Heterobimetallic complexes of cis-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphine)ethene containing tin and nickel,palladium or platinum

Summary New heterobimetallic complexes of nickel, palladium or platinum and the ligand cis-1,2-bis(diphenylphosphine)-ethene, dppen, and tin were prepared. The transition metal is bonded either directly or via chlorine bridges to the tin atom. The compounds were obtained from precursor complexes of the general formula [M(dppen)Cl₂] (M = Ni, Pd or Pt) by reaction with Ph₃SnH or SnCl₂.     

New paramagnetic Re(II) compounds with nitrile and cyanide ligands prepared by homolytic scission of dirhenium complexes

The preparation and characterization of three new paramagnetic complexes of the 17-electron Re(II) ion are reported. The salts [Re(triphos)(CH(3)CN)(3))][X](2), X = [BF(4)](-) (1), [PF(6)](-) (2), and [Et(4)N][Re(triphos)(CN)(3)] (3) were prepared by homolytic cleavage of the Re-Re bond in [Re(2)(CH(3)CN)(10)][BF(4)](4) or by disruption of the chlorine bridges in [(triphos)Re(mu-Cl)(3)Re(triphos)]Cl (1) (triphos = 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphino-methyl)ethane) and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, infrared and (1)H NMR spectroscopies, cyclic voltammetry, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Compound 2 undergoes reversible reduction and irreversible oxidation processes while 3 undergoes a reversible reduction, an irreversible oxidation, and a reversible oxidation. The magnetic susceptibility data for 2 and 3 exhibit a strong temperature independent paramagnetic component which is in accord with a highly anisotropic S = (1)/(2) magnetic ground state. The results of this study indicate that dinuclear Re(2)(II,II) starting materials are viable precursors for producing unusual mononuclear Re(II) complexes.     

Synthesis and reactivity of 1,2-bis(chlorodimethylgermyl)carborane and 1,2-bis(bromodimethylstannyl)carborane

The 1,2-bis(chlorogermyl)- (1) and 1,2-bis(bromostannyl)carborane (2) have been prepared by the reaction of dilithio-o-carborane with Me(2)GeCl(2) and Me(2)SnBr(2), respectively. Compounds 1 and 2 are found to be good precursors for the synthesis of a variety of cyclization compounds. The Wurtz-type coupling reaction of 1 and 2 using sodium metal afforded the four-membered digerma compound 3 and five-membered tristanna compound 4, respectively. The salt elimination reactions of 1 and 2 using Li(2)N(t)Bu and Li(2)PC(6)H(5) afforded the cyclic products [structure: see text]. The 1,2-bis(dimethylgermyl)carborane 9 and 1,2-bis(dimethylstannyl)carborane 10 were prepared by the reaction of 1 and 2 with sodium cyanoborohydride. The reactions of 9 and 10 with Pd(PPh(3))(4) afforded the bis(germyl)palladium 12 and bis(stannyl)palladium 13 complexes, respectively.     

Synthesis of 1,2-bis(methoxyamino)cycloalkanes from alicyclic 1,2-bis(hydroxyamines)

Derivatives of 1,4-dihydroxypiperazine-2,3-dione were obtained by reaction of cis-1,2-bis(hydroxyamino)cycloalkanes with diethyl oxalate. Their alkylation with CH₂N₂ or Mel afforded 1,4-dimethoxypiperazine-2,3-diones. Hydrolysis of the latter gave 1,2-bis(methoxyamino)cycloalkanes.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Transition metal complexes of bis(diphenylphosphine oxide)methane

Complexes of bis(diphenylphosphine oxide)methane with Fe(III), Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) have been prepared and characterized. Experimental data are in support of chelation by the ligand to give 6-coordinate metal ions. The properties of the complexes are similar to those for the corresponding complexes of octamethylpyrophosphoramide.     

A thermal decomposition study on cobalt(II) complexes of 1,2-bis(IMINO-4'-antipyrinyl)ethane

The phenomenological, kinetic and mechanistic aspects of thermal decomposition of perchlorate, nitrate, chloride, bromide and iodide complexes of cobalt(II) with the Schiff base 1,2-bis(imino-4'-antipyrinyl)ethane (GA) have been studied by TG and DTG analyses. The kinetic parameters like the activation energy, pre-exponential factor and entropy of activation were calculated. The decomposition reactions follow 'random nucleation with one nucleus on each particle - Mampel model'. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Copper(I) and mercury(II) halide complexes of 1,2-bis(diphenylthioylphosphino)hydrazine

