Pentafluorophenyliodine(III) Compounds. 2. Fluorine-Aryl Substitution Reactions on Iodinetrifluoride: Synthesis of Pentafluorophenyliodinedifluoride C₆F₅IF₂ and Bis(pentafluorophenyl)iodonium Pentafluorophenylfluoroborates[(C₆F₅)₂I]⁺[(C₆F₅)_nBF_4?n]^? Mono- and disubstitution can be achieved in the fluorine-aryl substitution reaction on the low-temperature phase IF₃ in CH₂Cl₂ at ?78°C depending on the aryl transfer reagent. With B(C₆F₅)₃ [(C₆F₅)₂I]⁺ [(C₆F₅)_nBF_4?n]^? (68% yield) and with Cd(C₆F₅)₂ C₆F₅IF₂ (97% yield) is obtained whereas with C₆F₅SiMe₃ no fluorine-aryl substitution takes place on IF₃ even under basic conditions (EtCN or F^? addition). At ?78°C in EtCN solution IF₃ does not disproportionate but attacks the solvent under formation of HF.     

[(C6F5)2IF2][BF4], the First Salt with the Electrophilic Cation [(C6F5)2IF2]+: Synthesis,Reactivity, and Structure

The substitution of hypervalently bonded fluorine atoms in C₆F₅IF₄ was performed with C₆F₅BF₂ and resulted in the new salt [(C₆F₅)₂IF₂][BF₄]. The iodonium(V) salt was characterized by multi‐NMR and Raman spectroscopy and X‐ray crystal structure analysis. The fluorinating ability of the new electrophilic cation [(C₆F₅)₂IF₂]⁺ was exemplified in reactions with monovalent iodine compounds (C₆F₅I, p‐FC₆H₄I, and I₂) and with electron‐poor tri(organyl)pnictanes ER₃ (E = P, As, Sb, Bi; R = C₆F₅). In a heterogeneous reaction with CsF in MeCN the [(C₆F₅)₂IF₂]⁺ cation forms the dinuclear [{(C₆F₅)₂IF₂}₂F]⁺ cation.     

Pentafluorphenylioddifluorid: alternative Darstellungsmethoden,Molekülstruktur und Eigenschaften

Pentafluorophenyliodine(III) Compounds. 3 Pentafluorophenyliodinedifluoride: Alternative Preparations, Molecular Structure, and Properties The formation of C₆F₅IF₂ ( 1 ) by oxidative fluorination of C₆F₅I ( 2 ) using ClF, CF₃OCl, BrF₅, C₆F₅BrF₂, and C₆F₅BrF₄ is described. Highest purity and yield of 1 was achieved by a modified low temperature fluorination with F₂. Thermolysis of 1 delivered perfluoroiodocyclohexadiene‐1,4 and perfluoroiodocyclohexene besides 2 . X‐ray structural analysis of 1 exhibits the fluoride donor and acceptor ability. 1 is spectroscopically characterized by NMR (¹⁹F, ¹³C), IR and Ra. The influence of the change in the oxidation number of iodine in 2 , 1 and C₆F₅IF₄ ( 3 ) on spectroscopic and structural results will be discussed. Minimum energy geometries and charge distributions are calculated (RHF, LANL2DZ) for 1 , 2 and related compounds.     

A widely varying range of products in reactions of C6F5BrF2, C6F5IF2, and C6F5IF4 with Lewis acids of different strength

The relative fluoride donor ability: C₆F₅BrF₂ > C₆F₅IF₂ > C₆F₅IF₄ was outlined from reactions with Lewis acids of graduated strength in different solvents. Fluoride abstraction from C₆F₅HalF₂ with BF₃·NCCH₃ in acetonitrile (donor solvent) led to [C₆F₅HalF·(NCCH₃)_n][BF₄]. The attempted generation of [C₆F₅BrF]⁺ from C₆F₅BrF₂ and anhydrous HF or BF₃ in weakly coordinating SO₂ClF gave C₆F₅Br besides bromoperfluorocycloalkenes C₆BrF₇ and 1-BrC₆F₉. In reactions of C₆F₅IF₂ with SbF₅ in SO₂ClF the primary observed intermediate (¹⁹F NMR, below 0 °C) was the 4-iodo-1,1,2,3,5,6-hexafluorobenzenium cation, which converted into C₆F₅I and 1-IC₆F₉ at 20 °C. The reaction of C₆F₅IF₄ with SbF₅ in SO₂ClF below −20 °C gave the cation [C₆F₅IF₃]⁺ which decomposed at 20 °C to C₆F₅I, 1-iodoperfluorocyclohexene, and iodoperfluorocyclohexane. Principally, the related perfluoroalkyl compound C₆F₁₃IF₄ showed a different type of products in the fast reaction with AsF₅ in CCl₃F (−60 °C) which resulted in C₆F₁₄. Intermediate and final products of C₆F₅HalF_n−1 (n = 3, 5) with Lewis acids were characterized by NMR in solution. Stable solid products were isolated and analytically characterized.     

