C-C bond formation at polynuclear metal centers

Studies on C-C bond formation between simple hydrocarbon species such as CH₂, C=CH₂, CH=CH₂, CH₂=CH₂, CH₂=C=CH₂ and CHCH at a diruthenium center suggest that the process is promoted when the dimetal center can readily compensate for the two electrons lost in the formation of the new C-C bond. Thus, whereas -CH₂ and ethene combine only under forcing conditions, the combination of -CH₂ with allene or ethyne, which have additional -electrons available for coordination, occurs readily at room temperature. Likewise, the availability of uncoordinated -electrons in -C=CH₂ allows vinylidene to link rapidly with ethene at room temperature. Alkyne complexes [Ru₂(CO)(-RCCR)(-C₅H₅)₂] (R=CF₃ or Ph) react only under vigorous conditions with additional alkyne to give [Ru₂(CO)(-C₄R₄) (-C₅H₅)₂], but give these same species at room temperature in the presence of acid, shown to be due to the intermediacy of highly reactive 30-electron -vinyl cations. Thermally, alkyne linking proceedsvia three-alkyne species [Ru₂(-C₆R₆)(-C₅H₅)₂] to a four-alkyne complex [Ru₂(-C₈R₈)(-C₅H₅)₂], containing an unprecedented C₈ ligand composed of a C₆ ring with a C₂ tail. Treatment of [Ru₂(CO)(-RCCR)(-C₅H₅)₂] with unsaturated metal fragments gives trimetal complexes such as [Ru₃(CO)₅(₃-CF₃CCCF₃) (-C₅H₅)₂]. The MeCN derivative of this species undergoes unusual linking processes on reaction with additional alkyne to giveinter alia [Ru₃(CO)₃(₃-CCF₃){₃-C₃(CF₃)₃}(-C₅H₅)₂], arising from alkyne cleavage, and [Ru₃(CO)₃{₃-C₄(CF₃)₂(CO₂Me)₂}(-C₅H₅)₂], a closo-pentagonal bipyramidal Ru₃C₄ cluster.

Reaction of benzyl chloride with propylene and trifluoropropene under metallocomplex initiation conditions

The reactions of benzyl chloride with propylene and 3,3,3-trifluoropropene in the presence of Fe(CO)₅ ` + DMF were studied. With propylene, the reaction stops at the addition stage with the simultaneous formation of dibenzyl. In the case of 3,3,3-trifluoropropene, a telomerization takes place, whereby the second growing radical C₆H₅CH₂CH₂CH(CF₃)CH₂HCF₃ practically completely isomerizes with a 1,5-migration into the radical C₆H₅HCH₂CH(CF₃)CH₂CH₂CF₃. To confirm the structure of the isolated compounds, chromato-mass-spectrometry and¹³C NMR were used.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 6, pp. 1384–1388, June, 1991.     

Gas chromatography of saturated fluorinated carboxylic acid esters. 3. Temperature effect on gas chromatographic parameters

In six homologous (R_FC(O)O(CH₂)_mCH₃, m=0–5) and six pseudohomologous (CF₃-(CF₂)_nC(O)OR, n=0–5) of saturated, fluorinated carboxylic acid esters the effect of analysis temperature (T_a) in the range 60–160°C on the values of retention indexes (I) and on the differential molar free energy, enthalpy, and entropy of sorption of methylene and difluoromethylene groups when using SE-30 and SKTFT-50Kh as the stationary phase (SP) was studied. For each homolog I decreases linearly as T_a increases, but the values of dI/dT_a are different for different homologs and increase as the length of the fluorinated chain increases. The sorption parameters H_m (CH₂) and S_m(CH₂) are constant when m > 3 and H_n (CF₂) and S_n(CF₂) vary regularly as n varies. The values of H_m (CH₂) and S_m (CH₂) exceed those of the corresponding H_n (CF₂) and S_n (CF₂) for m=n when adsorbed on both SPs. The thermodynamic sorption parameters of the esters for m=1 and n=1 differ sharply from the corresponding parameters for m > 2 and n > 2.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 7, pp. 1487–1493, July, 1991.

