Optisch aktive übergangsmetall-komplexe XX. Optisch aktive cyclopentadienyl-perfluoropropyl-kobalt-komplexe mit zweizähnigen schiff-basen

In the reaction of C₅H₅ Co(C₃F₇)(CO)I with the Schiff base NN′, derived from S-(-)-?-phenylethylamine and pyridine carbaldehyde-2, the salt C₅H₅Co(C₃F₇)NN′]⁺ I^? (Ia,b) is formed, which can be transformed to C₅H₅ Co(C₃F₇)NN′]⁺ PF₆^? (IIa,b). The sodium salt Na⁺ NN″]^? of the Schiff base, derived from S-(-)-α-phenylethylamine and pyrrol carbaldehyde-2, in the reaction with C₅H₅ C0(C₃F₇)(CO)I yields the neutral complex C₅H₅ Co(C₃F₇)NN″ (IIIa,b). The diastereoisomeric pairs IIa,b and IIIa,b are separated by fractional crystallisation and chromatography respectively into the optically pure components which differ in their ¹H NMR spectra. The IR, UV, CD, mass spectra and optical rotations of the new compounds IIa, IIb, IIIa and IIIb are compared.
