Synthesis and crystal structure of new one-dimensional copper(II) complex [Cu4(En)2(μ1,1-N3)4(μ1,1,1-N3)2(μ1,3-N3)2]n

A new polymer azido-bridged copper(II) complex [Cu₄(En)₂(μ_1,1-N₃)₄(μ_1,1,1-N₃)₂(μ_1,3-N₃)₂] _n (I) (En = ethylenediamine) has been synthesized and crystallography characterized. Complex I shows one-dimensional coordination polymeric structure based on a tetranuclear cluster unit [Cu₄(En)₂(μ_1,1-N₃)₄(μ_1,1,1-N₃)₂(μ_1,3-N₃)₂], in which the azido ions display three different bridging modes.     

Synthesis,structure characterization and thermal properties of [Zr6(μ3-O)4(μ3-OH)4(OOCCH2Bu)9(μ2-OH)3]2

Oxo/hydoxo zirconium(IV) complex of the general formula [Zr₆(μ₃-O)₄(μ₃-OH)₄(OOCCH₂^tBu)₉(μ₂-OH)₃]₂ has been isolated, when Zr(OⁱPr)₄ reacted with a 2-fold excess of 3,3-dimethylbutyric acid. Single crystal X-ray diffraction data, collected at 103 and 153 K, showed that the studied compound crystallizes in hexagonal system (P6₃/m (no. 176)). Structure consists of dimers composed of [Zr₆(μ₃-O)₄(μ₃-OH)₄(OOCCH₂^tBu)₉] sub-units, linked by six μ₂-OH bridges. Infrared spectroscopic studies proved the presence of hydroxo groups in the structure of studied clusters and formation of different types of oxo/hydroxo bridges. The application of variable temperature infrared spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry revealed that the structure of this complex undergoes the phase transitions at 143–183 and 203–293 K. Comparison of spectral and crystallographic data suggests that these phase transitions might be related to changes in the strength of Zr–O bonds of μ₂-OH bridges linking complex sub-units, and change in symmetry of the crystal lattice (from hexagonal to trigonal). Analysis of thermogravimetric data showed that decomposition of [Zr₆(μ₃-O)₄(μ₃-OH)₄(OOCCH₂^tBu)₉(μ₂-OH)₃]₂ proceeds with complete conversion to ZrO₂ (monoclinic form) between 603 and 803 K.

New cluster complexes [W₃S₄(Acac)₃(PPh₃)₃]PF₆ · 0.5CHCl₃ (Acac = CH₃C(O)CHC(O)CH₃) (I) and [W₃S₄(Hfac)₃(PPh₃)₂Br] · 2CHCl₃ (Hfac = CF₃C(O)CHC(O)CF₃) (II) were synthesized. Their molecular and crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. The cis-cis type of coordination of acetylacetonate and hexafluoroacetylacetonate ligands in I and II, respectively, was established, and the PPh₃ ligands were found in the trans-positions with respect to the “capping” sulfide ligand (μ³-S).

Formation of the silylene-bridged complex Fe2(CO)6(μ2-SiCl2)3 from cis-Fe(CO)4(SiCl3)2: an experimental and computational study

Abstract  

Thermolysis of cis-Fe(CO)₄(SiCl₃)₂ results in the formation of the novel compound Fe₂(CO)₆(μ₂-SiCl₂)₃, which was characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. Density functional theory calculations were carried out to elucidate possible reaction steps leading to the formation of Fe₂(CO)₆(SiCl₂)₃, including CO dissociation and chlorine abstraction by a SiCl₃ radical generated from homolytic Fe–Si bond cleavage involving a singlet–triplet intersystem crossing.     

Stepwise addition of CuBr at [(dtc)2Mo2(S)2(μ-S)2] (dtc=diethyldithiocarbamate): syntheses and crystal structures of two Mo/Cu/S clusters [(dtc)2Mo2(μ3-S)(μ-S)3(CuBr)] and [(dtc)2Mo2(μ3-S)4(CuBr)2]

Reactions of [(dtc)₂Mo₂(S)₂(μ-S)₂] with one or two equivalents of CuBr in CH₂Cl₂ afforded two new heterobimetallic sulfide clusters, [(dtc)₂Mo₂(μ₃-S)(μ-S)₃(CuBr)] (1) and [(dtc)₂Mo₂(μ₃-S)₄(CuBr)₂] (2). Both compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV-vis and X-ray analysis. Compound 1 contains a butterfly-shaped Mo₂S₄Cu core in which one CuBr unit is coordinated by one bridging S and two terminal S atoms of the [(dtc)₂Mo₂(S)₂(μ-S)₂] moiety. In the structure of 2, one [(dtc)₂Mo₂(S)₂(μ-S)₂] moiety and two CuBr units are held together by six Cu-μ₃-S bonds, forming a cubane-like Mo₂S₄Cu₂ core.

The reaction between AuMe(PPh₃) and Ru₃(μ-H)₃(μ₃-CBr)(CO)₉ (1) affords the novel heptanuclear cluster Au₄Ru₃(μ₃-CMe)(Br)(CO)₉(PPh₃)₃ (2), containing an Au/Ru₃/Au trigonal pyramidal cluster face-capped by two Au(PPh₃) groups and a CMe ligand, together with Au₂Ru₃(μ-H)(μ₃-CMe)(CO)₉(PPh₃)₂ (3), formed by isolobal replacement of two of the three μ-H atoms in 1 by Au(PPh₃) groups. The latter co-crystallises with the analogous μ₃-CH complex, as also shown spectroscopically.

