Sulfinylamid-Metathese und Nitren-Transfer an Komplexen des sechswertigen Molybdäns und Wolframs

Sulfinylamide Metathesis and Nitrene Transfer at Complexes of Hexavalent Molybdenum and Tungsten Protolysis of tungsten hexachloride with tosyl amide offers a direct access to [W(NTos)₂Cl₂]_n ( 1 a) . In presence of donor ligands coordination polymer 1 a can be converted into molecular complexes, e. g. [W(NTos)₂Cl₂(dme)] ( 1 b ), [W(NTos)₂Cl₂(PMe₃)₂] ( 1 c ) and [W(NTos)₂Cl₂(4,4′-Me₂bipy)] ( 1 d ). The synthesis of the homologous molybdenum compound [Mo(NTos)₂Cl₂]_n ( 2 a) can be achieved via metathesis of [Mo(O)₂Cl₂]_n with sulfinyl amide Tos-NSO. An attempt to synthesize a molybdenum phosphine complex in an analogous manner as 1 c , but starting from 2 a or its base adduct [Mo(NTos)₂Cl₂(dme)] ( 2 b ), leads to nitrene transfer to the phosphine. Me₃P=NTos can be detected and the d² molybdenum complex [Mo(NTos)Cl₂(PMe₃)₃] ( 3 ) is isolated. 3 is characterized by a crystal structure analysis. In phosphine complex 1 c , a similar nitrene abstraction is inhibited, in contrast 1 d is reacting with PMe₃ under nitrene abstraction to yield [W(NTos)Cl₂(4,4′-Me₂bipy)(PMe₃)₂] ( 4 ). This observation is in accord with a nitrene transfer induced via direct attack of the phosphine on the nitrogen atom of 1 d .     

Sigma‐ versus Pi‐Koordination in Bis‐indenyl‐ und Bis‐2‐methallyl‐Imidokomplexen des sechswertigen Molybdäns und Wolframs: DF‐Rechnungen und Kristallstrukturanalyse

Sigma‐ versus Pi‐Coordination in Bis‐indenyl‐ and Bis‐2‐methallyl Imido Complexes of Hexavalent Molybdenum and Tungsten: DF‐Calculations and Crystal Structure Analysis Bis‐indenyl and bis‐2‐methallyl imido complexes [(C₉H₇)₂M(NR)₂] (M = Mo, W; R = tert‐butyl, mesityl) 1 — 4 and [(H₃C‐C₃H₄)₂M(NtBu)₂] (M = Mo, W) 6 , 7 have been prepared starting from [Mo(NtBu)₂Cl₂] or [M(NR)₂Cl₂L₂] (M = W, R = tBu, L = py; M = Mo, W, R = Mes, L₂ = dme) and indenyl lithium or 2‐methallyl magnesium bromide, respectively. According to spectroscopic data and the crystal structure of 4 there are two different coordination modes of the indenyl ligands, [(η³‐C₉H₇)M(NR)₂(η¹‐C₉H₇)], in solution as well as in the solid state. These compounds show fluxional rearrangements in solution, namely σ, π‐exchange of η¹‐ and η³‐coordinated ligands. Similar behavior has been observed for the 2‐methallyl complexes 6 and 7 in solution. In agreement with experimental observations, DF calculations on models of 6 strongly suggest a (σ+π)‐coordination mode of the η³‐coordinated ligand.

Chalkogen‐Derivate der Halbsandwich‐Wolfram(V)‐Komplexe Cp*WCl4 und Cp*WCl4(PMe3). Röntgen‐Kristallstrukturanalysen von anti‐[Cp*W(Se)(μ‐Se)]2 und Cp*W(S)2(OMe)

