Ligands derived from tetrathiafulvalene: building blocks for multifunctional materials

The last decade has witnessed many advances in the coordination chemistry of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF). Various ligands, in which a metal-binding functionality is attached to the TTF unit, have been synthesized and used for the preparation of metal complexes. This Perspective summarizes the main types of TTF-containing ligands and their metal complexes and outlines the potential for the use of these building blocks in the design and assembly of multifunctional molecular materials.     

Transition metal complexes based on thiophene-dithiolene ligands

The chemistry of transition metal dithiolene complexes based on thiophene-dithiolene ligands (TD) is reviewed, from the ligand synthesis and complex preparation to the molecular structure and solid state physical properties of different compounds based on them. The ligands considered are based mainly either on simple thiophene-dithiolates (α-tpdt = 2,3-thiophenedithiolate, dtpdt = 4,5-dihydro-2,3-thiophenedithiolate, and tpdt = 3,4-thiophenedithiolate), or in more extended and delocalised dithiolate ligands (α-tdt = 3-({5-[(2-cyanoethyl)thio]-2-thieno[2,3-d][1,3]dithiol-2-ylidene-1,3-dithiol-4-yl}thio)propanenitrile and dtdt = 3-{5-[(2-cyanoethyl)thio]-2-(5,6-dihydrothieno[2,3-d][1,3]dithiol-2-ylidene-1,3-dithiol-4-yl)thio}propanenitrile) that besides the thiophenic ring also incorporates a fused TTF moiety. Dithiolene complexes based on ligands containing appended thiophenic units will also be briefly considered. The structural variability of these complexes that in addition to the usual square planar coordination geometry, M(TD)₂, can also present dimeric, [M(TD)₂]₂, or cluster structures such as [Cu₄(TD)₃] and [Ni₄(TD)₆], is addressed. The role of the thiophene group and its ability to enhance electronic delocalisation from the metal dithiolene core throughout the ligand and to establish solid state networks of S?S interactions is discussed. The importance of these complexes as useful building blocks to prepare molecular materials with very interesting magnetic and transport properties, ranging from metamagnets to Single Component Molecular Metals, is illustrated by different compounds based on them.     

A new class of dianionic sulfur-ylides: alkylenediazasulfites

The compounds [[(thf)Li2-[H2CS(NtBu)2]]2] (1) and [((thf)Li2[(Et)-(Me)CS(NtBu)2])2] (2) can be synthesized in a two-step reaction. Firstly addition of an alkyllithium to sulfur diimide gives the diazaalkylsulfinate [RS(NtBu)2] (R =Me, sBu). In a second step the alpha-carbon atom in R is metalated with one equivalent of methyllithium to give the S-ylides. This new class of compounds can be rationalized as sulfite analogues, in which two oxygen atoms are each isoelectronically replaced by a NtBu group and the remaining oxygen atom is replaced by a CR2 group. Similar to Corey's S-ylides (R2(O)S+-CR2) and Wittig's phosphonium ylides (R3P+ - -CR2), these molecules contain a positively charged sulfur atom next to a carbanionic center. Therefore nucleophilic addition reactions of the carbon atom are feasible. The reaction of a sulfur diimide with the anionic carbon center in [H2CS-(NtBu)2]2- gives the intermediate alkylbis(diazasulfinate) [(tBuN)2SCH2S(NtBu)2]2-. The acidity of the hydrogen atoms at the bridging CH2 group is high enough to give, upon deprotonation, the [(tBuN)2SCHS(NtBu)2]3- trianion in [[(thf)Li3[(tBuN)2SCHS(NtBu)2]]2] (3). In [(Et)(Me)CS(NtBu)2]2 the nucleophilic carbon atom is sterically hindered and transimidation instead of deprotonation is observed. In a complex redox process [(thf)6Li6S((NtBu)3S]2] is recovered. The two new classes of compounds broaden the rich coordination chemistry of the triazasulfites by the introduction of a hard carbon center.     

Molecular and Crystal Structure Diversity,and Physical Properties of Tetrathiafulvalene Derivatives Substituted with Various Aryl Groups through Sulfur Bridges

A library of tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) derivatives ( TTF‐1 – TTF‐47 ) bearing aryl groups attached through sulfur bridges has been created. The peripheral aryl groups exert a significant influence on both the electronic and crystallographic properties of the resulting TTFs. These TTFs display broad absorption bands at 400–500 nm caused by intramolecular charge‐transfer transitions between the aryl groups and central TTF core, and their first redox potentials increase with increasing electron‐withdrawing ability of the aryl groups. In their crystal structures (22 examples), the central TTF cores adopt various conformations, including chair, half‐chair, boat, and planar conformations. Moreover, the peripheral aryl groups exhibit multiple alignment modes with respect to the central TTF core, caused by their rotation about the two C? S bonds of the sulfur bridges. The packing motifs of these TTFs depend on both the nature of the aryl groups and their spatial alignment modes. Driven by intermolecular van der Waals forces and π–π interactions between the aryl groups and between the aryl groups and the TTF core, these TTFs adopt various packing structures. As a typical example, TTF‐14 , an achiral molecule, adopts a helical chain stack through intermolecular atomic close contacts. Moreover, the molecular geometries and packing motifs of these TTFs are sensitive to environmental variation, as exemplified by TTF‐28 , which adopts three distinct crystal modifications with diverse molecular geometries and stacking modes under different crystallization conditions. This work indicates that these TTFs are potential candidates as electronic materials, as well as functional building blocks for supramolecular assembly.     

