Darstellung und Molekülstrukturen von oligofunktionalen Dirheniumcarbonylderivaten aus Dirheniumnonacarbonylphosphan

Preparation and Molecular Structures of Oligofunctional Dirhenium Carbonyl Derivatives from Dirhenium Nonacarbonylphosphane Starting with dirheniumdecacarbonyl, one CO-Ligand was eliminated oxidatively and substituted by the labile acetonitrile ligand. As an intermediate eq-Re₂(CO)₉NCCH₃ was received. The reaction of this labilised carbonyl with tris(trimethylsilyl)phosphine and subsequent methanolysis gave ax-Re₂(CO)₉PH₃, which was isolated and characterized for the first time. Photochemical and thermal reaction of ax-Re₂(CO)₉PH₃ led to the new bi- and trinuclear complexes Re₂(μ-H)(μ₃-PHRe(CO)₅)(CO)₈, Re₂(μ-PH₂)₂(CO)₈ and Re₂(μ-H) · (μ-PH₂)(CO)₈, which were characterized by IR-, ¹H- and ³¹P-NMR spectroscopy. The structures of ax-Re₂(CO)₉PH₃, Re₂(μ-H)(μ₃-PHRe(CO)₅)(CO)₈ and Re₂(μ-PH₂)₂(CO)₈ were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis. ax-Re₂(CO)₉PH₃ has a very short Re? P bond length of 228(2) pm.
