Die thermische reaktion von C5H5(CO)2FeNa mit benzimidchloriden C6H5(Cl)CNR

η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)₂FeNa reacts with the benzimide chlorides C₆H₅(Cl)CNR (R  CH(CH₃)₂, C₆H₅) in boiling THF to give the η¹-iminoacyl complexes η⁵-C₅H₅ (CO)₂Fe[η¹-C(C₆H₅)NR]. Alternatively, the new Fe complexes [η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)Fe$\text{C(C}{}_6\text{H}{}_5\text{)N(CH}{}_3\text{)C(C}{}_6\text{H}{}_5\text{)N}$CH₃PF₆ (IV) and [η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)₂FeC(C₆H₅)N(CH₃)C(C₆H₅)NCH₃]PF₆ (V) are formed under the same conditions, if R  CH₃. Hudrolysis of the CN single bond of the ligand in V, not stabilized by a chelate effects as in IV, results in the formation of [η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)₂FeC(C₆H₅)NHCH₃]PF₆ (VII). Reaction of η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)₂ with N-benyzylbenzimido chloride yields η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)₂FeCH₂C₆H₅ as the only isolated product.     

Optisch aktive übergangsmetall-komplexe : VIII. (+)- und (−)-C5H5Fe(CO)[CN-CH(CH3)(C6H5]J

The interaction of C₅H₅Fe(CO)₂I with (+)-α-methylbenzyl isocyanide yields the diastereoisomeric pair (+)- and (−)-C₅H₅Fe(CO)[CN-CH(CH₃)- (C₆H₅)]I. The two diastereoisomers can be separated on the basis of their different solubilities by repeated precipitation from methylene chloride/pentane. Excluding light the complexes are configurationally stable in the solid state as well as in solution. In daylight, however, the optical rotations decrease rapidly (photoracemisation). The ORD and CD spectra (+)- and (−)-C₅H₅Fe(CO)[CN-CH(CH₃)(C₆H₅)]I show pronounced Cotton effects.     

Preparation and configurational isomerism of ditertiary stibine sulfides, (C6H5)(CH3)(S)SbCH2Sb(CH3)(C6H5) and [(C6H5)(CH3)(S)Sb]2(CH2)3

Asymmetric ditertiary stibine sulfides (C₆H₅)(CH₃)(S)SbCH₂Sb(CH₃)(C₆H₅) and [(C₆H₅)(CH₃)(S)Sb]₂(CH₂)₃ have been prepared. It was found that they exist as only one of two possible diastereomers in the crystalline state. However, isomerization to the other form takes place in solution, resulting in an equilibrium mixture. A possibility of configurational lability of tertiary stibine sulfide was suggested for the first time.     

Interaction of half-sandwich alkylmolybdenum(III) complexes with B(C6F5)3. The X-ray structure of [CpMo(η-C4H6)(μ-Cl)(μ-CH2)(O)MoCp][CH3B(C6F5)3]

The reactions of the half-sandwich molybdenum(III) complexes CpMo(η⁴-C₄H₄R₂)(CH₃)₂, where Cp=η⁵-C₅H₅ and R=H or CH₃, with equimolar amounts of B(C₆F₅)₃ have been investigated in toluene. EPR monitoring shows the formation of an addition product which does not readily react with Lewis bases such as ethylene, pyridine, or PMe₃. The analysis of the EPR properties and the X-ray structure of a decomposition product obtained from dichloromethane, [CpMo(η⁴-C₄H₆)(μ-Cl)(μ-CH₂)(O)MoCp][CH₃B(C₆F₅)₃], indicate that the borane attack has occurred at the methyl position.

The synthesis of the corresponding rhodium complexes C₅H₅Rh(η²-CH₃CHS)P(i-Pr)₃ (VI) and C₅H₅Rh(η²-CH₃CHSe)P(i-Pr)₃ (VII) has been achieved through hydrogenation of C₅H₅Rh(η²-EC=CH₂)P(i-Pr)₃ (E = S, Se), using RhCl(PPh₃)₃ as a catalyst. The crystal structure of VII has been determined.