Two new double complex salts [Pd(NH₃)₄]₃[Rh(NO₂)₆]₂ (I) and [Pd(NH₃)₄]₃[Rh(NO₂)₆]₂·H₂O (II) are synthesized and characterized. The techniques to produce one-phase residues of the salts are developed. The crystallographic data for I: a = 18.915(2) ?, V = 6767.4 ?³, F-43c space group, Z = 8, d _x = 2.548 g/cm³; II: a = 21.160(6) ?, b = 8.085(7) ?, c = 21.363(4) ?, β = 91.71(4)°, V = 3661.1(6) ?³, P2₁/c space group, d _x = 2.357 g/cm³.

Synthesis,X-ray crystal structure and thermal decomposition of two peroxovanadium complexes with coordinated ammonia molecules: [{VO(O2)2(NH3)}2{μ-Cu(NH3)4}] and [Zn(NH3)4][VO(O2)2(NH3)]2

The compounds [{VO(O₂)₂(NH₃)}₂{μ-Cu(NH₃)₄}] (1) and [Zn(NH₃)₄][VO(O₂)₂(NH₃)]₂ (2) were prepared and characterized by elemental analysis and infrared spectra. The single crystal X-ray study revealed that the structure of 1 consists of trinuclear complex molecules [(NH₃)OV(O₂)₂{μ-Cu(NH₃)₄}(O₂)₂VO(NH₃)] with a rare heterobimetalic peroxo bridge: copper(II)–peroxo ligand–vanadium(V). The structure of 2 is composed of tetraamminezinc(II) cations and ammineoxodiperoxovanadate(V) anions. In course of thermal decomposition of 1 performed up to 620 °C, the following intermediate products: [Cu(NH₃)₂(VO₃)₂], and subsequently a mixture of V₂O₅ with monoclinic β-Cu₂V₂O₇, were gradually formed. The final product of decomposition is Cu(VO₃)₂. The thermal decomposition of 2 is a two-step process. In the first stage, [Zn(NH₃)₃(VO₃)₂] as supposed intermediate was formed, which transformed at higher temperatures by release of ammonia molecules to the monoclinic modification of Zn(VO₃)₂.

Thiolate-bridged heterometallic complexes of manganese and platinum: Synthesis and molecular structures of (CO)4Mn(μ-SPh)Pt(PPh3)2, (CO)3(PPh3)Mn(μ-SPh)Pt(PPh3)(CO), and (CO)3Mn(μ-SPh)Pt(PPh3)(Dppm)

A reaction of the dimer [Mn(CO)₄(SPh)]₂ with (PPh₃)₂Pt(C₂Ph₂) gave the heterometallic complex (CO)₄Mn(μ-SPh)Pt(PPh₃)₂ (I) and its isomer (CO)₃(PPh₃)Mn(μ-SPh)Pt(PPh₃)(CO) (II). A reaction of complex I with a diphosphine ligand (Dppm) yielded the heterometallic complex (CO)₃Mn(μ-SPh)Pt(PPh₃)(Dppm) (III). Complexes I–III were characterized by X-ray diffraction. In complex I, the single Mn-Pt bond (2.6946(3) ?) is supplemented with a thiolate bridge with the shortened Pt-S and Mn-S bonds (2.3129(5) and 2.2900(6) ?, respectively). Unlike complex I, in complex II, one phosphine group at the Pt atom is exchanged for one CO group at the Mn atom. The Mn-Pt bond (2.633(1) ?) and the thiolate bridge (Pt-S, 2.332(2) ?; Mn-S, 2.291(2) ?) are retained. In complex III, the Mn-Pt bond (2.623(1) ?) is supplemented with thiolate (Pt-S, 2.341(2) ?; Mn-S, 2.292(2) 0?) and Dppm bridges (Pt-P, 2.240(1)?; Mn-P, 2.245(2) ?). Apparently, the Pt atom in complexes I–III is attached to the formally double bond , as in Pt complexes with olefins.

Reactions of Cu3(dppm)3(μ3-OH)(ClO4)2 (dppm = bis-(diphenylphosphino) methane) with Soft Heterocumulenes

The reaction of [Cu₃(dppm)₃(μ₃-OH)](ClO₄)₂ (1) with heterocumulenes (XCS; X = NPh, NMe and S) has been studied. The μ₃-OH ligand inserts into PhNCS and MeNCS only in the presence of methanol. Insertion products are formed in accord with earlier observations made with copper(I)-aryloxides. On heating, the insertion products convert to a S bridged cluster [Cu₄(dppm)₄(μ₄-S)](ClO₄)₂ (8), having a tetrameric core. However, in the reaction with CS₂, 1 is converted to 8 even at room temperature in the presence of methanol. On the other hand, the dimeric complex [Cu₂(dppm)₂(CH₃CN)₄](ClO₄)₂, reacts with CS₂ to give (diphenylphosphinomethyl)-diphenylphosphine sulfide, Ph₂P-CH₂-P(S)Ph₂ (dppmS), which forms the complex [Cu(dppmS)₂]ClO₄ (9). A single crystal X-ray crystallographic study of 9, the first copper(I) complex of dppmS has been taken up to confirm the mono-oxidation of the dppm ligand and the nuclearity of the complex. Reactions of complex 1 with heterocumulenes and with elemental sulfur, are compared.

Cluster 5 exists as a mixture of two isomers. The inter-relationship among the clusters has also been investigated.
