- Description: This study entails the synthesis, spectroscopic and structural characterization of new rhenium complexes with multidentate imine-, amine-, thione-, thiol-, hydroxy- and carboxamide chelates in various oxidation states. Rhenium(I) and (V) complexes with imidazolidine, pyrimidine and bridging pyridyl derivatives are reported in Chapter 3. The reactions of the potential tridentate N,N,Odonor ligand 2,2'-dipyridylketone (dpk) with trans-[ReOCl3(PPh3)2], (n-Bu4N)[ReOCl4] and trans-[ReOI2(OEt)(PPh3)2] led to the isolation of cis-[ReOCl2(edpm)], cis-[ReOCl2(dpk.OH)] and [ReO3(dpk.OH)] respectively (see Scheme 1). The reaction of (E)-N-((pyridine-2-yl)methylene)benzo[d]thiazol-2-amine (pbt) with trans- [ReOCl3(PPh3)2] produced a mononuclear oxorhenium(V) complex cis- [ReOCl2(epm)(PPh3)]. Both dpk and pbt exhibited a nucleophilic attack by acetonitrile (for Hedpm), water (for dpk) and ethanol (for pbt) leading to chelates that act as uninegative tridentate N,N,O- and bidentate N,O-donor chelates respectively. The reaction of [Re(CO)5Cl] with 2,3-dihydro-2,2-di(pyridin-2-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole (H2dpb), (2,6-diaza-cyclohex-1-enylolonium)2-aza-benzoate (H2den) and 2-(2-(pyridine-2-yl)imidazolidin-2-yl)pyridine (H2pip) (see Scheme 1) gave rise to novel rhenium(I) complexes fac-[Re(CO)3(H2dmb)Cl], fac-[Re(CO)3(Hhdm)] and fac-[Re(CO)3(H2pip)]Cl respectively. The monomeric cationic salt fac-[Re(CO)3(H2salbam)]Br and ligand-bridged dimer fac- (μ-H2salet)[Re(CO)3]2 complexes were formed by the reactions of [Re(CO)5X] (X = Br or Cl) with the potentially heptadentate Schiff base 2,2,2-tris (salicylideneimino)- triethylamine (H3salet; Scheme 2) respectively. The reactions of the potentially hexadentate ligands acting as tridentate monoanionic N,N,O- or N,O,O-donor chelates N1-(3-(2-hydroxy enzylideneamino) propylamino) ethyl)benzylidenepropane-1,3-diamine (H2salpd) and N,N -bis(salicylidene) -3,6-dioxa-1,8-diaminooctane (H2saldane) (Scheme 2) with [Re(CO)5Cl] led to the isolation of the mononuclear and dinuclear complexes fac-[Re(CO)3(Hsaldane)] and fac-(μ-salpd)[Re(CO)3]2 respectively. The reactions of [Re(CO)5Cl] with the tetradentate ligands 2-{[2-hydroxy-3-{[(E)-(2- hydroxyphenyl)-methylidene]amino}propyl)imino]methyl}phenol (H2hmp), 6-((6E)- ((3E)-3-((oxocyclohexa-2,4-dienyl)methyleneamino)-2-hydroxypropylimino)methyl)- cyclohexa-2,4-dienone (H2hcd.H2O) zwitterion and 2-((1E)-1-((E)-3-(2-hydoxyphenylmethylideneamino)propylimino)methyl)phenol (H2hdp) (see Scheme 2) resulted in the formation of the neutral fac-[Re(CO)3(Hamp)], fac-[Re(CO)3(Hhetp)] and fac- [Re(CO)3(Happ)] respectively. The treatment of 2-((3-(2-hydroxybenzylamino)-propylamino)methyl)phenol (H2hbp) with [Re(CO)3Cl] and trans-[ReOCl3(PPh3)2] gave the fac-[Re(CO)3(Hhbp)] and (μ-O)[ReO(hbp)]2 complexes. The reactions of the ligands H2hmp, H2hdp and H2hap (see Scheme 2) with trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] and trans-[ReOI2(OEt)(PPh3)2] produced dinuclear oxo-bridged rhenium(V) complexes (μ-O)[ReO(hmp)]2, [(μ-O)[ReO(hdp)]2 and (μ-O)[ReO(hap)]2 respectively. The neutral and anionic binding modes of thiosemicarbazones to the fac-[Re(CO)3]+, cis- [ReO2]+ and trans-[ReO2]+ cores have been investigated in Chapter 6. The reactions of the potentially tridentate ligand 1-{1-(2- hydroxyphenyl)ethylidene}-4- phenylthiosemicarbazide (H2hpt) (see Scheme 3) with [Re(CO)5Cl], cis-[ReO2I(PPh3)2]cand trans-[ReO2(py)4]Cl led to the isolation of the complexes fac-[Re(CO)3(H2hpt)2]Cl, [Re(hipt)(Hipht)(PPh3)] and trans-[ReO(hpt)(Hhpt)] respectively. The X-ray crystal analysis of the complexes show that the ligand H2hpt exhibits decomposition, thiol-enol tautomerism and a thiolate-iminium zwitterionic process, and coordinates in the neutral form via its thione sulfur and nitrogen and anionic through the azo nitrogen, thiolate sulfur and acetophenolic oxygen. A series of nitrogen-heterocyclic amide-, acid-, thiol- and diol-based ligands as well as their related monomeric rhenium(III) and (V) complexes have also been studied (see Chapter 7). The reaction of N-(2-(pyrazine-2-carboxamido)phenyl)pyrazine-2- carboxamide (H2ppc) (Scheme 3) with trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] yielded the complex trans- [ReBr2(Hppca)(PPh3)2]. The reactions of trans-[ReOX3(PPh3)2] (X = Cl, Br) with pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid (H2pda) produced the neutral oxorhenium(V) complexes [ReOX2(epca)(PPh3)]. The treatment of trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] with 2-mercaptopyridine- 3-carboxylic acid (H2mpc) gave rise to the rhenium(III) complex [Re(empc)3(PPh3)]. The reaction of 2,6-bis(hydroxymethyl)pyridine (H2bhp) with trans-[ReOI2(EOt)(PPh3)2], trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] and [Re(CO)5Cl] gave the complexes [ReO(Hbhp)2(PPh3)]I.PPh3, cis-[ReOBr2(Hbhp)(PPh3)] and fac-(μ- O)2[Re(CO)3(Hbhp)]2 respectively. Their X-ray crystal structures indicate that the ligand acts as a bidentate monoanionic N,O-donor chelate leaving a free aliphatic hydroxyl group.

