Functionalized bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes by organotin halide on the methine carbon atom and their related reactions

The modification of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes by organotin halide on the methine carbon atom has been successfully carried out, and their related reactions have also been studied. Bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)(iododiphenylstannyl)methane [Ph₂ISnCH(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂] can be obtained by the selective cleavage of the Sn-C_sp² bond in bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)triphenylstannylmethane with I₂ in a 1:1 molar ratio, while {di(tert-butyl)chlorostannyl}bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane [(t-Bu)₂ClSnCH(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂] and {di(tert-butyl)chlorostannyl}bis(3,4,5-trimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane [(t-Bu)₂ClSnCH(3,4,5-Me₃Pz)₂] are easily prepared by the reaction of the bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methide or bis(3,4,5-trimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methide anion with di(tert-butyl)tin dichloride. The molecular structure of [(t-Bu)₂ClSnCH(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂] determined by X-ray structure analysis indicates that bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methide acts as a bidentate monoanionic κ²-[C,N] chelating ligand. Reaction of these bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes functionalized by organotin halide with W(CO)₅THF results in the oxidative addition of the relative electrophilic Sn-X (X = Cl or I) bond instead of the Sn-C_sp³ bond to the tungsten(0) atom, yielding new metal-metal bonded complexes R₂SnCHPz₂W(CO)₃X (R = Ph or t-Bu, Pz represents substituted pyrazol-1-yl). Furthermore, treatment of the oxidative addition product (t-Bu)₂SnCH(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂W(CO)₃Cl with n-BuLi results in known complex CH₂(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂W(CO)₄ with the loss of the organotin fragment. In addition, reaction of Ph₂ISnCH(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂ with 2-PySNa (Py = pyridyl) leads to the replacement of iodide by 2-PyS⁻ anion to give Ph₂(2-PyS)SnCH(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂, which subsequently reacts with W(CO)₅THF to result in the decomposition of this ligand, also yielding the known bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane derivative of CH₂(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂W(CO)₄.     

Reactivity of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes functionalized by 2-hydroxyphenyl and 2-methoxyphenyl on the methine carbon atom with W(CO)5THF

Reactions of 2-hydroxyphenyl and 2-methoxyphenylbis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes as well as 2-hydroxyphenyl and 2-methoxyphenylbis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methanes with W(CO)₅THF have been carried out. Heating 2-hydroxyphenylbis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane (L¹) with W(CO)₅THF in THF at reflux yielded complex (L¹)W(CO)₄.L¹, while similar reaction of 2-hydroxyphenylbis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane (L²) with W(CO)₅THF resulted in the cleavage of a C_sp3-N bond to generate 1,2-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)ethane (L) and pyrazole derivative W(CO)₅(3,5-Me₂PzH) (Pz = pyrazol-1-yl). These two fragments were connected together through strong O…H-N and O-H…N hydrogen bonds to form complex L.[W(CO)₅(3,5-Me₂PzH)]₂. The analogous results were observed in the treatment of 2-methoxyphenylbis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane (L³) with W(CO)₅THF, which gave product L′.[W(CO)₅(PzH)]₂ (L′ = 1,2-bis(2-methoxyphenyl)-1,2-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)ethane) as well as certain amount of complex (L³)W(CO)₄. In addition, during the reaction of 2-methoxyphenylbis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane (L⁴) with W(CO)₅THF, partial decomposition reactions took place to yield complexes (L⁴)W(CO)₄ and W(CO)₅(3,5-Me₂PzH), but no hydrogen bond was found between these two moieties.     

Synthesis and crystal structures of Group 6 metal carbonyl complexes containing S-rich bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands

The reaction of 3(5)-methylthio-5(3)-phenylpyrazole with dibromomethane under phase-transfer catalytic conditions only affords a new ligand, bis(3-phenyl-5-methylthiopyrazol-1-yl)methane. However, the reaction of 3(5)-methylthio-5(3)-p-methoxyphenylpyrazole or 3(5)-methylthio-5(3)-tert-butylpyrazole with dibromomethane under the same conditions yields three isomers, respectively, indicating that the substituents significantly affect the steric and electronic properties of pyrazole ring during the formation of ligands. Treatment of these potential polydentate ligands with M(CO)₆ (M=Cr, Mo or W) under UV irradiation at room temperature affords (NN)M(CO)₄ derivatives, in which some complexes contain asymmetric substituted bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands. The X-ray crystal structure analyses indicate that the sulfur atoms in these complexes do not take part in the coordination to the metal centers, and S-rich bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes actually act as bidentate chelating ligands by two nitrogen atoms. It is also interesting that in order to reduce the repulsion of methyl groups with carbonyls, the methyl groups in these complexes are oriented away from the metal centers.     

