Derivate des borabenzols: XVI. (Borinato)(cyclobutadien)cobalt-komplexe mit tetramethyl- und tetraphenylcyclobutadien-liganden. Synthese,elektrophile aromatische substitution und ringgliedsubstitution am borinato-liganden

The preparation of (borinato)(cyclobutadiene)cobalt complexes from the reactions of Co(C₅H₅BR)(1,5-C₈H₁₂) with acetylenes C₂R′₂ and of [C₄(CH₃)₄]Co(CO)₂I with Tl(C₅H₅BR) (R,R′ = CH₃, C₆H₅) is described.In electrophilic substitution reactions Co(C₅H₅BCH₃)[C₄(CH₃)₄] (IVa) is more reactive than ferrocene. CF₃CO₂D effects H/D-exchange in the α-position of the borabenzene ring within a few minutes at ambient temperature and in the γ-position within less than four hours Friedel-Crafts acetylation with CH₃COCl/AsCl₃ in CH₂Cl₂ affords the 2-acetyl and the 2,6-diacetyl derivative of IVa. With the more active catalyst AlCl₃, ring-member substitution is effected to give cations [Co(arene)C₄(CH₃)₄]⁺ (arene = C₆H₅CH₃, 2-CH₃C₆H₄COCH₃). Vilsmeier formylation gives the 2-formyl derivative of IVa. The acyl derivatives Co(2-R¹CO-6-R²C₅H₃BCH₃)[C₄(CH₃)₄] (R¹ = CH₃, R² = H, CH₃CO and R¹ = R² = H) transform to the corresponding cations [Co(ortho-R¹R²C₆H₄)C₄(CH₃)₄]⁺ in superacidic media. The mechanistic relationship between acylation and ring-member substitution is discussed in detail.     

NMR investigation of bis(2,3-alkanedione dioximato)-bis(pyridine)cobalt(III) iodide complexes: 1H and 13C NMR spectra and 13C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements

The complexes of trans-[Co(III)(R,CH₃-dioxH)₂(py)₂]I2 (R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) were investigated in solution by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra and ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements. The ¹H and ¹³C-resonances of the R = C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) groups were shifted to higher field than those of the free ligands by the complexation; it was attributable to the ring current shielding due to the axial pyridine ligands of the complexes. ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation times were interpreted as due to movement of the axial pyridine ligands as if they twist around the CoN (pyridine nitrogen) bond axis and the above R groups were moving segmentally. These segmental movements allowed the R groups to approach closely toward the axial pyridine ring plane to experience the ring current shielding.     

Crystal and molecular structure of [η5-C5(CH3)5]Co(O2C6H4), a cobalt(o-catecholate) complex

[η⁵-C₅(CH₃)₅]Co(O₂C₆H₄) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma with a 12.942(4), b 12.902(4), c 8.543(3) Å, V 1426(1) ų, and Z = 4. Least-squares refinement of 1688 independent observed reflections, F(_obs) ? 2.5σ(F_obs), gives R_F 3.79 and R_wF 3.72%. The cyclopentadienyl ring contains two short (1.412(3) Å) and three longer (〈av〉 1.430(4) Å) CC bond lenghts, consistent with a slight preference for diolefin bonding. The O₂C₆H₄ fragment is best described as a catecholate with a CO bond distance of 1.338(3), and a CoO distance of 1.837(2) Å.     

Diorganotin(IV) derivatives of N-phthaloyl amino acids

Twentyfour complexes of the general formulae (R₂SnL₂ and R₂(L)SnOSn(L)R₂ (L = N-phthaloyl derivative of l-leucine, dl-alanine and l-phenylalanine; R = CH₃, C₅H₅, n-C₄H₉) and n-C₈H₁₇) have been prepared by reacting ligand and dialkyltin(IV) oxide in 2/1 and 1/1 (ligand/metal) molar ratio. These complexes have been characterised by elemental analysis and structures assigned with the help of infrared, ¹H NMR and ¹¹⁹Sn Mössbauer spectroscopy. These data support six-coordinated distorted octahedral structures with two alkyl groups in trans positions.     

