The reactions of alkyl isocyanides (RNC) and aryl isocyanides (ArNC) with the rhenium halides K2ReX6 (X=Br or I) and Re3X9 (X=Cl, Br or I) have been investigated.When the K2ReX6 salts are treated with neat isocyanide at room temperature, or with isocyanid

Treatment of the dinuclear quadruply bonded complexes Re2(O2CR)4Cl2 (R = CH3 or C6H5) with alkyl isocyanides (RNC; R = CMe3 or C6H11) affords solutions from which salts of the [Re(CNR)6]+ cations can be isolated in good yield. While [Re(CNR)6]+ is inert to substitution by monodentate tertiary phosphines, routes to species of the type [Re(CNR)4(PR3)2]+ are afforded by (a) the reductive cleavage of the triply bonded complexes Re2Cl4(PR3)4 by RNC ligands or (b) the reductive elimination of H2 from the polyhydride complexes ReH7(PR3)2 and ReH5(PR3)2L in the presence of an excess of RNC. In contrast to the preceding reductive-cleavage reductions, the halide-rich salts (n-Bu4N)2Re2X8 (X = Cl or Br) react with tert-butyl isocyanide to give mononuclear seven-coordinate rhenium(III) species [Re(CNCMe3)5X2]+, which have been isolated as their PF6- salts. The mixed isocyanide-halide-phosphine complexes of rhenium(III) [Re(CNCMe3)4(PEtPh2)Cl2]PF 6 and [Re(CNCMe3)3(dppe)Cl2]PF6 (dppe = Ph2PCH2CH2PPh2) are likewise prepared by isocyanide cleavage of quadruply bonded Re2Cl6(PEtPh2)2 and dimeric Re2Cl6(dppe)2 (the latter containing Re(μ-Cl)2Re bridges but no Re-Re bond). The spectroscopic and electrochemical properties of these complexes are reported, and the significance of the cleavage reactions by π-acceptor ligands (such as RNC) is discussed in the context of their constituting an important synthetic route to mononuclear transition-metal complexes.
