On the Reactivity of the Platina‐β‐diketone [Pt2{(COMe)2H}2(μ‐Cl)2] Towards Ph2PCH2CH2CH2SOxPh (x = 0, 2)

The reaction of the electronically unsaturated platina‐β‐diketone [Pt₂{(COMe)₂H}₂(μ‐Cl)₂] ( 1 ) with Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SPh ( 2 ) leads selectively to the formation of the acetyl(chlorido) platinum(II) complex (SP‐4‐3)‐[Pt(COMe)Cl(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SPh‐κP,κS)] ( 4 ) having the γ‐phosphinofunctionalized propyl phenyl sulfide coordinated in a bidentate fashion (κP,κS). In boiling benzene complex 4 undergoes decarbonylation yielding the methyl(chlorido) platinum(II) complex (SP‐4‐3)‐[PtMeCl(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SPh‐κP,κS)] ( 6 ). However, the reaction of 1 with the analogous γ‐diphenylphosphinofunctionalized propyl phenyl sulfone Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph ( 3 ) affords the acetyl(chlorido) platinum(II) complex (SP‐4‐4)‐[Pt(COMe)Cl(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph‐κP)₂] ( 5 ). In boiling benzene complex 5 undergoes a CO extrusion yielding (SP‐4‐4)‐[PtMeCl(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph‐κP)₂] ( 8 ) whereas in presence of 1 the formation of the carbonyl complex (SP‐4‐3)‐[PtMeCl(CO)(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph‐κP)] ( 7 ) is observed. Addition of Ag[BF₄] to complex 5 leads to the formation of the cationic methyl(carbonyl) platinum(II) complex (SP‐4‐1)‐[PtMe(CO)(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph‐κP)₂][BF₄] ( 9 ). All complexes were characterized by microanalysis and NMR spectroscopy (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P) and complexes 4 and 6 additionally by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses.

Preparation and coordination chemistry of Ph2P(CH2)nNHPiPr2 (n=2, 3)

Unsymmetrical diphosphine ligands of the type Ph₂P(CH₂)_nNHPPrⁱ ₂ [n=2 (1), 3 (2)] have been obtained by reacting the appropriate (diphenylphosphino)alkylamine, Ph₂P(CH₂)_nNH₂ with chlorodi-iso-propylphosphine, in the presence of triethylamine.

Reaction of Ph₂P(CH₂)₃NHPPrⁱ ₂ with PtCl₂(PhCN)₂, PtMe₂(cod) and PdCl₂(PhCN)₂ yields the chelate complexes and reaction with PtClMe(cod) led to a 50:50 mixture of chelate isomers.     

Coordination properties of N2S (1,5-bis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)-3-thiapentane) or N2S2 (1,8-bis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)-3,6-dithiaoctane or 1,2-bis[3-(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)-2-thiapropyl]benzene) donor ligands toward Rh(I)

The 1,5-bis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)-3-thiapentane ligand (bdtp) reacts with [Rh(COD)(THF)₂][BF₄] to give [Rh(COD)(bdtp)][BF₄] ([1][BF₄]), which is fluxional in solution on the NMR time scale. Its further treatment with carbon monoxide leads to a displacement of the 1,5-cyclooctadiene ligand, generating a mixture of two complexes, namely, [Rh(CO)₂(bdtp)][BF₄] ([2][BF₄]) and [Rh(CO)(bdtp-κ³N,N,S)][BF₄] ([3][BF₄]). In solution, [2][BF₄] exists as a mixture of two isomers, [Rh(CO)₂(bdtp-κ²N,N)]⁺ ([2a]⁺) and [Rh(CO)₂(bdtp-κ³N,N,S)]⁺ ([2b]⁺; major isomer) rapidly interconverting on the NMR time scale. At room temperature, [2][BF₄] easily loses one molecule of carbon monoxide to give [3][BF₄]. The latter is prone to react with carbon monoxide to partially regenerate [2][BF₄]. The ligands 1,2-bis[3-(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)-2-thiapropyl]benzene (bddf) and 1,8-bis(3,5-dimethyl-1-pyrazolyl)-3,6-dithiaoctane (bddo) are seen to react with two equivalents of [Rh(COD)(THF)₂][BF₄] to give the dinuclear complexes [Rh₂(bddf)(COD)₂][BF₄]₂ ([4][BF₄]₂) and [Rh₂(bddo)(COD)₂][BF₄]₂ ([5][BF₄]₂), respectively. In such complexes, the ligand acts as a double pincer holding two rhodium atoms through a chelation involving S and N donor atoms. Bubbling carbon monoxide into a solution of [4][BF₄]₂ results in loss of the COD ligand and carbonylation to give [Rh₂(bddf)(CO)₄][BF₄]₂ ([6][BF₄]₂). The single-crystal X-ray structures of [3][CF₃SO₃], [5][BF₄]₂ and [6][BF₄]₂ are reported.

