Synthetic studies for the preparation of phosphorus carbonyl rhenacycles with the selenoimidodiphosphinate ligand [N(SePPh2)2]

The synthesis of the rhenacycles [Re(CO)₃(PR₃){Ph₂P(Se)NP(Se)Ph₂-κ²Se}], PR₃ = PPh₃ (1), PMePh₂ (2), and PMe₂Ph (3) by a straightforward high yield procedure is described. Attempts at the preparation of the spiro [Re(CO)₂(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂PPh₂-κ²P){Ph₂P(Se)NP(Se)Ph₂-κ²Se}] resulted in the formation of complexes [Re₂(CO)₆{Ph₂P(Se)NP(Se)Ph₂-κ²Se}₂(μ-Ph₂PCH₂CH₂PPh₂)] (4) and [Re(CO)₃(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂PPh₂-κ²P){Ph₂P(Se)NP(Se)Ph₂-κSe}] (5). All new inorganic rhenacycles 1-5 were characterized in solution and in solid state. The X-ray diffraction analysis of [Re(CO)₃PPh₃{Ph₂P(Se)NP(Se)Ph₂-κ²Se}] showed that its MnSePNPSe ring conformation is sensitive to temperature.

Their spectroscopic data indicate that the addition of the cations occurs at the sulphur atom to give end‐to‐end thiocarbonyl bridged complexes [HB(pz)₃(OC)₂MCSM′L_n].     

THE REACTIONS OF [MoCl(GeCl3)(CO)3(NCMe)2] WITH NEUTRAL BI- AND TERDENTATE DONOR LIGANDS

Abstract

The reaction of [MoCl(GeCl₃)(CO)₃(NCMe)₂] with an equimolar quantity of L?L {L?L = 2,2′-bipy, 1,10-phen, Ph₂P(CH₂)_nPPh₂ (n = 1 or 2)} in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature gave either [MoCl(GeCl₃)(CO)₃(L?L)] (L?L = 2,2′-bipy or 1,10-phen) (1 and 2) or [MoCl(GeCl₃)(CO)₂ (NCMe)(L?L)]{L?L = Ph₂P(CH₂)_nPPh₂ (n = 1 or 2) (3 or 4), respectively. Equimolar quantities of [MoCl(GeCl₃)(CO)₂(NCMe){Ph₂P(CH₂)PPh₂}] (3) and L?L {L?L = 2,2′-bipy or Ph₂P(CH)₂PPh₂} react in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature to afford the cationic complexes [Mo(GeCl₃)(CO)₂{Ph₂P(CH₂) PPh₂}(L?L)]Cl (5 and 6) in good yield. The cationic nature of 6 was established by chloride exchange by reacting Na[BPh₄] with 6 in acetonitrile to give the tetraphenylborate complex [Mo(GeCl₃)(CO)₂{Ph₂P(CH₂)PPh₂}₂][BPh₄] (7). Reaction of equimolar quantities of [MoCl(GeCl₃) (CO)₃(NCMe)₂] and PhP(CH₂CH₂PPh₂)₂ in CH₂Cl₂ at room temperature afforded the dicarbonyl complex [MoCl(GeCl₃)(CO)₂{PhP(CH₂CH₂PPh₂)₂}] (8) in good yield.     

Photochemical reactions of [(η 5-C5H5)Mn(CO)3] with Ph2P(S)(CH2) n P(S)Ph2 [n=1, dppm(S)2; 2, dppe(S)2; 3, dppp(S)2]

Six new complexes, Mn(CO)( ⁵-C₅H₅){Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂}] (1a–3a) [(1a), n=1; (2a), n=2; (3a), n=3] and [Mn₂(CO)₄( ⁵-C₅H₅)₂(cis--Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂)] (1b–3b) [(1b), n=1; (2b), n=2; (3b), n=3] have been synthesized by the photochemical reaction of [( ⁵-C₅H₅)Mn(CO)₃] with Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂ [n=1, dppm(S)₂; 2, dppe(S)₂; 3, dppp(S)₂]. The complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis, mass spectroscopy, f.t.-i.r. and ³¹P–[¹H]-n.m.r. spectroscopy. The spectroscopic studies reveal that coordination of the ligand iscis-chelate bidentate in [Mn(CO)( ⁵-C₅H₅){Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂}] (1a–3a) and cis-bridging bidentate between two metals in [Mn₂(CO)₄( ⁵-C₅H₅)₂(cis--Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n P(S)Ph₂)] (1b–3b).     

