Unusual In2N4 cores in complexes containing triazole-based chalcogen-phosphoranyl ligands.

The 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphoranyl)-1,2,3-triazole [4,5-(P(E)Ph2)2tz] derivatives of indium {kappa3-N,N',E-[4,5-(P(E)Ph2)2(mu-tz)]InMe2}2 (E = O2, S3, Se4) were prepared in good yield. In addition, compound 5 (E = O, E' = Se) was obtained from 4 through the replacement of a selenium atom in the P-Se(In) moiety by an oxygen atom, giving the mixed-chalcogen complex. The crystal structures of 2 and 5 exhibit a central C4In2N6O2P4core with an almost planar arrangement (mean deviation = 0.019 and 0.042 A for 2 and 0.100 A for 5), while the C4In2N6S2P4 core in 3 is nonplanar (mean deviation = 0.223 A).

Syntheses, characterization, and X-ray crystal structures of beta-diketiminate group 13 hydrides, chlorides, and fluorides.

A series of organometallic compounds of group 13 metals supported by the sterically encumbered beta-diketiminate ligand containing hydrides, fluorides, chlorides, and bromide have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The synthetic strategy applied utilizes halide metathesis and reduction of metal chlorides to the corresponding hydrides. Thus, the reaction of LLi.OEt2 with MeMCl2 affords LM(Me)Cl (M = Al (1), Ga (2), In (3)) and LGaBr2 (4) with GaBr3. Reduction of LGa(Me)Cl with LiH.BEt3 leads to the formation of LGa(Me)H (10). Synthesis of LGaH(2) (12) has been accomplished by reacting LGaI2 (8) with LiH.BEt3. LAl(Me)Cl (1) and LAlH2 (6) have been converted to LAl(Me)F (5) and LAlF2 (7), respectively. The former was obtained in a reaction of LAl(Me)Cl with Me3SnF while the latter was isolated in a reaction of LAlH2 with BF3.OEt2. Similarly reaction of LGaI2 (8) with Me3SnF affords LGaF2 (9). Compounds reported herein have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR, NMR, EI-MS, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction techniques.

Synthesis, characterization, and X-ray crystal structure of a gallium monohydroxide and a hetero-bimetallic gallium zirconium oxide.

A monomeric hydroxide of gallium, LGa(Me)OH, containing terminal hydroxide and methyl groups was prepared by the hydrolysis of LGa(Me)Cl in the presence of N-heterocyclic carbene and water [L = HC{(CMe)(2,6-i-Pr2C6H3N)}2] in high yield and in a pure form. LGa(Me)OH was used as a synthon to assemble the first hetero-bimetallic compound with a Ga-O-Zr core, [(LGaMe)(Cp2ZrMe)](mu-O).

Dioxomolybdenum(VI) and dioxotungsten(VI) complexes supported by an amido ligand.

Stepwise addition of one equivalent of n-butyllithium and trimethylsilyl chloride to 2-tert-butylmercaptoaniline affords the new ligand 1-(Me3SiNH)-2-(t-BuS)C6H4 (LH), that reacts with one equivalent of butyllithium to its lithium salt LLi. Dioxodichloromolybdenum [MoO2Cl2] and dioxodichlorotungsten dimethoxyethane [WO2Cl2(dme)] react in tetrahydrofuran solution at low temperature with two equivalents LLi to monomeric dioxomolybdenum(VI) [MoO2L2] (1) and dioxotungsten(VI) complex [WO2L2] (2) employing two bidentate amido thioether ligands. The crystallographic determination of the molecular structures of 1 and 2 show evidence for M...S contacts. The reaction of [MoO2Cl2] with LLi in tetrahydrofuran solution at room temperature leads next to 1 to two compounds where silyl group migration from nitrogen to oxygen atoms occurs forming [Mo(=NL')2(OSiMe)2] (3) and [Mo(=NL')2(OSiMe3)L] (4, L' = N-2-t-BuSC6H4) as determined by NMR spectroscopy. Compound 4 was isolated in low yield and its molecular structure determined by X-ray crystallography. Higher yields of a bisimido complex can be obtained by the direct reaction of one equivalent of LLi with [Mo(NAr)2Cl2(dme)] (Ar = 2,6-Me2C6H4) forming [Mo(NAr)2LCl] (5).

Oxidative degradation of ethers promoted by strontium and barium tetraphenylimidodiphosphinates.

The novel M[(OPPh2)2N]2.nTHF (M = Sr (2), Ba (3)) complexes were prepared and characterized. Upon exposure to atmospheric oxygen, 2 and 3 were transformed to the dinuclear species Sr2-[(OPPh2)2N]4.2C3H6O3 (4) and Ba(2)[(OPPh2)2N]4.2C4H8O3 (5), respectively. Compounds 4 and 5 contain coordinated carboxylic acids obtained from the oxidative degradation of DME and THF, respectively, which were used as solvents for crystallization.

Unusual Anions [LAl(SH)(S)]- and [LAl(S)2]2- stabilized by weakly coordinating imidazolium cations. synthesis of LAl(SSiMe2)2O (L = HC[C(Me)N(Ar)]2, Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3).

Deprotonation of an Al-SH moiety has been achieved easily by using N-heterocyclic carbene as the base. Monomeric mono- and bis-imidazolium salts [C(t)H(+)][LAl(SH)(S)](-) ([C(t)H(+)] = N,N'-bis-tert-butylimidazolium), [C(m)H(+)][LAl(SH)(S)](-), and [C(m)H(+)](2)[LAl(S)(2)](2-) ([C(m)H(+)] = N,N'-bismesitylimidazolium), containing unusual anions [LAl(SH)(S)](-) and [LAl(S)(2)](2-), have been synthesized in nearly quantitative yields. Furthermore, [C(m)H(+)](2)[LAl(S)(2)](2-) has been successfully used for the preparation of LAl(SSiMe(2))(2)O containing the [O(Me(2)SiS)(2)](2-) ligand.

