New O- and N-N-Bridging Complexes of Tc(V), the Role of the Nitrogen Atom Position in Aromatic Rings: Reaction Mechanism, Spectroscopy, DTA, XRD and Hirshfeld Surface Analysis

In this work, O- and N-N-bridging complexes of technetium (V), previously known only for rhenium, were obtained for the first time. Tc(V) complexes with pyridazine (pyd), 1,2,4-triazole (trz), 3,5-dimethylpyrazole (dmpz) and pyrimidine (pyr) were obtained. In three complexes [{TcOCl₂}₂(μ-O)(μ-pyd)₂], [{TcOCl₂}₂(μ-O)(μ-trz)₂]·Htrz·Cl and [{TcO(dmpz)₄}(μ-O)(TcOCl₄)] two technetium atoms are linked by a Tc-O-Tc bond, and in the first two, Tc atoms are additionally linked by a Tc-N-N-Tc bond through the nitrogen atoms of the aromatic rings. We determined the role of nitrogen atom position in the aromatic ring and the presence of substituents on the formation of such complexes. For the first time, a reaction mechanism for the formation of such complexes was proposed. This article details the crystal structures of four new compounds. The work describes in detail the coordination of Tc atoms in the obtained structures and the regularities of the formation of crystal packings. The spectroscopic properties of the obtained compounds and their mother solutions were studied. The decomposition temperatures of the described complexes were determined. An assumption was made about the oligomerization of three-bridged complexes based on the results of mass spectrometry. Through the analysis of non-valent interactions in the structures, π-stacking, halogen-π and CH-π interactions were found. An analysis of the Hirshfeld surface for [{TcOCl₂}₂(μ-O)(μ-pyd)₂], [{TcOCl2}2(μ-O)(μ-trz)₂] and their rhenium analogues showed that the main contribution to the crystalline packing is made by interactions of the type Hal···H/H···Hal (45.4-48.9%), H···H (10.2-15.8%), and O···H/H···O (9.4-16.5%).

Pentachloro(pyrazine)rhenate(IV) complex as precursor of heterobimetallic pyrazine-containing Re(IV)2M(II) (M = Ni, Cu) species: synthesis, crystal structures and magnetic properties

Three novel Re(IV) mononuclear complexes of formulae NBu4[ReC15(pyz)] (1), NH2Me2[ReCl5(pyz)] (2) and NH4[ReCl5(pyz)].0.75H2O (3), (pyz being pyrazine; NBu4+ = tetra-n-butylammonium cation, NH2Me2+ = dimethylammonium cation and NH4+ = ammonium cation), were synthesized by ligand substitution reaction from [ReCl6]2- anion and pyrazine in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). In addition, two new heterobimetallic compounds, the salt namely [ReCl5(pyz)]2[Ni(cyclam)](4) (cyclam = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) and the heterotrinuclear [{ReCl5(mu-pyz)}2Cu(DMF)4] (5) complex, were prepared by using as precursor 1 and 3, respectively. Compounds 1-5 were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. 1-3 are made up of discrete [ReCl5(pyz)]- anions and NBu4 (1), NH2Me2+ (2) and NH4+ (3) cations. [ReCl5(pyz)]- unit interacts toward Ni(II) (4) and Cu(II) (5) metal ions through different modes. In 4 two [ReCl5(pyz)]- anions weakly interact with a [Ni(cyclam)]2+ cation through chloro atoms, while compound 5 is a heterotrinuclear pyrazine-bridged Re(IV)2Cu(II) complex made up of [ReCl5(pyz)]- anions and [Cu(DMF)4]2+ cations. The magnetic properties of 1-5 were investigated in the temperature range 1.9-300 K. The magnetic behaviour of 1 is that of a magnetically diluted Re(IV) complex with a large value of zero-field splitting of the ground state (/2D/ is ca. 18.8(1) cm(-1)), whereas those of 2 and 3 are typical of antiferromagnetically coupled systems exhibiting susceptibility maxima at 10 (2) and 12 K (3). Compound 4 shows antiferromagnetic interactions between Re(IV) metal ions, Ni(II) being diamagnetic (because of its square-planar geometry), while 5 exhibits a ferromagnetic coupling between Re(IV) and Cu(II) metal ions across the pyrazine bridges with a J(ReCu), value of +11.8(1) cm(-1).