Photochemical reactions of M(CO)6 (M = Cr,Mo, W) with Ph2P(S)P(S)Ph2

New complexes {M(CO)₄[Ph₂P(S)P(S)Ph₂]} (M = Cr, Mo and W), (1a)–(3a), [(1a), M = Cr; (2a), M = Mo; (3a), M = W] and {M₂(CO)₁₀[-Ph₂P(S)P(S)Ph₂]} (M = Cr, Mo, W), [(1b)–(3b) [(1b), M = Cr; (2b), M = Mo; (3b), M = W]] have been prepared by the photochemical reaction of M(CO)₆ with Ph₂P(S)P(S)Ph₂ and characterized by elemental analyses, f.t.-i.r. and ³¹P-(¹H)-n.m.r. spectroscopy and by FAB-mass spectrometry. The spectra suggest cis-chelate bidentate coordination of the ligand in {M(CO)₄[Ph₂P(S)P(S)Ph₂]} and cis-bridging bidentate coordination of the ligand between two metals in (M = Cr, Mo and W).     

Platinum,iridium and rhodium complexes with substituted bis-(diphenylphosphino)methane ligands Ph2PCH(R)PPh2 (R = Me,Ph or SiMe3)

Substituted phosphines of the type Ph₂PCH(R)PPh₂ and their Pt^II complexes [PtX₂{Ph₂PCH(R)PPh₂}] (R = Me, Ph or SiMe₃; X = halide) were prepared. Treatment of [PtCl₂(NCBu^t)₂] with Ph₂PCH(SiMe₃)-PPh₂ gave [PtCl₂(Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂)], while treatment with Ph₂PCH(Ph)PPh₂ gave [Pt{Ph₂PCH(Ph)PPh₂}₂]Cl₂. Reaction of p-MeC₆H₄C≡CLi or PhC≡CLi with [PtX₂{Ph₂PCH(Me)PPh₂}] gave [Pt(C≡CC₆H₄Me-p)₂-{Ph₂PCH(Me)PPh₂}] (X = I) and [Pt{Ph₂PC(Me)PPh₂}₂](X = Cl),while reaction of p-MeC₆H₄C≡CLi with [Pt{Ph₂PCH(Ph)PPh₂}₂]Cl₂ gave [Pt{Ph₂PC(Ph)PPh₂}₂]. The platinum complexes [PtMe₂(dpmMe)] or [Pt(CH₂)₄(dpmMe)] fail to undergo ring-opening on treatment with one equivalent of dpmMe [dpmMe = Ph₂PCH(Me)PPh₂]. Treatment of [Ir(CO)Cl(PPh₃)₂] with two equivalents of dpmMe gave [Ir(CO)(dpmMe)₂]Cl. The PF₆ salt was also prepared. Treatment of [Ir(CO)(dpmMe)₂]Cl with [Cu(C≡CPh)₂], [AgCl(PPh₃)] or [AuCl(PPh₃)] failed to give heterobimetallic complexes. Attempts to prepare the dinuclear rhodium complex [Rh₂(CO)₃(μ-Cl)(dpmMe)₂]BPh₄ using a procedure similar to that employed for an analogous dpm (dpm = Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂) complex were unsuccessful. Instead, the mononuclear complex [Rh(CO)(dpmMe)₂]BPh₄ was obtained. The corresponding chloride and PF₆ salts were also prepared. Attempts to prepare [Rh(CO)(dpmMe)₂]Cl in CHCl₃ gave [RhHCl(dpmMe)₂]Cl. Recrystallization of [Rh(CO)(dpmMe)₂]BPh₄ from CHCl₃/EtOH gave [RhO₂(dpmMe)₂]BPh₄. Treatment of [Rh(CO)₂Cl₂]₂ with one equivalent of dpmMe per Rh atom gave two compounds, [Rh(CO)(dpmMe)₂]Cl and a dinuclear complex that undergoes exchange at room temperature between two formulae: [Rh₂(CO)₂(μ-Cl)(μ-CO)(dpmMe)₂]Cl and [Rh₂(CO)₂-(μ-Cl)(dpmMe)₂]Cl.

