μ-[Bis(η5-cyclopentadienyl)dimethylsilyl]bis(tricarbonylwolfram), ein über cyclopentadienylliganden verbrücktes bis(η5-cyclopentadienyltricarbonylwolfram)

The reaction of W(CO)₃(EtCN)₃ with (C₅H₅)₂Si(CH₃)₂ leads to the Cp-bridged, binuclear hydrido complex [W(CO)₃H]₂-μ-[(η⁵-C₅H₄)₂Si(CH₃)₂] as the main product, whereas only [W(CO)₃]₂-μ-(η⁵-C₅H₄)₂Si(CH₃)₂] (I) is formed as the minor product. Much better yields of I can be obtained in the reaction of W(CO)₃(EtCN)₃ with the lithium salt Li₂[(C₅H₄)₂Si(CH₃)₂] and subsequent oxidation. As pointed out by X-ray structure analysis complex I has a cis-configuration with C₂-symmetry due to the linked Cp ligands. In the chiral complex a topomerism can be proved by temperature-dependent NMR spectroscopy.     

Bis(trifluormethylisocyanid)-(η-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)-cobalt. Darstellung und Oxidation zu Trifluormethylisocyanid-(η-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)-dihalogeno-cobalt

Ligand substitution in Cp^*Co(CO)₂ (Cp^* = C₅(CH₃)₅) by trifluoromethyl isocyanide yields Cp^* Co(CNCF₃)₂. Due to the high electron density at the metal atom,the NC vibrations are shifted to low wavenumbers (1906, 1832 cm⁻¹) compared to the free isocya This compound is rapidly oxidized by halogenes to the corresponding halogeno complexes Cp^* Co(CNCF₃)X₂ (X = Cl, Br,I).

Crystal and molecular structure of (μ-η2,η3-propargyl)- bis(cyclopentadienyl)tetracarbonyldimolybdenum tetrafluoroborate and (μ-η2,η3-1,1-dimethylpropargyl)- bis(cyclopentadienyl)tetracarbonyldimolybdenum tetrafluoroborate

An X-ray study of [(μ-η²,η³-HCCCH₂)Cp₂Mo₂(CO)₄]⁺(BF₄⁻) (1) and [(μ-η²,η³-HCCCMe₂)Cp₂Mo₂(CO)₄]⁺(BF₄⁻) (2) reveals their structures to be similar to the structure of neutral compounds of the series (μ-η²,η²-RCCR)Cp₂Mo₂(CO)₄, the difference between 1 and 2 being mainly due to the markedly different MoC⁺ bond lengths, which accounts for different stability and fluxional behavior of these compounds in solution.     

Bis(arene)metal compounds: I. Nucleophilic substitution of bis(η6-chlorobenzo-trifluoride)chromium(0) with thiophenoxide

The ortho, meta and para complexes of bis(η⁶-chlorobenzotrifluoride)chromium(0) were made by metal-vapor synthesis. Nucleophilic substitutions by thiophenoxide of these complexes are compared to nucleophilic substitutions by thiophenoxide on the uncoordinated arenes. It was found that substitution at the chloro position is more facile on the complexes than on the free arenes. Substitution of the chloro on the meta-isomer sandwich was more facile than substitution of the chloro on the ortho-isomer sandwich, contrary to the observed reactivity pattern in the free arenes.

The reactions of (chd)₂IrCl (chd = η⁴-cyclohexa-1,3-diene) with the 2-lithio derivatives of furane, thiophene, and N-methylpyrrole in ether give the corresponding (chd)₂Ir-2-furyl, -2-thienyl-, and -2-N-methylpyrrolyl complexes, respectively. The new compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, mass and NMR spectroscopy.     

Organodiphosphines in cis-Pt(η2-P2L)(η2-S2L) derivatives – structural aspects

Abstract

In this review structural parameters of forty complexes with an inner coordination sphere of Pt(η²-P₂L)(η²-S₂L) are analyzed and classified These complexes crystallize in three crystal systems: orthorhombic (four examples), triclinic (six examples) and monoclinic (thirty examples). The organodiphosphines create four- (PCP), five- (PC₂P), six- (PC₃P) and seven- (PC₄P) membered metallocyclic rings with mean P-Pt-P bite angle values of 72.5° (PCP) < 85.3° (PC₂P) < 93.0° (PC₃P) < 97.4° (PC₄P). The dithiolates create four- (SCS), five- (SC₂S), six- (SC₃S; SCSCS; SPNPS; SPCPS) and seven- (SC₄S) membered metallocyclic rings with mean S-Pt-S bite angle values of 74.5° (SCS) < 85.8° (SCSCS) < 87.0° (SPNPS) < 89.0° (SC₂S) < 92.3° (SC₄S) < 93.5° (SC₃S) < 97.5° (SPCPS). The mean Pt-P and Pt-S bond distances are 2.257 and 2.328?Å, respectively. The data are compared with those found in complexes with inner coordination spheres of Pt(PL)₂(SL)₂, Pt(PL)₂(η²-S₂L) and Pt(η²-P₂L)(SL)₂.     

