摘要:
Disocyanomethane (1) was synthesized starting from bis(formylamido)methane by the Ugi method. 1 decomposes vigourously above its melting point (-15degreesC) into a brown insoluble solid. The isocyanide can be stabilized by coordination to a transition metal complex fragment. The complexes (CO)(5)Cr(CN-CH2-NC) (2), (CO)(5)Cr(CN-CH2-NC)Cr(CO)(5) (3), CpMn(CO)(2)(CN-CH2-NC) (4). CpMn(CO2)(CN-CH2-NC)(CO)(2)MnCp (5), CpMn(CO)(2)-(CN-CH2-NC)Cr(CO)(5) (6), CpMn(CO)(2)(CN-CH2-NC)Cu(pz*)(3)BH (7) and (CO)(5)Cr(CN-CH2-NC)Cu(pz*)(3)BH (8) (pz* = 3.5-dimethylpyrazolyl) were synthesized and characterized spectroscopically. The structures of bis(formylamido)methane, monoclinic, P2(1)/c, a = 9.189(5), b = 6.881(3), c = 7.616(2) Angstrom, beta = 91.24(4)degrees, R-1 = 0.0475, wR(2) = 0.1748, and the diisocyanomethane complexes 2, monoclinic, C2/c, a = 24.996(7), b 5.882(2), c = 20.572(6) Angstrom, beta = 134.62(2)degrees, R-1 = 0.0582, wR(2) = 0.1357, 4, monoclinic, P2(1)/a, a = 12.143(4), b = 5.848(2), c = 14.301(5) Angstrom, beta = 97.77(3)degrees, R-1 = 0.0355, wR(2) = 0.0972, 6 monoclinic, P2(1)/c, a 11.537(7). b = 12.248(5). c = 12.54(2) Angstrom, beta = 102.75(8), R-1 = 0.1333. wR(2) = 0.3024 and 7, triclinic, P(1) over bar, a 9.8841(9), b = 9.9517(9), c = 16.2479(15) Angstrom, alpha = 104.790(2), beta = 90.530(2) gamma = 98.213(2)degrees, R-1 = 0.0416, wR(2) = 0.1198 were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction.
