Germanium-rich pentaruthenium carbonyl clusters including Ru(5)(CO)(11)(mu-GePh(2))(4)(mu(5)-C) and its reactions with hydrogen

The reaction of Ru(5)(CO)(15)(mu(5)-C), 1, with Ph(3)GeH at 150 degrees C has yielded two new germanium-rich pentaruthenium cluster complexes: Ru(5)(CO)(11)(mu-CO)(mu-GePh(2))(3)(mu(5)-C), 2; Ru(5)(CO)(11)(mu;-GePh(2))(4)(mu(5)-C), 3. Both compounds contain square pyramidal Ru(5) clusters with GePh(2) groups bridging three and four of the edges of the Ru(5) square base, respectively. When treated with 1 equiv of Ph(3)GeH at 150 degrees C compound 2 is converted to 3. Reaction of 3 with H(2) at 150 degrees C yielded Ru(5)(CO)(10)(mu-GePh(2))(4)(mu(5)-C)(mu-H)(2), 4, containing two hydride ligands and one less CO ligand. Reaction of 4 with hydrogen at 150 degrees C yielded the compound Ru(5)(CO)(10)(mu-GePh(2))(2)(mu(3)-GePh)(2)(mu(3)-H)(mu(4)-CH), 5, by loss of benzene and conversion of two of the bridging GePh(2) groups into triply bridging GePh groups. Compound 5 contains one triply bridging hydride ligand and a quadruply bridging methylidyne ligand formed by addition of one hydrogen atom to the carbido carbon atom.     

Methyl substituent at C(2) carbon of acetophenone thiosemicarbazone induces unusual heterobridging in the [(Ph(3)P)Cu(mu-I)(2)(mu-S-Haptsc)Cu(PPh(3))] dimer

The sulfur of acetophenone thiosemicarbazone {(Ph)(Me)C=N-NH-C(=S)NH(2); Haptsc} and two iodine atoms form an unusual heterobridge in the dinuclear complex [(Ph(3)P)Cu(mu-I)(2)(mu-S-Haptsc)Cu(PPh(3))] (1), leading to a short Cu--Cu distance of 2.504(1) Angstrom. This uncommon heterobridging is attributed to the presence of a methyl substituent at the Schiff base C2 carbon atom of the acetophenone thiosemicarbazone.     

Structural characterization of the picket fence (TpivPP) porphyrins Co(TpivPP), Co(TpivPP)(NO2)(1-MeIm), and Co(TpivPP)(NO2)(1,2-Me2Im)

The compounds Co(TpivPP) (1), Co(TpivPP)(NO2)(1-MeIm) (2), and Co(TpivPP)(NO2)(1,2-Me2Im) (3) have been synthesized (TpivPP = meso-tetrakis(alpha, alpha, alpha, alpha-o-pivalamidophenyl)porphyrinato dianion), and their structures have been determined with single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. 1: a = 17.578(1) A, b = 17.596(1) A, c = 20.639(1) A, beta = 115.03(1) degrees, P2(1)/c, Z = 4, T = -120 degrees C. 2: a = 18.522(4) A, b = 18.942(4) A, c = 18.177(4) A, beta = 90.68(3) degrees, C2/c, Z = 4, T = -70 degrees C. 3: a = 18.998(4) A, b = 19.187(4) A, c = 18.000(4) A, beta = 90.96(3) degrees, C2/c, Z = 4, T = -120 degrees C. Compounds 2 and 3 have crystallographically imposed 2-fold axes. In 2 and 3, which represent R-state (relaxed) and T-state (tense) models, respectively, for hemoglobin, the NO2 ligand is bound on the "picket" side to the Co atom, and either 1-MeIm (for 2) or 1,2-Me2Im (for 3) is bound to the Co atom at the sixth coordination site on the sterically unhindered side of the molecule. The average deviations of atoms from the 24-atom porphyrin core are 0.031, 0.129, and 0.117 A for 1, 2, and 3, respectively. The Co atom is -0.043(1) A out of the mean 24-atom porphyrin plane toward the 1-MeIm ligand in 2 and -0.089(1) A out of the plane toward the 1,2-Me2Im ligand in 3. The bonds of both axial ligands in the R-state model 2, 1.898(4) A for Co-N(O2) and 1.995(4) A for Co-N(base), are shorter than the corresponding bonds in the T-state model 3, 1.917(4) A for Co-N(O2) and 2.091(4) A for Co-N(base).     

