Anion effect on the thermolysis of double complexes [Co(NH3)6][Fe(CN)6] and [Co(NH3)6]4[Fe(CN)6]3

The thermolysis of complexes [Co(NH₃)₆][Fe(CN)₆] and [Co(NH_{3 6}]₄[Fe(CN)₆]₃ under an air or hydrogen atmosphere at 200, 350, and 500°C is studied. The composition and properties of thermolysis products are determined. The oxidative thermolysis yields mixtures of oxides of the central metals; the reductive thermolysis yields intermetallic compounds CoFe. The density of the complexes and the specific surface area of the intermetallic compounds are measured. Average particle sizes are calculated. The morphology and dispersion of the powders are dictated by the shape and density of the crystals of the precursor double salts and the thermolysis temperature. The thermolysis chemism in the oxidative and reductive atmospheres is discussed in the context of the nature of the complex anion. Original Russian Text ? S.I. Pechenyuk, D.P. Domonov, D.L.

Binary complex salts [Ru(NH₃)₅Cl][ReCl₆] and [Ru(NH₃)₅Cl]₂[ReCl₆]Cl₂ were synthesized and characterized. An X-ray diffraction analysis showed that they were isostructural with the previously obtained isoformula salts [Rh(NH₃)₅Cl][OsCl₆] and [Ir(NH₃)₅Cl]₂[PtCl₆]Cl₂, respectively. Thermolysis of these compounds under hydrogen and helium was studied. According to X-ray phase analysis data, bimetallic solid solutions Ru_0.67Re_0.33 and Ru_0.50Re_0.50 were the final products of thermolysis. Their unit cell parameters correspond to the characteristics of alloys with similar compositions. Original Russian Text Copyright ? 2009 by S. A. Martynova, K. V. Yusenko, I. V. Korolkov, I. A.

The coordinated CN⁻ and C₂O₄²⁻ groups then turn into NH₃, hydrocarbons, and CO₂. The dominant hydrocarbon is methane.     

The reactions of 2-benzoylpyridine with [RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)3] and [(C6H6)RuCl2]2

The reactions of [RuHCl(CO)(PPh₃)₃] and [(C₆H₆)RuCl₂]₂ with 2-benzoylpyridine have been examined, and two novel ruthenium(II) complexes – [RuCl(CO)(PPh₃)₂(C₅H₄NCOO)] and [RuCl₂(C₁₂H₉NO)₂] – have been obtained. The compounds have been studied by IR and UV–Vis spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography. The molecular orbital diagrams of the complexes have been calculated with the density functional theory (DFT) method. The spin-allowed singlet–singlet electronic transitions of the compounds have been calculated with the time-dependent DFT method, and the UV–Vis spectra of the compounds have been discussed on this basis.     

Thermally induced linkage isomerization in KCd[Fe(CN)6]

Heating KCd[Fe(CN)₆]-5H₂O, either isothermally or in a differential scanning calorimeter, results in dehydration and linkage isomerization of the cyanides. In accord with hard—soft acid—base predictions, the product contains cyanide C-bonded to Cd₂₊. The integrated intensity of the peaks corresponding to the CN stretching vibrations indicates that two of the cyanides change bonding mode more readily than the others. Cyanide isomerization does not occur when KCd[Fe(CN)₆]-5H₂O is dehydrated at room temperature under vacuum conditions.

The production of Cr(NH3)6 from the acid catalysed hydrolysis of Cr(NH3)5(NCO)

The rate of the reaction

has been investigated at 40–65°C with [HClO₄] varying from 0.04 to 0.6 M (μ = 0.6 M, NaClO₄). The observed rate law has the form: -d[Cr(NH₃)₅(NCO)²⁺]/dt = k_obs[Cr(NH₃)₅(NCO)²⁺] where k_obs = a[H+]²{1 + b[H⁺]²} and ^?1 at 55.0°C, a = 0.36 M^?1 s^?2 and b = 6.9 × 10^?3 M^?1 s^?1. The rate of loss of Cr(NH₃)₅(NCO)²⁺ increases with increasing acidity to a limiting value (at [H⁺] ～ 0.5 M) but the yield of Cr(NH₃)₆³⁺ decreases with increasing [H⁺] and increases with increasing temperature. In the kinetic studies the maximum yield of Cr(NH₃)₆³⁺ was 35% but a synthetic procedure has been developed to give a 60% yield.

Effect of ligands on the thermolysis of the double complexes [Co(NH3)6]2C2O4[Cu(C2O4)2]2 and [Co(NH3)6]Cl[Cu(C7H4O3)2]

The thermolysis of the complexes [Co(NH₃)₆]₂C₂O₄[Cu(C₂O₄)₂]₂ (I) and [Co(NH₃)₆]Cl[Cu(C₇H₄O₃)₂] (II) in air and hydrogen at 200, 350, and 500°C and the composition and properties of the thermolysis products are considered. The oxidative thermolysis of the complexes yields mixtures of cobalt and copper oxides, including mixed ones. The reductive thermolysis of the complexes yields a Co + Cu bimetallic powder in the case of compound I and a Co + Cu + C powder in the case of compound II. The thermal behavior of the complexes is governed by the nature of the ligand coordinated to the copper atom. The observed data are explicable in terms of the properties of this ligand. The chemistry of the oxidative and reductive thermolysis is discussed. Original Russian Text ? D.P. Domonov, S.I. Pechenyuk, N.L. Mikhailova, A.T.