The modification of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methanes by chalcogen (S and Se) and their related reactions with organotin chloride and M(CO)5THF (M = Mo and W)

The modification of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane by sulfur or selenium on the methine carbon has been successfully carried out by the reaction of the bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methide anion, prepared in situ by the reaction of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane with n-BuLi, with elemental sulfur or selenium. These bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methylthiolate or selenolate anions reacted with Ph₂SnCl₂ to form new organotin derivatives CH(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂ESnPh₂Cl (Pz = pyrazol-1-yl, E = S (1) or Se (2)), which have been characterized by NMR, IR and elemental analysis. The molecular structure of 2 determined by X-ray structure analysis indicates that bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methylselenolate is a bidentate monoanionic κ²-[N,Se] chelating ligand. The treatment of CH(3,5-Me₂Pz)₂ESnPh₂Cl with W(CO)₅THF resulted in the decomposition of ligands to yield pyrazole derivative of (3,5-Me₂PzH)W(CO)₅, while direct treatment of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methylthiolate or selenolate anions with M(CO)₅THF (M = Mo or W) formed their tricarbonyl metal anions . Succedent reaction of these carbonyl metal anions with Ph₂SnCl₂ or Ph₃SnCl yielded heterobimetalic compounds CH(Pz)₂EM(CO)₃SnPh_nCl_3−n (n = 2 or 3), which have also been characterized by ¹H NMR, IR and elemental analysis. The structure of CH(3,4,5-Me₃Pz)₂SW(CO)₃SnPh₃ (8) has been confirmed by X-ray single crystal diffraction, showing that bis(3,4,5-trimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methylthiolate acts as a tridentate, monoanionic κ³-[N,S,N] chelating ligand.     

Chemical behavior of ortho-hydroquinone-based bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands in the presence of palladium(II) chloride

The synthesis, structural characterization, and coordination behavior of ditopic ortho-hydroquinone-based bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands (ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CHpz₂, ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CH(3-Phpz)₂, and ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CH(3-tBupz)₂) with pyrazole, 3-phenylpyrazole, and 3-tert-butylpyrazole as donors are described. The reaction of a soluble PdCl₂-source with ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CHpz₂ in acetonitrile yielded the related square-planar N,N-coordinated Pd(II) dichloride complex, whereas treatment of ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CH(3-Phpz)₂ or ortho-(OH)₂C₆H₃-4-CH(3-tBupz)₂ with PdCl₂ in acetonitrile resulted in degradation of these ligands. The Pd(II) complexes trans-(3-PhpzH)₂PdCl₂ and trans-(3-tBupzH)₂PdCl₂ were isolated and fully characterized including X-ray diffraction analyses.     

Bis(pyrazol-1-yl)propane as a bulky Ligand: X-ray Crystal Structure Determination of its Adduct with Zinc(II) Chloride

The steric misfit between a geminal bis(pyrazol-1-yl)propane ligand and tetrahedral coordination leads to distortion of the latter in the title compound: N? Zn? N is 89.5(1)°, Cl? Zn? Cl 116.78(5)°. Comparison of the Zn? N (2.058(3), 2.046(3) Å) and Zn? Cl (2.209(1), 2.229(1) Å) distances with those of related compounds evidences the steric bulkiness of the title ligand.     

Synthesis, structure and characterization of M---Sn (M=Mo, W) bonded heterobimetallic complexes containing bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands

The reaction of bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane tetracarbonylmolybdenum(0) or tungsten(0) complexes with RSnCl₃ (R=Ph, Cl) at room temperature yielded heterobimetallic complexes CH₂(Pz)₂M(CO)₃(Cl)(SnCl₂R) (Pz represents substituted pyrazole; M=Mo or W; R=Ph or Cl) in good yields, which have been characterized by elemental analysis, ¹H NMR and IR spectroscopy. The reaction of bis(3,5-dimethyl-4-halopyrazol-1-yl)methane tetracarbonyl tungsten with PhSnCl₃ did not take place even in refluxing CH₂Cl₂. The electronic and steric characteristics of substituents on the pyrazole ring remarkably influence the structures of the products. The structures of CH₂(3,5-Me₂-4-BrPz)₂W(CO)₃(Cl)(SnCl₃) (8) and CH₂(4-BrPz)₂Mo(CO)₃(μ-Cl)(SnCl₂Ph) (17) (Pz: pyrazole) determined by X-ray crystallography show that no chlorine-bridged W---Sn bond is observed in complex 8, while one chlorine-bridged Mo---Sn bond exists in complex 17. The Sn---M bond length is 2.7438(5) Å in complex 8 (W---Sn) and 2.7559(4) Å in complex 17 (Mo---Sn).     

