Oxo complexes of osmium(IV) formed via dioxygen activation. X-ray structures of [OsX(dcpe)2]PF6 (X = Cl, Br), [OsCl(eta 2-O2)(dcpe)2]BPh4, and [OsCl(O)(dcpe)2]BPh4 (dcpe = 1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane)

Dioxygen addition to the 16-electron complexes [OsX(P-P)2]+ (3) gives the dioxygen adducts [OsCl(eta 2-O2)(P-P)2]+ (3), which in turn react with HCl gas to give the novel osmium(IV) oxo complexes trans-[OsX(O)(P-P)2]+ (5) (X = Cl, Br; P-P = 1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane (dcpe), 1,2-bis(diethylphosphino)ethane (depe), 1,2-bis((2R,5R)-2,5-dimethylphospholano)benzene (Me-duphos)). The complexes [OsX(dcpe)2]+ (X = Cl, Br) (3) are studied by X-ray crystallography and are shown to have a "Y-shaped" coordination geometry in the equatorial plane. The X-ray structural analysis of [OsCl(eta 2-O2)(dcpe)2]+ (4a) reveals an exceptionally short O-O bond (1.315(5) A). trans-[OsCl(O)(dcpe)2]+ (5a), the first oxo complex of osmium(IV) investigated crystallographically, exhibits a long Os-O distance of 1.834(3) A. The reactivity of 4 and 5 as oxidants is described. The dioxygen complex 4a transfers one oxygen atom to PPh3 (to give Ph3PO) or oxidizes iodide ions to triiodide ions in the presence of anhydrous HCl. In both reactions, the corresponding oxo species 5a is quantitatively formed as the only metal-containing product. Oxo complexes 5 are surprisingly stable and unreactive toward standard reducing agents such as phosphines.     

Synthesis of N-heterocyclic carbene palladium(II) bis-phosphine complexes and their decomposition in the presence of aryl halides

Methylpalladium(II) carbene complexes of the type [Pd(NHC)Me(P-P)]BF(4) (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene, P-P = chelating phosphine) have been synthesised, the complex [Pd(tmiy)Me(dcype)]BF(4) (tmiy = 1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-ylidene, dcype = 1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)ethane) being characterised crystallographically. Complexes bearing the tmiy ligands were shown to decompose in an analogous manner to complexes bearing monodentate phosphine ligands, with the rate of decomposition being nominally linked to the size of the chelate ring. The decomposition of these complexes in the presence of aryl halides-expected to yield Pd(Ar)X(P-P)-was studied and shown instead to yield PdX(2)(P-P) and [Pd(tmiy)X(P-P)]BF(4). Additionally, Pd(Me)X(P-P) and Pd(Ar)X(P-P) were observed in some cases. Intermolecular cross-over reactions between the starting complex and Pd(Ar)X(P-P) were found to be the source of these unexpected products.     

Halogenation of (phosphine chalcogenide)gold(I) halides; some unexpected products

The monoselenide of 1,8-bis(diphenylphosphino)naphthalene reacts with (tht)AuCl to give the gold(III) system [(dppnAuSe)(2)](2+) 2Cl(-) (1); bromination of the bromogold(I) complex of the 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane monosulfide ligand furnishes the tribromide salt (2a) of a gold(III) cation [LAuBr(2)](+); bromination of the bromogold(I) complex of the 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene monosulfide ligand leads to a mixed bromide/tetrabromoaurate salt (3) of a heterocyclic dication involving a [-PPh(2)-S-PPh(2)-](2+) moiety; analogous reactions of triphenylphosphine sulfide and selenide complexes lead to tetrabromoaurate salts (4a and 4b) of the (bromochalcogeno)phosphonium cations Ph(3)PEBr(+).     

