- Description
- This study entails the synthesis, spectroscopic and structural characterization of new rhenium complexes with multidentate imine-, amine-, thione-, thiol-, hydroxy- and carboxamide chelates in various oxidation states. Rhenium(I) and (V) complexes with imidazolidine, pyrimidine and bridging pyridyl derivatives are reported in Chapter 3. The reactions of the potential tridentate N,N,Odonor ligand 2,2'-dipyridylketone (dpk) with trans-[ReOCl3(PPh3)2], (n-Bu4N)[ReOCl4] and trans-[ReOI2(OEt)(PPh3)2] led to the isolation of cis-[ReOCl2(edpm)], cis-[ReOCl2(dpk.OH)] and [ReO3(dpk.OH)] respectively (see Scheme 1). The reaction of (E)-N-((pyridine-2-yl)methylene)benzo[d]thiazol-2-amine (pbt) with trans- [ReOCl3(PPh3)2] produced a mononuclear oxorhenium(V) complex cis- [ReOCl2(epm)(PPh3)]. Both dpk and pbt exhibited a nucleophilic attack by acetonitrile (for Hedpm), water (for dpk) and ethanol (for pbt) leading to chelates that act as uninegative tridentate N,N,O- and bidentate N,O-donor chelates respectively. The reaction of [Re(CO)5Cl] with 2,3-dihydro-2,2-di(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (H2dpb), (2,6-diaza-cyclohex-1-enylolonium)2-aza-benzoate (H2den) and 2-(2-(pyridine-2-yl)imidazolidin-2-yl)pyridine (H2pip) (see Scheme 1) gave rise to novel rhenium(I) complexes fac-[Re(CO)3(H2dmb)Cl], fac-[Re(CO)3(Hhdm)] and fac-[Re(CO)3(H2pip)]Cl respectively. The monomeric cationic salt fac-[Re(CO)3(H2salbam)]Br and ligand-bridged dimer fac- (μ-H2salet)[Re(CO)3]2 complexes were formed by the reactions of [Re(CO)5X] (X = Br or Cl) with the potentially heptadentate Schiff base 2,2,2-tris (salicylideneimino)- triethylamine (H3salet; Scheme 2) respectively. The reactions of the potentially hexadentate ligands acting as tridentate monoanionic N,N,O- or N,O,O-donor chelates N1-(3-(2-hydroxy enzylideneamino) propylamino) ethyl)benzylidenepropane-1,3-diamine (H2salpd) and N,N -bis(salicylidene) -3,6-dioxa-1,8-diaminooctane (H2saldane) (Scheme 2) with [Re(CO)5Cl] led to the isolation of the mononuclear and dinuclear complexes fac-[Re(CO)3(Hsaldane)] and fac-(μ-salpd)[Re(CO)3]2 respectively. The reactions of [Re(CO)5Cl] with the tetradentate ligands 2-{[2-hydroxy-3-{[(E)-(2- hydroxyphenyl)-methylidene]amino}propyl)imino]methyl}phenol (H2hmp), 6-((6E)- ((3E)-3-((oxocyclohexa-2,4-dienyl)methyleneamino)-2-hydroxypropylimino)methyl)- cyclohexa-2,4-dienone (H2hcd.H2O) zwitterion and 2-((1E)-1-((E)-3-(2-hydoxyphenylmethylideneamino)propylimino)methyl)phenol (H2hdp) (see Scheme 2) resulted in the formation of the neutral fac-[Re(CO)3(Hamp)], fac-[Re(CO)3(Hhetp)] and fac- [Re(CO)3(Happ)] respectively. The treatment of 2-((3-(2-hydroxybenzylamino)-propylamino)methyl)phenol (H2hbp) with [Re(CO)3Cl] and trans-[ReOCl3(PPh3)2] gave the fac-[Re(CO)3(Hhbp)] and (μ-O)[ReO(hbp)]2 complexes. The reactions of the ligands H2hmp, H2hdp and H2hap (see Scheme 2) with trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] and trans-[ReOI2(OEt)(PPh3)2] produced dinuclear oxo-bridged rhenium(V) complexes (μ-O)[ReO(hmp)]2, [(μ-O)[ReO(hdp)]2 and (μ-O)[ReO(hap)]2 respectively. The neutral and anionic binding modes of thiosemicarbazones to the fac-[Re(CO)3]+, cis- [ReO2]+ and trans-[ReO2]+ cores have been investigated in Chapter 6. The reactions of the potentially tridentate ligand 1-{1-(2- hydroxyphenyl)ethylidene}-4- phenylthiosemicarbazide (H2hpt) (see Scheme 3) with [Re(CO)5Cl], cis-[ReO2I(PPh3)2]cand trans-[ReO2(py)4]Cl led to the isolation of the complexes fac-[Re(CO)3(H2hpt)2]Cl, [Re(hipt)(Hipht)(PPh3)] and trans-[ReO(hpt)(Hhpt)] respectively. The X-ray crystal analysis of the complexes show that the ligand H2hpt exhibits decomposition, thiol-enol tautomerism and a thiolate-iminium zwitterionic process, and coordinates in the neutral form via its thione sulfur and nitrogen and anionic through the azo nitrogen, thiolate sulfur and acetophenolic oxygen. A series of nitrogen-heterocyclic amide-, acid-, thiol- and diol-based ligands as well as their related monomeric rhenium(III) and (V) complexes have also been studied (see Chapter 7). The reaction of N-(2-(pyrazine-2-carboxamido)phenyl)pyrazine-2- carboxamide (H2ppc) (Scheme 3) with trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] yielded the complex trans- [ReBr2(Hppca)(PPh3)2]. The reactions of trans-[ReOX3(PPh3)2] (X = Cl, Br) with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (H2pda) produced the neutral oxorhenium(V) complexes [ReOX2(epca)(PPh3)]. The treatment of trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] with 2-mercaptopyridine- 3-carboxylic acid (H2mpc) gave rise to the rhenium(III) complex [Re(empc)3(PPh3)]. The reaction of 2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)pyridine (H2bhp) with trans-[ReOI2(EOt)(PPh3)2], trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] and [Re(CO)5Cl] gave the complexes [ReO(Hbhp)2(PPh3)]I.PPh3, cis-[ReOBr2(Hbhp)(PPh3)] and fac-(μ- O)2[Re(CO)3(Hbhp)]2 respectively. Their X-ray crystal structures indicate that the ligand acts as a bidentate monoanionic N,O-donor chelate leaving a free aliphatic hydroxyl group.
