Spectroscopic data clearly indicate a dihapto-coordination of the heteroallenes via the C=X bond (X = O, S, N).     

The use of thermotropic liquid crystals in organometallic chemistry. Synthesis of new mercury, silver and gold complexes with 4,4′-disubstituted azob

Liquid crystalline 4-XC₆H₄N=NC₆H₄X-4′ [X = C₄H₉ (1a), C_1OH₂₁ (1b), OC₄H₉ (1c), OC₈H₁₇(1d)] can be easily prepared in high yields from the corresponding anilines. In order to study the influence of metals on the thermal properties of these materials, we have obtained adducts [AuCl ₃(4-C₄H₉OC₆H₄N=NC₆H₄OC₄H₉-4′)] (2) and [Ag(OC1O₃)L₂] [L = 4-XC₆H₄N=NC₆H₄X-4′; X = OC₄H, (3a), OC₈H₁₇ (3b)]. The silver adducts show themotropic behaviour. Mercuriation of dialkylazobenzenes 1a-b takes place with [Hg(OAc)₂] and LiCl to give [Hg(R)Cl] [R = C₆H₃(N=NC₆H₄X-4′)-2, X-5; X = C₄H₉ (bpap) (4a), C₁₀H₂₁ (dpap) (4b)] while dialkoxyazobenzenes 1c–d require [Hg (OOCCF₃)₂] to obtain [Hg(R)Cl] [R = C₆H₃(N---NC₆H₄X-4′)-2, X-5; X = OC₄H₉ (bxpap) (4c), OC ₈H₁₇ (4d)]. 4a-c react with NaI to give [HgR₂] [R= bpap (5a), dpap (5b), bxpap (5c), oxpap (5d)l. Both chloroaryl-, 4a and 4c, and diaryl-mercurials, 5a and 5c, act readily as transmetailating agents towards [Me₄N] [AuCl₄] in the presence of [Me₄N]Cl to give [Au(η²-R)Cl₂] [R = bpap (6a), bxpap (6b)]. After reaction of [AuCl ₃(tht)] (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) with [Me₄N]Cl and 4b (1:2:1), [Me₄N][Au(dpap)Cl₃] (7) can be isolated. C---H activati bxpap (8b)]. None of the complexes 4–8 shows mesomorphic behaviour.

Six new cluster derivatives [Rh₂Co₂(CO)₆(μ-CO)₄(μ₄,η²-HCCR)] (R=FeCp₂ 1, CH₂OH 2, (CH₃O)C₁₀H₆CH(CH₃)COOCH₂CCH 3) and [RhCo₃(CO)₆(μ-CO)₄(μ₄,η²-HCCR)] (R=FeCp₂ 4, CH₂OH 5, (CH₃O)C₁₀H₆CH(CH₃)COOCH₂CCH 6) were obtained by the reactions of [Rh₂Co₂(CO)₁₂] and [RhCo₃(CO)₁₂] with substituted 1-alkyne ligands HCCR [R=FeCp₂ 7, CH₂OH 8, (CH₃O)C₁₀H₆CH(CH₃) COOCH₂CCH 9] in n-hexane at room temperature, respectively. Alkynes insert into the Co---Co bond of the tetranuclear clusters to give butterfly clusters. [Rh₂Co₂(CO)₆(μ-CO)₄(μ₄,η²-HCCFeCp₂)] (1) was characterized by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Reactions of 1, 2 with 7, 8 and ambient pressure of carbon monoxide at 25 °C gave two known cluster complexes [Co₂(CO)₆(μ₂, η²-HCCR)] (R=FeCp₂ 10, CH₂OH 11), respectively. All clusters were characterized by element analysis, IR and ¹H-NMR spectroscopy.     

The reactions of some protected and unprotected monosaccharides with M(NO){HB(3,5-Me2C3HN2)3}X2 (M = Mo, X = Cl, Br, I; M = W, X = Cl)

The reactions between [M(NO){HB(3,5-Me₂C₃HN₂)₃}X₂] (M = Mo, X = Cl, Br, I; M = W, X = Cl) and the monosaccharides 2,3:4,5-di-O-iso-propylidene-β- -fructopyranose, 2,3:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-- -mannofuranose, methyl-- -glucopyranoside and -(+)-mannofuranose have been investigated and the complexes [M(NO){HB(3,5- Me₂C₃HN₂)₃}X(OR)] (M = Mo, X = Cl, Br, I; M = W, X = Cl; ROH = 2,3:4,5-di-O- isopropylidene-β- -fructopyranose) have been isolated as mixtures of diastereoisomers.     