The reactivity of [ReBr3(MeCN)(dppe)] towards gaseous nitric oxide. The X-ray structure of [ReBr3(MeCN)(dppe)] and [ReBr3(NO)(dppe)]0.57[ReOBr3(dppe)]0.43 and DFT calculations for [ReBr3(NO)(dppe)] and [ReOBr3(dppe)]

The [ReOBr₃(dppe)] (dppe=bis(diphenylophosphino)ethane) complex reacts with acetonitrile in the presence of excess of triphenylphpsphine to give a new monomeric nitrile rhenium(III) complex—[ReBr₃(MeCN)(dppe)] (1). The reaction of 1 with gaseous nitric oxide leads to the mixed [ReBr₃(NO)(dppe)]_0.57[ReOBr₃(dppe)]_0.43 complex (2) with rhenium atoms on +2 and +5 oxidation states. This paper presents the synthesis, spectroscopic characterisation and X-ray structure of 1 and 2. The geometries of [ReBr₃(NO)(dppe)] and [ReOBr₃(dppe)] have been optimized using the density functional theory (DFT) and the electronic transitions of [ReBr₃(NO)(dppe)] and [ReOBr₃(dppe)] have been calculated with the time-dependent DFT method (TDDFT). The UV–vis spectrum of 2 has been interpreted on the basis of the experimental data for [ReOBr₃(dppe)] and the calculated transitions for [ReOBr₃(dppe)] and [Re(NO)Br₃(dppe)].     

Selective formation of trans and cis(CH3CN) isomers of [Ru(bpy)(CO)2(CH3CN)2] (bpy=2,2-bipyridine) from [Ru(CO)2(CH3CN)3]2(PF6)2 using an electrochemical oxidation step

The selective in situ synthesis of trans and cis(CH₃CN)-[Ru(bpy)(CO)₂ (CH₃CN)₂]²⁺ isomers from the same [Ru(CO)₂ (CH₃CN)₃]₂²⁺ dimer precursor but using either an electrochemical-chemical or chemical-electrochemical process is described.     

Multiple ligand transfer reaction between [CpRu(L)(AN)2][PF6] (L=AN, CO, P(OMe)3; AN=acetonitrile) and CpFe(CO)L′X (L′=CO, PMe3, PMe2Ph, PMePh2, PPh3, P(OPh)3; X=Cl, Br, I)

Treatment of ruthenium complexes [CpRu(AN)₃][PF₆] (1a) (AN=acetonitrile) with iron complexes CpFe(CO)₂X (2a–2c) (X=Cl, Br, I) and CpFe(CO)L′X (6a–6g) (L′=PMe₃, PMe₂Ph, PMePh₂, PPh₃, P(OPh)₃; X=Cl, Br, I) in refluxing CH₂Cl₂ for 3 h results in a triple ligand transfer reaction from iron to ruthenium to give stable ruthenium complexes CpRu(CO)₂X (3a–3c) (X=Cl, Br, I) and CpRu(CO)L′X (7a–7g) (L′=PMe₃, PMe₂Ph, PMePh₂, PPh₃, P(OPh)₃; X=Br, I), respectively. Similar reaction of [CpRu(L)(AN)₂][PF₆] (1b: L=CO, 1c: P(OMe)₃) causes double ligand transfer to yield complexes 3a–3c and 7a–7h. Halide on iron, CO on iron or ruthenium, and two acetonitrile ligands on ruthenium are essential for the present ligand transfer reaction. The dinuclear ruthenium complex 11a [CpRu(CO)(μ-I)]₂ was isolated from the reaction of 1a with 6a at 0°C. Complex 11a slowly decomposes in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature to give 3a, and transforms into 7a by the reaction with PMe₃.     

Synthesis and molecular structure of cisoid and transoid isomers of [Re2(CO)6(1,1′-bis(indenylidene)] derived from the reaction of [Re2(CO)8(MeCN)2] and diazoindene

The compound [Re₂(CO)₈(MeCN)₂] reacts with diazoindene (C₉H₆N₂) while refluxing in THF to afford three dirhenium products in which C₉H₆N₂ is cleaved with loss of N₂ and with incorporation of the residual indenylidene group into the products. Two indenylidene groups are coupled in two diastereomers of [Re₂(CO)₆(μ,η⁵:η⁵-1,1′-C₁₈H₁₂)] where C₁₈H₁₂=bis(indenylidene). X-ray structures show that these isomers are related as RR/SS and RS isomers. These have the two Re(CO)₃ groups coordinated transoid and cisoid, respectively to a trans bis(indenylidene) bridge. The third product is the μ-indenylidene complex [Re₂(CO)₈(μ,η¹:η⁵-C₉H₆)], which was also structurally characterised by X-ray diffraction.

It crystallizes in the orthorhombic system， space group Pbca with a=14.0481(8)， b=9.0130(5)， c=18.626(1)?， V=2358.3(2)?³， Z=4， D_x=1.771g·cm^-3， μ=1.235mm^-1 and F(000)=1276. The final R factor is 0.0440 for 1434 observed reflections. The X-ray analysis revealed that the copper(Ⅱ) atom is coordinated by two picolinic ligands in the equatorial plane， while the two oxygen atoms of perchlorate occupy the axial positions of octahedron with lengthened Cu-O distances， resulting in a 4+2 elongated octahedral environment. In the compound， there also exist two protonated carbamide cations for charge balance. CCDC： 195354.
