Imidazole-based bifunctional chelates for the “fac-[Re(CO)3]+” core
摘要:
Three monocationic rhenium(I) complexes of the type [Re(CO)(3)(L)]Br, containing the bis-imidazole tridentate ligands bis-(2-(1-methylimidazolyl)methyl)amine (L), bis-(2-(I-methylimidazolyl)methyl)aminoethanoI (L 2) and bis-(2-(benzimidazolyl)ethyl)sulfide (L-3), were prepared and characterized by H-1 NMR and IR spectroscopy. The complex. salt [Re(CO)(3)(L-2)]Br (2) was also characterized by X-ray crystallography. The structure consists of discrete monocationic monomers with a fac-[Re(CO)(3)](+) coordination unit, and the remaining three sites are occupied by one amine and two imidazolyl nitrogen donor atoms.
