Complexes spectroscopic characterization

The first example of a neutral aluminum complex of diazaphosphane, the 1,3,2,4-diazaphosphaluminetidine 50, Eq. (4), has been synthesized by the dehydrogenation reaction between Lewis acid-base adduct H3AI <— NMca and fBuP[N(H)fBu 2 49. The product fBuP(NfBu)2(H)Al [Pg.111]

Of the group 14 elements (Si, Ge, Sn and Pb), only tin is known to form a variety of poly(pyrazoIyl)borato alkyl derivatives. For example, the reactions between K[pzTp] and the silicon derivatives Me SiCl4 (n = 1-3) have not given tractable products (115). Similarly, the reaction between K[pzTp] and Me2GeCl2 gives a complex that has been spectroscopically characterized as [pzTp]2GeMe2, but which readily decomposes. 

The X-ray structure of [cp Ir(CNR)Cl2], CNR = l,3,4,6-tetra-0-acetyl-2-deoxy-2-isocyano-Q,, 3-D-glucosc, has been determined.428 The synthesis of chiral complexes of Ir111 with Q-amino acid anions, L-L, of general formula [cp Ir(Cl)(L-L )] (252), and their NMR spectroscopic characterization, have been detailed. The X-ray structures of (252), L-L = L-proline and [cp Ir(Cl)(L-His-OH)]Cl, His = histidine, are described.429 C-allylglycinate binds in a terdentate manner in (253), which has been characterized by X-ray diffraction studies.430 C-vinylglycinate forms complex (254). 

Zinc dithiocarbamates have been used for many years as antioxidants/antiabrasives in motor oils and as vulcanization accelerators in rubber. The crystal structure of bis[A, A-di- -propyldithio-carbamato]zinc shows identical coordination of the two zinc atoms by five sulfur donors in a trigonal-bipyramidal environment with a zinc-zinc distance of 3.786 A.5 5 The electrochemistry of a range of dialkylthiocarbamate zinc complexes was studied at platinum and mercury electrodes. An exchange reaction was observed with mercury of the electrode.556 Different structural types have been identified by variation of the nitrogen donor in the pyridine and N,N,N, N -tetra-methylenediamine adducts of bis[7V,7V-di- .vo-propyldithiocarbamato]zinc. The pyridine shows a 1 1 complex and the TMEDA gives an unusual bridging coordination mode.557 The anionic complexes of zinc tris( V, V-dialkyldithiocarbamates) can be synthesized and have been spectroscopically characterized.558... 

Zn and N K-edge XANES have been used to distinguish the coordination geometries in (1,2-ethanediylidene)-bis(5 -methylhydrazonecarbodithionate) zinc complexes (109). The technique distinguished between tetrahedral species, square pyramidal dimers, and square pyramidal monomers, formed when pyridine was present. These studies were in conjunction with spectroscopic characterization and X-ray single-crystal data where possible.53 The results demonstrated the value of this technique when single crystals could not be obtained. 

Further reactions of 5/6 with the sterically less bulky silanes HSiCl3, Ph2SiHCl and Ph2SiH2 give the thermo-labile /x-biscarbyne complex 14, which has been spectroscopically characterized (Table 1). In these cases, formation of the silyl hydrides 11, 13, 15 and 16 as products of an oxidative addition at the 16e -complex generated from 6 (attack at Mn) becomes important.

A variety of derivatives of bis-[Bi(tr)2X, X = Cl or N03], tris-(Bitr3), and tetra-([Bi(tr)4X][Na]) tropolonate complexes of bismuth (178, 179) have been prepared and spectroscopically characterized (176, 177, 180). Solid-state structures for examples of bis-(tropolonate) derivatives confirm the chelate interaction (171) and in the case of the nitrate derivative, reveal intermolecular alkoxide-bismuth [Bi-0 2.688 and 2.666 A] dimer contacts 52, which are slightly longer than the chelate bonds [Bi-0 2.130-2.323 A],... 

