Isocyanide insertion reactions. The reaction of Mn(CO)/sub 4/CNCH/sub 3/ anion with iodomethane and the crystal and molecular structure of (CH/sub 3/)N == C(CH/sub 3/)(CH/sub 3/)C == N(CH/sub 3/)Mn(CO)/sub 3/Mn(CO)/sub 3/
The cyclic compounds (CH/sub 3/)N == C(CH/sub 3/)(CH/sub 3/)C == N(CH/sub 3/)Mn(CO)/sub 3/(I) was obtained from the reaction of Mn(CO)/sub 4/(CNCH/sub 3/)/sup -/ with CH/sub 3/I. The product was analyzed crystallographically. Crystal data: space group P1-bar, a = 7.352 (2) A, b = 8.863 (2) A, c = 12.324 (6) A, ..cap alpha.. = 83.44 (4)/sup 0/, ..beta.. = 85.66 (3)/sup 0/, ..gamma.. = 72.45 (2)/sup 0/, Z = 2, V = 760.0 (6) A/sup 3/, rho/sub calcd/ = 1.70 g/cm/sup 3/. The molecule contains a five-membered metallacyclic ring consisting of one manganese atom and a tetramethyl-..cap alpha..-diimine ligand. The latter is bonded to the manganese atom via the nitrogen atoms. The five-membered ring is bonded via the two imine ..pi.. bonds and the manganese atom to a manganese tricarbonyl group. The Mn-Mn bonding distance is 2.615 (1) A. The molecule is formally isoelectronic and isostructural to the cyclic RC == C(R)(R)C == C(R)Fe(CO)/sub 3/Fe(CO)/sub 3/ molecules which have been widely discussed in the development of the theories of semibridging carbonyl ligands. The relaionship of I to these molecules is discussed.