Preparation and characterization of ruthenium(II), rhodium(III) and iridium(III) complexes of isocyanide bearing the azo group

Reactions of [(η⁶-arene)RuCl₂]₂ (1) (η⁶-arene=p-cymene (1a), 1,3,5-Me₃C₆H₃ (1b), 1,2,3-Me₃C₆H₃ (1c) 1,2,3,4-Me₄C₆H₂(1d), 1,2,3,5-Me₄C₆H₂ (1e) and C₆Me₆ (1f)) or [Cp*MCl₂]₂ (M=Rh (2), Ir (3); Cp*=C₅Me₅) with 4-isocyanoazobenzene (RNC) and 4,4′-diisocyanoazobenzene (CN–R–NC) gave mononuclear and dinuclear complexes, [(η⁶-arene)Ru(CNC₆H₄N=NC₆H₅)Cl₂] (4a–f), [Cp*M(CNC₆H₄N=NC₆H₅)Cl₂] (5: M=Rh; 6: M=Ir)_, [{(η⁶-arene)RuCl₂}₂{μ-CNC₆H₄N=NC₆H₄NC}] (8a–f) and [(Cp*MCl₂)₂(μ-CNC₆H₄N=NC₆H₄NC)}] (9: M=Rh; 10: M=Ir)_, respectively. It was confirmed by X-ray analyses of 4a and 5 that these complexes have trans-forms for the ---N=N--- moieties. Reaction of [Cp*Rh(dppf)(MeCN)](PF₆)₂ (dppf=1,1′-bis (diphenylphosphino)ferrocene) with 4-isocyanoazobenzene gave [Cp*Rh(dppf)(CNC₆H₄N=NC₆H₅)](PF₆)₂ (7), confirmed by X-ray analysis. Complex 8b reacted with Ag(CF₃SO₃), giving a rectangular tetranuclear complex 11b, [{(η⁶-1,3,5-Me₃C₆H₃)Ru(μ-Cl}₄(μ-CNC₆H₄N=NC₆H₄NC)₂](CF₃SO₃)₄ bridged by four Cl atoms and two μ-diisocyanoazobenzene ligands. Photochemical reactions of the ruthenium complexes (4 and 8) led to the decomposition of the complexes, whereas those of 5, 7, 9 and 10 underwent a trans-to-cis isomerization. In the electrochemical reactions the reductive waves about −1.50 V for 4 and −1.44 V for 8 are due to the reduction of azo group, [---N=N---]→[---N=N---]²⁻. The irreversible oxidative waves at ca. 0.87 V for the 4 and at ca. 0.85 V for 8 came from the oxidation of Ru(II)→Ru(III).     

Crystal Structure, Nano-particle Morphology and Interaction with ATP of [ NH3 CH2 CH（ NH2 ） CH3 ]2 [ M（ Ⅵ ） O2 （ OC6 H4 O）2 ] （M = Mo0. 6 W0. 4 ） and Its Activity to Promote DNA Cleavage

The title complex [NH_3CH_2CH(NH_2)CH_3]_2 [M(Ⅵ)O_2(OC_6H_4O)_2](M= Mo_(0.6)W_(0.4))was synthesized via a simple solution-phase chemical route.The determination of single crystal X-ray diffraction revealed that the title compound is crystallized in a monoclinic system with P2(1)/n space group,a=1.0913(10)nm,b=1.0442(10)nm,c=1.8842(19)nm,α=90°,β=96.530(17)°,γ=90°,Z=4,and V=2.133(4)nm3.The mononuclear anionic unit [M(Ⅵ)O2(OC6H4O)2]2-displays chiral pseudo-octahedral [MO_6] coordination geometry and is linked by chiral cations via hydrogen bond and π…π stacking interaction.The transmission electron microscopy images show that the title complex is comprised of nano-particles with diameters ranging from 20 to 50 nm.The NMR study shows the 1H downfield chemical shifts of [NH_3CHaHbCH(NH_2)CH_3] cations in the title complex when it is mixed with adenosine-triphosphate(ATP),and the chemical shift difference between Ha and Hb is increased greatly,and most of the catecholate ligands dissociate from the central metal atoms.The DNA cleavage activity experiment reveals that DNA cleavage promoted by the title complex is lower than that by Na_2MoO_4 which possesses antitumor pro-perty,but higher than that by Na_2WO_4.     

