lp;&-5q;1 The reactions of [Tl2[S2C=C[C(O)Me]2]]n with [MCl2L2] (1:1) or with [MCl2(NCPh)2] and PPh3 (1:1:2) give complexes [M[eta2-S2C=C[C(O)Me]2]L2] [M = Pt, L2 = 1,5-cyclooctadiene (cod) (1); L2 = bpy, M = Pd (2a), Pt (2b), L = PPh3, M = Pd (3a), Pt (3b)] whereas with MCl2 and QCl (2:1:2) anionic derivatives Q2[M[eta2-S2C=C[C(O)Me]2]2] [M = Pd, Q = NMe4 (4a), Ph3P=N=PPh3 (PPN) (4a'), M = Pt, Q = NMe4 (4b)] are produced. Complexes 1 and 3 react with AgClO4 (1:1) to give tetranuclear complexes [[ML2]2Ag2[mu2,eta2-(S,S')-[S2C=C[C(O)Me]2]2]](ClO4)2 [L = PPh3, M = Pd (5a), Pt (5b), L2 = cod, M = Pt (5b')], while the reactions of 3 with AgClO4 and PPh3 (1:1:2) give dinuclear [[M(PPh3)2][Ag(PPh3)2][mu2,eta2-(S,S')-S2C=C[C(O)Me]2]]]ClO4 [M = Pd (6a), Pt (6b)]. The crystal structures of 3a, 3b, 4a, and two crystal forms of 5b have been determined. The two crystal forms of 5b display two [Pt(PPh3)2][mu2,eta2-(S,S')-[S2C=C[C(O)Me]2]2] moieties bridging two Ag(I) centers.     

Synthesis,Crystal Structure,and Optical Properties of (CH3NH3)2CoX4 (X = Cl,Br, I,Cl0.5Br0.5, Cl0.5I0.5, Br0.5I0.5)

The reaction of methylammonium halides and cobalt halides yielded the organic‐inorganic hybrid compounds of general formula (CH₃NH₃)₂CoX₄. By varying the different halides, we were able to synthesize the whole row from Cl to I as well as some mixed halides compounds and to determinate the crystal structures. (CH₃NH₃)₂CoX₄ (X = Cl, Br, Cl_0.5Br_0.5, Br_0.5I_0.5) crystallize isotypic to (CH₃NH₃)₂HgCl₄ in space group P2₁/c with Z = 4 [X = Cl: a = 7.6483(9), b = 12.6885(18), c = 10.8752(12) Å, β = 96.639(9)°; X = Cl_0.5Br_0.5: a = 7.8271(9), b = 12.9543(9), c = 11.1007(11) Å, β = 96.320(8)°; X = Br: a = 7.9782(2), b = 13.1673(2), c = 11.2602(2) Å, β = 96.3260(10)° and X = Br_0.5I_0.5: a = 8.2435(12), b = 13.645(2), c = 11.5856(18) Å, β = 95.54(2)°]. The mixed halides show a statistic distribution in both cases. In (CH₃NH₃)₂CoCl₂I₂ an ordered variant is realized representing a new structure type [C2/m, Z = 4, a = 18.808(4), b = 7.3604(7), c = 10.4109(17) Å, β = 120.364(13)°]. (CH₃NH₃)₂CoI₄ crystallizes again isotypic to the respective mercury compound [(CH₃NH₃)₂HgCl₄] [Pbca, Z = 8, a = 10.9265(5), b = 12.1552(5), c = 20.9588(9) Å]. All structures are build up by inorganic tetrahedral [CoX₄]^2– anions and organic (CH₃NH₄)⁺ cations. Additionally the Raman spectra as well as the optical reflectance spectra are discussed.

Reaction of dimethylplatinum(II) complexes with PhCH2CH2Br: Comparative reactivity with CH3CH2Br and PhCH2Br and synthesis of Pt(IV) complexes

Oxidative addition of 2‐phenylethylbromide (PhCH₂CH₂Br) to dimethylplatinum(II) complexes [PtMe₂(NN)] ( 1a , NN = 2,2′‐bipyridine (bpy); 1b , NN = 1,10‐phenanthroline (phen)) afforded the new organoplatinum(IV) complexes [PtMe₂(Br)(PhCH₂CH₂)(bpy)], as a mixture of trans ( 2a ) and cis ( 3a ) isomers, and [PtMe₂(Br)(PhCH₂CH₂)(phen)], as a mixture of trans ( 2b ) and cis ( 3b ) isomers, respectively. The new Pt(IV) complexes were readily characterized using multinuclear (¹H and ¹³C) NMR spectroscopy and elemental microanalysis. The crystal structure of 2a was further determined using X‐ray crystallography indicating an octahedral geometry around the platinum centre. A comparison of reactivity of RCH₂Br reagents (R = CH₃, Ph or PhCH₂) in their oxidative addition reactions with complex 1a , with an emphasis on the effects of the R groups of alkyl halides, was also conducted using density functional theory.

