RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Syntheses, solid structures, and behavior in solution of [MI2(CO)3(pyrazole)2] complexes (M = Mo, W) A1 Paredes, Paloma A1 Lorenzo, Fernando A1 Bajo, Sonia A1 Cuéllar González, Elena A1 Strohmann, Carsten A1 Martín Álvarez, José Miguel A1 Miguel San José, Daniel A1 Villafañe González, Fernando K1 Pyrazole K1 Molibdeno K1 Isómeros AB [MI2(CO)3(pz*H)2] complexes (M = Mo, W; pz*H = pzH, dmpzH, indzH) have been synthesized and characterized in solid state and in solution. These heptacoordinated complexes present a capped octahedron geometry in the solid state where the azole ligands are always coordinated pseudo-cis, and the iodido ligands are coordinated either pseudo-trans (pzH complexes and molybdenum complex with indzH) or pseudo-cis (tungsten complex with dmpzH). Both isomers are found in the crystal structure of [WI2(CO)3(indzH)2]. The difference in energies between both isomers have been theoretically calculated and range between −2.9 and +1.0 kcal/mol. The complexes where the iodido ligands are coordinated pseudo-trans show unequivalent azoles in the NMR at low temperature while they undergo a dynamic process in solution which makes both heterocycles equivalent at room temperature. The other complexes display a dynamic behavior in solution where both heterocycles are equivalent both at room and at low temperatures.
