Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität von η1und η3‐Allyl‐Rhenium‐Carbonylen

Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity of η¹‐ and η³‐Allyl Rhenium Carbonyls In (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ one CO ligand can be substituted by PPh₃, pyridine, isocyanide and benzonitrile. With 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethylene, 1,1′‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene and 1,2‐bis(4‐pyridyl)ethane dinuclear ligand bridged complexes are obtained. The η³‐η¹ conversion of the allyl ligand occurs on reaction of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ with the bidendate ligands 1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane and 1,3‐bis(diphenylphosphino)propane and with 2,2′‐bipyridine (L–L) which gives the complexes (η¹‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(L–L). By reaction of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane the allyl group is protonated and under elemination of propene the complex (OC)₃Re(Ph₂PCHPPh₂)(η¹‐Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂) ( 19 ) with a diphosphinomethanide ligand is formed. On heating solutions of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₄ and (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(CN‐2,5‐Me₂C₆H₃) ( 5 ) in methanol the methoxy bridged compounds Re₄(CO)₁₂(OH)(OMe)₃ and Re₂(CO)₄(CN‐2,5‐Me₂C₆H₃)₄(μ‐OMe)₂ ( 20 ) were isolated. The crystal structures of (η³‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃(CNCH₂SiMe₃) ( 4 ), [(η³‐C₃H₅)(OC)₃Re]₂‐ (μ‐bis‐(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) ( 8 ), (η¹‐C₃H₅)Re(CO)₃‐ (bpy) ( 14 ), of 19 , 20 and of (OC)₃Re‐[Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂]Cl ( 16 ) were determined by X‐ray diffraction.     

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität von η3‐1,2‐Diphosphaallylkomplexen sowie von [{(η5‐C5H5)(CO)2W–Co(CO)3}{μ‐AsCH(SiMe3)2}(μ‐CO)]

Syntheses, Structure and Reactivity of η³‐1,2‐Diphosphaallyl Complexes and [{(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W–Co(CO)₃}{μ‐AsCH(SiMe₃)₂}(μ‐CO)] Reaction of ClP=C(SiMe₂iPr)₂ ( 3 ) with Na[Mo(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₅)] afforded the phosphavinylidene complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo=P=C(SiMe₂iPr)₂] ( 4 ) which in situ was converted into the η¹‐1,2‐diphosphaallyl complex [η⁵‐(C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η³‐tBuPPC(SiMe₂iPr)₂] ( 6 ) by treatment with the phosphaalkene tBuP=C(NMe₂)₂. The chloroarsanyl complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₃M–As(Cl)CH(SiMe₃)₂] [where M = Mo ( 9 ); M = W ( 10 )] resulted from the reaction of Na[M(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₅)] (M = Mo, W) with Cl₂AsCH(SiMe₃)₂. The tungsten derivative 10 and Na[Co(CO)₄] underwent reaction to give the dinuclear μ‐arsinidene complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W–Co(CO)₃{μ‐AsCH(SiMe₃)₂}(μ‐CO)] ( 11 ). Treatment of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η³‐tBuPPC(SiMe₃)₂}] ( 1 ) with an equimolar amount of ethereal HBF₄ gave rise to a 85/15 mixture of the saline complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η²‐tBu(H)P–P(F)CH(SiMe₃)₂}]BF₄ ( 18 ) and [Cp(CO)₂Mo{F₂PCH(SiMe₃)₂}(tBuPH₂)]BF₄ ( 19 ) by HF‐addition to the PC bond of the η³‐diphosphaallyl ligand and subsequent protonation ( 18 ) and/or scission of the PP bond by the acid ( 19 ). Consistently 19 was the sole product when 1 was allowed to react with an excess of ethereal HBF₄. The products 6 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 18 and 19 were characterized by means of spectroscopy (IR, ¹H‐, ¹³C{¹H}‐, ³¹P{¹H}‐NMR, MS). Moreover, the molecular structures of 6 , 11 and 18 were determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis.

