NMR investigation of bis(2,3-alkanedione dioximato)-bis(pyridine)cobalt(III) iodide complexes: 1H and 13C NMR spectra and 13C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements

The complexes of trans-[Co(III)(R,CH₃-dioxH)₂(py)₂]I2 (R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) were investigated in solution by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra and ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation time measurements. The ¹H and ¹³C-resonances of the R = C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇ and n-C₄H₉) groups were shifted to higher field than those of the free ligands by the complexation; it was attributable to the ring current shielding due to the axial pyridine ligands of the complexes. ¹³C spin-lattice relaxation times were interpreted as due to movement of the axial pyridine ligands as if they twist around the CoN (pyridine nitrogen) bond axis and the above R groups were moving segmentally. These segmental movements allowed the R groups to approach closely toward the axial pyridine ring plane to experience the ring current shielding.     

Polymerization of cyclic esters of phosphoric acid. VI. Poly(alkyl ethylene phosphates). Polymerization of 2-alkoxy-2-oxo-1,3,2-dioxaphospholans and structure of polymers

Five-membered cyclic esters of phosphoric acid of the general formula: ? CH₂CH(R)OP(O)-(OR′)O? polymerize readily to solid, soluble polymers of high molecular weight without any rearrangement known for various tri- and pentavalent organophosphorus monomers. ¹H-, ¹³C-, and ³¹P-NMR spectra of polymers confirmed their linear structure: where R is H, with R′ = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇, i-C₃H₇; n-C₄H₉, CCl₃CH₂, or C₆H₅, or R is CH₂Cl and R′ is C₂H₅. The use of n-C₄H₉Li, (C₅H₅)₂Mg, or (i-C₄H₉)₃Al as initiators leads to polymers with M _n = 10⁴–10⁵.     

New molybdenocene dihydrocarbyls

The preparation and characterization of [Mo(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂R₂)] (R  C₂H₅, ⁿC₄H₉,C₆H₅) and [Mo(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂R₂] PF₆ (R  C₂H₅, ⁿC₄H₉) are described. Cyclic voltammograms in CH₃CN and CH₂Cl₂ show that the reversible 1-electron oxidation of [Mo(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂R₂] (R  C₂H₅, ⁿC₄H₉) occurs at higher potentials (ca. −210 mV) than that for [Mo(η⁵-C₅H₅)₂(CH₃)₂] (ca. −270 mV).     

Rotational and vibrational distributions of N2(C 3Πu) excited by state-selected Ar(3P2) and Ar(3P0) metastable atoms

The ESR method is used to study the oxidation kinetics of the CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₄H₉, i-C₄H₉, s-C₄H₉, t-C₄H₉, n-C₆H₁₃, C₆H₁₁, C₆H₅CH₂, CH₃C₆H₄CH₂, and C₆H₅CH₂CH₂ radicals in methanol matrix at 87 K. The reaction kinetics are shown to be describable in terms of a time-dependent rate constant k(t). The contribution from the matrix relaxation to k(t) has been determined. The oxidation rate and the shape of the kinetic curve are independent of the type of the radical. Models interpreting the experimental data are discussed.     

Massenspektrometrische Untersuchungen an Organophosphorverbindungen. II—Elektronenstoßinduzierte Fragmentierungen von Tetraorganodiphosphandisulfiden

The behaviour under electron impact (70 eV) which includes some rearrangement processes of some tetraorganodiphosphanedisulfides R₂P(S)-P(S)R₂ (R ? CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇, n-C₄H₉, C₃H₅, C₆H₅) and CH₃RP(S)–P(S)CH₃R (R ? C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇, n-C₄H₉, C₆H₅, C₆H₅, C₆H₅,CH₂) is reported and discussed. Fragmentation patterns which are consistent with direct analysis of daughter ions and defocusing metastable spectra are given. The atomic composition of many of the fragment ions was determined by precise mass measurements. In contrast to compounds R₃P(S) loss of sulphur is not a common process here. The first step in the fragmentation of these compounds is cleavage of one P–C bond and loss of a substituent R?. The second step is elimination of RPS leading to [R₂PS]⁺ from which the base peaks in nearly all the spectra arise. The phenyl substituted compounds give spectra with very abundant [(C₆H₅)₃P]^+. and [(C₆H₅)₂CH₃P]^+. ions respectively, resulting from [M]^+. by migration of C₆H₅. Rearrangement of [M]^+. to a 4-membered P-S ring system prior to fragmentation is suggested.     

