A Twisted Tetragold Cyclophane from a Fused Bis-Imidazolindiylidene
journal contribution
posted on 2019-12-11, 19:36 authored by Ana Gutiérrez-Blanco, Susana Ibáñez, F. Ekkehardt Hahn, Macarena Poyatos, Eduardo PerisThe reaction between an angular bis-imidazolidinium salt
and [AuCl(SMe)2] allowed the preparation of a discrete
digold complex, with
a rigid angular bridging bis-imidazolindiylidene ligand. This complex
reacts with a diethynylcarbazole to afford a tetragold cyclophane
that contains two bis-imidazolindiylidenes and two carbazolyl-diethynyl
ligands. Both the dimetallic and the tetrametallic complexes have
been characterized by spectroscopic techniques and by single-crystal
X-ray diffraction. Due to the geometric constraints of the ligands,
the cyclophane deviates from the expected planarity and shows a twisted
structure. The work demonstrates that the rigid angular di-NHC ligand
is a suitable scaffold for the reliable construction of organometallic-based
metallosupramolecular assemblies.
