摘要:
                                New hexamethylated ferrocene derivatives containing thioether moieties (1,1'-bis[(tert-butyl)thio]2,2',3,3',4,4'-hexamethylferrocene (3a,b)) or fused S-heteropolycyclic substituents (rac-1-[(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)methyl]-2,2',3,3',4,4'-hexamethylferrocene (14)), as well as a series of ferrocene-substituted vinylogous tetrathiafulvalenes (1,1'-bis[1,1'-bis[1,2-bis(1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b][1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene (6a), 1,1'-bis[1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b][1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethylferrocene (6b), [1,2-bis(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-ethyl]ferrocene (21a), [1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b][1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)-ethyl]ferrocene (21b), [1,2-bis(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b][1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene (21c), [1-(5,6-dihydro-1,3-dithiolo[4,5-b][1,4-b][1,4]dithiin-2-yliden)-2-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)ethyl]ferrocene (21d)) were prepared and fully characterized. Their redox properties show that some of them are easily oxidized and undergo transformation to paramagnetic salts containing bis(maleonitriledithiolato)-metallate(III) anions [M(mnt)(2)](-) (M = Ni, Pt; bis[2,3-dimercapto-kappa S)but-2-enedinitrilato(2(-))]nickelate (1(-)) or -platinate (1(-)). The derivatives [3a] [Ni(mnt)(2)] (26), [3a][Pt(mnt)(2)] (27), [Fe{(eta(5)-C5Me4S)(2)S}] [Ni(Mnt)(2)] (28), [Fe{(eta(5)-C5Me4S)(2)S}] [Pt(mnt)(2)] (29), [5] [Ni(mnt)(2)] . ClCH2CH2Cl (30), [6a] [Ni(mnt)(2)] (31), [6a] [Ni(mnt)(2)] . ClCH2CH2Cl (31a), [6a] [Pt(mnt)(2)] [32), and [6b] [Ni(mnt)(2)] (33) were prepared and fully characterized, including by SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) susceptibility measurements. X-Ray crystal-structural studies of the neutral ferrocene derivatives 6a,b, 21c,d, and 1,1'-bis[1-(1,3-benzodithiol-2-yliden)-2-oxoethyl]ferrocene (23), as well as of the charge-transfer salts 26-28, 30, and 31a, are reported. The salts 28 and 30 display both a D(+)A(-)A(-)D(+) structural motif, however, with a different relative arrangement of the [P{Ni(mnt)(2)}(2)](2-) dimers, thus giving rise to different but strong antiferromagnetic couplings. Salt 26 exhibits isolated ferromagnetically coupled [(Ni(mnt)(2)}(2)](2) dimers. Salt 27 displays a D(+)A(-)D(+)A(-) structural motif in all three space dimensions, and a week ferromagnetic ordering at low temperature. Salt 31a, on the contrary shows segregated stacks of cations and anions. The cations are connected with each other in two dimensions, and the: anions are separated by a 1,2-dichloroethane molecule.
