Popis: High yield syntheses of neutral and cationic aminocarbyne complexes of chromium-bearing isocyanide ligands are reported. Neutral complexes of the type Br(CO)2(RNC)2CrCNiPr2(R = Et(3a); R =tBu (3b)) are obtained from Br(CO)2(pic)2CrCNiPr2 (2) (pic = γ-picoline) by exchange of the γ-picoline ligands with RNC. Complex 3b reacts with tBuNC in toluene at 60°C to give the monocarbonyl derivative Br(CO)(tBuNC)3CrCNiPr2 (4b). Formation of cationic aminocarbyne complexes is favoured in polar solvents as demonstrated by the reaction of 3a or 3b with RNC in refluxing CH2Cl2, which leads exclusively to [(RNC)4(CO)CrCNiPr2]Br (R = Et (5a); R = tBu (5b)). Thermal decarbonylation of 5b with tBuNC in refluxing tetrahydrofuran (THF) affords the cationic aminocarbyne complex [(tBuNC)5CrCNiPr2]Br (7b). Similarly, 3b is converted with TlPF6 and tBuNC to [(tBuNC)3(CO)2CrCNiPr2]PF6 (6b), which reacts with tBuNC in refluxing THF to give [(tBuNC)5CrCNiPr2]PF6 (7bt').
