RESUMO
The first consistent series of mononuclear 17-electron complexes of three Group 7 elements has been isolated in crystalline form and studied by X-ray diffraction and spectroscopic methods. The paramagnetic compounds have a composition of [M0 (CO)(CNp-F-ArDArF2 )4 ] (M=Mn, Tc, Re; ArDArF2 =2,6-(3,5-(CF3 )2 C6 H3 )2 C6 H2 F) and are stabilized by four sterically encumbering isocyanides, which prevent the metalloradicals from dimerization. They have a square pyramidal structure with the carbonyl ligands as apexes. The frozen-solution EPR spectra of the rhenium and technetium compounds are clearly anisotropic with large 99 Tc and 185,187 Re hyperfine interactions for one component. High-field EPR (Q band and W band) has been applied for the elucidation of the EPR parameters of the manganese(0) complex.
RESUMO
The first crystalline technetium complex in a negative oxidation state, [Tc-I(CO)(CNp-F-ArDArF2)4]-, was isolated and structurally characterized as its [Na(Crypt-2.2.2)]+ salt. It mirrors the properties of the textbook organometallic compound Na[Tc(CO)5], which has eluded isolation and structural characterization until today. [Na(Crypt-2.2.2)][Tc-I(CO)(CNp-F-ArDArF2)4] reacts expectedly as a nucleophile, which is demonstrated by reactions with HCl and ClSnMe3. They give the unprecedented monohydrido and trimethylstannyl complexes of technetium.
RESUMO
The mixed isocyanide/carbonyl complexes cis- and trans-[Re(CO)3Br(CNArDipp2)2] (ArDipp2 = 2,6-(2,6-(i-Pr)2C6H3)2C6H3) can be synthesized from reactions of [Re(CO)5Br] and CNArDipp2 depending on the conditions applied. Reduction of the neutral Re(i) species gives the monoanionic complex [Re(CO)3(CNArDipp2)2]- or the neutral [Re(CO)3(CNArDipp2)2], which contain rhenium in the formal oxidation states "-1" and "0", respectively.
RESUMO
A series of 16 "3 + 2" mixed-ligand complexes of the general composition [ReO(L1)(L2)] (H2L1a-H2L1d = tridentate thiosemicarbazones having a phenyl group with 4-H, 4-F, 3,5-di-F, and 4-CF3 substituents; HL2a-HL2d = bidentate N,N-diethyl-N'-benzoylthioureas with 4-H, 4-F, 3,5-di-F, and 4-CF3 substituents at the benzoyl groups) have been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic methods and X-ray diffraction. Irrespective of the individual fluorine substitution, the complexes are stable and possess the same general structure. Some systematic electronic effects of the fluorine-substitution patterns of the ligands have been found on the 13C NMR chemical shifts of the N-CâN carbon atoms of the {L1}2- and the CâO carbon atoms of the {L2}- ligands. Antiparasitic properties of the rhenium complexes have been tested against epimastigotes and trypomastigotes forms of two Trypanosoma cruzi strains and the amastigotes form of one of them. The results of this study indicate that the activity of the rhenium complexes can clearly be modulated by fluorine substitution of their ligands. Some of the fluorinated compounds show a high activity against epimastigotes and trypomastigotes forms of the parasites. Reactions between (NBu4)[TcOCl4] and two representatives of the fluorinated ligands (H2L1b, 4-F-substituted, and H2L1c, 4-CF3-substituted) form stable complexes of the composition [TcOCl(L1b)] and [TcOCl(L1c)]. Subsequent reactions of these products with HL2b (4-F-substituted) give the corresponding [TcO(L1)(L2)] mixed-ligand complexes. Also, the technetium compounds are stable as solids and in solutions and have structures corresponding to those of their rhenium analogues.