Homochiral cyclopentane-based C1-symmetric P,P ligands C5H8(PPh2)(PR2) from C2-symmetric C5H8(PCl2)2

Treatment of 1,2-trans-C₅H₈(PCl₂)₂ with 1,2-C₂H₄(NHPr-i)₂ gave the C₂-symmetric perhydro-1,6,2,5-diazaphosphocine C₅H₈{P(Cl)N(Pr-i)CH₂}₂-cyclo, which produced dissymmetric C₅H₈(PPh₂){P[N(Pr-i)CH₂]₂-cyclo} on further reaction with PhMgBr. Cleavage of the P---N bonds with gaseous HCl afforded C₅H₈(PPh₂)(PCl₂), which was converted to C₅H₈(PPh₂){P(OPh)₂}₂ by reaction with phenol. All chiral P,P derivatives were obtained as racemates as well as resolved (1R,2R)- and (1S,2S)-enantiomers.     

Organometallic complexes for nonlinear optics: Part 31. Cubic hyperpolarizabilities of ferrocenyl-linked gold and ruthenium complexes

The complexes [Fe{η-C₅H₄---(E)---CH=CH---4-C₆H₄CCX}₂] [X=SiMe₃ (1), H (2), Au(PCy₃) (3), Au(PPh₃) (4), Au(PMe₃) (5), RuCl(dppm)₂ (7), RuCl(dppe)₂ (8)] and [Fe{η-C₅H₄---(E)---CH=CH---4-C₆H₄CH=CRuCl(dppm)₂}₂](PF₆)₂ (6) have been prepared and the identities of 1 and 7 confirmed by single-crystal X-ray structural studies. Complexes 1–8 exhibit reversible oxidation waves in their cyclic voltammograms attributed to the Fe^II/III couple of the ferrocenyl groups, 6–8 also showing reversible (7, 8) or non-reversible (6) processes attributed to Ru-centered oxidation. Cubic nonlinearities at 800 nm by the Z-scan method are low for 1–5; in contrast, complexes 6 and 7 exhibit large negative γ_real and large γ_imag values. A factor of 4 difference in γ and two-photon absorption cross-section σ₂ values for 6 and 7 suggest that they have potential as protically switchable NLO materials.     

Homo- and hetero-bridged mixed-valence dinuclear complexes which contain the fragment ‘Rh(C6F5)3’

The reaction of the anionic mononuclear rhodium complex [Rh(C₆F₅)₃Cl(Hpz)]^t- (Hpz = pyrazole, C₃H₄N₂) with methoxo or acetylacetonate complexes of Rh or Ir led to the heterodinuclear anionic compounds [(C₆F₅)₃Rh(μ-Cl)(μ-pz)M(L₂)] [M = Rh, L₂ = cyclo-octa-1,5-diene, COD (1), tetrafluorobenzobarrelene, TFB (2) or (CO)₂ (4); M = Ir, L₂ = COD (3)]. The complex [Rh(C₆F₅)₃(Hbim)]⁻ (5) has been prepared by treating [Rh(C₆F₅)₃(acac)]⁻ with H₂bim (acac = acetylacetonate; H₂bim = 2,2′-biimidazole). Complex 5 also reacts with Rh or Ir methoxo, or with Pd acetylacetonate, complexes affording the heterodinuclear complexes [(C₆F₅)₃Rh(μ-bim)M(L₂)]⁻ [M = Rh, L₂ = COD (6) or TFB (7); M = Ir, L₂ = COD (8); M = Pd, L₂ = η³-C₃H₅ (9)]. With [Rh(acac)(CO)₂], complex 5 yields the tetranuclear complex [{(C₆F₅)₃Rh(μ-bim)Rh(CO)₂}₂]₂₋. Homodinuclear Rh^III derivatives [{Rh(C₆F₅)₃}₂(μ-L)₂]^·- [L₂ = OH, pz (11); OH, S^tBu (12); OH, SPh (13); bim (14)] have been obtained by substitution of one or both hydroxo groups of the dianion [{Rh(C₆F₅)₃(μ-OH)}₂]²⁻ by the corresponding ligands. The reaction of [Rh(C₆F₅)₃(Et₂O)_x] with [PdX₂(COD)] produces neutral heterodinuclear compounds [(C₆F₅)₃Rh(μ-X)₂Pd(COD)] [X = Cl (15); Br (16)]. The anionic complexes 1–14 have been isolated as the benzyltriphenylphosphonium (PBzPh₃⁺) salts.