The complexes C₅H₅CuPR₃ (R = Me, Prⁱ), C₅H₅AuPR₃ (R = Me, Prⁱ), C₅Me₅CuPR₃ (R = Me, Prⁱ, Ph) and C₅Me₅AuPR₃ (R = Prⁱ, Ph) are prepared from [ClCuPR₃]_n or ClAuPR₃ and LiC₅H₅ (TlC₅H₅) or LiC₅Me₅, respectively. According to the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra, the cyclopentadienyl and pentamethylcyclopentadienylgold compounds are fluxional in solution. The X-ray crystal structure of C₅H₅AuPPr₃ⁱ has been determined at ?120°C. The gold atom is in a linear arrangement (PAuC(1) = 177.0(2)°) and primarily σ-bonded to the cyclopentadienyl ring which shows a weak “slip distortion” toward a η³-mode of coordination. The complexes C₅R′₅AuPR₃ (R′ = H, Me) and C₅Me₅CuPPr₃ⁱ react with 1-alkynes such as C₂H₂, HC₂Ph and HC₂CO₂Me to form alkinylgold and copper compounds R″C₂MPR₃. They have been characterized by IR, UV and NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P) spectroscopy.     

Perfluororganozink-verbindungen: darstellung und eigenschaften von (Rf)2Zn-komplexen (Rf = CF3, C2F5, C3F7, C6F5) [1]

A new method for the preparation of bis(perfluoroorgano) zinc compounds is described: CF₃I and C₆F₅I react with dialkylzinc in the presence of a Lewis base quantitatively to give (CF₃)₂Zn and (C₆F₅)₂Zn complexes, while the analogous reactions with C₂F₅I and iC₃F₇I do not yield the pure compounds. ¹H, ¹⁹F n.m.r, i.r. and Raman spectra are presented.     

Synthesis and molecular structures of heptafluoropropylated fullerenes: C70(n-C3F7)8, C70(n-C3F7)6O, and C70(C3F7)4

Ampoule reactions of C₇₀ with n- and i-C₃F₇I were carried out at 250-310 °C. Two step HPLC separations allowed the isolation of several C₇₀(n-C₃F₇)_4-8 and C₇₀(i-C₃F₇)₄ compounds. Crystal and molecular structures of C₇₀(n-C₃F₇)₈-V, C₇₀(n-C₃F₇)₆O, C₇₀(n-C₃F₇)₄, and three isomers of C₇₀(i-C₃F₇)₄ have been determined by X-ray crystallography using synchrotron radiation. Molecular structures of the new compounds were compared with the known examples and discussed in terms of addition patterns and relative energies of their formation.     

Über die Natur der Übergangsmetall-Kohlenstoff-σ-Bindung. VIII. Über die Reaktion von 3d-Metallhalogeniden mit Thioanisolyllithium

On the Nature of the Transition Metal Carbon-σ-Bond. VIII. Reaction of 3d-Metal Halides with Thioanisolyl Lithium Reaction of CoBr₂ · 2 THF with PhSCH₂Li/N(CH₂CH₂)₃N (TED) results in the formation of the thiophenolato complex LiCo(SPh)₃ · TED · 3.5 THF (I) with ethylene, propylene, and small amounts of cyclopropane being liberated. The constitution of I follows from the results of the elemental analysis, the effective magnetic moment (μ_eff. = 4.41 B.M.), and the reaction with acids and HgCl₂ to give PhSH and PhSHgCl, respectively. I could also be isolated by comparison synthesis from CoBr₂ · 2 THF and LiSPh/TED. Other 3d-metal halides MX_n · xTHF (M = Ti, V, Mn, Fe, Ni; X = Cl, Br) also react very easily with thioanisolyl lithium to form thiophenolato compounds.     

Preparative use of electrode catalyzed substitution reactions; synthesis of Fe(CO)(PPh3)(η5-C5H5)COCH3

It is shown that electrode catalysis of substitution reactions can operate even for systems with rather slow chemical steps and, furthermore, for those which are electrochemically irreversible. A procedure is described for synthesis of Fe(CO)(PPh₃)(η⁵-C₅H₅)COCH₃ from Fe(CO)₂(η⁵-C₅H₅)CH₃ and triphenylphosphine. A simplified mechanism for the catalytic chain, is given and discussed in terms of the structure of the reacting species.     

Synthesis and reactivity of [N(C6H4Br)3][B(C6F5)4]: the X-ray crystal structure of [Fe(C5H5)2][B(C6F5)4]

A new chemical oxidant [N(4-C₆H₄Br)₃][B(C₆F₅)₄], was prepared and used to synthesize [Fe(C₅H₅)₂][B(C₆F₅)₄]. The crystal structure of [Fe(C₅H₅)₂][B(C₆F₅)₄] was determined.     

