All compounds were studied by X‐ray diffraction analyses. The cations of 3 are all disordered but not those of 1 and 2 . The unit cell of 1 contains two crystallographically independent anions (I and II) which differ in the dihedral angle between the plane of the carbamoyl ligand and the plane defined by the atoms C_Carbamoyl–Ni–CO amounting 0° in the anion I and 18° in the anion II.     

Darstellung,Kristallstruktur und quantenchemische Berechnung von [C(NMe2)3]2[(CO)4FeInCl3]

Preparation, Structure, and Quantum Chemical Calculation of [C(NMe₂)₃]₂[(CO)₄FeInCl₃] The title compound ( 1 ) has been obtained as colorless crystals by reacting InCl₃ with [C(NMe₂)₃][(CO)₄FeC(O)NMe₂] in THF solution. The crystal structure determination (monoclinic, C2/c) shows the presence of separate ions with one disordered and one non disordered cation. In the dianion the CO groups of the trigonal bipyramidal coordinated iron atom and the Cl atoms of the tetrahedral coordinated indium atom form a staggered conformation with a relatively short In–Fe bond distance of 252 pm. Quantum Chemical DFT calculations of [CO)₄FeInCl₃]^2– show that the Fe–In bond has a strong ionic character and that it should be considered as an adduct of [Fe(CO)₄]^2– and InCl₃.     

The Reaction of [C(NMe2)3][(CO)4FeC(O)NMe2] with InX3 (X = Br,I); Isolation and Crystal Structures of Unusual Addition and Oxidation Products

The reaction between the salt like iron carbamoyl complex [C(NMe₂)₃][(CO)₄FeC(O)NMe₂] ( 1 ) and InBr₃ proceeds with formation of an iron indium bond to give the salt [C(NMe₂)₃]₂[(CO)₄FeInBr₃] ( 2 ). InI₃, however, acts as an oxidation agent to produce with 1 the intercalation compound [FeI₂]₂ · [MeN=C(NMe₂)₂] ( 3 ) as main product. Minor amounts of the penta‐metallic neutral complex [{(CO)₃Fe(μ‐C(NMe₂)O)₂Fe(CO)₂C(NMe₂)O}₂Fe] ( 4 ) and the indium containing salt [C(NMe₂)₃][(CO)₄Fe(μ‐InI₂)₂NMe₂] ( 5 ) were also isolated and characterized by X‐ray analyses.

The nickel atoms are associated via μ₃‐N bridges of the (NPMe₃^–) groups to form a heterocubane. The triflate ions are bonded to the Ni atoms in a chelate fashion. Blue single crystals of [Ni₄Br₅{NP(NMe₂)₃}₃] ( 2 ) are obtained by the reaction of NiBr₂ with Me₃SiNP(NMe₂)₃ in boiling toluene in the presence of sodium fluoride. The Ni atoms in 2 are associated with three μ₃‐bridged nitrogen atoms of the (NP(NMe₂)₃^–) groups as well as by a μ₃‐Br atom to give a distorted heterocubane.

Treatment of 1a with [Cu(L)Cl] (L = PiPr₃; SbiPr₃) leads to the formation of compounds [CuCl(L){P(tBu)C(NMe₂)₂}] ( 4a ) (L = PiPr₃) and ( 4b ) (L = SbiPr₃), respectively. Reaction of [(MeCN)₄Cu]BF₄ with two equivalents of PhP=C(NMe₂)₂ ( 1b ) yields complex [Cu{P(Ph)C(NMe₂)₂}₂]BF₄ ( 5b ). Similarly, compounds [Cu{P(Aryl)C(NMe₂)₂}₂]BF₄ ( 5c (Aryl = Mes and 5d (Aryl = Mes*)) are obtained from ArylP=C(NMe₂)₂ ( 1c : Aryl = Mes; 1d : Mes*) and [(MeCN)₄Cu]BF₄ in the presence of SbiPr₃.

