Cobalt trans

Amino-acid Complexes. X-Ray crystal structures have been reported for many cobalt(m) amino-acid complexes. Potassium dinitrobis(P-alaninato)cobaltate(m) has octahedral co-ordination about the cobalt, trans nitro-groups, and a trans arrangement of amino N- and carboxylato O-donors from the bidentate P-alaninates.371 In Ca[Co(aspar-tate)2] there are two isomeric ions the cis(N)trans Os) (64) and cis(lSl)trans 06) (65),...

A key intermediate, 163, which possesses all but one chiral center of (+ )-brefeldin, has been prepared by the enantiocontrolled cycloaddition of the chiral fi,/3-unsaturated ester 162 to 154[107], Synthesis of phyllocladane skeleton 165 has been carried out by the Pd-catalyzed cycloaddition of the unsaturated diester 164 and cobalt-catalyzed cycloaddition of alkynes as key reactions[108]. Intramolecular cycloaddition to the vinylsulfone in 166 proceeds smoothly to give a mixture of the trans and cis isomers in a ratio of 2.4 1[109], Diastereocontrolled cycloaddition of the hindered vinylsulfone 167 affords a single stereoisomeric adduct, 168, which is used for the synthesis of the spirocarbocyclic ring of ginkgolide[l 10],... 

The first identified complexes of unsubstituted thiazole were described by Erlenmeyer and Schmid (461) they were obtained by dissolution in absolute alcohol of both thiazole and an anhydrous cobalt(II) salt (Table 1-62). Heating the a-CoCri 2Th complex in chloroform gives the 0 isomer, which on standirtg at room temperature reverses back to the a form. According to Hant2sch (462), these isomers correspond to a cis-trans isomerism. Several complexes of 2,2 -(183) and 4,4 -dithiazolyl (184) were also prepared and found similar to pyridyl analogs (185) (Table 1-63). Zn(II), Fe(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Cu(II) chelates of 2.4-/>is(2-pyridyl)thiazole (186) and (2-pyridylamino)-4-(2-pyridy])thiazole (187) have been investigated. The formation constants for species MLr, and ML -" (L = 186 or 187) have been calculated from data obtained by potentiometric, spectrophotometric, and partition techniques.

Similarity with cobalt is also apparent in the affinity of Rh and iH for ammonia and amines. The kinetic inertness of the ammines of Rh has led to the use of several of them in studies of the trans effect (p. 1163) in octahedral complexes, while the ammines of Ir are so stable as to withstand boiling in aqueous alkali. Stable complexes such as [M(C204)3], [M(acac)3] and [M(CN)5] are formed by all three metals. Force constants obtained from the infrared spectra of the hexacyano complexes indicate that the M--C bond strength increases in the order Co < Rh < [r. Like cobalt, rhodium too forms bridged superoxides such as the blue, paramagnetic, fCl(py)4Rh-02-Rh(py)4Cll produced by aerial oxidation of aqueous ethanolic solutions of RhCL and pyridine.In fact it seems likely that many of the species produced by oxidation of aqueous solutions of Rh and presumed to contain the metal in higher oxidation states, are actually superoxides of Rh . ...

No cases of cis/trans isomerism have yet been reported among organo-cobalt(III) complexes, even among compounds not covered by this review. Complexes such as [R2Co(bipy)2] all have the cis configuration steric hindrance would be greatly increased by the coplanarity of the two bipyridyl ligands in the trans isomer 123). 

Duong and Gaudemer studied the alkylation of (presumably) [Co -(DMG)2X], where X is pyridine, aniline, or water, by the cis and trans isomers of )S-bromostyrene (PhCH=CHBr) and the methyl ester of )3-chloroacrylic acid (CHCl=CHCOOMe) in 50% aqueous methanol, and found that the configuration of the double bond remained unchanged, i.e., the halogen had simply been replaced by cobalt. They suggested that the reaction involved the addition of cobalt, followed by the elimination of the halide ion (apparently without rotation around the C—C bond), i.e.. 

Only a few other cobalt complexes of the type covered in this review (and therefore excluding, for example, the cobalt carbonyls) have been reported to act as catalysts for homogeneous hydrogenation. The complex Co(DMG)2 will catalyze the hydrogenation of benzil (PhCOCOPh) to benzoin (PhCHOHCOPh). When this reaction is carried out in the presence of quinine, the product shows optical activity. The degree of optical purity varies with the nature of the solvent and reaches a maximum of 61.5% in benzene. It was concluded that asymmetric synthesis occurred via the formation of an organocobalt complex in which quinine was coordinated in the trans position (133). Both Co(DMG)2 and cobalamin-cobalt(II) in methanol will catalyze the following reductive methylations ... 

With a view to determining the equilibrium constant for the isomerisation, the rates of reduction of an equilibrium mixture of cis- and rra/i5-Co(NH3)4(OH2)N3 with Fe have been measured by Haim S . At Fe concentrations above 1.5 X 10 M the reaction with Fe is too rapid for equilibrium to be established between cis and trans isomers, and two rates are observed. For Fe concentrations below 1 X lO M, however, equilibrium between cis and trans forms is maintained and only one rate is observed. Detailed analysis of the rate data yields the individual rate coefficients for the reduction of the trans and cis isomers by Fe (24 l.mole sec and 0.355 l.mole .sec ) as well as the rate coefficient and equilibrium constant for the cw to trans isomerisation (1.42 x 10 sec and 0.22, respectively). All these results apply at perchlorate concentrations of 0.50 M and at 25 °C. Rate coefficients for the reduction of various azidoammine-cobalt(lll) complexes are collected in Table 12. Haim discusses the implications of these results on the basis that all these systems make use of azide bridges. The effect of substitution in Co(III) by a non-bridging ligand is remarkable in terms of reactivity towards Fe . The order of reactivity, trans-Co(NH3)4(OH2)N3 + > rra/is-Co(NH3)4(N3)2" > Co(NH3)sN3 +, is at va-... 

Molecules having only a sulfoxide function and no other acidic or basic site have been resolved through the intermediacy of metal complex formation. In 1934 Backer and Keuning resolved the cobalt complex of sulfoxide 5 using d-camphorsulfonic acid. More recently Cope and Caress applied the same technique to the resolution of ethyl p-tolyl sulfoxide (6). Sulfoxide 6 and optically active 1-phenylethylamine were used to form diastereomeric complexes i.e., (-1-)- and ( —)-trans-dichloro(ethyl p-tolyl sulfoxide) (1-phenylethylamine) platinum(II). Both enantiomers of 6 were obtained in optically pure form. Diastereomeric platinum complexes formed from racemic methyl phenyl (and three para-substituted phenyl) sulfoxides and d-N, N-dimethyl phenylglycine have been separated chromatographically on an analytical column L A nonaromatic example, cyclohexyl methyl sulfoxide, did not resolve.
