Activation of Molecular Hydrogen by Bis(η5,η1‐pentafulvene)‐titanium Complexes – Efficient Formation of Titanium(III)hydrides

The synthesis and crystal structures of two dinuclear titanocene hydride complexes are reported. Both complexes, namely bis(η⁵‐(di‐para‐tolylmethyl)cyclopentadienyl)titanium hydride dimer, [(η⁵‐C₂₀H₁₉)₂Ti(μ‐H)]₂ ( 2a ), and bis(η⁵‐2‐adamantylcyclopentadienyl)‐titanium hydride dimer, [(η⁵‐C₁₅H₁₉)₂Ti(μ‐H)]₂ ( 2b ), are formed via activation of molecular hydrogen by the corresponding bis(η⁵,η¹‐pentafulvene)titanium complexes 1a and 1b at ambient temperatures and pressures in high yields. The hydride complexes 2a and 2b exhibit planar [Ti₂H₂] cores and, as a result of the heterolytic cleavage of molecular hydrogen, substituted Cp Ligands were formed during the reaction.     

Synthesis and reactivity of naphthalene sandwich complexes of molybdenum. X-ray structure of [Mo(η6-naphthalene) {P(OMe)3}3] and [Mo(H)(η6-naphthalene){P(OMe)3}3][BF4]

The sandwich complexes bis(η⁶-naphthalene)molybdenum(0) ( 1 ), bis(η⁶-1-methylnaphthalene)molybdenum(0) ( 2 ), and bis(η⁶-1,4-dimethylnaphthalene)molybdenum(0) ( 3 ) are synthesized by cocondensation of Mo-atoms with the naphthalene ligands. Complexes 1–3 are also obtained by reduction of MoCl₅ or MoCl₄. 2THF with highly activated Mg in the presence of the naphthalene ligands. Mg was activated by sublimation of the metal in a simple rotating solution reactor. Complex 2 exists as a mixture of regio- and stereoisomers. Three regioisomers, 3a–c , are formed in reactions of Mo-atoms with 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene, whereas 3a , the isomer with the Mo-atom coordinated to the unsubstituted rings, is formed selectively via the reductive method. The ligands in 1–3 are highly labile. CO displaces both naphthalene rings in 2 and 3 to give [Mo(CO)₆], while PF₃, P(OMe)₃, and PMe₃ displace only one coordinated naphthalene in 1 to yield the [Mo(η⁶-naphthalene)L₃] complexes 4–6 . In toluene, arene exchange is a competitive process in reactions of 1 with PF₃. Complexes 5 (L = P(OMe)₃) and 6 (L = PMe₃) react with HBF₄ to give the cationic metal hydride complexes 8 and 9 . The X-ray crystal structures of [Mo(η⁶-naphthalene) {P(OMe)₃}₃] ( 5 ) and [Mo(H)(η⁶-naphthalene) {P(OMe)₃}₃][BF₄] ( 8 ) are reported.     

A three‐dimensional CdII coordination polymer constructed from 1,1′‐biphenyl‐2,2′,5,5′‐tetracarboxylate and 1,4‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)benzene ligands

The title coordination polymer, poly[[aqua(μ₅‐1,1′‐biphenyl‐2,2′,5,5′‐tetracarboxylato)bis[μ₂‐1,4‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)benzene]dicadmium(II)] dihydrate], {[Cd₂(C₁₆H₆O₈)(C₁₂H₁₀N₄)₂(H₂O)]·2H₂O}_n, was crystallized from a mixture of 1,1′‐biphenyl‐2,2′,5,5′‐tetracarboxylic acid (H₄bpta), 1,4‐bis(1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)benzene (1,4‐bib) and cadmium nitrate in water–dimethylformamide. The crystal structure consists of two crystallographically independent Cd^II cations, with one of the Cd^II cations possessing a slightly distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry. The second Cd^II centre is coordinated by carboxylate O atoms and imidazole N atoms from two separate 1,4‐bib ligands, displaying a distorted octahedral CdN₂O₄ geometry. The completely deprotonated bpta⁴⁻ ligand, exhibiting a new coordination mode, bridges five Cd^II cations to form one‐dimensional chains viaμ₃‐η¹:η²:η¹:η² and μ₂‐η¹:η¹:η⁰:η⁰ modes, and these are further linked by 1,4‐bib ligands to form a three‐dimensional framework with a (4².6⁴)(4.6²)(4³.6⁵.7²) topology. The structure of the coordination polymer is reinforced by intermolecular hydrogen bonding between carboxylate O atoms, aqua ligands and crystallization water molecules. The solid‐state photoluminescence properties were investigated and the complex might be a candidate for a thermally stable and solvent‐resistant blue fluorescent material.     

