Unusual stabilization of cationic “M(η-allyl) (M = Pt, Pd) units by a dianionic cis-{Pt(C6F5)2(CCSiMe3)2} fragment

Chloride abstraction from [{M(η³ --- C₃H₅)Cl}_n] (M = Pt, n = 4 or M = Pd, n = 2) by (NBu₄)₂[cis-Pt(C₆F₅)₂(CCSiMe₃)₂] (1) gives rise to novel homo- and hetero-dinuclear zwitterionic derivatives (NBu₄) [{cis-Pt(C₆F₅)₂(CCSiMe₃)₂}M(η³-C₃H₅)] (M = Pt 2; M = Pd 3) which are formed by a M(η³-allyl)⁺ unit attached to both alkynyl ligands of the {cis-Pt(C₆F₅)₂(CCSiMe₃)₂}²⁻ fragment. The structure of 3 has been established by X-ray diffraction.     

Tieftemperatur-flüssigphase-fluorierung von (C6F5)2Te: Bildung von (C6F5)2TeF2, (C6F5)2TeF4 und (C6F11)2TeF4 [1]

(C₆F₅)₂Te reacts with elemental fluorine step by step to form the tellurium fluorides (C₆F₅)₂TeF₂, (C₆F₅)₂TeF₄ and (C₆F₁₁)₂TeF₄, which can be isolated in pure states. The intermediates (C₆F_11?2n)₂TeF₄ (n = 1,2) are detected spectroscopically. (C₆F₅)₂TeF₂ is also formed from the reaction of (C₆F₅)₂Te with XeF₂. The preparations, properties and ¹⁹F n.m.r. spectra of these new compounds are discussed, the mass and vibrational spectra are described.     

Interaction of half-sandwich alkylmolybdenum(III) complexes with B(C6F5)3. The X-ray structure of [CpMo(η-C4H6)(μ-Cl)(μ-CH2)(O)MoCp][CH3B(C6F5)3]

The reactions of the half-sandwich molybdenum(III) complexes CpMo(η⁴-C₄H₄R₂)(CH₃)₂, where Cp=η⁵-C₅H₅ and R=H or CH₃, with equimolar amounts of B(C₆F₅)₃ have been investigated in toluene. EPR monitoring shows the formation of an addition product which does not readily react with Lewis bases such as ethylene, pyridine, or PMe₃. The analysis of the EPR properties and the X-ray structure of a decomposition product obtained from dichloromethane, [CpMo(η⁴-C₄H₆)(μ-Cl)(μ-CH₂)(O)MoCp][CH₃B(C₆F₅)₃], indicate that the borane attack has occurred at the methyl position.     

Synthesis and reactivity of [N(C6H4Br)3][B(C6F5)4]: the X-ray crystal structure of [Fe(C5H5)2][B(C6F5)4]

A new chemical oxidant [N(4-C₆H₄Br)₃][B(C₆F₅)₄], was prepared and used to synthesize [Fe(C₅H₅)₂][B(C₆F₅)₄]. The crystal structure of [Fe(C₅H₅)₂][B(C₆F₅)₄] was determined.     

Ligand substitution in the heterometallic cluster Cp*IrOs3(μ-H)2(CO)10

The reactions of the heterometallic cluster Cp*IrOs₃(μ-H)₂(CO)₁₀ with phosphines, isonitriles and pyridine under TMNO activation afforded the substitution products Cp*IrOs₃(μ-H)₂(CO)_10−nL_n (n = 1, 2; L = PPh₃, P(OMe)₃, ^tBuNC, CyNC or py) in good yields. For the monosubstituted derivatives, the substitution site was exclusively at an osmium atom in an axial position for L = phosphine or phosphite. Spectroscopic evidence suggested the presence of isomers in solution for the PPh₃ derivative. In contrast, for L = isonitrile, the ligand occupied an equatorial site. In the disubstituted derivatives, the group 15 ligands were coordinated to two different osmium atoms, one each at an axial and an equatorial site. The isomerism and fluxional behaviour of some of these clusters have also been examined.     