Investigation of conjugation in the Si-O-C-C-N system by nuclear magnetic resonance

The proton-magnetic-resonance spectra were investigated for 19 -aminoethoxysilanes in the R_4-nSi(OCH₂CH₂NR₂)_n and R_3-m(CH₂CH₂OR)_m series, where R=CH₃, C₂H₅, or C₆H₅; R=H, CH₃, C₂H₅, or Si(CH₃)₃; and the values of n and m are 1–4 and 1–3, respectively. In the Si-O-C-C-N system the effect of substituents at the nitrogen or silicon atoms is transmitted either by conjugation in the chain or, when the conjugation is broken, by an induction mechanism.     

A Nonempirical Quantum-Chemical Study and Natural Bond Orbital Analysis of C6H5XCY3 Species (X = SO or SO2, Y = H or F)

The potential functions of internal rotation about the C² _sp—S bonds for C₆H₅XCY₃ species (X = SO or SO₂, Y = H or F) have been obtained at the MP2 (full)/6-31+G(d) level of ab initio theory. It is found that the spatial structures with the plane of C² _sp—S—C³ _sp bonds, which is near perpendicular to the benzene ring plane, are the energy-favourable conformations. The values of the rotational barrier about the C² _sp—S bond are equal to (kJ/mole): 21.2 (C₆H₅SOCH₃), 29.0 (C₆H₅SOCF₃), 20.4 (C₆H₅SO₂CH₃), and 28.2 (C₆H₅SO₂CF₃). On the basis of the Natural Bond Orbital (NBO) analysis results, it has been revealed that the double S=O bond is a strongly polarized covalent -bond, whereas -bond electrons practically are localized on the oxygen atom. The S=O bond order for aromatic sulfoxides and sulphones is mainly caused by hyperconjugational interactions according to the LP(O) ^*(S—C_ipso) and LP(O) ^*(S—C _Y ) mechanisms. In sulphones there is also the additional mechanism of hyperconjugational interactions such as LP(O^{1 *}(S—O²) and LP(O²) ^*(S—O¹). With the replacement of one hydrogen atom on the —XCY₃ group, the charge loss of the unsubstituted benzene molecule increases: —SOCH₃ < —SO₂CH₃ < — SOCF₃ < —SO₂CF₃. The substitution of the —CH₃ group for the —CF₃ group weakly influences the charge value on the sulfur atom but effects the acceptor characteristics of the substituent to a greater extent than the variation of the sulfur atom coordination.     

Magnetische Untersuchungen an Komplexen von La(III), Pr(III) und Nd(III) mitSchiffschen Basen

Specific magnetic susceptibilities (_s) of several newly synthesized chelates of some of the lanthanons [La(III), Pr(III) and Nd(III)] are reported. These derivatives are of the general type,Ln(O-i-C₃H₇)_3–n (C₆H₅CHNRO) _n [where,Ln=La(III), Pr(III) or Nd(III);n=1 or 2 and R=CH₂CH₂, CH₂CHCH₃ or C₆H₄] and have been prepared by the reaction of the alkoxides of the lanthanons withSchiff bases such as benzylidene-2-hydroxyethylamine (C₆H₅CHNCH₂CH₂OH), benzylidene-2-hydroxy-n-propylamine (C₆H₅CHNCH₂CHOHCH₃) and benzylidene-o-aminophenol (C₆H₅CHNC₆H₄OH) in different molar relations in dry benzene.The resulting crystalline derivatives are non-volatile, light to deep yellow or blackish in colour. These tend to polymerize on keeping as shown by their insoluble nature and higher melting points, the polymerisation possibly occurring by the intermolecular coordination through oxygen atoms as reported earlier¹.UsingGouy method², the bis-isopropoxy mono-Schiff base and mono-isopropoxy bis-Schiff base complexes of La(III) have been shown to be diamagnetic, with _s values being in the range of –0.32 to –0.45×10^–6 and –0.39 to –0.55×10^–6 c.g.s. units at 305 K respectively.In the remaining derivatives, Pr(O-i-C₃H₇)_3–n (C₆H₅CH NRO) _n and Nd(O-i-C₃H₇)_3–n (C₆H₅CHNRO) _n (where,n=1 or 2 and R=CH₂CH₂, CH₂CHCH₃ or C₆H₄) the magnetic moment values range between 3.25 to 3.32 and 3.30 to 3.33 _B respectively indicating their paramagnetic nature.