The formation,crystal and molecular structures of bis(η5-indenyl)dicarbonyltitanium and bis(η5-indenyl)dicarbonylzirconium

Bis(η⁵-indenyl)dicarbonyltitanium has been produced in 47% yield by reduction of bis(η⁵-indenyl)dichlorotitanium with activated aluminum in THF solution under a carbon monoxide atmosphere. Bis(η⁵-indenyl)dicarbonylzirconium can similarly be prepared in 45% yield by the reductive carbonylation of bis(η⁵-indenyl)dichlorozirconium using activated magnesium turnings. IR spectral evidence has been obtained for the corresponding hafnium analog, although it could not be isolated. Detailed syntheses for the precursors (η⁵-indenyl)₂MCl₂ (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) have been developed. Bis(η⁵-indenyl)dicarbonyltitanium crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c with unit cell parameters a 30.435(8), b 7.357(5), c 28.279(8) Å and β 90.93(5)°. Refinement of 3530 observed reflections lead to final agreement indices of R = 0.052 and R_w = 0.049. Bis(η⁵-indenyl)dicarbonylzirconium crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with unit cel parameters of a 7.288(5), b 14.398(8), c 15.273(7) Å and β 89.84(5)°. Refinement of 2253 observed reflections lead to final agreement indices of R = 0.049 and R₂ = 0.055.     

Insertionsreaktionen von Bis(η-cyclopentadienyl)hydridorhenium mit monosubstituierten Acetylenen

Bis(η-cyclopentadienyl)hydridorhenium Cp₂ReH undergoes stereospecific trans insertion reactions when treated with monosubstituted acetylenes HCCR (R  CO₂Me, CN, CF₃). The cis alkenyl complexes Cp₂Re[η¹-(Z)-CHCHR] thus formed isomerize thermally or under acid catalysis to produce the trans isomers Cp₂Re[η¹-(E)-CHCHR]. When Cp₂ReH adds to HCCCOMe only the trans isomer is observed. The regiospecific β-addition of Cp₂ReH contrasts with the α-addition of Cp₂MoH₂ and Cp₂WH₂. The insertion of acetylenes HCCR′ into the metalcarbon bond of some alkenyl complexes Cp₂Re[η¹-(E)-CHCHR] affords butadienyl complexes Cp₂Re[η¹-{(1E,3E)-CHCHR′CHCHR&}] (R,R′  COMe, CO₂Me). The (E,E)-configuration of these compounds is deduced from ³J(¹³-C¹H) coupling constants.     

Crystal structure of bis[Ba(Aet)(OH2)5]bis(Aet)·4H2O

An X-ray crystallographic study is conducted of single crystals with the composition [Ba₂(Aet^?)₂·10(H₂O)]²⁺·2(Aet^?)·4H₂O, where Aet^? = (C₁₀H₁₁N₄O₂S₂)^? is the ethazole (2-(para-aminobenzenesulfamido)-5-ethyl-1,3,4-tiadiazole) anion. The crystals are monoclinic; the space group is P2₁/c, Z = 2; a = 9.793(2) Å, b = 15.408(4) Å, and c = 22.553(6) Å; β = 94.98(2)°; and R = 0.047. The independent part of the compound’s structural formula, [Ba(Aet)(OH₂)₅](Aet)·2H₂O, is isostructural with the analogous compound with the Sr atom. The ethazole anion is coordinated to the complexing metal atom by oxygen and nitrogen atoms to form a four-membered ring.     