- Description: This study investigates the coordination modes of potential multidentate N,O-donor Schiff base ligands to the [ReVO]3+ and fac-[ReI(CO)3]+ cores. The project is aimed at the synthesis of tridentate, tetradentate and pentadentate Schiff bases ligands derived from the condensation reactions of benzaldehyde with different primary amines. The structures of these Schiff bases and their complexes were confirmed by using physical characterization methods, namely melting points, UV-Visible, UV-emission, 1H NMR and IR spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry and elemental analysis. To further understand the coordination chemistry of rhenium, the prepared diiminediphenol N2O2-donor Schiff base ligand N N′-o-phenylene-bis(salicylaldimine) (H2salphen) was reacted with trans-[ReOCl3(PPh3)2] to yield cis-[ReCl2(ophsal)(PPh3)], whereas its reaction with trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] resulted in the formation of the cis-[ReBr2(aphsal)(PPh3)].2CH3CN complex. In the above complexes the H2salphen ligand was cleaved leading to the coordinated tridentate ophsal NO2- and aphsal N2O-donor ligands. The reaction of H3aphsal with trans-[ReOBr3(PPh3)2] in toluene led to an unexpected compound, trans- [{[ReBr(aphsal)(PPh3)2]Br}{[ReBr(aphsal)(PPh3)2](ReO4)}] with an imido [ReNR]3+core. The ligand aphsal was coordinated tridentately with the doubly deprotonated amino nitrogen leading to Re(V)-imido complexes. The reaction of 2-((Z)-(2-aminoethylimino)methyl)phenol (H3amphol) with [Re(CO)5Cl] led to the rhenium(I) product fac-[Re(CO)3(H3amphol)] with H3amphol coordinated as a monoanionic tridentate chelate through its phenolate oxygen and amino nitrogen atoms. The X-ray crystal structures showed that all complexes display a distorted octahedral geometry around the central rhenium atom. The reaction of 2,6-bis(2-hydroxyphenylimino)pyridine (H2hpp) with cis-[ReO2I(PPh3)2] resulted in the reduced Re(III) product trans-[Re(hpp)(PPh3)2]I, while trans-[Re(hpp)(PPh3)2](ReO4) was isolated from its reaction with trans-[ReOCl3(PPh3)2]. The H2hpp ligand acts as a pentadentate N3O2-donor ligand where the two phenolic protons undergo deprotonation and its three nitrogens act as neutral donor atoms. Both compounds resulted from a disproportionation reaction characterized by the produced perrhenate counter-ion. The complex fac-[Re(CO)3(H2hpp)Cl] was prepared from [Re(CO)5Cl] and H2hpp in toluene. The H2hpp ligand acted as a neutral bidentate N,N-donor chelate. The metal is coordinated to three carbonyl donors in a facial orientation, two neutral nitrogen atoms and a chloride ligand. The reactions of the potentially tetradentate ligand N,N'-ethylenebis(salicylideneimine) (H2salen) with different rhenium(V) precursors resulted in the formation of two dimeric oxorhenium (V) compounds. In the reaction of H2salen with trans-[ReOCl3(PPh3)2] in ethanol, the highly unusual distorted dimeric complex (μ-salen)[ReOCl2(PPh3)]2 was isolated, in which salen2- is coordinated as a tetradentate to two oxorhenium(V) centres, and salen2- is present as a bidentate monoanionic ligand on each rhenium center. The reaction of cis- [ReO2I(PPh3)2] with H2salen led to the formation of the neutral dimeric oxorhenium(V) complex (μ-O)[ReO(salen)]2 in which the tetradentate chelate salen acts as a tetradentate dianionic ligand through its phenolate oxygens and nitrogen atoms of the azomethine groups. In its reaction with H2hmp the compound (μ-O)[ReO(hmp)]2 was isolated. In this product the pentadentate ligand H2hmp coordinated as tetradentate via its phenolic oxygen and nitrogen atoms. The reaction of the potentially tetradentate N1,N2-bis(aminobenzylidene)-1,2-ethylenediamine (H2amben) with trans-[ReOCl3(PPh3)2] led to the formation of the monocationic square-pyramidal complex salt [ReO(amben)](ReO4.
