Die metall-kohlenstoff-bindung in carben- und carbin-komplexen. aussagen der 183W13C-kopplungen

The nuclear spin coupling constants¹J(¹⁸³W¹³C) and in some cases ²J(¹⁸³W¹³C) and ³J(¹⁸³W¹³C) are determined for 10 tungsten carbene and 9 tungsten carbyne complexes. ¹J is of analytical importance, being characteristically greater for WC than for WC bonds. This is due to different hybridisation at the carbon atom, and provides information about bond angles and polarities of WC and WCR units.Substituents R and R' in (CO)₅WCRR' and X(CO)₄WCR as well as the halogens X lead to minor changes in ¹J. These changes are comparable to those of ¹J(¹³C¹H) in correspondingly substituted methanes. Unexpectedly ¹J in_ creases with X = Cl, Br, I. ²J(¹⁸³W¹³C) though being much smaller than ¹J reflects different hydridisation at the β carbon atom.     

Barreleneiridium(I) complexes. Crystal structures of [Ir(Me3TFB)(η6-C6H4Me2)]ClO4 and [Ir(TFB)(η5-PhNPh2)]BF4·CH2Cl2 (TFB = tetrafluorobenzobarrelene)

A new series of cationic areneiridium(I) complexes of formula [Ir(barrelene)(arene)]⁺ or [Ir(barrelene)(PhNRPh)]⁺ (R= Ph or H) have been synthesized from neutral iridium complexes of the type [IrY(barrelene)]_x (barrelene = Me₃TFB, Y = Cl or OMe (x = 2), Y = acac (x = 1); barrelene = TFB, Y = OMe (x = 2), Y = acac (x = 1)). The crystal structures of [Ir(Me₃TFB)(1,4-C₆H₄Me₂)]ClO₄ and [Ir(TFB)(PhNPh₂)]BF₄·CH₂Cl₂ have been determined by X-ray diffraction. They crystallize in the space groups Pbca and Pna2₁ respectively with lattice constants of 17.6947(11), 15.8072(10), 16.0019(11) Å and 9.8059(2), 20.8097(9), 14.3367(4) Å. Final R factors were 0.063 and 0.042 for the observed data. Both complexes show a staggered arrangement between the arene and the TFB moieties and deviation from planarity of the coordinated arene ligands. In the second complex the IrC and NC distances, the CNC angle, the type of arene puckering, and the spectroscopic data indicate a distortion of the coordinated arene towards a η⁵-coordinated iminocyclohexadienyl form.     

Synthesis and characterisation of chelated (1-cyanoethyl)ruthenium(II) carbonyl complexes

The reaction between acrylonitrile and the RuH bond in HRu(CO)Cl(PPh₃)₃ results in the formation of a binuclear ruthenium(II) complex having chlorine bridges which are easily broken by sodio-derivatives of bidentate chelating ligands giving mononuclear hexacoordinated ruthenium(II) compounds. The RuC bond in these new complexes has been found to be stable towards nucleophilic reagents. The stereochemistry for these complexes has been suggested on the basis of IR, ¹H and ³¹P NMR spectra.     

Mechanism of the thermal decomposition of (η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2(η1-acenaphthenyl)

The complexes (η⁵-C₅H₅)Fe(CO)₂(η¹-acenaphthenyl) (I), (η⁵-C₅H₅)Fe(CO)₂ (η¹-trans-β-deuterioacenaphthenyl) (II), and (η-C₅D₅)Fe(CO)₂, (η¹-acenaphthenyl) (XIII) have been prepared and their thermal decomposition studied in vacuo and in refluxing toluene. All three complexes decompose to produce mixtures of acenaphthene (VII), acenaphthylene (VIII), and [C₅H₅Fe(CO)₂]₂ (VI). Biacenaphthenyl (IX) is also obtained from the thermolysis of I in toluene. The formation of alkene VIII, and, to a lesser extent, alkane VII is suppressed by external CO. Thermolysis of I in toluene-d₈ and of II in vacuo and in toluene produces deuterium-enriched VII. The acenaphthene generated from the decomposition of XIII also contains deuterium. The above observations are accomodated by a mechanistic scheme involving competing β-elimination, ironcarbon bond homolysis to produce the acenaphthenyl radical, and CpH abstraction by an undetermined pathway.     

Complexes of 4-hydroxyphenylthiocarboxyhydrazide with iron(II), cobalt(II,III), nickel(II), copper(II) and zinc(II)

Mössbauer, visible, e.s.r., i.r.,¹H and¹³C n.m.r. spectral studies. The bonding and stereochemistry of the complexes are discussed.