Synthesis,molecular structure and spectroscopic characterization of MO(CO)2I2 (η2-dppm)(η1-dppm)

A new, high-yield method has been developed for the preparation of MO(CO)₂I₂(η²-dppm)(η¹-dppm). The title compound was prepared by the reaction of [Et₄N][Mo(CO)₄I₃] with dppm in benzene in 95% yield. It has been characterized by a single-crystal X-ray study. The crystallographic data are as follows: monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 19.023(4) Å, b = 14.439(3) Å, c = 20.141(5) Å, β = 100.45(2)°, V = 5440(2) ų Z = 4. The geometry around the central metal atom could be considered as either a distortion from a capped octahedron with a carbonyl in a capping position or from a trigonal prism with the iodine capping a rectangular face. The solution behavior of Mo(CO)₂I₂(dppm)₂ was examined with ³¹P NMR, which showed it to be fluxional.     

Synthesis and structures of the silyl bridged bis(indenyl) diruthenium complexes and a novel indenyl nonanuclear ruthenium cluster Ru9(μ6-C)(CO)14(μ3-η:η:η-C9H7)2

Thermal treatment of C₉H₇SiMe₂C₉H₇ and C₉H₇Me₂SiOSiMe₂C₉H₇ with Ru₃(CO)₁₂ in refluxing xylene gave the corresponding diruthenium complexes (E)[(η⁵-C₉H₆)Ru(CO)]₂(μ-CO)₂ [E = Me₂Si (1), Me₂SiOSiMe₂ (2)]. A desilylation product [(η⁵-C₉H₇)Ru(CO)]₂(μ-CO)₂ (3) was also obtained in the latter case. Similar treatment of C₉H₇Me₂SiSiMe₂C₉H₇ with Ru₃(CO)₁₂ gave a novel indenyl nonanuclear ruthenium cluster Ru₉(μ₆-C)(CO)₁₄(μ₃-η⁵:η²:η²-C₉H₇)₂ (5) with carbon-centered tricapped trigonal prism geometry, in addition to the diruthenium complex (Me₂SiSiMe₂)[(η⁵-C₉H₆)Ru(CO)]₂(μ-CO)₂ (4) and the desilylation product 3. Complex 4 can undergo a thermal rearrangement to form the product [(Me₂Si)(η⁵-C₉H₆)Ru(CO)₂]₂ (6). The molecular structures of 1, 2, 4, 5, and 6 were determined by X-ray diffraction.     

Rydberg spectra of bis(η-benzene)chromium derivatives: Gas-phase photoabsorption study of bis(η-1,2,4-trimethylbenzene)chromium and bis(η-1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene)chromium

The gas-phase electronic absorption spectra of (η⁶-1,2,4-C₆H₃Me₃)₂Cr (1) and (η⁶-1,2,4,5-C₆H₂Me₄)₂Cr (2) have been measured for the first time and compared with those recorded in n-pentane solution. The gas-phase spectra of both compounds show transitions from the non-bonding chromium 3d_z² orbital to molecular Rydberg s, p and d levels. The first ionisation potentials have been determined from the Rydberg frequencies as 4.994±0.009 and 4.862±0.009 eV for 1 and 2, respectively. Detailed assignments of Rydberg bands have been made on the basis of analysis of the quantum defects and term values. The Rydberg structures agree with the C₁, C_s or C₂ conformation for 1 and the D_2d geometry for 2 in the gas phase. In crystal, however, the molecule of 2 appears to adopt an eclipsed conformation close to D_2h as indicated by the X-ray diffraction. The influence of ring methylation on the Rydberg term values has been analysed for the first time.     

Low-spin bis(2-methylimidazole)(octaethylporphyrinato)iron(III) chloride (perp-[Fe(OEP)(2-MeHIm)(2)]Cl): a consequence of hydrogen bonding?

The synthesis and characterization of low-spin bis(2-methylimidazole)(octaethylporphyrinato)iron(III) chloride (perp[Fe(OEP)(2-MeHIm)2]Cl) is reported. The structure shows that the cation is a low-spin species with two imidazole ligands having a relative perpendicular orientation. The porphyrin core is very ruffled, which leads to shortened equatorial bonds of 1.974(4) A and slightly elongated axial Fe-N bond lengths of 2.005(10) A that are about 0.02 A shorter and 0.03 A longer, respectively, in comparison to bis-imidazole ligated iron(III) species with parallel oriented axial ligands. A one-dimensional hydrogen-bond chain is formed between chloride anions and uncoordinated imidazole nitrogen atoms. Compared with paral-[Fe(OEP)(2-MeHIm)2]ClO4, hydrogen bonding may play an important role in the differences in the two structures. M?ssbauer spectra show broadened quadrupole doublets with quadrupole splittings of 1.81 mm/s at RT and 1.94 mm/s at 20 K. The isomer shift ranges from 0.26 to 0.36 mm/s. These confirm that the title complex is a low-spin iron(III) species with the ground state (dxy)2(dxz,dyz)3. Crystal data: monoclinic, space group P2(1)/c, a = 14.066(3) A, b, 20.883(4) A, c = 19.245(4) A, beta = 109.67 degrees , and Z = 4.     

