A new rhenium nitrosyl complex has been synthesized and characterized by IR, electronic and "P NMR spectroscopy and magnetochemical measurements. Its electronic structure has been determined (Dq = 3333, Ds = -4732 and Dt = 387 cm-'). The crystal and molecular structure of [ReCI3(NO)(OPPh&] has been solved by the heavy atom method and refined anisotropically to R =0.466 for 3032 unique observed reflections. The title compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c, with a = 13.887(2), b= 13.154(2), c = 19.629(4)A, p=96.78(2)" and Z = 4. The Re atom is of six-coordinate distorted octahedral configuration and the linear nitrosyl ligand is trans to one of triphenylphosphine oxide molecules. The OPPh3 groups of [ReCI3(NO)(OPPh3)2] are in cis positions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