The reactions of RNHSi(Me)₂Cl (1, R=t-Bu; 2, R=2,6-(Me₂CH)₂C₆H₃) with the carborane ligands, nido-1-Na(C₄H₈O)-2,3-(SiMe₃)₂-2,3-C₂B₄H₅ (3) and Li[closo-1-R′-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀] (4), produced two kinds of neutral ligand precursors, nido-5-[Si(Me)₂N(H)R]-2,3-(SiMe₃)₂-2,3-C₂B₄H₅, (5, R=t-Bu) and closo-1-R′-2-[Si(Me)₂N(H)R]-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₀ (6, R=t-Bu, R′=Ph; 7, R=2,6-(Me₂CH)₂C₆H₃, R′=H), in 85, 92, and 95% yields, respectively. Treatment of closo-2-[Si(Me)₂NH(2,6-(Me₂CH)₂C₆H₃)]-1,2-C₂B₁₀H₁₁ (7) with three equivalents of freshly cut sodium metal in the presence of naphthalene produced the corresponding cage-opened sodium salt of the “carbons apart” carborane trianion, [nido-3-{Si(Me)₂N(2,6-(Me₂CH)₂C₆H₃)}-1,3-C₂B₁₀H₁₁]³⁻ (8) in almost quantitative yield. The reaction of the trianion, 8, with anhydrous MCl₄ (M=Ti and Zr) in 1:1 molar ratio in dry tetrahydrofuran (THF) at −78 °C, resulted in the formation of the corresponding half-sandwich neutral d⁰-metallacarborane, closo-1-M[(Cl)(THF)_n]-2-[1′-η¹σ-N(2,6-(Me₂CH)₂C₆H₃)(Me)₂Si]-2,4-η⁶-C₂B₁₀H₁₁ (M=Ti (9), n=0; M=Zr (10), n=1) in 47 and 36% yields, respectively.

The final refinements of 7 converged at R=0.0736; wR=0.1494; GOF=1.372 for observed reflections.

The complex [MoW(μ-CC₆H₄Me-4)(CO)₂(η⁷-C₇H₇)(η⁵-C₂B₉H₁₀Me)] reacts with diazomethane in Et₂O containing EtOH to afford the dimetal compound [MoW(OEt)(μ-CH₂){μ-C(C₆H₄Me-4)C(Me)O}(η⁷-C₇H₇)(η⁵-C₂B₉H₁₀Me)]. The structure of this product was established by X-ray diffraction. The Mo---W bond [2.778(4) Å] is bridged by a CH₂ group [μ-C---Mo 2.14(3), μ-C---W 2.02(3) Å] and by a C(C₆H₄Me-4)C(Me)O fragment [Mo---O 2.11(3), W---O 2.18(2), Mo---C(C₆H₄Me-4) 2.41(3), W---C(C₆H₄Me-4) 2.09(3), Mo---C(Me) 2.26(3) Å]. The molybdenum atom is η⁷-coordinated by the C₇H₇ ring and the tungsten atom is η⁵-coordinated by the open pentagonal face of the nido-icosahedral C₂B₉H₁₀Me cage. The tungsten atom also carries a terminally bound OEt group [W---O 1.88(3) Å]. The ¹H and ¹³C-{¹H} NMR data for the dimetal compound are reported and discussed.

A study of ortho- and para-siloxyanilines for the synthesis of mono-, bi-, and tetra-nuclear early transition metal–imido complexes

