As a by‐product PPh₄[ReNCl₄] is formed.

Syntheses and Structure of Chiral Metallatetrahedron Complexes of the Type [Re₂(M¹PPh₃)(M²PPh₃)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇C≡CPh] (M¹ = Ag, Au; M² = Cu, Ag, Au) From the reaction of Li[Re₂(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇(C(Ph)O)] ( 1 ) with Ph₃AuC≡CPh both benzaldehyde and the trinuclear complex Li[Re₂(AuPPh₃)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇C≡CPh] ( 2a ) were obtained in high yield. The complex anion was isolated as its PPh₄‐salt 2b . The latter reacts with coinage metal complexes PPh₃M²Cl [M² = Cu, Ag, Au] to give chiral heterometallatetrahedranes of the general formula [Re₂(AuPPh₃)(M²PPh₃)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇C≡CPh] (M² = Cu 3a , Ag 3b , Au 3c ). The corresponding complex [Re₂(AgPPh₃)₂(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇C≡CPh] ( 3d ) is obtained from the reaction of [Re₂(AgPPh₃)₂(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇Cl] ( 4 ) with LiC≡CPh. 3d undergoes a metathesis reaction in the presence of PPh₃CuCl giving [Re₂(AgPPh₃)(CuPPh₃)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇C≡CPh] ( 3e ) and PPh₃AgCl. Analogous metathesis reactions are observed when 3c is reacted with PPh₃AgCl or PPh₃CuCl giving 3a or 3b , respectively. The reaction of 1 with PPh₃AuCl gives benzaldehyde and Li[Re₂(AuPPh₃)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇Cl] ( 5a ) which upon reaction with PhLi forms the trinuclear complex Li[Re₂(AuPPh₃)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇Ph] ( 6a ). Again this complex was isolated as its PPh₄‐salt 6b . In contrast to 2b , 6b reacts with one equivalent of Ph₃PAuCl by transmetalation to give Ph₃PAuPh and PPh₄[Re₂(AuPPh₃)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇Cl] ( 5b ). The X‐ray structures of the compounds 3a , 3b , 3e and 4 are reported.

Molybdenum and Tungsten Complexes with MNS Sequences. Crystal Structures of [MoCl₃(N₃S₂)(1,4‐dioxane)₂] and [Mo₂Cl₂(μ‐NSN)₂(μ‐O)(NCMe₃)(OCMe₃)₂]₂ The cyclo‐thiazeno complexes [Cl₃MNSNSN]₂ of molybdenum and tungsten react with 1,4‐dioxane in dichloromethane suspension to give the binuclear donor‐acceptor complexes [μ‐(1,4‐dioxane){MCl₃(N₃S₂)}₂] which are characterized by IR spectroscopy.

Synthesis and Reactivity of Structurally Analogous Phenylimido and Oxo Complexes of Rhenium(V) with N,N‐Dialkyl‐N′‐benzoylthioureas

[ReOCl₃(PPh₃)₂] and [Re(NPh)Br₃(PPh₃)₂] react at room temperature with equivalent amounts of N,N‐dialkyl‐N′‐benzoylthioureas (HR¹R²btu) in CH₂Cl₂ under formation of the rhenium(V) complexes [ReOCl₂(R¹R¹btu)(PPh₃)] and [Re(NPh)Br₂(R¹R²btu)(PPh₃)], respectively. The products are structurally analogous with the oxygen atoms of the benzoylthioureas binding in trans positions to the oxo or phenylimido ligands. Prolonged reaction times result in the reduction of the oxo compound by the released PPh₃ and the formation of rhenium(III) complexes of the composition [ReCl₂(PPh₃)₂(R¹R²btu)], while such a second reaction path is excluded for the phenylimido compound. Phenylimido species with more than one N,N‐dialkyl‐N′‐benzoylthioureato ligand could not be isolated, even when a large excess of HR¹R²btu was used during the reaction.

