Unsaturation in binuclear cyclopentadienylchromium carbonyl thiocarbonyls: Viability of (η-C5H5)2Cr2(CS)2(CO)3 in contrast to (η-C5H5)2Cr2(CO)5

The cyclopentadienylchromium carbonyl thiocarbonyls Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)_n (n = 4, 3, 2, 1) have been studied by density functional theory using the B3LYP and BP86 functionals. The lowest energy Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)₄ structure can be derived from the experimentally characterized unbridged Cp₂Cr₂(CO)₆ structure by replacing the two terminal carbonyl groups furthest from the Cr-Cr bond with two terminal CS groups. The two lowest energy Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)₃ structures have a single four-electron donor η²-μ-CS group and a formal Cr-Cr single bond of length ∼3.1 Å. In contrast to the carbonyl analogue Cp₂Cr₂(CO)₅ these Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)₃ structures are viable with respect to disproportionation into Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)₄ and Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)₂ and thus are promising synthetic targets. The lowest energy Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)₂ structures have all two-electron donor CO and CS groups and short CrCr distances around ∼2.3 Å suggesting the formal triple bonds required to give the chromium atoms the favored 18-electron configurations. These Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)₂ structures are closely related to the known structure for Cp₂Cr₂(CO)₄. In addition, several doubly bridged structures with four-electron donor η²-μ-CS bridges are found for Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO)₂ at higher energies. The global minimum Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO) structure is a triply bridged triplet with a CrCr triple bond (2.299 Å by BP86). A higher energy singlet Cp₂Cr₂(CS)₂(CO) structure has a shorter Cr-Cr distance of 2.197 Å (BP86) suggesting the formal quadruple bond required to give each chromium atom the favored 18-electron configuration.

Cyclopentadienyl chromium and tungsten complexes with halide, methyl and σ-phenylethynyl ligands: Structures of (η-C5H5)Cr(NO)2(-CC-C6H5), (η-C5H5)Cr(NO)2I and [(η-C5H4)-COOCH3]W(CO)3Cl

With copper(I) iodide as catalyst, σ-alkynyls, compounds (η⁵-C₅H₅)Cr(NO)₂(CC-C₆H₅) (5), [(η⁵-C₅H₄)-COOCH₃]Cr(NO)₂(CC-C₆H₅) (10), and [(η⁵-C₅H₄)-COOCH₃]W(CO)₃(CC-C₆H₅) (13), were prepared from their corresponding metal chloride 1, 6 and 12. Structures of compound 3, 5 and 12 have been solved by X-ray diffraction studies. In the case of 5, there is an internal mirror plane passing through the phenylethynyl ligand and bisecting the Cp ring. The phenyl group is oriented perpendicularly to the Cp with an eclipsed conformation. The twist angle is 0° and 118.4° for -CC-Ph and two NO ligands, respectively. The orientation is rationalized in terms of orbital overlap between ψ₃ of Cp, dπ of Cr atom, and π^∗ of alkynyl ligand, and complemented by molecular orbital calculation. The opposite correlation was observed on the chemical shift assignments of C(2)-C(5) on Cp ring in compounds 6 and 12, using HetCOR NMR spectroscopy. The electron density distribution in the cyclopentadienyl ring is discussed on the basis of ¹³C NMR data and compared with the calculations via density functional B3LYP correlation-exchange method.

Solid-state isomerisation reactions of (η-C5H4R)M(CO)2(PR3)I (M=W, Mo; R=Bu, Me; R=Ph, OPr3)

The cis and trans monosubstituted cyclopentadienyl tungsten and molybdenum complexes (η⁵-C₅H₄R)M(CO)₂(L)I (1) (M=W, R=Me, ^tBu, L=P(OⁱPr)₃, PPh₃; M=Mo, R=Me, L=PPh₃) have been synthesised and fully characterised by elemental analysis and IR and NMR spectroscopy. It was found that 1 underwent a thermal solid-state ligand isomerisation reaction and that the favoured direction of the isomerisation reaction is related to the melting points of the cis and trans isomers, i.e., with intermolecular forces in the solid state. No obvious relationship between the melting point and the metal, the ring-substituent or the ligand was observed. Crystal structure determinations of the cis and trans isomers of (η⁵-C₅H₄Me)W(CO)₂(PPh₃)I reveal that a limited amount of isomer conversion can be accommodated in the unit cell of the trans isomer, prior to crystal fragmentation. The rearrangement of the molecules within the unit cell, during isomerisation, also leads to disorder in the crystal.