Schiff base complexes of dioxouranium(VI), III. Commun.: Dioxouranium(VI) complexes of bibasic tetradentateSchiff bases

Bibasic tetradentateSchiff bases having the donor system OH–NX–NX–OH have been shown to form UO₂(NO₃)₂(SBH₂) type of derivatives [SBH₂ is the molecule of the bibasic tetradentateSchiff bases such as HOC₆H₄C(R) N(CH₂) _n NC(R)C₆H₄OH (where R=H or CH₃ andn=2 or 3) and HOC(R)CHC(CH₃)N(CH₂) _n NC(CH₃)CH C(R)OH (where R=CH₃ or C₆H₅ andn=2 or 3)]. The 11 stoichiometry of these complexes is shown by elemental analysis and conductometric titrations. The molar conductence values in nitrobenzene indicate the non-electrolytic behaviour and the magnetic susceptibility measurements by the Gouy method show these complexes to be diamagnetic.With 1 Figure     

Protonation and acylation of the heterometallic complexes (μ-H)Os3(μ-O2CC5H4FeCp)(CO)10 and Fe{(μ-O2CC5H4)(μ-H)Os3(CO)10}2

The reactions of the heterometallic complexes (-H)Os₃(-O₂CC₅H₄FeCp)(CO)₁₀ (1) and Fe{(-O₂CC₅H₄)(-H)Os₃(CO)₁₀}₂ (2) with CF₃COOH, CF₃SO₃H, and AcCl were studied. The reaction of 1 with CF₃COOH involves interaction with the Cp ligands, protonation of the O atom of the bridging carboxylate group, and oxidative degradation of the complex. At low concentrations, CF₃SO₃H protonates the O atom of the bridging carboxylate group, while at high concentrations, degradation of the complex takes place. The reaction of complex 2with either CF₃COOH or low concentrations of CF₃SO₃H results in successive elimination of two [(-H)Os₃(CO)₁₀] cluster fragments due to protonation of the O atoms of the carboxylate groups. In the case of high CF₃SO₃H concentrations, the Os—Os bonds of both cluster fragments of 2 are also protonated to give the [Fe{(-O₂CC₅H₄)(-H)₂Os₃(CO)₁₀}₂]²⁺ dication. The Friedel—Crafts acylation of 1 takes place only when a large excess of AcCl and AlCl₃ is used to give two new complexes, (-H)Os₃(-O₂CC₅H₄FeC₅H₄C(O)CH₃)(CO)₁₀ and (-H)Os₃(-O₂CC₅H₃C(O)CH₃FeCp)(CO)₁₀ in a 2 : 1 ratio.     

A study of the photochemistry and thermal chemistry of Ru3(CO)9(PR3)3{R = Ph,OMe} with two-electron donor ligands