The siloxyanilines o-Me₃SiOC₆H₄NH₂ (1) and p-RMe₂SiOC₆H₄NH₂ (R=H (2); R=Me (3)), and their N-silylated derivatives p-Me₃SiOC₆H₄NHSiMe₃ (4) and p-Me₃SiOC₆H₄N(SiMe₃)₂ (5) have been prepared from ortho- or para-aminophenol and used in the synthesis of imido complexes. Thus, binuclear [{Ti(η⁵-C₅H₅)Cl}{μ-NC₆H₄(p-OSiMe₃)}]₂ (6) and mononuclear [TiCl₂{NC₆H₄(p-OSiMe₃)}(py)₃] (7) imido complexes have been obtained from the reaction of 3 and [Ti(η⁵-C₅H₅)Cl₃] or [TiCl₂(N^tBu)(py)₃], respectively. In contrast, the reaction of 1 with TiCl₄ and ^tBupy affords the titanocycle [TiCl₂{OC₆H₄(o-NH)---N,O}(^tBupy)₂] (8). Compound 5 has also been used to prepare the niobium imide complex [NbCl₃{NC₆H₄(p-OSiMe₃)}(MeCN)₂] (9), by its reaction with NbCl₅ in CH₃CN. These findings have been applied to the synthesis of polynuclear systems. Thus, chlorocarbosilane Si[CH₂CH₂CH₂Si(Me)₂Cl]₄ (CS–Cl) has been functionalized with the ortho- and para-aminophenoxy groups to give 10 and 11, respectively. The use of 11 has allowed the formation of the tetranuclear compound 12. Attempts to synthesize terminal imido titanium complexes from 10 and TiCl₄ in the presence of ^tBupy and Et₃N, give complex 8 and carbosilane CS–Cl.     

Heterobimetallic Mo---Sn complexes. Reactions of [Mo(CO)3(CH3CN)2(Cl)(SnRCl2)] (R = Me, Ph) with 4(4-XC6H4)3 (X = Cl, F, H, Me, MeO)

The type of compound obtained dependent on the solvent and concentration of the starting compound. So, [Mo(CO)₂(CH₃COCH₃)₂(PPh₃)(Cl)(SnRCl₂)]·nCH₃COCH₃ (R = Ph, n = 0.5; R = Me, n = 1) (type I) and [Mo(CO)₃{P(4-XC₆H₄)₃}(μ-Cl)(SnRCl₂)]₂ (R = Ph, X = Cl, F, H, Me, MeO; R = Me, X = Cl, F) (type II) were isolated from acetone solution in ca 0.05 M and 0.1 M concentrations, respectively. However, [Mo(CO)₃(CH₃CN) {P(4-XC₆H₄)₃}(Cl)(SnRCl₂)] (R = Ph, X = H; R = Me, X = Cl, F, H) (type III) were obtained from dichloromethane solution independently of the concentration used. All new complexes showed a seven-coordinate environment at molybdenum, containing Mo---Cl and Mo---Sn bonds. Mössbauer spectra indicated a four-coordination at tin for type III complexes.

The reaction of {HB(Me₂pz)₃}Mo(NCS)(S₄) [HB(Me₂pz)₃⁻ = hydrotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl)borate anion] with dicarbomethoxyacetylene in refluxing toluene results in the formation of the brown, diamagnetic complex {HB(Me₂pz)₃}Mo(NCS){S₂C₂(CO₂Me)₂} (1) (the reactants above also yield 1 upon prolonged reaction in dichloromethane at 25°C), which has been characterized by X-ray crystallography. The mononuclear pseudo-octahedral complex contains a facially tridentate HB(Me₂pz)₃⁻ ligand, a monodentate N-bound NCS⁻ ligand, and a bidentate S₂C₂(CO₂Me)₂²⁻ ligand having a near planar MoS₂C₄ fragment and a SC=CS bond distance of 1.342(15) Å. Solutions of 1 are unstable in air and decompose to produce {HB(Me₂pz)₃}MoO₂(NCS) and {HB(Me₂pz)₃}MoO(NCS)₂.

Chiroptische effekte von lanthanoidorganylen mit optisch aktiven liganden III. Erschließung wohldefinierter chiraler organosamarium(III)-verbindungen durch umsetzung von tris(cyclopentadienyl)samarium mit (1S,2R,5R)-Isomenthol, (R)-(+)-Isobutyllactat und (R)-(+)-Methyl-p-tolylsulfoxid

While each of the three organosamarium(III) title complexes: [Cp₂Sm{μ-OC₁₀H₁₉}]₂ (5; Cp = C₅H₅, OC₁₀H₁₉ = isomenthoxide), [Cp₂Sm{μ-OCH(Me)COOⁱBU}]₂ (6) and [Cp₃SmOS(Me)-p-C₆H₄Me] (7) contains a chiral ligand atom (i.e. C or S) next to the metal-bonded oxygen atoms, only the dinuclear compounds 5 and, even better, 6 display (below ca. 600 nm) significant circular dichroism of discrete f---f-crystal field transitions. According to a successful single-crystal X-ray study of 5, the cyclohexyl ring of its (1S,2R,5R)-isomenthoxide ligand adopts a conformation with axial OSm- and ⁱPr-substituents, which is energetically less favourable at least for neat (1S,2R,5R)-isomenthol.

