Organohydrazide chelate complexes of rhenium and technetium, which
are defined as complexes containing a
metal–nitrogen–nitrogen linkage, have been synthesized using
2-hydrazino-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyrimidine. The complexes all contain a
chelating organohydrazide that forms a five-membered ring with the metal
center. The chelate ring forms a delocalized π system and contributes
to the unique electronic characteristics of these d4,
octahedral complexes, which all have 1H NMR spectra
characteristic of diamagnetic complexes. An X-ray structural analysis of
TcIII(NNC4H2N2CF3
)(PPh3)2Cl2 1 was obtained.
Complex 1,
C41H32Cl2F3N4P
2Tc, crystallizes in the triclinic space group
P with a = 11.9193(3),
b = 12.7026(3),
c = 14.1335(3) Å,
α = 109.9320(10),
β = 94.1250(10),
γ = 105.0490(10)°,
U = 1912.14(8) Å3,
Z = 2 and R = 0.0737 based
on 3528 unique reflections. The complex
ReIII(NNC4H2N2CF3
)(PPh3)2Cl2 2 was prepared and
characterized. Both 1 and 2 contain a uninegative, chelating diazenido
ligand. An X-ray structural analysis of
ReIII(NNC4H2N2CF3
)(HNNC4H2N2CF3)(PPh
3)Cl2 3 was obtained. Complex 3,
C28H20Cl2F6N8PRe,
crystallizes in the monoclinic space group
P21/c with
a = 10.1292(2),
b = 14.92310(10),
c = 20.6924(4) Å,
β = 92.4560(10)°,
U = 3124.97(9) Å3,
Z = 4 and R = 0.0807 based
on 4472 unique reflections. Complex 3 contains a monodentate,
uninegative diazenido ligand and a chelating, α-nitrogen
protonated, neutral diazene ligand.