The complex shifts to high-spin on protonation of the apical amino groups. The structure of [Fe(NH3)2sar](N03)4.H20 is a trigonally distorted octahedral (0=29°). Unfortunately, because of the easy oxidation of the NH-CH2 functions to imines, this compound is very air-sensitive, making the spectroscopic characterization rather difficult. 

Table VII lists three precursor complexes of the type tris(phenolato)cobalt(III) and four compounds containing only one coordinated phenolate (146, 152). In the cyclic voltammograms of [Com(LBu2)] and [Com(LBuMet)] three reversible, ligand-centered, one-electron oxidation waves are observed. On the time scale of a Cou-lometric experiment, only the monocations [Com(LBu2 )]+ and [Com(LBuMet )]+ are stable and were spectroscopically characterized. In contrast, [Conl( L,Bu2)(acac)]+ undergoes a reversible one-electron oxidation yielding the dication [Com(T/Bu2 )(acac)]2+, which is fairly stable in solution.

Historically, one of the most important uses of DTA analysis has been in the study of interactions between compounds. In an early study, the formation of 1 2 association complexes between lauryl or myristyl alcohols with sodium lauryl or sodium myristyl sulfates have been established [21]. In a lesson to all who use methods of thermal analysis for such work, the results were confirmed using X-ray diffraction and infrared absorption spectroscopic characterizations of the products. 

Lewis acid-acetal complexes in NMR studies, but never detected alkoxycarbenium ions.29 The absence of alkoxycarbenium ions in the spectra, however, does not necessarily rule out their intermediacy in the reactions with nucleophiles. Therefore, it was imperative to accomplish the reactions of spectroscopically characterized, nonstabilized alkoxycarbenium ions with carbon nucleophiles. The cation pool method made it possible and opened a new chapter in the chemistry of alkoxycarbenium ions. 

There has been enormous activity in the field of copper(I)-dioxygen chemistry in the last 25 years, with our information coming from both biochemical-biophysical studies and to a very important extent from coordination chemistry. This has resulted in the structural and spectroscopic characterization of a large number of copper dioxygen complexes, some of which are represented in Figure 14.2. The complex F, first characterized in a synthetic system was subsequently established to be present in oxy-haemocyanin, and is found in derivatives of tyrosinase and catechol oxidase, implying its involvement in aromatic hydroxylations in both enzymes and chemical systems. 

The isolation and/or NMR spectroscopic characterization of cr-complexes, as that shown by 1, have received considerable attention over the past two decades, because of the relationship between the formation of such adducts and that of the metastable cyclohexadienyl intermediates postulated in the S Ar mechanism. The detailed structures of these adducts are now well known, and their reactions, the kinetics and thermodynamics of their formation and decomposition, as well as their spectral properties have been investigated in detail5,11,12. Although these studies constitute an important contribution to the understanding of the intermediates involved in Ar, they will not be discussed in this chapter since they have been recently reviewed furthermore, most of the cr-adducts were formed by the addition of anionic nucleophiles13,5,11.

Accordingly, the complex [(TIMEN )Cu] could be synthesized, isolated, and spectroscopically characterized. Electrochemical measurements show that the complexes exhibit a reversible Cu(I)/Cu(II) couple at 0.11 V and —O.IV vs. Fc/Fc for 3 -Cu and 3 -Cu, respectively. However, all Cu(I) complexes [(TIMEN )Cu] have... 

In contrast with non-acceptor-substituted carbene complexes, most of which are rather stable compounds, only few acceptor-substituted carbene complexes have been isolated [500,502,947,948]. In particular, acceptor-substituted carbene complexes relevant to organic synthesis (e.g. copper or rhodium acylcarbene complexes) are normally highly reactive and have remained elusive to spectroscopic characterization (for theoretical treatments, see Section 1.2). The inference that these intermediates are indeed carbene complexes is in part based on the observation that the modes of generation and the reactivity of these reactive species correlate well with those of less reactive carbene complexes.