One S₃N^? and one S₅^2? are coordinate as chelate ligands to Pd. From S₇NH, Pd(CN)₂, and XOH X = [(CH₃)₄N]⁺ and [(C₆H₅)₄P]⁺ the salts X[Pd(S₃N)(CN)₂] were formed. The (CH₃)₄N-salt is isomorphous with the analogous Ni compound described earlier, the (C₆H₅)₄P-salt is triclinic, a = 9.372(4), b = 10.202(5), c = 13.638(6) Å, α = 86.36α(4), β = 85.66°(4), γ = 88.71°(4), Z = 2, space group P1 .

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of Copper and Silver Complexes with the Ylide Ph3PCHP(O)PPh2 as Ligand

The reactivity of the hydrolysis product of hexaphenylcarbodiphosphorane, PPh₃CHP(O)Ph₂, towards different soft Lewis acids, such as CuI and Ag[BF₄] are reported. While CuI exclusively binds at the ylidic carbon atom, reaction of the silver cation in CH₂Cl₂ leads to proton abstraction from the solvent to give the cation [PPh₃CH₂P(O)Ph₂]⁺. Surprisingly, Ag⁺ replaces the methyl group of [PPh₃CHMeP(O)Ph₂]⁺ to produce a dimeric complex, in which Ag⁺ is coordinated to C and O forming an eight membered ring. The compounds were characterized by spectroscopic methods and X‐ray diffraction.

The Preparation and X-Ray Structure of [AsPh4][Ph2P(S)NSiMe3] · 0.5 THF

The reaction of Ph₂P(S)N(SiMe₃)₂ with potassium tert-butoxide in a 1:1 molar ratio produces K[Ph₂P(S)NSiMe₃], which was converted to the AsPh₄⁺ salt by metathesis with [AsPh₄]Cl. The X-ray crystal structure of [AsPh₄][Ph₂P(S)NSiMe₃] · 0.5 THF consists of noninteracting AsPh₄⁺ and Ph₂P(S)NSiMe₃^? ions with d(P? S) = 1.980(4) Å and d(P? N) = 1.555(8) Å. The PNSi bite angle in the anion is 136.3(5)°. Electrophilic attack by Ph₂P(S)Cl occurs at the sulfur atom of Ph₂P(S)NSiMe₃^?. The oxidation of the anion with iodine produces a disulfide which regenerates K[Ph₂P(S)NSiMe₂] upon treatment with potassium tert-butoxide.     

Syntheses,Crystal Structures and Non‐linear Optical Properties of Cluster Compounds [MoAu2S4(PPh2Py)2] and [WAu2S4(PPh2Py)2]

The cluster compounds, [MoAu₂S₄(PPh₂Py)₂] ( 1 ) and [WAu₂S₄(PPh₂Py)₂] ( 2 ), were synthesized by the reaction of (NH₄)₂MS₄ (M = Mo, W), H[AuCl₄]·4H₂O and diphenyl‐2‐pyridyl‐phosphine (PPh₂Py) in CH₂Cl₂ solution. [MoAu₂S₄(PPh₂Py)₂] crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/c with a = 18.385(2), b =12.304(1), c = 16.904(2) Å, β =110.722(2)°, and Z = 4. [WAu₂S₄(PPh₂Py)₂] crystallizes in the triclinic space group P‐1 with a = 9.333 (3), b = 10.628(3), c = 19.566(6) Å, α = 89.26(1), β = 80.87(1), γ = 68.85(1)°, and Z = 2. Single crystal X‐ray analysis showed that these two compounds are isostructural, but belong to different space groups. The Mo (W) atom has a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination, and the two Au atoms are distorted from trigonal planar, the P—Au—M—Au—P chain is nearly linear. Measurement of the nonlinear optical (NLO) properties using the Z‐scan technique with an 8‐ns pulsed laser at 532 nm showed that 1 and 2 possess NLO absorption and effective self‐focusing effect. The effective α₂ and n₂ values of cluster 1 are 5.89 × 10^—12 m · W^—1 and 6.45 × 10^—18 m² · W^—1; the effective α₂ and n₂ values of compound 2 are 4.35 × 10^—11 m · W^—1 and 3.73 × 10^—17 m² · W^—1.

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.
