Synthesis and molecular structure of the complex [Ph3Sb(NO3)]2O·Me2CO

The reaction of silver nitrate with Ph₃-SbBr₂ in an ethanol-acetone solution afforded the complex [Ph₃Sb(NO₃)]₂O·Me₂C=O (1). According to the data of X-ray diffraction study of crystals of1, molecule1 contains a nonlinear O-bridge, which links two Sb atoms. The Sb atoms have a trigonal-bipyramidal configuration. The NO₃ group and the bridging oxygen atom are in axial positions and the three Ph substituents are in equatorial positions.

Structure and photochemical properties of [N′-(2-thienylidene)]benzhydrazide crystals

The x-ray structural study showed that [N-(2-thienylidene)]benzhydrazide does not form a crystal hydrate. The molecules in the crystal are loosely packed and joined by linear chains of intermolecular hydrogen bonds (IHB),. Like the previously investigated [N-(furfurylidene)] benzhydrazide, [N-(2-thienylidene)]benzhydrazide crystals were sensitive to UV radiation. The similarity in the structure of these compounds confirms the hypothesis that intermolecular N O phototransfer of a proton along the IHB chain can take place efficiently in loose structures in the noncrystal hydrates of the compounds investigated, in contrast to the previously studied crystal hydrates.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 1, pp. 87–90, January, 1991.

Synthesis,spectral properties and reactions of the novel dinuclear alkyne complexes [M(μ-I)I(CO)(NCMe)(η2-PhC2R)]2 (M = Mo or W,R = Ph or Me)

[MI₂(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] (M = Mo or W) and PhC₂R (R = Ph or Me) react in CH₂Cl₂ to initially afford the “four-electron” alkyne complexes [MI₂(CO)(NCMe)₂(η²-PhC₂R)], which subsequently dimerize to the novel iodide-bridged compounds [M(μ-I)I(CO)(NCMe)(η²-PhC₂R)]₂, with loss of acetonitrile.

Stepwise synthesis of [Os3(CO)8(R2C2)(R′2C2)] from [Os3(CO)10(R2C2)] under mild conditions,x-ray crystal structure of [Os3(CO)8(Ph2C2)2]; a bis(alkyne) without an osmacyclopentaidiene ring

Treatment of a solution of [Os₃(CO)₁₀(R₂C₂)] (R = Me (1, R = Ph (2)) in CH₂Cl₂ with Me₃No/MeCN in the presence of R′₂C₂ affords the new organometallic cluster [Os₃(CO)₈(R₂C₂)(R′₂C₂)] (R = R′ = Me (3), R = R′ = Ph (4) and R = Ph, R′ = Me (5)). A single crystal X-ray analysis of compound 4 has established a triangular metal framework with both the alkyne units coordinated in a μ₃-η²-6-mode. In toluene, at 80°C, compound 4 undergoes rearrangement to the known compound, [Os₃H(CO)₈(Ph)C₂(C₆H₄))] (6) in which CC bond formation has occurred to produce an osmacyclopentadiene ring.     

Influence of Lewis acids on the [4+2] cycloaddition of (2R,2′R)-N,N′-fumaroylbis[fenchane-8,2-sultam] to cyclopentadiene and cyclohexadiene

Compared to the analogous bornane-10,2-sultam derived dienophile (−)-1b, the reversed topology observed during the [4+2] cycloaddition of cyclopentadiene or cyclohexadiene to the (−)-1a–TiCl₄ chelate can be rationalised on the basis of IR studies of their complexes with different Lewis acids. According to X-ray analyses, the origin of this differentiation resides in the loss of masked C₂ symmetry, due to the pseudoequatorial ‘down’ orientation of the SO(1) bond in (−)-1a,c as compared to the pseudoequatorial ‘up’ direction adopted by the SO(2) bond in (−)-1b,d, associated with the steric influence of the apical Ti–Cl atoms. Dependent on the strength of the Lewis acid, the much higher constraint of the SO₂/CO syn-s-cis conformer diminishes the chelating properties of this type of fenchane-8,2-sultam derived dienophiles (−)-1a and 1c.     

Recognition of linear and bent forms of solid μ-oxo-bis[iodotriphenylantimony(V)] (Ph3SbI)2O

Two quite different shapes of the (Ph₃SbI)₂O molecule are found in separate crystals, namely 1a, in which the SbOSb bridge is linear with bond distances of 1.9410–1.9437(6) Å and 1b in which the SbOSb angle is 144.6(4)° and the SbO bonds are longer, averaging 1.971(8) Å. The two species also give distinct vibrational spectra. Both arise from the reaction of triphenylantimony with iodine in moist acetonitrile, 1a as the initial crop of colourless crystals and 1b as organe crystals left when the solution is allowed to evaporate to dryness.     