1,2-Bis(2-pyridylethynyl)benzene, a novel trans-chelating bipyridyl ligand. structural characterization of the complexes with silver(I) triflate and palladium(II) chloride

The design, synthesis, and complexation characteristics of the bipyridyl ligand 1,2-bis-(2-pyridylethynyl)benzene are described. The X-ray crystallographic characterization of the 1:1 complexes of 1,2-bis(2-pyridylethynyl)benzene with silver(I) triflate and palladium(II) chloride are described. In the X-ray crystal structure of the silver(I) triflate complex the ligand is essentially planar with negligible distortion compatible with a good fit of the cation in the "cavity" between the pyridine N atoms. Indeed the silver center is almost linear with the N(1)-Ag(1)-N(2) angle of 177.02(10) degrees. The ligand is also essentially planar in the palladium(II) chloride complex with square planar coordination about the palladium with the N(1)-Pd(1)-N(2), Cl(2)-Pd(1)-Cl(2), and N(1)-Pd(1)-Cl(2) angles at 179.53(7), 177.17(2), and 90.52(5) degrees, respectively.     

Bis(silyl)chelat-Komplexe des Eisens

The reaction of Fe₂(CO)₉ with 1,2-bis(dimethylsilyl)benzene, 1,2,4,5-tetrakis(dimethylsilyl)benzene and vic-tetrakis(dimethylsilyl)benzene affords bis(silyl)chelate complexes of iron.     

Sodium cation migration above the diimine pi-system of solvent coordinated dpp-BIAN sodium aluminum complexes (dpp-BIAN=1,2-bis[(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene)

The reactions of the disodium salt of the 1,2-bis[(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino]acenaphthene (dpp-BIAN) ligand with one equivalent of Me2AlCl in diethyl ether, toluene, and benzene produced the complexes [Na(Et2O)2(dpp-BIAN)AlMe2] (1), [Na(eta6-C7H8)(dpp-BIAN)AlMe2] (2) and [Na(eta6-C6H6)(dpp-BIAN)AlMe2] (3), respectively. Recrystallization of 1 from hexane afforded solvent-free [{Na(dpp-BIAN)AlMe2}n] (4) or [Na(Et2O)(dpp-BIAN)AlMe2] (5) depending on the temperature of the solvent. The molecular structures of 1-5 have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The sodium cation coordinates either one of the naphthalene rings (1) or the diimine part of the dpp-BIAN ligand (2-5). In the complexes 2 and 3, the sodium cation additionally coordinates the toluene (2) or benzene molecule (3) in an eta6-fashion.     

Synthesis, structure, and reactivity of novel 3,4-diphosphacyclobutenes bearing silyl groups

[reaction: see text] Copper-mediated homocoupling of sterically hindered 2-(2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl)-1-trialkylsilyl-2-phosphaethenyllithiums afforded 1,2-bis(trialkylsilyl)-3,4-diphosphacyclobutenes (1,2-dihydrodiphosphetenes) through a formal electrocyclic [2+2] cyclization in the P=C-C=P skeleton as well as 2-trimethylsilyl-1,4-diphosphabuta-1,3-diene. Reduction of 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)-3,4-diphosphacyclobutenes followed by quenching with electrophiles afforded ring-opened products, (E)-1,2-bis(phosphino)-1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)ethene and (Z)-2,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-diphosphabut-1-ene. The structures of the ring-opened products indicated E/Z isomerization around the C=C bond after P-P bond cleavage of 5, and the isomerization of the P-C=C skeleton. Ring opening of 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)-3,4-diphosphacyclobutenes affording (E,E)- and (Z,Z)-1,4-diphosphabuta-1,3-dienes was observed upon desilylation.     

Combinative use of high-pressure, metal-templating and sulfur-nucleophilicity towards dithiacyclophane synthesis and its complex intermediates

Combined use of elevated pressure in the liquid phase (15 kbar), a metal template and the sulfur nucleophilicity of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(P-P)₂] (P-P = diphosphine or 2 · monophosphine) facilitates the one-pot synthesis of 3,8-dibenzo-1,6-dithiacyclodecane. Under r.t.p., nucleophilic addition of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(P-P)₂] [P-P = 2 · PPh₃; Ph₂P(CH₂)_nPPh₂, n = 2, 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe), 3, 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (dppp)] with α-α′-dichloro-o-xylene would terminate as a dithiolato bridged cation viz. [Pt₂(μ-SCH₂C₆H₄CH₂S)(P-P)₂]²⁺. Under high pressure (15 kbar) at r.t., these stoichiometric reactions progress via a “catalytic-like” pathway to yield 3,8-dibenzo-1,6-dithiacyclodecane (up to 35%), and a series of mechanistically relevant intermediates and byproducts. The dithiolated intermediates [Pt₂(μ-SCH₂C₆H₄CH₂S)(P-P)₂]²⁺ for PPh₃ and dppp have been isolated as complexes and their crystal structure determined. The formation of 3,8-dibenzo-1,6-dithiacyclodecane demonstrates a convenient synthetic strategy over the multi-step synthesis of this macrocyclic dithioether.     