Structures of bis(2-thiobarbiturato-O)tetraaquamagnesium and catena-[(μ2-2-thiobarbiturato-O,O)(2-thiobarbiturato-O) bis(μ2-aqua)diaquastrontium] monohydrate

The crystal structures of bis(2-thiobarbiturato-O)tetraaquamagnesium Mg(H₂O)₄(HTBA-O)₂ I and catena-[(μ₂-2-thiobarbiturato-O,O)(2-thiobarbiturato-O)bis(μ₂-aqua)diaquastrontium] monohydrate catena-[Sr(μ₂-H₂O)₂(H₂O)₂(μ₂-HTBA-O,O)(HBTA-O)] _n · nH₂O (II), where H₂TBA is 2-thiobarbituric acid C₄H₄N₂O₂S, have been determined. Crystal data for a=6.7598(2) Å, b = 7.6060(2) Å, c = 8.5797(2) Å, α = 79.822(2)°, β = 76.622(1)°, γ = 69.124(1)°, V = 398.82(2) ų, space group P $\bar 1$ , Z = 1; for II: a = 20.8499(4) Å, b = 19.2649(5) Å, c = 4.14007(9) Å, β = 92.023(2)°, V = 1661.91(7) ų, space group P2₁/n, Z = 4. The Mg²⁺ ion in I is bonded to six O atoms of two HTBA^? ions and four water molecules that form a nearly regular octahedron. Each Sr²⁺ ion in II is coordinated to three oxygen atoms of three HTBA^? ions and six water molecules that form an almost ideal tricapped trigonal prism. These polyhedra share edges to form infinite chains. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds create layered structures of I and II.     

Bis(1,8-naphthylimides) and bis(1′,8′-naphthoylene-1,2-benzimidazoles) based on new bis(naphthalic anhydrides)

The reaction of bis(naphthalic anhydrides) with aniline and o-phenylenediamine under conditions of hightemperature cyclocondensation in m-cresol in the presence of a catalyst (benzoic acid) gives bis(1,8-naphthylimides) and bis(1,8-naphthoylene-1,2-benzimidazoles) which model the elementary units of polyimides and polynaphthoylenebenzimidazoles, respectively.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 649–652, May, 1991.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of [(η3-C3H5)(CO)2Mo(μ-S2CPCy3)-Mo(η3-CH2CMeCH2)(CO)2]

A novel dimolybdenum complex [(³-C₃H₅)(CO)₂Mo(-S₂CPCy₃)Mo(³-CH₂CMeCH₂)(CO)₂], obtained by reacting the [(CO)₂(³-C₃H₅)Mo(-S₂CPCy₃)Mo(CO)₃]^– anion with an excess of ClCH₂CMe=CH₂, has been characterized by i.r., ³¹P{¹H}, ¹H- and ¹³C-n.m.r. spectroscopy and by elemental analysis. The crystal structure of the complex, determined by X-ray diffraction, shows a definite preference for the central carbon of the S₂CPCy₃ bridge to bind to the Mo(2) atom coordinated by ³-2-methylallyl, rather than the Mo(1) atom attached to unsubstituted ³-allyl ligand.     

The reductive dimerization of [W(NCMe)(MeC2Me)2(η-C5H5)]+: Synthesis and X-ray structure of the novel bis(metallacyclopentadiene) complex [W2(μ-σ,σ,η2,η2-C4Me4)2(η-C5H5)2]

Treatment of [W(CO)(MeC₂Me)₂(-C₅H₅)][PF₆] with ONMe₃ in acetonitrile yields [W(NCMe)(MeC₂Me)₂(-C₅H₅)][PF₆] which undergoes irreversible reduction at a Pt electrode in THF. Sodium amalgam reduction of [W(NCMe) (MeC₂Me)₂(-C₅H₅)][PF₆] gives orange crystals of [W₂(µ-,, ², ²-C₄Me₄)₂ (-C₅H₅)₂] X-ray studies on which reveal pairwise alkyne coupling and a novel bis(metallacyclopentadiene) structure.Dedicated to Professor L. F. Dahl on the occasion of his 65th birthday.
