Carbene Complexes of Stannocenes

Abstract: Several stannocene carbene complexes, 3a-3g, were synthesized and examined in solution by NMR spectroscopy and in the solid state by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In this new class of metallocene carbene complexes, coordination of the carbene to the tin atom was found to be comparably weak and mostly due to attractive dispersion forces, as indicated by density functional theory calculations. Furthermore, coordination of the N-heterocyclic carbenes results in a weakening of the Sn-Cp bonds, making these com… Show more

“…As described earlier, the stannocene and plumbocene NHC complexes exist in a dissociative equilibrium in solution at room temperature, but can be isolated as crystalline solids at low temperatures. In addition to the already reported stannocene-and plumbocene-NHC complexes, 1a-e, 2b-d, 3b, 9,13 we were able to isolate and structurally characterize the 1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazole-2-ylidene-stannocene adduct, 2a, and, more significantly, 1,3-dimesitylimidazole-2-ylidene-plumbocene complexes 3a,c (Figure 1). The latter represent rare examples of bis(cyclopentadienyl)lead(II) carbene complexes and allow for structural comparison to their previously reported tin analogues.…”

“…This goes in line with experimental observations that 1c is only marginally stable at room temperature and decomposes within minutes to hours in solution, while 2c is stable at ambient conditions for longer periods. 9 Lead complexes show stronger bonded NHC ligands than the tin complexes regardless the bond distances are longer. Thus, the bond length does not directly correlate with the bondstrength.…”
