Synthesis and Crystal Structure of [CpRu(η5-C5H5)(dppc)Cl][PF6]

The title complex [Ru(η5-C5H5)(dppc)Cl][PF6] has been synthesized by the reaction of [Ru(η5-C5H5)(PPh3)2Cl] with [dppc][PF6] (1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)cobaltocenium hexaflurophospate) in CH2Cl2, and its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. It crystallizes in monoclinic, space group P21/n with a = 15.754(8), b =13.704(7), c=19.120(10) (A),β=106.148(9)°, V=3965(4) (A)3, Z=4, C40H35Cl3CoF6P3Ru, Mr=988.94, Dc=1.657 g/cm3, F(000) = 1984 and μ(MoKα) = 1.181 mm-1. The final R = 0.0425 and wR = 0.1001 for 7002 independent reflections. The title complex shows a mononuclear Ru(Ⅱ)capped by an η5-Cp ring, a chelating η2-dppc and a terminal chloride to assume a three-legged piano-stool configuration.

Crystal structure and thermal properties of [Pt(NH3)5Cl][ReCl6]Cl·H2O

The crystal structure of double complex salt [Pt(NH₃)₅Cl][ReCl₆]Cl·H₂O is determined. Crystallographic characteristics are: a = 23.9502(4) Å, b = 7.5963(1) Å, c = 8.9016(2) Å, V = 1619.49(5) ų, space group Pnma, Z = 4, d _x = 3.150 g/cm³.

Some reactions of [(η6-C6Me6)Ru(η6-[2.2]paracyclophane)]-[BF4]2 with nucleophiles

Single addition of the nucleophiles X⁻ (X = H, CN, OH) to the less sterically hindered ring in [(η⁶-C₆Me₆)Ru(η⁶-C₁₆H₁₆)][BF₄]₂ (1) proceeds smoothly to produce, as the sole product, [(exo-η⁵-C₆Me₆X)Ru(η⁶-C₁₆H₁₆)][BF₄]. Use of Na[BD₄] in place of Na[BH₄] gives the expected shift in ν(C-H_exo) in the infrared spectrum.     

Crystal structure of twinned (η5-C5(CH3)4CF3) (η5-C5(CH3)5)Ru

The substituted sandwich complex crystallizes in monoclinic space groupP2₁/m withZ=2. Twinning to the (001) direction with the special conditionc ^*/4a ^* = cos ^* causes systematic superposition of the reciprocal lattices of both domains and results in an apparent unit cell with double volume and the reflection condition (2h)kl, l=2n. The structure solution was obtained with the subset of intensity data for the predominant individuum and converged atR = 0.040,R _w =0.046 for 832 independent observations and 122 variables. The molecules show disorder with respect to the crystallographic mirror plane. The structure is closely related to that of decamethylruthenocene.

The structure of the new compound [Mo(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂(2-NHNC₅H₄)][PF₆] (1) has been determined. The crystals are orthorhombic, space group Pca2₁ with a 20.807(1), b 8.0030(8), c 10.056(3) Å, V 1674.5 ų, Z = 4. The structure of [Mo(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂(2-ONC₅H₄)][PF₆] (2) has also been determined.

For 1 the MoN bond lengths are 2.160(8) and 2.142(9) Å, with a NMoN bond angle of 59.8(3)°, whereas for 2 MoO is 2.142(10), MoN is 2.138(11) Å, the NMoO angle is 61.2(4)°. These parameters are discussed and compared with the corresponding data for similar biscyclopentadienyl complexes of molybdenum(IV). Extended Hückel molecular orbital calculations have been carried out to throw light on the nature of the bonding between the metal and the bidentate ligand.     

Syntheses of (η6-p-cymene)ruthenium(II) piano-stool amine complexes: molecular structure of [(η6-C10H14)RuCl2(H2N-C6H4-p-Cl)]

The dimeric complex [{(η⁶-p-cymene)Ru(μ-Cl)Cl}₂] (1) reacts with S,N-donor Schiff base ligands, para-substituted S-(thiophen-2-ylmethylene)phenylamines in methanol to give mononuclear amine complexes of the type [(η⁶-p-cymene)RuCl₂(NH₂–C₆H₄–p-X)] {X?=?H (2a); X?=?CH₃ (2b); X?=?OCH₃ (2c); X?=?Cl (2d); Br (2e) X?=?NO₂ (2f), respectively} by hydrolysis of the imine group of the ligand after coordination to the metal. The complexes were characterized by analysis and IR and NMR spectroscopy. The molecular structure of [(η⁶-C₁₀H₁₄)RuCl₂(H₂N–C₆H₄–p-Cl)] (2d) was established by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study.     