They can act as intra and intermolecular bridges between the silver centres. The clusters {[Ag₅(TePh)₆(Ph₂P(CH₂)₂PPh₃)](Ph₂P(CH₂)₂PPh₂)}_∞ ( 1 ), [Ag₁₈Te(TePh)₁₅(Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂)₃Cl] ( 2 ), and [Ag₃₈Te₁₃(TetBu)₁₂(Ph₂P(CH₂)₂PPh₂)₃] ( 3 ) have been prepared and their molecular structure determined.

Rhenium(I) and Technetium(I) Tricarbonyl Complexes with Phosphoraneimines

[NEt₄]₂[Re(CO)₃Br₃] and [NEt₄]₂[Tc(CO)₃Cl₃] react with trimethylsilyltriphenylphosphoraneimine, Me₃SiNPPh₃, under exchange of the bromo ligands and the formation of cationic [M(CO)₃(HNPPh₃)₃]⁺ complexes (M = Re, Tc). The required protons are abstracted from the solvent CH₂Cl₂. The steric bulk of the organic ligands causes a marked distortion of the established coordination polyhedra from an idealized octahedron with bond angles between neighbouring donor atoms between 81.81(8)° and 96.66(8)°. The reaction of [NEt₄]₂[Re(CO)₃Br₃] with Me₃SiNP(Ph₂)CH₂PPh₂ in CH₂Cl₂ yields the neutral complex [Re(CO)₃Br{HNP(Ph₂)CH₂PPh₂)], which contains a neutral, chelate‐bonded (diphenylphosphinomethyl)diphenylphosphoraneimine ligand. A similar reaction with the bifunctional phosphoraneimine Me₃SiNP(Ph₂)CH₂(Ph₂)PNSiMe₃ gives only small amounts of a binuclear rhenium(I) complex of the composition [{Re(CO)₃Br₂}₂(HNP(Ph₂)CH₂(Ph₂)PNH)]^2‐, whereas the major amount of the bis‐phosphoraneimine undergoes an intramolecular rearrangement to yield [H₂NP(Ph₂)NP(Ph₂)CH₃]Br. An X‐ray structure analysis shows a widespread delocalization of electron density over the central part of the cation.

These and two other Re^II complexes with 5 d⁵ ”︁low-spin”︁”︁-configuration can be observed during the reaction EPR spectroscopically. Crystal structure analysis shows linear coordinated NO ligands (Re–N–O-angles between 171.9 and 177.3°). Three OPPh₃ ligands are meridionally coordinated in the final product of the reaction, [Re(NO)Cl₂(OPPh₃)₃][ReO₄] (monoclinic, P2₁/c, a = 13.47(1), b = 17.56(1), c = 24.69(2) Å, β = 95.12(4)°, Z = 4).

Ruthenium(II) carbonyl complexes of P,P and P,O donor diphosphine ligands,Ph2P(CH2)nPPh2 and Ph2P(CH2)nP(O)Ph2, n = 2, 3 and their activities in catalytic transfer hydrogenation reactions