The i.r. spectra (4000-80 cm⁻¹) of the newly-reported complexes cis- and trans-[Pt(pz)₂X₂] (pz = pyrazine; X = Cl, Br, I, NO₂) are discussed. Assignments for internal ligand modes are based on the effects of ligand deuteration. Assignments of metal—ligand modes are based on the effects of halide substitution and pyrazine labelling.     

Phosphine and solvent effects on oxidative addition of CH3Br to Pd(PR3) and Pd(PR3)2 complexes

The reaction between bromomethane CH(3)Br and Pd(0) phosphine complexes Pd(PR(3)) and Pd(PR(3))(2) resulting in the corresponding Pd(II) species Pd(PR(3))(CH(3))Br and Pd(PR(3))(2)(CH(3))Br was studied computationally with DFT methods. The oxidative addition can take place through two different mechanisms: concerted or S(N)2 transition state. The effect of a number of variables on the height of the barrier associated to each of these two mechanisms is systematically analyzed. The variables considered include the number of ligands on the metal (mono- or bis-phosphine), the nature of the phosphine (PF(3), PH(3), PMe(3) or PPh(3)), and the nature of the solvent (gas phase, tetrahydrofuran or dimethylformamide). A number of trends can be identified, resulting in a complex picture where the nature of the phosphine and the solvent can be tuned to favor one of the two possible mechanisms, with the corresponding stereochemical implications that can be extrapolated to the behaviour of more sophisticated substrates.

1-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-5-mercapto-1H-tetrazole as ligand in Cu(I) complexes with or without X-ions (X = Cl,Br, I): synthesis,crystal structures and properties

Four Cu(I) complexes with 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-mercapto-1H-tetrazole (Hhmt) as a ligand, [Cu(hmt)]_n (1), [Cu₂Cl(hmt)]_n (2), [Cu₄Br(hmt)₃]_n (3), and [Cu₄I(hmt)₃]_n (4), have been synthesized. In 1–4, hmt adopts a μ₄-η^1?:^? η^1?:^? ηS² coordinate mode to join the adjacent Cu(I) ions, which form different two-dimensional (2-D) structures. In 1, the neighboring four Cu(I) atoms are connected by μ₄-hmt to form a 2-D structure. In 2, the Cu(I) ions are firstly connected with Cl ions to form a 1-D [Cu₄Cl₂] subunit chain, which then have been bridged by hmt to form a 2-D structure. However, the inorganic [Cu₄Br] and [Cu₄I] motifs are respectively connected by hmt to form 2-D structures in isostructural 3 and 4. In addition, the fluorescent properties and the thermal stability properties of 1–4 have been investigated.     

Schwingungsspektren und Normalkoordinatenanalyse von (CF3)2SbX-Verbindungen (X = H,Cl, Br,I)

The gas phase i.r. and liquid phase Raman spectra of (CF₃)₂SbX (X = H, Cl, Br, I) have been investigated. The spectra are assigned on the basis of C_s local symmetry and a normal coordinate analysis making use of a transferred force field.     

Haloacyl complexes of boron, [(CF3)3BC(O)Hal]- (Hal=F, Cl, Br, I)

