Thionitrosylkomplexe des Osmiums. Die Kristallstruktur von AsPh4[OsCl4(NS)2Cl]

Thionitrosyl Complexes of Osmium. Crystal Structure of AsPh₄[OsCl₄(NS)₂Cl] The reaction of osmium pentachloride with trithiazyl chloride (NSCl)₃ yields the thiazylchloride complex [OsCl₄(NSCl)₂], from which the thionitrosyl complex AsPh₄[OsCl₄(NS)₂Cl] is obtained by reaction with AsPh₄Cl in CH₂Cl₂. From this, the neutral thionitrosyl complex [OsCl₄(NS)₂] forms by chloride abstraction with gallium trichloride. The crystal structure of AsPh₄[OsCl₄(NS)₂Cl] was determined and refined with the aid of X-ray diffraction data (R = 0.033, 2161 reflexions). It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with four formula units per unit cell. The lattice constants are a = 1735, b = 1058, c = 1578 pm and β 95.64°.

Interconversion of Metallabenzenes and Cyclic η2‐Allene‐Coordinated Complexes

Treatment of the osmabenzene [Os{CHC(PPh₃)CHC(PPh₃)CH} Cl₂(PPh₃)₂]Cl ( 1 ) with excess 8‐hydroxyquinoline produces monosubstituted osmabenzene [Os{CH C(PPh₃) CHC(PPh₃)CH}(C₉H₆NO)Cl(PPh₃)]Cl ( 2 ) or disubstituted osmabenzene [Os{CHC(PPh₃)CHC(PPh₃)CH} (C₉H₆NO)₂]Cl ( 3 ) under different reaction conditions. Osmabenzene 2 evolves into cyclic η²‐allene‐coordinated complex [Os{CH?C(PPh₃)CH=(η²‐C?CH₂)}(C₉H₆NO)(PPh₃)₂]Cl ( 4 ) in the presence of excess PPh₃ and NaOH, presumably involving a P? C bond cleavage of the metallacycle. Reaction of 4 with excess 8‐hydroxyquinoline under air affords the S_NAr product [(C₉H₆NO)Os{CHC(PPh₃)CHCHC} (C₉H₆NO)(PPh₃)]Cl ( 5 ). Complex 4 is fairly reactive to a nucleophile in the presence of acid, which could react with water to give carbonyl complex [Os{CH?C(PPh₃)CH?CH₂}(C₉H₆NO) (CO)(PPh₃)₂]Cl ( 6 ). Complex 4 also reacts with PPh₃ in the presence of acid and results in a transformation to [Os {CHC(PPh₃)CHCHC}(C₉H₆NO)Cl (PPh₃)₂]Cl ( 7 ) and [Os{CH?C(PPh₃) CH=(η²‐C?CH(PPh₃))}(C₉H₆NO) Cl(PPh₃)]Cl ( 8 ). Further investigation shows that the ratio of 7 and 8 is highly dependent on the amount of the acid in the reaction.

The structures consist of PPh₄⁺ ions and of anions that are situated on twofold crystallographic rotation axes. The anions show positional disorder, statistically assuming two different orientations with probabilities of 50% each; in the case of [Co(N₃)₃Cl]^2?, the Cl atom is superimposed statistically with an azido group, whereas the [Mn(N₃)₄]^2? ion is tilted by about 20° from the ideal position to two sides of the crystallographic axis. In both compounds the cation form layers and the anions are located between the layers.     

Nucleophilic Aromatic Addition Reactions of the Metallabenzenes and Metallapyridinium: Attacking Aromatic Metallacycles with Bis(diphenylphosphino)methane to Form Metallacyclohexadienes and Cyclic η2‐Allene‐Coordinated Complexes

The reactions of phosphonium‐substituted metallabenzenes and metallapyridinium with bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (DPPM) were investigated. Treatment of [Os{CHC(PPh₃)CHC(PPh₃)CH}Cl₂(PPh₃)₂]Cl with DPPM produced osmabenzenes [Os{CHC(PPh₃)CHC(PPh₃)CH}Cl₂{(PPh₂)CH₂(PPh₂)}]Cl ( 2 ), [Os{CHC(PPh₃)CHC(PPh₃)CH}Cl{(PPh₂)CH₂(PPh₂)}₂]Cl₂ ( 3 ), and cyclic osmium η²‐allene complex [Os{CH?C(PPh₃)CH?(η²‐C?CH)}Cl₂{(PPh₂)CH₂(PPh₂)}₂]Cl ( 4 ). When the analogue complex of osmabenzene 1 , ruthenabenzene [Ru{CHC(PPh₃)CHC(PPh₃)CH}Cl₂(PPh₃)₂]Cl, was used, the reaction produced ruthenacyclohexadiene [Ru{CH?C(PPh₃)CH?C(PPh₃)CH}Cl{(PPh₂)CH₂(PPh₂)}₂]Cl₂ ( 6 ), which could be viewed as a Jackson–Meisenheimer complex. Complex 6 is unstable in solution and can easily be convert to the cyclic ruthenium η²‐allene complexes [Ru{CH?C(PPh₃)CH?(η²‐C?CH)}Cl{(PPh₂)CH₂(PPh₂)}₂]Cl₂ ( 7 ) and [Ru{CH?C(PPh₃)CH?(η²‐C?CH)}Cl₂{(PPh₂)CH₂(PPh₂)}₂]Cl ( 8 ). The key intermediates of the reactions have been isolated and fully characterized, further supporting the proposed mechanism for the reactions. Similar reactions also occurred in phosphonium‐substituted metallapyridinium [OsCl₂{NHC(CH₃)C(Ph)C(PPh₃)CH}(PPh₃)₂]BF₄ to give the cyclic osmium η²‐allene‐imine complex [OsCl₂{NH?C(CH₃)C(Ph)?(η²‐C?CH)}{(PPh₂)CH₂(PPh₂)}(PPh₃)]BF₄ ( 11 ).     

