Electronic and Steric Influences on the Rate and Energetics of THF and MenTHF (n = 1, 2) Displacement from LRe(CO)2 (L = Tp, Tp*, Cp*) Fragments by Acetonitrile
摘要:
The dissociative displacement of the THF solvent molecule from LRe(CO)(2)-THF (L = Tp, Tp*, Cp*) and of MenTHF (n = 1, 2) from TpRe(CO)(2)-MenTHF by acetonitrile is studied. While the reactivity of the Re-THF bond depends on the electronic properties of the ancillary ligands (Tp, Tp*, Cp*) attached to the metal center, the lability of the Re-Me,THF bond is primarily influenced by the steric demands of the departing solvent.

Ultraviolet irradiation of (η-C5Me5)Re(CO)3 forms the stable complexes (η-C5Me5)Re2(µ-CO)(Co)4 and (η-C5Me5)2Re2(µ-CO)3; the length of the formal ReâRe triple bond in the latter is determined by X-ray diffraction to be 2·411 (1)à .