NMR investigation of bis(2,3-alkanedione dioximato)-bis(pyridine)cobalt(III) iodide complexes: 1H and 13C NMR spectra and 13C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements

The complexes of trans-[Co(III)(R,CH₃-dioxH)₂(py)₂]I2 (R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) were investigated in solution by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra and ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements. The ¹H and ¹³C-resonances of the R = C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) groups were shifted to higher field than those of the free ligands by the complexation; it was attributable to the ring current shielding due to the axial pyridine ligands of the complexes. ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation times were interpreted as due to movement of the axial pyridine ligands as if they twist around the CoN (pyridine nitrogen) bond axis and the above R groups were moving segmentally. These segmental movements allowed the R groups to approach closely toward the axial pyridine ring plane to experience the ring current shielding.     

A hydrogen-1 nuclear magnetic resonance,mass spectral and extended Hückel study of some olefin complexes of rhodium(I) and iridium(I) and the crystal and molecular structure of η4-2,4-dimethylpenta-1,4-diene(η5-formylcyclopentadienyl)rhodium(I)

A ¹H NMR study of monosubstituted η-cyclopentadienyl-rhodium(I) complexes of type LLRh(C₅H₄X) and -iridium(I) complexes of type L₂Ir(C₅H₄X) (L = ethene, LL = 1,3- or 1,5-diolefin; X = C(C₆H₅)₃, CHO, or COOCH₃) has been carried out. For complexes of both metals in which the neutral ligand is ethene or a non-conjugated diolefin the NMR spectra of the cyclopentadienyl protons are unusual in that H(2), H(5) resonate to high field either at room temperature or below.The corresponding NMR spectra for the cyclopentadienyl ring protons of complexes where the neutral ligand is a conjugated diene are, with one exception, normal.A single crystal X-ray structural analysis of (η⁴-2,4-dimethylpenta-1,4-diene)(η⁵-formylcyclopentadienyl)rhodium(I) (which exhibits an abnormal ¹H NMR spectrum) reveals substantial localisation of electron density in the C(3)C(4) Cp ring bond (1.283(33) Å) which may be consistent with a contribution from an ‘allyl-ene’ rotamer to the ring—metal bonding scheme. An extended Hückel calculation with self consistent charge iteration was performed on this complex.The results predict a greater Mulliken overlap population for the C(3)C(4) bond in the cyclopentadienyl ring and show that the localisation is dependent on both the Cp ring substituent and the nature of the diolefin. The mass spectral fragmentation patterns of some representative diene complexes of iridium(I) and rhodium(I) are presented.     

Untersuchung der diastereomerenumwandlung an η3-allylpalladiumphosphinkomplexen mittels 2D-1H-NMR-spektroskopie

The diastereomers of the complexes η³-allyl-cis- and -trans-2,3-diphenyl-1,3-oxaphosphorian—palladium chloride formed from chiral phosphines can be detected in the NMR spectra (1H, ³¹P) below 300 K). The cross-peaks of the ²D-¹H-NOE-NMR spectra display a transformation of diastereomers through conversion into the σ-allyl form together with rotation both around the CPd-axis and the CC-axis of the σ-allyl group.     

The molecular structure of a three-coordinate palladium(II)-styrene complex [Pd(η5-C5H5)(PEt3)(styrene)]BF4

The molecular structure of a three-coordinate palladium(II)-styrene complex, [Pd(η⁵-C₅H₅)(PEt₃)(styrene)]BF₄ has been determined by means of X-ray diffraction. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/c, with four formula units in a cell of dimensions: a 10.229(3), b 11.262(3), c 18.760(5) Å and β 103.77(2)°. The structure was solved by the heavy atom method, and refined by the least-squares procedure to R = 0.050 for 3635 observed reflections. The palladium atom is surrounded by the cyclopentadienyl group, the triethylphosphine ligand and the olefinic bond of styrene in the cationic complex. In the palladiumstyrene bonding, the olefinic bond is inclined by 77.3° to the coordination plane defined by the Pd and P atoms and the center of the cyclopentadienyl ring (PdC(1) 2.176(6), PdC(2) 2.234(5) and C(1)C(2) 1.369(8) Å).     

