A multinuclear (1H, 13C, 15N) NMR study of cis-halonitrosylbis(dithiocarbamato)iron(II) complexes: effect of replacement of S by Se
摘要:
The H-1 and proton-decoupled C-13 NMR spectra of several cis-Fe(NO)(E2CNR2)(2)X complexes (where R is an organic substituent, E = S and/or Se, and X = Cl-, Br- or I-) have been measured at room temperature in CDCl3, as well as the N-15 NMR spectrum (natural abundance) of cis-Fe(NO)(S2CN(C2H5)(2))(2)I. The two CE2 signals observed between 190 and 206 ppm in the (H-1) C-13 NMR spectra of these cis-Fe(NO)(E2CNR2)(2)X complexes provide an indication of the structural rigidity of these compounds in solution. The multiple C-13 NMR peaks observed for the four E2CN(CH2R)(2) alpha-carbons further support this rigidity. The C-13 NMR signal of the alpha-C atoms of the ligand is dependent on the proximate chalcogen, the second chalcogen of the ligand and the ligand atoms to which each of these is trans. The C-13 NMR spectra of the cis-Fe(NO)(E2CNR2)(2)X complexes are comparable to the spectra of the structurally similar cis-Fe(S2CNRR')(2)(CO)(2) complexes and give insight into the interpretation of the C-13 NMR spectra of the Co(SSeCNR2)(3) series. The {H-1} C-13 NMR spectrum of cis-Fe(SSeCN(C2H5)(2))(2)(CO)(2) is included for comparison. The H NMR spectra are complex; the diethyl derivative exhibits a complex multiplet which is interpreted as four overlapping ABX(3) systems for the NCH2(CH3) protons. The N-15 NMR spectrum of cis-Fe(NO)(S2CN(C2H5)(2))(2)I exhibits three peaks: 210.92, 209.09 and 29.28 ppm. This is interpreted as each dithiocarbamate ligand experiencing a different magnetic environment and the NO ligand. The N-15 NMR spectrum is compared to tetraethylthiuram disulfide, CO(S2CN(C2H5)(2))(3) and cis-Fe(S2CN(C2H5)(2))(2)(CO)(2) and is interpreted as indicating similar S2C-NRR' rotational barriers.
