Abstract: | The heteroscorpionate ligand 2,2‐bis(3,5‐dimethylpyrazol‐1‐yl)‐1,1‐diphenylethanol, C24H26N4O, features in the solid state an intramolecular O—H…N hydrogen bond. A heteroscorpionate tungsten complex, cis‐[2,2‐bis(3,5‐dimethylpyrazolyl)‐1,1‐diphenylethanolato]chloridodioxidotungsten(VI) tetrahydrofuran monosolvate, [W(C24H25N4O)ClO2]·C4H8O, was prepared by the simple mixing of solutions of the ligand and WOCl4 in tetrahydrofuran. The tungsten complex was isolated after standing for several weeks. The complex exhibits a κ3N,N′,O‐coordination of the ligand. This simple synthetic procedure allows access to the cis isomer in high yield without additional purification steps. The Hirshfeld surface analysis shows a change of the intermolecular contacts due to the coordination of the WO2Cl unit with the ligand molecule. |
