Unprecedented η3-M3 coordination mode in a terpyridine ligand

Abstract: The gold(I) complex [Au3(C6F5)3(eta3-Fcterpy)](Fcterpy = 4'-ferrocenyl-2,2'ratio6',2''-terpyridine) represents the first example of a terpyridine ligand bonded to three different metals. The aurophilic interactions present in the molecule may contribute to the overall stability of the system, as was shown by DFT calculations. The positive Mayer indices (0.152 and 0.138), as well as the magnitude of the binding interaction between terpy and the Au(I)L fragments, support this interpretation.

“…A chiral luminescent Au 16 ring has been reported by reaction of [Au 2 Cl 2 (m-dppm)] with K 2 (pippzdc) (pippzdc ¼ piperazine-1,4-dicarbodithiolate) which gives the tetramer [Au 4 (pippzdc)(dppm) 2 ] 4 [160]. Gold(I) complexes with polydentate nitrogen ligands are also known, such as with the ferrocenyl-terpyridine ligand (Figure 1.26a) in which the ligand acts as tridentate [176], or the tetranuclear derivative with 2,2 0 -bibenzimidazolate (Figure 1.26b) [177], or the complexes obtained in the reaction of trans-1,2-bis (4-pyridyl)ethylene with [Au 2 (O 2 CCF 3 ) 2 {m-(PPh 2 ) 2 (CH 2 ) n }] which gives with n ¼ 2 the cyclic compound and with n ¼ 3 or 4 one-dimensional linear or U-shaped polymers (Figure 1.26c) [178]. The meta and para isomers present different stoichiometries and structures such as [Au 3 (1,3-S 2 C 6 H 4 )(PPh 3 ) 3 ] þ , which shows a one-dimensional aggregate through head-to-tail aurophilic interactions or the Other types of polydentate ligands are those with different donor atoms that can be of the type P,C or N,C or S,S,C,C or P,N, and so on, [172][173][174][175].…”

“…(24) The crystal structures of half the Au I /Fe II complexes have been determined by X-ray diffraction methods, showing a typical linear environment for the gold(I) center, nearly eclipsed aromatic rings at iron, and none of them display intramolecular Au· · ·Fe interactions. [Au(C 6 F 5 )(FcCH 2 PPh 2 )] [154], [Au(C 6 F 5 ){Fc(EPh)PPh 2 }] (E = S, Se) [155] and [{Au(C 6 F 5 )} 3 ( 3 -Fcterpy)] [161] do not display Au· · ·Au interactions either (the shortest gold-gold distance in the former is 5.560Å), but there are intramolecular Au· · ·Au interactions of 3.0678(6) and 3.1559(7)Å in the terpy derivative that may contribute to the overall stability of the system (Fig. 19a), as was shown by DTF calculations [161], and intermolecular aurophilic contacts (see Table 1) that led to association into pairs in [Au(C 6 F 5 )(Fcpy)] [151] (Fig.…”

“…Some CÀHÁ Á ÁAu contacts have also been described in gold complexes with ferrocenyl derivatives as ligands, such as those included in Table 5.2 containing 1-(diphenylphosphino)-1 0 -(phenylsulfanyl)ferrocene, 1-(diphenylphosphino)-1 0 -(phenylselenyl)ferrocene [41], (ferrocenylmethyl)phosphine [59], (ferrocenylmethyl) pyrazole [60] or 4 0 -ferrocenyl-2,2 0 :6 0 ,2 00 -terpyridine [61]. Figure 5.30 displays the secondary contacts (CÀHÁ Á ÁAu and CÀHÁ Á ÁCl) in [AuCl(PPh 2 CH 2 Fc)] [59], which give rise to layers in the solid state.…”
