  • Syntheses and properties of Re(III) complexes derived from hydrotris(1-pyrazolyl)methanes: molecular structure of [ReCl2(HCpz3)(PPh3)][BF4]
    Publication . Alegria, Elisabete; Martins, Luisa; Guedes Da Silva, M. Fátima C.; Pombeiro, Armando
    The complexes [ReCl2{N2C(O)Ph}(Hpz)(PPh3)2] (1) (Hpz = pyrazole), [ReCl2{N2C(O)Ph}(Hpz)2(PPh3)] (2), [ReCl2(HCpz3)(PPh3)][BF4] (3) and [ReCl2(3,5-Me2Hpz)3(PPh3)]Cl (4) were obtained by treatment of the chelate [ReCl2{η2-N,O–N2C(O)Ph}(PPh3)2] (0) with hydrotris(1-pyrazolyl)methane HCpz3 (1,3), pyrazole Hpz (1,2), hydrotris(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)methane HC(3,5-Me2pz)3 (4) or dimethylpyrazole 3,5-Me2Hpz (4). Rupture of a C(sp3)–N bond in HCpz3 or HC(3,5-Me2pz)3, promoted by the Re centre, has occurred in the formation of 1 or 4, respectively. All compounds have been characterized by elemental analyses, IR and NMR spectroscopy, FAB-MS spectrometry, cyclic voltammetry and, for 1 · CH2Cl2 and 3, also by single crystal X-ray analysis. The electrochemical EL Lever parameter has been estimated, for the first time, for the HCpz3 and the benzoyldiazenide NNC(O)Ph ligands.
  • Synthesis, characterization and redox behaviour of benzoyldiazenido- and oxorhenium complexes bearing N,N- and S,S-type ligands
    Publication . Kirillov, Alexander M.; Guedes Da Silva, M. Fátima C.; Martins, Luisa; Sousa, Catarina; Pombeiro, Armando; Alegria, Elisabete
    The reactions of [ReCl2{eta(2)-N2C(O)Ph}(PPh3)(2)](1) with 2-aminopyrimidine (H(2)Npyrm), 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) and tetraethylthiuram disulfide (tds), in MeOH upon reflux, lead to the new eta(1)-(benzoyldiazenido)-rhenium(III) complexes [ReCl{eta(1)-N2C(O)Ph}(HNpyrm)(PPh3)(2)](2)and [ReCl2{eta(1)-N2C(O)Ph}(bpy)(PPh3)] (3), and the known oxo(diethyldithiocarbamato)dirhenium(v)complex [Re2O2(mu O){Et2NC(S)S}(4)](4), respectively. The Et2NC(S)S ligands in 4 result from S-S bond rupture of tds molecules. The obtained compounds have been characterized by IR, H-1, P-31{H-1} and C-13{H-1} NMR spectroscopies, FAB(+)-MS, elemental and single-crystal X-ray diffraction (for 2 and 4)analyses. Complex 2 represents the first structurally characterized Re compound derived from 2-aminopyrimidine. Besides, the redox behaviour of 2-4 in CH2Cl2 solution has been studied by cyclic voltammetry, and the Lever electrochemical ligand parameter (E-L)has been estimated, for the first time, for HNpyrm. The electrochemical results are discussed in terms of electronic properties of the Re centres and the ligands.
  • Molybdenum complexes bearing the tris(1-pyrazolyl)methanesulfonate ligand: synthesis, characterization and electrochemical behaviour
    Publication . Dinoi, Chiara; Guedes Da Silva, M. Fátima C.; Alegria, Elisabete; Smolenski, Piotr; Martins, Luisa; Poli, Rinaldo; Pombeiro, Armando
    The tris(1‐pyrazolyl)methanesulfonate lithium salt Li(Tpms) [Tpms = SO3C(pz)3–] reacts with [Mo(CO)6] in NCMe heated at reflux to yield Li[Mo(Tpms)(CO)3] (1 ), which, upon crystallization from thf, forms the coordination polymer [Mo(Tpms)(CO)2(μ‐CO)Li(thf)2]n (2 ). Reaction of 1 with I2, HBF4 or AgBF4 yields [Mo(Tpms)I(CO)3] (3 ), [Mo(Tpms)H(CO)3] (5 ) or [Mo(Tpms)O2]2(μ‐O) (7 ), respectively. The high‐oxidation‐state dinuclear complexes [{Mo(Tpms)O(μ‐O)}2] (4 ) and [{Mo(tpms)OCl}2](μ‐O) (6 ) are formed upon exposure to air of solutions of 3 and 5 , respectively. Compounds 1 –7 , which appear to be the first tris(pyrazolyl)methanesulfonate complexes of molybdenum to be reported, were characterized by IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, ESI‐MS, elemental analysis, cyclic voltammetry and, in the cases of Li(Tpms) and compounds 2 , 4· 2CH3CN, 6· 6CHCl3 and 7 , by X‐ray diffraction analyses. Li(Tpms) forms a 1D polymeric structure {i.e., [Li(tpms)]n } with Tpms as a tetradentate N2O2 chelating ligand that bridges two Li cations with distorted tetrahedral coordination. Compound 2 is a 1D coordination polymer in which Tpms acts as a bridging tetradentate N3O ligand and each Li(thf)2+ moiety is coordinated by one bridging CO ligand and by the sulfonyl group of a contiguous monomeric unit. In 4 , 6 and 7 , the Tpms ligand is a tridentate chelator either in the NNO (in 4 ) or in the NNN (in 6 and 7 ) fashion. Complexes 1 , 3 and 5 exhibit, by cyclic voltammetry, a single‐electron oxidation at oxidation potential values that indicate that the Tpms ligand has an electron‐donor character weaker than that of cyclopentadienyl.