Synthesis and structural investigation of 4,4′-dimethyl-[3,3′-bi(1,2,5-oxadiazole)] 5,5′-dioxide

The oxidation of hexane-2,3,4,5-tetraone tetraoxime with dinitrogen tetroxide was studied in different solvents. The primary furoxan ring closure was found to occur involving either two central or two terminal oxime groups to form 4,7-dimethyl[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-d]pyridazine 1,5,6-trioxide and the previously unknown 4,4′-dimethyl-[3,3′-bi(1,2,5-oxadiazole)] 5,5′-dioxide. The structure of the latter compound was established by X-ray diffraction.     

Synthesis and Properties of Polyamides of 2,2′-[Isopropylidenebis-(p-phenyleneoxy)] diacetic Acid

A group of six semiaromatic polyamides of 2,2′-[isopropylidenebis-(p-phenyleneoxy)]diacetic acid (Bisacid A₂) were synthesized by low-temperature solution polycondensation techniques. Six different diamines were condensed independently with Bisacid A₂ chloride in a mixture of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP and hexamethylhosphoramide (HMPA). The polymers were obtained in 82–95% yield and possessed inherent viscosities in the range from 0.32 to 0.63 dL/g. The polyamides were characterized by IR and 'H-NMR spectra. The molecular weight and molecular weight distribution of the polyamides were determined by gel-permeation chromatography. The thermal stability, thermal degradation kinetics, crystallinity, density, and solubility were also determined. A model diamide (MDA) was synthesized from aniline and Bisacid A₂ chloride to confirm the formation of polyamides from diamines.     

Assembly of triorganotin chloride with selenite ligands to macrocyclic,zigzag, helical,and linear structures: syntheses,characterizations, and crystal structures of [R3Sn(O2SeC6H4-4-Et)] n and [R3Sn(O2SeC6H4-2-Et)] n (R = Me,C6H5) complexes

Four new triorganotin(IV) complexes, [R₃Sn(O₂SeC₆H₄-4-Et)]₄ (R = Me 1), [R₃Sn(O₂SeC₆H₄-4-Et)] _n (R = Ph 2), [R₃Sn(O₂SeC₆H₄-2-Et)] _n (R = Me 3; Ph 4) have been synthesized by the treatment of 4-ethylbenzeneseleninic acid, 2-ethylbenzeneseleninic acid, and the corresponding triorganotin(IV) chloride with sodium ethoxide in methanol. All of the complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, NMR (¹H, ¹³C, and ¹¹⁹Sn) spectroscopy, TGA, and X-ray crystallography. Crystal structures show that all of the complexes are generated by the bidentate oxygen atoms and the five-coordinated tin centers with trigonal bipyramid geometry. The structural analyses reveal that complex 1 has a centrosymmetric tetranuclear triorganotin selenite with 16-membered macrocycle, which is formed by trimethyltin and ligand alternate linking. A series of C–H···O and π–π stacking interactions in complex 1 play an important function in the supramolecular aggregation. Complex 3 has two 1D spring-like chiral helical chains and crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁, which is chiral. Complex 2 and 4 are both 1D infinite neutral chain polymers and complex 2 forms a 2D supramolecular framework through intermolecular C–H···O interactions.     

Convenient synthetic routes to MePdII,Me2PdII,and Me3PdIV complexes. The crystal structure of the MePdII complex [MePd(2,2′-bipyridyl)(γ-picoline)]BF4

The pyridazine complex [Me₂Pd(pyd)]_n, stable as a solid on storage at ca. −20°C and obtained on reaction of trans-PdCl₂(SMe₂)₂ pyridazine at low temperature, is an excellent precursor for the synthesis of Me₂Pd^II and Me₃Pd^IV complexes under mild conditions, in p Similarly, [MePd(SMe₂)(μ-I)]₂ is a suitable precursor for the synthesis of neutral and cationic MePd^II complexes, including [MePd(2,2′-     

Reactions of [WI2(CO)(NCMe)(η2-RC2R)2] (R = Me or Ph) with carbon monoxide to give either [WI2(CO)2(η2-MeC2Me)2] or [W(-I) I(CO) (η2-PhC2Ph)2]2. Crystal structure of [WI2(CO) 2( η2-MeC2Me)2]

The complexes [WI₂(CO)(NCMe)(η2)-RC₂R)₂] (R = Me and Ph) react in CH₂Cl₂ with an excess of carbon monoxide to give initially the acetonitrile substituted products [WI₂(CO)₂(η²-RC₂R) ₂]. For R= Me, the complex [WI₂(CO)₂(η²- MeC₂Me)₂] (1) was isolated and its structure determined by X-ray crystallography. However, for R = Ph, dimerisation occurs to give the iodide-bridged compound [W(μ-I)I(CO)(η²-PhC₂Ph)₂]₂ (2) with loss of carbon monoxide. These reactions are reversible as 1 and 2 react with acetonitrile to give [WI₂(CO)(NCMe)(η²-RC₂R)₂]. The ¹³C NMR spectra of I and 2 indicate that the two alkyne ligands donate a total of six electrons to the tungsten in these complexes.
