Hydride participation in electron transfer processes between metal carbonyl anions and cations

Kinetic studies of selected metal carbonyl anions establish their reactivity as nucleophiles or for electron transfer. The iron species, [HFe(CO)3L]- (L = CO, PPh3), behave as metal-centered nucleophiles when reacted with [M(CO)6]+ (M = Mn, Re). Determination of the deuterium kinetic isotope ratio from kinetic studies of [HFe(CO)4]- and [DFe(CO)4]-, kH/kD = 2.8, indicates primary isotope effects for reaction with Mn(CO)6+. Initial products from transfer of a CO and back transfer of two electrons are observed in some cases. For Re-(CO)6+ exclusive formation of HRe(CO)5 as a rhenium product strongly indicates a hydrogen transfer mechanism.

Reactions of metal carbonyl anions with metal carbonyl halides proceed by two separate paths. When the reactant anion is a strong nucleophile, the halogen is transferred, resulting in a new metal carbonyl halide and a new metal carbonyl anion as intermediates. The ultimate products, in this case, are the homobimetallic complexes. In cases where the reactant metal carbonyl anion is a poor nucleophile, a single electron transfer occurs, leading to the two homobimetallic complexes and to the heterobimetallic complex. Halide effects and possible indenyl effects are examined. The complex [Mo(indenyl)(CO)3]2 crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric orthorhombic space group P212121 (No. 19) with a = 7.3572(7) ?, b = 14.4539(12) ?, c = 19.983(2) ?, V = 2125.0(4) ?3, and Z = 4. Diffraction data were collected on a Siemens R3m/V diffractometer for 2θ = 5-45° (Mo Kα), and the structure was solved and refined to R = 3.21% and Rw = 3.23% for all 2786 independent reflections (R = 2.26% and Rw = 2.81% for those 2314 reflections with |Fo|> 6σ(|Fo|). The complex is held together by a Mo-Mo single bond (Mo(1)-Mo(2) = 3.251(1) ?), and has Mo-CO distances ranging from 1.956(6) to 1.988(7) ?, averaging 1.970 ± 0.016 A. Molybdenum-carbon distances to the η5-indenyl rings range from 2.300(7) to 2.427(6) ? for Mo(1) and 2.306(7) to 2.430(6) ? for Mo(2).
Group- and electron-transfer reactions of tetracarbonylferrate(2-)

Reactions of Fe(CO)42- with metal carbonyl complexes lead to distinct mechanisms. Reaction with metal carbonyl cations gives a two-electron process that we interpret as a CO2+ transfer. Reaction with Mn2(CO)10 occurs by a single-electron transfer producing Fe2(CO)82- and Mn(CO)5-. Reaction with Mn(CO)5Br also occurs by a single-electron transfer. Reaction with Re(CO)5Br could be either SET or direct nucleophilic displacement. Kinetic studies are reported for several reactions.
