Synthesis and characterization of technetium-(IV) and -(III) complexes with bidentate Schiff bases. X-Ray molecular structure of chloro-(dimethylphenylphosphine)bis(N-phenylsalicylideneiminato)technetium(III)

Abstract
The complexes [TcCl4(HL)2] and [TcCl3L(PPh3)][HL =N-methylsalicylideneimine or N-phenylsalicylideneimine (Hpsal)] of the long-lived isotope technetium-99 were synthesized from [TcCl4(PPh3)2], while the complexes [TcClL2(PMe2Ph)] were obtained through the reduction of the oxotechnetium(V) complexes [TcO(Cl)L2] with PMe2Ph. The crystal structure of the complex [TcCl(psal)2(PMe2Ph)] has been determined: a= 9.500(4), b= 10.596(4), c= 31.000(9)Å, β= 95.59(5)°, monoclinic, space group P21/c, and Z= 4. The co-ordination around Tc is approximately octahedral with the two chelate ligands mutually orthogonal, one ligand bridging two adjacent positions in the plane normal to the Tc–P bond and the other in the plane normal to the Tc–Cl bond. The phosphorus atom of PMe2Ph is in a position trans to the aldimine nitrogen of one of the psal ligands, while the chlorine atom is trans to the nitrogen atom of the second psal, leaving the two phenolic oxygens in trans positions to each other.
