Popis: The stability of diastereomers of ReOX2(P~O)py complexes determined by the arrangement of the oxo-entity O=Re(–O~P) is manifested in molecular recognition and crystallization behavior [X = Cl, Br, I; P~O = (OCMe2CMe2O)POCMe2CMe2O(1–); py = pyridine]. With X = Cl and Br both chiral cis [OC-6–52] and achiral trans [OC-6–15] complexes can be obtained concomitantly, while for X = I only a trans complex can be afforded. Molecular structures were characterized using NMR IR and UV/Vis spectroscopic methods with the aid of DFT computational analysis and were ultimately corroborated by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. These analyses revealed that the most stable diastereomers involve an O=Re(–O~P) oxo arrangement in an axial disposition reinforced with a phosphorus ligating atom mutually cis due to extensive π-bonding both for chiral cis and achiral trans complexes, regardless of whether X = Cl, Br, or I. However, the disparate intramolecular geometry either cis or trans in the solid state results in enantiomorphic crystals related to space group P212121 (X = Cl, Br) or crystals pertinent to the centrosymmetric framework P21/c (X = Cl, Br, I), respectively. Thoughtful analysis of crystal structures reveals a supramolecular architecture due to intermolecular forces involving hydrogen bonding and electric dipole–dipole interactions (among other contact interactions). Thus, chiral cis complexes (X = Cl, Br) show helical crystal packing that succeeds in spontaneous resolution, while trans stereoisomers (X = Cl, Br, I) do not and rather exhibit a zig-zag supramolecular framework.