Kinetics and mechanisms of homogeneous catalytic reactions. Part 5. Regioselective reduction of heteroaromatic nitrogen compounds catalysed by [OsH(CO)(NCMe)2(PPh3)2]BF4

The [OsH(CO)(NCMe)₂(PPh₃)₂]BF₄ complex (1) is an efficient and regioselective precatalyst for the hydrogenation of the nitrogen-containing ring of quinoline (Q), isoquinoline (iQ), 5,6- and 7,8-benzoquinoline (BQ), and acridine (A) under mild reaction conditions (125 °C and 4 atm H₂). Kinetic studies of the hydrogenation of Q and iQ to give tetrahydroquinoline (THQ) and tetrahydroisoquinoline (THiQ), respectively, lead to the rate law r = K ₁ k ₂/(1 + K ₁[H₂])[Os][H₂]², which becomes r = K ₁ k ₂[Os][H₂]², at low hydrogen concentrations (below 1 atm H₂); the catalytically active species is of the type [OsH(CO)(L)( ¹-N)(PPh₃)₂]BF₄ [(2a): L = NCMe, N = Q; (2b): L = N = iQ]. The generic mechanisms involve a rapid and partial hydrogenation of the coordinated substrate (N) of complex (2) to yield the corresponding dihydroderivative (DHN) species [OsH(CO)(L)( ¹-DHN)(PPh₃)₂]BF₄ [(3a): L = NCMe, DHN = DHQ; (3b): L = iQ or THiQ, DHN = DHiQ], followed by the rate-determining second hydrogenation of the DHN ligand, which yield [OsH(CO)(L)( ¹-THN)(PPh₃)₂]BF₄ [(4a): L = NCMe, THN = THQ; (4b): L = iQ or THiQ, THN = THiQ]; substitution of the THN ligand by a new molecule of the respective substrate regenerates the active species and restarts the catalytic cycle. For the hydrogenation of acridine to give 9,10-dihidroacridine (acridane), the rate law was r = k ₁[Os][H₂]; the mechanism involves the hydrogenation of the active species [OsH(CO)(NCMe)( ¹-A)(PPh₃)₂]BF₄ (2c) to yield acridane and the unsaturated species [OsH(CO)(NCMe)(PPh₃)₂]BF₄ as the rate-determining step.

(PPh4)2[MoN(N3)3Cl]2; Synthese,IR-Spektrum und Kristallstruktur

(PPh₄)₂[MoN(N₃)₃Cl]₂; Synthesis, IR Spectrum, and Crystal Structure The title compound is formed in the reaction of molybdenum (II) benzoate with trimethylsilyl azide and PPh₄Cl in dichloro methane forming dark red single crystals. A PPh₃Me⊕ salt of the ion [MoN(N₃)₃Cl]₂^2? is obtained from (PPh₃Me)₂MoNCl₄] treated with silver azide in CH₂Cl₂ suspension. The solvent CH₂Cl₂ participates in both reactions as oxidizing agent. (PPh₄)₂[MoN(N₃)₃Cl₂ is characterized by a structural analysis based upon X-ray data: space group P1 , Z = 1, a = 1050.7 pm; b = 1185.4 pm; c = 1190.8 pm; α = 98.90°; β = 106.87°; γ = 103.97° (4505 independent, observed reflexions, R = 0.039). The compound consists of PPh₄⊕ cations and centrosymmetric anions [MoN(N₃)₃Cl₂^2? in which the molybdenum atoms are bridged by the N_α atoms of two azide groups; the resulting Mo? N bond lengths are 208 pm and 260 pm. In trans position to the long Mo? N bond the terminal nitrido ligand is situated, the Mo?N distance of 164 pm corresponds to a triple bond. Two terminal azido ligands and the chloro ligand are filling up the coordination sphere of the molybdenum atoms to a coordination number of six. The i.r. spectrum is reported and assigned.
