The first report on specific binding mode of diethylmalonate acting as a bridging ligand between ruthenium (II) ions stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonds
摘要:
Typically 2,2-diethylmalonate (dem) acts as a chelating ligand and binds to the metal in a eta(2) (dem-O, O') mode. However, when cis, fac-[RuCl2(TMSO-S)(4)] is treated with K-2(dem), it prefers to bind in an unusual bridging mode (mu-dem-O, O') with the ruthenium (II) cation containing coordinated water, forming a strong hydrogen bond with the non-coordinated oxygen atoms of the 2,2-diethylmalonate ligand. The reaction products of cis,fac-[RuCl2(TMSO-S)(4)] (1) and cis, fac-[RuCl2(DMSO-S)(3)(DMSO-O)] (2) with dem are the dinuclear species with two bridging dem units, fac-[Ru(TMSO-S)(3)(H2O)(mu(2)-dem-O, O')](2) (3) and fac-[Ru(DMSO-S)(3)(H2O)(mu(2)-dem-O, O')](2) (4), respectively. The complex 3 was characterized by X-ray crystallography in which water ligands occupy anti positions with respect to each other. The NMR and X-ray study support each other with respect to dinuclear structure of 3 and 4, indicating that the dinuclear structure observed in the solid state is preserved in solution as well. The mononuclear anionic complex with chelating dem unit, K{fac-[RuCl(eta(2)-dem-O, O')(TMSO-S)(3)} (5), was also isolated from the reaction of 1 and K-2(dem) demonstrating that 5 is an intermediate in the formation of 3.
