Aqueous organometallic chemistry. 2. {sup 1}H NMR spectroscopic, synthetic, and structural study of the chemo- and diastereoselective reactions of [Cp{sup *}Rh(H{sub 2}O){sub 3}]{sup 2+} with nitrogen ligands as a function of pH

The reactions of a new Cp{sup *}Rh aqua synthon, [Cp{sup *}Rh(H{sub 2}O){sub 3}]{sup 2+} (1), at acidic pH values (2-6) with aniline (2), pyridine (3), and L-phenylalanine (4) have provided interesting chemo- and diastereoselectivities as studied by {sup 1}H NMR, FAB/MS, and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The reaction of 2 and aqua complex 1, at pH values from 4 to 6, quantitatively provided [Cp{sup *}Rh({eta}{sup 6}-aniline)]{sup 2+} (5); the structure of 5 was unequivocally determined by a single-crystal X-ray analysis, which also showed an approximate 25% {eta}{sup 5} component. Compound 3 reacted with 1, at pH 2-6, to selectively provide [Cp{sup *}Rh({eta}{sup 1}-pyridine){sub n} (H{sub 2}O){sub 3-n}]{sup 2+} (n = 1-3) complexes 6a-c as a function of pH. Surprisingly, complex 1 reacted with 4, from pH 4 to 6, to provide only one diastereomer of the known cyclic trimer [(Cp{sup *}Rh)({mu}-{eta}{sup 1}-(OCO):{eta}{sup 2}-(N,OCO)-L-phe nylalanine)]{sub 3}{sup 3+} (7; S{sub C},S{sub C},S{sub C},S{sub Rh},S{sub Rh},S{sub Rh},) an example of a one-step, highly diastereoselective reaction in H{sub 2}O. 8 refs., 4 figs., 2 tabs.