Treatment of Pd(PPh₃)₄ with 5‐bromo‐pyrimidine [C₄H₃N₂Br] in dichloromethane at ambient temperature cause the oxidative addition reaction to produce the palladium complex [Pd(PPh₃)₂(η¹‐C₄H₃N₂)(Br)], 1 , by substituting two triphenylphosphine ligands. In acetonitrile solution of 1 in refluxing temperature for 1 day, it do not undergo displacement of the triphenylphosphine ligand to form the dipalladium complex [Pd(PPh₃)Br]₂{μ,η²‐(η¹‐C₄H₃N₂)}₂, or bromide ligand to form chelating pyrimidine complex [Pd(PPh₃)₂(η²‐C₄H₃N₂)]Br. Complex 1 reacted with bidentate ligand, NH₄S₂CNC₄H₈, and tridentate ligand, KTp {Tp = tris(pyrazoyl‐1‐yl)borate}, to obtain the η²‐dithiocarbamate η¹‐pyrimidine complex [Pd(PPh₃)(η¹‐C₄H₃N₂)(η²‐S₂CNC₄H₈)], 4 and η²‐Tp η¹‐pyrimidine complex [Pd(PPh₃)(η¹‐C₄H₃N₂)(η²‐Tp)], 5 , respectively. Complexes 4 and 5 are characterized by X‐ray diffraction analyses.     

[(η5‐C5R5)TiCl2(η5‐C5H4SiMe2)]2O·nCH2Cl2

The first title metallocene, 1,3‐bis(dichlorotitanocene)‐1,1,3,3‐tetramethyldisiloxane dichloromethane solvate, [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)­TiCl₂­(η⁵‐C₅H₄­Si­Me₂)]₂O·­CH₂Cl₂, (I), crystallizes in space group P2₁/c. Compound (I) represents the first crystal structure of a bimetallic siloxy‐bridged titanocene. The geometric parameters of (I) are similar to those of the parent titanocene; however, the disiloxane substituents adopt an unexpected eclipsed conformation. The second title metallocene, 1,3‐bis­[(penta­methyl­cyclo­penta­dienyl)­(cyclo­penta­dien­yl)­titanium dichloride]‐1,1,3,3‐tetra­methyl­disiloxane, [(η⁵‐C₅‐Me₅)­TiCl₂­(η⁵‐C₅H₄­Si­Me₂)]₂O, (II), represents the second crystal structure of a bimetallic siloxy‐bridged titanocene and crystallizes in the space group P2₁/n. Compound (I) possesses non‐crystallographic twofold molecular symmetry and both metal centers adopt pseudo‐tetrahedral geometries. The geometric parameters of (II) are similar to those of the mixed titanocene Cp*CpTiCl₂ (Cp* = C₅Me₅) and the disiloxane substituents adopt a staggered conformation.     

The Influence of the Ligands Cp*(η5‐C5Me5) and Cp(η5‐C5H5) on the Stability and Reactivity of Titanocene and Zirconocene Complexes: Reactions of the Bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene Permethylmetallocene Complexes (η5‐C5Me5)2M(η2‐Me3SiC2SiMe3), M = Ti,Zr, with H2O and CO2

The reactions of the bis(trimethylsilyl)acetylene permethylmetallocene complexes CpM(η²‐Me₃SiC₂SiMe₃) (M = Ti ( 1 ), M = Zr ( 2 )) with H₂O and CO₂ were studied and compared to those of the corresponding metallocene complexes Cp₂M(L)(η²‐Me₃SiC₂SiMe₃) (M = Ti ( 3 ), L = – ; M = Zr, L = THF ( 4 )) to understand the influence of the ligands Cp(η⁵‐C₅H₅) and Cp*(η⁵‐C₅Me₅) as well as the metals titanium and zirconium on the reaction pathways and the obtained products. In the reaction of the permethyltitanocene complex 1 with water the dihydroxy complex CpTi(OH)₂ ( 5 ) was formed. This product differs from the well‐known titanoxane Cp₂TiOTiCp₂ which was obtained by the reaction of the corresponding titanocene complex 3 with water. The reaction of the permethylzirconocene complex 2 with water gives the mononuclear alkenyl zirconocene hydroxide 6 . An analogous product was assumed as the first step in the reaction of the corresponding zirconocene complex 4 with water which ends up in a dinuclear zirconoxane. In the conversion of the permethylzirconocene complex 2 with carbon dioxide the mononuclear insertion product 7 was formed by coupling of carbon dioxide and the acetylene. In contrast, the corresponding zirconocene complex 4 affords, by an analogous reaction, a dinuclear complex. In additional experiments the known complex CpZr(η²‐PhC₂SiMe₃) ( 8 ) was prepared, starting from CpZrCl₂ and Mg in the presence of PhC≡CSiMe₃. This complex reacts with carbon dioxide resulting in a mixture of the regioisomeric zirconafuranones 9 a and 9 b . From these in the complex 9 a , having the SiMe₃ group in β‐position to the metal, the Zr–C bond was quickly hydrolyzed by water to give the complex CpZr(OH)OC(=O)–C(SiMe₃)=CHPh ( 10 a ) compared to complex ( 9 b ) which gives slowly the complex CpZr(OH)OC(=O)–CPh=CH(SiMe₃) ( 10 b ).     

