Synthesis and characterization of cationic dicarbonyl Fe(II) PNP pincer complexes

چکیده
ABSTRACT In the present work, we have prepared a series of octahedral Fe(II) complexes of the type trans-[Fe(PNP)(CO)2Cl]+-PNP are tridentate pincer-type ligands based on 2,6-diaminopyridine. These complexes are formed irrespective of the size of the substituents at the phosphorus sites and whether cis-[Fe(PNP)(Cl2)(CO)] or trans-[Fe(PNP)(Cl2)(CO)] are reacted with CO in the presence of 1 equiv of silver salts. X-ray structures of representative complexes are presented. Based on simple bonding considerations the selective formation of trans-dicarbonyl Fe(II) complexes is unexpected. In fact, DFT calculations confirm that trans-dicarbonyl complexes are indeed thermodynamically disfavored over the respective cis-dicarbonyl compounds, but are favored for kinetic reasons.

The coupling of tetrazotised 1,8-diaminonaphthalene with 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds [acetylacetone,methylacetoacetate and acetoacetanilide] yielded a new series of tetradentate ligand systems. Analytical, IR,1H NMR and mass spectral data indicate that the compounds exist in the intramolecularly hydrogen bondeddihydrazone form. Dibasic tetradentate N2O2 coordination of these compounds in their [ML...