Chalcogen Derivatives of the Halfsandwich Tungsten(V) Complexes Cp*WCl₄ and Cp*WCl₄(PMe₃). X‐Ray Crystal Structure Analyses of anti ‐[Cp*W(Se)(μ‐Se)]₂ and Cp*W(S)₂(OMe) The chalcogenation of Cp*WCl₄ ( 1 ) by E(SiMe₃)₂ (E = S, Se) and Te(SiMe₂^tBu)₂ in chloroform solution leads to dimeric products of the type anti‐[Cp*W(E)(μ‐E)]₂ (E = S ( 3 a ), Se ( 3 b ) and Te ( 3 c )). An X‐ray structure determination of 3 b indicates a centrosymmetric molecule containing a planar W(μ‐Se)₂W ring, the W–W distance (297.9(1) pm) corresponds to a single bond. In the presence of air the two terminal chalcogenido ligands (E) in 3 a – c are stepwise replaced by oxido ligands (O) to give [Cp*W(O)(μ‐E)]₂ (E = S ( 5 a ), Se ( 5 b ) and Te ( 5 c )) in quantitative yields. The reaction of Cp*WCl₄ with H₂S or ammonium polysulfide, (NH₄)₂S_x (x ∼ 10), leads to Cp*W(S)₂Cl ( 6 a ); the corresponding methoxy derivative, Cp*W(S)₂OCH₃ ( 9 a ), has been characterized by an X‐ray structure analysis. On the other hand, the reaction of Cp*WCl₄(PMe₃) ( 2 ) with sodium tetrasulfide, Na₂S₄, in dimethylformamide solution gives a mixture of mononuclear Cp*W(S)(S₂)Cl ( 8 a ), dinuclear [Cp*W(S)(μ‐S)]₂ ( 3 a ) and a trinuclear side‐product of composition Cp*₂W₃S₇ ( 13 a ). Terminal sulfido ligands are replaced by terminal oxido ligands in solution in the presence of oxygen. Thus, 6 a is stepwise converted into Cp*W(O)(S)Cl ( 10 a ) and CpW(O)₂Cl ( 12 a ), whereas 8 a gives Cp*W(O)(S₂)Cl ( 11 a ) and 13 a leads to Cp*₂W₃(O)S₆ ( 14 a ). The disulfido complexes 8 a and 11 a are desulfurized by triphenylphosphane to give 6 a and 10 a . The new complexes have been characterized by their IR and NMR spectra and by mass spectrometry.

With excess 1,4‐dioxane the molybdenum compound forms the complex [MoCl₃(N₃S₂)(1,4‐dioxane)₂] in which, according to the crystal structure determination, one of the dioxane molecules coordinates at the molybdenum atom, the other one at one of the sulfur atoms of the cyclo‐thiazeno ring. The μ‐(NSN^2–) complex [Mo₂Cl₂(μ‐NSN)₂(μ‐O)(NCMe₃)(OCMe₃)₂]₂ has been obtained by the reaction of [MoN(OCMe₃)₃] with trithiazyle chloride in carbontetrachloride solution. According to the crystal structure determination this compound forms centrosymmetric dimeric molecules via two of the nitrogen atoms of two of the μ‐(NSN) groups to give a Mo₂N₂ fourmembered ring.

Novel Neutral and Cationic Mono‐Aziridine Complexes of the Type [CpMn(CO)₂Az], [CpCr(NO)₂Az]⁺, and [(Ph₃P)(CO)₄ReAz]⁺ via CO‐, Hydride‐, and Chloride‐Elimination Reactions The monoaziridine complexes 1 — 5 are obtained by three differently induced substitution reactions. The photolytically induced CO substitution reaction of [CpMn(CO)₃] with 2, 2‐dimethylaziridine leads to the neutral N‐coordinate aziridine complex [Cp(CO)₂Mn{$\overline{N(H)CMe₂C}$ H₂}] ( 1 ).

Carbonyl Complexes of Chromium, Molybdenum and Tungsten with Isocyano Acetate. Reactions of Coordinated Isocyanoacetate. Stabilization of Isocyanoacetic Acid and Isocyanoacetyl Chloride at the Metal Atom. Isocyanopeptides The reactions of [(OC)₅MCNCH₂CO₂Et] (M = Cr, W) with Na[N(SiMe₃)₂] or with KOH afford the isocyanoacetate complexes [(OC)₅MCNCH₂CO₂]^? ( 1,2 ). Similarly, the complex [(OC)₃Mo(CNCH₂CO₂^?Li⁺)₃] ( 4 ) was obtained from [(OC)₃Mo(CNCH₂CO₂Et)₃] ( 3 ) and LiOH. Protonation of 1 and 2 affords the sublimable isocyanoacetic acid complexes [(OC)₅MCNCH₂CO₂H] ( 5 , 6 ; M = Cr, W) in which the functional isocyanide is stabilized at the metal atom. Reactions of [(OC)₅WCNCH₂CO₂^?K⁺] and of [(OC)₃Mo(CNCH₂CO₂^?Li⁺)₃] with oxalyl dichloride give the isocyanoacetyl chloride compounds [(OC)₅WCNCH₂COCl] ( 9 ) (sublimable) and [(OC)₃Mo(CNCH₂COCl)₃] ( 10 ); the latter ( 10 ) was not isolated. Complexes 9 and 10 were reacted in situ with β‐alanine, glycine, phenylalanine and methionine esters as well as the peptide esters GlyGlyOEt, PhePheOMe, Phe‐β‐AlaOMe, and GlyGlyGlyOMe to form the isocyanoacetyl amino acid esters ( 11 ‐ 14 ) and the isocyanoacetyl peptide esters ( 15 ‐ 18 ) which are stabilized at the molybdenum atom.