Silver(I) Compounds with Perfluorinated Aromatic Thiols C6F5C6F4SH,C10F7SH,and C6F5SH as Precursors for Silver Nanoparticles

Silver(I) compounds with perfluorinated aromatic thiols (4-nonafluorodiphenylthiol C₆F₅C₆F₄SH (HL¹), 2-heptafluoronaphthalenethiol C₁₀F₇SH (HL²), and pentafluorothiophenol C₆F₅SH (HL³), namely AgL¹ (I), AgL² (II), AgL³ (III), were prepared. The thermal properties of compounds I–III and the composition of thermolysis products were studied. By powder X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy, it was shown that thermolysis of compounds I–III under argon and thermolysis of compound III in air yield Ag nanoparticles.     

Reactions of Pentafluorobenzenesulfanylamines (C6F5S)nNH3–n,n = 1, 2, 3 and the Structure of (C6F5S)3N

The crystal structure of (C₆F₅S)₃N has been examined. The compounds (C₆F₅S)₂NX, X = SiMe₃ and ½ Hg have been prepared from (C₆F₅S)₂NH and characterised. In a number of other reactions, such as oxidation and irradiation, the S? N bond in (C₆F₅S)₂NH was readily fractured, forming the disulfide, (C₆F₅S)₂. The compound (C₆F₅S)₃N has been found to be unreactive. Details of the mass and ¹³C NMR spectra of (C₆F₅S)_nNH_3–n, n = 1, 2, 3 are reported.     

Explored routes to unknown polyfluoroorganyliodine hexafluorides, RFIF6

Two routes to R_FIF₆ compounds were investigated: (a) the substitution of F by R_F in IF₇ and (b) the fluorine addition to iodine in R_FIF₄ precursors. For route (a) the reagents C₆F₅SiMe₃, C₆F₅SiF₃, [NMe₄][C₆F₅SiF₄], C₆F₅BF₂, and 1,4-C₆F₄(BF₂)₂ were tested. C₆F₅IF₄ and CF₃CH₂IF₄ were used in route (b) and treated with the fluoro-oxidizers IF₇, [O₂][SbF₆]/KF, and K₂[NiF₆]/KF. The observed sidestep reactions in case of routes (a) and (b) are discussed. Interaction of C₆F₅SiX₃ (X = Me, F), C₆F₅BF₂, 1,4-C₆F₄(BF₂)₂ with IF₇ gave exclusively the corresponding ring fluorination products, perfluorinated cyclohexadiene and cyclohexene derivatives, whereas [NMe₄][C₆F₅SiF₄] and IF₇ formed mixtures of C₆F_nIF₄ and C₆F_nH compounds (n = 7 and 9). CF₃CH₂IF₄ was not reactive towards the fluoro-oxidizer IF₇, whereas C₆F₅IF₄ formed C₆F_nIF₄ compounds (n = 7 and 9). C₆F₅IF₄ and CF₃CH₂IF₄ were inert towards [O₂][SbF₆] in anhydrous HF. CF₃CH₂IF₄ underwent C-H fluorination and C-I bond cleavage when treated with K₂[NiF₆]/KF in HF. The fluorine addition property of IF₇ was independently demonstrated in case of perfluorohexenes. C₄F₉CFCF₂ and IF₇ underwent oxidative fluorine addition at −30 °C, and the isomers (CF₃)₂CFCFCFCF₃ (cis and trans) formed very slowly perfluoroisohexanes even at 25 °C. The compatibility of IF₇ and selected organic solvents was investigated. The polyfluoroalkanes CF₃CH₂CHF₂ (PFP), CF₃CH₂CF₂CH₃ (PFB), and C₄F₉Br are inert towards iodine heptafluoride at 25 °C while CF₃CH₂Br was slowly converted to CF₃CH₂F. Especially PFP and PFB are new suitable organic solvents for IF₇.