Reactions of nucleophilic addition of primary amines to the nitrilium derivative of the <Emphasis Type="Italic">closo</Emphasis>-decaborate anion [2-B<Subscript>10</Subscript>H<Subscript>9</Subscript>(N≡CCH<Subscript>3</Subscript>)]<Superscript>−</Superscript>

Compounds (Bu₄N)[2-B₁₀H₉{NH=C(NHR)CH₃}]⁻ are obtained by reactions of the tetrabutylammonium salt of the [2-B₁₀H₉(N≡CCH₃)]⁻ anion with aliphatic and aromatic primary amines RNH₂ (R = n-C₃H₇, n-C₄H₉, cyclo-C₅H₉, C₆H₅, cyclo-C₆H₁₁, n-C₆H₁₃, C₇H₇, C₈H₈NH₂, C₆H₄NO₂, and C₁₈H₃₇) and identified by IR, ESI/MS, and NMR (¹H, ¹¹B, and ¹³C) spectroscopy.

Säureinduzierte carbin-acylumwandlung

The reaction of dicarbonyl- and carbonyl(trimethylphosphine)(cyclopentadienyl)-carbyne complexes of molybdenum and tungsten η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)_2−n(PMe₃)_nMCR (n = 0, 1; M = Mo, W; R = CH₃, C₆H₅, C₆H₄CH₃, C₃H₅) with protic nucleophiles HX (X = Cl, CF₃COO, CCl₃COO) leads, through a combined protonation/carbon-carbon coupling reaction, to η²-acyl complexes η⁵-C₅H₅(CO)_1−nX₂(PMe₃)_n-M(η²-COCH₂R).

Photochemistry of methyl- and n1-benzyl-n5-cyclopentadienyltricarbonyltungstein(II)

Irradiation of solutions of n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃R (R  CH₃n1-CH₂C₆H₅) in cyclohexane at ca. 310490 nm leads to the formation of [n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃]₂ and methane and of n⁵-C₅H₅W₅(CO)₂(n³-CH₂C₆H₅) and some [n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃]₂, respectively. When the irradiation is carried out in the presence of excess P(C₆H₅)₃, the photoproducts are n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂[P(C₆H₅)₃]CH₃ (R  CH₃) and n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂(n₃-CH₂C₆H₅) and trace [n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃]₂ (R  n¹-CH₂C₆H₅). Photolysis of the n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃R in the presence of benzyl chloride affords n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃Cl (R  CH₃) and both n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂(n³-CH₂C₂H₅) and n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃Cl (R  n¹-CH₂C₆H₅), the relative amounts of the latter products depending on the quantity of added C₆H₅CH₂Cl. Irradiation of n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃-CH₃ in the presence of both P(C₆h₅)₃ and C₆H₅CH₂Cl affords n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂-[P(C₆H₅)₃]CH₃, but no n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃Cl. It is proposed that the primary photo-reaction in these transformations is dissociation of a CO group from n⁵-C₅H₅W-(CO)₃R to generate n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂R, which can either combine with L to form a stable 18 electron complex, n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₂(L)R (L  CO, P(C₅H₅)₃; LR  n³-CH₂C₆H₅), or lose the group R in a competing, apparently slower step. This proposal receives support from the observation that, light intensifies being equal, n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃CH₃ undergoes a considerably faster photoconversion to [n⁵-C₅H₅W(CO)₃]₂ under argon than under carbon monoxide.     

Novel heterocyclic selenazadiphospholaminediselenides, zwitterionic carbamidoyl(phenyl)-phosphinodiselenoic acids and selenoureas derived from cyanamides

2,4-Bis(phenyl)-1,3-diselenadiphosphetane-2,4-diselenide (Woollins’ reagent, WR) reacts with cyanamides (1a-h) in refluxing toluene to afford a series of novel selenazadiphospholaminediselenides (RR′NCN(PhP(Se)SeP(Se)Ph, R=C₆H₅(CH₂)_1-3, 4-n-C₁₀H₂₁C₆H₄ and 4-BrC₆H₄CH₂; R′=H, CH₃, C₂H₅ and C(O)OC₂H₅2a-g). Post-treatment of the reaction mixture with water led to the formation of carbamidoyl(phenyl)phosphinodiselenoic acids (RR′NC(NH₂)P(SeH)₂Ph, R=C₆H₅(CH₂)_2-3, 4-n-C₁₀H₂₁C₆H₄ and 4-BrC₆H₄CH₂; R′=H and CH₃, 3b, 3c, 3e and 3f) and selenoureas (RR′NC(Se)NH₂, R=C₆H₅(CH)_1-2; R′=CH₃ and OC(O)C₂H₅, 4f and 4h) in moderate to excellent yields. All new compounds are characterised spectroscopically and five X-ray crystal structures are reported.     