An η3‐Bound Allyl Ligand on Magnesium in a Mechanochemically Generated Mg/K Allyl Complex

Milling two equivalents of K[1,3‐(SiMe₃)₂C₃H₃] (=K[A′]) with MgX₂ (X=Cl, Br) produces the allyl complex [K₂MgA′₄] ( 1 ). Crystals grown from toluene are of the solvated species [((η⁶‐tol)K)₂MgA′₄] ([ 1 ?2(tol)]), a trimetallic monomer with both bridging and terminal (η¹) allyl ligands. When recrystallized from hexanes, the unsolvated 1 forms a 2D coordination polymer, in which the Mg is surrounded by three allyl ligands. The C?C bond lengths differ by only 0.028 Å, indicating virtually complete electron delocalization. This is an unprecedented coordination mode for an allyl ligand bound to Mg. DFT calculations indicate that in isolation, an η³‐allyl configuration on Mg is energetically preferred over the η¹‐ (σ‐bonded) arrangement, but the Mg must be in a low coordination environment for it to be experimentally realized. Methyl methacrylate is effectively polymerized by 1 , with activities that are comparable to K[A′] and greater than the homometallic magnesium complex [{MgA′₂}₂].     

Mo4(η3‐allyl)4Cl2(OH)2(CO)8: the first cubane‐type Mo2+ organometallic complex with μ3‐OH and μ3‐Cl bridges

The reaction between fluorenyllithium and Mo(η³‐C₃H₅)Cl(NCMe)₂(CO)₂ led to the isolation of di‐μ₃‐chlorido‐di‐μ₃‐hydroxido‐tetrakis[(η³‐allyl)dicarbonylmolybdenum(II)]–9‐fluorenone–tetrahydrofuran (1/1/1), [Mo₄(C₃H₅)₄Cl₂(OH)₂(CO)₈]·C₄H₈O·C₁₃H₈O. The tetrametallic Mo₄ unit constitutes the first example of a complex containing simultaneously two μ₃‐OH groups and two μ₃‐Cl anions capping the metallic trigonal prism. The four crystallographically independent Mo²⁺ centres exhibit distorted octahedral geometry with the η³‐allyl groups being trans‐coordinated to a μ₃‐OH group and the carbonyl groups occupying the equatorial plane. Space‐filling tetrahydrofuran and 9‐fluorenone molecules are engaged in strong O—H...O hydrogen‐bonding interactions with Mo₄(η³‐allyl)₄Cl₂(OH)₂(CO)₈ complexes.

P?C(SiMe₃)₂ with (Z-cyclooctene)Cr(CO)₅ afforded the pentacarbonylchromium adduct of a 1,2-diphosphaferrocene [(η⁵-tBuC₅C₅H₄){η⁵-1-[Cr(CO)₅]-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}Fe] ( 1 c ). Diphosphaferrocene [(η⁵-tBuC₅H₄){η⁵-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}Fe] ( 2 c ) was formed when (η⁵-tBuC₅H₄)(CO)₂FeBr was treated with (Me₃Si)₂P? P?C(SiMe₃)₂ in toluene at 60°C. Photolysis of molybdenum- and tungsten hexacarbonyl in the presence of [(η⁵-1,3-tBu₂C₅H₃){η⁵-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}Fe] ( 2 b ) gave the pentacarbonylmetal adducts 8 (M = Mo) and 9 (M = W), respectively. A corresponding manganese derivative resulted from the photochemical reaction of 2 b and (MeC₅H₄)Mn(CO)₃. Treatment of 2 b with Co₂(CO)₈ yielded trinuclear [(η⁵-1,3-tBu₂C₅H₃){η⁵-1,2-[Co₂(CO)₆]-3,4-(Me₃SiO)₂-5-(Me₃Si)P₂C₃}Fe] ( 11 ). Constitution and configuration of compounds 1 c, 2 c, 8 – 11 were determined by elemental analyses and spectra (IR, ¹H-, ¹³C-, ³¹P-NMR, MS). In addition the molecular structure of 11 was established by single crystal X-ray analysis.     

