The silylated ferrocenyl selenium reagent 1,1'-Fe(eta5-C5H4SeSiMe3)2 has been used for the high yield formation of the phosphine-ligated copper complexes Cu2(fcSe2)(PiPr3)2 (1) and Cu4(fcSe2)2(PnPr3)4 (2) from solublilized CuOAc, as determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The incorporation of a source of Se2- into the reaction scheme with the reagent Se(SiMe3)2 yields the mixed selenide/ferrocenyldiselenolate cluster [Cu20Se6(Se2fc)4(PnPr3)10] (3). Partial substitution of the PnPr3 ligand shell in 3 with the phosphinothiol Ph2P(CH2)3SH leads to an expansion of the framework and the high yield formation of the crystallographically characterized cluster Cu36(fcSe2)6Se12(PnPr3)10(Ph2P(CH2)3SH)2 (5), which contains surface alkylthiol groups on a copper-selenium core.
Treatment of [Et4N]2[WSe4] with a 1:1 mixture of AgNO3 and PCy3 (Cy = cyclohexyl) in the absence of iodide afforded a linear trinuclear compound [(mu-WSe4)(AgPCy3)2] (1). A similar reaction in the presence of iodide gave rise to the isolation of the cubanelike compound [(mu3-WSe4)Ag3(PCy3)3(mu3-I)] (2). Treatment of [Et4N]2[WSe4] with AgI in the presence of bidentate phosphine ligands bis(diphenylphosphino)amine (dppa) and bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm) afforded the tetranuclear compounds [(mu3-WSe4)Ag3(mu-I)(mu-dppa)2] (3) and [(mu3-WSe4)Ag3(mu3-I)(mu-dppm)2] (4), respectively, which exhibit an open butterfly configuration. A novel hexanuclear cluster compound [(mu3-WSe4)2Ag4(mu-dppm)3] (5) was obtained from interaction of [Et4N]2[WSe4] with AgNO3 and dppm in the absence of iodide source. The above cluster compounds are electrically neutral and air-stable in both solution and the solid state and have been characterized by electronic, infrared, mass, and NMR spectroscopies. The solid-state structures of five cluster compounds have been established by X-ray crystallography. The nonlinear optical properties of compounds 4 and 5 were examined by z-scan techniques with 7 ns pulses at 532 nm. The optical limiting effects of compounds 1, 2, 4, and 5 were determined and compared with related argentoselenometallic compounds.
The binary materials ZnS, ZnSe, and ZnTe have been successfully prepared within the mesoporous framework of MCM-41 at room temperature through the use of silylated chalcogen reagents. Postsynthesis grafting of ethylenediamine facilitates the complexation of anhydrous zinc acetate to the pore surface via a ligand exchange process between monodentate 3,5-lutidine ligands and the anchored chelating moiety. Coordinated zinc acetate readily reacts with E(SiMe(3))(2) (E = S, Se, or Te), thereby encapsulating zinc chalcogenides in the mesoporous channels. ZnE-MCM-41 materials have been characterized by EDX analysis, nitrogen sorption analysis, and Raman, UV-vis, and solid-state NMR spectroscopy. The observed blue shift in the absorption maximum is in agreement with the expected quantum confinement of these materials given the nanometer dimensions of the mesoporous architecture of the silicate host.
The coplanar cluster compound [Et4N]4[(mu4-WSe4)Cu4I6] (1) was prepared from reaction of [Et4N]2[WSe4] with 4 equiv of CuI in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution in the presence of [Et(4)N]I. Treatment of 1 with pyridine (py) in dry MeCN gave the neutral cluster [(mu4-WSe4)Cu4(py)6I2] (2) in good yield. Recrystallization of 1 from py/i-PrOH resulted in the reorganization of the coplanar WSe4Cu4 core and the formation of a neutral polymeric cluster [(mu3-WOSe3)Cu3(py)3(mu-I)]n (3) containing a nest-shaped OWSe3Cu3 core and a terminal W=O bond. The interaction of cluster 1 with excess PPh3 in CH3Cl3 gave [(mu3-WSe4)Cu3(PPh3)3(mu3-I)] (4) which has a cubanelike SeWSe3Cu3I core. Treatment of 1 with 1 equiv of CuI in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) yielded [Et4N]4[(mu5-WSe4)(CuI)5(mu-I)2] (5) which has a crown-like core structure. Treatment of 1 in DMF with 2 equiv of CuI in the presence of py resulted in the formation of a two-dimensional polymeric cluster, [(mu6-WSe4)Cu6I4(py)4]n (6), consisting of an octahedral WSe4Cu6 repeating unit. The solid-state structures of clusters 3, 5, and 6 have been further established by X-ray crystallography. The nonlinear optical properties of 6 have been also investigated. Cluster 6 was found to exhibit good photostability and a large optical limiting effect with the limiting threshold being ca. 0.3 J cm(-2).

A series of complexes, ranging from the small cluster 1/infinity[Ag(Ph2PS2)(dppe)](infinity) [dppe=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane] to [Cu48S20(O(t)Bu)2(Ph2PS2)2(dppm-)4(dppm)4][dppm=1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane] (the largest Cu cluster containing phosphinodithioato ligands), has been synthesised. The structural evidence presented here indicates that in these reactions initially small cyclic aggregates or one-dimensional coordination polymers are formed. The growth of these intermediates to larger aggregates can take up to several months and could proceed via cationic intermediates.
The coordination chemistry of 1,1'-diisocyanoferrocene (1) was investigated. Its reaction with Cr(CO)5(THF) (2 equiv) affords (1)[Cr(CO)5]2, which exhibits eclipsed cyclopentadienyl rings with a synclinal arrangement of the two substituents. 1 behaves like an aryl isocyanide in this compound according to IR spectroscopic data, and its oxidation leads to a marked decrease of net electron donor ability. The reaction of 1 with AuCl(SMe2) affords the insoluble coordination polymer [(1)(AuCl)2]infinity. The (1)(AuCl)2 molecules adopt a 3,4-diaura-[6]ferrocenophane structure. They are aggregated in a zipperlike fashion through aurophilic interactions, with Au-Au distances ranging from 3.34 to 3.48 A. The adsorption of 1 from acetonitrile solution on polycrystalline gold affords a self-assembled monolayer. Both isocyanide groups are binding to the surface.

[structure: see text] 1,3-Bis(2-bromophenyl)-2,5-diphenylbenzenes are readily available by the condensation of phenylacetates with the corresponding pyrylium salts and undergo a palladium-catalyzed dehydrohalogenation to give functionalized dibenzo[fg,op]naphthacenes.
Molecules of the title compound, [Cu(C(2)H(3)N)(C(11)H(9)N(5))(C(6)H(6)N(2)O)](BF(4))(2).2C(2)H(3)N, comprise (acetonitrile)[2,6-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine](isonicotinamide)copper(II) cations, tetrafluoroborate anions and lattice acetonitrile molecules. The cations have distorted square-pyramidal geometries in which the N(3)-donor, viz. 2,6-bis(pyrazol-1-yl)pyridine, and the N-donor, viz. the isonicotinamide ligand, occupy the four basal positions, with the coordinated acetonitrile N-donor atom occupying the apical position. Pairs of cations are linked by N-H.F hydrogen bonds through tetrafluoroborate anions, forming centrosymmetric dimers, which are further linked by C-H.O hydrogen bonds into two-dimensional undulating sheets, three of which interpenetrate to generate a two-dimensional network.
