Abstract
Three-coordinate organometallic complexes are rare, especially with the prototypical methyl ligand. Using a hindered, rigid bidentate ligand (L), it is possible to create 12-electron methyliron(II) and 13-electron methylcobalt(II) complexes. These complexes are thermally stable, and (1)H NMR spectra suggest that the low coordination number is maintained in solution. Attempts to create the 14-electron LNiCH(3) led instead to the three-coordinate nickel(I) complex LNi(THF). Single crystals of LMCH(3) are isomorphous with the new three-coordinate chloride complexes LNiCl and LCoCl. Along with the recently reported LFeCl (Smith, J. M.; Lachicotte, R. J.; Holland, P. L. Chem. Commun. 2001, 1542), these are the only examples of three-coordinate iron(II), cobalt(II), and nickel(II) complexes with terminal chloride ligands, enabling the systematic evaluation of the effect of coordination number and metal identity on M-Cl bond lengths. Electronic structure calculations predict the ground states of the trigonal complexes.
