Chemistry of trivalent uranium metallocenes: electron-transfer reactions with carbon disulfide. Formation of ((RC/sub 5/H/sub 4/)/sub 3/U)/sub 2/(. mu. -eta/sup 1/,eta/sup 2/-CS/sub 2/)
The trivalent uranium metallocenes (MeC/sub 5/H/sub 4/)/sub 3/U x THF and (Me/sub 3/SiC/sub 5/H/sub 4/)/sub 3/U react with CS/sub 2/ to form the binuclear U(IV) complexes ((RC/sub 5/H/sub 4/)/sub 3/U)/sub 2/(..mu..-eta/sup 1/,eta/sup 2/-CS/sub 2/) (1, R = Me; 2, R = SiMe/sub 3/). Crystals of 1 are monoclinic, P2/sub 1//n, with a = 14.127 (4) A, b = 14.182 (4) A, c = 8.123 (2) A, and ..beta.. = 92.36 (3)/sup 0/ at 23/sup 0/C; for Z = 2 the calculated density is 2.097 g/cm/sup 3/. The structure was refined by full-matrix least-squares to a conventional R factor of 0.025, for 1402 data with F/sup 2/ > 2 sigma (F/sup 2/). The central carbon atom of the complex is disordered across a center of symmetry. The geometry about the CS/sub 2/ ligand (U-S = 2.973 (3) A and U-C = 2.53 (2) A), as well as NMR and susceptibility data, is consistent with two full one-electron transfers into the CS/sub 2/. There is no measurable magnetic interaction between the paramagnetic ions to 5 K.
