Abstract

The compound Re2O7, Re2O7·2H2O or [ReO3(OSiMe3)] reacted with H2diol to form complexes having the general formula [ReO3(Hdiol)] where H2diol = 2,3-dimethylbutane-2,3-diol (H2pin) or 1,1′-bicyclohexane-1,1′-diol (H2bicy). In the case of H2pin the complex [ReO3(Hpin)]·H2pin is formed initially in the reaction of rhenium(VII) oxides with an excess of pinacol. The hydrogen bonded free pinacol molecule can be removed by sublimation. The monomethyl derivative of pinacol, HMepin, reacts in a similar way to form the complex [ReO3(Mepin)]. In the rhenium(VII) compounds the Re atom has a distorted trigonal bipyramidal co-ordination geometry. Pale yellow solutions of [ReO3(Hdiol)] in CH2Cl2 slowly become orange and red crystals having the formula [ReO(diol)2] may be isolated. The reaction of rhenium(VII) oxides with H2diol and PPh3 in the presence of drying agents in CH2Cl2 produced the same compounds in high yield. The crystal structures of the rhenium(VI) complexes reveal that the rhenium(VI) cations have square pyramidal co-ordination geometries. The rhenium(VI) oxo bis(diolato) complexes are thermally stable and do not readily undergo oxidation in dry air.