13C n.m.r. studies of organosilanes: II—substituent chemical shift parameters for alkoxysilanes

The ¹³C n.m.r. spectra of forty alkoxysilanes of the general type X_nSi(OR)_4–n (X = CH₃, C₆H₅, H; R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇, i-C₃H₇, n-C₄H₉, i-C₄H₉, s-C₄H₉, n-C₅H₁₁, CH(CH₃)(C₆H₅), C₆H₅) have been recorded and assigned. The chemical shifts of the α-carbon resonances of the alkoxy groups are shown to depend on both the nature of the alkoxy group and the number and type of substituents on the silicon. Regression analyses of the data give empirical substituent chemical shift (SCS) parameters for the silyl substituents. The β-carbon resonances are shown to be dependent on the presence of the silyl group, but not the specific silyl substituents.     

Carbonyl rhodium(I) complexes with α-diimines ligands

The reactions of [Rh(CO)₂Cl]₂ with α-diimines, RN=CR′-CR′=NR (R = c-Hex, C₆H₅, p-C₆H₄OH, p-C₆H₄CH₃, p-C₆H₄OCH₃, R′ = H; R = c-Hex, C₆H₅, p-C₆H₄OH, p-C₆H₄OCH₃; R′ = Me) in 2:1 Rh/R-dim ratio gave rise to ionic compounds [(CO)₂Rh.R-dim(R′,R′)][Rh(CO)₂Cl₂] which have been characterized by elemental analyses, electrical conductivity, ¹H-NMR and electronic and IR spectroscopy. Some of these complexes must involve some kind of metal-metal interaction. The complex [Rh(CO)₂Cl.c-Hex-dim(H,H)] has been obtained by reaction of [Rh(CO)₂Cl]₂ with the c-Hex-dim(H,H) ligand in 1:1 Rh/R-dim ratio. The reactions between [(CO)₂Rh.R-dim(H,H)][Rh(CO)₂Cl₂](R = c-Hex or p-C₆H₄OCH₃) with the dppe ligand have been studied. The known complex RhCl(CO)(PPh₃)₂ has been isolated from the reaction of [(CO)₂Rh.R-dim(H,H)]-[Rh(CO)₂Cl₂] (R = c-Hex or p-C₆H₄OCH₃) with PPh₃ ligand.

The magnetic susceptibility of all these complexes was also measured by the Faraday method at room temperature.     

Schiff base derivatives of lanthanons

Bifunctional tridentate Schiff bases such as, $$\begin{gathered} HOC_6 H_4 C(CH_3 ) : NCH_2 CH_2 OH, \hfill \\ HOC_6 H_4 C(CH_3 ) : NCH_2 CH_2 (OH)CH_3 , \hfill \\ HOC_6 H_4 C(H) : NCH_2 CH_2 OH \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ and HOC₆H₄C(H)∶NCH₂CH(OH)CH₃ react with La(III), Pr(III) and Nd(III) isopropoxides to 1∶1 and 2∶3 derivatives of the type,Ln(O?i-C₃H₇)(OC₆H₄C[R]∶NR′O) andLn ₂(OC₆H₄C[R]∶ NR′O)₃ [where,Ln=La(III), Pr(III) or Nd(III); R=CH₃ or H and R′=CH₂?CH₂ or CH₂CHCH₃] in dry benzene. The labile nature of the isopropoxy groups in the 1∶1 derivatives has been shown by exchange reactions with an excess oft-butyl alcohol leading to the formation ofLn(O?t-C₄H₉)(OC₆H₄C[R]∶NR′O); (where R=CH₃ and R′=CH₂CHCH₃) type derivatives in almost quantitative yield. The IR spectra of the resulting derivatives have been recorded in the range of 4000–400 cm^?1, ν C=N frequency bands appear at ≈ 1620 cm^?1 and almost no change has been noted in their positions on complexation. Some new peaks are, however, observed in the range of 700–600 cm^?1 and these may be ascribed to the ring deformation coupled with both theLn?O stretching and C?CH₃ stretching modes.