Determination of D[C6F5-I] by the toluene carrier method

The pyrolysis of C₆F₅I has been studied by the toluene carrier method over the temperature range of 900–978°K with contact times of 0.4–2.0 seconds and total pressures of 11.2–19.5 torr. Percent decomposition ranged from 8.6 to 97.7%. With toluene-to-C₆F₅I molar ratios of greater than 150, 85–100% of the C₆F₅ released abstracts a hydrogen atom from toluene to produce C₆F₅H. No significant quantities of I₂ were observed and the only major gaseous product was HI. Within the limits of the experimental method the decomposition of C₆F₅I was first order and homogeneous. Least squares analysis of log k₁ and 10³/T(C₆F₅I → C₆F₅ + I) values gives while a weighted line of best fit yields. Based on this latter equation D[C₆F₅? I] at 298°K is estimated as 66.2 kcal/mole.

Magnitude and origin of the attraction and directionality of the halogen bonds of the complexes of C6F5X and C6H5X (X = I, Br, Cl and F) with pyridine

The geometries and interaction energies of complexes of pyridine with C₆F₅X, C₆H₅X (X=I, Br, Cl, F and H) and R_FI (R_F=CF₃, C₂F₅ and C₃F₇) have been studied by ab initio molecular orbital calculations. The CCSD(T) interaction energies (E_int) for the C₆F₅X–pyridine (X=I, Br, Cl, F and H) complexes at the basis set limit were estimated to be ?5.59, ?4.06, ?2.78, ?0.19 and ?4.37 kcal mol^?1, respectively, whereas the E_int values for the C₆H₅X–pyridine (X=I, Br, Cl and H) complexes were estimated to be ?3.27, ?2.17, ?1.23 and ?1.78 kcal mol^?1, respectively. Electrostatic interactions are the cause of the halogen dependence of the interaction energies and the enhancement of the attraction by the fluorine atoms in C₆F₅X. The values of E_int estimated for the R_FI–pyridine (R_F=CF₃, C₂F₅ and C₃F₇) complexes (?5.14, ?5.38 and ?5.44 kcal mol^?1, respectively) are close to that for the C₆F₅I–pyridine complex. Electrostatic interactions are the major source of the attraction in the strong halogen bond although induction and dispersion interactions also contribute to the attraction. Short‐range (charge‐transfer) interactions do not contribute significantly to the attraction. The magnitude of the directionality of the halogen bond correlates with the magnitude of the attraction. Electrostatic interactions are mainly responsible for the directionality of the halogen bond. The directionality of halogen bonds involving iodine and bromine is high, whereas that of chlorine is low and that of fluorine is negligible. The directionality of the halogen bonds in the C₆F₅I– and C₂F₅I–pyridine complexes is higher than that in the hydrogen bonds in the water dimer and water–formaldehyde complex. The calculations suggest that the C? I and C? Br halogen bonds play an important role in controlling the structures of molecular assemblies, that the C? Cl bonds play a less important role and that C? F bonds have a negligible impact.     

A first methodical approach to salts with unsymmetrical fluorophenyl(pentafluorophenyl)difluoroiodonium(V) cations [Rf(RF)IF2] (Rf=x-FC6H4, x=2, 3, 4; RF=C6F5)

A promising approach to the unknown type of [Ar′(Ar)IF₂]X salts is offered. x-FC₆H₄IF₄ (x=2, 3, 4) reacts with C₆F₅BF₂ in CH₂Cl₂ and forms [x-FC₆H₄(C₆F₅)IF₂][BF₄] salts in good yields. For [4-FC₆H₄(C₆F₅)IF₂][BF₄] the fluoro-oxidizer property is shown in reactions with weakly reducing agents like E(C₆F₅)₃ (E=P, As, Sb, Bi) and ArI (Ar=4-FC₆H₄, C₆F₅). The fluorine/aryl substitution method is also applied to the synthesis of [(4-FC₆H₄)₂IF₂][BF₄], an example with two identical aryl groups in the difluoroiodonium(V) moiety.     