The polymeric precursor [RuCl₂(CO)₂]_n reacts with the ligands, P∩P (a, b) and P∩O (c, d), in 1:1 M ratio to generate six-coordinate complexes [RuCl₂(CO)₂(?²-P∩P)] (1a, 1b) and [RuCl₂(CO)₂(?²-P∩O)] (1c, 1d), where P∩P: Ph₂P(CH₂)_nPPh₂, n = 2(a), 3(b); P∩O: Ph₂P(CH₂)_nP(O)Ph₂, n = 2(c), 3(d). The complexes are characterized by elemental analyses, mass spectrometry, thermal studies, IR, and NMR spectroscopy. 1a–1d are active in catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone and its derivatives to corresponding alcohols with turnover frequency (TOF) of 75–290 h^?1. The complexes exhibit higher yield of hydrogenation products than catalyzed by RuCl₃ itself. Among 1a–1d, the Ru(II) complexes of bidentate phosphine (1a, 1b) show higher efficiency than their monoxide analogs (1c, 1d). However, the recycling experiments with the catalysts for hydrogenation of 4-nitroacetophenone exhibit a different trend in which the catalytic activities of 1a, 1b, and 1d decrease considerably, while 1c shows similar activity during the second run.     

Complexes of (ω-diphenylphosphinoalkyl)diphenylphosphine sulfides with silver nitrate in pyridine

The behavior of the phosphine-phosphine sulfide complexes of silver, [Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n PPh₂] _m ·AgNO₃ (n=2 or 4;m=1 or 2), in pyridine was studied. Dissolution of the 1:1 complexes in pyridine leads to destruction of their dimeric structures Ag₂[Ph₂P(S)(CH₂) _n PPh₂]₂(NO₃)₂ (A) to form the complexes Agp_y ⁺−P(Ph₂)(CH₂) _n Ph₂P=S and Agp_y ⁺−S=PPh₂(CH₂) _n PPh₂. The solid complexes isolated from pyridine restore dimeric structure A. According to the data of X-ray diffraction analysis, the 1:2 complex isolated from pyridine has the structure [S=P(Ph₂)(CH₂)₂(Ph₂)P−(NO₃)Ag(Py)−P(Ph₂) (CH₂)₂(Ph₂)P=S]Py. According to the data of IR spectroscopy, dissolution of this complex in chloroform leads to the formation of the dimeric structure Ag₂Ph₂P(S)(CH₂)₂PPh₂]₄(NO₃)₂. Deceased.

Oxorhenium(V) Complexes with 1,3,4‐Triphenyl‐1,2,4‐triazol‐5‐ylidene

Reactions of the oxorhenium(V) complexes [ReOX₃(PPh₃)₂] (X = Cl, Br) with the N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) 1,3,4‐triphenyl‐1,2,4‐triazol‐5‐ylidene (L^Ph) under mild conditions and in the presence of MeOH or water give [ReOX₂(Y)(PPh₃)(L^Ph)] complexes (X = Cl, Br; Y = OMe, OH). Attempted reactions of the carbene precursor 5‐methoxy‐1,3,4‐triphenyl‐4,5‐dihydro‐1H‐1,2,4‐triazole ( 1 ) with [ReOCl₃(PPh₃)₂] or [NBu₄][ReOCl₄] in boiling xylene resulted in protonation of the intermediately formed carbene and decomposition products such as [HL^Ph][ReOCl₄(OPPh₃)], [HL^Ph][ReOCl₄(OH₂)] or [HL^Ph][ReO₄] were isolated. The neutral [ReOX₂(Y)(PPh₃)(HL^Ph)] complexes are purple, airstable solids. The bulky NHC ligands coordinate monodentate and in cis‐position to PPh₃. The relatively long Re–C bond lengths of approximate 2.1Å indicate metal‐carbon single bonds.     

Chalcogen-capped ruthenium carbonyl clusters derived from diphosphazane mono- and dichalcogenides of the type X2P(E)N(R)PX2 and X2P(E)N(R)P(E)X2 (E = S or Se)

