Addition of KN(R)Ph to írans-CPMeskPdCR')! (R = H, Me; R' = Ph, Me) results in the formation of the monomeric anilide complexes ircms-CPMeghPdCRONCRiPh in good yield. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study of #rans-(PMe3)2Pd(Ph)N(H)Ph (1) reveals that it crystallizes in the space group PI with a = 8.423(3) Á, h = 10.768(4) Á, c = 12.565 Á, a = 68.81(3)°, ß -71.90(3)°, y = 87.65(3)°, V -1006.7(7) Á3, and Z = 2. There is no evidence for significant interaction between the N lone pair and the metal center, though a shortened N-C distance (1.32(2) Á) may indicate interaction between the N lone pair and the phenyl ring. Thermolysis of 1 at 90 °C in the solid state results in loss of PMes and formation of the dimeric complex [(PMe3)Pd(Ph)(w-NHPh)]2 (9), which was also characterized with a singlecrystal X-ray structure study. Compound 9 crystallizes in the space group PI with a = 6.805(1) Á, b = 12.186(2) Á, c = 18.943(3) Á, a -89.56(1)°, ß = 85.17(1)°, y = 87.67(1)°, V -1564.0(4) Á3, and Z = 2. The PMes groups are anti with respect to the Pd-Pd vector, while the phenyl groups of the anilides are anti with respect to the Pd2N2P2C2 coordination plane. In solution at 25 °C, 9 undergoes an isomerization equilibrium to form two new isomers. Spectroscopic data suggest that these two new isomers are consistent with syn PMes groups and syn anilide groups. Prolonged heating (110 °C, 12 h) of 9 results in reductive elimination of diphenylamine. 1991, 10, 2969.
From the corresponding TpMo(CO) 2 (π-allyl) complexes, four symmetrically substituted TpMo(CO)(NO)(π-allyl) + complexes (π-allyl ) propenyl, 2-methylpropenyl, cyclohexenyl, and cyclooctenyl) were prepared and characterized by IR, by 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy, and in one case by X-ray crystallography. The BF 4 -salts of the cationic nitrosyl complexes were unstable in solution; however, using the noncoordinating counterion [(3,5-(CF 3 ) 2 C 6 H 3 ) 4 B] -
Cyclic and acyclic dicarbonyl[hydrotris(1-pyrazolyl)borato][η 3 -1-((tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy)allyl]molybdenum complexes and a variety of their 1-acetoxy and 1-alkoxy (RO ) MeO, i-PrO) analogues were prepared and characterized by IR and 1 H and 13 C NMR spectroscopy and, in the case of [TpMo(CO) 2 [η-(1,2,3)-(()-(1R,2S,3S)-1-methoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-yl], by X-ray crystallography. These complexes were prepared in moderate to excellent yields by the tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride promoted oxidative addition of R,β-unsaturated aldehydes and acyclic and cyclic ketones to (DMF) 3 Mo(CO) 3 followed by ligand metathesis with potassium hydrotris(1-pyrazolyl)borate. The 1-tert-butyldimethylsiloxy-and the 1-methoxyand 1-isopropoxy-substituted acyclic complexes were formed solely as the syn isomer; however, the 1-acetoxy analogue underwent isomerization to a thermodynamic mixture of the syn and anti isomers in which the anti isomer predominated (3.7 : 1). The 1-((tertbutyldimethylsilyl)oxy)-3-alkyl-or 1-alkoxy-3-alkyl-disubstituted acyclic complexes were formed with syn-silyloxy/anti-alkyl or syn-alkoxy/anti-alkyl stereochemistry, while the disubstituted allyls bearing a 1-acetoxy substituent existed as mixtures of both possible syn/ anti isomers and the syn/syn and anti/anti isomers. The conformation and configuration of the isomers was confirmed through nOe studies on several complexes and by X-ray crystallography in the case of [TpMo(CO) 2 [η-(1,2,3)-(()-(1R,2S,3S)-1-methoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-yl].
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
