The first homologous series of self-assembled aryl bromo- and aryl cyanocuprates, -argentates, and -aurates; MLi(2)XAr(2) (M = Cu(I), Ag(I), Au(I); X = Br, C(triple bond)N; Ar = [C(6)H(4)CH(2)N(Et)CH(2)CH(2)NEt(2)-2]-).

Reaction of 2 molar equiv of the diamine chelated aryllithium dimers Li(2)(C(6)H(4)[CH(2)N(Et)CH(2)CH(2)NEt(2)]-2)(2) (Li(2)Ar(2)) with the appropriate metal bromide allows the synthesis of the first homologous series of monomeric group 11 bromoate complexes of type MLi(2)BrAr(2) (M = Cu (7), Ag (8), Au (9)). Both in the solid state and in solution, the bromocuprate 7 is isostructural with the bromoargentate 8. The crystal structures of 7 and 8 consist of a MLi(2) core, and each of the two aryl ligands bridges via electron-deficient bonding between the group 11 metal and one Li atom (d(C(ipso)-M) = 1.941(4) (mean) and 2.122(4) (mean) A, for 7 and 8, respectively). The bromine atom exclusively bridges between the two lithium atoms. Each of the ortho-CH(2)N(Et)CH(2)CH(2)NEt(2) moieties is N,N'-chelate bonded to one lithium (d(N-Li) = 2.195(5) and 2.182(0) (mean) A for 7 and 2.154(8) and 2.220(1) (mean) A for 8). Although the MLi(2)BrAr(2) compounds are neutral higher-order -ate species, the structure can also be regarded as consisting of a contact ion pair consisting of two ionic fragments, [Li-Br-Li](+) and [Ar(2)M](-), which are interconnected by both Li-N,N'-chelate bonding and a highly polar C(ipso)-Li interaction. On the basis of NMR and cryoscopic studies, the structural features of the bromoaurate 9 are similar to those of 7 and 8. A multinuclear NMR investigation shows that the bonding between the [Li-Br-Li] and [Ar(2)M] moieties is intermediate between ionic and neutral with an almost equally polarized C(ipso)-Li bond in 7, 8, and 9. Similar reactions between M(C(triple bond)N) and 2 molar equiv of LiAr yield the analogous 2:1 cyanoate complexes of type MLi(2)(C(triple bond)N)Ar(2) (M = Ag (10), Au (11)). Multinuclear NMR studies show that the cyanoate complexes 10 and 11 are isostructural with the bromoate complexes 7, 8, and 9. This paper illustrates that these cyanoaurates may serve as excellent model complexes to gain more insight into the structure of 2:1 cyanocuprates in solution.

Bifunctional pincer-type organometallics as substrates for organic transformations and as novel building blocks for polymetallic materials.

The reactivity of the bifunctionalized ligand NC(Br)N-I 1 [IC(6)H(2)(CH(2)NMe(2))(2)-3,5-Br-4] has been studied as a versatile synthon for organic and/or organometallic synthesis. Chemoselective metalation (M = Pd, Pt, Li) at the C(aryl)-I or C(aryl)-Br bonds was achieved by choosing the appropriate metal precursors. In this way a series of Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes were prepared that have a second functional group available for further reactions. These Pt(II) and Pd(II) complexes were subjected to a wide range of organic and organometallic reactions, revealing the remarkable stability of their M-C sigma-bond and opening an easy route for the synthesis of mono- and (hetero)bimetallic building blocks. The scope of the chemistry of such building blocks shows that they are good candidates for use in the synthesis of dendrimers, bioorganometallic systems, or polymetallic materials. The X-ray crystal structures of the most representative complexes (2, 3a, 19, 20, and 24) are also reported.

A novel isomerization on interaction of antitumor-active azole-bridged dinuclear platinum(II) complexes with 9-ethylguanine. Platinum(II) atom migration from N2 to N3 on 1,2,3-triazole.

