Darstellung und Eigenschaften von trans-Di(fluoro)phthalocyaninato(2–)-rhenat(III); Kristallstruktur des linear-Bis(triphenylphosphin)iminium-Doppelsalzes l(PNP)trans[Re(F)2pc2–] · 0,33l(PNP)F · 2 H2O

Synthesis and Properties of trans -Di(fluoro)phthalocyaninatorhenate(III); Crystal Structure of the linear -Bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium Double Salt ^l (PNP) ^transRe(F)₂pc^2–] · 0.33^l (PNP)F · 2 H₂O trans-Bis(triphenylphosphine)phthalocyaninato(2–)rhenium(II) reacts with (ⁿBu₄N)F · 3 H₂O in acetone on air yielding trans-di(fluoro)phthalocyaninato(2–)rhenate(III), ^transRe(F)₂pc^2–]^–. The complex anion is precipitated as tetra(n-butyl)ammonium (ⁿBu₄N), or after addition of (PNP)HSO₄ as linear-bis(triphenylphosphine)iminium (^l(PNP)) salt. The latter crystallizes as a double salt of formula ^l(PNP)^transRe(F)₂pc^2–] · 0.33^l(PNP)F · 2 H₂O in the cubic space group I23 (no. 197) with the cell parameter a = 21.836(2) Å; V = 10412(2) ų; Z = 6. The Re atom is located in the centre of the (N_iso)₄ plane (N_iso: isoindole-N atom) and coordinates axially two fluorine atoms in a mutual trans position. The Re–N and Re–F distance is 2.035(6) and 1.798(7) Å, respectively. According to the short Re–F distance the asymmetric Re–F stretching vibration is observed in the MIR spectrum at 746 cm^–1. Obviously due to a large spin-orbit coupling, the complex salt with an electronic low-spin d⁴ ground state of Re^III (S = 1) is diamagnetic. Hence a sharp signal is observed at –126.1 ppm in the ¹⁹F NMR spectrum. The UV-VIS-NIR spectrum shows the typical π-π* transitions at 15000 (B), 29500 (Q) and 36900 cm^–1 (N) and trip-multiplet transitions at 9500/10500 cm^–1 and 13200/14100 cm^–1.