Reactions of Ru₃(CO)₁₂ with diphosphazane monoselenides Ph₂PN(R)P(Se)Ph₂ [R = (S)-∗CHMePh (L⁴), R = CHMe₂ (L⁵)] yield mainly the selenium bicapped tetraruthenium clusters [Ru₄(μ₄-Se)₂(μ-CO)(CO)₈{μ-P,P-Ph₂PN(R)PPh₂}] (1, 3). The selenium monocapped triruthenium cluster [Ru₃(μ₃-Se)(μ_sb-CO)(CO)₇{κ²-P,P-Ph₂PN((S)-∗CHMePh)PPh₂}] (2) is obtained only in the case of L⁴. An analogous reaction of the diphosphazane monosulfide (PhO)₂PN(Me)P(S)(OPh)₂ (L⁶) that bears a strong π-acceptor phosphorus shows a different reactivity pattern to yield the triruthenium clusters, [Ru₃(μ₃-S)(μ₃-CO)(CO)₇{μ-P,P-(PhO)₂PN(Me)P(OPh)₂}] (9) (single sulfur transfer product) and [Ru₃(μ₃-S)₂(CO)₅{κ²-P,P-(PhO)₂PN(Me)P(OPh)₂}{μ-P,P-(PhO)₂PN(Me)P(OPh)₂}] (10) (double sulfur transfer product). The reactions of diphosphazane dichalcogenides with Ru₃(CO)₁₂ yield the chalcogen bicapped tetraruthenium clusters [Ru₄(μ₄-E)₂(μ-CO)(CO)₈{μ-P,P-Ph₂PN(R)PPh₂}] [R = (S)-∗CHMePh, E = S (6); R = CHMe₂, E = S (7); R = CHMe₂, E = Se (3)]. Such a tetraruthenium cluster [Ru₄(μ₄-S)₂(μ- CO)(CO)₈{μ-P,P-(PhO)₂PN(Me)P(OPh)₂}] (11) is also obtained in small quantities during crystallization of cluster 9. The dynamic behavior of cluster 10 in solution is probed by NMR studies. The structural data for clusters 7, 9, 10 and 11 are compared and discussed.     

Platinum group metal functionalized phosphine complexes. Part 2. Phosphinoamide rhodium(I), iridium(I), palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes

Summary Rhodium(I), iridium(I), palladium(II) and platinum(II) complexes of the phosphinoamide ligands, Ph₂PCH₂CONHR (R = H, HDPA; Me, MDPA; Ph, PDPA) were prepared and characterized by using conductivity data, i.r., ¹H and ³¹P(H) n.m.r. spectral data. Reaction of the ligands with MCl(PPh₃)₃ and MCl(CO)(PPh₃)₂ (M = Rh, Ir) in CH₂Cl₂ under reflux lead to the formation of MCl(PPh₃)₂ [Ph₂PCH₂C(O)NHR] and MCl(CO)(PPh₃)[Ph₂PCH₂–C(O)HNR] respectively. The reaction of either K₂MCl₄ or cis-MCl₂(PPh₃)₂ affords complexes of the type cis-MCl₂[Ph₂PCH₂C(O)NHR]₂ (M = Pd, Pt). A similar product results even from the reaction of phosphinoamides with cis-platin. Possible structures are proposed for the complexes based on their physicochemical data     

Low-Dimensional Architectures in Isomeric cis-PtCl2{Ph2PCH2N(Ar)CH2PPh2} Complexes Using Regioselective-N(Aryl)-Group Manipulation