The selective preparation of an aluminum oxide and its isomeric C-H-activated hydroxide.

An aluminum oxide [LAlO]2 (1) has been prepared by the oxidative addition of aluminum(I) monomer LAl (L = HC[(CMe)(NAr)]2, Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) with molecular oxygen. The short Al-O bonds in Al2(mu-O)2 result in short Al...Al contacts and subsequent steric crowding of the Ar substituents from the two oriented L. 1 hydrolyzes to form [LAl(OH)]2(mu-O) (2). A C-H-activated aluminum hydroxide 4, an isomer of 1, however, is obtained by hydrolysis of the bulky aluminum amide 3 rather than by a conversion by high temperature treatment of 1. This indicates selective preparation of isomers 1 and 4.

Synthesis of a new class of compounds containing a Ln-O-Al arrangement and their reactions and catalytic properties.

Synthesis of a new class of compounds containing a Ln-O-Al moiety has been accomplished by the reaction of LAlOH(Me) (L = HC(CMeNAr)(2), Ar = 2,6-iPr(2)C(6)H(3)) with a series of Cp(3)Ln compounds. The terminal Al-OH group shows selective reactivity, and the complexes Cp(2)Ln(THF)-O-AlL(Me) (Ln = Yb, 1; Er, 2; Dy, 3), Cp(2)Yb-O-AlL(Me) (4), and Cp(3)Ln(mu-OH)AlL(Me) (Ln = Er, 5; Dy, 6; Sm, 7) were obtained. This allows further insight into the proton exchange process, and two different mechanisms, intermolecular and intramolecular elimination of CpH, are proposed under different conditions. Complexes 1-4, 6, and 7 have been characterized by X-ray structural analyses which reveals a Ln-O-Al or Ln(mu-OH)Al core in these complexes. The obtuse Ln-O-Al angles fall in the range 151.9-169.8 degrees . The reaction of 1 or 4 with Me(3)SnF in toluene under refluxing conditions unexpectedly yielded the compounds [Cp(2)Yb(mu-OSnMe(3))](2) (8) and LAl(Me)F (9). Reactions of LAlOH(Me) with the mono- and dicyclopentadienyl complexes LYbCp(Cl) (10) and LYbCp(2) (11) supported by the bulky beta-diketiminate ligand were unsuccessful. However, the reaction of LAl(OH)Me with LYbN(SiMe(3))(2)Cl (12) containing a labile Yb-N bond leads to the formation of LYbCl-O-AlL(Me) (13) under elimination of HN(SiMe(3))(2). Furthermore, complexes 1, 3, 4, and 6 exhibit good catalytic activity for the polymerization of epsilon-caprolactone.

OH functionality of germanium(II) compounds for the formation of heterobimetallic oxides.

Two novel germanium(II) mu-oxo heterobimetallic oxides with different oxidation states at the metal centers have been reported. The reaction of LGeOH [L = N(Ar)C(Me)CHC(Me)N(Ar) (Ar = 2,6-i-Pr(2)C(6)H(3))] with Cp(2)MMe(2) (M = Zr, Hf) in Et(2)O afforded LGeOM(Me)Cp(2) [M = Zr (2), Hf (3)] in moderate yield. Compounds 2 and 3 were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, NMR, EI-MS, and single X-ray structural analysis. Compounds 2 and 3 crystallized in the space group P, and the geometry at the metal centers is tetrahedral. The Ge-O bond lengths of 2 and 3 are very similar (1.797(2) and 1.799(3) Angstroms, respectively), and a bent M-O-M' angle in 2 (143.8(1) degrees) and 3 (141.9(2) degrees) features both oxide systems. Different orientations of the Cp and Me groups of the metal centers were observed, and deviations of the Cp groups were exhibited.

Synthesis and structures of aluminium monohydride and chalcogenides bearing a bidentate [N,O] ligand.

The aluminium monohydride (3-tBu-5-Me-2-(O)C(6)H(2)CH(2)-N-2,6-iPr(2)C(6)H(3))AlH(NMe(3))(2) was prepared by treatment of the bidentate salicylaldimine [3-tBu-5-Me-2-(OH)C(6)H(2)CH=N-2,6-iPr(2)C(6)H(3)](1) with a small excess of AlH(3).NMe(3) in high yield. Compound 2 reacted with sulfur and selenium respectively to afford the dimeric aluminium chalcogenide [(3-tBu-5-Me-2-(O)C(6)H(2)CH(2)-NH-2,6-iPr(2)C(6)H(3))Al(micro-E)](2)[E = S (3), E = Se (4)]. During the formation of 2 hydrogen migration from the aluminium centre to the ligand backbone occurred. A possible reaction mechanism for 3 and 4 is discussed and the molecular structures of compounds 2-4 were determined by X-ray structural analyses.

Control of molecular topology and metal nuclearity in multimetallic assemblies: designer metallosiloxanes derived from silanetriols.

Lipophilic N-bonded silanetriol RSi(OH)(3) (R=(2,6-iPr(2)C(6)H(3))N(SiMe(3))) can be utilized as an effective synthon for building a variety of multimetallic assemblies containing the Si-O-M motif. The type of metallosiloxane synthesized-its nuclearity and its molecular topology-can be readily modulated by the choice of the metal substrate, reaction stoichiometry, and reaction conditions. It is anticipated that the synthetic principles elaborated here will allow the design of many other multifunctional synthons.
