Popis: | The dinitrogen complex Cp*Re(PMe3)2(N2) (1) undergoes protonation at rhenium but not at the rhenium-bound dinitrogen ligand under conditions described here. Protonation by using CF3CO2H, HBF4·OEt2, or CF3SO3H at 213 K afforded the respective rhenium hydrido dinitrogen complexes cis-[Cp*ReH(N2)(PMe3)2][CF3CO2] (cis-2(CF3CO2)), cis-[Cp*ReH(N2)(PMe3)2][BF4] (cis-2(BF4)), and cis-[Cp*ReH(N2)(PMe3)2][CF3SO3] (cis-2(CF3SO3). These complexes isomerized smoothly to the corresponding trans isomers as the temperature was raised to 273 K. The cis and trans isomers have been fully characterized by using a combination of IR and 1H, 31P, and 15N NMR spectroscopy, with the dinitrogen ligand singly-labeled in either the Nα or Nβ positions. The trans isomers are all thermally unstable at room temperature, but trans-2(CF3CO2) is significantly more stable than its analogs, indicating that the counteranion may play a role in stabilizing these cationic rhenium hydrido dinitrogen complexes. |