A twofold interpenetrating three‐dimensional CdII coordination framework: poly[[μ2‐1,3‐bis(2‐methyl‐1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)benzene](μ3‐5‐nitrobenzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylato)cadmium(II)]

A twofold interpenetrating three‐dimensional Cd^II coordination framework, [Cd(C₈H₃NO₆)(C₁₄H₁₄N₄)]_n, has been prepared and characterized by IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, thermal analysis and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The asymmetric unit consists of a divalent Cd^II atom, one 1,3‐bis(2‐methyl‐1H‐imidazol‐1‐yl)benzene (1,3‐BMIB) ligand and one fully deprotonated 5‐nitrobenzene‐1,3‐dicarboxylate (NO₂‐BDC²⁻) ligand. The coordination sphere of the Cd^II atom consists of five O‐donor atoms from three different NO₂‐BDC²⁻ ligands and two imidazole N‐donor atoms from two different 1,3‐BMIB ligands, forming a distorted {CdN₂O₅} pentagonal bipyramid. The NO₂‐BDC ligand links three Cd^II atoms via a μ₁‐η¹:η¹ chelating mode and a μ₂‐η²:η¹ bridging mode. The title compound is a twofold interpenetrating 3,5‐connected network with the {4².6⁵.8³}{4².6} topology. In addition, the compound exhibits fluorescence emissions in the solid state at room temperature.     

Studies in negative ion mass spectrometry: XIV—Electron attachment reactions of a series of η6-arenetricarbonylchromium(O) complexes

Electron attachment reactions of a series of (η⁶-arene)tricarbonylchromium(O) complexes have been examined in the gas phase. The electron capture process has been shown to be influenced by the structure of the η⁶-arene ligand and its substituents. Whereas (η⁶-benzene)- and (η⁶-mesitylene)tricarbonylchromium(O) undergo dissocative electron capture, or reductive decarbonylation, yielding [M? CO]^?˙ ions of highest abundance in their negative ion mass spectra, [η⁶-(2,2-dimethylindan-1,3-dione)]tricarbonylchromium(O) forms a molecular negative ion which undergoes sequential CO eliminations and finally a demetallation to give the arene radical ion. A localization of charge on the coordinated arene ligand is proposed for the formation of [M]^?˙ in this case. (η⁶-Methylbenzoate)tricarbonylchromium(O) also forms a molecular negative ion by secondary electron attachment which decomposes by simultaneous and consecutive eliminations of up to four CO molecules. The elucidation of a mechanism and sequence for these CO eliminations has been achieved by synthesizing and examining the negative ion mass spectrum of [η⁶-(C₆H₅·¹³CO₂Me)]Cr(CO)₃. The first CO loss in the principal fragmentation pathway occurs solely from the –Cr(CO)₃ group of [M]^?˙. The effect of para substituent groups on the stabilities of molecular negative ions and their fragmentations has been ascertained using a series of para-substituted (η⁶-methylbenzoate)tricarbonylchromium(O) compounds containing the groups NH₂, OH, OCH₃, CL and COOMe. The stabilities of the [M]^?˙ ions have been rationalized in terms of the Hammett and Taft parameters σ_P, σ_I, σ_R^P, σ_P^O and σ_R^O. The overall electronic substituent effect transmitted to the carbonyl groups of the –Cr(CO)₃ unit involves both resonance and inductive components. In this series of compounds the stability of [M]^?˙ decreases as the electron withdrawing capacities of the para substituents increase.