B(C6F5)3-catalyzed metal-free hydrogenations of 2-quinolinecarboxylates

A metal-free hydrogenation of 2-quinolinecarboxylates has been realized by using 5?mol% of B(C₆F₅)₃ as catalyst. A variety of tetrahydroquinolines were obtained in 57–99% yields. An attempt for the asymmetric hydrogenation with chiral boron Lewis acids generated from chiral dienes afforded very low ee’s.     

A crystallographic and DFT study on Vaska-type trans-[Rh(CO)Cl(PR3)2] complexes containing flexible ligands: The molecular structure of trans-[Rh(CO)Cl{P(OC6H5)3}2]

An investigation into the effect of the flexibility of substituents on the disorder of the Cl-Rh-CO moiety in Vaska-type trans-[Rh(CO)Cl(PR₃)₂] complexes is presented. The influence of the packing of the complexes with PR₃ = P(CH₂C₆H₅)₃, P(OC₆H₅)₃, P(O-2-MeC₆H₄)₃ and P(O-2,6-Me₂C₆H₃)₃ was evaluated by comparing the X-ray structures with the results of DFT calculations on these complexes. Reasonable agreement between the calculated and molecular structures was found. A good agreement, however, was found between the calculated and crystallographic structures when comparing the coordination polyhedron around the Rh atom. The main difference between the calculated and solid state structures appeared to be in the orientation of the phenyl groups of the P-donor ligands.     

Structural investigations on new iron-acyl derivatives of B(C6F5)3

Reactions between [Fe(η-C₅H₅)(MeCO)(CO)(L)], L = PPh₃ (1), PMe₃ (2), PPhMe₂ (3), PCy₃ (4), CO (5), and B(C₆F₅)₃ give new complexes [Fe(η-C₅H₅){MeCOB(C₆F₅)₃}(CO)(L)] L = PPh₃ (7), PMe₃ (8), PPhMe₂ (9), PCy₃ (10), CO (11), where B(C₆F₅)₃ coordinates selectively to the O-acyl groups. Hydrolysis of 7 gives [Fe(η-C₅H₅){HOB(C₆F₅)₃}(CO)(PPh₃)] (6). The X-ray structures of 6, 8 and 11 have been determined. Calculations, using density functional theory, demonstrate that the charge transfer to the acyl group on Lewis acid coordination is more significant in the σ than the π system. Both effects lead to a lengthening of the acyl C-O bond thus π populations cannot be inferred from the distance changes.     

Synthesis and molecular structures of heptafluoropropylated fullerenes: C70(n-C3F7)8, C70(n-C3F7)6O, and C70(C3F7)4

Ampoule reactions of C₇₀ with n- and i-C₃F₇I were carried out at 250-310 °C. Two step HPLC separations allowed the isolation of several C₇₀(n-C₃F₇)_4-8 and C₇₀(i-C₃F₇)₄ compounds. Crystal and molecular structures of C₇₀(n-C₃F₇)₈-V, C₇₀(n-C₃F₇)₆O, C₇₀(n-C₃F₇)₄, and three isomers of C₇₀(i-C₃F₇)₄ have been determined by X-ray crystallography using synchrotron radiation. Molecular structures of the new compounds were compared with the known examples and discussed in terms of addition patterns and relative energies of their formation.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of Ir(C2H4)2(C5H7O2)

We report a new synthesis and characterization of Ir(C₂H₄)₂(C₅H₇O₂) [(acetylacetonato)-bis(η²-ethene)iridium(I)], prepared from (NH₄)₃IrCl₆ · H₂O in a yield of about 45%. The compound has been characterized by X-ray diffraction crystallography, infrared, Raman, and NMR spectroscopies and calculations at the level of density functional theory. Ir(C₂H₄)₂(C₅H₇O₂) is isostructural with Rh(C₂H₄)₂(C₅H₇O₂), but there is a substantial difference in the ethylene binding energies, with Ir-ethylene having a stronger interaction than Rh-ethylene; two ethylenes are bound to Ir with a binding energy of 94 kcal/mol and to Rh with a binding energy of 70 kcal/mol.