The solid-state behaviour of two series of isomeric, phenol-substituted, aminomethylphosphines, as the free ligands and bound to Pt^II, have been extensively studied using single crystal X-ray crystallography. In the first library, isomeric diphosphines of the type Ph₂PCH₂N(Ar)CH₂PPh₂ [1a–e; Ar = C₆H₃(Me)(OH)] and, in the second library, amide-functionalised, isomeric ligands Ph₂PCH₂N{CH₂C(O)NH(Ar)}CH₂PPh₂ [2a–e; Ar = C₆H₃(Me)(OH)], were synthesised by reaction of Ph₂PCH₂OH and the appropriate amine in CH₃OH, and isolated as colourless solids or oils in good yield. The non-methyl, substituted diphosphines Ph₂PCH₂N{CH₂C(O)NH(Ar)}CH₂PPh₂ [2f, Ar = 3-C₆H₄(OH); 2g, Ar = 4-C₆H₄(OH)] and Ph₂PCH₂N(Ar)CH₂PPh₂ [3, Ar = 3-C₆H₄(OH)] were also prepared for comparative purposes. Reactions of 1a–e, 2a–g, or 3 with PtCl₂(η⁴-cod) afforded the corresponding square-planar complexes 4a–e, 5a–g, and 6 in good to high isolated yields. All new compounds were characterised using a range of spectroscopic (¹H, ³¹P{¹H}, FT–IR) and analytical techniques. Single crystal X-ray structures have been determined for 1a, 1b∙CH₃OH, 2f∙CH₃OH, 2g, 3, 4b∙(CH₃)₂SO, 4c∙CHCl₃, 4d∙½Et₂O, 4e∙½CHCl₃∙½CH₃OH, 5a∙½Et₂O, 5b, 5c∙¼H₂O, 5d∙Et₂O, and 6∙(CH₃)₂SO. The free phenolic group in 1b∙CH₃OH, 2f∙CH₃OH_, 2g, 4b∙(CH₃)₂SO, 5a∙½Et₂O, 5c∙¼H₂O, and 6∙(CH₃)₂SO exhibits various intra- or intermolecular O–H∙∙∙X (X = O, N, P, Cl) hydrogen contacts leading to different packing arrangements.     

Preparation and Reactivity of Mixed‐Ligands Hydride Complexes [RuHCl(CO)(PPh3)2{P(OR)3}]

Mixed‐ligands hydride complexes [RuHCl(CO)(PPh₃)₂{P(OR)₃}] ( 2 ) (R = Me, Et) were prepared by allowing [RuHCl(CO)(PPh₃)₃] ( 1 ) to react with an excess of phosphites P(OR)₃ in refluxing benzene. Treatment of hydrides 2 first with triflic acid and next with an excess of hydrazine afforded hydrazine complexes [RuCl(CO)(κ¹‐NH₂NHR1)(PPh₃)₂{P(OR)₃}]BPh₄ ( 3 , 4 ) (R1 = H, CH₃). Diethylcyanamide derivatives [RuCl(CO)(N≡CNEt₂)(PPh₃)₂{P(OR)₃}]BPh₄ ( 5 ) were also prepared by reacting 2 first with HOTf and then with N≡CNEt₂. The complexes were characterized spectroscopically and by X‐ray crystal structure determination of [RuHCl(CO)(PPh₃)₂{P(OEt)₃}] ( 2b ).     

Synthesis,reactivity and x-ray crystal structures of mixed thiazolato- or carboxylato- carbonyl(phosphine) rhenium(I) complexes

Summary The compound [Re(CO)₃(PPh₃)₂Cl] reacts with the lithium salt of thiazole derivatives (L¹H = 2-amino-benzothiazole, L²H = 2–N-methyl-aminothiazole, L³H = 2–N-phenylaminothiazole, L⁴H = 2–N-(4-methoxyphenyl)aminothiazole, L⁵H = 2–N(4-nitrophenyl)aminothiazole) to give [Re(CO)₂-(PPh₃)₂(L)]. The compounds have been characterized by elemental analysis, i.r. and¹H n.m.r. spectra. At room temperature [Re(CO)₂(PPh₃)(L²)] reacts with L⁶H (L⁶H = diphenylacetic acid), to give the carboxylato complex [Re(CO)₂ .The crystal structures of [Re(CO)₂(PPh₃)₂(L²)] (2) and [Re(CO)₂(PPh₃)₂(L⁶)] (6) were determined by x-ray crystallography. [Re(CO)₂(PPh₃)₂(L²)] crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/m witha = 9.16(1),b= 24.82(2),c =9.12(1) Å, and = 115.81(4)°; D_c = 1.56 g cm^–3for Z = 2.The structure was refined to a final R of 6.4%. The molecules have C_s symmetry. The rhenium atom is six-coordinate with approximately octahedral geometry. The anionic ligand is chelating through the nitrogen atoms and is strictly planar allowing delocalization of the -electron density. [Re(CO)₂(PPh₃)₂(L⁶)] (6) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n witha = 22.203(5),b = 18.651(5),c =10.653(3) Å, = 91.08(3)°, Dc = 1.47 g cm^–3 for Z = 4. The structure was refined to a final R of 4.7%. The complex is monomeric and the rhenium atom is distorted octahedral with two mutuallytrans PPh₃ ligands, twocis CO ligands and one chelating Ph₂CHCO ₂ ^– ion.