X‐ray structure determinations on single crystals of (Ph₄P)₂[Pt(N₃)₆] ( 1 ) (triclinic, space group P1, a = 10.175(1), b = 10.516(1), c = 12.380(2) Å, α = 87.822(9), β = 73.822(9), γ = 67.987(8)°, Z = 1) and (Ph₄As)₂[Pt(N₃)Cl₅] · HCON(CH₃)₂ ( 2 ) (triclinic, space group P1, a = 10.068(2), b = 11.001(2), c = 23.658(5) Å, α = 101.196(14), β = 93.977(15), γ = 101.484(13)°, Z = 2) have been performed. The bond lengths are Pt–N = 2.088 ( 1 ), 2.105 ( 2 ) and Pt–Cl = 2.318 Å ( 2 ). The approximate linear azido ligands with N^α–N^β–N^γ‐angles = 173.5–174.6° are bonded with Pt–N^α–N^β‐angles = 116.4–121.0°. In the vibrational spectra the PtCl stretching vibrations of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(N₃)Cl₅] are observed at 318–345, the PtN stretching modes of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(N₃)₆] at 401–428 and of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(N₃)Cl₅] at 408–413 cm^–1. The mixtures (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(¹⁵NN₂)_n(N₂¹⁵N)_6–n], n = 0–6 and (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(¹⁵NN₂)Cl₅]/(n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(N₂¹⁵N)Cl₅] exhibit ¹⁵N‐isotopic shifts up to 20 cm^–1. Based on the molecular parameters of the X‐ray determinations the vibrational spectra are assigned by normal coordinate analysis. The average valence force constants are f_d(PtCl) = 1.93, f_d(PtN^α) = 2.38 and f_d(N^αN^β, N^βN^γ) = 12.39 mdyn/Å. In the ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR spectrum of [Pt(N₃)_nCl_6–n]^2–, n = 0–6 downfield shifts with the increasing number of azido ligands are observed in the range 4766–5067 ppm. The ¹⁵N NMR spectrum of (n‐Bu₄N)₂[Pt(¹⁵NN₂)_n(N₂¹⁵N)_6–n], n = 0–6 exhibits by ¹⁵N–¹⁹⁵Pt coupling a pseudotriplett at –307.5 ppm. Due to the isotopomeres n = 0–5 for terminal ¹⁵N six well‐resolved signals with distances of 0.03 ppm are observed in the low field region at –201 to –199 ppm.     

η2(π)‐Coordination of a Bis‐Phosphonio‐Benzophospholide Cation: A Novel Complexation Mode for Unsaturated Phosphorus Heterocycles

The bis‐phosphonio‐benzo[c]phospholide tetraphenylborate 4 [BPh₄] reacts with CpCo(C₂H₄)₂ to form a chelate complex [Co(η⁵–Cp)(κ²P,η²(P=C) –4 )][BPh₄] ( 6 [BPh₄]) which was characterized by means of spectroscopic techniques and a single crystal X‐ray diffraction study. The observed η²(π)‐coordination of the benzophospholide moiety in the cation 6 is highly unusual for aromatic phosphorus heterocycles. The structural data suggest a pronounced coordination‐induced localization of π‐electrons in the condensed ring system.     

Ansa‐Bridged Bis(benzene) Titanium Complexes

Taking advantage of an improved synthesis of [Ti(η⁶‐C₆H₆)₂], we report here the first examples of ansa‐bridged bis(benzene) titanium complexes. Deprotonation of [Ti(η⁶‐C₆H₆)₂] with nBuLi in the presence of N,N,N′,N′′,N′′‐pentamethyldiethylenetriamine (pmdta) leads to the corresponding 1,1′‐dilithio salt [Ti(η⁶‐C₆H₅Li)₂] ? pmdta that enables the preparation of the first one‐ and two‐atom‐bridged complexes by simple salt metathesis. The ansa complexes were fully characterized (NMR spectroscopy, UV/Vis spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X‐ray crystallography) and further studied electrochemically and computationally. Moreover, [Ti(η⁶‐C₆H₆)₂] is found to react with the Lewis base 1,3‐dimethylimidazole‐2‐ylidene (IMe) to give the bent sandwich complex [Ti(η⁶‐C₆H₆)₂(IMe)].

