Tetrazole and triazole carbene complexes of group 6 metal carbonyls
摘要:
In order to study the relative stability of cis- and trans-isomers of bis(NHC)tetracarbonyl complexes of group 6 metals, we synthesized the corresponding complexes with triazolin- and tetrazolinylidene ligands. By reaction of the free carbene (L = 1,3,4-triphenyl-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazolin-5-ylidene)-first synthesized by Enders - with the hexacarbonyls of Cr, Mo and W the corresponding M(L)(CO)(5) complexes are generated. Depending on an excess of carbene also the cis-(L)(2)Mo(CO)(4) complex was obtained. The latter can be photolytically converted to the trans-(L)(2)Mo(CO)(4) complex. The corresponding complexes with the 1,4-dimethyltetrazolin-5-ylidene ligand (L'), Cr(L')(CO)(5), cis-(L')(2)Cr(CO)(4) and trans-(L')(2)Cr(CO)(4) can be obtained by reaction of hexacarbonyl-mu-trihydroxy-dichromate with dimethyltetrazolium salt. In the cis-(L')(2)Cr(CO)(4) complex, one carbonyl ligand can be replaced by donor ligands such as pyridine or phenylisocyanide to form sym-mer-tricarbonyl complexes. All new complexes are fully characterized by spectroscopy and most by single-crystal X-ray analysis. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