The haloacyltris(trifluoromethyl)borate anions [(CF3)3BC(O)Hal]- (Hal=F, Cl, Br, I) have been synthesized by reacting (CF3)3BCO with either MHal (M=K, Cs; Hal=F) in SO2 or MHal (M=[nBu4N]+, [Et4N]+, [Ph4P]+; Hal=Cl, Br, I) in dichloromethane. Metathesis reactions of the fluoroacyl complex with Me3SiHal (Hal=Cl, Br, I) led to the formation of its higher homologues. The thermal stabilities of the haloacyltris(trifluoromethyl)borates decrease from the fluorine to the iodine derivative. The chemical reactivities decrease in the same order as demonstrated by a series of selected reactions. The new [(CF3)3BC(O)Hal]- (Hal=F, Cl, Br) salts are used as starting materials in the syntheses of novel compounds that contain the (CF3)3B-C fragment. All borate anions [(CF3)3BC(O)Hal]- (Hal=F, Cl, Br, I) have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy (11B, 13C, 17O, 19F) and vibrational spectroscopy. [PPh4][(CF3)3BC(O)Br] crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2/c (no. 13) and the bond parameters are compared with those of (CF3)3BCO and K[(CF3)3BC(O)F]. The interpretation of the spectroscopic and structural data are supported by DFT calculations [B3LYP/6-311+G(d)].

Conclusions From the NQR spectra of the halides HgHal₂ -D (Hal = Cl, Br, or I; D = SCH₃CH₂CH₂SCH₃, N(CH₃)₂ CH₂CH₂N(CH₃)₂, or OCH₃CH₂CH₂OCH₃) it follows that in their complexing ability the sulfur, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms can be arranged in the order: S > N > I. A structure with equivalent halogens is realized in the considered complexes.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 8, pp. 1895–1897, August, 1973.The authors consider it their duty to thank G.

Darstellung und Schwingungsspektren von trans-[Pt(acac)2X2] (X  Cl,Br, I,SCN, SeCN,N3)

Preparation and Vibrational Spectra of trans-[Pt(acac)₂X₂] (X ? Cl, Br, I, SCN, SeCN, N₃) By electrolytical oxidation of [Pt(acac)₂] in presence of chloride or bromide, dissolved in dichlormethane, trans-[Pt(acac)₂X₂], X ? Cl, Br, are formed. On treatment of trans-[Pt(acac)₂I₂] with silver pseudohalides trans-[Pt(acac)₂X₂], X ? SCN, SeCN, N₃, are obtained. Beside the nearly persistent bands of coordinated acetylacetonate in the Raman spectra the intensive and sharp symmetric, in the IR spectra the corresponding antisymmetric stretching vibration of the X? Pt? X axis is observed. The observance of the rule of mutual exclusion proves the complexes to belong to point group D_2h. From the resonance Raman spectrum of trans-[Pt(acac)₂I₂] for v_s (Pt? I), A_g, the harmonic frequency ω₁ = 142.45 cm^?1 and the inharmonicity constant x₁₁ = 0.48 cm^?1 is calculated. In the Raman spectrum of trans-[Pt(acac)₂Cl₂] v_s (Pt? Cl) is splitted by the isotops ³⁵Cl/³⁷Cl into the triplet 340, 335, 330 cm^?1 giving the force constant f_PtCl = 2.01 N/cm.     

Synthesis and characterization of rhenium-copper sulfide cluster complexes [(Ph3P)2N][Re3(CuX)(mu3-S)4Cl6(PMe2Ph)3] (X = Cl, Br, I)

The reaction of a trinuclear rhenium sulfide cluster compound Re3S7Cl7 with dimethylphenylphosphine and CuX2 (X = Cl or Br) or CuX (X = Cl, Br, or I) formed tetranuclear cluster complexes [(Ph3P)2N][Re3(CuX)(mu3-S)4Cl6(PMe2Ph)3] (X = Cl, Br, or I). Their solutions have the characteristic intense blue color with visible spectral bands near 600 nm. Single-crystal X-ray structures show that three mu-S atoms in the intermediate trinuclear rhenium complex coordinate to a copper atom, forming elongated tetrahedral structures in which Re-Cu bonding interaction is negligible (Re-Cu distances are 3.50 to approximately 3.54 A as compared with Re-Re distances ranging from 2.69 to 2.81 A).     

Synthesis and structures of five-coordinate bis-o-iminobenzosemiquinone complexes M(ISQ-R)2X (X = Cl, Br, I, or SCN; M = CoIII, FeIII, or MnIII)