The photochemistry of the tris-substituted clusters Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃ (R=Ph or OMe) with no added ligands, with CO, C₂H₄, alkynes and H₂ is compared and contrasted with results obtained for analogous thermal reactions. Photolysis of a CH₂Cl₂ solution of Ru₃(CO)₉(PPh₃)₃ leads to the metallated complex HRu₃(CO)₈(PPh₃)₂(PPh₂C₆H₄). In CCl₄, Ru(CO)₃(PR₃)Cl₂ is formed on photolysis of Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃. Photolysis of CO saturated solutions of Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃ leads to Ru(CO)₄(PR₃). C₂H₄ saturated solutions of Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃ generate the novel Ru(CO)₃(PR₃)(²-C₂H₄) complexes upon photolysis. With C₂H₂, photolysis of solutions of Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃ leads to the novel complexes Ru(CO)₃(PR₃)(²-C₂H₂). Substituted alkyne complexes have been prepared. Thermolysis of Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃ with HCCPh leads to the novel acetylide clusters HRu₃(CO)₆(PR₃)₃(₃-²-C₂Ph). With PhC CPh, only Ru₃(CO)₉{P(OMe)₃}₃ reacts, yielding the novel alkyne cluster Ru₃(CO)₆{P(OMe)₃}₃(₃-²-C₂Ph₂). With H₂, photolysis of CH₂Cl₂ solutions of Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃ leads to H₂Ru(CO)₂(PR₃)₂. Irradiating a 4:1 CH₂Cl₂ to EtOAc solution of Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃ under an atmosphere of H₂ leads to the novel dihydrido species H₂Ru₃(CO)₇(PR₃)₃. Thermolysis of H₂ saturated solutions of Ru₃(CO)₉(PR₃)₃ leads to H₄Ru₄(CO)₈(PR₃)₄.

Solvent and Temperature Dependence of 59Co NMR Chemical Shifts of Tris(acetylacetonato)cobaIt(III) and Tris(dipivaloylmethanato)cobalt(III)

Cobalt-59 NMR chemical shifts of Co(acac)₃, and Co(dpm)₃ (acac^– = acetylacetonate ion and dpm^– = dipivaloylmethanate ion) in 14 organic solvents, C₆H₁₄, C₆H₆, CH₂Cl₂, CHCl₃, CCl₄, CH₃CN, CH₃OH, C₂H₅OH, CH₃CH(OH)CH₃, (C₂H₅)₂O, (CH₃)₂CO, (CH₃)₂SO, (CH₃)₂NCHO and C₆H₅NO₂, were measured at five temperatures ranging from 289 to 329 K. The observed chemical shift (_obs) was linearly correlated to the maximum absorption wavelength in the visible spectra (_max) corresponding to the d-d electronic transition energy between the ground ¹A_1g and excited ¹T_1g states. The _obs-_max relation was explained by the ligand field theory. The temperature coefficients of _obs, of each complex showed a negative correlation with _obs. The _obs, of Co(acac)₃ decreased with the increasing electrophilic ability of the solvent (Mayer's acceptor number), whereas no tendency was observed in the case of Co(dpm)₃.     

Thermoanalytical behaviour of some dicarboxylato-α-diiminecobalt(III) complexes

The complexes cis-Co[(AA)₂(OCOR)₂]NO₃, where AA=1,10-phenanthroline or 2,2-bipyridine and R=H, CH₃, C₂H₅, or n-C₃H₇ were studied by TG, DTA and spectroscopic methods to obtain information concerning the decomposition mechanism. A comparison of the two series revealed that the first decomposition process involves breaking of Co-N bonds and elimination of the nitrogen ligand in both series; the phenanthroline complexes show a stability sequence, whereas all the bipyridine complexes start to decompose at the same temperature. The results were also compared with previous data on ethylenediamine complexes.

Zusammenfassung Zur Ermittlung von Informationen über den Zersetzungsmechanismus wurde mittels TG-, DTA- und spektroskopischen Methoden cis-Co[(AA)₂ (OCOR)₂]NO₃ untersucht, wobei AA=1,10-Phenanthrolin oder 2,2-Bipyridin sowie R=H, CH₃, C₂H₅ oder n-C₃H₇ ist. Ein Vergleich beider Verbindungsreihen ergab, dass der erste Schritt der Zersetzung in der Spaltung der Co-N-Bindung und der Abspaltung des Stickstoffliganden besteht; Phenanthrolinkomplexe zeigen eine gewisse Stabilitätsreihenfolge, während alle Bipyridinkomplexe ihre Zersetzung bei der gleichen Temperature beginnen. Die erhaltenen Ergebnisse wurden weiterhin mit früheren Untersuchungsergebnissen über Ethylendiaminkomplexe verglichen.
