Abstract

The coordinating properties of a variety of unsymmetrical uninegative tridentate chelating "pyrazolylgallate" ligands have been studied using the tricarbonyl moieties "M(CO)3", where M = Mn or Re, as acceptor species. A series of monomeric, pseudo octahedral complexes has been characterized and a fac mode of coordination established for the tridentate gallate ligands from 1H nmr, ir measurements, and X-ray structure determinations. Nitrosylation of a selection of the rhenium tricarbonyl compounds has yielded a number of cationic rhenium mononitrosyl dicarbonyl species. The reactivity of these cations towards reducing agents has been investigated.