Synthese,Struktur und Reaktivität des Ferrioarsaalkens [(η5‐C5Me5)(CO)2FeAs=C(Ph)NMe2]

Synthesis, Structure, and Reactivity of the Ferrioarsaalkene [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs=C(Ph)NMe₂] Reaction of equimolar amounts of the carbenium iodide [Me₂N(Ph)CSMe]I and LiAs(SiMe₃)₂ · 1.5 THF afforded the thermolabile arsaalkene Me₃SiAs = C(Ph)NMe₂ ( 1 ), which in situ was converted into the black crystalline ferrioarsaalkene [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs=C(Ph)NMe₂)] ( 2 ) by treatment with [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeCl]. Compound 2 was protonated by ethereal HBF₄ to yield [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs(H)C(Ph)NMe₂]BF₄ ( 3 ) and methylated by CF₃SO₃Me to give [(η⁵‐C₅Me₅)(CO)₂FeAs(Me)C(Ph)NMe₂]‐ SO₃CF₃ ( 4 ).

Zur Umsetzung von Kupfer(I)‐ und Kupfer(II)‐Salzen mit P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)3 ‐ die Festkörperstrukturen von {[P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)3]CuOClO3}ClO4, {[P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)3]Cu}ClO4, [P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)3]CuONO2 und [P(C6H4CH2NMe2‐2)2(C6H4CH2NMe2H+NO3‐‐2)]CuONO2

Reaction Behaviour of Copper(I) and Copper(II) Salts Towards P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ ‐ the Solid‐State Structures of {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuOClO₃}ClO₄, {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]Cu}ClO₄, [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuONO₂ and [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₂(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂H⁺NO₃^‐‐2)]CuONO₂ The reaction behaviour of P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃ ( 1 ) towards different copper(II) and copper(I) salts of the type CuX₂ ( 2a : X = BF₄, 2b : X = PF₆, 2c : X = ClO₄, 2d : X = NO₃, 2e : X = Cl, 2f : X = Br, 13 : X = O₂CMe) and CuX ( 5a : X = ClO₄, 5b : X = NO₃, 5c : X = Cl, 5d : X = Br) is discussed. Depending on X, the transition metal complexes [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃Cu]X₂ ( 3a : X = BF₄, 3b : X = PF₆), {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuX}X ( 4 : X = ClO₄, 11a : X = Cl, 11b : X = Br, 14 : X = O₂CMe), {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]Cu}ClO₄ ( 6 ), [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuX ( 7a : X = Cl, 7b : X = Br, 10 : X = ONO₂), [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₂(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂H⁺NO₃^‐‐2)]CuONO₂ ( 9 ) and [P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuCl}CuCl₂ ( 12 ) are accessible. While in 3a , 3b and 6 the phosphane 1 preferentially acts as tetrapodale ligand, in all other species only the phosphorus atom and two of the three C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂ side‐arms are datively‐bound to the appropriate copper ion. In solution a dynamic behaviour of the latter species is observed. Due to the coordination ability of X in 3a , 3b and 6 non‐coordinating anions X^‐ are present. However, in 4 one of the two perchlorate ions forms a dative oxygen‐copper bond and the second perchlorate ion acts as counter ion to {[P(C₆H₄CH₂NMe₂‐2)₃]CuOClO₃}⁺. In 7 , 9 and 10 the fragments X (X = Cl, Br, ONO₂) form a σ‐bond with the copper(I) ion. The acetate moiety in 14 acts as chelating ligand as it could be shown by IR‐spectroscopic studies. All newly synthesised cationic and neutral copper(I) and copper(II) complexes are representing stable species. Redox processes are involved in the formation of 9 and 12 by reacting 1 with 2 . The solid‐state structures of 4 , 6 , 9 and 10 are reported. In the latter complexes the copper(II) ( 4 ) or copper(I) ion ( 6 , 9 , 10 ) possesses the coordination number 4. This is achieved by the formation of a phosphorus‐ and two nitrogen‐copper‐ ( 4 , 9 , 10 ) or three ( 6 ) nitrogen‐copper dative bonds and a coordinating ( 4 ) or σ‐binding ( 9 , 10 ) ligand X. In 6 all three nitrogen and the phosphorus atoms are coordinatively bound to copper, while X acts as non‐coordinating counter‐ion. Based on this, the respective copper ion occupies a distorted tetrahedral coordination sphere. While in 4 and 10 a free, neutral Me₂NCH₂ side‐arm is present, which rapidly exchanges in solution with the coordinatively‐bound Me₂NCH₂ fragments, this unit is protonated in 10 . NO₃^‐ acts as counter ion to the CH₂NMe₂H⁺ moiety. In all structural characterized complexes 6‐membered boat‐like CuPNC₃ cycles are present.

