Interaction of
cis-[Pt(dppm)2(O3SCF3)2
] [dppm = bis(diphenylphosphino)methane],
cis-[Pt(Bupy)(O3SCF3)2]
(Bupy = 4-tert-butylpyridine),
[Ir(CO)(PPh3)2(O3SCF3)], and
[Rh(cod)(OH2)(OTs)] (cod = cycloocta-1,5-diene,
OTs = tosylate) with
[NBun4][NOsO3] afforded bimetallic
nitrido-bridged complexes
cis-[Pt(dppm)(NOsO3)2] 3,
trans-[Pt(Bupy)2(NOsO3)2] 4,
[Ir(CO)(PPh3)2(NOsO3)] 5 and
[{Rh(cod)(NOsO3)}2] 6, respectively.
Complex 4 crystallises in the P space group with
a = 7.936(1),
b = 10.758(2),
c = 7.738(1) Å,
α = 100.02(1), β = 99.75(1),
γ = 101.75(1)°,
U = 622.5(2) Å3 for
Z = 1. The Pt–N (Os), Os–N and the
mean Os–O distances are 1.958(7), 1.681(7) and 1.724 Å,
respectively. Complex 5 crystallises in the
P21
/n space group with
a = 10.124(1),
b = 15.564(2),
c = 22.623(3) Å,
β = 100.08(2)°,
U = 3509.7(7) Å3 for
Z = 4. The Ir–N, Os–N and the mean
Os–O distances are 1.998(7), 1.710(7) and 1.718 Å,
respectively. Treatment of [Au(PPh3)(NOsO3)] 1
with Ph3P
NPh gave the N-phosphinimine
complex
[Au(PPh3){N(
PPh3)Ph}][NOsO
3] 7. Complex 7 crystallises in the
P21
/n space group with
a = 8.780(1),
b = 20.781(2),
c = 20.711(5) Å,
β = 91.23(1)°,
U = 3788.0(9) Å3 for
Z = 4. The Au–N distance is 2.091(8)
Å and the C–N–P angle in the phosphinimine is
127.0(7)°. Reaction of 1 with Bupy led to substitution of Bupy for
[NOsO3] and formation of
[Au(PPh3)(Bupy)][NOsO3] 8. Reaction of
[Pt(dppf
)(O3SCF3)Cl]
[dppf = 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene] with
[NBun4][NOsO3] afforded the trimetallic
complex [Pt(dppf
)(NOsO3)Cl] 11. Complex 11
crystallizes in the P21/c space group with
a = 20.058(2),
b = 14.899(1),
c = 23.949(2) Å,
β = 114.57(2)°,
U = 6508(1) Å3 for
Z = 8. The mean Pt–N, Os–N and
Os–O distances are 2.06, 1.66 and 1.67 Å, respectively.
