Reaction of 1,6-cyclodecadiyne and 1,8-cyclotetradecadiyne with substituted CpCo(cod)
摘要:
The yields of CpCo-capped cyclobutadiene superphane from 1,6-cyclodecadiyne (1) and (R-C5H4)Co(cod) varies considerably with the substituents R. Electron-withdrawing substituents give yields between 35 and 45 % while electron-donating substituents give very small yields. In the case of 1,8-cyclotetradecadiyne (2) such a dependence on R is much less pronounced. The reaction between 1 and 2 and the indenyl complex (eta5-C9H7)Co(cod) is also reported.
The synthesis and structural investigation of a number of monocyclic alkyne systems with one or two phosphorus atoms in the scaffold are presented. The phosphorus centers in these cycles are stabilized by phenyl or 2,4,6‐tri‐tert‐butylphenyl groups as well as oxygen or sulfur as the fourth ligand.
Transannular Interactions in Mixed Superphanes with One Thiophene and One CpCo-Stabilized Cyclobutadiene Ring: Syntheses, Structures, and Electrochemistry
Superphanes consisting of one thiophene ring and various substituted RCo-stabilized cyclobutadiene (CBD) rings (R = Cp, C5H4(CH3), C-5(CH3)(5), C5H4(Si(CH3)(3)), C5H4(COCH3), 8-12) and one superphane with one thiophene ring and one CpCo-stabilized cyclopentadienone ring (13) were synthesized. The starting point was a tricyclic diyne with a central thiophene ring and two condensed 4-cyclodecynes, 19. Heating of 19 with RCo(COD) yielded 8-12, whereas the heating of 19 with CpCo(CO)(2) gave 13. X-ray structural investigation of 8-13 afforded the geometrical parameters in the solid state. Cyclic voltammetry showed a strong interaction between the thiophene ring and the CpCo-stabilized cyclobutadiene part. This interaction was substantiated by comparison between the CV data of 8-12 and model systems containing only the CpCo(CBD) part.
