ChemInform Abstract: A Matrix Isolation and Computational Study of Molecular Palladium Fluorides: Does PdF6 Exist?

Binary palladium fluorides from PdF to PdF₆ are investigated by matrix‐isolation methods using thermal evaporation and laser ablation to generate Pd atoms for reaction with F₂‐doped Ar and Ne matrices as well as neat F₂ matrices.     

Synthesis,thermal and spectral studies of oxoperoxo and dioxo complexes of vanadium(V), molybdenum(VI) and tungsten(VI) with 2-(α-hydroxyalkyl/aryl)benzimidazole

Reaction of 2-(-hydroxymethyl)benzimidazole or 2-(-hydroxyethyl)benzimidazole (LH) with the peroxovanadium(V) species, generated in situ by stirring V₂O₅, KOH and 30% aqueous H₂O₂, gives the corresponding complexes of formula K[VO(O₂)L₂]. Similar peroxo species of molybdenum and tungsten generated by stirring MoO₃ or WO₃·H₂O with an excess of 30% aqueous H₂O₂ readily react with 2-(-hydroxyethyl) benzimidazole in aqueous EtOH to give the peroxo complexes [MO(O₂)L₂] (M=Mo or W). The dioxo complexes of general formula [MO₂L₂] have also been isolated by the reaction of [MoO₂(acac)₂] or [WO₂- (acac)₂] (acacH=acetylacetone) with the above ligands and with 2-(-hydroxybenzyl)benzimidazole. The dioxo complexes are white, whereas peroxo complexes are light yellow to orange. The peroxo complexes generally decompose in two steps: (i) the decomposition of the peroxo group and (ii) the decomposition of the alkyl/aryl group followed by decomposition of the complete ligand. On the other hand, decomposition of the dioxo complexes follows only in a later step. All the peroxo complexes exhibit three i.r. active vibrational modes at ca. 860cm^–1, 760cm^–1 and 600cm^–1, characteristic of the ²-coordinated peroxo group. The dioxo complexes are dominated by the presence of two sharp bands in the 900cm^–1 region due to _sym(O=M=O) and _asym(O=M=O) modes. The (C=N) (ring) and (OH) shifts have also been measured in order to locate the coordination sites of the ligands. A broad band at ca. 400nm in the peroxovanadium(V) complexes, while the absorption at ca. 350nm in the peroxomolybdenum(VI) and tungsten(VI) complexes is assigned to the peroxo-metal charge transfer band.

Carbene complexes of molybdenum and tungsten Et3E-CH=M(NAr)(OR)2 (M = Mo, W; E = Si, Ge) and π-complex of molybdenum (RO)2(ArN)Mo(CH2=CH-GeEt3). Synthesis and catalytic properties

The heteroelement-containing alkylidene imide complexes with molybdenum and tungsten Et₃SiCH=Mo(NAr)(OR)₂ (I), Et₃ ECH=W(NAr)(OR)₂ (E = Si (II), Ge (III); Ar = 2,6-i-Pr₂C₆H₃; R=CMe₂ CF₃) and π-complex (RO)₂(ArN)Mo(CH₂=CH-GeEt₃) (IV) were synthesized by the reaction of Alkyl-CH=M(NAr) (OR)₂ (M=Mo, W; Alkyl = t-Bu, PhMe₂C) with organosilicon and organogermanium vinyl reagents Et₃ECH=CH₂ (E = Si, Ge). The structure of compounds I–III was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The complexes I–IV are active initiators of metathesis polymerization of cycloolefins.