Proton and 13C NMR spectra of substituted methyl cyanopropionates: Effects of molecular asymmetry

The proton NMR spectra at 220 MHz of two series of substituted cyanopropionates, have been investigated. In addition the ¹³C spectra at 15 MHz of the series I were also studied. In I, where the R groups are diastereotopic, differences are observed in the proton chemical shifts of the CH₃ groups in R for R = CH₃, C₂H₅, n-C₃H₇, i-C₃H₇, n-C₄H₉, n-C₅H₁₁ and n-C₆H₁₃. In II [R′ = n-C₃H₇, CH(CH₃)₂, CH₂CH(CH₃)₂ and C(CH₃)₃] diastereoisomers are found with substantial differences in chemical shifts between corresponding protons. Coupling constants are interpreted in terms of conformational preferences for certain molecules in both series.     

Some novel triorganotin(IV) derivatives of β, δ-triketones

Thirty triorganotin(IV) derivatives of the type R₃Sn(R′COCHCOCH₂COR″) and [R₃Sn]₂ (R′COCHCOCHCOR″) (where R = CH₃, C₂H₅, nC₃H₇, nC₄H₉ and C₆H₅ and R′ = R″ = CH₃, C₆H₅ or R′ = C₆H₅, R″ = CH₃) have been synthesised by the interaction of R₃SnCl with mono- or disodium salt of 2, 4, 6-heptanetrione, 1-phenyl-1, 3, 5-hexanetrione and 1, 5-diphenyl-1, 3, 5-pentanetrione in 1:1 and 2:1 molar ratios, respectively. The complexes have been examined by their molecular weight, IR, PMR and elemental analyses and their tentative structures assigned. Both “Z” and “E” forms have been identified in the 1:1 complexes in equilibrium with the enol form containing five coordinate tin. The 2:1 derivatives contain one five- and other four coordinated tin(IV) except the phenyl analogue where both the tins are five coordinated.     

Insertion of isocyanides into the palladium-(2-pyridyl) bond

The reaction of the pyridyl-bridged binuclear complex [PdBr(μ-2-C₅H₄N)(PPh₃)]₂ with isocyynides CNR (R  p-C₆H₄OMe, Me, C₆H₁₁) yields the complex $\text{PdBr}${(&2.dbnd;NR)C(&2.dbnd;NR) (2-C₅H₄N)}(PPh₃)] containing a C,N-chelated 1,2-bis(imino)-2-(2-pyridyl)ethyl group, which results from successive insertions of two isocyanides molecules into the palladium2-pyridyl bond. The mononuclear compound trans-[PdBr(2-C₅H₄N)(PMePh₂)₂] readily reacts with various CNR ligands (R  p-C₆H₄OMe, Me, C₆H₁₁, CMe₃) to give the imino(2-pyridyl)methylpalladium(II) derivatives, trans-[Pdbr{C(=NR)(2-C₅H₄N)} (PMePh₂)₂].

Synthesis and characterization of the cluster complexes containing tetrahedral FeCrCo(μ3-S) cluster cores generated by isolobal displacement reactions. Crystal structures of (η-RC5H4)FeCrCo(μ3-S)(CO)8 (R=H, CO2Et) and FeCo2(μ3-S)2(CO)9

The monoanions (η⁵-RC₅H₄)(CO)₃Cr⁻ (1, R=H; 2, R=Me; 3, R=CO₂Et) reacted with tetrahedral cluster FeCo₂(μ₃-S)(CO)₉ to give single isolobal displacement products (η⁵-RC₅H₄)FeCrCo(μ₃-S)(CO)₈ (4, R=H; 5, R=Me; 6, R=CO₂Et) in 86-89% yields, whereas monoanion (η⁵-RC₅H₄)(CO)₃Cr⁻ (7, R=C(O)Me) reacted with FeCo₂(μ₃-S)(CO)₉ to afford the expected single isolobal displacement product (η⁵-RC₅H₄)FeCrCo(μ₃-S)(CO)₈ (8, R=C(O)Me) in 5% yield and an unexpected square pyramidal cluster FeCo₂(μ₃-S)₂(CO)₉ (9) in 45% yield.
