Hydroxo Hydrido Complexes of Iron and Cobalt (Sn−Fe−Sn, Sn−Co−Sn): Probing Agostic Sn⋅⋅⋅H−M Interactions in Solution and in the Solid State
Bis(toluene)iron 9 reacts with Lappert's stannylene [Sn[CH(SiMe3)2]2] (4) to form the paramagnetic bis-stannylene complex [[(eta6-toluene)Fe-Sn-[CH(SiMe3)2]2]2] (10). Compound 10 reacts with H2O to form the hydroxo hydrido complex [(eta6-C7H8)(mu-OH)(H)-Fe-[Sn[CH(SiMe3)2]2]2] (12) in high yield; its solid-state structure has been elucidated by X-ray and neutron diffraction analysis. In agreement with the 1H NMR results, 12 contains a hydridic ligand whose exact coordination geometry could be determined by neutron diffraction. The 1H and 119Sn NMR analysis of 12 suggested a multicenter Sn/Sn/H/Fe bonding interaction in solution, based on significantly large values of J(Sn,H,Fe) = 640+/-30 Hz…
Metallatomsynthese, Eigenschaften und Struktur von μ 2 ‐(η 3 ,η 3 ‐Toluol)bis[(η 6 ‐toluol)eisen](Fe‐Fe)
Metal Atom Synthesis, Properties, and Structure of μ2(η3,η3-Toluene)bis[(η6-toluene)iron](Fe-Fe) Metal atom cocondensation of iron atoms and toluene produces the mononuclear iron sandwich compound [(η6-toluene)(η4-toluene)Fe] 1. Complex 1 reacts with a palette of N-containing ligands such as primary, secondary, and tertiary amines as well as pyridine, pyrrolidine, and tmeda to form highly reactive instable intermediates. In the temperature range from -80 to -30°C, the proposed intermediates react with toluene to form the first homoleptic Fe/toluene complex μ2-(η3η3-toluene)-bis[(η6-toluene)iron](Fe-Fe) (3) regardless which N-containing ligand is used. Additionally, 3 is also formed when eth…