95Mo NMR spectral studies on seven-coordinate molybdenum(II) isocyanide complexes

The ⁹⁵Mo NMR spectra of a series of seven-coordinate molybdenum(II) isocyanide complexes of the types [Mo(CNR)_7-nL_n](PF₆)₂ (R = CH₃, CHMe₂, CMe₃, C₆H₁₁, CH₂Ph; L = py, bpy, Me₂bpy, phen, dppe, P-n-Bu₃; n = 0,1,2) [Mo(CNC-Me₃)₆X]PF₆ (X = Cl, Br, I) and [{Mo(CNCMe₃)₄(NN)}₂(μ-CN)](PF₆)₃ (NN = bpy, Me₂bpy, phen) have been studied. The ⁹⁵Mo chemical shift range for this group of complexes is about 1100 ppm. An increase in the size of the R group attached to the isocyanide ligand generally tends to shield the ⁹⁵Mo nucleus. Replacement of the isocyanide ligand with a phosphorus ligand also increases the shielding, whereas the replacement of isocyanide with a heterocyclic nitrogen donor leads to deshielding by 800–900 ppm. This group of complexes shows a normal halogen dependence, i.e. replacement of Cl^? by Br^? and I^? increases the shielding of the ⁹⁵Mo nucleus. The cyano-bridged cations [{Mo(CNCMe₃)₄(NN)}₂(μ-CN)]³⁺ (NN = bpy, Me₂bpy, or phen) show two ⁹⁵Mo NMR signals, one for the molybdenum coordinated to the carbon of the bridging CN and one for the N-coordinated molybdenum. Comparison of the chemical shifts and linewidths of the cyano-bridged species with those of the corresponding mononuclear molybdenum(II) complexes [Mo(CNCMe₃)₅(NN)](PF₆)₂ leads to the assignment of the more deshielded signal to the N-coordinated molybdenum. The ¹⁴N and ³¹P NMR spectra for these complexes have also been measured, as have the ¹³C NMR spectra of the pairs of complexes [Mo(CNCMe₃)₅(NN)](PF₆)₂ and [{Mo(CNCMe₃)₄(NN)}₂(μ-CN)](PF₆)₃ (NN = bpy or phen). The ¹⁸³W NMR spectra for [W(CNR)₅(bpy)](PF₆)₂ (R = CMe₃ and CH₂Ph), show that the δ(¹⁸³W)/δ(⁹⁵Mo) chemical shift ratios for isocyanide complexes are different from the ratio found for M⁰ and M^VI.     

Structure, 31P and 13C chemical shift anisotrophy of (CH3)3P, (CH3)3PO, (CH3)3PS and (CH3)3PSe as determined by liquid crystal NMR spectroscopy

The ¹³P and ¹³C spectra of the triply ¹³C labelled molecules (CH₃)₃P, (CH₃)₃PO, (CH₃)₃PS and (CH₃)₃PSe oriented in a nematic phase are reported. The CPC bond angles have been measured. The ¹³P chemical shift tensor shows a large anisotropy except in the case of (CH₃)₃P. The abnormal large value observed for the PSe bond length suggests a large anisotropy of the ¹J(PSe) spin coupling.     

195Pt, 119Sn and 31P NMR studies of alkyl,aryl and acyl trichlorostannate complexes of platinum(II). The crystal structure of trans-[Pt(SnCl3)(COC6H5)(PEt3)2]

¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹Sn and ³¹P NMR characteristics of the complexes trans-[Pt(SnCl₃)(carbon ligand)(PEt₃)₂] (1a-1e) are reported, (carbon ligand = CH₃ (1a), CH₂Ph (1b), COPh (1c), C₆Cl₅ (1d), C₆Cl₄Y (e); Y = meta- and para-NO₂, CF₃, Br, H, CH₃, OCH₃, or Pt(SnCl₃)(PEt₃)₂. The values of ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹Sn) vary from 2376 to 11895 Hz with the COPh ligand having the smallest and the C₆Cl₅ ligand the largest value, making a total range for this coupling constant, when the dimer syn-trans-[PtCl(SnCl₃)(PEt₃)]₂ is included, of ca. 33000 Hz. In the meta- and para-substituted phenyl complexes ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹Sn) (a) is greater for electron-withdrawing substituents, (b) varies more for the meta-substituted derivatives (5634 to 7906 Hz) than for the para analogues (6088 to 7644 Hz) and (c) has the lowest values when the Pt(SnCl₃)(PEt₃)₂ group is the meta- or para-substituent. The direction of the change in ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹Sn) is opposite to that found for ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹P). For the aryl complexes linear correlations are observed between δ(¹¹⁹Sn), ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹Sn), ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ³¹P), ¹J(¹¹⁹Sn, ³¹P) and the Hammett substituent constant σⁿ. δ(¹¹⁹Sn) and ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹Sn) are related linearly to v(Pt-H) in the complexes trans-[PtH(C₆H₄Y)(PEt₃)₂]; δ(¹¹⁹Sn) and δ(¹H) (hydride) are also linearly related. Based on ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹Sn), the acyl ligand is suggested to have a very large NMR trans influence. The differences in the NMR parameters for (1a-e) are rationalized in terms of differing σ- and π-bonding abilities of the carbon ligands.The structure of 1c has been determined by crystallographic methods. The complex has a slightly distorted square planar geometry with trans-PEt₃ ligands. Relevant bond lengths (Å) and bond angles (°) are: PtSn, 2.634(1), PtP, 2.324(4) and 2.329(4), PtC, 2.05(1); PPtP, 170.7(6), SnPtC, 173.0(3), SnPtP, 92.1(1), 91.7(1), PPtC, 88.8(4) and 88.3(4). The PtSn bond separation is the longest yet observed for square-planar platinum trichlorostannate complexes, and would be consistent with a large crystallographic trans influence of the benzoyl ligand. The PtSn bond separation is shown to correlate with ¹J(¹⁹⁵Pt, ¹¹⁹Sn).     

13C NMR spectra of some methylplatinum(IV) complexes

The ¹³C NMR spectra of some methylplatinum(IV) Schiff-base and related complexes have been recorded. The results are interpreted in terms of the differing effects of various donor atoms on a platinumcarbon bond in the trans position.     

Synthesis and characterization of copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of chelating ligands derived from 2,6-diacetylpyridine and phenylalanine/tyrosine/histidine/histamine and 2-(2-aminoethyl)-pyridine

The copper(II) and zinc(II) complexes of Schiff base ligands L¹ and L² derived from the condensation of 2,6-diacetylpyridine with 2 mol of phenylalanine methyl ester or tyrosine ethyl ester have been prepared. The IR spectral data indicate that the ester group undergoes hydrolysis in the formation of the Zn(II) complexes more readily than that of the Cu(II). The ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of the Zn(II) complexes of L¹ and L² as well as those derived from condensation of 2,6-diacetylpyridine and histidine methyl ester (L³), histamine (L⁴) and 2-(2-aminoethyl)-pyridine (L⁵) were examined. Differences in IR spectral properties as well as in chemical shifts of similar ¹H and ¹³C nuclei in these five types of complexes have been attributed to significant Zn(II)-carboxylate oxygen interactions in complexes of L¹ and L².     

Reduction of copper (II) chloride by molybdenum and rhenium biscyclopentadienyl hydrides. Investigation of the crystal and molecular structure of [(η5-C5H5)2Re]+[CuCl2]−

The reduction of copper (II) chloride by molybdenum and rhenium biscyclopentadienyl hydrides upon their interaction in donor-type solvents has been studied by NMR, X-ray diffraction, and magnetic methods. It is established that the ionic complex [(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂Re]⁺[CuCl₂]^? forms ortho rhombic crystals with a - 13.696(2) Å, b = 7.317(1) Å, c = 5.969(1) Å, space group Pm2₁n, Z = 2. The cyclopentadienyl rings make a bent-sandwich with an angle between the ring centres and Re atom of 150.1°; the ClCuCl angle being 174.8° and the ReCu minimum distance 4.346(29) Å. The solution of [(η⁵-C⁵H₅)²Re]⁺ [CuCl₂]^? seems to activate the CH bond of the C₅H₅ rings, which results in the addition of the [(C₅H₅)(C₅H₄)ReH]⁺ hydride ion.     

The crystal and molecular structure of η5-cyclopentadienyliodomethyl(methylthio)carbene-(triphenylphosphine)iridium(III) iodide

The crystal and molecular structure of η⁵-cyclopentadienyliodomethyl(methylthio)carbene(triphenylphosphine)iridium(III) iodide [IrI{C(Me)SMe}(η⁵-C₅H₅)(PPh₃)]I has been determined from three dimensional X-ray data in order to clarify the contribution of the α-sulphur atom to the bonding in this carbenoid complex.The compound crystallizes in space group Pbc2₁ with four formula units in a cell of dimensions a 9.745(6), b 15.201(8), and c 17.364(10) Å. Least-squares refinement of the structure has led to the final discrepancy index R = 0.047 for the 1655 symmetry-independent observable reflections. The coordination geometry about the iridium atom is approximately tetrahedral; the coordination positions are occupied by the η⁵-C₅H₅ ring center, the phosphorus, the iodide I(1) and the carbon C(6) of the C(Me)SMe ligand (IrRc 1.89, IrP 2.280(7), Ir(1) 2.651(2) and IrC(6) 2.03(3) Å).The bonding of the C(Me)SMe group indicates that this complex must be formulated as a C(Me)SMe complex of iridium(III).     

