cobalt bis(dicarbollide) anion [(1,2-C2B9H11)2-3,3′-Co]− (1–) is an increasingly important
building block for the design of new biologically active compounds.
Here we report the reactions of lithiated 1– with N-(ω-bromoalkyl)phthalimides
Br-(CH2)n-N(CO)2NC6H4 (where n = 1 to 3) that
give a number of new compounds substituted at dicarbollide carbon
atom positions. For n = 2 and 3, substitution of
the cobalt bis(dicarbollide) anion is accompanied by cyclocondensation
of the organic moieties to give polycyclic ring structures attached
to the cage. Predominant products correspond to oxazolo[2,3-a]isoindol-5(9bH)-1,2,3-dihydro-9b-yl)-(1-cobalt(III) bis(1,2-dicarbollide)(1–) (2–) and 1-(2H-[1,3]-oxazino[2,3-a]isoindol-6(10bH)-1,3,4-dihydro-10b-yl)-(1-cobalt(III)
bis(1,2-dicarbollide)(1–) (4–) ions with isoindolone functions containing
either five- or six-membered lateral oxazine rings. Additionally,
products (tetrahydro-2-benzo[4,5]furan-1(3H)-1-[3,3]-yl-)-1,1′-μ-cobalt(III)
bis(1,2-dicarbollide)(1–) (3–) and (2-(azetidin-yl-carbonyl)benzoyl-)-1-cobalt(III)
bis(1,2-dicarbollide)(1–) (5–) were isolated, which display unusual cyclic
structures featuring a bicyclic benzofuranone ring attached in a bridging
manner by a quarternary carbon to two skeletal carbon atoms and a
ketobenzoic acid amide substituent with a side azetidine ring. However,
in the case of n = 1, only the anticipated methylene
amine derivative [(1-NH2CH2-1,2-C2B9H11)(1′,2′-C2B9H11)2-3,3′-Co]− (6–) was isolated in
low yield after cleavage of the phthalimide intermediate species.
The molecular structures of all isolated cyclic products 2– to 5– were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies,
and the structure of cobalt bis(dicarbollide)-1-CH2NH2 6– was delineated
using density functional theory applied at BP86/AE1 level in combination
with NMR spectroscopy. Thus, the synthetic method described herein
presents a facile route to new cobalt bis(dicarbollide) derivatives
substituted by polycyclic structural motifs with potential biological
activity.