First heterobimetallic AgI–CoIII coordination compound with both bridging and terminal –NO2 coordination modes: synthesis,characterization, structural and computational studies of (PPh3)2AgI–(μ‐κ2O,O′:κN‐NO2)–CoIII(DMGH)2(κN‐NO2)

An unusual heterobimetallic bis(triphenylphosphane)(NO₂)Ag^I–Co^III(dimethylglyoximate)(NO₂) coordination compound with both bridging and terminal –NO₂ (nitro) coordination modes has been isolated and characterized from the reaction of [CoCl(DMGH)₂(PPh₃)] (DMGH₂ is dimethylglyoxime or N,N′‐dihydroxybutane‐2,3‐diimine) with excess AgNO₂. In the title compound, namely bis(dimethylglyoximato‐1κ²O,O′)(μ‐nitro‐1κN:2κ²O,O′)(nitro‐1κN)bis(triphenylphosphane‐2κP)cobalt(III)silver(I), [AgCo(C₄H₇N₂O₂)₂(NO₂)₂(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂], one of the ambidentate –NO₂ ligands, in a bridging mode, chelates the Ag^I atom in an isobidentate κ²O,O′‐manner and its N atom is coordinated to the Co^III atom. The other –NO₂ ligand is terminally κN‐coordinated to the Co^III atom. The structure has been fully characterized by X‐ray crystallography and spectroscopic methods. Density functional theory (DFT) and time‐dependent density functional theory (TD‐DFT) have been used to study the ground‐state electronic structure and elucidate the origin of the electronic transitions, respectively.     

Synthese und Eigenschaften von (Acido)(nitrosyl)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenium

Synthesis and Properties of (Acido)(nitrosyl)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenium (Acido)(nitrosyl)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenium, [Ru(X)(NO)pc^2–] (X = F, Cl, Br, I, CN, NCO, NCS, NCSe, N₃, NO₂) is obtained by acidification of a solution of bis(tetra(n-butyl)ammonium) bis(nitro)phthalocyaninato(2–)ruthenate(II) in tetrahydrofurane with the corresponding conc. mineral acid or aqueous ammonium salt solution. The nitrite-nitrosyl conversion is reversal in basic media. The cyclic and differential pulse voltammograms show mainly three quasi-reversible one-electron processes at 1.05, –0.65 and –1.25 V, ascribed to the first ring oxidation and the stepwise reduction to the complexes of type {RuNO}⁷ and {RuNO}⁸, respectively. The B < Q < N regions in the electronic absorption spectra are still typical for the pc^2– ligand, but are each split into two strong absorptions (14500/16500(B); 28000/30500(Q); 34500/37000 cm^–1(N)), whose relative intensities strongly depend on the nature of the axial ligand X. In the IR spectra is active the N–O stretching vibration between 1827 (X = I) and 1856 cm^–1 (F), the C–N stretching vibration at 2178 (X = NCO), 2072 (NCS), 2066 (NCSe), 2093 cm^–1 (CN), the N–N stretching vibration of the azide ligand at 2045 cm^–1, the fundamentals of the nitrito(O) ligand at 1501, 932, and 804 cm^–1, and the Ru–X stretching vibration at 483 (F), 332 (Cl), 225 (Br), 183 (I), 395 (N₃), 364 (ONO), 403 (CN), 263 (NCS), and 231 cm^–1 (NCSe). In the resonance Raman spectra, excited in coincidence with the B region, the Ru–NO stretching vibration and the very intense Ru–N–O deformation vibration are selectively enhanced between 580 and 618 cm^–1, and between 556 and 585 cm^–1, respectively.     

Chloro(η6‐p‐cymene)(phosphoramidite)ruthenium(II), a 16‐Electron Fragment Stabilized by an η2‐Aryl–Metal Interaction,and Its Use in Asymmetric Cyclopropanation

