenation reactions of ketones and imines with 2‐propanol as both the solvent and H₂ source. The mechanism of the transfer hydrogenation and isomerization reactions was supported by DFT calculations, which suggested a secondary‐coordination‐sphere mechanism for the transfer hydrogenation of ketones.

Behavior of nitrite forms of nitrosylruthenium on extraction and back extraction of heterometalic Ru/Zn complexes with trioctylphosphine oxide

The state of ruthenium in conjugated phases upon extraction of trans-[Ru(¹⁵NO)(¹⁵NO₂)₄(OH)]^2? complex with tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (TOPO) in the presence of Zn²⁺ and subsequent back extraction with H¹⁵NO₃ and NH₃(concd.) solutions was studied by ¹⁵N NMR. Binuclear complexes [Ru(NO)(NO₂)_5?n (μ-NO₂) _n?1(μ-OH)Zn(TOPO) _n ] and [Ru(NO)(NO₂)_4?n (ONO)(μ-NO₂) _n?1(μ-OH)Zn(TOPO) _n ], where n = 2, 3, are predominant forms in extract. Kinetic restrictions for ruthenium extraction with TOPO solution in hexane and its back extraction with aqueous solutions of nitric acid and ammonia are eliminated in the absence of direct coordination of extractant to ruthenium. fac-Dinitronitrosyl forms [Ru(NO)(H₂O)₃(NO₂)₂]⁺, [Ru(NO)(H₂O)₂(NO₂)₂(NO₃)]⁰ (3 and 6 M HNO₃) and [Ru(NO)(H₂O)(NO₂)₂(NO₃)₂]^? (6 M HNO₃) prevail in nitric acid back extracts. Equilibrium constant at ambient temperature (0.05 ± 0.01) was assessed for the coordination of second nitrate ion to nitrosylruthenium dinitronitrato complex. Complex species [Ru(NO)(NO₂)₄(OH)]^2? and [Ru(NO)(NO₂)₃(ONO)(OH)]^2? prevail in ammonia back extract.     

Potassium hydrogen trans‐glutaconate monohydrate at 295, 245 and 40 K,and its rubidium analogue at 298 K

A centrosymmetric and short O—H?O hydrogen bond was found in isomorphic crystals of potassium hydrogen trans‐glutaconate monohydrate (potassium hydrogen trans‐pent‐2‐ene‐1,5‐dioate, K⁺·C₅H₅O₄^?·H₂O), (I), and rubidium hydrogen trans‐glutaconate monohydrate (rubidium hydrogen trans‐pent‐2‐ene‐1,5‐dioate, Rb⁺·C₅H₅O₄^?·H₂O), (II). The O?O distance at room temperature is 2.444 (3) Å in (I), and 2.417 (4) Å in (II). The O?O distance for (I) showed no significant decrease at low temperatures.     

Synthesis,crystal structure and properties of a novel copper(II) complex with tripod ligand tris(1H-benzimidazol- 2-ylmethyl)amine

A five-coordinate copper complex with the tripod ligand tris(1H-benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine (ntb), of composition [Cu(ntb)(H₂O)] (C1O₄)₂?·?C₅H₄N₂O₃?·?H₂O (C₅H₄N₂O₃?=?4-nitropyridine-N-oxide), was synthesized and characterized by means of elemental analyses, electrical conductivities, thermal analyses, IR, and U.V. The crystal structure of the copper complex has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and shows that the Cu^II is bonded to a tris(1H-benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amine (ntb) ligand and a water molecule through four N atoms and one O atom, giving a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal coordination geometry with approximate C ₃ molecular symmetry. Cyclic voltammograms of the copper complex indicate a quasi-reversible Cu⁺²/Cu⁺ couple. Electron spin resonance data confirm a trigonal-bipyramidal structure and with g ₂?<?g _ζ and a very small value of A ₂ (20?×?10^?4?cm^?1).

The suggested radical structure was confirmed by ¹⁵N-labeling. The reaction of triazenols 1 with PbO₂ proceeded under N₂ elimination, in which case nitroxides R¹? C₆H₄? N(R₂)? O^?( 2 ) were observed as the final radical products. The intermediate R¹? C₆H radicals were identified by spin-trapping.

Palladacyclic compounds [Pd(C₆H₄(C₆H₅C?O)C?N? R)(N? N)] [X] (R = Et, ⁱPr, 2,6‐ⁱPr₂C₆H₃; N? N = bpy = 2,2′‐bipyridine, or 1,4‐(o,o′‐dialkylaryl)‐1,4‐diazabuta‐1,3‐dienes; [X]^? = [BF₄]^? or [PF₆]^?) were synthesized from the dimers [{Pd(C₆H₄(C₆H₅C?O)C?N? R)(μ‐Cl)}₂] and N? N ligands. Their interionic structure in CD₂Cl₂ was determined by means of ¹⁹F,¹H‐HOESY experiments and compared with that in the solid state derived from X‐ray single‐crystal studies. [Pd(C₆H₄(C₆H₅C?O)C?N? R)(N? N)] [X] complexes were found to copolymerize CO and p‐methylstyrene affording syndiotactic or isotactic copolymers when bpy or 1,4‐(o,o′‐dimethylaryl)‐1,4‐diazabuta‐1,3‐dienes were used, respectively. The reactions with CO and p‐methylstyrene of the bpy derivatives were investigated. Two intermediates derived from a single and a double insertion of CO into the Pd? C bonds were isolated and completely characterized in solution.