Carbonyl- and Nitrosyl Complexes of Manganese and Rhenium of Weakly Coordinated Anions (Ph₃P)₂(ON)₂MnX, (Ph₃P)_n(OC)_5–nMX (M = Mn, Re; n = 1, 2; X = FBF₃, OSO₂CF₃, OSO₂F, OCOR_f) The complexes (Ph₃P)₂(ON)₂MnX (X = FBF₃, OSO₂CF₃, OSO₂F, OCOCF₃, OCOC₃F₇) and (Ph₃P)_n(OC)_5–nMX (M = Mn, Re; n = 1, 2; X = FBF₃, OSO₂CF₃) have been obtained by reaction of (Ph₃P)₂(ON)₂MnH and (Ph₃P)_n(OC)_5–nMeMe with the corresponding acids HX or from (Ph₃P)_n(OC)_5–nReBr (n = 1, 2) with silver salts AgX, respectively. The compounds have been characterized by their IR and partially by ¹⁹F-NMR data. An efficient method for the preparation of the hydride (Ph₃P)₂(ON)₂MnH is reported.     

Chloridobis[2‐(diphenylphosphanyl)ethanamine‐κ2P,N](triphenylphosphane‐κP)ruthenium(II) chloride toluene monosolvate

The aminophosphane ligand 1‐amino‐2‐(diphenylphosphanyl)ethane [Ph₂P(CH₂)₂NH₂] reacts with dichloridotris(triphenylphosphane)ruthenium(II), [RuCl₂(PPh₃)₃], to form chloridobis[2‐(diphenylphosphanyl)ethanamine‐κ²P,N](triphenylphosphane‐κP)ruthenium(II) chloride toluene monosolvate, [RuCl(C₁₈H₁₅P)(C₁₄H₁₆NP)₂]Cl·C₇H₈ or [RuCl(PPh₃){Ph₂P(CH₂)₂NH₂}₂]Cl·C₇H₈. The asymmetric unit of the monoclinic unit cell contains two molecules of the Ru^II cation, two chloride anions and two toluene molecules. The Ru^II cation is octahedrally coordinated by two chelating Ph₂P(CH₂)₂NH₂ ligands, a triphenylphosphane (PPh₃) ligand and a chloride ligand. The three P atoms are meridionally coordinated, with the Ph₂P– groups from the ligands being trans. The two –NH₂ groups are cis, as are the chloride and PPh₃ ligands. This chiral stereochemistry of the [RuCl(PPh₃){Ph₂P(CH₂)₂NH₂}₂]⁺ cation is unique in ruthenium–aminophosphane chemistry.     

Molybdenum(0) and Tungsten(0) Complexes with P,S and P,Se Monooxidized Bis(phosphanyl)amine Ligands

Reactions of monooxidized thioyl and selenoyl bis(phosphanyl)amine ligands C₁₀H₇‐1‐N(P(E)Ph₂)(PPh₂) [E = S ( 1 ), Se ( 2 )] with Mo(CO)₄(pip)₂ and W(CO)₄(cod) afforded the complexes [M(CO)₄{ 1 ‐κ²P,S}] [M = Mo ( 3 ), W ( 4 )] and [M(CO)₄{ 2 ‐κ²P,Se}] [M = Mo ( 5 ), W ( 6 )]. Complexes 3 – 6 were characterized by multinuclear NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P, and ⁷⁷Se NMR) and IR spectroscopy. Crystal‐structure determinations were carried out on 3 , 5 , and 6 , which represent the first examples of structurally characterized complexes of such ligands with group‐6 metal carbonyls.
