Organocobalt(III) complexes with Schiff bases derived from a β -diketone bearing both an alkyl and an aryl group have been prepared. The template syntheses using benzoylacetone and ethylenediamine as complexing agents provide a route to alkylcobalt chelates with the corresponding tri- and tetradentate Schiff bases. However, if a β -diketone with two aryl groups, e.g. dibenzoylmethane, was employed as the starting ketoenol component, no organometallic products were detected; a new mixed-ligand ‘inorganic’ chelate of cobalt(II), [Co{O=C(Ph)CH=C(Ph)O} 2 (en)], was isolated instead. Its structure as well as that of one of the alkylcobalt complexes with a tridentate Schiff base composed of benzoylacetone and ethylenediamine have been established by X-ray techniques. The current scope of the template synthesis of alkylcobalt complexes with Schiff bases is summarized. |
