Intramolecular Magnetic and Electrostatic Interactions in Stepwise Stacked Trinuclear Paramagnetic Metallocenes with the Metal Sequences Fem’fe and Nim’ni(M’=v, Cr, Co, Ni) and Cocrco
A building block concept was used for the synthesis of paramagnetic trinuclear metallocenes which are Cp-bridged by two adjacent Me(2)Si groups. The series of compounds abbreviated by the metal sequence FeM’Fe contained one central paramagnetic metallocene with M’ = V, Cr, Co, and Ni and two terminal ferrocenes, while three paramagnetic metallocenes were assembled in CoCrCo and the series NiM’Ni with M’ = V, Cr, Co, and Ni. Two paramagnetic centers were present in NiFeNi. The X-ray crystal structure analysis of FeVFe showed a folding of the bridging ligand so that the axes of adjacent metallocenes are inclined by 39.9 degrees and the CH3 groups are not equivalent (triclinic, space group P ($) over bar 1, a = 10.075(2) Angstrom, b = 10.268(1) Angstrom, c = 9.019(1) Angstrom, alpha = 96.93(1)degrees, beta = 95.78(1)degrees, gamma = 95.15(1)degrees, Z = 1). Seven species MM’M were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. They underwent up to five oxidations and two reductions. From the potential splittings Coulomb interactions of 140 and 40 mV were estimated between next-neighbor and terminal metallocenes, respectively.
