Notizen:
Dinuclear and polynuclear metal complexes with octahedral centers coordinated to di- or polydentate ligands are often obtained as complicated mixtures of various stereoisomers. Stereospecific synthesis of such species is therefore of high current interest. Chiral derivatives of pyridine can be used for this purpose. Dinuclear μ-chloro-bridged RhIII complexes with two didentate, cyclometalated thienylpyridine-type ligands at each metal center are formed stereoselectively when pinene groups are fused to the pyridine rings. The two octahedral RhIII centers have homochiral configurations, ΔΔ and ΛΛ. The heterochiral diastereomer ΔΛ is not observed. With (8R,10R)-2-(2′-thienyl)-4,5-pinenopyridine [Hth4,5-(R,R)ppy] the ΔΔ to ΛΛ ratio is 9:1 when the separation eluent contains NaCl. Modeling the ΛΛ and the ΔΛ isomers of the dinuclear species shows crowding of the pinene groups in both cases; however, the strain can be released by relatively small distortions only in the case of the ΛΛ isomer. NO3- cleaves the dichloro bridge, yielding the mononuclear species Δ[Rh(L2)2(NO3)] (2) in a completely stereoselective manner when NaCl is replaced by KNO3 in the eluent mixture. The molecular structure has been determined by X-ray structure analysis for both the ΔΔ and the mononuclear complex Δ[Rh(L2)2(NO3)] (2) in order to confirm the configuration at the metal center. 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and CD spectra were measured and the latter shows that the CD activity is solely due to the chirality at the metal center.
