Abstract: | Coordination compounds of chelating 8-methylthioquinoline (MTQ) with the complex fragments ReI(CO)3Cl, RuII(bpy)2]2+, RhIII(C5Me5)Cl]+, IrIII(C5Me5)Cl]+, and PtIVMe4 were synthesized and structurally characterized. Whereas the ruthenium(II) complex displays the strongest preference of bonding to N versus S, the compound (MTQ)PtMe4 shows the most balanced metal-donor bonding within the chelate ring due to a relatively short bond to S (2.319 Å) versus N (2.150 Å). The complex fac-(MTQ)Re(CO)3Cl exhibits a particularly long metal-sulfur bond at 2.472 Å. Cyclic voltammetry of (MTQ)Ru(bpy)2](PF6)2 reveals one reversible oxidation to RuIII and three closely spaced reduction waves for the coordinated ligands. In comparison with the imine/thioether chelate ligand 1-methyl-2-(methylthiomethyl)-1H-benzimidazole (mmb) the MTQ ligand with its more rigid chelate setting N(sp2)-C(sp2)-C(sp2)-S forms generally shorter M-S bonds and displays stronger π acceptor behaviour. |
