Complexes with osmium compounds

Many unsaturated compounds form 7t-complexes with osmium including alkenes, [Os(P(C6H5)3)2(CO)2(r -C2H4)] [79725-76-1] alkynes,... 

Whereas several catalytic methods are currently available for manganese-catalyzed epoxidation with aqueous H2O2, high turnover numbers for cis-dihydroxylation reactions so far have only been achieved with osmium compounds 161-165). However, manganese-catalyzed oxidation reactions have a few inherent advantages, such as the low price of the manganese salts and complexes and their non-toxic nature. 

Coordination Compounds. Osmium in oxidation states from +2 to +8 forms a wide range of complexes with nitrogen ligands. Amine... 

Many of the ammine complexes are osmium(III) compounds the +2 state is less stable than with ruthenium, as expected, and osmium(II) compounds... 

The reactions of a neutral 10 as well as a cationic dihydrido(acetato)osmium complex 12 with acetylenic compounds were examined (Scheme 6-17) [11-13]. A vinyU-dene 99, an osmacyclopropene 100, or a carbyne complex 101 were obtained, depending on the starting hydrido(acetato) complexes or the kind of acetylene used. In any case, the reaction proceeded by insertion of a C C triple bond into one of the two Os-H bonds, but the acetato ligands do not take part in the reaction and act as stabilizing ligands. 

The application of organometallic complexes of the other group 8 elements, iron and osmium, in anticancer drug design has until recently been almost exclusively focused on iron, with the ferrocenyl derivative of tamoxifen (ferrocifen) being the most prominent example (104). Organometallic osmium compounds have been little explored in this respect. 

Examples of the osmium and iridium complexes are Os(PPh3)2Cl(NO) and Ir(PPh3)3(NO), respectively [216]. The osmium compound gave, on reaction with HC1, the first characterized complex with the feature of an N-coordinated HNO, Os(PPh3)2Cl2(HNO), which was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. On the other hand, the nitrosylated iridium compound gave the hydroxylamine complex [216]. 

Ru3(CO)10(Ph2C2)2, and Ru3(CO)9(C2(Ph)2)3 (128). The dinuclear complex Ru2(CO)6(C2Ph2)2, containing a metallocyclopentadiene ring similar to that observed for both iron and osmium, is a further product in the reaction this does imply very similar structures for the trinuclear adducts to those observed for iron and osmium. The carbonyl reacts with tetracyclone to yield the complex Ru3(CO)i0(C2Ph2)2, which may be related to the osmium compounds discussed later. Phosphine substitution of the carbonyls in some of these compounds has been established. 

A similar polymer, composed of osmium complexed with bis-dichlorobipyridine, chloride, and PVI in a PVI—poly(acrylamide) copolymer (Table 2, compound 3), demonstrated a lower redox potential, 0.57 V vs SHE, at 37.5 °C in a nitrogen-saturated buffer, pH 5 109,156 adduct of this polymer with bilirubin oxidase, an oxygen-reducing enzyme, was immobilized on a carbon paper RDE and generated a current density exceeding 9 mA/cm at 4000 rpm in an O2-saturated PBS buffer, pH 7, 37.5 °C. Current decayed at a rate of 10% per day for 6 days on an RDE at 300 rpm. The performance characteristics of electrodes made with this polymer are compared to other reported results in Table 2. 

Many ruthenyl and osmyl complexes with O donor ligands are known. The ruthenium compounds are usually prepared from [RuOJ, which can be generated by the oxidation of RuCl3 xH20 or [RUO2] with [104] . The osmium compounds are usually prepared from [OSO4] or K2[0s(0)2(0H)4].

Os forms many complexes with nitnte. oxalate, carbon monoxide, amines, and thio ureas. The latter arc important analytically Osmium forms the interesting aromatic sandwich" compound, osmocene. A metallocene is described under Ruthenium. See also Chemical Elements and Platinum and Platinum Group. 

It is also relevant to record that several iron-carbonyl complexes with bridging, and in one case terminal, aryltellurol ligands have been prepared by reaction of Fe(CO)5, Fe(CO)12 or [ji-CpFe(CO)2]2 with diaryl ditellurides and which, together with complexes containing other transition metal carbonyls, e.g, ruthenium, osmium and manganese, provide a substantial number of interesting compounds.2...