Intramolecular metallation of o-carboranylphosphine-palladium(II) and -platinum(II) complexes

Preparation of trans-[P^cb₂MCl₂]-type complexes (P^cb= o-HCB₁₀H₁₀CCH₂PPh₂ M = Pd, Pt), which readily undergo intramolecular metallation through the BH bonds of the carborane cage to form exocyclic compounds involving a $\text{PCCBM}$ bond system, is described. Both monomeric compounds, trans-[MCl(B-P)P^cb], and bridged complexes, such as [Pd₂Cl₂(BP)₂], are formed, where (BP) is intramolecular-metallated carborane phosphine. The bridging bond is readily cleaved under the action of various ligands (pyridine, PEt₃, etc.) to form monomeric compounds.     

Multinuclear Magnetic Resonance Study of Zinc(II) and Cadmium(II) Complexing with Isothiocyanate

A study of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) complexes with isothiocyanate ion has been completed, using a low-temperature, multinuclear magnetic resonance technique that permits the observation of separate resonance signals for bound and free ligand, and Cd(II) metal ion. The Zn²⁺–NCS^– complexes were studied by ¹H, ¹³C, and ¹⁵N NMR spectroscopy. In the ¹H spectra, the intensity of the coordinated water signal, corresponding to a Zn(II) hydration number of six in the absence of NCS^–, decreases dramatically as this anion is added, indicating the complexing process involves more than a simple 1:1 ligand replacement. The ¹³C and ¹⁵N NMR spectra reveal signals for four species, most reasonably assigned to a series of tetrahedrally coordinated Zn²⁺–NCS^– complexes. In the Cd²⁺–NCS^– solution spectra, the ¹³C and ¹⁵N signals for four complexes also are observed and they are three line patterns, corresponding to a doublet from ¹¹³Cd J-coupling, and a dominant central peak, resulting from bonding to magnetically inactive Cd isotopes. The ¹¹³Cd spectra, showing signals for four complexes, correlate well in all respects with the ¹³C and ¹⁵N results, including coupling in specific cases. The spectral results for both metal ions reflect binding at the nitrogen atom of NCS^–, with the complexes changing from an octahedral to a tetrahedral configuration when doing so. Confirming evidence for these conclusions also was provided by several infrared measurements of these metal–ion systems.     

Synthesis, spectroscopic studies and crystal structure of the Schiff base ligand L derived from condensation of 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde and 3,3'-diaminobenzidine and its complexes with Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II): Comparative DNA binding studies of L and its Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes

The Schiff base ligand, N,N'-bis-(2-thiophenecarboxaldimine)-3,3'-diaminobenzidine (L) obtained from condensation of 2-thiophenecarboxaldehyde and 3,3'-diaminobenzidine, was used to synthesize the complexes of type, [M2L2]Cl4 [M=Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Hg(II)]. The newly synthesized ligand (L) was characterized on the basis of the results of elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, mass spectroscopic studies and single crystal X-ray crystallography. The characteristic resonance signals in 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectra indicated the presence of azomethine group as a result of condensation reaction. The stoichiometry, bonding and stereochemistries of complexes were ascertained on the basis of results of elemental analysis, magnetic susceptibility measurements, molar conductance and spectroscopic studies viz., FT-IR, 1H and 13C NMR, UV-vis and EPR. EPR, UV-vis and magnetic moment data revealed an octahedral geometry for complexes with distortion in Cu(II) complex and conductivity data show 1:2 electrolytic nature of complexes. Absoption and fluorescence spectroscopic studies supported that Schiff base ligand L and its Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes exhibited significant binding to calf thymus DNA. The complexes exhibited higher affinity to calf thymus DNA than the free Schiff base ligand L.     

The dependence of 13C-1H coupling constants on CCC bond angles

The relationship between one-bond ¹³C-¹H coupling constants and internuclear CCC bond angles (_n) in hydrocarbons of the type R₂CH₂ is best approximated by a quadratic expression.
