Bis[trans‐dibromo(2,2‐di­methylpropane‐1,3‐diamine‐κ2N,N′)chromium(III)] dibromide hydrogen perchlorate hexahydrate

In the title compound, [CrBr₂(C₅H₁₄N₂)₂]₂Br₂·HClO₄·6H₂O, there are two independent Cr^III complex cations which are conformational isomers of each other. The Cr atoms lie respectively on a center of symmetry and on a mirror plane and have octahedral environments, coordinated by the N atoms of two 2,2‐di­methylpropane‐1,3‐diamine ligands and by two Br atoms in trans positions. The Cr—N and Cr—Br bond lengths are in the ranges 2.078 (3)–2.089 (3) and 2.4495 (9)–2.5017 (9) Å, respectively. The crystal structure consists of two Cr^III complex cations, two Br^? anions, a (ClO₄)^? anion and an [H₁₃O₆]⁺ hydrogen‐bonded cluster cation.     

A new heteroleptic oxalate‐based compound: poly[[2‐(aminomethyl)pyridine]di‐μ6‐oxalato‐chromium(III)potassium(I)]

The title compound, [KCr(C₂O₂)₂(C₆H₈N₂)]_n, was obtained from aqueous solution and analyzed with single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction at 100 K. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c and displays a three‐dimensional polymeric architecture built up by bimetallic oxalate‐bridged Cr^III–K helical chains linked through centrosymmetric K₂O₂ units to yield a sheet‐like alternating P/M arrangement which looks like that of the previously described two‐dimensional [NaCr(ox)₂(pyim)(H₂O)]·2H₂O [pyim is 2‐(pyridin‐2‐yl)imidazole; Lei et al. (2006). Inorg. Chem. Commun. 9 , 486–488]. The Cr^III ions in each helix have the same chirality. The infinite neutral sheets are eclipsed with respect to each other and are held together by a hydrogen‐bonding network involving 2‐(aminomethyl)pyridine H atoms and oxalate O atoms. Each sheet gives rise to channels of Cr₄K₄ octanuclear rings and each resultant hole is occupied by a pair of 2‐(aminomethyl)pyridine ligands with partial overlap. The shortest Cr...Cr distance [5.593 (4) Å] is shorter than usually observed in the K–M^III–oxalate family.     

Poly[aquaneodymium(III)‐μ5‐2‐oxido‐5‐sulfonatobenzoato]

The title compound, [Nd(C₇H₃O₆S)(H₂O)]_n or [Nd(SSA)(H₂O)]_n (H₃SSA is 5‐sulfosalicylic acid), was synthesized by the hydrothermal reaction of Nd₂O₃ with H₃SSA in water. The compound forms a three‐dimensional network in which the asymmetric unit contains one Nd^III atom, one SSA ligand and one coordinated water mol­ecule. The central Nd^III ion is eight‐coordinate, bonded to seven O atoms from five different SSA ligands [Nd—O = 2.405 (4)–2.612 (4) Å] and one aqua O atom [Nd—OW = 2.441 (4) Å].

Isolation of New Disilanylene-bridged Bis（cyclopentadienyl）tetracarbonyldiiron Complexes and Molecular Structure of [η^5, η^5-C5H4SiMe（SiMePh2）C5H4]Fe2（CO）2（μ-CO）2

1,2-Diphenyl-1,2-dimethyldisilanylene-bridged bis-cyclopentadienyl complex[η~5,η~5-C_5H_4PhMeSiSiMePh-C_5H_4]Fe_2(CO)_2(μ-CO)_2(1)was synthesized by a modified procedure,from which the trans-isomer 1b that was pre-viously difficult to obtain has been isolated for the first time.More interestingly,two new regio-isomers[η~5,η~5C_5H_4SiMe(SiMePh_2)C_5H_4]Fe_2(CO)_2(μ-CO)_2(2)and [η~5,η~5-C_5H_4Me_2SiSiPh_2C_5H_4]Fe_2(CO)_2(μ-CO)_2(3)were occa-sionally obtained during above process,the novel structures of which opened up new options for further study ofthis type of Si—Si bond-containing transition metal complexes.The molecular structure of 2 has been determinedby the X-ray diffraction method.     

