The preparation and characterization of M2(OEPh3)2(NMe2)4,where M = Mo and W and E = C and Si. The x-ray crystal structures of gauche-W2(OCPh3)2(NMe2)4, anti-Mo2(OCPh3)2(NMe2)4 and anti-W2(OSiPh3)2(NMe2)4
摘要:
Reaction of M2(NMe2)6 (M = Mo, W) with triphenylmethanol in hexane/ether produces M2(OCPh3)2(NMe2)4 (I) as yellow crystals in high yield (92-97%). M2 (OCPh3)2(NMe2)4 are air-sensitive, soluble in aromatic solvents and decompose around 160-degrees-C. The H-1 NMR of I is temperature dependent and shows a mixture of anti and gauche rotamers. The X-ray crystal structures of I reveal exclusively the gauche isomer for tungsten and the anti isomer for molybdenum. The reactions between M2(NMe2)6 and triphenylsilanol (2 equiv.) yield M2(OSiPh3)2(NMe2)4 compounds (M = Mo, W) (II) as orange crystals. In the presence of > 6 equiv. of Ph3SiOH the M2(NMe2)6 compounds react further to give yellow crystalline compounds, M2(OSiPh3)4(NMe2)2. In compound II, where M = W, the W2O2N4 skeleton adopted the anti conformation with W-W = 2.2954(6) angstrom, W-O = 1.925(4) angstrom, W-N = 1.935(8) angstrom, W-W-O = 108.1(1)-degrees, W-W-N = 102(1)-degrees. The addition of Ph3SiOH (> 6 equiv.) to W2(OBu(t))6 yielded the related compound W2 (OBu(t))2(OSiPh3)4.
