The novel mixed-valence, exchange-coupled, class III dimer [L2Fe2(µ-OH)3]2+(L =N,N′,N″-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane)

Abstract: The reaction of Fe(C104)2-6H20 with N,N',N"-trimethyl-l,4,7-triazacyclononane (L) in methanol affords, in the presence of a small amount of oxygen, the deep blue binuclear complex [L2Fe2(p-OH)3J(CI04)2-2MeOH.2H20 which was characterized by EXAFS, e.s.r., u.v.-visible, and Mossbauer spectroscopy to be a mixed valence iron (II/III) species of class Ill with an Stat = 9/2 ground state.

“…A dinuclear ironA C H T U N G T R E N N U N G (III) complex is known which contain three m-hydroxo groups, for example, [Fe 2 A C H T U N G T R E N N U N G (m-OH) 3 A C H T U N G T R E N N U N G (Me 3 tacn) 2 ]; [24] whether mononuclear fragments related to this dimer can be generated and then used in place of phosphonates in 1 is debatable, but it seems a worthy synthetic target as we strive to achieve an icosahedron.…”

“…Only a few examples of similarly coordinated diiron complexes are known, which either lack a neutral bridging ligand, such as dimeric bis(acetylacetonato)iron(II) [14], and/or contain iron (III). Two examples of the latter type of complex are the tris(μ-hydroxo)-bridged mixed-valent species, [Fe 2 (OH) 3 (tmtacn) 2 ] 2+ (tmtacn = N,N′,N″-trimethyltriazacyclononane) [15], and ferric citrate [16].…”

“…These values, and that of 110 for the bipyrimidine-bridged complex [(bipy) 2 Fe(l-bipym)Fe(bipy) 2 ] 5+ [47], are significantly higher than the value of 4 corresponding to zero net stabilisation of the mixed valence species, but are very much less than the values of the order of 10 8 which are the highest values reached before Class II (in the Robin and Day classification [48]) mixed valence species merge into fully delocalised Class III species. [(LLL)Fe(l-OH) 3-Fe(LLL)] 2+ (where LLL ¼ N,N¢,N¢¢-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane) [49] is, on electronic and Mo¨ssbauer spectroscopic evidence, a Class III species with essentially complete electron delocalisation over the two iron centres. The FeÁ Á ÁFe distance in this last complex is only 2.50 Å (from EXAFS measurements)/2.51 Å (by X-ray diffraction), in [Fe 2 ((6)) 3 ] 4+ this distance is as much as 7.65 Å -there is a rough correlation between FeÁ Á ÁFe distance, the degree of metal-metal interaction, and stabilisation of the mixed valence species.…”
