The phenylselenolate mercury alkyl compounds, PhSeHgMe and PhSeHgEt, have been structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction, thereby demonstrating that both compounds are monomeric with approximately linear coordination geometries; the mercury centers do, nevertheless, exhibit secondary Hg⋯Se intermolecular interactions that serve to increase the coordination number in the solid state. The ethyl derivative, PhSeHgEt, undergoes facile protolytic cleavage of the Hg–C bond to release ethane at room temperature, whereas PhSeHgMe exhibits little reactivity under similar conditions. Interestingly, the cleavage of the Hg–C bond of PhSeHgEt is also more facile than that of the thiolate analog, PhSHgEt, which demonstrates that coordination by selenium promotes protolytic cleavage of the mercury–carbon bond. The phenylselenolate compounds PhSeHgR (R = Me, Et) also undergo degenerate exchange reactions with, for example, PhSHgR and RHgCl. In each case, the alkyl groups preserve coupling to the 199Hg nuclei, thereby indicating that the exchange process involves metathesis of the Hg–SePh/Hg–X groups rather than metathesis of the Hg–R/Hg–R groups.
The phenylselenolate mercury alkyl compounds, PhSeHgR (R = Me, Et), have been structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction. Both compounds undergo rapid exchange with RHgX (X = SPh, Cl) on the NMR timescale, while PhSeHgEt also undergoes facile protolytic cleavage of the Hg–C bond by PhSH.Figure optionsDownload as PowerPoint slide
