The crystal and molecular structure of the [Os(bpy)_2(CO)Cl]~+Otr complex

摘要

The structure of the [Os(bpy)_2(CO)Cl]~+Otr complex(where bpy=2,2'-bipyridine and Otf~=triflate,CF_3SO_3 )has been solved by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and the NMR technique has been employed for the characterization of the complex in solution.Theoretical calculations have been performed to unravel the structural disorder found in the solid state and for the characterization of the geometric and energetic features of the complex in apolar solution.This study is part of our investigation of Os(bpy)_2(CO)complexes and in this paper we also intend to investigate the effect of different anions on the solid and solution properties of the [Os(bpy)_2(CO)Cl]~+ cation.