有机锡修饰的双吡唑甲烷及其与W(CO)5THF的反应

通过双吡唑甲基锂(LiCHPz₂)与有机锡卤化物(R₃SnX)的反应合成了一系列有机锡修饰的双吡唑甲烷配体(R₃SnCHPz₂).由于锡上取代基的不同,这些配体与W(CO)₅THF反应时表现出了不同的反应方式.三芳基锡修饰的双吡唑甲烷与W(CO)₅THF反应发生Sn-C(sp₃)键对W(0)中心的氧化加成;而三苄基锡修饰的双吡唑甲烷与其反应时仅给出羰基取代产物[Bz₃SnCHPz₂W(CO)₄].另外,二苯基苄基锡以及三(2-苯基-2-甲基丙基)锡修饰的双吡唑甲烷配体类似的反应导致配体的分解,产生单吡唑配体取代的羰基钨衍生物[W(CO)₅PzH]以及脱有机锡的双吡唑甲烷四羰基钨衍生物[CH₂Pz₂W(CO)₄].     

A novel rhenium(III) complex with bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane: X-ray structure and DFT calculations for [ReCl3(bpzm)(PPh3)]

The [ReCl₃(MeCN)(PPh₃)₂] complex reacts with bis(pyrazol-1-yl)methane (bpzm) to give [ReCl₃(bpzm)(PPh₃)]. This compound has been studied by IR, UV–Vis spectroscopy, magnetic measurement and X-ray crystallography. The molecular orbital diagram of [ReCl₃(bpzm)(PPh₃)] has been calculated with the density functional theory (DFT) method. The spin-allowed triplet–triplet electronic transitions of [ReCl₃(bpzm)(PPh₃)] have been calculated with the time-dependent DFT method, and the UV–Vis spectrum of the title compound has been discussed on this basis. The magnetic behavior is characteristic of a mononuclear d⁴ low-spin octahedral Re(III) complex (³T_1g ground state) and arises because of the large spin–orbit coupling (ζ = 2500 cm⁻¹), which gives a diamagnetic ground state.

Synthesis and structural characterization of ferrocene-based bis(pyrazol-1-yl)borate ligands: FcB(Me)pz2K, Fc2Bpz2K, and 1,1′-fc[B(Me)pz2]2K2 (Fc: ferrocenyl, fc: ferrocenylene, pz: pyrazolyl)

Reaction of the ferrocenyl(dimethylamino)boranes FcB(Me)NMe₂, Fc₂BNMe₂, and 1,1′-fc[B(Me)NMe₂]₂ with 1:1 mixtures of pyrazole and potassium pyrazolide in refluxing THF gave the potassium salts of the ferrocene-based bis(pyrazol-1-yl)borate ligands FcB(Me)pz₂K, Fc₂Bpz₂K, and 1,1′-fc[B(Me)pz₂]₂K₂ in good yield (Fc: ferrocenyl, fc: ferrocenylene, pz: pyrazolyl). In the solid state, FcB(Me)pz₂K and Fc₂Bpz₂K form centrosymmetric dimers with short K?Cp contacts suggesting an η⁵ coordination mode of the potassium ion. The crystal lattice of the ditopic ligand 1,1′-fc[B(Me)pz₂]₂K₂ consists of coordination polymer strands featuring essentially the same structural motif that has been observed for the monotopic derivatives. All three scorpionate ligands are thus promising building blocks for the preparation of ferrocene-containing multiple-decker sandwich complexes.

The experimental studies on the compounds 1 and 2 have been accompanied computationally by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations.     

