- Description
- This study investigated the synthesis of rhenium(I) and rhenium(V) complexes with a variety of multidentate NS, NSO, NO and SO-donor ligands. It also investigated the synthesis of dinuclear dihalogeno- and trihalogeno-bridged rhenium(I) complexes based on the fac-[Re(CO)3]+ core. The reactions of hydrated folic acid with [Re(CO)5X] (X = Cl, Br) were studied, and the complexes [Re(CO)3(H2O)3]+[Re2(μ-X)3CO)6]−.5H2O [X= Br (1), Cl(2)] were isolated. The reaction of orotic acid potassium salt [Re(CO)5Br] was performed, and the complex [Re2(μ-Br)2(CO)8] was isolated. The reaction of bis(piperidin-1- yl)methanone with [Re(CO)5Cl] followed by recrystallisation of the resulting precipitate in dichloromethane/acetontrile resulted in the complex [Re2(μ- Cl)2(CO)6(MeCN)2]. The X-ray crystal structures show that all these complexes display a distorted octahedral geometry around the central rhenium atoms. The reactions of aroylhydrazone-based ligands such as 3-((pyridin- 2yl)methyleneamino)-2,3-dihydro-2-pyridin-2yl)quinazolin-4-(1H)-one (Hppq) and N-(di(pyridin-2-yl)methylene)benzohydrazide (Hdpmb) with [Re(CO)5Cl] were studied and led to the formation of the complexes [Re(CO)3Cl(Hdpmb)] and [Re(CO)3Cl(Hppq)]. The Hdpmb and Hppq coordinated to the fac-[Re(CO)3]+ core as neutral bidentate chalates via the pyridinic nitrogens (for Hdpmb) and via imino and pyridinic nitrogens for Hppq. The X-ray crystal structures show that the geometry around the rhenium in both complexes is a distorted octahedral. The treatment of the dithizone (H2dz) ligand with rhenium(V) precursors containing a triphenylphosphine group (PPh3) led to the decomposition of dithizone. The decomposition product reacted with the triphenylphosphine group and generated a new ligand triphenylphosphazeno-N-phenylmethanethiohydrazide (H2L). The reaction of trans-[ReOX3(PPh3)2] (X = Cl, Br) with dithizone (H2dz) led to the complex [ReO(dz)2][ReO(HL)2]. The reaction of trans-[ReOI2(OEt)(PPh3)2] with H2dz led to the same product. The reaction of cis-[ReO2I(PPh3)2] with H2dz in methanol led to [ReO(dz)2][ReO(HL)2](MeOH)2 in which methanol bonded to HLvia hydrogen bonds. The H2dz was doubly deprotonated and coordinated to the [ReO]3+ moiety via a thiolate sulfur and deprotonated hydrazinic nitrogen to yield [ReO(dz)2]−, while the H2L was singly deprotonated and coordinated to [ReO]3+ moiety via the neutral sulfur atom and deprotonated hydrazinic nitrogen to yield [ReO(HL)2]+. The X-ray crystal structure show that in both [ReO(HL)2]+ and [ReO(dz)2]−, the rhenium atoms are five-coordinated and adopt a distorted squarebased pyramidal geometry. The reaction of thiosemicarbazones such as salcylidene-4- phenylthiosemicarbazide (H3salpt) with cis-[ReO2I(PPh3)2] was investigated and led to the complex [ReO(Hsalpt)(H2salpt)]. The X-ray study reveals that Hsalpt is present as a tridentate chelate coordinating via the thiolate sulfur, imino nitrogen and phenolic oxygen, while H2salpt coordinates as a bidentate chelate via the thiolate sulfur and imino nitrogen atoms. The geometry around rhenium is distorted octahedral. The coordination mode of the benzoylthiourea derivatives 4-tert-butyl-N- (diphenylcarbamothioyl)benzamide (Htpb) and N-(diethylcarbamothioyl)benzamide (Heb) to the [Re2O3]4+ and fac-[Re(CO)3]+ cores were investigated. The reaction of [Re(CO)5Cl] in presence of sodium acetate with Htpb led to the dimeric complex [Re(CO)3(tpb)]2 in which the tpb coordinated to the fac-[Re(CO)3]+ core via the ketonic oxygen and bridging thiolate sulfur. The same reaction with Heb led to the monomeric complex [Re(CO)3(eb)(Heb)], in which the eb coordinates to the fac-[Re(CO)3]+core via thiolate sulfur and ketonic oxygen with Heb binding via the neutral sulfur atom. The reaction of Heb with cis-[ReO2I(PPh3)2] at room temperature with excess of sodium acetate led to the dimeric complex (μ-O)[ReO(eb)2]2 in which Heb is present as a monoanionic (deprotonated) bidentate with coordination through the thiolate sulfur and ketonic oxygen.