Two complexes derived from the reaction of M3(CO)12 clusters (M = Ru,Os) with the 9‐(triphenylphosphonio)fluorenide ylide: tricarbonyl[9‐(triphenylphosphonio)fluorenylidene]ruthenium and nonacarbonyl‐μ3‐fluorenylidene‐μ2‐hydrido‐triangulo‐triosmium(III)

Tricarbonyl[9‐(triphenylphosphonio)fluorenylidene]ruthenium, [Ru(C₃₁H₂₁P)(CO)₃], (I), is mononuclear, consisting of a single Ru centre, to which three carbonyl units and a chelating μ₃‐9‐(triphenylphosphonio)fluorenide ylide bind to generate a distorted octahedral RuC₆ core. Nonacarbonyl‐μ₃‐fluorenylidene‐μ₂‐hydrido‐triangulo‐triosmium(III), [Os₃H(C₁₃H₇)(CO)₉], (II), is trinuclear and presents a triangular triosmium core, nine carbonyl ligands and one fluorenylidene ligand. Two of the Os^III centres present a highly distorted hexacoordinated Os(Os₂C₄) core and are in turn bridged by a hydride ligand. The remaining Os^III cation is octacoordinated, with an Os(Os₂C₆) nucleus. The crystal structures of both compounds are the result of nondirectional forces, much resembling the packing of weakly interacting quasi‐spherical units, viz. the molecules themselves in (I) and centrosymmetric π–π‐bonded dimers in (II).     

Komplexe mit Antimon‐Liganden: [tBu2(Cl)SbW(CO)5], [tBu2(OH)SbW(CO)5], O[SbPh2W(CO)5]2, E[SbMe2W(CO)5]2 (E = Se,Te), cis‐[(Me2SbSeSbMe2)2Cr(CO)4]

Complexes Containing Antimony Ligands: [^tBu₂(Cl)SbW(CO)₅], [^tBu₂(OH)SbW(CO)₅], O[SbPh₂W(CO)₅]₂, E[SbMe₂W(CO)₅]₂ (E = Se, Te), cis‐[(Me₂SbSeSbMe₂)₂Cr(CO)₄] Syntheses of [^tBu₂(Cl)SbW(CO)₅] ( 1 ), [^tBu₂(OH)SbW(CO)₅] ( 2 ), O[SbPh₂W(CO)₅]₂ ( 3 ), Se[SbMe₂W(CO)₅]₂ ( 4 ), cis‐[(Me₂SbSeSbMe₂)₂Cr(CO)₄] ( 5 ) Te[SbMe₂W(CO)₅]₂ ( 6 ) and crystal structures of 1 – 5 are reported.     

(6‐Oxido‐2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydropyrimidine‐5‐carboxylato‐κ2O5,O6)bis[2‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole‐κ2N2,N3]manganese(II) monohydrate

In the title compound, [Mn(C₅H₂N₂O₄)(C₁₂H₉N₃)₂]·H₂O, the Mn^II centre is surrounded by three bidentate chelating ligands, namely, one 6‐oxido‐2‐oxo‐1,2‐dihydropyrimidine‐5‐carboxylate (or uracil‐5‐carboxylate, Huca²⁻) ligand [Mn—O = 2.136 (2) and 2.156 (3) Å] and two 2‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1H‐benzimidazole (Hpybim) ligands [Mn—N = 2.213 (3)–2.331 (3) Å], and it displays a severely distorted octahedral geometry, with cis angles ranging from 73.05 (10) to 105.77 (10)°. Intermolecular N—H...O hydrogen bonds both between the Hpybim and the Huca²⁻ ligands and between the Huca²⁻ ligands link the molecules into infinite chains. The lattice water molecule acts as a hydrogen‐bond donor to form double O...H—O—H...O hydrogen bonds with the Huca²⁻ O atoms, crosslinking the chains to afford an infinite two‐dimensional sheet; a third hydrogen bond (N—H...O) formed by the water molecule as a hydrogen‐bond acceptor and a Hpybim N atom further links these sheets to yield a three‐dimensional supramolecular framework. Possible partial π–π stacking interactions involving the Hpybim rings are also observed in the crystal structure.     