(1-(Dimethylamino)-2-(diphenylphosphino)ethane)(eta(3)-1-arylallyl)palladium Tetrafluoroborates. Preparation, Isomeric Equilibria, and Correlations of NMR Chemical Shifts with Hammett Substituent Constants

13C NMR differences of chemical shifts (delta(X) - delta(H)) of allyl carbon atoms in a series of trans-(1-(diphenylphosphino)-2-(dimethylamino)ethane)(eta(3)-1-arylallyl)palladium tetrafluoroborates, X ranging from NO(2) to OMe, correlate very well with sigma Hammett constants for C-1 and with sigma(+) for C-3, this carbon atom being in a trans relationship with the positively charged nitrogen atom.     

Reaction products of W(CO)(6) with formamidines; electronic structure of a W(2)(mu-CO)(2) core with unsymmetric bridging carbonyls

Reactions of W(CO)(6) with formamidines contrast with those of Mo(CO)(6) and Cr(CO)(6) in that the former do not yield quadruply bonded dimetal species. From the reaction of W(CO)(6) with HDAniF (HDAniF = N,N'-di-p-anisylformamidine), several new ditungsten carbonyl compounds (W(2)(mu-CO)(2)(mu-DAniF)(2)(eta(2)-DAniF)(2) (1), W(2)(mu-CO)(2)(mu-DAniF)(2)(eta(2)-DAniF)(eta(2)-CH(2)DAniF) (2), and W(2)(mu-CO)(mu-CNC(6)H(4)OCH(3))(mu-DAniF)(2)(eta(2)-DAniF)(2) (3)) have been isolated and fully characterized. In 2, CH(2)DAniF represents a DAniF ligand in which a methylene group has been added to one of the nitrogen atoms. This ligand binds to the tungsten atom using a nitrogen and a carbon atom. Compound 1 has a tungsten-tungsten bond distance of 2.476(1) A and a planar W(2)(mu-CO)(2) core structure which has C(2)(h)() symmetry with short and long W-C bond distances (1.99(1) and 2.28(1) A, respectively). DFT calculations on a model of 1 indicate that (a) the C(2)(h)() instead of D(2)(h)() symmetry of the ditungsten core may be attributed to W --> CO pi back-bonding interactions and (b) the bond between the tungsten atoms may be formulated as a double bond. The new tetragonal paddlewheel compound W(2)(DAniF)(4) (4) and the edge-sharing bioctahedron W(2)(mu-O)(mu-NC(6)H(3)Cl(2))(mu-D(Cl)PhF)(2)(eta(2)-D(Cl)PhF)(2) (5) (D(Cl)PhF = N,N'-di-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)formamidinate) have also been prepared.

A new ruthenium(II) complex [Ru(NO₂)₄(CO)(H₂O)]Cl₂ · 2H₂O has been prepared and characterized structurally. The compound crystallizes in monoclinic space group C2 /m, with the unit cell parameters a = 12.913(2), b = 14.605(2), c = 7.4494(1)Å, ß =121.49(2)°; V = 1198.0(3)ų, Z = 4, D_c = 2.429 Mgm^—3; μ = 1.83 mm^—1; R = 0.0455, wR = 0.1552. The complex contains four neutral NO₂ ligands. The ruthenium atom is six‐coordinated to four nitrogen atoms of nitrogen dioxide, one carbon atom from carbon monoxide and one oxygen atom from water molecule, forming slightly distorted octahedral coordination. The preparation procedure has been discussed.

In the complex, the central Ir(III) atom displays a distorted octahedral geometry wherein the equatorial positions are occupied by four oxygen atoms of two acetylacetone ligands, and the apical positions are coordinated by a carbon atom of one acetylacetone ligand and a nitrogen atom of pyridine.     

Isomerism and fluxional behaviour in η2 -vinyl complexes resulting in inversion of configuration at an asymmetric carbon atom. The crystal and molecular structures of two isomeric forms of [MoCl{η2 -C(CF3)C(CF3)(PEt3)} (CF3CCCF3)(η5 -C5H5)]

η² -Vinyl complexes [MCl{η² -C(CF₃)C(CF₃)L} (CF₃CCCF₃)(η⁵ -C₅H₅)] (M = Mo, W: L = tertiary phosphine or phosphite or pyridine) have been shown by NMR and X-ray diffraction studies to exist in two distinct isomeric forms which exhibit (a) different orientations of the η² -vinyl ligand (b) different configurations at the asymmetric carbon atom of the η² -vinyl ligand: variable temperature NMR studies reveal fluxional behaviour thought to involve reversible inversion of configuration at this carbon atom.