Reductive debromination of 1,2-bis(bromomethyl)arenes using tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE)

A new method for the reductive debromination of 1,2-bis(bromomethyl)arenes has been developed. The treatment of 1,2-bis(bromomethyl)benzene with tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE) (1) in the presence of olefins gave 1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalenes in moderate to good yields.     

Rhodium-complex-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation: transformation of precatalysts into active species

The use of diolefin-containing rhodium precatalysts leads to induction periods in asymmetric hydrogenation of prochiral olefins. Consequently, the reaction rate increases in the beginning. The induction period is caused by the fact that some of the catalyst is blocked by the diolefin and thus not available for hydrogenation of the prochiral olefin. Therefore, the maximum reaction rate cannot be reached initially. Due to the relatively slow hydrogenation of cyclooctadiene (cod) the share of active catalysts increases at first, and this leads to typical induction periods. The aim of this work is to quantify the hydrogenation of the diolefins cyclooctadiene (cod) and norborna-2,5-diene (nbd) for cationic complexes of the type [Rh(ligand)(diolefin)]BF(4) for the ligands Binap (1,1'-binaphthalene-2,2'-diylbis(phenylphosphine)), Me-Duphos (1,2-bis(2,5-dimethylphospholano)benzene, and Catasium in the solvents methanol, THF, and propylene carbonate. Furthermore, an approach is presented to determine the desired rate constant and the resulting respective pre-hydrogenation time from stoichiometric hydrogenations of the diolefin complexes via UV/Vis spectroscopy. This method is especially useful for very slow diolefin hydrogenations (e.g., cod hydrogenation with the ligands Me-Duphos, Et-Duphos (1,2-bis(2,5-diethylphospholano)benzene), and dppe (1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane).     

Rigid P-chiral phosphine ligands with tert-butylmethylphosphino groups for rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of functionalized alkenes

Both enantiomers of 2,3-bis(tert-butylmethylphosphino)quinoxaline (QuinoxP*), 1,2-bis(tert-butylmethylphosphino)benzene (BenzP*), and 1,2-bis(tert-butylmethylphosphino)-4,5-(methylenedioxy)benzene (DioxyBenzP*) were prepared in short steps from enantiopure (S)- and (R)-tert-butylmethylphosphine-boranes as the key intermediates. All of these ligands were crystalline solids and were not readily oxidized on exposure to air. Their rhodium complexes exhibited excellent enantioselectivities and high catalytic activities in the asymmetric hydrogenation of functionalized alkenes, such as dehydroamino acid derivatives and enamides. The practical utility of these catalysts was demonstrated by the efficient preparation of several chiral pharmaceutical ingredients having an amino acid or a secondary amine component. A rhodium complex of the structurally simple ligand BenzP* was used for the mechanistic study of asymmetric hydrogenation. Low-temperature NMR studies together with DFT calculations using methyl α-acetamidocinnamate as the standard model substrate revealed new aspects of the reaction pathways and the enantioselection mechanism.     

Rational design of azide-bridged bimetallic complexes. Crystal structure and magnetic properties of Fe(III)MFe(III) (M = Ni(II) and Cu(II)) trinuclear species

The first examples of azide-bridged bimetallic trinuclear complexes ([M(cyclam)][FeL(N3)(mu1,5-N3)]2) (H2L = 4,5-dichloro-1,2-bis(pyridine-2-carboxamido) benzene) have been structurally and magnetically characterized.     

