The new organocobalt complex CO2(CO)4(CF3C2CF3)2(CF3C2H) has been isolated from the reaction of hexafluorobut-2-yne with p-trifluoropropyne-hexacarbonyldicobalt. In addition, a second isomer of the known complex CO2(CO)4(CF3C2CF3)2(CF3C2H)2 has been isolated from the reaction of 3,3,3-tri-fluoropropyne with p-hexafluorobut-2-yne-hexacarbonyldicobalt. A detailed study of the 1H and 19F N.M.R. spectra of these and the related complexes Co2(C0)4- (CF3C2CF3)3 and CO2(CO)4(CF3C2H)3 has led to an assignment of the substituent arrangement in all of these complexes.

Treatment of pentacarbonyliron with pentafluorophenylacetylene has given the stable complex tricarbonyl-2,5-bis(pentafluorophenyl)cyclopentadienoneiron. There is no evidence of the formation of other structural isomers. The complex is also formed from pentafluorophenylaoetylene and nonacarbonyldiiron or dodecacarbonyltriiron. Two alkyne-cobalt complexes have been isolated from the interaction of octacarbonyldicobalt and pentafluorophenylacetylene. One of these is a bridging alkyne complex of molecular stoicheiometry Co2(CO)6(C6F6CCH); the second is a complex of formula Co3(CO)9(CCH2C6F5). The infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the complexes are given, and the probable structures of the compounds are deduced from these spectroscopic properties.

Reactions involving p-alkyne-hexacarbonyldioobalt complexes and an excess of an alkyne have been investigated systematically to determine some of the factors affecting the formation and stabilization of CO,(CO)~C,(CF,)~R,-, complexes. Systems have been studied in which the value of n has been varied through all values from 0 to 6. The new tris(a1kyne)tetracarbonyldioobalt complex CO,(CO),C,(CF,),(CH~)~- Hz, formed from Co,(CO),(CH,C,CH,) and an excess of CF,C=_CH, has been characterized by elementary and spectroscopic analysis. Tris(a1kyne)tetracarbonyldi- cobalt compIexes have not been isolated from the systems [Co,(CO),(CF3C,CF3)+2- CH,C=CCH,], [Co,(CO),(CF,C,CF,) + 2CH3CzCH], [Co,(CO),(CF,C,CH,) + 2CH3C~C- CH,], [Co,(CO),(CH,C,CH,) + 2CF3CKXF3], [Co,(CO),(CH3C,CH,) + 2CH3C~CCH3], and [Co,(CO),(CH3C,CH,)+2CH3C~CH]. Rather, significant amounts of various CF,- and/or CH,-substituted benzenes are obtained in these reactions. These sub- stituted benzenes are presumably formed by decomposition of unstable tris(a1kyne)- tetracarbonyldicobalt complexes. The accumulated results indicate that two principal factors influence the stability of the CO,(CO)~C,(CF,),R,-, complexes. Stable complexes are isolated only when (i) at least two CF, groups are incorporated as substituents in the C,-bridging fragment, and (ii) CF, substituents are attached to the two terminal carbon atoms of the bridging fragment.

The structure of the ion pair formed between Co(II) bistripyrazolylmethane ions and PF6− ions in acetonitrile solution has been investigated. Isotropic shifts observed in the 19F nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectra of the anion have been used for this purpose. It is concluded that the preferred position of the anion lies close to the symmetry axis of the cobalt complex and that a contact ion pair is involved. This result is contrasted with previous studies of second sphere coordination involving neutral molecules.

Abstract The reactions of tricarbonyl nitrosyl cobalt with tri-tert-butylphosphine, di(tert-butyl)-trimethylsilyl-, -germyl-, -stannylphosphine, tert-butyl-bis(trimethylsilyl)-, -(germyl)-, -(stannyl)phosphine, as well as with tris(trimethylsilyl)-, -(germyl)-, and -(stannyl-phosphine result in the elimination of one CO-ligand and the formation of corresponding dicarbonyl-nitrosyl-organometal phosphine cobalt complexes. The NMR spectra of the products are reported and discussed.

A new class of luminescent cyclometalated Ir(iii) complexes with readily tunable mechanochromic properties derived from the mechanically induced trans-to-cis isomerization have been developed.