The X-ray crystal structure of di-η5-cyclopentadienylthiophenolatoamminemolybdenum(IV) hexafluorophosphate solvate [Mo(η5-C5H5)2(NH3)(SC6H5)][PF6] · (CH32CO

Extended HMO and steric energy calculations were made in order to account for the geometry adopted by the thiolato ligand in this complex.     

Syntheses,spectroscopic and structural studies of indenyl ruthenium complexes incorporating amine and nitrile ligands: molecular structures of [(η5-C9H7) Ru(η2-dppe)(CH3CN)]PF6 and [(η5-C9H7)Ru(η2-dppe)(NH3)]PF6

The reaction of [(η⁵-C₉H₇)Ru(η²-dppe)Cl] (1) with monodentate nitriles, (L) in the presence of NH₄PF₆ afforded the complexes [(η⁵-C₉H₇)Ru(η²-dppe)(L)]PF₆, with L?=?CH₃CN (2a), CH₃CH=CHCN (2b), NCC₆H₄CN (2c), C₆H₅CH₂CN (2d), respectively.

FinalR andR _w values are 0.0583 and 0.0632, respectively. Compound1 exhibits surprisingly short Ti-Cl and Ti-O distances, suggesting strong donation by the chloride and in particular by the alkoxide ligand. The Ti-O-C angle is unusually large.

Neue [Ti(⁵-C₅H₅)Cl₂(OR)]-Komplexe. Kristall- und Molekülstruktur von ⁵-Cyclopentadienyl(cyclohexoxy)titan(IV) Dichlorid

Zusammenfassung Durch Umsetzung von [Ti(⁵-C₅H₅)Cl₃] mit dem geeigneten Alkohol wurde eine Reihe von neuen Verbindungen der Formel [Ti(⁵-C₅H₅)(OR)] (R=C₆H₁₁ (cyclohexyl,1), CH₂CH(CH₃)₂ (2), CH(C₂H₅)₂ (3) und CH₂C₆H₅ (4)) erhalten. Alle Komplexe wurden elementaranalytisch sowie IR- und¹H-NMR-spektroskopisch charakterisiert. Die Struktur von1 wurde röntgenographisch bestimmt; Kristalldaten: triklin,a=11.334(2),b=13.590(2),c=12.237(2) Å, =113.501(5), =118.182(5), =101.993(6),V=1328.2(4) ų,T=298K, Raumgruppe P1,Z=4, zwei kristallographisch unabhängige Moleküle in der Elementarzelle; abschließendeR-Werte:R=0.0583 undR _w=0.0632. Verbindung1 zeigt überraschend kurze Ti-Cl- und Ti-O-Abstände; dies deutet auf eine starke -Elektronendonorwirkung des Chlorid- und vor allem des Alkoxidliganden hin. Der Ti-O-C-Bindungswinkel ist ungewöhnlich groß.

     

Molecular structure of ansa-compound (η5-C5H4)CMe2(η5-C9H6)TiCl2

The structure of a new ansa compound, (⁵-C₅H₄)CMe₂(⁵-C₉H₆)TiCl₂ (1), was studied by X-ray analysis:a = 15.00(1),b =15.500(5),c = 13.032(4) Å, = 92.66°(4),V = 3025.1(1) ų, space groupP2₁/.,R = 0.038. The distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere of the Ti atom is formed by two Cl atoms and two -ligands. It was proposed that the angle () between theC-M direction and the line normal to M-Cp can be considered as one of the geometric parameters characteristic of the structure-properties correlation.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Continuous photochemical generation of catalytically active [CpRu]+ complexes from CpRu(η6-C6H6)PF6

Inter- and intramolecular ene-yne coupling reactions catalyzed by a species generated in situ via photolysis of CpRu(η(6)-C(6)H(6))PF(6)--an inexpensive, readily available, and shelf-stable complex--have been demonstrated under conditions of continuous flow. Importantly, the catalyst can be recovered quantitatively at the end of the reaction. Various functional groups are tolerated by the reaction, which affords skipped diene products in high yields.     

The Thermolysis of [Ru3(CO)12] in Cyclohexene: Synthesis and Charaterisation of the New Clusters [Ru3H2(CO)9(μ3-η1:η2:η1-C6H8)] and [Ru5(CO)12(μ4-η2-C6H8)(η4-C6H8)]

Thermolysis of [Ru₃(CO)₁₂] in cyclohexene for 24 h affords the complexes [Ru(CO)₃(η⁴-C₆H₈)] (1), [Ru₃H₂(CO)₉(μ₂-η¹:η²:η¹-C₆H₈)] (2), [Ru₄(CO)₁₂(μ₄-C₆H₈)] (3) [Ru₄(CO)₉(μ₄-C₆H₈)(η⁶-C₆H₆)] (4a and 4b, two isomers) and [Ru₅(CO)₁₂(μ₄-η²-C₆H₈)(η⁴-C₆H₈)] (5), where 1, 3, 4a and 4b have been previously characterised as products of the thermolysis of [Ru₃(CO)₁₂] with cyclohexa-1,3-diene. The molecular structures of the new clusters 2 and 5 were determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, showing that two conformational polymorphs of 5 exist in the solid state, differing in the orientation of the cyclohexa-1,3-diene ligand on a ruthenium vertex.     