η5‐(3)‐1‐Methyl‐1,2‐dicarbollyl‐η5‐2′,5′‐dimethylpyrrolylcobalt(III)

In the title compound, (η⁵‐2,5‐di­methyl­pyrrolyl)[(7,8,9,10,11‐η)‐7‐methyl‐7,8‐dicarba‐nido‐undecaborato]­cobalt(III), [3‐Co{η⁵‐[2,5‐(CH₃)₂‐NC₄H₂]}‐1‐CH₃‐1,2‐C₂B₉H₁₀] or [Co(C₃H₁₃B₉)(C₆H₈N)], the Co^III atom is sandwiched between the pentagonal faces of the pyrrolyl and dicarbollide ligands, resulting in a neutral mol­ecule. The C—C distance in the dicarbollide cage is 1.649 (3) Å.     

Aqua(2,2′‐di­amino‐4,4′‐bi‐1,3‐thia­zole‐κ2N,N′)(imino­diacetato‐κ3O,N,O′)­chromium(III) chloride mono­hydrate

Crystals of the title compound, [Cr(C₄H₅NO₄)(C₆H₆N₄S₂)(H₂O)]Cl·H₂O, consist of Cr^III complex cations, Cl⁻ counter‐ions and lattice water mol­ecules. The complex cation assumes an octahedral coordination geometry, formed by a tridentate imino­di­acetate dianion (IDA), a di­amino­bi­thia­zole (DABT) mol­ecule and a water mol­ecule. The planar DABT group chelates the Cr^III ion with normal Cr—N distances [2.0574 (17) and 2.0598 (17) Å], but the DABT mol­ecule is inclined to the coordination plane by a dihedral angle of 17.23 (7)°. In the monodentate carboxylate groups of the IDA ion, the coordinated C—O bonds [1.288 (3) and 1.284 (3) Å] are much longer than the uncoordinated C—O bonds [1.222 (3) and 1.225 (3) Å].     

Untersuchungen zur Darstellung von [CpxSb{M(CO)5}2] (Cpx = Cp,Cp*; M = Cr,W)

Investigations of the Synthesis of [Cp^xSb{M(CO)₅}₂] (Cp^x = Cp, Cp*; M = Cr, W) The reaction of CpSbCl₂ with [Na₂{Cr₂(CO)₁₀}] leads to the chlorostibinidene complex [ClSb{Cr(CO)₅}₂(thf)] ( 1 ), whereas the reaction of CpSbCl₂ with [Na₂{W₂(CO)₁₀}] results in the formation of the complexes [ClSb{W(CO)₅}₃] ( 2 ), [Na(thf)][Cl₂Sb{W(CO)₅}₂] ( 3 ), [ClSb{W(CO)₅}₂(thf)] ( 4 ) and [Sb₂{W(CO)₅}₃] ( 5 ). The stibinidene complex [CpSb{Cr(CO)₅}₂] ( 6 ) is obtained by the reaction of [ClSb{Cr(CO)₅}₂] with NaCp, while its Cp* analogue [Cp*Sb{Cr(CO)₅}₂] ( 7 ) is formed via the metathesis of Cp*SbCl₂ with [Na₂{Cr₂(CO)₁₀}]. The products 2 , 3 , 4 and 7 are additionally characterised by X‐ray structure analyses.     

