Ambient-Stable Bis-Azoaromatic-Centered Diradical [(L)M(L)] Complexes of Rh(III): Synthesis, Structure, Redox, and Spin-Spin Interaction.

Bis-azoaromatic electron traps, viz. 2-(2-pyridylazo)azoarene 1, have been synthesized by colligating electron-deficient pyridine and azoarene moieties, and they act as apposite proradical templates for the formation of stable open-shell diradical complexes [(1)Rh(1)] ([2]), starting from the low-valent electron reservoir [Rh]. The less stable monoradical [Rh(1)Cl(PPh)] (3) has also been isolated as a minor product.

Iridium-mediated C-S bond activation and transformation: organoiridium(III) thioether, thiolato, sulfinato and thiyl radical compounds. Synthesis, mechanistic, spectral, electrochemical and theoretical aspects.

An attractive methodology, single-electron transfer (SET) reductive cleavage of the C-S bond mediated by a metal in the presence of the external stimuli PPh3, has been applied to the kinetically inert IrCl3 in order to synthesize the thiolato complex [Ir(III)(L(S))Cl(PPh3)2] 3 from precursor thioether complexes [Ir(III)(L(SR))Cl2(PPh3)] (R = alkyl) 2. The aforesaid cleavage process in association with (arene)C-H activation furnishes a new class of organosulfur compounds of iridium(III). The thiolato chelate 3 displays a reversible oxidative wave at 0.

RhCl3-assisted C-H and C-S bond scissions: isomeric self-association of organorhodium(iii) thiolato complex. synthesis, structure, and electrochemistry.

The ligating properties of alkyl 2-(phenylazo)phenyl thioether 1 (HL(R); R = Me, CH(2)Ph) toward Rh(III) have been examined. A novel hexacoordinated orthometalated rhodium(III) thiolato complex trans-[Rh(L)Cl(PPh3)2] 5 has been synthesized from 1 and RhCl(3).3H(2)O in the presence of excess PPh(3) via in situ C(sp(2))-H and C(sp(3))-S bond scissions, which is the first example for a coordination compound of [L](2-).
