Trinuclear Mo3S7 clusters coordinated to dithiolate or diselenolate ligands and their use in the preparation of magnetic single component molecular conductors.
A general route for the preparation of a series of dianionic Mo3S7 cluster complexes bearing dithiolate or diselenolate ligands, namely, [Mo3S7L3](2-) (where L = tfd (bis(trifluoromethyl)-1,2-dithiolate) (4(2-)), bdt (1,2-benzenedithiolate) (5(2-)), dmid (1,3-dithia-2-one-4,5-dithiolate) (6(2-)), and dsit (1,3-dithia-2-thione-4,5-diselenolate) (7(2-))) is reported by direct reaction of [Mo3S7Br6](2-) and (n-Bu)2Sn(dithiolate). The redox properties, molecular structure, and electronic structure (BP86/VTZP) of the 4(2-) to 7(2-) clusters have also been investigated. The HOMO orbital in all complexes is delocalized over the ligand and the Mo3S7 cluster core. Ligand contributions to the HOMO ra…
Radical salts of TTF derivatives with the metal-metal bonded [Re2Cl8]2- anion
Abstract Four new salts of the radical cations of TMTSF (tetramethyltetraselenafulvalene), TMTTF (tetramethyltetrathiafulvalene), BEDT-TTF (bisethylenedithiotetrathia-fulvalene) (ET) and o-Me2TTF (o-4,4′-dimethyltetrathiafulvalene) with the metal–metal bonded dianion [Re2Cl8]2− were synthesized, and their structures and physical properties investigated. The structures of these semiconducting salts feature one-dimensional stacking of the donor molecules interleaved with [Re2Cl8]2− anions and interstitial solvent molecules.
Halogen bonding interactions with the [Mo3S7Cl6]2-cluster anion in the mixed valence salt [EDT-TTFI2]4[Mo3S7Cl6]oCH3CN
Electrocrystallization of iodinated TTF molecules in presence of trinuclear [Mo3S7Cl6]2- cluster anions provides the first example of radical salts with halogen bonding interactions at the organic/inorganic interface
Synthesis of μ-C2S44− Cobalt Complexes by Activation of the 1,3,4,6-tetrathiapentalene-2,5-dione, and Electrochemical Study of [(Cp*Co)2(μ-C2S4)]
The bimetallic complex [Cp(*)Co)2(μ-C2S4)] in which the two metal centres are linked by an ethylenetetrathiolate C2S44− unit, was synthesized in high yield by oxidative addition of 1,3,4,6 tetrathiapentalene-2,5-dione to [Cp(*)Co(CO)2]. The X-ray crystal structure of the intermediate product Cp*Co(dmid) (dmid2− = 4,5-disulfanyl-1,3-dithiol-2-onate) is presented. The electrochemical behaviour of the [(Cp*Co)2(μ-C2S4)] complex was studied in detail in the oxidative range. This study has shown that the nature of the product obtained after oxidation depends on the presence of complexing agent in the solution. The mechanism has been elucidated in a CH2Cl2 solution in the presence of P(OMe)3. In …