Study of the [Cr(H2O)5NO]2+ Complex via Density Functional Theory

On the basis of density functional theory, the spin ground state of chromium‐nitrosyl complex [Cr(H₂O)₅NO]²⁺ (S = 1/2) is studied via B3LYP hybrid method. Its vibrational frequencies, atomic charges, and spin densities are analyzed. The excitation energies are evaluated using the CIS method. Our calculated N‐O stretching frequency and excitation energies are in good agreement with the IR and UV‐vis data. The related Cr^I(H₂O)₆⁺, Cr^II(H₂O)₆²⁺, and Cr^III(H₂O)₆³⁺ complexes are employed as the reference compounds to determine the characteristics of the central Cr. Results indicate that the effective Cr oxidation state is close to Cr(I).     

Insight into the structures of [M(C5H4I)(CO)3] and [M2(C12H8)(CO)6] (M = Mn and Re) containing strong I...O and π(CO)–π(CO) interactions

The compounds tricarbonyl(η⁵‐1‐iodocyclopentadienyl)manganese(I), [Mn(C₅H₄I)(CO)₃], (I), and tricarbonyl(η⁵‐1‐iodocyclopentadienyl)rhenium(I), [Re(C₅H₄I)(CO)₃], (III), are isostructural and isomorphous. The compounds [μ‐1,2(η⁵)‐acetylenedicyclopentadienyl]bis[tricarbonylmanganese(I)] or bis(cymantrenyl)acetylene, [Mn₂(C₁₂H₈)(CO)₆], (II), and [μ‐1,2(η⁵)‐acetylenedicyclopentadienyl]bis[tricarbonylrhenium(I)], [Re₂(C₁₂H₈)(CO)₆], (IV), are isostructural and isomorphous, and their molecules display inversion symmetry about the mid‐point of the ligand C[triple‐bond]C bond, with the (CO)₃M(C₅H₄) (M = Mn and Re) moieties adopting a transoid conformation. The molecules in all four compounds form zigzag chains due to the formation of strong attractive I...O [in (I) and (III)] or π(CO)–π(CO) [in (I) and (IV)] interactions along the crystallographic b axis. The zigzag chains are bound to each other by weak intermolecular C—H...O hydrogen bonds for (I) and (III), while for (II) and (IV) the chains are bound to each other by a combination of weak C—H...O hydrogen bonds and π(Csp²)–π(Csp²) stacking interactions between pairs of molecules. The π(CO)–π(CO) contacts in (II) and (IV) between carbonyl groups of neighboring molecules, forming pairwise interactions in a sheared antiparallel dimer motif, are encountered in only 35% of all carbonyl interactions for transition metal–carbonyl compounds.

Reacting stoichiometric amounts of 1‐(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene­carboxylic acid and [Ti(η⁵‐C₅HMe₄)₂(η²‐Me₃SiC[triple‐bond]CSiMe₃)] produced the title carboxyl­atotitanocene complex, [{μ‐1κ²O,O′:2(η⁵)‐C₅H₄CO₂}{2(η⁵)‐C₅H₄P(C₆H₅)₂}{1(η⁵)‐C₅H(CH₃)₄}₂Fe^IITi^III] or [FeTi(C₉H₁₃)₂(C₆H₄O₂)(C₁₇H₁₄P)]. The angle subtended by the Ti/O/O′ plane, where O and O′ are the donor atoms of the κ²‐carboxy­late group, and the plane of the carboxyl‐substituted ferrocene cyclo­penta­dienyl is 24.93 (6)°.     