Chloride abstraction from the half‐sandwich complexes [RuCl₂(η⁶‐p‐cymene)(P*‐κP)] ( 2a : P* = (S_a,R,R)‐ 1a = (1S_a)‐[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diyl bis[(1R)‐1‐phenylethyl)]phosphoramidite; 2b : P* = (S_a,R,R)‐ 1b = (1S_a)‐[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diyl bis[(1R)‐(1‐(1‐naphthalen‐1‐yl)ethyl]phosphoramidite) with (Et₃O)[PF₆] or Tl[PF₆] gives the cationic, 18‐electron complexes dichloro(η⁶‐p‐cymene){(1S_a)‐[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diyl {(1R)‐1‐[(1,2‐η)‐phenyl]ethyl}[(1R)‐1‐phenylethyl]phosphoramidite‐κP}ruthenium(II) hexafluorophosphate ( 3a ) and [Ru(S)]‐dichloro(η⁶‐p‐cymene){(1S_a)‐[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diyl {(1R)‐1‐[(1,2‐η)‐naphthalen‐1‐yl]ethyl}[(1R)‐1‐(naphthalen‐1‐yl)ethyl]phosphoramidite‐κP)ruthenium(II) hexafluorophosphate ( 3b ), which feature the η²‐coordination of one aryl substituent of the phosphoramidite ligand, as indicated by ¹H‐, ¹³C‐, and ³¹P‐NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by an X‐ray study of 3b . Additionally, the dissociation of p‐cymene from 2a and 3a gives dichloro{(1S_a)‐[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diyl [(1R)‐(1‐(η⁶‐phenyl)ethyl][(1R)‐1‐phenylethyl]phosphoramidite‐κP)ruthenium(II) ( 4a ) and di‐μ‐chlorobis{(1S_a)‐[1,1′‐binaphthalene]‐2,2′‐diyl [(1R)‐1‐(η⁶‐phenyl)ethyl][(1R)‐1‐phenylethyl]phosphoramidite‐κP}diruthenium(II) bis(hexafluorophosphate) ( 5a ), respectively, in which one phenyl group of the N‐substituents is η⁶‐coordinated to the Ru‐center. Complexes 3a and 3b catalyze the asymmetric cyclopropanation of α‐methylstyrene with ethyl diazoacetate with up to 86 and 87% ee for the cis‐ and the trans‐isomers, respectively.     

Hydrogen‐Bond‐Based Magnetic Exchange Between μ‐Diethylnicotinamide(aqua)bis(X‐salicylato)copper(II) Polymeric Chains

Polymeric salicylatocopper(II) complexes of unusual composition [C u(X‐ sal)₂( μ‐denia)(H₂O)]_n [denia = diethylnicotinamide, and X‐sal = 5‐methylsalicylate ( 1 ), 3‐methylsalicylate ( 2 ), 4‐methoxysalicylate ( 3 ), 3,5‐dichlorosalicylate ( 4 ) and 3,5‐dibromosalicylate ( 5 )] were synthesized and characterized. Magnetic measurements were performed in the temperature range 1.8–300 K. The structural unit of all complexes consists of a Cu^II atom, which is monodentately coordinated by the pair of X‐salicylate anions in trans positions. Water and the diethylnicotinamide ligand occupy the other two basal plane positions of the tetragonal pyramid. The axial positions are occupied by a diethylnicotinamide oxygen atom of neighboring structural units, thus forming a spiral polymeric structure parallel to b axis. Magnetic measurements showed that all complexes 1 – 5 exhibit a susceptibility maximum at about 6–8 K. The obtained data fit to Bleaney–Bowers equation gave singlet‐triplet energy gaps 2J = –8.60 cm^–1 for 1 , 2J = –6.57 cm^–1 for 2 , 2J = –8.57 cm^–1 for 3 , 2J = –6.82 cm^–1 for 4 , and 2J = –6.45 cm^–1 for 5 . The supramolecular structure based on hydrogen bonds [described by supramolecular synthons R₂²(10) and R₂²(12)] is the pathway for antiferromagnetic interactions of the magnetically coupled pairs of copper atoms of neighboring chains within the 2D supramolecular layers. The results of the magnetic measurements suggest involvement of the COO groups in the magnetic interaction pathway for all five complexes.     

A novel (4,6)‐connected double‐layered BaII coordination polymer based on the flexible tricarboxylate ligand 2,2′,2′′‐[1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4,6‐triyltris(sulfanediyl)]triacetic acid

The triazine ligand is partially deprotonated, as verified by intermolecular hydrogen‐bonding parameters, and adopts μ₂‐η¹:η¹ and μ₄‐η¹:η¹:η² coordination modes to connect the Ba^II centres, forming a novel double‐layered structure. Topological analysis indicates that the whole structure is a novel (4,6)‐connected net, considering the ligands and Ba^II centres as four‐ and six‐connected nodes, respectively.

