Synthesis and Structural Features of Copper(I) Chloride and Bromide Complexes with the N,N,N′,N′-Tetraallylpiperasinium Cation (L2+) of Compositions L2+[CuCl2]– 2 and L2+[CuBr3]2–

Crystals of the -complex [C₄H₈N₂(C₃H₅)₄]²⁺[CuCl₂]^– ₂ (I) were prepared by ac electrochemical synthesis from copper and N,N,N,N-tetraallylpiperasinium chlorides in alcohol solution. Similar synthesis with the use of the metal and N,N,N,N-tetraallylpiperasinium bromides yielded the complex [C₄H₈N₂(C₃H₅)₄]²⁺[CuBr₃]^2– (II). Structures I and II were studied by X-ray diffraction (DARCh automated single-crystal diffractometer, MoK radiation). Crystals of I are triclinic, space group P1¯, a = 8.650(3) Å, b = 7.572(2) Å, c = 8.095(3) Å, = 100.45(2)°, = 83.91(2)°, = 99.89(2)°, V = 512.1(6) ų, Z = 1. Crystals of II are orthorhombic, space group Pn2₁ a, a = 17.673(3) Å, b = 14.369(6) Å, c = 8.244(2) Å, V = 2093(2) ų, Z = 4. In structure I, the potentially tetradentate N,N,N,N-tetraallylpiperasinium cation uses two centrosymmetric allyl groups for bonding with copper atoms, whose environment is completed to the trigonal-planar coordination with the chlorine atoms. The [C₄H₈N₂(C₃H₅)₄]²⁺[CuCl₂]^– ₂ groups are joined into a three-dimensional framework by weak hydrogen bonds. The inorganic fragment CuCl^– ₂ is partially disordered, which appears as splitting of the positions of the copper atom and one of the chlorine atom. In compound II, the inorganic fragment occurs as an unusual trigonal-planar CuBr^2– ₃ anion; the N,N,N,N-tetraallylpiperasinium cation is not involved in metal coordination.

In the crystals of1 and3, two -cyclodextrin molecules are arranged head-to-head to form a dimer by means of intermolecular hydrogen bonding across the secondary hydroxyl faces of adjacent -CD monomers. The dimers are stacked along the crystallographicc axis to form a channel-type structure. The metallocenium cation is encapsulated within the cavity of the dimer, while the PF ₆ ^– anion is located outside the cavity, being centered between the primary hydroxyl faces of adjacent dimers. Eight water molecules of hydration per asymmetric unit reside in the spaces between the -CD columns. In view of the almost identical crystal data for2 a similar structure can be assumed for the cobaltocenium adduct.

In the latter case, two independent metal atoms have trigonal–pyramidal and trigonal–planar environments. In the structures of both compounds, the C=C bond of the allyl group is not involved in coordination with the Cu(I) atom.

An Asymmetric Edge-Sharing Bioctahedral Complex: (η2-DAniF)MoIII(μ-DAniF)2(μ-O,Cl)MoVCl2 (DAniF=N,N′-di-p-anisylformamidinate)

A novel asymmetric, edge-sharing bioctahedral complex with formamidinato ligands ( ²-DAniF)Mo(-DAniF)₂(-O,Cl)MoCl₂, 1, (DAniF=N,N-di-p-anisylformamidinate) has been isolated as a byproduct from the preparation of the dimolybdenum(II,III) compound Mo₂(DAniF)₃Cl₂. An X-ray crystallographic study shows that the structure consists of edge-sharing bioctahedra, with the shared edge defined by the vector joining the: -O and -Cl ligands. Compound 1 is best formulated as a mixed-valent Mo^IIIMo^V compound, the Mo(V) ion being that with the two terminal Cl^– ligands. The cyclic voltammogram of 1 shows a reversible reduction at –0.472 V and a reversible oxidation at 1.028 V vs. the Ag/AgCl reference electrode, while the absorption spectrum of 1 reveals an intense low energy absorption at 523 nm ( _max=12 500) which is attributed to an intervalence charge transfer transition. Crystallographic data for 1 are as follows: a=13.387(1) Å, b=15.500(2) Å, c=21.855(2) Å, =98.786(2)°, V=4481.8(8) ų, P2₁/c, R1 (wR2)=0.082 (0.177).

The structure of I is composed of Cu^IICl₄ ^2– tetrahedra and N-allylisoquinolinium cations united by C–H···Cl hydrogen bonds in corrugated layers. The crystal structures of -complexesII and III are built of [C₉H₇(C₃H₅)]₂Cu₂ ^IX₄ dimers, which form layers along the c axis due to the C–H···X hydrogen bonds. An important role in the structure formation is played by water molecules, which crosslink the organometallic layers to form a three-dimensional framework through the O–H···X contacts.

Summary 6,6,8,8-Tetramethyl-7-oxa-6,8-disila[3]ferrocenophane2 was obtained from the di(alkoxysilyl) ferrocene (H₄C₅SiMe₂OR)₂Fe (R=CH₂CH₂OCH₂CH₂OCH₂CH₂OMe) by hydrolysis and subsequent intramolecular disiloxane formation. 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,8,8-Dodecamethyl-7-oxa-6,8-disila-[3]ferrocenophane3 was formed by air oxidation of 2,23,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7-dodecamethyl-6,7-disila[2]ferrocenophane. The crystal structures of both compounds were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (2:a=8.5330(10),b=15.610(3),c=18.774(5)Å, =70.68(2), =77.94(2), =75.150(10)°,V=2259.8(8)ų,Z=6, space group P ,R=0.045,R _w =0.044;3:a=12.388(3),b=9.924(3),c=19.136(10)Å, =105.11(3)°,V=2271.2(15)ų,Z=4, space group P2₁/c,R=0.076,R _w =0.060). Owing to the flexibility of the disiloxane bridge,2 and3 are unstrained molecules.
