Perfluormethyl‐Element‐Liganden. XLIII [1] Neue Synthesewege zu Zweikernkomplexen des Typs MM′(CO)8ER2X (M/M′ = Mn/Mn,Mn/Re,Re/Re; E = P,As; R = CF3, Me; X = Hal)

Perfluoromethyl Element Ligands. XLIII [1] Novel Synthetic Routes to Binuclear Complexes of the Type MM′(CO)₈ER₂X (M/M′ = Mn/Mn, Mn/Re, Re/Re; E = P, As; R = CF₃, Me; X = Hal, ) Mn(CO)₅I reacts with compounds of the type (CF₃)₂EAsMe₂ (E = P, As) as with the symmetric E₂(CF₃)₄ ligands in the first step with cleavage of the E‐As bond to yield the pro ducts (CO)₅MnE(CF₃)₂ and Me₂AsI. Reaction of the mononuclear complexes with excess of Mn(CO)₅I leads in good yields to the known dinuclear compounds (CO)₄Mn[E(CF₃)₂, I]Mn(CO)₄ and CO. Me₂AsI, the second product of the EAs cleavage, attacks the starting compound Mn(CO)₅I giving cis‐Mn(CO)₄I(AsMe₂I) and CO. This result encouraged us to thoroughly investigate the preparation of cis‐M(CO)₄X(EMe₂Y) complexes with most of the possible combinations of M = Mn, Re; E = P, As and X, Y = Cl, Br, I. An alternative route to these compounds was opened by the cleavage of the dinuclear manganese or rhenium halides M₂(CO)₈X₂ with the halophosphanes or ‐arsanes Me₂EY. This route was found to be especially advantageous for the preparation of the rheniumcarbonyl precursors, since milder conditions than for the CO‐substitution in Re(CO)₅X compounds are sufficient for the halogen‐bridged dinuclear complexes. Cis‐M(CO)₄X(EMe₂Y) complexes were used as precursors for the synthesis of novel homo‐ and heterodinuclear complexes of the type (CO)₄M(EMe₂, X)M′(CO)₄ by reacting the EY function with transition metal carbonylates Kat[M′(CO)₅] (Kat = Na, Bu₄N, Ph₄As). Thus the preparation of a wide range of complexes was possible, which before had been successfully prepared by the direct reaction of Mn₂(CO)₁₀ with Me₂EX only in few cases, e. g. with Me₂AsI. Spectroscopic investigations, using the CO valence frequencies and the ¹H‐NMR data of the ligands EMe₂Y or of the Me₂E bridges, were applied to study the influence of the variables M, M′, E, X, Y and Kat on the reactivity of the mononuclear complexes and the bonding situation in both the mono‐ and the dinuclear systems. The new compounds were characterized by spectroscopic (IR, NMR, MS) and analytic methods (C, H).     

Perfluormethyl-element-liganden XIII [1]: ein neuer weg zu zweikernkomplexen des typs M2(CO)8E(CF3)2X (M = Mn,Re)

The reactions of M(CO)₅X ( M = Mn, Re; X = Cl, Br, I) with E₂(CF₃)₄ (E = P, As) between 50 and 90°C yield binuclear complexes of the type M₂(CO)₈E(CF₃)₂X with two different bridging ligands, the formation of which is influenced by M (Mn > Re), E (P > As) , and X(I > Br > Cl). The main by-product is the symmetrical system M₂(CO)₈[E(CF₃)₂]₂, which is however not formed by the partial replacement of X by E(CF₃)₂ since this reaction requires temperatures above 120°C. The observed products can be explained by a three-step reaction path starting with the cleavage of E₂(CF₃)₄ followed by the subtitution of a cis-CO group in the M(CO)₅X component by M(CO)₅E(CF₃)₂ and the ring closure.