The enthalpies of formation of CH3Mn(CO)5 and of CH3Re(CO)5, and the strengths of the CH3Mn and CH3Re bonds

From measurements of the heats of iodination of CH₃Mn(CO)₅ and CH₃Re(CO)₅ at elevated temperatures using the ‘drop’ microcalorimeter method, values were determined for the standard enthalpies of formation at 25° of the crystalline compounds: ΔH^o_f[CH₃Mn(CO)₅, c] = ?189.0 ± 2 kcal mol^?1 (?790.8 ± 8 kJ mol^?1), ΔH^o_f[Ch₃Re(CO)₅,c] = ?198.0 ± kcal mol^?1 (?828.4 ± 8 kJ mo^?1). In conjunction with available enthalpies of sublimation, and with literature values for the dissociation energies of MnMn and ReRe bonds in Mn₂(CO)₁₀ and Re₂(CO)₁₀, values are derived for the dissociation energies: D(CH₃Mn(CO)₅) = 27.9 ± 2.3 or 30.9 ± 2.3 kcal mol^?1 and D(CH₃Re(CO)₅) = 53.2 ± 2.5 kcal mol^?1. In general, irrespective of the value accepted for D(MM) in M₂(CO)₁₀, the present results require that, D(CH₃Mn) = $\text{1}\text{2}$D(MnMn) + 18.5 kcal mol^?1 and D(CH₃Re) = $\text{1}\text{2}$D(ReRe) + 30.8 kcal mol^?1.     

Spectroscopic and magnetic properties of a new class of two-dimensional bitriazole compounds: The X-ray structure of poly-bis(thiocyanato-N)-bis-μ-(4,4′-bis-1,2,4-triazole-N1,N1′)-cobalt(II) monohydrate

The synthesis of a new class of two-dimensional triazole compounds is described, including the crystal structure of [Co(NCS)₂(btr)₂]H₂O [btr stands for 4,4′-bis-1,2,4-triazole (C₄H₄N₆)]. Crystals are monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 11.159(1) Å, b = 13.047(4) Å, c = 12.993(3) Å, β = 91.81(2)°, Z = 4. The structure has been solved by Fourier and direct methods and refined by full-matrix least squares to R = 0.0229, R_w = 0.0283. The structure consists of layers of six-coordinated cobalt atoms, each having two trans-oriented N-bonded thiocyanate groups [CoNCS 2.098(2) Å] and linked together in the equatorial plane by single bridges of btr to a two-dimensional network. The btr ligand coordinates through its N(1) and N(1′) atoms [CoN 2.128(1) and 2.142(1) Å]. The intralayer CoCo distance is 9.207(2) Å, and the inter-layer CoCo distance is 8.584(1) Å. The magnetic susceptibilities of the compound and of the isostructural nickel and iron compounds are discussed. The iron compound exhibits a high-spin-low-spin crossover at liquid-nitrogen temperatures, as shown by magnetic susceptibility.     

Bis(fluorbenzoyloxy)methylphosphanoxide

Bis(fluorbenzoyloxy)methyl phosphane oxides CH₃P(O)[OC(O)R]₂ [R = C₆H₄2F (1), C₆H₄3F (2), C₆H₄4F (3), C₆H₃2,6F₂ (4), C₆H2,3,5,6F₄ (5)] were prepared by treating silver salts of carboxylic acids AgOC(O)R with CH₃P(O)C?₂ (IR-, ¹H-, ¹⁹?F-and ³¹P{¹H}-NMR-data). The mixed anhydrides 1–5 show unusual thermal stability at room temperature. Stability against hydrolysis decreases with increasing number of fluorine-atoms. The reaction of R′P(O)C?₂ [R′ = CH₃, C₆H₅, (CH₃)₃C] with M^IOC(O)R_F [R_F = CF₃, C₂F₅, C₆F₅; M^I = Ag^I, Na^I T?^I] was investigated.     

Hydrogen bonding and halogen bonding co-existing in the reaction of heptafluorobenzyl iodide with N,N,N,N-tetramethylethylene diamine

Two novel assembling systems 3 and 4, with the structures of C₆F₅CF₂⁻?H⁺N(Me)₂CH₂CH₂(Me₂)N⁺H?⁻CF₂C₆F₅ and C₆F₅CF₂I?N(Me)₂CH₂CH₂(Me)₂N?ICF₂C₆F₅, respectively, have been generated from the solution of heptafluorobenzyl iodide 1 and N,N,N^′,N^′-tetramethylethylenediamine 2 in dichloromethane. Their structures have been characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, NMR and IR spectroscopy. Intermolecular N?I halogen bond and F?H hydrogen bond are revealed to be the driving forces for their formation.     