New five-coordinate complexes Co(ISQ-Prⁱ)₂Cl, Co(ISQ-Me)₂Cl, Co(ISQ-Me)₂I, Co(ISQ-Me)₂(SCN), Mn(ISQ-Prⁱ)₂Cl, and Fe(ISQ-Me)₂Br (ISQ-Prⁱ and ISQ-Me are the 4,6-di-tert-butyl-N-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-and 4,6-di-tert-butyl-N-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-o-iminobenzosemiquinone radical anions, respectively) were synthesized. The complexes were characterized by UV-Vis and IR spectroscopy and magnetochemistry. The molecular structures of the Fe(ISQ-Me)₂Br and Mn(ISQ-Prⁱ)₂Cl complexes were established by X-ray diffraction. The singlet ground state (S = 0) of the cobalt complexes is caused by antiferromagnetic coupling between the unpaired electrons of the radical ligands (S = 1/2) through the fully occupied atomic orbitals of low-spin cobalt(III) (d⁶, S = 0). The effective magnetic moments of the complexes at 10 K are 0.18 μ_B for Co(ISQ-Prⁱ)₂Cl and 0.16 μ_B for Co(ISQ-Me)₂I. The ground state of the manganese complex is triplet (S = 1). Two unpaired electrons of the o-iminobenzosemiquinone ligands are strongly antiferromagnetically coupled with two of four unpaired electrons of high-spin manganese(III) (d⁴, S = 2).

Autocatalytic oxidative addition of PhBr to Pd(PtBu3)2 via Pd(PtBu3)2(H)(Br)

We report that oxidative addition of bromobenzene to Pd(PtBu3)2 occurs by an unusual autocatalytic mechanism. Studies on the effect of various additives showed that the degree of rate acceleration followed the trend: (PtBu3)Pd(Ph)(Br) approximately (HPtBu3)Br < [(PtBu3)Pd(mu-Br)]2 < (PtBu3)2Pd(H)(Br). Studies on the reactions of Pd(PtBu3)2 in the presence of (PtBu3)2Pd(H)(Br) showed that the concentration of (PtBu3)2Pd(H)(Br) decreased only after the Pd(0) complex had been consumed. These data indicated that the catalyst in this process is (PtBu3)2Pd(H)(Br). Thermal decomposition of the three-coordinate oxidative addition product (PtBu3)Pd(Ar)(Br) during the reaction of Pd(PtBu3)2 and bromoarenes ultimately leads to formation of (PtBu3)2Pd(H)(Br). Parallel reactions of bromobenzene with (PtBu3)2Pd(H)(Br) and Pd(PtBu3)2 showed that the bromoarenes reacted considerably faster with the Pd(II) species than with the Pd(0) species. We therefore propose a catalytic cycle for oxidative addition in which PBut3.HBr reacts with the Pd(0) species to form (PtBu3)2Pd(H)(Br), and (PtBu3)2Pd(H)(Br) reacts with the bromoarene, possibly though the anionic species [HPtBu3+][(PtBu3)Pd(Br)-], to form [Pd(PtBu3)(Ar)(Br)].     

Vibrational spectra of the trihalocyclopropenium ions [C3X3]+ (X = Cl,Br or I)

Vibrational spectra are reported and assigned for the planar D_3h symmetry cyclopropenium cations [C₃X₃]⁺ (X= Cl, Br or I) from investigations of the compounds C₃Cl₃AlCl₄, C₃Cl₃GaCl₄, C₃Cl₃FeCl₄, C₃Cl₃SbCl₆, C₃Br₃AlBr₄ and C₃l₄, using conventional infrared and Raman spectroscopy and Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy. The symmetric C—X stretching modes of [C₃X₃]⁺ occur at 458, 269 and 180 cm⁻¹ and the ring-breathing modes at 1790, 1732 and ca. 1650 cm⁻¹ in [C₃Cl₃]⁺, [C₃Br₃]⁺ and [C₃I₃]⁺, respectively. A normal coordinate calculation is performed for [C₃Cl₃]⁺.     

Topological characterization of HXO2 (X = Cl, Br, I) isomerization

The isomerization reactions of HOOX --> HOXO --> HXO2 (X = Cl, Br, I) have been studied by using the density functional theory. The breakage and formation of the chemical bonds of the titled reactions have been discussed by the topological analysis method of electronic density. The calculated results show that there is a transitional structure of a three-membered ring on each of the isomerization reaction paths. The "energy transition state (ETS)" and the "structure transition state (STS)" in all of the studied reactions have been found. In all these reactions, the position of the structure transition state and the scope of the structure transition region correlate well with the reaction energy. The STS appears after the ETS in the exothermic reaction but it appears before the ETS in the endothermic reaction. The less reaction energy there is, the wider scope of the structure transition region.     

