Abstract The title compounds were prepared from chloro(organophosphine)metal(I) complexes and the urea homologues SeC(NH2)2 and SC(NHMe)2 in good yields. Recrystallization of [Ph3,PAg{SeC(NH2)2}]+Cl- from DMF/CH2Cl2 leads in low yield to the dinuclear complex [{µ2-SeC(NH2)2}Ag{SeC(NH2)2}2]22+2Cl- • 4DMF. The crystal structure reveals short Ag-Ag contacts and unexpectedly acute angles at the bridging selenium atom. The crystal structure of [Ph3PAu{SC(NHMe)2}]+Cl- • SC(NHMe)2 shows short N•••Cl and N•••S contacts that probably correspond to hydrogen bonding.

Mononuclear cobalt(0) complexes containing diolefin and trimethylphosphane ligands Co(cycloocta-1,5-diene)(PMe3)2 and Co[(CH2=CHMe2Si)2O](PMe3)2 are obtained from CoCl2 by reaction with magnesium in the presence of the ligands or by substitution of cobalt(olefin)tris- (trimethylphosphane) with diolefin. Chemical and spectroscopic properties confirm the para- magnetic valence state of the compounds in solution. An X-Ray crystal structure determination of Co[(CH2=CHMe2Si)2O](PMe3)2 shows a tetrahedral arrangement of ligand functions around the cobalt atom. With butadiene a diamagnetic dinuclear complex [Co(C4H6)(PMe3)3]2 is obtained containing π-allyl co-ordination of two Co(PMe3)3 units to a linear dimer of butadiene

[FeL(MeOH)Cl]2 (L = N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)salicylaldimine) was synthesized and its crystal structure determined, [C27H20N 2O5Cl2Fe2], monoclinic, space group P21/c, a = 9.528(1), b = 7.684(1), c = 18.365(2) Å, β = 109.83(1)°, V = 1264.8 Å3, Z = 2. Two identical [FeL(MeOH)Cl] fragments, related by an inversion centre, are combined by the two bridging O atoms, to form a binuclear unit. The iron(III) centers are separated by 3.163(2) Å and weakly antiferromagnetically coupled (J = -8 .0 (1 ) cm-1), which follows from temperature - dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements in the range 4.2 to 288 K. The effective magnetic moment per iron(III) is μeff = 7.4 μB at 288 K

Addition of copper(II) acetate to octaethyl(meso-hydroxy)porphyrin (H2OEPOH) in THF under a dinitrogen atmosphere produces CuII(OEPOH), which has been isolated as red crystals and shown to have a meso-hydroxyporphyrin structure by UV-vis and EPR spectroscopy. CuII(OEPOH) undergoes oxidation by dioxygen to form a novel dinuclear copper complex {CuII(OEPOC(O)OEB)CuII}. This dinuclear complex is composed of a copper(II) meso-substituted porphyrin portion (with a planar CuN4 unit), which is attached through an ester linkage to a helical copper(II) tetrapyrrole that has been ring-opened through oxidative cleavage of a second molecule of CuII(OEPOH). The oxidative ring-opening reaction resembles that of natural heme catabolism but is arrested at a stage where the oxidized meso-carbon is still appended to the helical open tetrapyrrole. A mechanism is suggested for this process.Key words: copper porphyrin, crystal structure, porphyrin oxidation, linear tetrapyrrole, hydroxy-porphyrin, oxophlorin.