Synthesis of Phosphido Chalcogenido Bridged Dirhenium Complexes of the Type Re₂(μ‐PCy₂)(μ‐ER)(CO)₈ (E = S, Se, Te; R = org. Residue) The reaction of Re₂(μ‐Br)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₈ with nucleophiles MER (M = Na, Li; E = S, Se, Te; R = org. residue) gives via substitution of the bromido bridge phosphido chalcogenido bridged dirhenium complexes of the general formula Re₂(μ‐PCy₂)(μ‐ER)(CO)₈. The new compounds were characterized by IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopic data and by elemental analyses. In addition the molecular structures for E = S, Se, Te and R = Ph as well as for E = S and R = H, n‐Bu, 2‐pyridyl have been established by single crystal X‐ray analysis. ¹³C NMR spectra of Re₂(μ‐PCy₂)(μ‐EPh)(CO)₈ (E = S, Se, Te) prove that the sulfur and selenium compounds are at room temperature dynamic molecules due to inversion of the pyramidal chalcogenido bridge. The tellurium compound, however, is rigid on the time scale of ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. Eventually the reactivity of the SH function of the novel complex Re₂(μ‐PCy₂)(μ‐SH)(CO)₈ was investigated by reaction with Re₂(CO)₈(MeCN)₂. In toluene at 90 °C the novel spirocyclic complex Re₂(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₈(μ₄‐S)Re₂(μ‐H)(CO)₈ was formed by SH oxidative addition.

The compound consists of the well known cyclic planar S₄N₃^⊕-cations and anions [ReCl₄(NSCl)₂]^?, in which the rhenium atom is coordinated octahedral by four Cl atoms and two cis-positioned NSCl ligands. The mean Re? N and N? S bond lengths (177 pm and 158 pm) correspond to double bonds. The bond lengths and angles are much like in the structure of AsPh₄[ReCl₄(NSCl)₂]; however the chlorine atoms of the NSCl ligands are turned to each other.

[Fe₂(μ_sb‐CO)(CO)₃(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂)]: Synthesis, X‐ray Crystal Structure and Isomerization Na[Fe₂(μ‐CO)(CO)₆(μ‐P^tBu₂)] ( 1 ) reacts with [NO][BF₄] at —60 °C in THF to the nitrosyl complex [Fe₂(CO)₆(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)] ( 2 ). The subsequent reaction of 2 with phosphanes (L) under mild conditions affords the complexes [Fe₂(CO)₅(NO)L(μ‐P^tBu₂)], L = PPh₃, ( 3a ); η‐dppm (dppm = Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂), ( 3b ). In this case the phosphane substitutes one carbonyl ligand at the iron tetracarbonyl fragment in 2 , which was confirmed by the X‐ray crystal structure analysis of 3a . In solution 3b loses one CO ligand very easily to give dppm as bridging ligand on the Fe‐Fe bond. The thus formed compound [Fe₂(CO)₄(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4 ) occurs in solution in different solvents and over a wide temperature range as a mixture of the two isomers [Fe₂(μ_sb‐CO)(CO)₃(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4a ) and [Fe₂(CO)₄(μ‐NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4b ). 4a was unambiguously characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis while 4b was confirmed both by NMR investigations in solution as well as by means of DFT calculations. Furthermore, the spontaneous reaction of [Fe₂(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 5 ) with NO at —60 °C in toluene yields a complicated mixture of products containing [Fe₂(μ‐CO)(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 6 ) as main product beside the isomers 4a and 4b occuring in very low yields.     

Synthese gemischt chalkogenido‐verbrückter Dirheniumkomplexe vom Typ Re2(μ‐ER)(μ‐E′R′)(CO)8 (E,E′ = S,Se, Te; R,R′ = org. Rest)