Polynuclear and mixed-ligand mononuclear Cu(I) complexes with N-thiophosphorylated thioureas and 1,10-phenanthroline or PPh3

Deprotonation of the N-thiophosphorylated thioureas RC(S)NHP(S)(OiPr)(2) (R = Me(2)N, HL(I); iPrNH, HL(II); 2,6-Me(2)C(6)H(3)NH, HL(III), 2,4,6-Me(3)C(6)H(2)NH, HL(IV), aza-15-crown-5, HL(V)) and reaction with CuI or Cu(NO(3))(2) in aqueous EtOH leads to the polynuclear complexes [Cu(4)(L(I)-S,S')(4)], [Cu(8)(L(II)-S,S')(8)], and [Cu(3)(L(III-V)-S,S')(3)]. The structures of these compounds were investigated by IR, (1)H, (31)P{(1)H} NMR, UV-vis spectroscopy and elemental analyses. The crystal structures of [Cu(4)L(I)(4)], [Cu(8)L(II)(8)], [Cu(3)L(III,IV)(3)] were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Reaction of the deprotonated ligands (L(I-V))(-) with a mixture of CuI and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen) or PPh(3) leads to the mixed-ligand mononuclear complexes [Cu(phen)L(I-V)], [Cu(PPh(3))L(I-V)] or [Cu(PPh(3))(2)L(I-V)]. The same mixed-ligand complexes were obtained from the reaction of [Cu(4)L(I)(4)], [Cu(8)L(II)(8)], [Cu(3)L(III-V)(3)] with phen or PPh(3).     

Governing the oxidative addition of iodine to gold(I) complexes by ligand tuning

While several gold(I) complexes of the type (L)AuX (X = Cl, Br) are known to undergo oxidative addition of elemental chlorine and bromine (X2), respectively, to give the corresponding gold(III) complexes (L)AuX3, the addition of iodine to (iodo)gold(I) compounds is strongly ligand-dependent, suggesting a crucial threshold in the oxidation potentials. A systematic investigation of this particular oxidative addition of iodine using a large series of tertiary phosphines as ligands L has shown that both electronic and steric effects influence the course of the reaction. The reactions were followed by 31P NMR spectroscopy and the products crystallized from dichloromethane-pentane solutions. Complexes with small triakylphosphines (PMe3, PEt3) are readily oxidized, while those with more bulky ligands (PiPr3, PtBu3) are not. With L taken from the triarylphosphine series [PPh3, P(2-Tol)3, P(3-Tol3), P(4-Tol)3] no oxidation takes place at all, but mixed alkyl/aryl-phosphines [PMenPh(3-n)] induce oxidation for n = 3 and 2, but not for n = 1 and 0. However, in cases where no oxidation of the gold atoms is observed, the synthons may crystallize as adducts with molecular iodine of the polyiodide type instead, which have an iodine rich stoichiometry. This fact explains inconsistent reports in the literature. The metal atoms in (L)AuI coordination compounds with L representing a tri(heteroaryl)phosphine [P(2-C4H3E)3, E = O, S], a phosphite [P(OR)3] or a trialkenylphosphine [PVi3] are all not subject to oxidative addition of iodine. The dinuclear complex of the ditertiary phosphine Ph2PCH2PPh2, (dppm)(AuI)2, gives an iodine adduct (without oxidation of the metal atoms), but with 1,2-Ph2P(C6H4)PPh2(dppbe) an ionic complex [(dppbe)AuI2]+I3- with a chelated gold(III) centre is obtained. The gold(I) bromide complexes with tertiary phosphines are readily oxidized by bromine to give the corresponding gold(III) tribromide complexes, as demonstrated for (BzMePhP)AuBr and (Ph3P)AuBr. With (dppm)(AuBr)2 the primary product with mixed oxidation states was also isolated: (dppm)AuBr(AuBr3). The crystal structures of the following representative examples and reference compounds have been determined: (Me3P)AuI3, (Me2PhP)AuI3, (iPr3P)AuI.1.5I2, (Ph3P)AuI.I2, [[(2-Tol)3P]AuI]2.I2, [(2-Tol)3P]AuI, (dppm)(AuX)2 (with X = Br, I), (dppm)AuBr(AuBr3) and [(dppbe)AuI2]+I3-. The structures are discussed focusing on the steric effects. It appears that e.g. the reluctance of (Ph3P)AuI to add I2 is an electronic effect, while that of (iPr3P)AuI has its origin in the steric influence of the ligand.
