Halogen oxidation of mixed amine(tricarbonyl)chromiums

Summary Bromine and iodine oxidation of some mixed amine-(tricarbonyl)chromiums Cr(CO)₃(L-L)(amine) (L-L=o-phen or 2,2-bipy; amine=cyclohexylamine, piperidine and n-butylamine), at ambient temperature lead to the formation of [Cr(CO)₂(L-L)(amine)Br]Br₃ and [Cr(CO)₂(L-L)(amine)I]I complexes which have been characterised by elemental analysis, i.r. spectra, conductivity and magnetic moment measurements.     

Halogen oxidation and halogen photoelimination chemistry of a platinum-rhodium heterobimetallic core

The heterobimetallic complexes, PtRh(tfepma)(2)(CN(t)Bu)X(3) (X = Cl, Br), are assembled by the treatment of Pt(cod)X(2) (cod =1,5-cyclooctadiene) with {Rh(cod)X}(2), in the presence of tert-butylisonitrile (CN(t)Bu) and tfepma (tfepma = bis(trifluoroethoxyl)phosphinomethylamine). The neutral complexes contain Pt-Rh single bonds with metal-metal separations of 2.6360(3) and 2.6503(7) ? between the square planar Pt and octahedral Rh centers for the Cl and Br complexes, respectively. Oxidation of the XPt(I)Rh(II)X(2) cores with suitable halide sources (PhICl(2) or Br(2)) furnishes PtRh(tfepma)(2)(CN(t)Bu)X(5), which preserves a Pt-Rh bond. For the chloride system, the initial oxidation product orients the platinum-bound chlorides in a meridional geometry, which slowly transforms to a facial arrangement in pentane solution as verified by X-ray crystal analysis. Irradiation of the mer- or fac-Cl(3)Pt(III)Rh(II)Cl(2) isomers with visible light in the presence of olefin promotes the photoelimination of halogen and regeneration of the reduced ClPt(I)Rh(II)Cl(2) core. In addition to exhibiting photochemistry similar to that of the chloride system, the oxidized bromide cores undergo thermal reduction chemistry in the presence of olefin with zeroth-order olefin dependence. Owing to an extremely high photoreaction quantum yield for the fac-ClPt(I)Rh(II)Cl(2) isomer, details of the X(2) photoelimination have been captured by transient absorption spectroscopy. We now report the first direct observation of the photointermediate that precedes halogen reductive elimination. The intermediate is generated promptly upon excitation (<8 ns), and halogen is eliminated from it with a rate constant of 3.6 × 10(4) s(-1). As M-X photoactivation and elimination is the critical step in HX splitting, these results establish a new guidepost for the design of HX splitting cycles for solar energy storage.     

Modified and environmentally friendly oxidation of phosphorane ylides to vicinal tricarbonyls using unsupported moist Oxone in dichloromethane

Abstract

Modified and eco-friendly oxidation of phosphorane ylides to the corresponding vicinal tricarbonyls (VTC) using unsupported moist Oxone in dichloromethane at room temperature is described. This green oxidation protocol is simple, mild, and highly efficient to operate, and allowing a chemoselective preparation of VTC from various phosphorane ylides without tedious workup procedures of extraction/drying process in excellent yields.

Fluxional behavior of 7-substituted cycloheptatriene iron tricarbonyls

The reaction between C₇H₇Fe(CO)₃^/t- and Me₃MC1, M = Si and Ge, produces 7-substituted cycloheptatriene iron tricarbonyl derivatives. Both compounds, unlike the parent molecule, are fluxional. It is shown that an oscillatory motion of the Fe(CO)₃ group, having the effect of a 1,3-shift with respect to the ring, is responsible for the observed fluxionality.     

Ionization and appearance potential measurements in arene chromium tricarbonyls

The ionisation potentials and the appearance potentials for ions arising from the loss of carbonyl groups as well as certain other low-energy fragmentation ions have been measured for a series of substituted arene chromium tricarbonyls. The values obtained are found to correlate very well, for the loss of one and two carbonyl groups, with both the CO force constant k and the Hammett σ_p function and substituent on the benzene ring. The appearance potentials of the ions arising by the loss of three carbonyl groups do not exhibit a high correlation. Arene⁺ ions are found to occur at energies intermediate between those for the loss of two and three carbonyl groups.The various effects observed are discussed in terms of a model which involves definite contributions from both σ- and π- bonding of carbonyl groups in the gaseous cations.     

