摘要:
Rigid-rod structured homobimetallic palladium complexes of type [{trans-( Me(O) CS-4-C6H4C6H4)( Ph3P)(2)Pd}(2)(mu-(NN)-N-boolean AND)](OTf)(2)(8a, mu-(NN)-N-boolean AND = 4,4'- bipyridine, bpy; 8b, mu-(NN)-N-boolean AND = C5H4N-CH=N-N= CH-C5H4N; 8c, mu-(NN)-N-boolean AND = C5H4N-CH=CH-C6H4-CH=CH-C5H4N; 8d, mu-(NN)-N-boolean AND = C5H4N-CH=N-C6H4-N=CHC5H4N) were synthesized by the reaction of trans-[(Me(O)CS-4-C6H4-C6H4)(Ph3P)(2)Pd](OTf) (6) with 0.5 equivalents of (NN)-N-boolean AND (7a, (NN)-N-boolean AND = bpy; 7b, (NN)-N-boolean AND = C5H4N-CH=N-N=CH-C5H4N; 7c, (NN)-N-boolean AND = C5H4N-CH=CHC6H4CH= CH-C5H4N; 7d, (NN)-N-boolean AND = C5H4N-CH=N-C6H4-N=CH-C5H4N) in high yield. Complex 6 was accessible by the subsequent reaction of [-4-C6H4-C6H4-4'-SC(O) Me (2) with [(PPh3)(4)Pd] (3) to produce trans-[(I)(Me(O)CS-4-C6H4-C6H4)(Ph3P)(2)Pd] (4) which further reacted with AgOTf (5) to give 6.The structures of 4 and 8c in the solid state are reported. Most characteristic for these systems is the square-planer coordination geometry of palladium with trans-positioned PPh3 groups. This automatically positions the iodo ligand and the Me(O)CS-4-C6H4-C6H4 unit (complex 4) or the nitrogen donor atoms of the C5H4N-CH=CH-C6H4-CH=CH-C5H4N connectivity and the thio-acetyl group Me(O)CS-C6H4-C6H4 (complex 8c) trans to each other. In 8c a Pd-Pd separation of 20.156 angstrom is typical.The electrochemical redox behavior of 2, 4 and 8 is discussed. (C) 2008 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