Phosphaniminato‐Cluster von Eisen. Die Kristallstrukturen von [FeCl(NPEt3)]4, [Fe(C=C–SiMe3)(NPEt3)]4 und [Fe3Cl4{NP(NMe2)3}3]

Phosphoraneiminato Cluster of Iron. The Crystal Structures of [FeCl(NPEt₃)]₄, [Fe(C=C–SiMe₃)(NPEt₃)]₄, and [Fe₃Cl₄{NP(NMe₂)₃}₃] The reaction of iron dichloride with the silylated phosphaneimine Me₃SiNPEt₃ in the presence of potassium fluoride at 165 ?C leads to the phosphoraneiminato complex [FeCl(NPEt₃)]₄ ( 1 ). Compound 1 forms black, moisture and oxygen sensitive crystals. According to the crystal structure analysis 1 has a heterocubane structure, in which the iron and the nitrogen atoms of the NPEt₃^– groups occupy the corners of a distorted cube and form Fe–N–Fe bond angles of 83.1? and N–Fe–N angles of 96.5?. This results in significantly short Fe…Fe contacts of 272.9 pm. The results of magnetic susceptibility measurements in the range of temperatures from 1.8 to 293 K and the ⁵⁷Fe‐Mössbauer spectra in the range of temperatures from 2 to 300 K are reported. Compound 1 reacts with the lithiated acetylenes LiC=C–CMe₃ and LiC=C–SiMe₃ in n‐hexane to form the iron‐organic derivatives [Fe(C=C–R)(NPEt₃)]₄ [R = CMe₃ ( 2 a ), R = SiMe₃ ( 2 b )] keeping the heterocubane structure. Compounds 2 a and 2 b form crystals which are very reactive and also black. According to the crystal structure analysis 2 b has a Fe₄N₄ heterocubane structure which is less distorted than that in 1 with bond angles Fe–N–Fe of 85.5? and N–Fe–N of 94.2?. This leads to the longer Fe…Fe contacts of 281.4 pm. With the dimethylamido derivative Me₃SiNP(NMe₂)₃ iron dichloride reacts under conditions similar to those in the synthesis of 1 to form the dark green mixed‐valenced Fe^II/Fe^III cluster [Fe₃Cl₄{NP(NMe₂)₃}₃] ( 3 ). According to the crystal structure analysis the three iron atoms in 3 are connected via one μ₃‐N atom of a NP(NMe₂)₃^– ligand, via two μ‐N atoms of the two remaining phosphoraneiminato ligands, and via one μ‐Cl atom to form an incomplete heterocubane skeleton.

M = Re; X = Cl, Br, I) are prepared by reaction of SnX₂ with M₂(CO)₈[P(C₆H₅)₃]₂ (M = Mn, Re). Their IR frequencies are assigned. In Re₂(CO)₈[μ-Sn(Cl)Re(CO)₄P(C₆H₅)₃]₂ the central molecule fragment contains a planar Re₂Sn₂ rhombus with a transannular Re? Re bond of 316.0(2) pm. Each of the Sn^IV atoms is connected with the terminal ligands Cl and Re(CO)₄P(C₆H₅)₃. These ligands are in transposition with respect to the Re₂Sn₂ ring. The mean values for the remaining bond distances (pm) are: Sn? Re = 274.0(3); Sn? Cl = 243(1), Re? C = 176(5), Re? P = 242.4(9), C? O = 123(5). The factors with an influence on the geometrical shape of such M₂Sn₂ rings (M = transition metal) are discussed.