Synthesis and crystal structures of (fulvalene)W(2)(SH)(2)(CO)(6), (fulvalene)W(2)(mu-S(2))(CO)(6), and (fulvalene)W(2)(mu-S)(CO)(6): low valent tungsten carbonyl sulfide and disulfide complexes stabilized by the bridging fulvalene ligand

Reaction of FvW(2)(H)(2)(CO)(6) with 2/8S(8) in THF results in rapid and quantitative formation of FvW(2)(SH)(2)(CO)(6). The crystal structure of this complex is reported and shows that the two tungsten-hydrosulfide groups are on opposite faces of the fulvalene ligand in an anti configuration. Nevertheless, treatment of FvW(2)(SH)(2)(CO)(6) (1) with PhN[double bond]NPh produces FvW(2)(mu-S(2))(CO)(6) (2) and Ph(H)NN(H)Ph. The crystal structure of the bridging disulfide, which cocrystallizes with 1 in a 2:1 ratio, is also described. Exposure of 2 equiv of *CrCp*(CO)(3) to 1 effects similar H atom transfers yielding 2 HCrCp*(CO)(3) and 2. Attempts to obtain crystals of the latter from solutions derived from this reaction mixture furnished a third product, FvW(2)(mu-S)(CO)(6) (3), which was analyzed crystallographically. The enthalpy of sulfur atom insertion into FvW(2)(H)(2)(CO)(6), yielding 1, has been measured by solution calorimetry.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of[Ni(C5H2N2O4)(2, 2'-bipy)(H2O)2]·2H2O

The crystal structure of [Ni(C5H2N2O4)(2, 2?-bipy)(H2O)2]·2H2O 1 has been determined by X-ray diffraction. Crystal data: triclinic system, space group P ī with a = 7.9424(3), b = 9.9417(3), c = 12.1867(3) (A。）, α = 84.771(1), β = 77.375(2), γ = 68.993(2)°, C15H18N4O8Ni, Mr = 440.7, V = 876.16(5) (A。）3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.672 g/cm3, F(000) = 456, ((MoK() = 1.162 mm-1, the final R = 0.0464 and wR = 0.1055 for 3026 observed reflections with I > 2((I). In the title compound, the nickel ion is coordinated by a nitrogen atom and an oxygen atom from the orotate ligand, two nitrogen atoms from 2, 2'-bipy and two oxygen atoms from the coordinated water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. The presence of intermolecular hydrogen bonding and (-( stacking interaction of aromatic rings from 2, 2'-bipy results in a 3D structure.     

Diminished electron density in the Vaska‐type rhodium(I) complex trans‐[Rh(NCBH3)(CO)(PPh3)2]

Vaska‐type complexes, i.e. trans‐[RhX(CO)(PPh₃)₂] (X is a halogen or pseudohalogen), undergo a range of reactions and exhibit considerable catalytic activity. The electron density on the Rh^I atom in these complexes plays an important role in their reactivity. Many cyanotrihydridoborate (BH₃CN⁻) complexes of Group 6–8 transition metals have been synthesized and structurally characterized, an exception being the rhodium(I) complex. Carbonyl(cyanotrihydridoborato‐κN)bis(triphenylphosphine‐κP)rhodium(I), [Rh(NCBH₃)(CO)(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂], was prepared by the metathesis reaction of sodium cyanotrihydridoborate with trans‐[RhCl(CO)(PPh₃)₂], and was characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis and IR, ¹H, ¹³C and ¹¹B NMR spectroscopy. The X‐ray diffraction data indicate that the cyanotrihydridoborate ligand coordinates to the Rh^I atom through the N atom in a trans position with respect to the carbonyl ligand; this was also confirmed by the IR and NMR data. The carbonyl stretching frequency ν(CO) and the carbonyl carbon ¹J_C–Rh and ¹J_C–P coupling constants of the C_ipso atoms of the triphenylphosphine groups reflect the diminished electron density on the central Rh^I atom compared to the parent trans‐[RhCl(CO)(PPh₃)₂] complex.     

The unusual iron complex with a trimethylenemethane type ligand, (η5-cyclopentadienyldicarbonylmanganese)- (phenylmethylene)carbomethaneiron tricarbonyl [Cp(CO)2 MnC(CO)CHPh]Fe(CO)3

The binuclear complex with composition [Cp(CO)₂ MnC(CO)CHPh]Fe(CO)₃ is obtained by interaction of CpMn(CCHPh)(CO)₂ with Fe₂C0)₉. An X-ray study of this complex has shown that besides three carbonyl groups the iron atom is covalently bonded to four atoms, viz. the carbon of a phenylmethylene group, the carbon of a bridging CO group, the manganese atom and the central carbon of the organomanganese ligand lying just above iron. It seems to be the first example of a heteroatomic analogue of trimethylenemethane complexes.