Isolation of New Disilanylene-bridged Bis（cyclopentadienyl）tetracarbonyldiiron Complexes and Molecular Structure of [η^5, η^5-C5H4SiMe（SiMePh2）C5H4]Fe2（CO）2（μ-CO）2

1,2-Diphenyl-1,2-dimethyldisilanylene-bridged bis-cyclopentadienyl complex[η~5,η~5-C_5H_4PhMeSiSiMePh-C_5H_4]Fe_2(CO)_2(μ-CO)_2(1)was synthesized by a modified procedure,from which the trans-isomer 1b that was pre-viously difficult to obtain has been isolated for the first time.More interestingly,two new regio-isomers[η~5,η~5C_5H_4SiMe(SiMePh_2)C_5H_4]Fe_2(CO)_2(μ-CO)_2(2)and [η~5,η~5-C_5H_4Me_2SiSiPh_2C_5H_4]Fe_2(CO)_2(μ-CO)_2(3)were occa-sionally obtained during above process,the novel structures of which opened up new options for further study ofthis type of Si—Si bond-containing transition metal complexes.The molecular structure of 2 has been determinedby the X-ray diffraction method.

XVII [1] [Co(g⁵‐Me₅C₅)(g³‐^tBu₂PPCH–CH₃)] from [Co(g⁵‐Me₅C₅)(g²‐C₂H₄)₂] and ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅)(η³‐^tBu₂PPCH–CH₃)] 1 is formed in the reaction of [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅)(η²‐C₂H₄)₂] 2 with ^tBu₂P–P 4 (generated from ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ 3 ) by elimination of one C₂H₄ ligand and coupling of the phosphinophosphinidene with the second one. The structure of 1 is proven by ³¹P, ¹³C, ¹H NMR spectra and the X‐ray structure analysis. Within the ligand ^tBu₂P¹P²C¹H–CH₃ in 1 , the angle P1–P2–C1 amounts to 90°. The Co, P1, P2, C1 atoms in 1 look like a „butterfly”︁. The reaction of 2 with a mixture of ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ 3 and ^tBu–C?P 5 yields [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅){η⁴‐(^tBuCP)₂}] 6 and 1 . While 6 is spontaneously formed, 1 appears only after complete consumption of 5 .     

2H‐Azirines as Ligands: Structural Characterization of the First Neutral and Cationic (η5‐C5Me5)Rh(III) 2H‐Azirine Complexes

The synthesis and structural characterization of two azirine rhodium(III ) complexes are described. The stabilization, N‐coordination and phenylgroup π‐stacking of the highly reactive and strained 3‐phenyl‐2H‐azirine by transition metal coordination is observed. The reaction of the dimeric complex [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)RhCl₂]₂ with 3‐phenyl‐2H‐azirine (az) in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature in a 1:2 molar ratio afforded the neutral mono‐azirine complex [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)RhCl₂(az)]. The subsequent reaction of [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)RhCl₂]₂ with six equivalents of az and 4 equivalents of AgOTf yielded the cationic tris‐azirine complex [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)Rh(az)₃](OTf)₂. After purification, all complexes have been fully characterized. The molecular structures of the novel rhodium(III ) complexes exhibit slightly distorted octahedral coordination geometries around the metal atoms.

However, there is no indication for an isomer which would be the analogue to the well known [η²‐{^tBu₂P–P}Pt(PPh₃)₂].

Halfsandwich Carbonylmetal Complexes of Vanadium,Chromium, and Manganese Containing Tri(1‐cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl)phosphane,P(C7H7)3

The photo‐induced substitution of a CO ligand has been used to prepare the halfsandwich complexes (η³‐C₃H₅)V(CO)₄[P(C₇H₇)₃] ( 1 ), (η⁵‐C₅H₅)V(CO)₃[P(C₇H₇)₃] ( 2 ), (η⁷‐C₇H₇)V(CO)₂[P(C₇H₇)₃] ( 3 ), (η⁶‐C₆H₃Me₃)Cr(CO)₂[P(C₇H₇)₃] ( 4 ), and (η⁵‐C₅H₅)Mn(CO)₂[P(C₇H₇)₃] ( 7 ), in which the olefinic phosphane is coordinated as a conventional two‐electron ligand through the lone pair of electrons at phosphorus. Some analogues, which are permethylated at the aromatic ring ( 2* , 4* , 7* ), were included for comparison. Subsequent photo‐elimination of another CO group from 4 or 7 converts the olefinic phosphane into a chelating four‐electron ligand, leading to (η⁶‐C₆H₃Me₃)Cr(CO)[P(C₇H₇)₂(η²‐C₇H₇)] ( 5 ) and (η⁵‐C₅H₅)Mn(CO)[P(C₇H₇)₂(η²‐C₇H₇)] ( 8 ), respectively. The η²‐coordinated double bond in 5 and 8 can be displaced by trimethylphosphite to give (η⁶‐C₆H₃Me₃)Cr(CO)[P(C₇H₇)₃][P(OMe)₃] ( 6 ) and (η⁵‐C₅H₅)Mn(CO)[P(C₇H₇)₃][P(OMe)₃] ( 9 ). The ³¹P and ¹³C NMR spectra of all complexes are discussed, and X‐ray structure analyses for 2 and 8 are presented. Prolonged irradiation of 7 and 8 led to a di(cycloheptatrienyl)phosphido‐bridged dimer, {(η⁵‐C₅H₅)Mn(CO)[P(C₇H₇)₂]}₂( 10 ).

