Abnormal cyclopalladation of Schiff bases made of metallocenyl aldehydes and α-ferrocenylethylamine: Unexpected formation of the heteroannular 3-atomic bridge

Cyclopalladation of the Schiff bases of general formula McCHN-CH(Me)Fc (McFc, Ru) (1a,b) with a chiral centre leads to the mixtures of three products, two of which (2 and 3) are planar chiral diastereomers formed from homoannular substitution into the aldehyde fragment. The third product 4 is a result of the unusual heteroannular palladation of the amine fragment in starting aldimine. This ansa-structure 4 having 3-atomic C-N-Pd bridge is without precedent in metallocenes. The molecular structures of all organopalladium compounds obtained have been proved using X-ray analysis of single crystals.     

3-Ferrocenyl-3-(1-naphthyl)cyclopropene. Synthesis, structure, and chemical transformations

Crystalline 3-ferrocenyl-3-(1-naphthyl)cyclopropene was prepared by dehydrobromination ofZ- andE-2-bromo-1-ferrocenyl-1-(1-naphthyl)-cyclopropanes by Bu^tOK in DMSO. The resulting compound and the startingZ-monobromocyclopropane were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The obtained cyclopropene reacts with 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran to give a [4+2]-cycloadduct. The small ring opens upon treatment with HBF₄ etherate to afford isomericZ- andE-prop-1-enes and 1-ferrocenyl-3H-benzo[e]indene. Thermolysis of this cyclopropene results in the formation of 1-ferrocenyl-9bH-benzo[e]indene. In all cases, opening of the small ring is accompanied by exclusive alkylation of the naphthalene moiety.

Coordination polymers and supramolecular structures in Ag(I)triflate-dppf systems (dppf=1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene)

The interaction of silver triflate (OTf⁻=SO₃(CF₃)⁻) and dppf [(C₅H₄PPh₂)₂Fe)] gave different complexes, depending on the stoichiometric proportions and reaction conditions. Under limiting dppf conditions, three different forms (1-3) of [Ag₂(OTf)₂(dppf)]_x were isolated. Single crystal X-ray diffraction analyses showed that the structure of 1 (x=2n) consists of a 2-D polymer comprising a tetra-silver basic unit, while that of 2 (x=2) possesses a discrete tetra-silver framework and that of 3 (x=n) is a linear polymer based on a di-silver repeating unit. The structures are supported by bridging dppf ligands and triflate groups. The crystal lattices of the compounds are stabilized by extensive intermolecular C-H?X hydrogen bonding (H=ring proton of Cp or Ph of dppf; X=O or F of OTf). [Ag(dppf)(OTf)] (4) and the structurally characterized mononuclear [Ag(dppf)₂](OTf) (5) were the sole products obtained from treatment of AgOTf with dppf in molar ratios of 1:1 and 1:2, respectively.     

Thermal modification of ferrocene derivative adducts to c60for SMT observations

Molecules that may adopt various stable conformations might be applied to store information. The conformational changes could be induced by suitable polarized tip of STM. For the STM experiments two types of fullerene:ferrocene cycloadducts (C₆₀:Fn) were selected where ferrocene fragment is bound to C₆₀ at the 6-6 bond by different heterocyclic pentagon rings. According to semiempirical quantum chemistry calculation one of them may be used to STM observation without any modification, while the second cycloadduct must be exposed to thermal treatment in order to obtain bistable molecule. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Crystal and molecular structure of 1,1′-ferrocene-dicarbaldehyde

The crystal and molecular structure of 1,1-ferrocene-dicarbaldehyde 1 is reported. Crystal data for 1: monoclinic, space group P2₁/n, a = 5.876(1), b = 11.349(1), c = 29.460(3) Å, = 95.067(2)°, V = 1956.9(3) ų, and D _c = 1.64 g/cm³, for Z = 8. The complex crystallizes such that two molecules are located in the asymmetric unit in which the complexes display different degrees of twisting of the cyclopentadienyl (Cp) rings and formyl substituents about the Cp—Fe—Cp and Cp—COH axes, respectively. The molecule self-assembles in the solid state to form a 2D layered structure held together by - interactions and C—H···O hydrogen bonds.     

Crystal structures of (?)-(SS, 1R, 2S, 5R)-menthyl p-tolyl sulfinate and (+)-(SS)-[(p-tolyl)sulfinyl]ferrocene

The absolute configuration at the chiral sulfurs centers of (−)-(S _S , 1R, 2S, 5R)-menthyl-p-tolylsulfinate (1) and (S _S )-[(p-tolyl)sulfinyl]ferrocene (2) were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction with anomalous dispersion effects and the corresponding calculation of Flack’s absolute structure parameters. Both compounds crystallize in the monoclinic crystal system in space group P2₁ (no. 4); chiral sulfinate ester 1: a = 8.2868(6), b = 6.1399(3), c = 16.366(2) ?, β = 91.816(6)°, V = 832.3(2) ?³, Z = 2 and absolute structure parameter −0.03(7); chiral ferrocenyl sulfoxide 2: a = 5.8371(3), b = 15.390(2), c = 16.143(2) ?, β = 97.748(6)°, V = 1436.9(3) ?³, Z = 4 and absolute structure parameter +0.01(1). The trigonal pyramidal geometry at the chiral sulfur atom of 2 is close to expected values while the one of 1 is slightly distorted. With direct determination of the absolute configuration at the chiral sulfur centers an important gap concerning the widely used precursors 1 and 2 for the syntheses of chiral sulfoxides and 1,2-disubstituted planar chiral ferrocenyl ligands is now closed. The latter substance class is playing a key role in enantioselective catalysis.     

d–d Dative Bonding Between Iron and the Alkaline-Earth Metals Calcium,Strontium, and Barium

Double deprotonation of the diamine 1,1′-(tBuCH₂NH)-ferrocene ( 1 -H₂) by alkaline-earth (Ae) or Eu^II metal reagents gave the complexes 1 -Ae (Ae=Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba) and 1 -Eu. 1 -Mg crystallized as a monomer while the heavier complexes crystallized as dimers. The Fe⋅⋅⋅Mg distance in 1 -Mg is too long for a bonding interaction, but short Fe⋅⋅⋅Ae distances in 1 -Ca, 1 -Sr, and 1 -Ba clearly support intramolecular Fe⋅⋅⋅Ae bonding. Further evidence for interactions is provided by a tilting of the Cp rings and the related ¹H NMR chemical-shift difference between the Cp α and β protons. While electrochemical studies are complicated by complex decomposition, UV/Vis spectral features of the complexes support Fe→Ae dative bonding. A comprehensive bonding analysis of all 1 -Ae complexes shows that the heavier species 1 -Ca, 1 -Sr, and 1 -Ba possess genuine Fe→Ae bonds which involve vacant d-orbitals of the alkaline-earth atoms and partially filled d-orbitals on Fe. In 1 -Mg, a weak Fe→Mg donation into vacant p-orbitals of the Mg atom is observed.
