Aluminum hydrides with radical-anionic and dianionic acenaphthene-1,2-diimine ligands
The reaction of 1,2-bis[(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene (dpp-bian) with LiAlH{sub 4} affords two products regardless of the solvent used (tetrahydrofuran or diethyl ether). These products were isolated as green and colorless crystals. Green crystals of the complex [(dpp-bian)Al(H){sub 2}Li(THF){sub 3}] (1) were obtained from tetrahydrofuran; colorless crystals of the complex [{dpp-bian(H_2)}Al(H){sub 2}Li(Et{sub 2}O){sub 2}] (2), from diethyl ether. The reactions of compound 1 with 2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol and benzophenone gave monohydrides [(dpp-bian)Al(H)(OC{sub 6}H{sub 2}-2,6-Bu{sub 2}{sup t}-4-Me)][Li(THF){sub 4}] (3) and [(dpp-bian)Al(H)(OCHPh{sub 2})- Li(THF){sub 2}] (4), respectively. The diamagnetic aluminum hydride [(dpp-bian)AlH(THF)] (5) was synthesized by the reaction of dichloroalane HAlCl{sub 2} (in situ) with the disodium salt of dpp-bian in THF; the paramagnetic hydride [(dpp-bian)AlH(Cl)] (6) containing the dpp-bian radical anion was synthesized by the reaction of the monosodium salt (dpp-bian)Na with monochloroalane H{sub 2}AlCl (in situ) in diethyl ether. The reaction of compound 6 with tert-butyllithium gives the complex [(dpp-bian)AlBu{sup t}(Et{sub 2}O)] (7). Diamagnetic derivatives 1—5 and 7 were characterized by {sup 1}Н NMR spectroscopy; paramagnetic compound 6, by ESR spectroscopy. The molecular structures of compounds 1—7 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
