By the reaction of n> (PR'3=PPh3, n=2: or PMe2Ph, n=3) with the bulky thiol 2,4,6-tri-isopropylbenzenethiol (Htipt) under varying conditions, the nitrido-complexes , Na2*2thf (thf=tetrohydrofuran), and have been isolated.The last is a paramagnetic rhenium(VI) complex derived from the aerial oxidation of the rhenium(V) anion 2-.The arylimidorhenium(V) complexes (R'=Ph, C6H4OMe-4, or C6H4Me-4) can be isolated by the reaction of with Htipt and triethylamine, whereas N2 loss occurs with PhS-.The complexes (R '=Me or But) have been prepared by reaction of K2 with Htipt and triethylamine in R 'CN as solvent.These bis(nitrile) complexes have a trigonal-bipyramidal structure with equatorial thiolate ligands.They react with CO to give, sequentially, two isomers of and then which have analogous structures.Analogues of some of the complexes, containing 2,4,6-trimethylbenzenethiolate or 2,6-di-isopropylbenzenethiolate ligands, are also described.