Zusammenfassung

Obwohl jeder der drei neuen Organosamarium(III)-Komplexe: [Cp₂Sm{μ-OC₁₀OH₁₉}]₂ (5; Cp = C₅H₅, OC₁₀H₁₉ = Isomentholat), [Cp₂Sm{μ-OCH(Me)COOⁱBU}]₂ (6) und [Cp₃SmOS(Me)-p-C₆H₄Me] mindestens ein chirales Ligandenatom (C oder S) unmittelbar am metallkoordinierten O-Atom enthält, zeigen nur die dimeren Systeme 5 und noch ausgeprägter 6 (unterhalb von ca. 600 nm) signifikanten Circulardichroismus von f---f-Kristallfeldübergängen des Sm³⁺-Ions. Auf Grund einer erfolgreichen Kristallstrukturanalyse von 5 liegt der Cyclohexylring des (1S,2R,5R)-Isomentholatliganden ausschließlich in der Konformation mit axialen OSm- und ⁱPr-Substituenten vor, die für freies (1S,2R,5R)-Isomenthol energetisch deutlich unvorteilhafter ist.     

Synthesis and characterization of uranium(III) compounds supported by the hydrotris(3,5-dimethyl-pyrazolyl)borate ligand: Crystal structures of [U(Tp)2(X)] complexes (X = OC6H2-2,4,6-Me3, dmpz, Cl)

Reaction of [U(Tp^Me2)₂(NR₂)] (R = Ph, SiMe₃) with protic substrates such as 2,4,6-trimethylphenol (HOC₆H₂-2,4,6-Me₃), 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (Hdmpz), 2-mercaptopyridine (HSC₅H₄N) and phenylacetylene (HCCPh) afforded the corresponding [U(Tp^Me2)₂(OAr)] (Ar = C₆H₂-2,4,6-Me₃) (1), [U(Tp^Me2)₂(dmpz)] (2), [U(Tp^Me2)₂(η²-SC₅H₄N)] (3), and [U(Tp^Me2)₂(CCPh)] (4) compounds. Reaction of [U(Tp^Me2)₂(NR₂)] with Me₃SnCl or Me₃SiBr gave [U(Tp^Me2)₂Cl] (5) and [U(Tp^Me2)₂Br] (6), respectively, in high yield. The amido precursors failed to react with cyclopentadiene, but metathesis of [U(Tp^Me2)₂I] with NaCp yielded [U(κ³-Tp^Me2)(κ²-Tp^Me2)(η⁵-Cp)] (7). Thermolysis of 7 resulted in oxidation of the metal centre and redistribution of the ligands, giving [UCp₃(dmpz)] (8), pyrazabole (9) and [U(Tp^Me2)(dmpz)₃] (10). The complexes have been fully characterized by spectroscopic methods and the structures of 1, 2, and 5 were confirmed by X-ray crystallographic studies. In the solid state the complexes exhibit distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometries.     

π-Olefin-Iridium-Komplexe : XXI. Synthese und Kristallstrukturen heterobinuclearer Komplexe mit wannenförmiger, synfacial gebundener η: η-Benzolbrücke

CpIr(η⁴-C₆H₆) (2) has been obtained in high yield by a four-step synthesis. Thermal reaction of 2 with CpCO(C₂H₄)₂ and photochemical reaction of 2 with CpRh(C₂H₄)₂ or CpRh(C₂H₄)₂ give the compounds μ-(η³: η³-C₆H₆)CoIrCp₂ (3), μ-(η³: η³-C₆H₆)RhIrCp₂ (4), and μ-(η³: η³-C₆H₆)(RhCp)(IrCp) (5), respectively. The X-ray crystallography data of 3 and 4 reveal a boat-shaped conformation of the synfacially bridging benzene ligand with a rather long Co---Ir bond distance in 3 and a relatively short Rh---Ir bond length in 4 which are caused by almost constant folding angles of the benzene unit. The dynamic behaviour of the benzene bridge was investigated by NMR spectrometry.
