Synthesis, Crystal Structure, and Properties of the Complexes [(H₂O)Cl₄Os≡N‐IrCl(C₅Me₅)(AsPh₃)], [(Ph₃Sb)Cl₄Os≡N‐IrCl(C₅Me₅)(SbPh₃)], [(Ph₃Sb)₂Cl₃Os≡N‐IrCl(COD)] and [{(Me₂PhP)₂(CO)Cl₂Re≡N}₂ReNCl₂(PMe₂Ph)] The dinuclear complexes [(H₂O)Cl₄Os≡N‐IrCl(C₅Me₅)(AsPh₃)]·H₂O ( 1 ·H₂O), [(Ph₃Sb)Cl₄Os≡N‐IrCl(C₅Me₅)(SbPh₃)] ( 2 ), and [(Ph₃Sb)₂Cl₃Os≡N‐IrCl(COD)] ( 3 ) result from the reaction of the nitrido complexes [(Ph₃As)₂OsNCl₃] and [(Ph₃Sb)₂OsNCl₃] with the iridium compounds [IrCl₂(C₅Me₅)]₂ and [IrCl(COD)]₂ in dichloromethane. 1 crystallizes as 1 ·H₂O in form of green platelets in the monoclinic space group Cm and a = 1105.53(6); b = 1486.76(9); c = 2024.88(10) pm, β = 97.191(4)°, Z = 4. The formation of 1 in air involves a ligand exchange, and the coordination of a water molecule in trans position to the Os‐N triple bond. The resulting complex fragments [(H₂O)Cl₄Os≡N] and [IrCl(C₅Me₅)(AsPh₃)] are connected by an asymmetric nitrido bridge Os≡N‐Ir. The nitrido bridge is characterised by an Os‐N‐Ir bond angle of 173.7(7)°, and distances Os‐N = 168(1) pm and Ir‐N = 191(1) pm. 2 crystallizes in clumped together brown platelets with the space group and a = 1023.3(3), b = 1476.2(3), c = 1872.5(6) pm, α = 74.60(2), β = 73.84(2), γ = 76.19(2)°, Z = 2. In 2 the asymmetric nitrido bridge Os≡N‐Ir joins the two complex fragments [(Ph₃Sb)Cl₄Os≡N] and [IrCl(C₅Me₅)(SbPh₃)], which are formed by a ligand exchange reaction. 3 forms dark green crystals with the triclinic space group and a = 1079.4(1), b = 1172.3(1), c = 1696.7(2) pm, α = 101.192(9),β = 92.70(1), γ = 92.61(1)°, Z = 2. The distances in the almost linear nitrido bridge (Os≡N‐Ir = 175.3(7)°) are Os‐N = 171(1) pm and Ir‐N = 183(1) pm. The reaction of [ReNCl₂(PMe₂Ph)₃] with [Mo(CO)₃(NCMe)₃] unexpectedly affords the trinuclear complex [{(Me₂PhP)₂(OC)Cl₂Re≡N}₂ReNCl₂(PMe₂Ph)] ( 4 ) as the main product. It forms triclinic brown crystals with the composition 4 ·2THF and the space group (a = 1382.70(7), b = 1498.58(7), c = 1760.4(1) pm, α = 99.780(7), β = 99.920(7), γ = 114.064(6)°, Z = 2). In the trinuclear complex, the central fragment, [ReNCl₂(PMe₂Ph)] is joined in trans position to two nitrido complexes [(Me₂PhP)₂(CO)Cl₂Re≡N], giving an almost linear Re≡N‐Re‐N≡Re arrangement. The bond angles and distances in the nitrido bridges are Re‐N‐Re = 167.8(3)°, Re‐N = 171.1(8) pm and 204.2(8) pm; and Re‐N‐Re = 168.1(4)°, Re‐N = 170.9(9) and 203.5(9) pm respectively. As expected, the Re‐N bond length to the terminal nitrido ligand on the central Re atom is much shorter at 161.2(9) pm than the triple bonds of the asymmetric bridges.

[Re{NB(C6F5)3}(Et2dtc)2]2 – Dimerisierung infolge der Ausbildung einer Nitridobrücke

[Re{NB(C₆F₅)₃}(Et₂dtc)₂]₂ – Dimerization as a Consequence of the Formation of a Nitrido Bridge The title compound is formed from [ReN(Et₂dtc)₂] with five‐coordinate Re atom upon reaction with B(C₆F₅)₃. As a consequence of the formation of a nitrido bridge between Re and B the structural trans influence of the nitrido ligand decreases and its trans position which is not occupied in the edduct becomes available for co‐ordination. The dimer is built up by two [Re{NB(C₆F₅)₃}(Et₂dtc)₂] units which are linked by weak bonds between the metal and each one sulphur atom of the neighbouring unit (Re–S: 2.856(6) and 2.835(6) Å, respectively).