Crystal structures of [Rh(η-C5H5)(C3S5)] and [Rh(η-C5Me5)(C3S5)]2 and properties of their oxidized species

[Rh(η⁵-C₅H₅)(C₃S₅)] and [Rh(η⁵-C₅Me₅)(C₃S₅)]₂ [C₃S₅²⁻=4,5-disulfanyl-1,3-dithiole-2-thionate(2-)] were prepared by reactions of [NMe₄]₂[C₃S₅] with [Rh(η⁵-C₅H₅)Cl₂]₂ and [Rh(η⁵-C₅Me₅)Cl₂]₂, respectively. Their X-ray crystal structural analyses revealed a monomeric form for the former complex and a dimeric geometry containing bridging S-Rh-S bonds for the latter in the solid state. They were reacted with bromine to afford [RhBr(L)(C₃S₅)] (L=η⁵-C₅H₅ and η⁵-C₅Me₅) with the Rh-Br bond and one electron-oxidation on the C₃S₅ ligand. ESR spectra and spin densities for these oxidized species are discussed.     

Über die Synthese von Verbindungen mit dem Skelett der Homoproaporphine. 7. Mitteilung über natürliche und synthetische Isochinolinderivate

The synthesis of the tetracyclic spiro compounds 11, 12, 13, 14, 17, 18, 19 and 20 with homoproaporphine skeleton is described. Crucial intermediates are the secondary alcohols 10 and 16 . The structure of the spiro compounds is proved by transformation of 11 into the dihydronaphthalene derivative 24 and NMR.-spectroscopic studies of the latter.     

Zwitterionic titanoxanes {Cp[η-C5H4B(C6F5)3]Ti}2O and {(η-PrC5H4)[η-1,3-PrC5H3B(C6F5)3]Ti}2O as catalysts for cationic ring-opening polymerization

Zwitterionic titanoxanes {Cp[η⁵-C₅H₄B(C₆F₅)₃]Ti}₂O (I) and {(η⁵-ⁱPrC₅H₄)[η⁵-1,3-ⁱPrC₅H₃B(C₆F₅)₃]Ti}₂O (II), which contain two positively charged Ti(IV) centres in the molecule, are able to catalyse the ring-opening polymerization of -caprolactone (-CL) in toluene solution and in bulk. The process proceeds with a noticeable rate even at room temperature and accelerates strongly on raising the temperature to 60 °C. The best results have been obtained on carrying out the reaction in bulk. Under these conditions, the use of I as a catalyst (-CL:I = 1000:1) gives at 60 °C close to quantitative yield of poly--CL with the molecular mass of 197 000. An increase in the -CL:I ratio to 6000:1 increases the molecular mass of poly--CL to 530 000. Tetrahydrofuran (THF) is also polymerized under the action of I albeit with a lesser rate. However, the molecular mass of the resulting poly-THF can reach rather big values under optimal conditions (up to 217 000 at 20 °C and the THF:I ratio of 770:1). A rise in the reaction temperature from 20 to 60 °C results here to a decrease in the efficiency of the process. Titanoxane II is close to I in its catalytic activity in the -CL polymerization but it is much less active in the polymerization of THF. Propylene oxide (PO), in contrast to -CL and THF, gives with I only liquid oligomers in wide temperature and PO:I molar ratio ranges (−30 to +20 °C, PO:I = 500–2000:1). γ-Butyrolactone and 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone are not polymerized under the action of I at room temperature. The reactions found are the first examples of catalysis of the cationic ring-opening polymerization by zwitterionic metallocenes of the group IVB metals.     

Tieftemperatur-flüssigphase-fluorierung von (C6F5)2Te: Bildung von (C6F5)2TeF2, (C6F5)2TeF4 und (C6F11)2TeF4 [1]

The intermediates (C₆F_11?2n)₂TeF₄ (n = 1,2) are detected spectroscopically. (C₆F₅)₂TeF₂ is also formed from the reaction of (C₆F₅)₂Te with XeF₂. The preparations, properties and ¹⁹F n.m.r. spectra of these new compounds are discussed, the mass and vibrational spectra are described.

Kristall- und molekülstruktur von hexaphenyldistannylselenid (C6H5)3SnSeSn(C6H5)3

The crystal and molecular structure of hexaphenylditin selenide (C₆H₅)₃SnSeSn(G₆H₅)₃ was determined by X-ray diffraction data and was refined to R  0.055. The compound is monoclinic, space group P2₁, with a  9.950(4), b  18.650(7), c  18.066(6) Å, β  106.81(4)°, Z  4. The two molecules in the asymmetric unit differ slightly in their conformations, both having approximate C₂ symmetry. Bond lengths and angles are: SnSe 2.526 (2.521(3) ? 2.538(3)) Å; SnC 2.138 (2.107(16)?2.168(19)) Å; SnSeSn 103.4(1)°, 105.2(1)°. There are only slight angular distortions at the SnSeC₃ tetrahedra (SeSnC angles: 104.3(5)?114.8(4)°). The bond data indicate essentially single bonds around the Sn atoms.     