Darstellung von C6H5M(CO)5 (M = Mn,Re) und ortho-metallierten Ketonen mit einem Mangan- bzw. Rhenium-Ringglied

Preparation of C₆H₅M(CO₅ (M = Mn, Re) and Ortho-Metallated Ketones with a Manganese or Rhenium Ring Member C₆H₅Mn(CO)₅ and C₆H₅Re(CO)₅ were obtained by a new preparation method by a photochemical reaction between M₂(CO)₁₀ (M = Mn, Re) and (C₆H₅)₂Hg. The reaction of C₆H₅Mn(CO)₅ with (CH₃)₂Hg at different reaction conditions yielded the o-metallated benzophenone or the acetophenone; such known o-metallated derivates were prepared as yet by a reaction between the ketones and CH₃Mn(CO)₅. The ortho-metallated ketones and or were reaction products between Mn₂(CO)₁₀ and R₂Hg (R?C₆H₅ or p-(CH₃)₂NC₆H₄). On the contrary Re₂(CO)₁₀ and (C₆H₅)₂Hg were capable to form the analogous ortho-metallated benzophenone derivatives only by an addition of benzophenone. A substitution reaction of a CO ligand by P(C₆H₅)₃, a fission of the five-membered heterocyclic ring and a phenylation was carried out for some of such o-metallated ketones. The products were characterized by infrared spectroscopic measurements.     

Neutrale Bis‐Aziridin‐Komplexe des Typs [M(CO)3XAz2] (M = Mn,Re; X = Cl,Br; Az = N(H)C2H2Me2)

The pentacarbonylhalogene complexes [XM(CO)₅] (M = Mn, Re; X = Cl, Br) ( 1a – 2b ) react with 2,2‐dimethylaziridine by thermally induced substitution reaction to give the neutral bis‐aziridine complexes [M(X)(CO)₃Az₂] (Az = N(H)C₂H₂Me₂) ( 3a – 4b ). As a result of the X‐ray structure analyses, the metal atoms are octahedrally configurated in the facial arrangement; the intact three‐membered rings coordinate through their distorted tetrahedrally configurated N atoms. All compounds 3a – 4b are stable with respect to the directed thermal alkene elimination to give the corresponding nitrene complexes (CO)₄(X)M=NH; their IR, ¹H and ¹³C{¹H} NMR, and MS spectra are reported and discussed.     

Substituted metal carbonyls XXIII . Syntheses of unicoordinated diphosphine complexes of Cr and Mo and their entry into heterobimetallics MM′(CO)10(μ-P-P) [M, M′= Cr, Mo, W; P---P = Ph2P(CH2)nPPh2, n = 2–4] as metalloligands

A series of pentacarbonyl complexes of chromium and molybdenum with unicoordinated-diphosphines, M(CO)₅(η¹-P-P) (P-P = dppe, dppp, dppb) has been prepared by amine oxide-induced phosphine substitution of the binary carbonyls. The basicity of the pendant phosphine groups was demonstrated by their ready conversion to the diphosphine-bridged heterobimetallic complexes (OC)₅M(μ-P-P)M′(CO)₅ (M, M′= Cr, Mo, W; M ≠ M′) in the presence of MCO)₅(CH₃CN). The complexes were characterized by IR and NMR (¹H and ³¹P-{¹H}) spectroscopy.

By using (C₂H₅)₂O·BF₃ the synthesis yields the compounds (CH₃)₃SiNCBF_x(CN)_3—x x = 0, 1. The products are characterized by vibrational and NMR‐spectroscopy, as well as by X‐ray diffraction of single‐crystals: Li[BF₂(CN)₂]·2Me₃SiCN Cmc2₁, a = 24.0851(5), b = 12.8829(3), c = 18.9139(5) Å V = 5868.7(2) ų, Z = 12, R₁ = 4.7%; K[BF₂(CN)₂] P4₁2₁2, a = 13.1596(3), c = 38.4183(8) Å, V = 6653.1(3) ų, Z = 48, R₁ = 2.5%; K[BF(CN)₃] P1¯, a = 6.519(1), b = 7.319(1), c = 7.633(2) Å, α = 68.02(3), β = 74.70(3), γ = 89.09(3)°, V = 324.3(1) ų, Z = 2, R₁ = 3.6%; Me₃SiNCBF(CN)₂ Pbca, a = 9.1838(6), b = 13.3094(8), c = 16.840(1) Å, V = 2058.4(2) ų, Z = 8, R₁ = 4.4%     

Double Salt Formation in MBr2?M′ Br2?H2O and MCl2?M′Cl2?H2O systems (M,M′  Mg,Ca, Mn,Zn, Cd)

