Preparation of [(ttp)Ru(CO)] and the diaza compound N2═C(3—CF3C6H4)2 was carried out according to the procedure of Collman et al. (1984) and the modified method for N2═CPh2 (Smith & Howard, 1955), respectively. A solution of [(ttp)Ru(CO)] (0.50 g, 0.63 mmol) and a small excess amount of N2═C(3—CF3C6H4)2 in CH2Cl2 (50 ml) was refluxed under a nitrogen atmosphere for 3 h. After removal of the solvent by rotary evaporation, the residue was chromatographed on a silica-gel column with toluene. A dark-red band was collected and evaporated to dryness. Recrystallization from a CH2Cl2-hexane solution gave air-stable dark-purple crystals of (I) (89%). Analysis found: C 70.35, H 4.03, N 5.09%; calculated for C66H44F6N4Ru: C 70.58, H 4.14, N 5.23%. Is C66 correct? C63 given in formula below. 1H NMR (CD2Cl2, 500 MHz, δ, p.p.m.): 2.66 (s, 12H), 3.04 (d, 2H), 3.27 (s, 2H), 6.30 (t, 2H), 6.73 (d, 2H), 7.49 (d, 4H), 7.52 (d, 4H), 7.71 (d, 4H), 7.90 (d, 4H), 8.41 (s, 8H). 19F NMR (CD2Cl2, 470 MHz, δ, p.p.m.): −62.88 (s). UV-vis (CH2Cl2): λmax (log ε) 398 (4.98), 427 s h (4.66), 537 (3.93).
All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with C—H distances of 0.96 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for the methyl groups or 0.93 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for the other H atoms.
At a late stage in the refinement, rotational disorder of the CF3 group was suggested by the rather large Ueq values (0.18–0.22 Å2) of the fluorine atoms and some peaks (0.29—0.35 e Å−3) in the differnce Fourier map. Accordingly, the CF3 group was assumed to be disordered in the two orientations. The fluorine atoms of the major components, F1A, F2A and F3A, were refined anisotropically, and those of the minor, F1B, F2B and F3B, were treated isotropically. The occupancy factors were refined to 0.846 (16) for the major, and 0.154 (16) for the minor.

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. |

Carbenyl metalloporphyrin chemistry has been developed since the first synthesis of [(tpp)Fe(CCl2)] (where H2tpp is 5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin; Mansuy et al., 1977). Ruthenium(II)-porphyrin-carbene complexes have been reported as effective catalysts for the production of alkenes from ethyl diazoacetate (Collman et al., 1993). In order to investigate the catalytic mechanism, it seems important to isolate a five-coordinate ruthenium(II) porphyrin complex, as well as a six-coordinate adduct with a Lewis base. Recently, we studied the structural details of methanol- or pyridine-ligated six-coordinate ruthenium(II)-porphyrin-carbene complexes obtained from CH2Cl2 solution containing the relevant Lewis bases (Kawai et al., 2002; Harada et al., 2003). The title compound, [Ru(ttp){C(3—CF3C6H4)2}], (I) (where H2ttp is 5,10,15,20-tetra-p-tolylporphyrin), having a trifluoromethyl-substituted carbene ligand to facilitate examination by 19F NMR spectroscopy in solution, has been crystallized from CH2Cl2-hexane and is herein compared with its pyridine adduct [Ru(ttp){C(3—CF3C6H4)2}(pyridine)], (II) (Harada et al., 2003). \sch
The molecular structure of (I) features a square-pyramidally five-coordinate Ru atom, as shown in Fig. 1, in contrast with the octahedrally six-coordinate Ru atom in (II). In (I), the Ru—C25 bond coincides with a crystallographic twofold axis, so that the two 3-CF3 groups of the carbene ligand take an anti conformation, adopting a face-to-face arrangement with the porphyrin plane. The Ru═C bond length of 1.841 (6) Å in (I) is obviously shorter than the value of 1.868 (3) Å in (II). Based on UV-vis and 1H NMR spectroscopy, Galardon et al. (1998) described how excessive addition of pyridine to a ruthenium(II)-porphyrin-carbene complex caused dissociation of the carbene ligand. Destabilization of the Ru═C bond by the pyridine ligand seems consistent with the longer Ru═C bond length in (II), due to the trans influence of the pyridine ligand.
The angles about the carbene C25 atom in (I) [C26—C25—C26i 116.1 (5)° and Ru—C25—C26 121.9 (3)°; symmetry code: (i) y, x, −z Is this correct?] are close to the value of 120° for an ideal sp2 configuration. The porphyrin ring is in a distorted saddle conformation, as reported for two other five-coordinate ruthenium(II)-porphyrin-carbene complexes, [Ru(P*)(CPh2)]·2CH2Cl2, (III), and [Ru(P*){(C(Ph)CO2CH2CH═CH2}]·3CH2Cl2, (IV) {H2P* is 5,10,15,20-tetrakis[(1S,4R,5R,8S)-1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8-octahydro- 1,4:5,8-dimethanoanthracen-9-yl]porphyrin; Che et al., 2001}. In (I), the largest deviations from the C20N4 least-squares plane are −0.118 (6) and 0.060 (5) Å for atoms C3 and C7, respectively. The Ru atom is displaced out of the N4 least-squares plane by 0.230 (3) Å toward the carbene ligand, and this is larger than the deviations of 0.19 and 0.22 Å in (III) and (IV), respectively.