Syntheses,crystal structures and properties of two cadmium coordination polymers containing bis (2-methylimidazol-1-yl)methane(2-mBIM) and bis (imidazol-1-yl)methane (BIM) ligands

Coordination polymers, {[Cd(2-mBIM)₃](ClO₄)₂} _n (1) and [Cd(BIM)₂(NO₃)₂] _n (2), have been prepared from the reaction of bis(2-methylimidazol-1-yl)methane(2-mBIM) with Cd(ClO₄)₂ and bis(imidazol-1-yl)methane (BIM) with Cd(NO₃)₂ in ethanol and water, respectively. Their structures were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction and IR spectroscopy. Compound 1 crystallizes in the rhombohedral space group R-3c with a = b = 12.3617(5) Å, c = 38.896(3) Å, γ = 120°, V = 5147.5(5) ų, z = 6. The Cd^II occupies a crystallographic inversion center and is coordinated by six N atoms from six distinct 2-mBIM ligands to form a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. Each 2-mBIM is coordinated to two Cd^II cations, linking alternatively four Cd^II cations, resulting in a 32-membered M₄L₄ macrometallacycle. Compound 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/m with a = 14.400(3) Å, b = 9.3894(18) Å, c = 8.6926(17) Å, β = 123.499(2)°, V = 980.1(3) ų, z = 2. The Cd coordinates to four nitrogen atoms from four different BIM and two nitrates to form a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The BIM ligands bridge to form a 1-D infinite double-bridged chain structure with 16-membered M₂L₂ macrometallacyclic structural units.     

Synthesis of 2,2-di(pyrazol-1-yl)enones via the 2:1 coupling of pyrazoles and acylbromoacetylenes in solid alumina

Pyrazoles were reacted with acylbromoacetylenes in solid Al₂O₃ at room temperature to afford 2,2-di(pyrazol-1-yl)enones in 22–69% yield. The reaction proceeds via isolable intermediates, (Z)-2-bromo-2-(pyrazol-1-yl)enones. This unexpected 2:1 coupling is in contrast to similar reactions of pyrroles, furans and thiophenes, which give the corresponding acylethynyl derivatives. This reaction opens a one-pot route to inaccessible gem-dipyrazolylenones, which have potential applications as bidentate chelating ligands and building blocks for drug design.     

Synthesis, crystal structure and magnetic behavior of two cobalt coordination polymers with 1,2-bis(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)ethane and dicyanamide

Compound 1 is a double-chain with Co(II) centers bridged by bte, containing metallocycles of [Co₂(bte)₂] and trans dca as termination ligands. In 2, each Co(II) center is bonded by two bridging bte ligands and four dca as μ-1,5-dca in different orientations in the 3D network.

Oxygenation of aromatic substrates over Pd(II) catalysts bearing bis(pyrazol-1-yl)alkanes ligands

Summary Liquid phase oxygenation of 1-tetralin, ethylbenzene, cyclohexane and toluene is describe using four catalyst precursors such as: (CH₂)n(PzR)PdCl₂ (n=1,2; R=H, Me) at T=100°C, P_air= 5.4 atm, substrate/catalyst ratio=100 for 3 h,. It was observed that the type of alkyl bridge between the pyrazolyl ligands has an effect on the catalytic activity.     

Polykis(pyrazol-1-yl)benzenes: preparation, structure, and complexation with copper and palladium

A series of polykis(pyrazol-1-yl)benzenes, potential chelating ligands for transition metals, have been prepared by nucleophilic substitution of fluorine in 1,2-difluoro-, 1,2,3,4-tetrafluoro-, 1,2,4,5-tetrafluoro-, and hexafluorobenzenes. The observed substitution pattern indicated formation of early TS, making activation by fluorines ortho- to the site of nucleophilic attack dominant. Complexation of the synthesized ligands with copper(II) and palladium(II) was analyzed by ESI mass spectrometry. X-ray structures were determined for palladium(II) complex with 1,2-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)benzene and copper(II) complex with 1,4-difluoro-2,3-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)benzene, revealing an unusual seven-membered chelate cycle formation.     

1,3-Bis(2-alkyltetrazol-5-yl)triazenes and their Fe(II), Co(II) and Ni(II) complexes: Synthesis,spectroscopy, and thermal properties. Crystal structure of Fe(II) and Co(II) 1,3-bis(2-methyltetrazol-5-yl)triazenide complexes

Complexes ML¹₂ and ML²₂, with M = Fe^II, Co^II, Ni^II, and 1,3-bis(2-R-tetrazol-5-yl)triazenide ligands L¹ (R = Me) and L² (R = ^tBu), have been synthesized by the reaction of corresponding 1,3-bis(2-R-tetrazol-5-yl)triazenes with metal(II) salts in basic media and characterized by IR, UV–Vis spectroscopy, thermal and X-ray diffraction analyses. Both 1,3-bis(2-R-tetrazol-5-yl)triazenes were found to deprotonate on coordination and act as tridentate chelating ligands forming distorted MN₆ octahedra around metal(II) cations.
