Mhv. Huynh et al., Preparation of heteroatom compounds by stepwise atom/group transfer in cis- and trans-[Os-VI(tPY)(Cl)(2)(N)](+), INORG CHEM, 40(20), 2001, pp. 5062
Rapid 2e(-) N- transfer reactions occur between both cis- and trans-[Os-VI(
tpy)(Cl)(2)(N)](+) and Me2C6H3SH to give cis- and trans-[Os-IV(tpy)(Cl)(2)(
NS(H)C6H3Me2)](+) with retention of stereo chemistry. These complexes under
go further reactions With PPh3 or p-MeOC6H4NH2 by net 2e(-), NSC6H3Me22- gr
oup transfer reactions to give the solvento complexes, cis- and trans- [Os-
II(tpy)(Cl)(2)(NCCH3)], and the organic products, Ph3PNSC6H3Me2 and p-MeOC6
H4N(H)NS(H)C6H3Me2, respectively. The sequential atom/group transfer reacti
ons at the nitrido nitrogen atom provide a new stepwise synthetic route to
PNS and NNS heteroatom compounds.
