Chloro complexes structural chemistry

In addition there has been a recent review of manganese porphyrin chemistry (19) as well as of the aqueous and chloro complexes of the porphyrin species (20). These discussions are complemented by a discussion of the electrochemistry of manganese porphyrin compounds (21). Related studies include the phthalocyanine complexes (22), the manganese (III)-hemoglobin structure (23), and the characterization of macrocyclic complexes of manganese (24, 25). Other relevant chemistry involves the Schiff-base complexes of Mn(III) (26, 27, 28). 

PGM form complexes with a variety of organic and inorganic ligands. Depending on their valency, PGM elements prefer either coordination number 4 (planar complexes) or 6 (octahedral complexes). Coordination number 5 (trigonal-bipyramidal, square-pyramidal) and complexes with a tetrahedral structure can also be observed, but to a much lesser extent. Of special importance are chloro complexes of PGM, which play an important role in PGM extraction and refining processes and in analytical chemistry.

A general approach to rhenium hydrazido complexes is the reaction of oxo or chloro compounds with organohydrazines as has been demonstrated in an early report with the synthesis of [Re NNC(Ph)0 Cl2(PPh3)2] (310), " the molecular structure of which was solved in 1988. A detailed study on [Re(NNR)Cl2(PPh3)2] complexes with R = COPh or phthalazine shows that the course of subsequent reactions is governed both by the nature of the donor group R responsible for chelate closure and by the type of donor ligand introduced. No simple substitution chemistry has been observed for R = phthalazine. The benzoyl compound... 

The Mo04+ core structure is found in MoVI chemistry in a relatively small number of authenticated structures and in a few suggested examples shown in Table 3. The simplest set of complexes which potentially contains the Mo04+ core is MoOX4(X = F, Cl, Br). While a square pyramidal structure seems probable for the chloro and bromo complexes,232 the fluoro complex is polymeric in the solid state and in solution as well.233-235... 

The dimeric mono(cyclooctatetraenyl)lanthanide chlorides [(COT)Ln(/r-Cl)(THF)2]2 are long known and still represent the most useful precursors in (COT)Ln chemistry. A recently reported alternative preparation of the Sm derivative involves the reaction of samarium metal with COT in THF in the presence of a small amount of I IgCL. The molecular structure of [(COT)Sm(/i-CI)(TT 11 )2]2 has been determined.805,806 Iodo-(cyclooctatetraenyl)lanthanide iodides of the type (COT)Lnl(TIIF) (Ln = La, Ce, Pr, n = 3 Ln = Nd, n = 2 Ln = Sm, n l) are readily accessible in a one-pot reaction of metallic lanthanides with COT in the presence of an equimolar amount of iodine. Bromo- and chloro-bridged binuclear complexes of samarium, [(COT)Sm(/.t-X)(THF )2]2 (X = Br, Cl), were also prepared by the reaction of samarium metal with COT in the presence of 1,2-dibromoethane or Ph3PCl2, respectively.807 Alternatively, the iodo complexes (COT)LnI(THF)3 (Ln = Nd, Sm) can be synthesized directly from the lanthanide triiodides and K2COT. The molecular structure of (COT)Ndl(THF)3 has been determined by X-ray diffraction.808 A clean preparation of the monomeric half-sandwich complex (GOT)TmI(THF)2 involves treatment of Tml2 with equimolar amounts of COT in THF at room temperature (Scheme 227). The product was isolated as red crystals in 75% yield.628...