Tetrathiafulvalene hydrazone an efficient precursor of various chelating electroactive ligands

Novel bidentate electroactive ligands containing one or two tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) cores as redox active unit have been synthesized thanks to the condensation of various carbonyl derivatives with TTF hydrazone. The electron donating ability of these redox active ligands determined by cyclic voltammetry is described together with the investigations of their molecular structures by X-ray diffraction studies. The chelating ability of these ligands has been exemplified through the coordination to molybdenum carbonyl fragment or the complexation to difluoroboron moiety.     

Rearrangement of symmetrical dicubane clusters into topological analogues of the P cluster of nitrogenase: nature's choice?

Reaction schemes have been developed that lead to clusters having the topology of the PN cluster of nitrogenase. The single cubane clusters [(Tp)MFe3S4Cl3]z (M = Mo, z = 1-; M = V, z = 2-) react with PEt3 to give [(Tp)MFe3S4(PEt3)3]1+, which are reduced to the neutral edge-bridged double cubanes [(Tp)2M2Fe6S8(PEt3)4] with highly reduced (2[MFe3S4]1+) cores. Reaction of these clusters in acetonitrile with (Et4N)(HS) results in the formation of [(Tp)2Mo2Fe6S9(SH)2]3- and [(Tp)2V2Fe6S9(SH)2]4-. X-ray structures of the Et4N+ salts reveal the bridging pattern M2Fe6(mu2-S)2(mu3-S)6(mu6-S) in which two cuboidal MFe3(mu3-S)3 units share the common bridge atom mu6-S and are externally bridged by two mu2-S atoms. The M sites possess trigonal octahedral, and the Fe sites, distorted tetrahedral coordination. Hydrosulfide ligands and sulfide atoms simulate terminal cysteinate ligation and mu2 bridges, respectively, in the protein-bound cluster Fe8S7(mu2-SCys)2(SCys)4. The synthetic clusters have the same bridging pattern as the PN cluster and approach congruency with it. These clusters are the first molecular topological analogues of a PN cluster. Like the latter, they are substantially reduced (majority of Fe(II)).

Tetrathiafulvalene crowns: redox-switchable ligands

A series of redox-responsive ligands that associate the electroactive tetrathiafulvalene core with polyether subunits of various lengths has been synthesized. X-ray structures are provided for each of the free ligands. The requisite structural criteria for reaching switchable ligands are satisfied for the largest macrocycles, that is, planarity of the 1,1',3,3'-tetrathiafulvalene (TTF) pi system and correctly oriented coordinating atoms. The ability of these ligands to recognize various metal cations as a function of the cavity size has been investigated by various techniques (LSIMS, 1H NMR, and UV/Vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry). These systems exhibit an unprecedented high coordination ability among TTF crown ethers. Their switchable ligating properties have been confirmed by cyclic voltammetry, and metal-cation complexation has been illustrated by X-ray structures of three of the corresponding metal complexes (Pb2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+). Solid-state structures of these complexes display original packing modes with channel-like arrangements.     

Polyimido sulfur anions and ylides

Isovalent electronic replacement of the oxygen atoms in the classic SO(n)(m-) molecules and ions by NR imido groups yields the polyimido sulfur species S(NR)(n)(m-), n = 2, 3, 4 and m = 0, 2. The crucial cornerstone to the richness of SN chemistry is the access to sulfur diimides S(NR)(2) and triimides S(NR)(3). While the syntheses of the first are well established the preparations of the second were hazardous and of poor yields. A new facile, safe and elaborated route to give quantitative yields is presented. It involves the synthesis of triimido sulfites S(NR)(3)(2-), which are versatile ligands in their own right. With a trigonal pyramidal shape, containing three basal negatively charged nitrogen atoms, they are rare examples of dianionic tripodal ligands. Various (mixed) metal complexes are presented. Lithium coordination at the N-S-N bisections converts the dianion into the inverse tripod ligand Li(3)(NR)(3)S(+), capable of anion solvation. Among others, this motif stabilizes unprecedented monomeric methyllithium and lithium enolate. In the reaction of sulfur diimides S(NR)(2) and triimides S(NR)(3) with organometallics the diimidosulfinates RS(NR)(2)(-) and triimidosulfonates RS(NR)(3)(-) are synthesised. Both display a rich coordination chemistry to various metals, which is discussed in the review. Furthermore, the S-organo substituent can be modified in various ways. It can be a linker between two SN moieties or can be shaped to a R(2)N- or R(2)P-donating side arm of any form or length to give hemilabile scorpionates. Their ample application in metal coordination and anion solvation is presented. These monoanions can be converted to the related ylides by deprotonation of the S-alkyl group. The diimidosulfur(iv) ylides (R(2)C)S(NR)(2)(2-) and triimidosulfur(vi) ylides (R(2)C)S(NR)(3)(2-) contain the CR(2) methylene group, isoelectronic to the NR imido group. Their coordination behaviour and reactivity are discussed. In addition to the rich SN chemistry the S-N and S-C bonding is elucidated by means of theoretical and experimental charge density investigations and topological analyses on the basis of multipole refinement. As the most important result hypervalency at sulfur and S[double bond, length as m-dash]N(C) double bonding are ruled out as superfluous concepts.