While 1 and 2 are reduced by LiPH(2,4,6-BuC₆H₂) to the Mo(III) complexes [Cp⁰Mo(μ? Cl)₂]₂ 3 and [Cp′Mo(μ? Cl)₂]₂ 4 , the reaction of 1 with KPPh₂(dioxane)₂ yields the reduction/substitution product [CpMo₂(μ? Cl)₃(μ? PPh)] 5 in low yield. 1 – 4 were characterized spectroscopically (i.r., mass, 3 and 4 also n.m.r.). An X-ray crystal structure determination was carried out on 3 and 5. 3 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (No. 2) with a = 8.278(4), b = 12.508(7), c = 12.826(7) Å, α = 86.78(5), β = 81.55(2), γ = 75.65(4)°, V = 1 272.4 ų and two formula units in the unit cell (data collection at ? 67°C, 4 255 independent observed reflections, R = 2.9%); 5 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (No. 2) with a = 11.536(8), b = 12.307(9), c = 13.157(9) Å, α = 91.41(6), β = 100.42(5), γ = 112.26(6)°, V = 1 688.7 ų and two formula units in the unit cell (data collection at ? 60°C, 6 147 independent observed reflections, R = 4.9%). The crystal structure of 3 shows the presence of centrosymmetric dimeric molecules with four bridging chloro ligands. In 5, two Mo atoms are bridged by three chloro ligands and one PPh₂ ligand. The Mo? Mo bond length in 3 and 5 (2.600(2), 2.596(2) Å and 2.6388(8) Å) is in agreement with a Mo? Mo bond.

Thermal decomposition of 5 gives [CF₃S(NMe₂)₂]⁺ [HF₂]^‐ ( 6 ). Reaction pathways are discussed, the structures of 5 ‐ 7 are reported.     

Syntheses and X‐Ray Structures of μ‐Carbamoyl Complexes of Iron; Isomers of [(CO)3Fe(μ‐Me2NCO)2Fe(CO)2(NHMe2)] with Symmetrical and Asymmetrical Intramolecular NH···O Contacts

Reaction of the carbamoyl complex [C(NMe₂)₃][(CO)₄FeC(O)NMe₂] ( 1 ) with silver salts gives the dinuclear μ‐carbamoyl complex [(CO)₃Fe(μ‐Me₂NCO)₂Fe(CO)₂(HNMe₂)] ( 2 ). Depending on the solvent, crystals of 2a with an asymmetrical or of 2b with a symmetrical internal NH···O bridge are formed. The dimethylamino group is originated from a further molecule of 1 from which an amino group is transferred to the “α‐CO” ligand of an intermediate oxidation product while the H⁺ ion probably comes from deprotonation of a guanidinium cation. The HNMe₂ ligand cannot be replaced by CO but easily by PPh₃ to give [(CO)₃Fe(μ‐Me₂NCO)₂Fe(CO)₂(PPh₃)] ( 3 ). All complexes were studied by X‐ray diffraction analyses and the usual spectroscopic methods.     

Oxo-Phosphaniminato-Komplexe von Molybdän und Wolfram. Die Kristallstrukturen von [Mo(O)2(NPPh3)2] und [WO(NPPh3)3]2[W6O19]

Oxo-phosphoraneiminato Complexes of Molybdenum and Tungsten. Crystal Structures of [Mo(O)₂(NPPh₃)₂] and [WO(NPPh₃)₃]₂[W₆O₁₉] The dioxo-phosphoraneiminato complexes [Mo(O)₂(NPPh₃)₂] ( 1 ) and [W(O)₂(NPPh₃)₂] ( 2 ) originate from hydrolysis of the nitrido complexes [MN(NPPh₃)₃] (M = Mo, W). They form colourless crystals, which are characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as by mass spectrometry. According to the crystal structure analysis of 1 (space group Fdd2, Z = 8; lattice dimensions at –83 °C: a = 1953.3(1), b = 3275.8(3), c = 953.4(1) pm) there are monomeric molecules with tetrahedrally coordinated molybdenum atoms. The distances MoO of 171.2 pm and MoN of 185.9 pm correspond to double bonds. In dichloromethane solution 2 undergoes further hydrolysis with colourless crystals of [WO(NPPh₃)₃]₂[W₆O₁₉] ( 3 ) originating, which are characterized crystallographically (space group Pbcn, Z = 4; lattice dimensions at –50 °C: a = 3225.1(6), b = 1803.6(3), c = 1811.9(3) pm). 3 consists of cations [WO(NPPh₃)₃]⁺ with tetrahedrally coordinated tungsten atoms and of the known [W₆O₁₉]^2– anions. The tungsten atoms of the cations show distances WO of 171.8 pm and WN of 182 pm which correspond to double bonds as in 1 .
