Oxorhenium(V) Complexes with Thiosemicarbazones

Neutral oxorhenium(V) complexes with thiosemicarbazones derived from 2‐pyridine formamide, HL¹, are formed when [ReOCl₃(PPh₃)₂] reacts with equimolar amounts of the ligands. Reduction of the metal and the formation of rhenium(III) complexes of the composition [Re(L¹)₂]⁺ occurs when an excess of thiosemicarbazones is used and the reaction is performed in boiling toluene for a prolonged period of time. The thiosemicarbazones deprotonate and act as tridentate ligands as has been confirmed by an X‐ray structure of [ReOCl₂(L^1b)], where HL^1b is 2‐pyridineformamide‐N(4)‐ethylthiosemicarbazone and the ligand occupies the equatorial coordination sphere of the complex together with one of the chloro ligands.     

Photochemical Reaction of Decacarbonyldirhenium with Thiophene and Crystal Structure of Tetradecacarbonylhydridotrirhenium

The photochemical reaction of Re₂(CO)₁₀ with thiophene in hexane solution was investigated under vacuum. Three rhenium clusters: H₂Re₃(CO)₁₂, HRe₃(CO)₁₄ and Re₃(CO)₁₄(OH)₄, were isolated. The structure of Fellmann-Kaesz cluster Complex HRe₃(CO)₁₄ was determined by use of the X-ray diffraction method. The three rhenium atoms form a plane of symmetry and L: Re₁Re₂Re₃ is 107°. The ten carbonyl groups bonded to the two terminal rhenium atoms Re₁ and Re₃, are staggered with respect to the central rhenium atoms. The bond lengths are 3.10 Å for Re₂-Re₃ and 3.34 Å for Re₁-Re₂. The bridging hydride is between Re₁ and Re₂.

Intramolecular cyclization of ketene containing both acyl andN-alkylimidoyl substituents. Synthesis and crystal and molecular structure of 3-benzoyl-5-phenyl-2H,4H-furo[3,2-c] isoquinolin-2-one

Thermal decarbonylation of 1-benzyl-4,5-dibenzoyl-2,3-dihydropyrrole-2,3-dione yields benzoyl[N-benzyl(phenylglyoxalimidoyl)]ketene. The latter undergoes intramolecular cyclization to 3-benzoyl-5-phenyl-2,3,4,5-tetrahydrofuro[3,2-c]isoquinolin-2-one. Which is oxidized to 3-benzoyl-5-phenyl-2H,4H-furo[3,2-c]isoquinolin-2-one under the reaction conditions. The crystal and molecular structure of the title compound was studied by X-ray structural analysis. Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

High-pressure synthesis of cyclic phenylacetylene oligomer

New conjugated oligomers were prepared by reacting phenylacetylene under high pressure of 0.11 to 0.92 GPa at 100–200°C for 0–5 h. The number-average molecular weight M?_n, the weight-average molecular weight M?_w, and the oligomer yield increased with pressure, tem-perature, and time. The average molecular weight of the oligomer showed the maximum value (M?_n: 830, M?_w: 2400) under 0.92 GPa, the maximum pressure, where phenylacetylene was oligomerized at a constant temperature. The structure of the oligomer was investigated from ESR, infrared, UV–VIS, field desorption mass (FDMS) spectra, and ¹³C NMR spec-trum. Analysis of the FDMS spectrum revealed that the molecular weight of the oligomer was multiple of the monomer. ¹³C NMR spectrum of the oligomer showed the absence of sp-carbon (? C?). We found that the oligomer had a cyclic structure. The cyclic oligomers of pentamer or more were new compounds. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Neue Alkalioxoarsenate(V): NaLi2[AsO4] — ein neuer Formeltyp [1]

New Alkali Oxoarsenates(V): NaLi₂[AsO₄] — A New Type of Formula [1] . By heating of well ground mixtures of the binary oxides As₂O₃, Na₂O, and Li₂O₂, molar ratio As:Na:Li = 1.0:1.0:2.0, in a well closed Ni tube (650°C, 21 d) colourless single crystals of NaLi₂[AsO₄] were obtained for the first time. The new orthoarsenate(V) crystallizes orthorhombic (space group P mn2₁-C, No. 31) with Z = 2. The structure determination showed that it is isostructural to β_II-Li₃[VO₄] and that means the Li₃[PO₄]-type. The lattice constants a = 702.9(2) pm, b = 520.5(1) pm, c = 505.4(2) pm were taken from Guinier-Simon powder data. The structure was determined by four-circle diffractometer data [Philips PW 1 100, AgKα , 679 independent out of 2 373 I_o(hkl), R = 3.03%, R_w = 2.29%; parameter see text]. The Madelung Part of Lattice Energy, MAPLE, and Effective Coordination Numbers, ECoN, these calculated via Mean Fictive Ionic Radii, MEFIR, are calculated and discussed.     

Grouped coordinate minimization using Newton's method for inexact minimization in one vector coordinate

Letf(x,y) be a function of the vector variablesx R ⁿ andy R ^m. The grouped (variable) coordinate minimization (GCM) method for minimizingf consists of alternating exact minimizations in either of the two vector variables, while holding the other fixed at the most recent value. This scheme is known to be locally,q-linearly convergent, and is most useful in certain types of statistical and pattern recognition problems where the necessary coordinate minimizers are available explicitly. In some important cases, the exact minimizer in one of the vector variables is not explicitly available, so that an iterative technique such as Newton's method must be employed. The main result proved here shows that a single iteration of Newton's method solves the coordinate minimization problem sufficiently well to preserve the overall rate of convergence of the GCM sequence.The authors are indebted to Professor R. A. Tapia for his help in improving this paper.     

Repleteness and regular lattice measures

Let X be an abstract set and L a lattice of subsets of X. To each lattice regular measure µ, we associate two induced measures and on suitable lattices of the Wallman space IR(L) and another measure µ on the spaceIR(L). We will investigate the reflection of smoothness properties of p onto , and µ; and try to set some new criterion for repleteness and measure repleteness.     

A novel asymmetrical phosphine tetracobalt complex ofo-Mercaptophenol: Synthesis,structure, and properties of Co4mp4(Hmp)(PBu 3 n )3 (H2mp=o-Mercaptophenol)

Complex Co₄mp₄(Hmp)(PBu ₃ ⁿ )₃ (1) (H₂mp=o-Mercaptophenol) was obtained from the reaction of CoCl₂ and H₂mp in the presence of PBu ⁿ ₃ and NaOMe with restricted oxidation. X-ray crystallographic data: triclinic, space group ,a=15.657(5) Å,b=20.469(8) Å,c=12.383(3) Å,=93.59(3)°, =112.45(2)°, =93.65(3)°,V=3648.7 ų,Z=2,D _c =1.33 g/cm³;R=0.065. The molecule consists of four cobalt atoms unsymmetrically bridged by S or S and O atoms from four of the five mp ligands. The fifth mp is terminally chelated to Co(4) which is in a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry, while Co(1)-Co(3) are square pyramidal. Atom Co(2) is bonded to Co(1) and Co(3) (average distance 2.632 Å) with strong interactions while Co(4) is only loosely connected to Co(1) (3.402 Å) and Co(3) (2.956 Å) through oxygen bridges and a hydrogen bond. The different coordination environments O₂S₂P, S₄P, and O₄S of the cobalt atoms make the molecule highly asymmetrical. XPS fitting data confirm the difference of the Co atoms. FABMS data indicate the possible fragmentation routes. The complex is paramagnetic with _eff=5.2 _B.
