Synthesis and detailed NMR study of tricarbonylrhenium(I) and trimethylplatinum(IV) halide complexes of 2-methylthiomethyl-4-(S)-methyl-1,3-oxazoline (L). X-ray crystal structure of fac-[ReBr(CO)3L]
摘要:
2-Methylthiomethyl-4-(S)-methyl-1,3-oxazoline (L) reacts with the halogenopentacarbonylrhenium(I) and halgenotrimethylplatinum(IV) metal moieties, to form complexes of general formulae fac-[ReX(CO)(3)L] and fac-[PtXMe(3)L] (X = Cl, Br or I) in good yield. Detailed NMR studies reveal the presence of four solution-state diasteroisomers, which differ according to the orientation of the S-Me and oxazole-methyl groups with respect to the halogen. Above ambient temperature, inversion at the S atom causes the epimerisation of pairs of diastereoisomers. The energetics of S inversion in the complexes [ReX(CO)(3)L] (X = Cl, Br or I) were measured by standard (1)H band shape analysis of the variable temperature spectra; energy barriers, Delta G double dagger (298 K), are in the range 67-70 kJ mol(-1). Atropisomerisation occurs over a period of several hours at ca. 350 K, and several weeks at ca. 273 K. Platinum-195 NMR data are reported for the complexes [PtXMe(3)L] (X = Cl, Br or I).
