Hypervalent triphenyl and diphenyl tin coordination compounds derived from 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenol
摘要:
Reactions of 2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl) phenol (1) and SnPh3Cl, SnPh2Cl2 and SnCl4 were investigated. One tetracoordinated triphenyltin(IV) compound: triphenyltin-2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenolate] (3) and its adducts: [O -> Sn] dimethylsulfoxide triphenyltin-[2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenolate] (4), [O -> Sn] aqua triphenyltin-[2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl) phenolate] (5) [O -> Sn] ethanol triphenyltin-[2(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenolate] (6), [N -> Sn] pyridine triphenyltin-[2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)phenolate] ( 7), where 1 acts as a monodentate ligand bound through the phenol oxygen, were obtained. In the pentacoordinated compounds 4-7, the tin atom has tbp geometry. The three phenyl groups are in equatorial positions, whereas the benzimidazole and the Lewis base are in apical positions. Two hexacoordinated tin compounds: diphenyltin-bis[2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl-kappa N)phenolate-kappa O] (8), dichlorotin-bis[2-(1H-benzimidazol-2-yl-kappa N)phenolate-kappa O] (9) bearing two bidentate ligands are reported. The coplanar ligands in 8 and 9 form six membered rings by oxygen and nitrogen coordination. The tin geometry is all-trans octahedral. In 8 the two phenyl groups, and in 9 the two chlorine atoms are perpendicular to the plane of the ligands. Compounds were identified in solution mainly by H-1, C-13 and Sn-119 NMR and in the solid state by X-ray diffraction analysis. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