Treatment of pyridine‐stabilized silylene complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₄R)(CO)₂(H)W?SiH(py)(Tsi)] (R=Me, Et; py=pyridine; Tsi=C(SiMe₃)₃) with an N‐heterocyclic carbene ^MeIⁱPr (1,3‐diisopropyl‐4,5‐dimethylimidazol‐2‐ylidene) caused deprotonation to afford anionic silylene complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₄R)(CO)₂W?SiH(Tsi)][H^MeIⁱPr] (R=Me ( 1‐Me ); R=Et ( 1‐Et )). Subsequent oxidation of 1‐Me and 1‐Et with pyridine‐N‐oxide (1 equiv) gave anionic η²‐silaaldehydetungsten complexes [(η⁵‐C₅Me₄R)(CO)₂W{η²‐O?SiH(Tsi)}][H^MeIⁱPr] (R=Me ( 2‐Me ); R=Et ( 2‐Et )). The formation of an unprecedented W‐Si‐O three‐membered ring was confirmed by X‐ray crystal structure analysis.

Crystallization experiments with the dinuclear chelate ring complex di‐μ‐chlorido‐bis[(η2‐2‐allyl‐4‐methoxy‐5‐{[(propan‐2‐yloxy)carbonyl]methoxy}phenyl‐κC1)platinum(II)]

Crystallization experiments with the dinuclear chelate ring complex di‐μ‐chlorido‐bis[(η²‐2‐allyl‐4‐methoxy‐5‐{[(propan‐2‐yloxy)carbonyl]methoxy}phenyl‐κC¹)platinum(II)], [Pt₂(C₁₅H₁₉O₄)₂Cl₂], containing a derivative of the natural compound eugenol as ligand, have been performed. Using five different sets of crystallization conditions resulted in four different complexes which can be further used as starting compounds for the synthesis of Pt complexes with promising anticancer activities. In the case of vapour diffusion with the binary chloroform–diethyl ether or methylene chloride–diethyl ether systems, no change of the molecular structure was observed. Using evaporation from acetonitrile (at room temperature), dimethylformamide (DMF, at 313 K) or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, at 313 K), however, resulted in the displacement of a chloride ligand by the solvent, giving, respectively, the mononuclear complexes (acetonitrile‐κN)(η²‐2‐allyl‐4‐methoxy‐5‐{[(propan‐2‐yloxy)carbonyl]methoxy}phenyl‐κC¹)chloridoplatinum(II) monohydrate, [Pt(C₁₅H₁₉O₄)Cl(CH₃CN)]·H₂O, (η²‐2‐allyl‐4‐methoxy‐5‐{[(propan‐2‐yloxy)carbonyl]methoxy}phenyl‐κC¹)chlorido(dimethylformamide‐κO)platinum(II), [Pt(C₁₅H₁₉O₄)Cl(C₂H₇NO)], and (η²‐2‐allyl‐4‐methoxy‐5‐{[(propan‐2‐yloxy)carbonyl]methoxy}phenyl‐κC¹)chlorido(dimethyl sulfoxide‐κS)platinum(II), determined as the analogue {η²‐2‐allyl‐4‐methoxy‐5‐[(ethoxycarbonyl)methoxy]phenyl‐κC¹}chlorido(dimethyl sulfoxide‐κS)platinum(II), [Pt(C₁₄H₁₇O₄)Cl(C₂H₆OS)]. The crystal structures confirm that acetonitrile interacts with the Pt^II atom via its N atom, while for DMSO, the S atom is the coordinating atom. For the replacement, the longest of the two Pt—Cl bonds is cleaved, leading to a cis position of the solvent ligand with respect to the allyl group. The crystal packing of the complexes is characterized by dimer formation via C—H…O and C—H…π interactions, but no π–π interactions are observed despite the presence of the aromatic ring.
