A Boron‐Fluorinated Tris(pyrazolyl)borate Ligand (FTp*) and Its Mono‐ and Dinuclear Copper Complexes [Cu(FTp*)2] and [Cu2(FTp*)2]: Synthesis,Structures, and DFT Calculations

Reaction of [Si(3,5‐Me₂pz)₄] ( 1 ) with [Cu(MeCN)₄][BF₄] ( 2 ) gave the mono‐ and dinuclear copper complexes [Cu₂(^FTp*)₂] ( 3 ) and [Cu(^FTp*)₂] ( 4 ). Both complexes contain the so‐far unprecedented boron‐fluorinated ^FTp* ligand ([FB(3,5‐Me₂pz)₃]^? with pz=pyrazolyl) originating from 1 , acting as a pyrazolyl transfer reagent, and the [BF₄]^? counter anion of 2 , serving as the source of the {BF} entity. The solid‐state structures as well as the NMR and EPR spectroscopic characteristics of the complexes were elaborated. Pulsed gradient spin echo (PGSE) experiments revealed that 3 retains (almost entirely) its dimeric structure in benzene, whereas dimer cleavage and formation of acetonitrile adducts, presumably [Cu(^FTp*)(MeCN)], is observed in acetonitrile. The short Cu???Cu distance of 269.16 pm in the solid‐state is predicted by DFT calculations to be dictated by dispersion interactions between all atoms in the complex (the Cu?Cu dispersion contribution itself is only very small). As revealed by cyclic voltammetry studies, 3 shows an irreversible (almost quasi‐reversible at higher scan rates) oxidation process centred at E^pa=?0.23 V (E⁰_1/2=?0.27 V) (vs. Fc/Fc⁺). Oxidation reactions on a preparative scale with one equivalent of the ferrocenium salt [Fc][BF₄] (very slow reaction) or air (fast reaction) furnished blue crystals of the mononuclear copper(II) complex [Cu(^FTp*)₂] ( 4 ). As expected for a Jahn–Teller‐active system, the coordination sphere around copper(II) is strongly distorted towards a stretched octahedron, in accordance with EPR spectroscopic findings.

Reaction of 2,2-Dimethylpropylidynephosphine with Molybdenum Pentachloride; Crystal Structure of [Mo₂Cl₆(α,α′-dipyridyl)₃] 2,2-Dimethylpropylidynephosphine and molybdenum pentachloride dissolved in POCl₃ react with oxydation of the phosphorus and reduction of the molybdenum atom to give the alkyne complex [Mo₂Cl₄(μ-Cl)₂(μ-H₉C₄? C?C? C₄H₉)(OPCl₃)₂]. Addition of α,α′-dipyridyl or of methyltriphenylphosphonium chloride in dichloromethane results in a displacement of the ligands POCl₃ and H₉C₄? C?C? C₄H₉ from this complex and in the formation of [Mo₂Cl₆(dipy)₃] or [(H₅C₆? )₃P? CH₃]₃[Mo₂Cl₉]. Besides the latter compound small amounts of [(H₅C₆? )₃P?

Zur Reaktion von Makrozyklen mit Lanthanoiden. II. Die Strukturen von [K(thf)3]2[(C22H28N4)2Sm2] · 4THF und [(C22H22N4)Co] · DME

On the Reaction of Macrocycles with Lanthanoids. II. The Crystal Structures of [K(thf)₃]₂[(C₂₂H₂₈N₄)₂Sm₂] · 4 THF and [(C₂₂H₂₂N₄)Co] · DME In a complicated redox reaction [(TMTAA)K₂] and [SmI₂(thf)₂] form the polynuclear metal complex [K(thf)₃]₂[(TMTAT)₂Sm₂]. This complex crystallizes with four molecules THF per formula unit and its structure was determined by single crystal X-ray investigation (spacegroup P2₁/c (No. 14), z = 4, a = 998.0(2) pm, = b = 2618.3(6) pm, c = 1619.4(3) pm, β = 96.52(2)°).

Additionally two [K(thf)₃]⁺ fragments are bonded to this central unit, and therefor coordination number seven results for the K⁺ ion. [TMTAA]^2? is not reduced by [Cp₂Co] in a similar reaction. The monomeric paramagnetic complex [(TMTAA)Co] (μ_eff = 2,76 μ_B) is formed instead. The structure reveils a square planar coordination of the Co atom by the four N atoms of the TMTAA ligand (spacegroup C2/c (No. 15), z = 4, a = 1945.1(4) pm, b = 1165.6(2) pm, c = 1144.7(2) pm, β = 116.38(1)°).