A photochromic dinuclear compound: aquatetrakis(μ‐2,3‐diphenylprop‐2‐enoato)bis(2,3‐diphenylprop‐2‐enoato)ethanolbis(1,10‐phenanthroline)dilanthanum(III)

The title dinuclear complex, (aqua‐1κO)tetrakis(μ‐2,3‐diphenylprop‐2‐enoato‐1:2κ²O:O′)bis(2,3‐diphenylprop‐2‐enoato)‐1κO;2κO‐(ethanol‐2κO)bis(1,10‐phenanthroline)‐1κ²N,N′;2κ²N,N′‐dilanthanum(III), [La₂(C₁₅H₁₁O₂)₆(C₁₂H₈N₂)₂(C₂H₅OH)(H₂O)], contains two similar La^III centres with distorted [LaO₆N₂] bicapped triganol–prismatic coordination polyhedra formed by six phenylcinnamate (PCA⁻ or 2,3‐diphenylprop‐2‐enoate) ligands, two 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen) ligands, a coordinating ethanol molecule and a coordinating water molecule. The two metal centres are bridged by four μ‐PCA⁻ ligands, with the remaining two PCA⁻ ligands coordinated in a monodentate fashion. The noncoordinated carboxylate O atoms on the terminal PCA⁻ ligands form O—H...O hydrogen bonds with the coordinated solvent molecules. Each La centre is also coordinated by a bidentate phen ligand. The PCA⁻ ligands all adopt syn–syn orientations, with the two phenyl rings presenting dihedral angles of about 70°. The compound displays photochromic behaviour both in solution and in the solid state.     

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität des Ferrioarsaalkens [(η5‐C5Me5)(CO)2FeAs=C(Ph)NMe2]

Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity of the Ferrioarsaalkene [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs=C(Ph)NMe₂] Reaction of equimolar amounts of the carbenium iodide [Me₂N(Ph)CSMe]I and LiAs(SiMe₃)₂ · 1.5 THF afforded the thermolabile arsaalkene Me₃SiAs = C(Ph)NMe₂ ( 1 ), which in situ was converted into the black crystalline ferrioarsaalkene [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs=C(Ph)NMe₂)] ( 2 ) by treatment with [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeCl]. Compound 2 was protonated by ethereal HBF₄ to yield [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs(H)C(Ph)NMe₂]BF₄ ( 3 ) and methylated by CF₃SO₃Me to give [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs(Me)C(Ph)NMe₂]‐ SO₃CF₃ ( 4 ). [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs[M(CO)_n]C(Ph)NMe₂] ( 5 : [M(CO)_n] = [Fe(CO)₄]; 6 : [Cr(CO)₅]) were isolated from the reaction of 2 with [Fe₂(CO)₉] or [{(Z)‐cyclooctene}Cr(CO)₅], respectively. Compounds 2 – 6 were characterized by means of elemental analyses and spectroscopy (IR, ¹H, ¹³C{¹H}‐NMR). The molecular structure of 2 was determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis.     

Trinuclear [CoIII2–LnIII] (Ln=Tb,Dy) Single‐Ion Magnets with Mixed 6‐Chloro‐2‐Hydroxypyridine and Schiff Base Ligands

The Schiff base ligand N1,N3‐bis(3‐methoxysalicylidene)diethylenetriamine (H₂valdien) and the co‐ligand 6‐chloro‐2‐hydroxypyridine (Hchp) were used to construct two 3d–4f heterometallic single‐ion magnets [Co₂Dy(valdien)₂(OCH₃)₂(chp)₂] ? ClO₄ ? 5 H₂O ( 1 ) and [Co₂Tb(valdien)₂(OCH₃)₂(chp)₂] ? ClO₄ ? 2 H₂O ? CH₃OH ( 2 ). The two trinuclear [Co^III₂Ln^III] complexes behave as a mononuclear Ln^III magnetic system because of the presence of two diamagnetic cobalt(III) ions. Complex 1 has a molecular symmetry center, and it crystallizes in the C2/c space group, whereas complex 2 shows a lower molecular symmetry and crystallizes in the P2₁/c space group. Magnetic investigations indicated that both complexes are field‐induced single‐ion magnets, and the Co^III₂–Dy^III complex possesses a larger energy barrier [74.1(4.2) K] than the Co^III₂–Tb^III complex [32.3(2.6) K].     