The reaction of 1,2-bis(diphenylthioylphosphino)hydrazine (L) with copper(I) and mercury(II) halides affords the complexes, [{CuLX}₂] (X = I, Br or Cl), [HgLX₂] (X = Cl or Br) and the tetrametallic complex, [{L(HgI₂)₂}₂]. Single crystal X-ray structures have been performed on the uncoordinated ligand, L, as well as the complexes [{CuLX}₂] (X = I, Br and Cl), [HgLBr₂] and [{L(HgI₂)₂}₂. The molecules of L exist as dimers as a result of pairs of N–HS hydrogen bonds. The copper(I) complexes are centrosymmetric dimetallic species, the two copper atoms being bridged by L and the X atoms. In all cases the coordination sphere around the Cu atoms is approximately trigonal pyramidal with an ‘S₂X₂’ donor set. The complex, [HgLBr₂], is a distorted tetrahedral monomer with an ‘S₂Br₂’ donor set and L acting as a bidentate thus forming a seven-membered chelate ring. The tetramercury iodo complex, [{L(HgI₂)₂}₂], contains two ‘L(HgI₂)₂’ units linked centrosymmetrically via an I atom from each moiety. The geometry around the Hg atoms is distorted tetrahedral. The influence of hydrogen bonding between the hydrazine backbone hydrogens of L and the coordinated halide ions in for the structures of the metal complexes is discussed.     

Synthesis of 1,2 difluoro-1,2-bis(pentafluorophenyl)dichlorane

1,2-Difluoro-1,2-bis(pentafluorophenyl)dichlorane is a new class of organic polyvalent chlorine compound. The closeness of the retention time of this compound and that of chloropentafluoro- benzene made its purification difficult. All attempts to obtain this compound in high yield have failed. 1,2-Difluoro-1,2-bis- (pentafluorophenyl)dichlorane is prepared by fluorination of chloropentafluorobenzene at 128°C with elemental fluorine. It has been characterized by ¹⁹F n.m.r., i.r., mass spectroscopy and elemental analysis.     

Photophysical and electrochemical properties of 1,3-bis(2-pyridylimino)isoindolate platinum(II) derivatives

A series of twelve platinum(II) complexes of the form (N^N^N)PtX have been synthesized and characterized where N^N^N is 1,3-bis(2-pyridylimino)isoindolate ligands (BPI) or BPI ligands whose aryl moieties are substituted with tert-butyl, nitro, alkoxy, iodo or chloro groups, and X is a chloride, fluoride, cyano, acetate, phenyl or 4-(dimethylamino)phenyl ligand. All complexes display at least one irreversible oxidation and two reversible reduction waves at potentials dependent on the position and the electron donating or withdrawing nature of both X and the substituted N^N^N ligand. Broad room temperature phosphorescence ranging in energy from 594 to 680 nm was observed from the complexes, with quantum efficiencies ranging from 0.01 to 0.05. The efficiency of emission is dictated largely by nonradiative processes since the rate constants for nonradiative deactivation [(1.1-100) × 10(5) s(-1)] show greater variation than those for radiative decay [(0.57-4.0) × 0(4) s(-1)]. Nonradiative deactivation for compounds with X = Cl follow the energy gap law, i.e. the nonradiative rate constants increase exponentially with decreasing emission energy. Deactivation of the excited state appears to be strongly influenced by a non-planar distortion of the BPI ligand.     

Synthesis of new ruthenium(II) complexes derived from labile nitrile ligands: an alternative route to the preparation of trans-dichlorotetrakis(diphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II)

New ruthenium(II) complexes containing labile nitrile ligands have been prepared by treatment of either the polymer [{RuCl₂(COD)}_x] (COD = cycloocta-1,5-diene) (1) or its derivative [RuCl₂(COD)(NCCH₃)₂]·NCCH₃ (2) with the appropriate nitrile ligands in refluxing acetonitrile under argon. A new route to synthesis of trans-dichlorotetrakis(diphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II) (7) was also reported. A redetermination of the structure of 7 was undertaken and X-ray crystallographic data revealed that the complex crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with unit cell dimensions a = 12.7016(9) Å, b = 13.0847(10) Å, c = 14.1498(10) Å, α = 101.46(3)°, V = 2080.6(3) Å³, Z = 2 and R = 0.0309. Its polymorph 7′ was also obtained. The crystal structure of 4 was also determined. This complex crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with unit cell dimensions a = 27.0510(3) Å, b = 11.0984(13) Å, c = 13.0450(16) Å, α = 90°, V = 3886.5(8) Å³, Z = 8 and R = 0.0282.
