Die photochemische synthese von μ-(1-2-η:2-3-η-allen)-octacarbonyldimangan(0)

Novel dihydroiridium(III) complexes containing mono- and bi-dentate sulfur ligands have been isolated. The cationic complexes [Ir(COD)L₂]ClO₄ (COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene, L = tetrahydrothiophene (tht) or trimethylene sulfide (tms); L₂ = (CH₃S)₂(CH₂)₃ (dth)), [Ir(COD)(L-L)]₂(ClO₄)₂ (L-L = 1,4-dithiacyclohexane (dt) or (t-BuS)₂(CH₂)₂ (tmdto)) and [Ir(CO)₂(tmdto)]₂-(ClO₄)₂ react with H₂ to give the corresponding iridium(III) dihydrides: [IrH₂COD)L₂]ClO₄ (Ia: L = tht, Ib: L = tms, Ic: L₂ = dth), [IrH₂(COD)-(L-L)]₂(ClO₄)₂ (IIa: L-L = tmdto, IIb: L-L = dt) and [IrH₂(CO)₂(tmdto)]₂-(ClO₄)₂ (III). The ¹H NMR chemical shifts and ν(IrH) data are discussed.     

Thia- und Selena-arachno-undecaboran 6,7-μ-(CH3E)B10H13 Kristallstruktur von arachno-6,7-μ-(CH3Se)B10H13 Theoretische Untersuchungen der Molekülstrukturen und 11B-NMR-Verschiebungen von arachno-6,7-μ-(CH3E)B10H13

Thia- and Selena-arachno-undecaborane 6,7-μ-(CH₃E)B₁₀H₁₃. Crystal Structure of arachno-6,7-μ-(CH₃Se)B₁₀H₁₃. Theoretical Investigations of the Molecular Structures and ¹¹B NMR Shifts of arachno-6,7-μ-(CH₃E)B₁₀H₁₃ The reaction of B₁₀H₁₄ with (CH₃)₂S yields with loss of H₂ the base adduct 6,9-[(CH₃)₂S]₂B₁₀H₁₂. Although an analogous reaction between B₁₀H₁₄ with disulfanes or diselenanes was expected to produce 6,9 bridged dichalcogen derivatives, (CH₃)₂S₂ failed to react even under reflux conditions. Trisulfane (CH₃)₂S₃ does react, but the pathway is different and leads to (CH₃S)B₁₀H₁₃ 2 without loss of H₂. Unlike of (CH₃)₂S₂, (CH₃)₂Se₂ yields (CH₃Se)B₁₀H₁₃, 3 . Both 2 and 3 are formed by substitution of a bridging hydrogen and could be obtained in pure form and characterized ¹¹B NMR spectroscopically. A single crystal X-ray structure analysis also was performed on 3 (space group P2₁/c). The molecular structures of 2 and 3 were optimized at the MP2 level and ¹¹B NMR shifts were computed at the IGLO-SCF, GIAO-SCF and GIAO-B3LYP levels of theory.     

Synthesis of bimetallic[Sn,A]-μ-oxoisopropoxyacetate and -μ-oxoisopropoxide and their acetylacetone and benzoylacetone derivatives

Bimetallic [Sn^IV,Al^III-μ-oxoisopropoxyacetate (Bu₂Sn(OAc)OAl(OⁱPr)₂] and bimetallic [Sn^IV,Al^III]-μ- oxoisopropoxide [Bu₂SnO₂Al₂(OⁱPr)₄] have been synthesized by thermal condensation of dibutyltin diacetate with aluminium isopropoxide in 1:1 and 1:2 molar ratio, respectively. Reactions of these compounds with acetylacetone and benzoylacetone in these molar ratios yielded compounds of the type [Bu₂Sn(OAc)OAl(OⁱPr)L], [Bu₂Sn(OAc)OAlL₂], [Bu₂SnO₂Al₂(OⁱPr)₃L] and [Bu₂SnO ₂Al₂(OⁱPr)₂L₂] (where L = acetylacetonate or benzoylacetonate anion). The μ-oxo compounds and their derivatives have been characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques (IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, ²⁷Al NMR and ¹¹⁹Sn NMR).
