6(5H)-phenanthridinones. III. halo-6(5H)phenanthridinones

Halogenation of 6(5H)-phenanthridinone or its 3,8-dihalo derivatives with N-bromo or N-chlorosuccinimide in dimethylformamide gives the corresponding 2-halophenanthridinones (I,V,XI-XIV). Further halogenation of 2-halo-6(5H)-phenanthridinone with the appropriate N-halosuccinimide, in the same medium, gives the corresponding 2,4-dihalo derivatives (II,VI). NXS/DMF is found to be a very convenient halogenating system in these preparations. 1,3,8-Trihalo-6(5H)-phenanthridinones (XIX,XX) are prepared from the 1-nitro derivatives which are obtained by a Schmidt rearrangement of 2,7-dihalo-4-nitro-9-oxofluorenes. Similarly, rearrangement and further reaction of 2-nitro-5-chloro-9-oxofluorene (XXI) leads to 3,10-dichloro-6(5H)-phenanthridinone (XXIV). UV absorptions as well as selected IR absorptions of these 6(5H)-phenanthridinones are described.     

Biferrocenium tetrabromoferrate, [(C5H5)Fe(C5H4)- (C5H4)Fe(C5H5)]FeBr4. The X-ray structural characterization of a mixed-valence compound

Biferrocenium tetrabromoferrate, [(C₅H₅)Fe(C₅H₄)-(C₅H₄)Fe(C₅H₅)]FeBr₄ (1) obtained as a by-product in the synthesis of biferrocenium trihalide salts, crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric orthorhombic space group, P2₁2₁2₁: (at 296 K) a 7.492(2), b 9.903 (2), c 31.604(9) Å, V 2345(1) ų, and Z = 4. The cation, similar to other structurally characterized biferrocenium salts, adopts a trans-configuration, but, in contrast, possesses no crystallographically imposed symmetry relating the two ferrocenyl environments. Different average Fe-ring distances at the two environments: Fe(1), 2.02(2) and Fe(2), 2.08(2) Å are typical of iron(II) and iron(III) states, respectively, indicating the presence of trapped oxidation states. Interionic contacts are both shorter and more numerous for the iron(III) ferrocenyl fragment than for the iron(II) fragment. Both ferrocenyl units have non-eclipsed ring configurations, with a staggering angle of 6.5(3)° at Fe(1) and 23.5(3)° at Fe(2). The FeBr₄⁻ counterion is tetrahedral and ordered.     

Microwave spectra and the metal-hydrogen bond lengths for the C5H5Mo(CO)3H and C5H5W(CO)3H complexes

The measurements of rotational spectra and metal-hydrogen bond lengths for molybdenum and tungsten hydride complexes were recently completed in our laboratory. The W-H and Mo-H bond lengths were obtained from high resolution rotational spectra of C5H5Mo(CO)3H, C5H5W(CO)3H, C5H5Mo(CO)3D, and C5H5W(CO)3D. Data for five molybdenum and four tungsten isotopomers were obtained for both the normal and deuterium-substituted species. The asymmetric-top rotational parameters A, B, C, DeltaJ, and deltaJ were determined from the least-squares fits and these results indicate that the structures of these complexes are nearly rigid. The hydrogen bond lengths were determined for both complexes using Kraitchman analyses. The molybdenum-hydrogen bond length for the C5H5Mo(CO)3H complex is rMo-H=1.80(1) A. The tungsten-hydrogen bond length for the C5H5W(CO)3H complex is rW-H=1.79(4) A. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the structures were performed to obtain the optimized theoretical structures for C5H5Mo(CO)3H and C5H5W(CO)3H. Results obtained from the DFT calculations are in good agreement with the experimental parameters, and the Mo-H value is in good agreement with previously reported Mo-H bond lengths for similar complexes.     

Photochemical reactions of (CO)2 (PPh3)MnC5H4Fe(CO)2C5H5 and (CO)2(PPh3)MnC5H4COFe(CO)2C5H5 with PPh3

Reactions of (η5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2(η1-C5H5) with phosphorus donor ligands

The course of the reaction of (η⁵-C₅H₅)Fe(CO)₂(η¹-C₅H₅) with phosphorus donor ligands depends strongly on the nature of the ligand; products derived from an Arbuzov-like rearrangement or from reduction have been found as well as the expected simple substitution product. The dynamic PMR behavior of (η⁵-C₅H₅)Fe(CO) (P(OPh)₃) (η¹-C₅H₅) has been examined.

Monohalogenated ferrocenes C5H5FeC5H4X (X = Cl,Br and I) and a second polymorph of C5H5FeC5H4I

The structures of the three title monosubstituted ferrocenes, namely 1‐chloroferrocene, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₅H₄Cl)], (I), 1‐bromoferrocene, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₅H₄Br)], (II), and 1‐iodoferrocene, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₅H₄I)], (III), were determined at 100 K. The chloro‐ and bromoferrocenes are isomorphous crystals. The new triclinic polymorph [space group P, Z = 4, T = 100 K, V = 943.8 (4) ų] of iodoferrocene, (III), and the previously reported monoclinic polymorph of (III) [Laus, Wurst & Schottenberger (2005). Z. Kristallogr. New Cryst. Struct. 220 , 229–230; space group Pc, Z = 4, T = 100 K, V = 924.9 ų] were obtained by crystallization from ethanolic solutions at 253 and 303 K, respectively. All four phases contain two independent molecules in the unit cell. The relative orientations of the cyclopentadienyl (Cp) rings are eclipsed and staggered in the independent molecules of (I) and (II), while (III) demonstrates only an eclipsed conformation. The triclinic and monoclinic polymorphs of (III) contain nonbonded intermolecular I...I contacts, causing different packing modes. In the triclinic form of (III), the molecules are arranged in zigzag tetramers, while in the monoclinic form the molecules are arranged in zigzag chains along the a axis. Crystallographic data for (III), along with the computed lattice energies of the two polymorphs, suggest that the monoclinic form is more stable.