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität von η3‐1,2‐Diphosphaallylkomplexen sowie von [{(η5‐C5H5)(CO)2W–Co(CO)3}{μ‐AsCH(SiMe3)2}(μ‐CO)]

Syntheses, Structure and Reactivity of η³‐1,2‐Diphosphaallyl Complexes and [{(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W–Co(CO)₃}{μ‐AsCH(SiMe₃)₂}(μ‐CO)] Reaction of ClP=C(SiMe₂iPr)₂ ( 3 ) with Na[Mo(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₅)] afforded the phosphavinylidene complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo=P=C(SiMe₂iPr)₂] ( 4 ) which in situ was converted into the η¹‐1,2‐diphosphaallyl complex [η⁵‐(C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η³‐tBuPPC(SiMe₂iPr)₂] ( 6 ) by treatment with the phosphaalkene tBuP=C(NMe₂)₂. The chloroarsanyl complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₃M–As(Cl)CH(SiMe₃)₂] [where M = Mo ( 9 ); M = W ( 10 )] resulted from the reaction of Na[M(CO)₃(η⁵‐C₅H₅)] (M = Mo, W) with Cl₂AsCH(SiMe₃)₂. The tungsten derivative 10 and Na[Co(CO)₄] underwent reaction to give the dinuclear μ‐arsinidene complex [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂W–Co(CO)₃{μ‐AsCH(SiMe₃)₂}(μ‐CO)] ( 11 ). Treatment of [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η³‐tBuPPC(SiMe₃)₂}] ( 1 ) with an equimolar amount of ethereal HBF₄ gave rise to a 85/15 mixture of the saline complexes [(η⁵‐C₅H₅)(CO)₂Mo{η²‐tBu(H)P–P(F)CH(SiMe₃)₂}]BF₄ ( 18 ) and [Cp(CO)₂Mo{F₂PCH(SiMe₃)₂}(tBuPH₂)]BF₄ ( 19 ) by HF‐addition to the PC bond of the η³‐diphosphaallyl ligand and subsequent protonation ( 18 ) and/or scission of the PP bond by the acid ( 19 ). Consistently 19 was the sole product when 1 was allowed to react with an excess of ethereal HBF₄. The products 6 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 18 and 19 were characterized by means of spectroscopy (IR, ¹H‐, ¹³C{¹H}‐, ³¹P{¹H}‐NMR, MS). Moreover, the molecular structures of 6 , 11 and 18 were determined by X‐ray diffraction analysis.     

Double Carbonyl Substitution in [BrMn(CO)5]: Reaction with Benzoylhydrazine and Synthesis of fac‐[Mn(Br)(CO)3(BHD)]·2THF (BHD = OC(Ph)—NH—NH2)

[BrMn(CO)₅] reacts with benzoylhydrazine in THF occurring substitution of two CO groups by a Metal‐ligand ring to give fac‐[Mn(Br)(CO)₃(BHD)]·2THF (BHD = C₆H₅CONHNH₂). The novel compound shows a distorted octahedral arrangement at the manganese atom, with three nearly linear carbonyl ligands in a fac arrangement, illustrating another example that the CO group in position trans to the bromine ligand in [BrMn(CO)₅] presents the most intensive metal‐CO backbonding effect of all the CO groups of the parent complex, leading to the formation of a facial (and not meridional) isomer, even in the presence of a bidentate ligand like benzydrazide. X‐ray measures of yellow crystals showed that the title complex belong to space group P2₁/c, with the asymmetric unit containing one crystallographically independent [Mn(Br)(CO)₃(BHD)] complex and two tetrahydrofurane solvate molecules. The new compound represents heretofore the unique occurrence of the complexing single bidentate ligand ‐O=C(Ph)‐N(H)‐N(H)₂‐ with an octahedral coordination at the Mn^I atom supported chiefly by carbonyl groups.