In addition to well-known dinuclear phenylselenolato palladium complexes, the reaction of [PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂] and NaSePh affords small amounts of novel trinuclear and hexanuclear complexes [Pd₃Se(SePh)₃(PPh₃)₃]Cl (1) and [Pd₆Cl₂Se₄(SePh)₂(PPh₃)₆] (2). Complex 1 is triclinic, P1?, a=13.6310(2), b=16.2596(2), c=16.9899(3) Å, α=83.1738(5), β=78.9882(5), γ=78.7635(5)°. Complex 2 is monoclinic, C2/c, a=25.7165(9), b=17.6426(8), c=27.9151(14) Å, β=110.513(2)°. There are no structural forerunners for 1, but the hexanuclear complex 2 is isostructural with [Pd₆Cl₂Te₄(TeR)₂(PPh₃)₆] (R=Ph, C₄H₃S) that have been observed as one of the products in the oxidative addition of R₂Te₂ to [Pd(PPh₃)₄]. Mononuclear palladium complexes may play a significant role as building blocks in the formation of the polynuclear complexes.

The reaction of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(P-P)₂] (P-P=2PPh₃, 2PMe₂Ph, dppf) [dppf=1,1^′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene] with cis-[M(C₆F₅)₂(PhCN)₂] (M=Ni, Pd) or cis-[Pt(C₆F₅)₂(THF)₂] (THF=tetrahydrofuran) afforded sulfide aggregates of the type [{Pt₂(μ₃-S)₂(P-P)₂}M(C₆F₅)₂] (M=Ni, Pd, Pt). X-ray crystal analysis revealed that [{Pt₂(μ₃-S)₂(dppf)₂}Pd(C₆F₅)₂], [{Pt₂(μ₃-S)₂(PPh₃)₂}Ni(C₆F₅)₂], [{Pt₂(μ₃-S)₂(PPh₃)₂}Pd(C₆F₅)₂] and [{Pt₂(μ₃-S)₂(PMe₂Ph)₂}Pt(C₆F₅)₂] have triangular M₃S₂ core structures capped on both sides by μ₃-sulfido ligands.

One isomer of C₆₀(i-C₃F₇)₈, three isomers of C₆₀(i-C₃F₇)₆, and the first mixed perfluoroalkylated fullerene, C₆₀(CF₃)₂(i-C₃F₇)₂, have been isolated by HPLC from a mixture prepared by reaction of C₆₀ with heptafluoroisopropyl iodide in a glass ampoule at 260-290 °C. The molecular structures of the four new compounds have been determined by means of X-ray single crystal diffraction partially also by use of synchrotron radiation.

Formation of perfluorinated polyphenylenes by multiple pentafluorophenylation using C6F5Si(CH3)3

Pentafluorophenylation of perfluoroarenes with C₆F₅Si(CH₃)₃ was investigated by using NMR and MALDI-TOF-MS techniques. Successive multiple pentafluorophenylation easily occurred not only on the para-position but also on the ortho-positions to provide perfluorinated p-phenylene and m-phenylene compounds. The perfluoroarenes having electron-withdrawing substituents provided oligo- to poly-(phenylene)s depending on the added amounts of C₆F₅Si(CH₃)₃, while the perfluoroarenes having electron-donor substituents gave H(C₆F₄)_nF polymers produced from C₆F₅H, which was the decomposed product of C₆F₅Si(CH₃)₃.

Bond data for I(II) are: GeS 2.212(1) and 2.261(1) » (2.227(2) and 2.240(2) »); GeC 1.933(4) ? 1.971(4), mean 1.945(5) » (1.931(7)?1.954(7), mean 1.943(4) »); GeSGe 111.2(1)° (110.7(1)°). The Ge bond lenghts are comparable to those in thiogermanates and do not indicate significant π-bond contributions.     

Metallacarboranes and triple-decker complexes with the (C4Me4)Pt fragment

Complex Cp∗PtCl₂ (Cp∗ = η-C₄Me₄) reacts with the carborane anions [7,8-C₂B₉H₁₁]²⁻ and [9-SMe₂-7,8-C₂B₉H₁₀]⁻ giving platinacarboranes Cp∗Pt(η-7,8-C₂B₉H₁₁) (1) and [Cp∗Pt(η-9-SMe₂-7,8-C₂B₉H₁₀)]⁺ (2), respectively.
