Isostructural Potassium and Thallium Salts of Sterically Crowded Triazenes: A Structural and Computational Study
摘要:
Because of their similar cationic radii, potassium and thallium(l) compounds are usually regarded as closely related. Homologous molecular species containing either K+ or Tl+ are very rare, however. We have synthesized potassium and thallium salts MN3RR' derived from the biphenyl- or terphenyl-substituted triazenes Tph(2)N(3)H (1a), Dmp(Mph)N3H (1b), Dmp(Tph)N3H (1c), and (Me(4)Ter)(2)N3H (1d) (Dmp = 2,6-Mes(2)C(6)H(3) with Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2; Me(4)Ter = 2,6-(3,5-Me2C6H3)(2)C6H3; Mph = 2-MesC(6)H(4); Tph = 2-TriPC(6)H(4) with Trip = 2,4,6-(Pr3C6H2)-Pr-i). The potassium complexes 2a-d were obtained in almost quantitative yield from the reaction of 1a-d with potassium metal in n-heptane. Metalation of 1a-d with TIOEt afforded the thallium triazenides 3a-d in high yields. All new compounds have been characterized by H-1 and C-13 NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X-ray crystallography and for selected species by melting point (not 3b), IR spectroscopy (2a, 2d, 3a, 3c, 3d), and mass spectrometry (2a, 3c). In the solid-state structures of monomeric 2a and 3a, quasi-monomeric 2b, 3b, 2c, and 3c, and dimeric 2d and 3d additional metal-eta(n)-pi-arene-interactions to the flanking arms of the biphenyl- and terphenyl groups in the triazenide ligands of decreasing hapticity n are observed. Remarkably, all homologous potassium and thallium complexes crystallize in isomorphous cells. For 2a and 3a, the nature of the M-N and M center dot center dot center dot C(arene) bonding was studied by density functional theory calculations.

redox-transmetallationreactions with rare-earth or alkaline earth metals. Thus, reaction of 4b or 2b with magnesium or ytterbium in tetrahydrofuran afforded the triazenides Dmp(Tph)N3MX(thf) (5b: M = Mg, X = I; 6b: M = Yb, X = Cl) in good yield. All new compounds were characterized by melting point, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and for selected species by IR spectroscopy or mass spectrometry. In addition
