Novel p-tolylimido rhenium(V) complexes incorporating quinoline-2-carboxylate ion – Synthesis, X-ray studies, spectroscopic characterization and DFT calculations
摘要:
Novel p-tolylimido rhenium(V) complexes trans-[Re(p-NC6H4CH3)X-2(quin-2-COO)(PPh3)] and cis-[Re (p-NC6H4CH3)X-2(quin-2-COO)(PPh3)]center dot MeCN have been obtained in the reactions of [Re(p-NC6H4CH3)X-3 (PPh3)(2)] (X = Cl, Br) with quinoline-2-carboxylic acid. The compounds were identified by elemental analysis IR, UV-Vis spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. The electronic structures of trans-and cis-halide isomers of [Re(p-NC6H4CH3)Cl-2(quin-2-COO)(PPh3)] have been calculated with the density functional theory (DFT) method. Additional information about binding in the compounds [Re(p-NC6H4CH3)Cl-2(quin-2-COO)(PPh3)] with cis- and trans-halide arrangement has been obtained by NBO analysis. The electronic spectra of trans and cis isomers of [Re(p-NC6H4CH3)Cl-2(quin-2-COO)(PPh3)] were investigated at the TDDFT level employing B3LYP functional in combination with LANL2DZ.
