- Effect of the sixth axial ligand in CS-ligated iron(II)octaethylporphyrinates: Structural and Moessbauer studies
-
The effect of a sixth ligand in a series of low-spin thiocarbonyl-ligated iron(II)octaethylporphyrinates has been investigated. Six-coordinate complexes have been synthesized and characterized by Moessbauer and infrared spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray structure determinations. The results are compared with the five-coordinate parent complex. The crystal structures of [Fe(OEP)(CS)(1-MeIm)] and [Fe(OEP)(CS)(Py)] are reported and discussed. The 1-methylimidazole and pyridine derivatives exhibit Fe-C(CS) bond distances of 1.703(4) and 1.706(2) A that are significantly longer than the 1.662(3) A reported for five-coordinate [Fe(OEP)(CS)] (Scheidt, W. R.; Geiger, D. K. Inorg. Chem. 1982, 21, 1208). The trans Fe-N(ligand) distances of 2.112(3) and 2.1550(15) A observed for the 1-methylimidazole and pyridine complex are ~0.13 A longer than those observed for analogous bis-ligated complexes and are consistent with a significant structural trans effect for the CS ligand. Moessbauer investigations carried out for five- and six-coordinate thiocarbonyl derivatives with several different sixth axial ligands reveal interesting features. All derivatives exhibit very small isomer shift values, consistent with a very strong interaction between iron and CS. The five-coordinate derivative has δFe = 0.08 mm/s, and the six-coordinate complexes exhibit δFe = 0.14 to 0.19 mm/s at 4. 2 K. The five-coordinate complex shows a large quadrupole splitting (ΔEq = 1.93 mm/s at 4.2 K) which is reduced on coordination of the sixth ligand (ΔEq = 0.42-0.80 mm/s at 4.2 K). Addition of a sixth ligand also leads to a small decrease in the value of ν CS. Correlations in structural, IR, and Moessbauer results suggest that the sixth ligand effect is primarily induced by changes in σ-bonding. The structure of [Fe(OEP)(CS)(CH3OH)] is briefly reported. Crystal data: [Fe(OEP)(CS)(1-MeIm)] crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P21/n, Z = 4, a = 9.5906(5) A, b = 16.704(4) A, c = 23.1417(6) A, β = 100.453(7)°. [Fe(OEP)(CS)(Py)] crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, Z = 5, a = 13.9073(6) A, b = 16.2624(7) A, c = 22.0709(9) A, α = 70.586(1)°, β = 77.242(1)°, γ = 77.959(1)°. [Fe(OEP)(CS)(CH3OH)] crystallizes in the triclinic system, space group P1, Z = 1, a = 9.0599(5) A, b = 9.4389(5) A, c = 11.0676(6) A, α = 90.261(1)°, β = 100.362(1)°, γ = 114.664(1)°.

- A new route to thiocarbonyl-iron complexes: Preparation of FeII[porphyrin][C(Cl)SR] carbene complexes and their conversion to FeII[porphyrin][CS] complexes
-
The reaction of trichloromethyl-thioalkyl compounds including the widely used fungicides Captan and Folpet with iron(II) porphyrins in the presence of a reducing agent in excess leads to the formation of new carbene complexes, Fe[porphyrin][C(Cl)SR], whose stabilities are strongly dependent on the nature of the R substituent. Upon treatment by a catalytic amount of FeCl2 or CuCl2, some of them are decomposed into thiocarbonyliron(II)-porphyrin complexes, Fe[porphyrin][CS], in nearly quantitative yields. Various Fe[porphyrin][CS][L] complexes have thus been obtained by this method and characterized by UV-visible, IR, and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. They are very stable to dioxygen and nucleophiles but react with primary amines R′NH2 in excess to give the Fe[porphyrin][CNR′][R′NH2] complexes. Reduction of C6H5SCHCl2 by iron(II) tetraphenylporphyrin, Fe[TPP], leads to the Fe[TPP][CHSC6H5] complex, which is the first example of an iron(II) porphyrin complex bearing a secondary CHR carbene.
