.Stoichiometric amounts of RuCl(PPh3)2(η-C5H5) and dppm react in refluxing C6H6 to give RuCl- (PPh3)(η1-dppm)(η-C5H5) which has been fully characterized by an X-ray study (triclinic, space group P1, a 22.377(6), b 9.913(2), c 9.826(3)Ǻ, α 70.46(2), β 78.72(2), γ 80.40(2)°, Z 2) in which 3299 data [I > 3σ(I)] were refined to R 0.046, R' 0.052. Structural parameters are similar to those of other RuX(PR3)2(η-C5H5) complexes. The chloro complex was converted into [Ru(PPh3)(η2- dppm)(η-C5H5)]+ salts; the other PPh3 ligand can be replaced by a second dppm ligand to give [Ru(dppm)2(q-C5H3)+ which contains both mono- and bidentate dppm ligands. Alkylation of the uncoordinated phosphorus with MeI is accompanied by halogen exchange to give [RuI(PPh3)- (PPh2CH2PMePh2)(η-C5H5)I], while reactions with a variety of transition metal complexes result in abstraction of PPh3 and formation of RuCl(dppm)(η-C5H5).

Abstract1,3-Di̲aza-2-s̱ila-4-c̱yclopentenes 1 (DISC), which are electron-rich and easily oxidizable ole­ fins, form strongly coloured, but poorly soluble 1:1 adducts with cuprous halides, while silver trifluoromethylsulfonate oxidizes 1. Much more soluble and again strongly coloured complexes of stoichiometry LPdX2, (L)1.5PdX2 and L 2PdX2 are formed from 1 and palladium halides. The well-crystallizing adduct (PdCl2 · L)2 3a was chosen for an X-ray structure analysis (monoclinic, space group P2/c; a = 10.215(3), b = 14.681(3), c =23.642(5) Å , β = 101.31(2)°; Z = 8 ; R = 0.054), which revealed an almost planar DISC ligand in an oblique η2(C=C)-coordination relative to the π-plane. Structural data and rather peculiar spectroscopic properties encourage a comparison of 3a with complexes, in which an electron-rich olefin is split to give a bis(carbene) ligand system. The electronic reasons for the splitting of electron-rich olefins at d8 metals are discussed under symmetry considerations.

Abstract A nickel(II) complex with (bbimae) (= 2-[bis(benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)amino]ethanol), [Ni(bbimae)(NCS)2] · H2O (1) and an oxovanadium(IV) complex, [VO(bbimae)(NCS)2] · dma (dma = N.N-dimethylacetamide) (2) have been prepared and their crystal structures determined by X-ray diffraction. Crystal data for 1 at 293 K: a = 13.334(2). b = 17.048(2), c = 10.3829(9) Å, space group P212121, Z = 4, and dcalcd = 1.41 gcm-3. Crystal data for 2 at 293 K: a = 14.099(2). b = 14.998(4), c = 14.051(2) Å, β = 107.634(9)°, space group P21/c, Z = 4, and dcalcd = 1.36 gcm-3. In the nickel(II) complex, (bbimae) functions as a tetradentate ligand, and the geometry around Ni(II) ion is best described as distorted octahedral. The structure is very similar to those of the correspond­ing Co(II) and Mn(II) complexes. In the case of 2, which is also distorted octahedral, (bbimae) is a tridentate ligand without the coordination of the alcohol group. The M-N (benzimidazole) distances are in the range of 1.95-2.18 Å, and also observed for other first-row transition metal complexes with (bbimae). and differ in the order V(IV) < Mn(II) > Co(II) > Ni(II) > Cu(II). consistent with effective ionic radii of the metal ions. Comparison of the structural parameters of these complexes with those of the metal ions in biological systems has supported the usefulness of the tripod-like ligands to synthesis model compounds for biological systems.

Details of the synthesis and physical properties of octahedral transition metal complexes of the tridentate tris chelating ligand [Me2Ga(OCH2CH2NH2)(N2C3H3)]− are given. Crystals of sym-fac-bis[dimethyl(ethanolamino)(1-pyrazolyl)gallato(N(2),O,N]nickel(II) are monoclinic, a = 11.7908(6), b = 7.3158(6), c = 12.5797(8), β = 97.035(7)°, Z = 2, space group P21/n and crystals of the mer isomer are monoclinic, a = 18.6617(7), b = 8.7941(4), c = 13.5670(8), β = 91,766(4)°, Z = 4, space group P21/c. The structures were solved by Patterson and Fourier syntheses and were refined by full-matrix least-squares procedures to final R values of 0.048 and 0.052 for 1881 and 2573 reflections with I ≥ 3σ(I) for the fac and mer isomers respectively. The nickel atoms in both structures were found to have distorted octahedral coordination geometry. Bond lengths (corrected for libration) are: Ni—O, 2.090(3); Ni—N, 2.085(3) and 2.112(3); Ga—O, 1.908(3); Ga—N, 2.010(3); and Ga—C, 1.979(5) and 1.981(6) Å for the fac isomer, and Ni—O, 2.045(4) and 2.049(4); Ni—N, 2.091 (4)-2.156(5); Ga—O, 1.898(4) and 1.899(4); Ga—N, two at 1.991 (5); and Ga—C, 1.948(8)-1.971 (7) Å for the mer isomer.

The 6-N(CH3)3-6-CB9H11 carbaborane reacts with sodium in liquid ammonia with the formation of 6-CB9H12- which was used as a starting compound for preparing the 4-CB8H14, 9-L-6-CB9H13 (L = (CH3)2S, CH3CN and P(C6H5)3), 1-(η5-C5H5)-1,2-FeCB9H10-, and 2,3-(η5-C5H5)2-2,31-Co2CB9H10- carboranes. The 4-CB8H14 compound was dehydrogenated at 623 K to give 4-(7)-CB8H12 carborane. Base degradation of 6-N(CH3)3-6-CB9H11 in methanol resulted in the formation of 3,4-μ-N(CH3)3CH-B5H10. The structure of all compounds was proposed on the basis of their 11B and 1H NMR spectra and X-ray diffraction was used in the case of the transition metal complexes.