The reactions of the dinuclear platinum(II) complexes, [[cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)](2)(mu-OH)(mu-pz)](NO(3))(2) (1, pz = pyrazolate), [[cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)](2)(mu-OH)(mu-1,2,3-ta-N1,N2)](NO(3))(2) (2, 1,2,3-ta = 1,2,3-triazolate), and a newly prepared [[cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)](2)(mu-OH)(mu-4-phe-1,2,3-ta-N1,N2)](NO(3))(2) (3, 4-phe-1,2,3-ta = 4-phenyl-1,2,3-triazolate), whose crystal structure was determined, with 9-ethylguanine (9EtG) have been monitored in aqueous solution at 310 K by means of (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The dinuclear platinum(II) complexes 1-3 each react with 9EtG in a bifunctional way to form 1:2 complexes, [[cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)(9EtG-N7)](2)(mu-pz)](3+) (4), [[cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)(9EtG-N7)](2)(mu-1,2,3-ta-N1,N3)](3+) (5), and [[cis-Pt(NH(3))(2)(9EtG-N7)](2)(mu-4-phe-1,2,3-ta-N1,N3)](3+) (6). The reactions of 2 and 3 involve a novel isomerization, in which the Pt atom, initially bound to N2 on the 1,2,3-ta, migrates to N3 after the first substitution by N7 of 9EtG. This isomerization reaction has been unambiguously characterized by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and pH titration. The reactions of 2 and 3 with 9EtG show faster kinetics, and the second-order rate constants (k) for the reactions of 1-3are 1.57 x 10(-4), 2.53 x 10(-4), and 2.56 x 10(-4) M(-1) s(-1), respectively. The pK(a) values at the N1H site of 9EtG were determined for 4-6 from the pH titration curves. Cytotoxicity assays of 1-3 were performed in L1210 murine leukemia cell lines, respectively sensitive and resistant to cisplatin. In the parent cell line, 2 and 3 exhibit higher cytotoxicity compared to cisplatin, especially, 2 is 10 times as active as cisplatin. 1 was found to be less cytotoxic than cisplatin, but still in the active range and more active than cisplatin in a cisplatin-resistant cell line.

Synthesis, structures, and strain energies of dispirophosphiranes. Comparisons with dispirocyclopropanes.

Six novel dispirophosphirane complexes have been synthesized from the reaction of bicycloalkylidenes with the electrophilic phosphinidene complex PhPW(CO)(5). They contain a central phosphirane ring, which is spirofused on one side to a cyclopropane or cyclobutane ring and on the other side with a three-, four-, five-, or six-membered ring. Their crystal structures and MP2/6-31G-computed geometries for simplified parent systems suggest that spirofusion with small rings results in a tightening of the central three-membered phosphaheterocycle, while spirofusion with larger rings results in a relaxation of the phosphirane geometry. Similar theoretical predictions are made for the corresponding annulated hydrocarbons. Strain energies for both the hydrocarbon and phosphorus series of structures have been calculated at G3(MP2). Whereas the [3]triangulane hydrocarbon and phospha[3]triangulane have a significant excess strain of 8.1 and 5.2 kcal/mol per spiroatom, respectively, the excess strain for systems spirofused with larger rings are negligible for the hydrocarbons and even negative for the phosphorus-containing species because of hyperconjugative stabilization.

New mono- and tricyclopalladated dendritic systems with encapsulated catalytic sites.

The preparation of a series of new macrocyclic carbodiazasilane molecules functionalized with the monoanionic [2,6-(CH2NMe2)2C6H3](-)[triple bond]N,C,N-pincer ligand has been accomplished. Palladation of these systems was possible through oxidative addition with [Pd(dba)2] affording exclusive formation of the meso diastereoisomer. The X-ray crystal structures of these novel ligands and of the palladium(II) complex 10 were determined and confirmed the stereochemistry of the organopalladium cage. Attachment of the para-OH functionalized carbodiazasilane macrocycle 16 to a central core led to the formation of the dendritic structure 18 which was palladated to afford the novel multimetallic dendritic system with encapsulated catalytic sites 1. This cyclopalladated carbosilane dendrimer (1) as well as the mononuclear organopalladium cage 10 can be conveniently converted into active Lewis acid catalysts for the aldol condensation reaction. The catalytic data showed higher reaction rates for the dendritic structure than for the corresponding mononuclear systems.

Metal-template-directed synthesis of diphosphorus compounds through intramolecular phosphinidene additions.

Heating the nonchelating cis-bis-7-phosphanorbornadiene-[Mo(CO)4] complex (13) results in the thermal decomposition of one of the 7-phosphanorbornadiene groups. The phosphinidene thus generated adds intramolecularly to a C=C bond of the other ligand to give the novel diphosphorus complex 14. This reaction constitutes a metal-template-directed synthesis. Likewise, the intramolecular phosphinidene addition to the C=C bond of a Mo-phospholene ligand affords the diphos complex 18. Its crystal structure exhibits an extremely small P-Mo-P bite-angle for a five-membered chelate ring. The similar intramolecular 1,2-addition to a C=C bond of a phosphole ligand gives a highly strained, unstable intermediate product. Scission of its P-Mo bond generates a free coordination site, which is then occupied by either CO or a phosphole to yield complexes 22 and 23, respectively. The analogous intermolecular addition of [PhPW(CO)5] to a [phosphole-W(CO)5] complex gives the di-[W(CO)5] complexed adduct 28. The directing effect of the metal on the intra- and intermolecular additions is discussed.
