Starting originally from [NEt{sub 4}]{sub 2}[ReBr{sub 3}] (1), the three novel complexes [NEt{sub 4}][ReBr{sub 2}(PTA)(CO){sub 3}] (2), [ReBr(PTA){sub 2}(CO){sub 3}] (3a), and [Re(PTA){sub 3}(CO){sub 3}]PF{sub 6} (4) (PTA = 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane) were prepared and characterized by IR, {sup 1}H, {sup 13}C, and {sup 31}P NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. These complexes are the first representatives of mixed carbonyl/PTA complexes of an element of the manganese row. All substitution reactions have been performed under aerobic conditions at ambient temperature and the yields were in all the cases high. The disubstituted complex was isolated as the neutral species 3a and as the dicationic species [ReBr(PTAH){sub 2}(CO){sub 3}]Br{sub 2}, 3b, which is protonated at one amine group of each of the two PTA ligands. The substitution reaction leading to the formation of 3a was performed in H{sub 2}O, methanol and DMSO/methanol (4:1) and the reaction was followed using {sup 31}PNMR techniques. These experiments revealed that the number and concentration of intermediate species during the substitution reaction are strongly dependent on the solvent system. Furthermore due to a completely different solubility behavior of 3a and 3b, a fully reversible phase transfer of the disubstituted complex from the organic (THF) to the aqueous layer (2 M NaBr) and back could be induced by simply changing the pH of the aqueous phase. In the {sup 31}P NMR experiment, the existence of the monoprotonated species [ReBr(PTA)(PTAH)(CO){sub 3}]Br (3c) could also be detected. X-ray data for the complexes are given.