The CaBr₂? MnBr₂? H₂O and CdBr₂? MnBr₂? H₂O systems at 25°C have been studied. Two new double salts, CaBr₂ · MnBr₂ · 8 H₂O and 4 CdBr₂ · MnBr₂ · 10 H₂O, have been found. It was shown that for all known systems of the type MX₂? M′X₂? H₂O (M, M′ ? Mg, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd; X ? Cl, Br), double salts are formed in all cases when both M²⁺ and M′²⁺ are p⁶, d⁵-HSS or d¹⁰ ions as well as in some cases when only one of the metal ions has these configurations. A comparison is made of the type and number of the double salts formed in a chloride and the corresponding bromide system.     

Synthesis and Characterization of New M‐Triazole Complexes (M = Co,Cu, Zn)

Three new complexes with the ligand 3,5‐diamino‐1,2,4‐triazole (Hdatrz), [Co₃(μ₂‐Hdatrz)₆(H₂O)₆]·(NO₃)₈·4H₂O ( 1 ), [Cu₃(μ₂‐Hdatrz)₄(μ₂‐Cl)₂(H₂O)₂Cl₂]·Cl₂·4H₂O·2C₂H₅OH ( 2 ) and {[Zn₂(μ₂‐SO₄) (μ₃‐datrz)₂]·2H₂O}_n ( 3 ) have been synthesized and structurally characterized. Complex 1 has a linear trinuclear mixed‐valence cobalt structure with six neutral triazole ligands in the N(1), N(2)‐bridging mode. The central cobalt atom, Co(1), is coordinated to six nitrogen atoms (octahedral) whereas the terminal cobalt atom, Co(2), is coordinated to an N₃O₃ moiety (octahedral). In complex 1 , the uudd cyclic water clusters, nitrate anions and the trimeric cations are linked to a supramolecular structure. Complex 2 features a linear trinuclear copper(II) core, with four N(1), N(2)‐bridging triazole ligands and two chlorido bridges. The central copper atom is coordinated to an N₄Cl₂ moiety (octahedral) whereas the terminal copper is coordinated to an N₂Cl₂O moiety (square‐pyramidal). In complex 2 , tetrahedral hydrogen bonding interactions play an important role to form a supramolecular network. Complex 3 exhibits a polymeric structure, with N(1), N(2), N(4)‐bridging triazolate ligands and sulfate bridges, in which zinc is coordinated to an N₃O moiety (tetrahedral). In complex 3 , water molecules and sulfate anions construct the sulfate‐water supramolecular chain with hydrogen bonding interactions. In addition, the complexes were investigated by elemental analyses, IR spectroscopic, and thermogravimetric measurements.     

Comparative study of NMR spectea of monosubstituted (C5H4X)M(CO)3 (M=Mn,Re)

Binuclear metal carbonyl dab complexes : II. The syntheses and coordination properties of Mn(CO)5M′(CO)3DAB (M′ = Mn,Re; DAB = 1,4-diazabutadiene)

Mn(CO)₅M′(CO)₃DAB complexes (M′ = Mn, Re; DAB = R₁N=C(R₂)-C(R′₂)=NR₁) can be easily obtained from the reaction between Mn(CO)₅^? and M′(CO)₃X(DAB) (M′ = Mn, Re; X = Cl, Br, I). The complexes are formed by a nucleophilic mechanism, while a redistribution is responsible for the formation of a small amount of Mn₂(CO)₁₀.A diastereotopic effect can be observed in the ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra of complexes having isopropyl groups attached to the DAB ligand skeleton. A comparison is made with mononuclear complexes of the same symmetry, and the chemical shift differences for the methyl groups strongly depend on the substituent on the central metal responsible for the asymmetry.The low temperature enhancement of the σ → σ^★ transition localised on the metal—metal bond, which is normally observed for this type of compounds, was not observed for the Mn(CO)₅M′(CO)₃(DAB) complexes. The metal—metal bond can be activated by irradiating at the wave lengths associated with the CT transitions between the metal and the DAB ligand. Metal—metal bond cleavage occurs and Mn₂(CO)₁₀ is formed.     

