At 0 C, BH3 reacted with HCr (CO) 5" in THF to abstract hydride, presumablyproducing coordinatively unsaturated Cr (CO) 5, which immediately aggregated with remaining HCr (CO) 5" to yield the very stable (MH)[Cr2 (CO) 10]'. At room temperature two bridging hydride products were obtained. In addition to the binuclear bridging hydride, a second product,(MH) 2BH2Cr (CO) 4 “, resulted from CO loss either prior to or following Cr-H—BH3 adduct formation. The borohydride complex could be reconverted to HCr (CO) 5" on addition of CO; however,(MH)[Cr2 (CO) 10]“was also formed in the process. Salts of both title anions were characterized by solution spectroscopic probes as well as X-ray structural analysis. Crystals of [Ph4P][HCr (CO) 5] were found to belong to the tetragonal space group P4/n, with a= 13.234 (2) A, b= 13.234 (2) A, c= 7.472 (2) A, and Z= 2. R (F)= 3.9% for 1796 reflections with I> 3 (7). Deep red crystals of [PPN][(MH) 2BH2Cr (CO) 4] belong to the triclinic space group PT, with a= 11.708 (3) A, b= 14.572 (6) A, c= 11.454 (3) A, a= 101.98 (3), ß= 91.69 (2), 7= 77.34 (3), and Z= 2. R (F)= 6.6% for 2880 reflections with/> 3 (). Most notably, HCr (CO) 5-showed bending of the crystallographically identical equatorial CO groups toward the hydride ligand (zfCOljx-Cr-fCO),*,= 95.4 (1)), as has been exhibited by all mononuclear hydridocarbonyl complexeswhose structures are known. Analysis of the v (CO) infrared spectrum indicated that this pseudooctahedralstructure persisted in solution. The hydride ligand induced only a very small trans effect on the Cr-C bond length with Cr-Ctrans= 1.852 (4) A and Cr-Ccis= 1.865 (3) A. The hydride ligand was located 1.66 (5) A from Cr. In contrast the Cr-C bonds of (qH) 2BH2Cr (CO) 4 ‘showed considerable asymmetry with Cr-Cjqftrans to)= 1.81 (1) and 1.82 (1) A and Cr-Cax (cis to)= 1.87 (1) and 1.85 (1) A. In addition, the axial CO groups bend away from the [0i-H) 2BCr] planar unit, Z (CO) ax-Cr-(CO) ax= 175.6 (4), whereas the equatorial CO groups expand into the space made available by the small requirement of the (µ-) 2 bidentate ligand, Z (CO) eq-Cr-(CO) eq= 94.8 (4). Carbon-13 NMR spectroscopy showed the CO groups of (µ-) 2 20 (0) 4 “to be stereochemically rigid at+ 30 C whereas NMR spectroscopy showed rapid interchange of bridging and terminal hydrogens, even at-80 C.