Cadmium(II) iodide and thiocyanate complexes adopted by polycyclic 1,4‐bis(pyridazin‐4‐yl)benzene: interplay of coordination and π–π stacking interactions

New complexes containing the 1,4‐bis(pyridazin‐4‐yl)benzene ligand, namely diaquatetrakis[1,4‐bis(pyridazin‐4‐yl)benzene‐κN²]cadmium(II) hexaiodidodicadmate(II), [Cd(C₁₄H₁₀N₄)₄(H₂O)₂][Cd₂I₆], (I), and poly[[μ‐1,4‐bis(pyridazin‐4‐yl)benzene‐κ²N²:N^2′]bis(μ‐thiocyanato‐κ²N:S)cadmium(II)], [Cd(NCS)₂(C₁₄H₁₀N₄)]_n, (II), demonstrate the adaptability of the coordination geometries towards the demands of slipped π–π stacking interactions between the extended organic ligands. In (I), the discrete cationic [Cd—N = 2.408 (3) and 2.413 (3) Å] and anionic [Cd—I = 2.709 (2)–3.1201 (14) Å] entities are situated across centres of inversion. The cations associate via complementary O—H...N^2′ hydrogen bonding [O...N = 2.748 (4) and 2.765 (4) Å] and extensive triple π–π stacking interactions between pairs of pyridazine and phenylene rings [centroid–centroid distances (CCD) = 3.782 (4)–4.286 (3) Å] to yield two‐dimensional square nets. The [Cd₂I₆]²⁻ anions reside in channels generated by packing of successive nets. In (II), the Cd^II cation lies on a centre of inversion and the ligand is situated across a centre of inversion. A two‐dimensional coordination array is formed by crosslinking of linear [Cd(μ‐NCS)₂]_n chains [Cd—N = 2.3004 (14) Å and Cd—S = 2.7804 (5) Å] with N²:N^2′‐bidentate organic bridges [Cd—N = 2.3893 (12) Å], which generate π–π stacks by double‐slipped interactions between phenylene and pyridazine rings [CCD = 3.721 (2) Å].     

Dimeric Structure of [(η2‐NO3)2(tpy)Bi(μ‐OH)2Bi(tpy)(η2‐NO3)2]

The synthesis and single crystal X‐ray structure determination are reported for the 2,2′ : 6′,2″‐terpyridine (= tpy) adduct of bismuth(III) nitrate. The hydroxide‐bridged dimer [(η²‐NO₃)₂(tpy)Bi(μ‐OH)₂Bi(tpy)(η²‐NO₃)₂] with nine‐coordinate geometry about Bi was the only isolable product from all crystallization attempts in varying ratios of Bi(NO₃) : terpy.; [(η²‐NO₃)₂(tpy)Bi(μ‐OH)₂Bi(tpy) · (η²‐NO₃)₂] is triclinic, P 1, a = 7.941(8), b = 10.732(9), c = 11.235(9) Å; α = 63.05(1), β = 85.01(1), γ = 79.26(1)°, Z = 1, dimer, R = 0.058 for N₀ = 2319.     

Insight into the structures of [M(C5H4I)(CO)3] and [M2(C12H8)(CO)6] (M = Mn and Re) containing strong I...O and π(CO)–π(CO) interactions

The compounds tricarbonyl(η⁵‐1‐iodocyclopentadienyl)manganese(I), [Mn(C₅H₄I)(CO)₃], (I), and tricarbonyl(η⁵‐1‐iodocyclopentadienyl)rhenium(I), [Re(C₅H₄I)(CO)₃], (III), are isostructural and isomorphous. The compounds [μ‐1,2(η⁵)‐acetylenedicyclopentadienyl]bis[tricarbonylmanganese(I)] or bis(cymantrenyl)acetylene, [Mn₂(C₁₂H₈)(CO)₆], (II), and [μ‐1,2(η⁵)‐acetylenedicyclopentadienyl]bis[tricarbonylrhenium(I)], [Re₂(C₁₂H₈)(CO)₆], (IV), are isostructural and isomorphous, and their molecules display inversion symmetry about the mid‐point of the ligand C[triple‐bond]C bond, with the (CO)₃M(C₅H₄) (M = Mn and Re) moieties adopting a transoid conformation. The molecules in all four compounds form zigzag chains due to the formation of strong attractive I...O [in (I) and (III)] or π(CO)–π(CO) [in (I) and (IV)] interactions along the crystallographic b axis. The zigzag chains are bound to each other by weak intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds for (I) and (III), while for (II) and (IV) the chains are bound to each other by a combination of weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds and π(Csp²)–π(Csp²) stacking interactions between pairs of molecules. The π(CO)–π(CO) contacts in (II) and (IV) between carbonyl groups of neighboring molecules, forming pairwise interactions in a sheared antiparallel dimer motif, are encountered in only 35% of all carbonyl interactions for transition metal–carbonyl compounds.
