Pyridyldithiafulvenes as Precursors of Coordination-Driven Self-Assembled Redox Active Macrocycle
摘要:
A novel redox active macrocycle including two vinylogous tetrathiafulvalenes (TTFVs) and two molybdenum tetracarbonyl fragments has been synthezised thanks to the coordination-driven self-assembly of complementary angular derivatives. Pyridyl vinylogous TTFVs have been deliberately elaborated for that purpose, using the oxidative coupling of pyridyldithiafulvenes (DTF). Cyclic voltammetry, IR and NMR spectroscopies, and single-crystal X-ray crystallography of the target molecules have been investigated.

The ability of pyridyldithiafulvenes to react as monodentate ligand with Mo(CO)(6) and Pb(ClO4)(2) has been investigated. The corresponding molybdenum carbonyl complexes have been isolated while no coordination to lead has been observed. As evidenced by X-ray crystal structure analysis, protonation of the pyridyl moiety has occurred due to the propensity of lead perchlorate trihydrate to hydrolyze in acetonitrile. The spectroscopic and redox properties of the molybdenum complexes as well as the pyridinium dithiafulvenes have been compared with their precursors and discussed. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.