Halogen oxidation and nitrosylation of some aldimine and ketimine carbonyl complexes of chromium and molybdenum

Summary The halogen oxidation and nitrosylation of cis-[(SB)M-(CO)₄] [M = Cr or Mo, SB = N,N-ethylenebis(p-tolualideneimine), N,N-ethylenebis(p-N,N-dimethylaminobenzalideneimine) or N,N-ethylenebis(methyl-p-methoxyphenylketimine); M = Mo, SB = N,N-ethylenebis-(cinnamylideneimine) or N,N-ethylenebis(methyl-p-methylphenylketimine)] have been studied. Halogenation of [(SB)Cr(CO)₄] yielded [(SB)CrX₂] (X = Cl, Br or I) where-as [(SB)Mo(CO)₄] gave [(SB)Mo(CO)₃X₂] (X = Br or I) and [(SB)MoX _x ] (X = I, n = 2; X = Cl or Br, n = 4). NOCl produced [(SB)Cr(NO)₂Cl₂] and [(SB)Mo(CO)₂(NO)Cl] when reacted with the corresponding [(SB)M(CO)₄]. The complexes were characterized by physico-chemical and spectroscopic measurements.     

Gas-phase toluene oxidation over platinum-containing mixed oxides

The gas-phase toluene oxidation was studied over platinum-containing mixed oxides derived from hydrotalcite-like compounds with high specific surface area. Both the temperature of the reaction and toluene and oxygen initial concentrations proved to influence toluene oxidation rate. Activation energy of 107 and 248 kJ/mol was found for toluene and oxygen, respectively, with an oxygen dissociative model.

Reactions of Halogen Azides

Until recently, the explosive nature of halogen azides made these compounds unsuitable for preparative uses and greatly impeded investigation of their physical properties. Reactions of ClN₃ and BrN₃ with metal halides, metal carbonyls, and organometallic compounds to from metal azide halides, nitride halides, carbonyl azide halides, and alkylmetal azides were reported only very recently. The stability relationships of the halogen azides are discussed.     

The crystal and molecular structure of acetylcyclopentadienyl-manganese and -rhenium tricarbonyls

The X-ray investigation of the title compounds has shown that in CH₃COC₅H₄Mn(CO)₃ the orientation of CO groups with respect to the cyclopentadienyl ring is almost the same as in the unsubstituted manganese compound whereas in CH₃COC₅H₄Re(CO)₃ the orientation is different to that in C₅H₅Re(CO)₃, so that the molecule as a whole becomes less symmetrical. Unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl-manganese and -rhenium tricarbonyls are isostructural and entirely analogous; that the two acetyl derivatives are not isostructural is possibly caused by conformational differences. Both molecules have the “piano stool” configuration with the CH₃CO group almost coplanar with the cyclopentadienyl ring plane. Interatomic distances and bond angles in these molecules are typical for this type of compound.     

A Theoretical Study of the Halogen Bond between Heteronuclear Halogen and Benzene

Halogen bonds play an important role in many fields, such as biological systems, drug design and crystal engineering. In this work, the structural characteristics of the halogen bond between heteronuclear halogen XD (ClF, BrCl, IBr, ICl, BrF and IF) and benzene were studied using density functional theory. The structures of the complexes between heteronuclear halogen and benzene have Cs symmetry. The interaction energies of the complexes between heteronuclear halogen XD (ClF, BrCl, IBr, ICl, BrF and IF) and benzene range from −27.80 to −37.18 kJ/mol, increasing with the increases in the polarity between the atoms of X and D, and are proportional to the angles of a between the Z axis and the covalent bond of heteronuclear halogen. The electron density (ρ) and corresponding Laplacian (∇²ρ) values indicate that the interaction of the heteronuclear halogen and benzene is a typical long-range weak interaction similar to a hydrogen bond. Independent gradient model analysis suggests that the van der Waals is the main interaction between the complexes of heteronuclear halogen and benzene. Symmetry-adapted perturbation theory analysis suggests that the electrostatic interaction is the dominant part in the complexes of C₆H₆⋯ClF, C₆H₆⋯ICl, C₆H₆⋯BrF and C₆H₆⋯IF, and the dispersion interaction is the main part in the complexes of C₆H₆⋯BrCl, C₆H₆⋯IBr.