N-arylammonio- and N-pyridinium-substituted derivatives of dodecahydro-closo-dodecaborate(2-)

We report two methods for preparing N-arylammonio, N-pyridyl and N-arylamino dodecaborates: heating of the tetrabutylammonium salt of dodecahydro-closo-dodecaborate(2-) with aryl and pyridyl amines, or nucleophilic attack of [closo-B₁₂H₁₁NH₂]²⁻ on a strongly deactivated aromatic system. With aryl amines we obtained [1-closo-B₁₂H₁₁N(R¹)₂C₆H₅]⁻ (R¹ = H, CH₃). With 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine, [1-closo-(B₁₂H₁₁NC₅H₄)-4-N(CH₃)₂]⁻, with a bond between the boron and the pyridinium nitrogen, was obtained. A presumable mechanism for this kind of reactions is reported. By nucleophilic substitution, two products, [1-closo-(B₁₂H₁₁NHC₆H₃)-3,4-(CN)₂]²⁻ and [1-closo-(B₁₂H₁₁NHC₆H₂)-2-(NO₂)-4,5-(CN)₂]²⁻, were formed with 4-nitrophthalonitrile and 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene gave [1-closo-(B₁₂H₁₁NHC₆H₃)-2,4-(NO₂)₂]²⁻. For [1-closo-B₁₂H₁₁N(CH₃)₂C₆H₅]⁻ and [1-closo-(B₁₂H₁₁NHC₆H₃)-2,4-(NO₂)₂]²⁻ single crystal X-ray structures were obtained.     

Bis(dialkylmetal)-N,N′-dimethyloxamides of aluminium,gallium and indium,preparation, physical and spectroscopic properties

The reaction of N,N′-dimethyloxamide with trialkyl derivatives of aluminium, gallium, and indium yields bis(dialkylmetal) compounds of structural formula (R₂M)₂[O₂C₂(NCH₃)₂] (M = Al, Ga, In; and R = CH₃, C₂H₅). The M₂O₂C₂N₂ skeleton of these monomeric products forms an almost planar system of two fused five-membered rings, with S₂ symmetry. For the dimethylgallium and dimethylindium derivatives, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra show the presence of two conformational isomers which differ in the orientation of the N-methyl relative to the two metal-bound CH₃ groups.     

Convergent procedure for the synthesis of trifluoromethyl-containing N-(pyridinyl-triazolyl)pyrimidin-2-amines

This study describes a simple and efficient procedure to synthesize a novel series of fourteen 4-substituted N-(5-pyridinyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidin-2-amines, where the 4-substituents are H, CH₃, C₆H₅, 4-FC₆H₄, 4-CH₃C₆H₄, 4-CH₃OC₆H₄ and 2-Furyl; from the cyclocondensation reaction of N-[5-(pyridinyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl]guanidines with 4-alkoxy-4-alkyl(aryl/heteroaryl)-1,1,1-trifluoroalk-3-en-2-ones. The reactions were carried out in ethanol under reflux for 18 h and led to 40-68% yields. N-(Pyridyl-triazolyl)guanidine precursors were further obtained from reactions of cyanoguanidine with nicotinic or isonicotinic acid hydrazides and the halogenated enones from trifluoroacetylation of enolethers or acetals.     

1,2-Hydrogen abstraction: the characterization of [Li(CH3)2N(CH2)2N(CH3)2]2 [C12H8]. A dilithium complex obtained by the 1,2 deprotonation of acenaphthylene

The reaction of n-butyllithium chelated to N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) with acenaphthene results in 1,2-hydrogen abstraction to give the dilithio complex of acenaphthylene, [Li(CH₃)₂N(CH₂)₂N(CH₃)₂]₂[C₁₂H₈]. This compound was isolated as a crystalline product and characterized by single crystal X-ray crystallography. [Li(CH₃)₂N(CH₂)₂N(CH₃)₂]₂[C₁₂H₈] crystallizes with a unit cell of a = 23.164(10), b = 25.609(10) and c = 8.495(6) Å in the orthorhombice space group Fdd2. The calculated density is 1.04 g cm^?3 for 8 molecules per unit cell. The observed density is 1.03(4) g cm^?3. 1412 unique reflections were measured on a full circle X-ray diffractometer. The light atom, acentric structure was solved by the symbolic addition technique and refined by full matrix least squares to R₁ = 0.058 and R₂ = 0.056.The acenaphthylene fragment is nearly planar. The effect of charge transfer is evidenced in the short C(3)C(4) bond distance of 1.30(3) Å and the lengthening of the C(1)C(2) bond length from the localized olefinic bond distance of 1.34 to 1.42(2) Å. The two LiTMEDA fragments are coordinated to both sides of the five membered carbon atom ring of the acenaphthylene group.     

