Uranium versus Thorium: Synthesis and Reactivity of [η5-1,2,4-(Me3C)3C5H2]2U[η2-C2Ph2]

The synthesis, electronic structure, and reactivity of a uranium metallacyclopropene were comprehensively studied. Addition of diphenylacetylene (PhC≡CPh) to the uranium phosphinidene metallocene [η⁵-1,2,4-(Me₃C)₃C₅H₂]₂U=P-2,4,6-tBu₃C₆H₂ ( 1 ) yields the stable uranium metallacyclopropene, [η⁵-1,2,4-(Me₃C)₃C₅H₂]₂U[η²-C₂Ph₂] ( 2 ). Based on density functional theory (DFT) results the 5f orbital contributions to the bonding within the metallacyclopropene U-(η²-C=C) moiety increases significantly compared to the related Th^IV compound [η⁵-1,2,4-(Me₃C)₃C₅H₂]₂Th[η²-C₂Ph₂], which also results in more covalent bonds between the [η⁵-1,2,4-(Me₃C)₃C₅H₂]₂U²⁺ and [η²-C₂Ph₂]²⁻ fragments. Although the thorium and uranium complexes are structurally closely related, different reaction patterns are therefore observed. For example, 2 reacts as a masked synthon for the low-valent uranium(II) metallocene [η⁵-1,2,4-(Me₃C)₃C₅H₂]₂U^II when reacted with Ph₂E₂ (E=S, Se), alkynes and a variety of hetero-unsaturated molecules such as imines, ketazine, bipy, nitriles, organic azides, and azo derivatives. In contrast, five-membered metallaheterocycles are accessible when 2 is treated with isothiocyanate, aldehydes, and ketones.

Palladium-Catalyzed [3+2] and [2+2+2] Annulations of 4-Iodo-2-quinolones with Activated Alkynes through Selective C−H Activation

Triethylaluminum-Based Ferrocenylalanes. Synthesis and Crystal Structure of (η5−C5H5)Fe[η5−C5H4Al2(C2H5)4Cl]

Abstract

The trietheylaluminum based ferrocenylalane (η⁵?C₅H₅)Fe[η⁵?C₅H₄Al₂(C₂H₅)₄Cl] was prepared from the reaction of triethylaluminum with chloromercuriferrocene in toluene and characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group P 1 with unit cell dimensions a = 9.353(3) Å, b = 10.281(7) Å, c = 11.599(9) Å, α = 79.64(7)°, β = 69.41(6)°, γ = 84.33(4)°, and Z = 2 for D_c = 1.27 g cm^?3. Full-matrix least-squares refinement has led to a final R factor of 0.068 based on 1866 independent observed reflections. The two diethylaluminum units are bridged by a chlorine atom and one carbon atom of a cyclopentadienyl group, thus forming an Al-Cl-Al-C ring. The four-membered ring is planar to within 0.02 Å. The Al-Cl distances are 2.404(4) Å and 2.266(5) Å. The Al-Cl-Al angle is 78.9(1)° while the Al-C-Al angle is 91.3(4)°. No significant aluminum-iron interaction is observed (Al… Fe = 3.137(4) Å).