Komplexe mit kohlenstoffsulfiden und -seleniden als liganden : X. Synthese und kristallstruktur von C5H5(PMe3)Co(μ-CS)2CoC5H5: Ein zweikernkomplex mit unsymmetrischen Co(CS)Co-brückenbindungen

The complex C₅H₅(PMe₃)Co(μ-CS)₂CoC₅H₅ (I) is formed by the reaction of C₅H₅Co(PMe₃)CS and CH₂I₂. The X-ray structure analysis shows an unsymmetrical non-planar Co₂C₂-skeleton with different Co---C bond lengths. The Co---Co distance is 239.2 pm. Compound I thus represents a new example of binuclear (18 + 16)-electron complexes in which the more electron-rich metal atom forms a donor bond to the more electron-poor counterpart. The reaction of I with ligands such as P(NMe₂)₃ does not lead to bridge cleavage indicating the stability of the Co(CS)₂Co-framework.     

Synthesis and reactions of a nucleophilic bis(μ-dimethylphosphido)dicobalt complex. The crystal and molecular structure of [C5H5Co(μ-PMe2)]2 and [(C5H5Co)2(μ-H)(μ-PMe2)2]BPh4

The bis(μ-dimethylphosphido)dicobalt complex [C₅H₅Co(μ-PMe₂)]₂ (II) has been prepared from Co(C₅H₅ and PMe₂H on almost quantitative yield. It has also been made by reduction of [C₅H₅Co(PMe₂H)₃]I₂ (IV) with NaH and from the reaction of [C₅H₅(PMe₃)Co(μ-CO)₂Mn(CO)C₅H₄Me] with PMe₂H. Protonation of II with CF₃CO₃H in the presence of NH₄PF₆ produces the PF₆^? salt of the (μ-hydrido)dicobalt cation [(C₅H₅Co)₂(μ-H)(μ-PMe₂)₂]⁺ (V) which reacts with aqueous NaOH to give II. Similar treatment of [C₅H₅Co(μ-SMe]₂ with CF₃CO₂H/NH₄PF₆ leads to the formation of [(C₅H₅Co)₂(μ-SMe)₃]PF₆ (VI). The nucleophilic character of complex II has also been demonstrated in the reaction with SO₂, which gives [(C₅H₅Co)₂ (μ-PMe₂)₂(μ-SO₂)] (VII). The crystal and molecular structures of II, the corresponding bis(μ-diphenylphosphido) compound [C₅H₅Co(μ-PPh₂)]₂ (III) and the BPh₄^? salt of V have been determined. In both neutral complexes the Co₂P₂ cores are similarly puckered, as reflected in the dihedral angle between the CoP₂ and P₂Co′ planes of 108.1 and 105.0° for R = Me and Ph, respectively. The CoCo bond length and the PP interatomic separations are essentially identical for both dimers. The CoCo bond length in V, 2.517(1) Å, is lower than that in II, 2.542(2) Å. The only obvious structural variation between the unprotonated and the protonated species is the large difference in the degree of canting of the C₅H₅ rings with respect to each other. The angles between the C₅(ring)-centroid and the CoCo line are ca. 150 and 167° in II and V, respectively, which reflects the influence of the bridging hydride ligand in the cationic complex.     

Kristall-und molekülstrukturen zweier modifikationen de hexaphenyldigermylsulfids (C6H5)3GeSGe(C6H5)3

en Two differnt crystal modifications of hexaphenyldigermanium sulfide (C₆H₅GeSGe(C₆H₅)₃ (I and II were obtained by crystallization from hot benzene/methanol or form ethanol at 20°C. Single crystal X-ray structural analyses for both I (low temperature data at ?130°C) and II (at 20°C) (I, R = 0.046; II, R = 0.048) were performed. I is monoclinic, P2¹/c, with a = 11.020(3), b = 15.473(3), c 18.606(3) »,π = 106.92(2)°, Z = 4; II is orthorhombic, P2₁2₁2₁, with a = 2.617(2), b = 17.345(3), c = 18.408(3) », Z = 4.The molecules have different conformeric structures with respect to a rotation of the (C₆H₆)₃Ge groups around the Ge bonds with very similar bond lenghts and angles. Bond data for I(II) are: GeS 2.212(1) and 2.261(1) » (2.227(2) and 2.240(2) »); GeC 1.933(4) ? 1.971(4), mean 1.945(5) » (1.931(7)?1.954(7), mean 1.943(4) »); GeSGe 111.2(1)° (110.7(1)°). The Ge bond lenghts are comparable to those in thiogermanates and do not indicate significant π-bond contributions.