Magneto-structural studies on heterobimetallic malonate-bridged M(II)Re(IV) complexes (M = Mn, Co, Ni and Cu)

The mononuclear Re(IV) compound of formula (PPh(4))(2)[ReBr(4)(mal)] (1) was used as a ligand to obtain the heterobimetallic species [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Co(dmphen)(2)]· MeCN (2), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Ni(dmphen)(2)] (3), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Mn(dmphen)(2)] (4a), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Mn(dmphen)(H(2)O)(2)]·dmphen·MeCN·H(2)O (4b), [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Cu(phen)(2)]·1/4H(2)O (5) and [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)Cu(bipy)(2)] (6) (mal = malonate dianion, dmphen = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline and bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine). The structures of 2 and 5 (single-crystal X-ray diffraction) are made up of neutral [ReBr(4)(μ-mal)M(AA)] dinuclear units [AA = dmphen with M = Co (2) and AA = phen with M = Cu (5)] where the metal ions are connected through a malonate ligand which exhibits simultaneously the bidentate [at the Re(IV)] and monodentate [at the M(II)] coordination modes. The carboxylate-malonate group in them adopts the anti-syn conformation with intramolecular ReM separation of 5.098(8) (2) and 4.947(2) ? (5). The magnetic properties of 1-6 were investigated in the temperature range 1.9-295 K. The magnetic behaviour of 1 is the expected for a magnetically isolated Re(IV) complex with a large value of the zero-field splitting (2D ca. -70 cm(-1)) whereas weak antiferromagnetic interactions between Re(IV) and M(II) are observed in the heterobimetallic compounds 2 (J = -0.63 cm(-1)), 3 (J = -1.37 cm(-1)), 4a (J = -1.29 cm(-1)), 5 (J = -1.83 cm(-1)) and 6 (J = -0.26 cm(-1)). Remarkably, 4b behaves as a ferrimagnetic chain with regular alternating Re(IV) and Mn(II) cations (J = -2.64 cm(-1)).     

A density functional theory study on boundary of “superreduced” transition metal carbonyl anions [M(CO)n](M=Cr, n=5, 4, 3, z=2, 4, 6; M=Mn, n=5, 4, 3, z=1, 3, 5; M=Fe, n=4, 3, 2, z=2, 4, 6; M=Co, n=4, 3, 2, z=1, 3, 5)

A nonlocal density functional theory (DFT) method has been applied to the calculations on optimized geometry, Mulliken atomic net charges and interatomic Mulliken bond orders as well as total bonding energies (E) in the binary transition metal carbonyl anions with different reduced states [M(CO)_n]^z− (M=Cr, n=5, 4, 3, z=2, 4, 6; M=Mn, n=5, 4, 3, z=1, 3, 5; M=Fe, n=4, 3, 2, z=2, 4, 6; M=Co, n=4, 3, 2, z=1, 3, 5). For comparison of relative stability, a relative stabilization energy D is defined as D=E([M(CO)_n]^z−)−nE(CO). The calculated C–O distances are lengthened monotonously with the increase of the anionic charge, but the M–C distances are significantly lengthened only in the higher reduced states. The relative stabilization energy calculated is a considerable negative value in the lower reduced states, but a larger positive value in the higher reduced states. The DFT calculations show that with the increase of the anionic charge, the Mulliken net charges on the M, C, and O atoms all increase, however, an excess of the anionic charge is mainly located at the central metal atom. The calculated C–O Mulliken bond orders decrease consistently with the increase of the anionic charge, but the M–C bond orders exhibit an irregular behavior. However, the total bond orders calculated clearly explain the higher reduced states to be considerably unstable. From analysis of the calculated results, it is deduced that the stability of the binary transition metal carbonyl anions [M(CO)_n]^z− studied are associated with the coordination number n and the anionic charge z, further, it is possible for the anions studied to be stable if n≥z, conversely, it is impossible when n<z.     