Pentafluorophenylcompounds of polyvalent iodine

The oxidation of C₆F₅I by oxidizers containing positive chlorine was investigated with the intention to prepare pentafluorophenyliodine (III) compounds: C₆F₅IX₂, where X are halides or oxoderivatives. Using ClF, ClOCF₃, Cl₂/AlCl₃ or Cl₂O as oxidizers C₆F₅ IF₂, C₆F₅ I Cl₂ and C₆F₅I (OCl)₂ - all thermally unstable - could be prepared and characterized.In contrast to these compounds the perfluoroaromatic carboxylates: C₆F₅I [O(O)C R_F]₂ are crystalline solids thermally stable up to 200 °C. Single crystal investigations show T-coordinated iodine with significant secondary bonding between iodine and the keto oxygens. C₆F₅ IO-formed by hydrolysis of C₆F₅IX₂ - changes if stored at RT forming (C₆F₅)₂I IO₃.(C₆F₅)₂I⁺ - formation is also observed when C₆F₅ IO is heated in inert (C₆F₅I, C₆H₆, CCl₄ …), protic (H₂O, CH₃OH, …) and strong acidic (FSO₃H …) dilution medium.C₆F₅IO reacts with acids, acid anhydrides and acid halides as could be shown by the preparation of C₆F₅ ICl₂ and C₆F₅ ICl (NO₃).Starting with C₆F₅ IX₂ different preparative ways for (C₆F₅)₂ I⁺ - compounds were successful. Principly (C₆F₅)₂ IX - compounds decompose thermally forming C₆F₅I + C₆F₅X.C₆F₅ IX₄ - compounds can be obtained from C₆F₅ IF₄ which is the specific displacement product of IF₅ with Si (C₆F₅)₄. By nucleophilic displacement it is possible to prepare C₆F₅ IF₂O, C₆F₅ IO₂, C₆F₅ IO (OAc_F)₂ and C₆F₅ I [OC(CH₃)₂  C(CH₃)₂O]₂,wich are all white, thermally stable solids.For the fluorine-ligand-exchange we used silycompounds as reagents. If the ligand is oxidable by C₆F₅ I(V) a stepwise reduction via C₆F₅I(III) to C₆F₅I could be shown by NMR-measurements.     

Synthesis and Characterization of Monomeric Aryloxo Palladium Complexes of the Type [Pd(N–N)(OAr)(C6F5)]. Crystal Structure of [Pd(tmeda)(C6F5)(OC6H4NO2‐p)]

Mononuclear palladium‐hydroxo complexes of the type [Pd(N–N)(C₆F₅)(OH)][(N–N) = 2,2′‐bipyridine (bipy), 4,4′‐dimethyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine (Me₂bipy), 1,10‐phenantroline (phen) or N,N,N′,N′‐tetramethylethylenediamine (tmeda) react with phenols ArOH in tetrahydrofuran giving the corresponding aryloxo complexes [Pd(N–N)(C₆F₅)(OAr)]. Elemental analyses and spectroscopic (IR, ¹H and ¹⁹F) methods have been used to characterize the new complexes. The X‐ray crystal structure of [Pd(tmeda)(C₆F₅)(OC₆H₄NO₂‐p)] has been determined. In the crystal packing the planes defined by two C₆H₄ rings show a parallel orientation. There are also intermolecular C–H···F and C‐H···O hydrogen bonds.     

C6F5XeCl and [(C6F5Xe)2Cl][AsF6]: The First Isolated and Unambiguously Characterized Xenon(II) Chlorine Compounds

Xenon(II ) chlorine compounds can be obtained as the isolable organo derivatives C₆F₅XeCl and [(C₆F₅Xe)₂Cl][AsF₆] (whose cation is depicted) in 85 and 91 % yield, respectively. These compounds decompose vigorously at 36°C and 100°C, respectively, leading to the formation of C₆F₅Cl and Xe gas and of C₆F₅Cl, C₆F₆, and [C₆F₅Xe][AsF₆], respectively.     