Unusual oxidative cleavage of the aryl—ethynyl bondsin (arylethynyl)polymethylbenzenes with iodine in dimethyl sulfoxide

While heating 1,2,4,5-tetramethyl-3,6-bis(phenylethynyl)benzene, 1,3,5-trimethyl-2,4-bis(phenylethynyl)benzene, and 1,2,4,5-tetramethyl-3-(phenylethynyl)benzene with iodine in DMSO in the absence of oxygen, the triple bonds are oxidized to give the corresponding 1,2-diketones. In the presence of oxygen, the previously unknown competitive oxidative process causes the cleavage of the aryl—ethynyl bonds so that duroquinone and the corresponding 4-hydroxybenzils are formed. This cleavage is produced by oxygen only in the presence of iodine and DMSO. It was shown that the key stage of the process is the formation of intermediate charge-transfer complexes between polymethylbenzene rings and iodine.     

Synthesis of benzo-1,3-ditellurole and its precursors

Poly(o-phenyleneditelluride) 6 has been prepared by the reduction of 1,2-bis(trichlorotelluro)benzene obtained by treatment of 1,2-bis(trimethylsilyl)benzene with TeCl₂. The reduction of 6 with NaBH₄ in ethanol solution affords sodium benzene-1,2-ditellurolate, which, upon treatment with methylene bromide, forms benzo-1,3-ditellurole in 40–47% yield. Benzo-1, 3-ditellurole has also been synthesized in 18–20% yeild by the reaction of 1,2-bis(trimethylslyl)benzene with bis(trichlorotelluro)methane, with subsequent reduction of the product, 1,1,3,3-tetrachlorobenzo-1,3-ditellurole.     

Behavior of neutral phosphido derivatives of platinum and palladium toward silver centers

The reaction of the neutral binuclear complexes [(R(F))(2)Pt(μ-PPh(2))(2)M(phen)] (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, R(F) = C(6)F(5); M = Pt, 1; M = Pd, 2) with AgClO(4) or [Ag(OClO(3))(PPh(3))] affords the trinuclear complexes [AgPt(2)(μ-PPh(2))(2)(R(F))(2)(phen)(OClO(3))] (7a) or [AgPtM(μ-PPh(2))(2)(R(F))(2)(phen)(PPh(3))][ClO(4)] (M = Pt, 8; M = Pd, 9), which display an "open-book" type structure and two (7a) or one (8, 9) Pt-Ag bonds. The neutral diphosphine complexes [(R(F))(2)Pt(μ-PPh(2))(2)M(P-P)] (P-P = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)methane, dppm, M = Pt, 3; M = Pd, 4; P-P = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, dppe, M = Pt, 5; M = Pd, 6) react with AgClO(4) or [Ag(OClO(3))(PPh(3))], and the nature of the resulting complexes is dependent on both M and the diphosphine. The dppm Pt-Pt complex 3 reacts with [Ag(OClO(3))(PPh(3))], affording a silver adduct 10 in which the Ag atom interacts with the Pt atoms, while the dppm Pt-Pd complex 4 reacts with [Ag(OClO(3))(PPh(3))], forming a 1:1 mixture of [AgPdPt(μ-PPh(2))(2)(R(F))(2)(OClO(3))(dppm)] (11), in which the silver atom is connected to the Pt-Pd moiety through Pd-(μ-PPh(2))-Ag and Ag-P(k(1)-dppm) interactions, and [AgPdPt(μ-PPh(2))(2)(R(F))(2)(OClO(3))(PPh(3))(2)][ClO(4)] (12). The reaction of complex 4 with AgClO(4) gives the trinuclear derivative 11 as the only product. Complex 11 shows a dynamic process in solution in which the silver atom interacts alternatively with both Pd-μPPh(2) bonds. When P-P is dppe, both complexes 5 and 6 react with AgClO(4) or [Ag(OClO(3))(PPh(3))], forming the saturated complexes [(PPh(2)C(6)F(5))(R(F))Pt(μ-PPh(2))(μ-OH)M(dppe)][ClO(4)] (M = Pt, 13; Pd, 14), which are the result of an oxidation followed by a PPh(2)/C(6)F(5) reductive coupling. Finally, the oxidation of trinuclear derivatives [(R(F))(2)Pt(II)(μ-PPh(2))(2)Pt(II)(μ-PPh(2))(2)Pt(II)L(2)] (L(2) = phen, 15; L = PPh(3), 16) by AgClO(4) results in the formation of the unsaturated 46 VEC complexes [(R(F))(2)Pt(III)(μ-PPh(2))(2)Pt(III)(μ-PPh(2))(2)Pt(II)L(2)][ClO(4)](2) (17 and 18, respectively) which display Pt(III)-Pt(III) bonds.     