Infrared study of νOD modes in isotopically dilute (HDO) kieserite-type compounds MXO4·H2O (M=Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, and X=S, Se) with matrix-isolated M′ and X′O4 guest ions

The hydrogen bond strength in kieserite-type sulfate and selenate monohydrates has been studied by the method of double-matrix spectroscopy. The infrared spectra of isotopically dilute (matrix-isolated HDO molecules) kieserite-type compounds MXO₄·H₂O (M=Mn, Co, Ni, Zn, and X=S, Se) with matrix-isolated X′O₄²⁻ and M′²⁺ guest ions are presented and discussed in the region of the OD stretching modes. The OD frequencies indicate that the compounds under investigation form comparatively strong hydrogen bonds. The frequency shifts of the uncoupled OD stretching modes of the HDO molecules within the isostructural series and those influenced by the guest ions, and the strength of the hydrogen bonds formed, are discussed in terms of the respective O_wO distances, which hint at stronger hydrogen bonds for the sulfate series than for the selenate one by mistake, the larger hydrogen bond acceptor capability of SeO₄²⁻ ions compared to SO₄²⁻ ones, the different metal–water interactions and repulsion potentials of the lattice, and the reorientation of the water molecules caused by the guest ions. The shifts of the OD stretches of the ODOSe′O₃ bonds (Se′O₄²⁻ matrix isolated) to the lower wavenumbers as compared to the parent selenates are caused by the reorientation of the hydrate water molecules and strengthening the hydrogen bond to the stronger acceptor and vice versa. When smaller metal ions having smaller M–OH₂ bond lengths and, hence, stronger synergetic effect replace larger ones, the OD stretches are shifted to lower wavenumbers as compared to those due to the host M–O_wO bonds and vice versa.     

Synthesis and characterization of (smif)2M(n) (n = 0, M = V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Ru; n = +1, M = Cr, Mn, Co, Rh, Ir; smif =1,3-di-(2-pyridyl)-2-azaallyl)

A series of Werner complexes featuring the tridentate ligand smif, that is, 1,3-di-(2-pyridyl)-2-azaallyl, have been prepared. Syntheses of (smif)(2)M (1-M; M = Cr, Fe) were accomplished via treatment of M(NSiMe(3))(2)(THF)(n) (M = Cr, n = 2; Fe, n = 1) with 2 equiv of (smif)H (1,3-di-(2-pyridyl)-2-azapropene); ortho-methylated ((o)Mesmif)(2)Fe (2-Fe) and ((o)Me(2)smif)(2)Fe (3-Fe) were similarly prepared. Metatheses of MX(2) variants with 2 equiv of Li(smif) or Na(smif) generated 1-M (M = Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Zn, Ru). Metathesis of VCl(3)(THF)(3) with 2 Li(smif) with a reducing equiv of Na/Hg present afforded 1-V, while 2 Na(smif) and IrCl(3)(THF)(3) in the presence of NaBPh(4) gave [(smif)(2)Ir]BPh(4) (1(+)-Ir). Electrochemical experiments led to the oxidation of 1-M (M = Cr, Mn, Co) by AgOTf to produce [(smif)(2)M]OTf (1(+)-M), and treatment of Rh(2)(O(2)CCF(3))(4) with 4 equiv Na(smif) and 2 AgOTf gave 1(+)-Rh. Characterizations by NMR, EPR, and UV-vis spectroscopies, SQUID magnetometry, X-ray crystallography, and DFT calculations are presented. Intraligand (IL) transitions derived from promotion of electrons from the unique CNC(nb) (nonbonding) orbitals of the smif backbone to ligand π*-type orbitals are intense (ε ≈ 10,000-60,000 M(-1)cm(-1)), dominate the UV-visible spectra, and give crystals a metallic-looking appearance. High energy K-edge spectroscopy was used to show that the smif in 1-Cr is redox noninnocent, and its electron configuration is best described as (smif(-))(smif(2-))Cr(III); an unusual S = 1 EPR spectrum (X-band) was obtained for 1-Cr.     

Spectroscopic studies of [M(CO)5M′(CO)3(1,4-diazabuta-1,3-diene)] (M,M' = Mn,Re) and their photolysis products

Photolysis of [M(CO)₅M′(CO)₃(dab)] (M, M′ = Mn, Re; dab = 1,4-diazabuta-1,3-diene, RNCHCHNR) in 2-Me-THF leads to both homolytic and heterolytic splitting of the metalmetal bond depending on the solution temperature. In a rigid medium such as a CH₄-matrix no breaking of the metalmetal bond is observed but instead formation of [M(CO)₃M′(CO)₃(dab)] in which compound the dab-ligand is σ,σ,π,π bridging between M and M′.