Synthesis of Mixed Chalcogenido‐Bridged Dirhenium Complexes of the Type Re₂(μ‐ER)(μ‐E′R′)(CO)₈ (E, E′ = S, Se, Te; R, R′ = org. Residue) Hydrido sulfido bridged complexes Re₂(μ‐H)(μ‐SR)(CO)₈ (R = Ph, naph, Cy) react with the base DBU to give the salts [DBUH][Re₂(μ‐SR)(CO)₈]. Upon addition of electrophiles R′E′Br (E′R = SPh, SePh, TePh) to the in situ prepared salts mixed chalcogenido bridged complexes Re₂(μ‐SR)(μ‐E′R′)(CO)₈ were formed. The structures of the new compounds Re₂(μ‐SCy)(μ‐SePh)(CO)₈ and Re₂(μ‐Snaph)(μ‐TePh)(CO)₈ were determined by single crystal X‐ray analyses. For the preparation of analogous selenido tellurido bridged complexes Re₂(μ‐SePh)(μ‐TeR)(CO)₈ the novel hydrido selenido bridged complex Re₂(μ‐H)(μ‐SePh)(CO)₈ was prepared from Re₂(CO)₈(NCMe)₂ and PhSeH. Its structure was determined by single crystal X‐ray analysis. Subsequent deprotonation with DBU gave in situ [DBUH][Re₂(μ‐SePh)(CO)₈] which upon addition of RTeBr (R = Ph, Buⁿ, Bu^t) formed the desired complexes Re₂(μ‐SePh)(μ‐TeR)(CO)₈. The reaction with Bu^tTeBr also yielded the novel spirocyclic complex (μ₄‐Te){Re₂(μ‐SePh)(CO)₈}₂ in low amounts. It was identified by single crystal X‐ray analysis. Re₂(μ‐SePh)(μ‐TeBu^t)(CO)₈ is oxidised in chloroform in the presence of air to give the novel complex (μ‐Te–Te‐μ){Re₂(μ‐SePh)(CO)₈}₂. All mixed chalcogenido bridged dirhenium complexes were proved to be dynamic in solution by ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The dynamic behaviour is based on the fast and permanent inversion of the sulfido and selenido bridges. The tellurido bridges are rigid on the time scale of ¹³C NMR spectroscopy.

The homologue [Mn₂(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇(ax‐H₂PCy)] ( 5 ) leads under the same reaction conditions to the corresponding products [Mn₂(AuPR₃)₂(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(μ₄‐PCy)(CO)₆] (R = Ph ( 6 ), Et ( 8 )). Also [MnRe(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(CO)₇(ax/eq‐H₂PCy)] ( 9 ) reacts under formation of [MnRe(AuPR₃)₂(μ‐H)(μ‐PCy₂)(μ₄‐PCy)(CO)₆] (R = Ph ( 10 ), Et ( 11 )). All new cluster complexes were identified by means of ¹H‐NMR, ³¹P‐NMR and ν(CO)‐IR spectroscopic measurements. 2 , 4 and 10 have also been characterized by single crystal X‐ray structure analyses with crystal parameters: 2 triclinic, space group P 1, a = 12.256(4) Å, b = 12.326(4) Å, c = 24.200(6) Å, α = 83.77(2)°, β = 78.43(2)°, γ = 68.76(2)°, Z = 2; 4 monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 12.851(3) Å, b = 18.369(3) Å, c = 40.966(8) Å, β = 94.22(1)°, Z = 8; 10 triclinic, space group P 1, a = 12.083(1) Å, b = 12.185(2) Å, c = 24.017(6) Å, α = 83.49(29)°, β = 78.54(2)°, γ = 69.15(2)°, Z = 2. The trapezoid arrangement of the metal atoms in 2 and 4 show in the solid structure trans‐positioned an open and a closed Re…Au edge. In solution these edges are equivalent and, on the ³¹P NMR time scale, represent two fluxional Re–Au bonds in the course of a topomerization process. Corresponding dynamic properties were observed for the dimanganese compounds 6 and 8 but not for the related MnRe clusters 10 and 11 . 2 and 4 are the first examples of cluster compounds with a permanent Re–Au bond valence isomerization.

Oxorhenium(V)‐ and Tricarbonylrhenium(I) Complexes with Substituted Pyrazoles as Products of the Degradation of Hydrotrispyrazolylborates

Hydrotris(3, 5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)borate and hydrotris(3‐phenylpyrazol‐1‐yl)borate decompose during reactions with [ReOCl₃(PPh₃)₂] and [NEt₄]₂[Re(CO)₃Br₃], respectively. The generated pyrazole ligands form complexes with the rhenium(V) oxo and the rhenium(I ) tricarbonyl cores. X‐ray crystal structures of the oxo‐bridged dimer [Cl(PPh₃)(O)Re(μ‐O)(μ‐Me₂pz)₂Re(O)(HMe₂pz)Cl] ( 1 ) and [Re(CO)₃(HPhpz)₂(Phpz)] ( 2 ) (HMe₂pz = 3, 5‐dimethylpyrazole, HPhpz = 3‐phenylpyrazole) show that the substituted pyrazoles can readily deprotonate and act as monodentate or bridging anionic ligands. Re‐N bond lengths between 2.09 and 2.14Å have been observed for the bridging and between 2.12 and 2.23Å for the terminal pyrazole ligands.
