Abstract: | Structure Reactivity Correlations in Coordinatively Unsaturated Chelate Complexes. VI. Synthesis, Adduct Formation, Redox Potentials, and Photochromic Iodine Derivatives of Iron(II) Complexes with Schiff Base Ligands Possessing Electron-Withdrawing Substituents Iron(II) complexes of the type 1 have been prepared by different synthetic methods. In contrast to similar chelates of the “saloph” and “salen” types, the high-spin complexes 1 form stable high-spin diadducts ( 1a – 1d ) and an unusual triadduct ( 1e ) with pyridine. The oxidation potentials of the FeII/FeIII couple as measured by cyclic voltammetry are dependent on the solvent as well as the equatorial ligand substituents. The potentials are more positive in pyridine than in DMF, indicating a stabilization of FeII by pyridine. The redox potentials are discussed with respect to those of other metals in the same ligand environment. The complexes form iodine derivatives which show photochromic behaviour in THF solution. The rate of the reaction with dioxygen in the solid state as well as in pyridine solution decreases in the order 1f > 1a ≈ 1b > 1c ≈ 1d > 1e and correlates with the increasing oxidation potentials. |
