Intra- and inter-ion-pair protonic - Hydridic bonding in polyhydridobis(phosphine)rhenates

The hexahydridobis(phosphine)rhenate anions, [ReH6(PR3)2]- (PR3 = PCy3 ,P-i-Pr3, PPh3, PMe3) were generated by potassium hydride deprotonation of the neutral heptahydride conjugate acids (ReH7(PR3)2), isolated as their [K(18-crown-6)]+ and [K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)]+ salts, and characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Structures from single crystal X-ray diffraction were obtained for the [K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)]+ salts and these indicate the presence of short protonic - hydridic bonds involving the hydrides of the anions and the proton donor NH moieties of the cations. The structure of [K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)][ReH6(P-i-Pr3)2] adopts a one-dimensional zigzag chain with alternating cations and anions connected and held together by inter-ion N-H···Hx-Re interactions (x = 1 or 2). Short distances between the NH protons of the cations and hydrides of the anion ranging from 1.6 to 1.9 A are estimated for this complex. A different kind of chain structure is observed for [K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)][ ReH6(PMe3)2] in which the combined effects of inter-ion protonic - hydridic bonding (N-H···Hx-Re) and inter-ion electrostatic interactions (ReHx-···K+ ···Hx-Re), result in one-dimensional networks of alternating cations and anions, with the metals and hydrides occupying the interior and the organic moieties of the phosphine ligands and crown ether lining the exterior of cylindrical supramolecular assemblies. A combination of intra- and inter-ion protonic-hydridic and intra-ion-pair electrostatic interactions in [K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)][ReH6(PPh3)2] result in the formation of discrete two-dimensional {[K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)][ReH6(PPh3)2]} 4 tetramers. The PCy3 salt is disordered but appears to consist of isolated 1:1 ion pairs containing strong intra-ion-pair NH···HRe bonding. The solid-state IR spectra of the [K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)]+ salts show low-frequency shifts for the NH bands relative to [K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)][BPh4], and perturbed Re-H bands relative to those in the [K(18-crown-6)]+ salts. The magnitude of δvnNH is related to the basicity of the anion as indicated by the pKαTHF of the conjugate acid form (ReH7(PR3)2), which increases as PPh3 3 3 3. Solution 1H NMR, NOE, and T1 relaxation measurements of [K(1,10-diaza-18-crown-6)][ReH6(PPh3)2] indicate that these interactions also persist in toluene solutions of this compound.
REACTION OF (PPh3)2ReH7 WITH DIENES: PREPARATION AND SOME PROPERTIES OF TRIHYDRO η4-DIENE COMPLEXES OF RHENIU

L2ReH7 (L=PPh3) reacts smoothly with acyclic and cyclic dienes to give crystalline, air-stable, trihydrido-Η4-dienerhenium complexes L2(η4-diene)ReH3.The majority of these complexes are fluxional at room temperature; their NMR spectra suggest that at low temperature (-50 deg C) they are pentagonal bipyramidal, with the two phosphine ligands apical and the remaining ligands equatorial.Except for L2(η4-cyclopentadiene)ReH3, which readily loses dihydrogen to give L2(η5-C5H5)ReH, these diene trihydrides are thermally remarkably stable; L2(η4-cyclohexa-1,3-diene)ReH3 loses dihydrogen at >100 deg C to afford L2(η5-cyclohexadienyl)ReH2 and then L2(η6-C6H6)ReH, and L2(η4-butadiene)ReH3 and L2(η4-cycloocta-1,5-diene)ReH3 are stable in air up to 115 and 130 deg C, respectively.Protonation of the trihydrido-η4-diene complexes affords the corresponding saturated hydrocarbons and/or olefins.Hydrogenation of L2(η4-2,3-dimethylbutadiene)ReH3 regenerates the heptahydride L2ReH7.
