Page/Page column 14, (2008/06/13)
Metal(IV) tetrakis(N,N'-dialkylamidinates) were synthesized and characterized. Exemplary metals include hafnium, zirconium, tantalum, niobium, tungsten, molybdenum, tin and uranium. These compounds are volatile, highly stable thermally, and suitable for vapor deposition of metals and their oxides, nitrides and other compounds.

Reactions of [Cp*Ir(η3-CH2CHCHPh)(NCMe)]OTf (1) with protic amines, alcohols, and water produce amidine complexes [Cp*Ir(η3-CH2CHCHPh)(NH=C(NR2)Me)]OTf (2) (R2 = (Me)2 (a), (Me)(H) (b), (i-Pr)(H) (c), (-CH2(CH2)3CH2-) (d)), imino-ether complexes [Cp*Ir-(η3-CH2CHCHPh)(NH=C(OR′)Me)]OTf (4) (R′ = Me (a), Et (b), i-Pr (c)), and amido complex Cp*Ir(η3-CH2CHCHPh)(NHC(=O)Me) (5-K), respectively. The keto form amido complex 5-K undergoes tautomerization to give the enol form complex Cp*Ir(η3-CH2CHCHPh)(N= C(OH)Me) (5-E) in polar solvents. Tertiary amines (NMe3, NEt3) react with 1 in chlorinated solvents (XCl) to give the chloro complex Cp*IrCl(η3-CH2CHCHPh) (3) and quaternary ammonium salts [R3NX]OTf(R = Me, Et and X = CH2Cl, CH3, CHCl2, CCl3, PhCH2). Crystal structures of 2a, 4a, 5-K, and [Cp*Ir(NH=C(OH)Me)(OH2)(PPh3)]OTf2 (6) have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis, which lead us to suggest hybrid structures, Ir--NH-C(=N+Me2)Me (2a′) for 2a and Ir--NH-C(=O+Me)Me (4a′) for 4a to some extent. Complexes 2 and 4 react with PPh3 to give an iridium(III) complex [Cp*Ir(η3-CH2CHCHPh)(PPh3)]OTf (7) and the free amidines NH=C(NR2)Me (8) and imino-ethers NH=C(OR′)Me (9), respectively. Nitrile complexes 1 and [Cp*Ir(η3-CH2CHCHPh)(NCCH= CHMe)]OTf(10) catalyze the hydration of the nitriles in the presence of Na2CO3 to produce amides, and the benzonitrile complex [Cp*Ir(η3-CH2CHCHPh)(NCPh)]OTf(11) catalyzes the methanolysis of benzonitrile in the presence of Na2CO3 to produce NH=C(OMe)Ph. Plausible mechanisms for these catalytic reactions are suggested with the amido and imino-ether complexes such as 4 and 5 being involved.
