Abstract top

In the title compound, [Co(CH3)2(C13H13O2)(C3H9P)2], the Co is at the centre of a distorted octahedron, with two methyl groups trans to the chelating 2-formyl-4-phenylcyclohexen-1-olato ligand forming the equatorial plane and two trimethylphosphine groups in the axial positions. The cyclohexene is partially disordered equally over two positions.

Comment top

Reaction of substituted enolated malonic dialdehydes (enol-form: b-keton-aldehyde) with [CoMe3(PMe3)3] was recently reported (Li et al., 2005). 2-Hydroxy-5-phenyl-cyclohex-1-enecarbaldehyde reacts with [CoMe3(PMe3)3] (Scheme) by elimination of methane and trimethylphosphine utilizing both the phenolato and the keto-oxygen functions to afford the hexacoordinate title cobalt(III) complex as red solids that are soluble in pentane or diethyl ether. Single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction analysis of title compound were obtained.

A view of the molecular structure is given in Figure 1. Cobalt atom displays an octahedral coordination with two equatorial cis-methyl groups (C20 and C21) and two axial trimethylphosphines as well as a bidentate ligand. The angle P1–Co–P2 of 174.59 (5) implies a slight distortion from an ideal octahedron. The substituted salicylaldehyde ligands have Co—O bond lengths of Co1—O1 1.987 (2), Co1—O2 1.980 (3). The chelate ring is planar with the largest deviation from the plane being 0.030 (3)Å at O2.

Experimental top

Standard vacuum techniques were used in manipulations of volatile and air-sensitive material. 2-Hydroxy-5-phenyl-cyclohex-1-enecarbaldehyde (958 mg, 4.74 mmol) in diethyl ether (20 mL) was combined with [CoMe3(PMe3)3] (1,810 mg, 5.45 mmol) in diethyl ether(40 ml) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred for 20 h. During this period the solution turned red. The volatiles were removed in vacuo and the residue was extracted with pentane. Crystallization at −20 °C afforded red microcrystals.

Refinement top

All H atoms were fixed geometrically and treated as riding on their parent atoms with C—H = 0.93Å (aromatic), 0.96Å (methyl), 0.97Å (methylene) and 0.98Å (methine) with Uiso(H) = xUeq(C), x having the value 1.2 or 1.5(methylene).

The cyclohexene is partially stastically distributed over two positions. This disordered moiety was treated using the restraints available in SHELXL97 (SAME and PART instructions). The value of the occupancy factor, 1/2, was determined in the first stages of the refinement. The thermal displacement parameters for the disordered atoms were restrained using equal Uij constraint.

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