Strength of the PtCS2 bond in Pt(PPh3)2(CS2)

The enthalpy of the reaction: Pt(PPh₃)₂(CH₂CH₂)(cryst.) + CS₂(g) → Pt(PPh₃)₂(CS₂)(cryst.) + CH₂CH₂(g) has been determined as ΔH = ? 4.40 ± 2.2 kJ mol^?1 from solution calorimetry, and the bond dissociation energy D(PtCS₂) shown to be slightly greater than D(PtC₂H₄).     

Photochemistry of methyl- and n1-benzyl-n5-cyclopentadienyltricarbonyltungstein(II)

Irradiation of solutions of n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃R (R  CH₃n1-CH₂C₆H₅) in cyclohexane at ca. 310490 nm leads to the formation of [n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃]₂ and methane and of n⁵-C₅H₅W₅(CO)₂(n³-CH₂C₆H₅) and some [n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃]₂, respectively. When the irradiation is carried out in the presence of excess P(C₆H₅)₃, the photoproducts are n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂[P(C₆H₅)₃]CH₃ (R  CH₃) and n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂(n₃-CH₂C₆H₅) and trace [n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃]₂ (R  n¹-CH₂C₆H₅). Photolysis of the n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃R in the presence of benzyl chloride affords n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃Cl (R  CH₃) and both n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂(n³-CH₂C₂H₅) and n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃Cl (R  n¹-CH₂C₆H₅), the relative amounts of the latter products depending on the quantity of added C₆H₅CH₂Cl. Irradiation of n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃-CH₃ in the presence of both P(C₆h₅)₃ and C₆H₅CH₂Cl affords n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂-[P(C₆H₅)₃]CH₃, but no n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃Cl. It is proposed that the primary photo-reaction in these transformations is dissociation of a CO group from n⁵-C₅H₅W-(CO)₃R to generate n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂R, which can either combine with L to form a stable 18 electron complex, n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂(L)R (L  CO, P(C₅H₅)₃; LR  n³-CH₂C₆H₅), or lose the group R in a competing, apparently slower step. This proposal receives support from the observation that, light intensifies being equal, n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃CH₃ undergoes a considerably faster photoconversion to [n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃]₂ under argon than under carbon monoxide.     

Cu(II) and Pd(II) complexes of N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)aminopyridines

N-(2-Hydroxybenzyl)aminopyridines (Lⁱ) react with Cu(II) and Pd(II) ions to form complexes in the compositions Cu(Lⁱ)₂(CH₃COO)₂ · nH₂O (n = 0, 2, 4), Pd(Lⁱ)₂Cl₂ · nC₂H₅OH (n = 0, 2) and Pd(L²)₂Cl₂ · 2H₂O. In the complexes, the ligands are neutral and monodentate which coordinate through pyridinic nitrogen. Crystal data of the complexes obtained from 2-amino pyridine derivative have pointed such a coordinating route and comparison of the spectral data suggests the validity of similar complexation modes of other analog ligands. Cu(II) complex of N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-2-aminopyridine (L¹), [Cu(L¹)₂(CH₃COO)₂] has slightly distorted square planar cis-mononuclear structure which is built by two oxygen atoms of two monodentate carboxylic groups disposed in cis-position and two nitrogen atoms of two pyridine rings. The remaining two oxygen atoms of two carboxylic groups form two Cu and H bridges containing cycles which joint at same four coordinated copper(II) ion. IR and electronic spectral data and the magnetic moments as well as the thermogravimetric analyses also specify on mononuclear octahedric structure of complexes [Cu(L²)₂(CH₃COO)₂ · 2H₂O] and [Cu(L³)₂(CH₃COO)₂ · 4H₂O] where L² and L³ are N-(2-hydroxybenzyl)-2- or 3-aminopyridines, respectively.     

Organozin- und organobleiderivate von N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)glycin

Organotin and organolead derivatives of N-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)glycine (HDNG), R₃MDNG (M = Sn, Pb; R = CH₃, C₆H₅) and (C₆H₅)₂Pb(DNG)₂, have been prepared from R₃MOH or [(C₆H₅)₂PbO]_n and HDNG, respectively. (CH₃)₃PbDNG was also obtained from (CH₃)₃PbBr and TlDNG. According to spectroscopic data R₃M groups in R₃MDNG are essentially planar and are bridged by bidentate carboxylate groups of DNG. NH does not coordinate to M. Penta-coordination is also indicated by Mössbauer data of R₃SnDNG. Also for (C₆H₅)₂Pb(DNG)₂ a chain structure but with hexacoordination of Pb is proposed. The compounds are monomeric in solution.     