Syntheses and Properties of Tetrakis(pentafluorophenyl)tellurium,Te(C6F5)4, and Related Compounds — Single Crystal Structures of Tris(pentafluorophenyl)tellurium Bromide,Te(C6F5)3Br,Tris(pentafluorophenyl)tellurium Trifluoromethanesulfonate, [Te(C6F5)3][OSO2CF3], and Bis(pentafluorophenyl)tellurium Oxide,Te(C6F5)2O

Te(C₆F₅)₄ was prepared from the reactions of TeCl₄ or Te(C₆F₅)₂Cl₂ with Grignard reagents or AgC₆F₅ in moderate to good yields. Substitution reactions with Me₃SiX (X = Cl, Br, OSO₂CF₃), with equimolar amounts of Br₂, with AgNO₃ and with H[BF₄] or BF₃·OEt₂ yielded the Te(C₆F₅)₃X derivatives (X = Cl, Br, OSO₂CF₃, NO₃, BF₄). Oxidation reactions of Cd, Hg, and Pd⁰ complexes led to Te(C₆F₅)₂ and the corresponding bis(pentafluorophenyl) derivatives M(C₆F₅)₂ (M = Cd, Hg, Pd) and with InBr to In(C₆F₅)₂Br. From very slow hydrolysis of Te(C₆F₅)₄ the oxide Te(C₆F₅)₂O was prepared. The thermal decomposition, the NMR and mass spectra of the partially new compounds are discussed. The crystal structures of Te(C₆F₅)₃Br (monoclinic, P2₁/a, Z = 4), [Te(C₆F₅)₃][OSO₂CF₃] (monoclinic, P2₁/n, Z = 16) and [Te(C₆F₅)₂O]₂ (triclinic, P1¯, Z = 2) were determined.     

Adducts of (C6F5)3B with Selected Nitrogen

The Lewis acid (C₆F₅)₃B was reacted with ICN, NH₂CN, C₃N₃X₃ (X = H, Cl, F). The resulting Lewis acid base adducts ( 1—5 ) were fully characterized by analytic and spectroscopic methods. Additionally, the structures of the adducts 1—4 were determined by single crystal X‐ray analyses. It has been qualitatively shown, that a high field shift of the ¹¹B as well as the ¹⁹F NMR resonances of the o‐F atoms of the C₆F₅‐substituents suggests a longer B—N distance.     

Substitution reactions of IF5

Using silyl protected organic hydroxo compounds substitution of fluorine in IF₅ is successful.Reacting IF₅ with Si(OCH₃)₄ in CH₃CN or SO₂ using different molar ratios it was shown that in the series IF_5?n(OCH₃)_n only the first member IF₄(OCH₃) (n=1) is stable enough to be isolated. The product in solution with n=2 bismutates to products with n=1 and n=3 if isolated as solids. The last one decomposes to the new oxo compound IF₂O(OCH₃) under elimination of CH₃OCH₃. With n=4,5 only redox reaction products could be isolated.IF₂O(OCH₃) can also be obtained by treating IF₄(OCH₃) with (CH₃)₆Si₂O. Similarly reaction of IF₅ with the disiloxane represents a new method to win IOF₃. Excess of the oxygen transfer reagent leads to formation of IO₂F and I₂O₅. An other oxo compound, IO(CH₃COO)₃, can be prepared by disolving IF₅, IOF₃ or IO₂F in acetic acid anhydride.Reactions of IF₅ with trimethylsilyl protected fluorinated benzoic acids R_fCOOSi(CH₃)₃ (R_f = C₆F₅, 4HC₆F₄) appeared to be independent of the educts molar ratios because the only products are IF(R_fCOO)₄.In order to stabilize iodine (V) derivates with bifunctional chelating oxo ligands we applicated bis(trimethylsilyl) pinacolate, and in smooth reactions we yielded IF₃[OC(CH₃)₂C(CH₃)₂O] and IF[OC(CH₃)₂  C(CH₃)₂O]₂, in which iodine is part of five membered heterocyclic rings. The ¹⁹F-nmr-spectra are consistent with the diolate occupying the axiale and equatorial positions.An extension of the silyl method is the new synthesis of C₆F₅IF₄ which could be obtained in the smooth reaction of IF₅ with stochiometric amounts of Si(C₆F₅)₄.
