Family of mixed-valence oxovanadium(IV/V) dinuclear entities incorporating N4O3-coordinating heptadentate ligands: synthesis, structure, and EPR spectra

Dinuclear (V(IV)V(V)) oxophenoxovanadates of general formula [V2O3L] have been synthesized in excellent yields by reacting bis(acetylacetonato)oxovanadium(IV) with H3L in a 2:1 ratio in acetone under an N2 atmosphere. Here L3- is the deprotonated form of 2,6-bis[{{(2-hydroxybenzyl)(N',N'-(dimethylamino)ethyl)}amino}methyl]-4-methylphenol (H3L1), 2,6-bis[{{(5-methyl-2-hydroxybenzyl)(N',N'-(dimethylamino)ethyl)}amino}methyl]-4-methylphenol (H3L2), 2,6-bis[{{(5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzyl)(N',N'-(dimethylamino)ethyl)}amino}methyl]-4-methylphenol (H3L3), 2,6-bis[{{(5-chloro-2-hydroxybenzyl)(N',N'-(dimethylamino)ethyl)}amino}methyl]-4-methylphenol(H3L4), 2,6-bis[{{(5-bromo-2-hydroxybenzyl)(N'N'-(dimethylamino)ethyl)}amino}methyl]-4-methylphenol (H3L5), or 2,6-bis[{{(5-methoxy-2-hydroxybenzyl)(N'N'-(dimethylamino)ethyl)}methyl]-4-methylphenol (H3L6). In [V2O3L1], both the metal atoms have distorted octahedral geometry. The relative disposition of two terminal V=O groups in the complex is essentially cis. The O=V...V=O torsion angle is 24.6(2) degrees . The V-O(oxo)-V and V-O(phenoxo)-V angles are 117.5(4) and 93.4(3) degrees , respectively. The V...V bond distance is 3.173(5) A. X-ray crystallography, IR, UV-vis, and 1H and 51V NMR measurements show that the mixed-valence complexes contain two indistinguishable vanadium atoms (type III). The thermal ellipsoids of O2, O4, C10, C14, and C15 also suggests a type III complex in the solid state. EPR spectra of solid complexes at 77 K display a single line indicating the localization of the odd electron (3d(xy)1). Valence localization at 77 K is also consistent with the 51V hyperfine structure of the axial EPR spectra (3d(xy)1 ground state) of the complexes in frozen (77 K) dichloromethane solution: S = 1/2, g(parallel) approximately 1.94, g(perpendicular) approximately 1.98, A(parallel) approximately 166 x 10(-4) cm(-1), and A(perpendicular) approximately 68 x 10(-4) cm(-1). In contrast isotropic room-temperature solution spectra of the family have 15 hyperfine lines (g(iso) approximately 1.974 and A(iso) approximately 50 x 10(-4) cm(-1)) revealing that the unpaired electron is delocalized between the metal centers. Crystal data for the [V2O3L1].CH2Cl2 complex are as follows: chemical formula, C32H43O6N4Cl2V2; crystal system, monoclinic; space group, C2/c; a = 18.461(4), b = 17.230(3), c = 13.700(3) A; beta = 117.88(3) degrees ; Z = 8.     

RhCl3-assisted C-H and C-S bond scissions: isomeric self-association of organorhodium(iii) thiolato complex. synthesis, structure, and electrochemistry

The ligating properties of alkyl 2-(phenylazo)phenyl thioether 1 (HL(R); R = Me, CH(2)Ph) toward Rh(III) have been examined. A novel hexacoordinated orthometalated rhodium(III) thiolato complex trans-[Rh(L)Cl(PPh3)2] 5 has been synthesized from 1 and RhCl(3).3H(2)O in the presence of excess PPh(3) via in situ C(sp(2))-H and C(sp(3))-S bond scissions, which is the first example for a coordination compound of [L](2-). We were also able to isolate the intermediate organothioether rhodium(III) compound trans-[Rh(L(R))Cl(2)(PPh(3))] 6 with 1 equiv of PPh(3) relative to both 1 and RhCl(3).3H2O in the course of the synthesis of the S-dealkylated product. PPh(3) plays a crucial role in the C(sp(3))-S cleavage process. A plausible mechanistic pathway is presented for C-S bond cleavage, and reductive cleavage by single-electron transfer mechanism is likely to be operative. The electronically and coordinatively saturated thiolato complex 5, indefinitely stable in the solid state, undergoes spontaneous self-dimerization in solution via dissociation of one coordinated PPh3 molecule to afford edge-shared bioctahedral anti-[Rh(L)Cl(PPh(3))]2 7 and syn-[Rh(L)Cl(PPh(3))]2 8 isomers. All the synthesized organosulfur rhodium(III) compounds were isolated as both air- and moisture-stable solids and spectroscopically characterized in both solution and solid states. In addition, all the representative members have been authenticated by single-crystal X-ray structure analyses. Availability of the isomeric dimers provides an opportunity to recognize the presence of noncovalent intramolecular "metallochelate-metallochelate" interaction in the sterically encumbered syn isomer. Unlike other organosulfur rhodium complexes, the monomeric thiolato complex 5 exhibits a fully reversible oxidative wave at 0.82 V vs Ag/AgCl, which is supposed to be primarily centered on the thiolato sulfur atom, and such perception is consistent with the DFT study. Formation of rhodium-bound thiyl radical cation 5(*+) by electrochemical oxidation was scrutinized by EPR spectroscopy.     

1-(2′-Pyridylazo)-2-naphtholate (PAN) complexes of rhodium(III): Synthesis,structure and spectral studies

The ligating properties 1-(2′-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (HPAN) toward Rh(III) have been examined. The reaction of RhCl₃·3H₂O with HPAN in presence of excess PPh₃ afforded trans-[Rh(PAN)Cl(PPh₃)₂]PF₆ (3PF₆). Intermediate cis-[Rh(PAN)Cl₂(PPh₃)] (4) has also been isolated. Solid state structures were authenticated by X-ray analyses revealing that monoanionic PAN is coordinated to rhodium in meridional fashion. Both the compounds were spectroscopically characterized in both solution and solid states, which include IR, NMR (¹H and ³¹P), and optical spectra. The diamagnetic complexes show multiple CT transitions in the visible region. Low-energy transitions (λ ≈ 550–650 nm) occurred in the absorption spectra are predominantly ligand centered in nature. The rhodium(III)–PAN compounds are red emissive (λ_em ≈ 650 nm) at room temperature and the nature of the emission level is probably an ILCT level. Complexes are electro-active in acetonitrile and display irreversible oxidative and reductive waves and these responses are ascribed to be PAN ligand centered in character.