Using a two-step hydride transfer to achieve 1,4-reduction in the catalytic hydrogenation of an acyl pyridinium cation

The stoichiometric reduction of N-carbophenoxypyridinium tetraphenylborate (6) by CpRu(P-P)H (Cp = eta(5)-cyclopentadienyl; P-P = dppe, 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, or dppf, 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene), and Cp*Ru(P-P)H (Cp* = eta(5)-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl; P-P = dppe) gives mixtures of 1,2- and 1,4-dihydropyridines. The stoichiometric reduction of 6 by Cp*Ru(dppf)H (5) gives only the 1,4-dihydropyridine, and 5 catalyzes the exclusive formation of the 1,4-dihydropyridine from 6, H(2), and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine. In the stoichiometric reductions, the ratio of 1,4 to 1,2 product increases as the Ru hydrides become better one-electron reductants, suggesting that the 1,4 product arises from a two-step (e(-)/H(*)) hydride transfer. Calculations at the UB3LYP/6-311++G(3df,3pd)//UB3LYP/6-31G* level support this hypothesis, indicating that the spin density in the N-carbophenoxypyridinium radical (13) resides primarily at C4, while the positive charge in 6 resides primarily at C2 and C6. The isomeric dihydropyridines thus result from the operation of different mechanisms: the 1,2 product from a single-step H(-) transfer and the 1,4 product from a two-step (e(-)/H(*)) transfer.

Bis(alkoxycarbonyl) complexes of platinum: preparation,reactivity and their role in carbonylation reactions

bis(alkoxycarbonyl) complexes of platinum of the type [Pt(COOR)₂L] [L = 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (dppe), 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (dppp), l,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane (dppb), 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf) or 1,2-bis-(diphenylphosphino)benzene (dpb); R = CH₃, C₆H₅ or C₂H₅] were obtained by reaction of [PtCl₂L] with carbon monoxide and alkoxides. Palladium and nickel complexes gave only carbonyl complexes of the type [M(CO)L] or [M(CO)₂L]. The new complexes were characterized by chemical and spectroscopic means. The X-ray structure of [Pt(COOCH₃)₂(dppf] · CH₃OH is also reported. The reactivity of some alkoxycarbonyl complexes was also investigated.     

Reactions of bis(tetrazole)phenylenes. Surprising formation of vinyl compounds from alkyl halides

The reactions of 1,2-bis(tetrazol-5-yl)benzene (1), 1,3-bis(tetrazol-5-yl)benzene (2), 1,4-bis(tetrazol-5-yl)benzene (3), 1,2-(Bu₃SnN₄C)₂C₆H₄ (4), 1,3-(Bu₃SnN₄C)₂C₆H₄ (5) and 1,4-(Bu₃SnN₄C)₂C₆H₄ (6) with 1,2-dibromoethane were carried out by two different methods in order to synthesise pendant alkyl halide derivatives of the parent bis-tetrazoles. This lead to the formation of several alkyl halide derivatives, substituted at either N1 or N2 on the tetrazole ring, as well as the surprising formation of several vinyl derivatives. The crystal structures of both 1,2-[(2-vinyl)tetrazol-5-yl)]benzene (1-N,2-N′) (1b) and 1,3-bis[(2-bromoethyl)tetrazol-5-yl]benzene (2-N,2-N′) (5d) are discussed.     

Metal-catalyzed phosphinyl ester forming reaction of alcohols and phenols with diphosphine disulfides and a dioxide

Transition metal complexes catalyzed the dialkylphosphinothioation reaction of alcohols and phenols with tetraalkyldiphosphine disulfides in high yields. Phenols were reacted in the presence of RhH(PPh₃)₄ and 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane under THF reflux, and alcohols with Pd(OAc)₂ and 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)benzene under chlorobenzene reflux. Primary alcohols reacted faster than secondary alcohols under these conditions, and protected tyrosine and serine were phosphinothioated with minimal racemization. Tetraphenyldiphosphine dioxide also underwent the P-O bond formation reaction.