Reactions of (η5-C5H5)2Tir compounds with organic cyanides

The syntheses and properties of the titanium(III) complexes Cp₂Tir · R′CN (R = C₆H₅, o-, m-, p-CH₃C₆H₄, CH₂C₆H₅, C₆F₅, Cl; R′ = CH₃, t-C₄H₉, C₆H₅, o-CH₃C₆H₄, 2,6-(CH₃)₂C₆H₃) are described. In the complexes the nitrogen atom of the cyanide ligands is coordinated to the metal. The thermal stabilities of the complexes depend markedly on R and R′; on heating they undergo a novel reaction in which two cyanide ligands are coupled by formation of a CC bond, while the metal is oxidized to titanium(IV).     

Synthesis of pyridinium ylide complexes of methylcobaloxime and crystal structure determination of [benzoyl(1-pyridinio)methanide]bis(dimethylglyoximato)methylcobalt benzene solvate

Summary Pyridinium ylide complexes of methylcobaloxime were synthesized by the treatment of an ylide with Co(Hdmg)₂ Me(SMe₂). The crystal structure of one of the complexes, [Co(Hdmg)₂Me C₅H₅NCHCOPh]C₆H₆ has been determined by x-ray diffraction techniques. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, witha = 10.456(5),b = 11.079(4),c = 24.58(1) Å, = 99.58(6), V = 2808 ų, Z = 4. The Co-C (ylide) bond distance is 2.18 Å and Co-C(methyl) 2.04 Å. C(ylide)-Co-C(methyl) bond angle is 174.9°. The crystal, i.r. and¹H n.m.r. data suggest that thetrans-influence of the ylide ligands is larger than that of py, Melm, OH₂ or PPh₃.     

Steric control in the stereospecific complexation of chiral α-olefins to platinum(II)

The complexes trans-dichloro[R(CH₃)C^*HCH=CH₂](pyridine)platinum-(II), R = C₂H₅, i-C₃H₇, t-C₄H₉, have been prepared and their ¹H NMR and CD spectra investigated. The two diastereomers formed in the complexation of the chiral α-olefin to Pt^II are present in different concentrations in solution, the diastereomer of opposite absolute configuration at the two chiral centres being the prevailing one. The extent of stereoselectivity, evaluated both by NMR and CD, varies from 32% to 75% by changing the bulkiness of the R group. The preferred conformation of the two diastereomers for each complex has been established by NMR, taking into account the deshielding effect on the protons bound to saturated carbon atoms as well as J(HH) and J(PtH) coupling constants.     

Basische metalle : IX. Synthese und kristallstruktur von C5H5Co(PMe3)CS2. Reaktionen zu zweikernkomplexen mit Co(SCS)Cr- und Co(SCS)Mn-Brückenbindungen

C₅H₅Co(PMe₃)CS₂ (IV) is formed in practically quantitative yield in the reaction of C₅H₅Co(PMe₃)₂ (I) or the heterobinuclear complex C₅H₅(PMe₃)Co(CO)₂Mn(CO)C₅H₄Me (III) with CS₂. The crystal structure shows that the carbon disulfide bonds as a dihapto ligand through the carbon and one sulfur atom (S(2)) (CoC = 1.89, CoS(2) = 2.24 Å, S(2)CS(1) = 141.2°). The two CS bond lengths in IV (CS(2) = 1.68, CS(1) =1.60 Å) are greater than in free CS₂ (1.554Å) which is in agreement with the strong π-acceptor character of h²-CS₂ as shown in the spectroscopic data. IV reacts with Cr(CO)₅THF and C₅H₅Mn(CO)₂THF to give the complexes C₅H₅(PMe₃)Co(SCS)Cr(CO)₅ (V) and C₅H₅(PMe₃)Co(SCS)Mn(CO)₂C₅H₅ (VI) respectively, in which the sulfur atom S(1) that is not bound to cobalt coordinates to the 16-electron fragments Cr(CO)₅ and Mn(CO)₂C₅H₅. The spectroscopic data of IV, V and VI are discussed.