The chemistry of cyclopentadienyl-ruthenacyclopentatrienes: novel carbon monoxide and isocyanide insertion reactions in [η5-C5H5)Ru(η4-C5Ph2H2NBut)Br]

Reaction of the novel ruthenacyclopentatriene [(η⁵-C₅H₅)Ru(C₄Ph₂H₂)Br] (1) with isocyanides gives the imino-2,5-diphenylcyclopentadiene complexes [(η⁵-C₅H₅Ru(η⁴-C₅Ph₂H₂NR)Br] (2, R = Me, Et, Cy, t-Bu, 2,6-Me₂C₆H₃); a novel fluxional process involving phenyl substituent rotation and imino nitrogen inversion has been identified for 2 (R = t-Bu, 2,6-Me₂C₆H₃), the interpretation of which is supported by the X-ray crystal structure determination of 2 (R = t-Bu).     

Electron transfer in organometallic clusters: XIV. Crystal and electronic structures of the tricobalt carbon cluster (η5-C5H5)Fe[η5-C5H4-CCo3(CO)9] and the biscarbyne cluster (η5-C5H5)Fe[η5-C5H4CCo3(η5-C5H5)3CH]

The crystal and molecular structures of (η⁵-C₅H₅)Fe[η⁵--C₅H₄CCo₃(CO)₉] (1), Pna2₁, α 17.354, b 11.463, c 11.207 Å Z = 4, R = 0.053, R_w = 0.056 for 939 reflections (I>3σ(I)) at 293 K, and (η⁵-C₅H₅Fe[η⁵--C₅H₄CCo₃(η⁵C₅H₅)₃CH] (2), P2₁/n, a 13.807(9), b 11.254(4), c 13.991(9) Å, β 99.98(5)°, Z = 4, R = 0.033 and R_w = 0.033 for 3051 observed reflections (I>3σ(I)) at 180 K, have been determined by X-ray methods.The results provide a detailed characterisation of related tricobalt-carbon complexes directly bound to ferrocene residues. In 1 the ferrocenyl moiety tops the pyramidal CCo₃ cluster core, while in 2 the CCo₃C core is bipyramidal with a ferrocenyl substituent on one capping carbon atom and a hydrogen atom at the other. In both cases the ferrocenyl group is tilted towards one cobalt atom of the cluster core, a distortion believed to be the consequence of the non-degeneracy of the carbyne p(π) orbitals resulting from a cooperative π-interaction between the clusters and the ferrocenyl substituents.     

Coordination-unsaturated complexes of tris(cyclopentadienyl)samarium: Solvate (η5-C5H5)3Sm·OC4H8 and ionic salt [Li(Et2O)2][η5-C5H5)3Sm(μ-Cl)Sm(η5-C5H5)3]

X-ray structural analysis of a samarium triscyclopentadienyl complex, Cp₃Sm·OC₄H₈ (1), and a samarium ionic salt, [Li(Et₂O)₂][Cp₃Sm(-Cl)SmCp₃] (2), was carried out. In both compounds coordination saturation is achieved by coordination of the THF molecule (in1) or the Cl^– anion (in2) to the monomeric fragment Cp₃Sm. An unusual coordination of the Li⁺ cation was observed in complex2: it is bound to one of the ⁵-type cyclopentadienyl rings in addition to two ether molecules.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

30-Electron cationic iron- and cobalt-containing triple-decker complexes with a central cyclopentadienyl ligand. The first synthesis of the parent triple-decker iron complex with cyclopentadienyl ligands, [(η-C5H5)Fe(μ-η:η-C5H5)Fe(η-C5H5)]PF6

The parent 30-electron triple-decker iron complex with cyclopentadienyl ligands, [(η-C₅H₅)Fe(μ-η:η-C₅H₅)Fe(η-C₅H₅)]PF₆ (1), was prepared for the first time by visible-light irradiation of ferrocene and [(η-C₅H₅)Fe(η-C₆H₆)]PF₆ in CH₂Cl₂ at 0 °C. An analogous reaction performed with the use of (η-C₅H₅)Co(η-C₄Me₄) (2) instead of ferrocene afforded the thermally labile 30-electron cationic iron-cobalt triple-decker complex [(η-C₅H₅)Fe(μ-η:η-C₅H₅)Co(η-C₄Me₄)]PF₆. The latter reacted with compound 2 at 20 °C to form the symmetrical 30-electron cationic dicobalt triple-decker complex [(η-C₄Me₄)Co(μ-η:η-C₅H₅)Co(η-C₄Me₄)] PF₆.
