Phosphinophosphiniden-Phosphorane tBu2P?P = P(R)tBu2 aus Li(THF)2[η2-(tBu2P)2P] und Alkylhalogeniden

The Phosphinophosphinidene-phosphoranes ^tBu₂P? P = P(R)^tBu₂ from Li(THF)₂[η²-(^tBu₂P)₂P] and Alkyl Halides We report the formation of ^tBu₂P? P = P(R)^tBu₂ a and (^tBu₂)₂PR b (with R = Me, Et, ⁿPr, ⁱPr, ⁿBu, PhCH₂, H₂C = CH? CH₂ and CF₃) reactions of Li(THF)₂[η²-(^tBu₂P)₂P] 2 with MeCl, MeI, EtCl, EtBr, ⁿPrCl, ⁿPrBr, ⁱPrCl, ⁿBuBr, PhCH₂Cl, H₂C = CH? CH₂Cl or CF₃Br. In THF solutions the ylidic compounds a predominate, whereas in pentane the corresponding triphosphanes b are preferrably formed. With ClCH₂? CH = CH₂ only b is produced; CF₃Br however yields both ^tBu₂P? P = P(Br)^tBu₂ and ^tBu₂P? P = P(CF₃)^tBu₂, but no b . The ratio of a:b is influenced by the reaction temperature, too. The compounds ^tBu₂P? P = P(Et)^tBu₂ 4a and (^tBu₂P)₂PEt 4 b , e. g., are produced in a ratio of 4:3 at ?70°C in THF, and 1:1 at 20°C; whereas 1:1 is obtained at ?70°C in pentane, and 1:2 at 20°C. Neither ^tBuCl nor H₂C = CHCl react with 2 . The compounds a decompose thermally or under UV irradiation forming ^tBu₂PR and the cyclophosphanes (^tBu₂P)_nP_n.

XVII [1] [Co(g⁵‐Me₅C₅)(g³‐^tBu₂PPCH–CH₃)] from [Co(g⁵‐Me₅C₅)(g²‐C₂H₄)₂] and ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅)(η³‐^tBu₂PPCH–CH₃)] 1 is formed in the reaction of [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅)(η²‐C₂H₄)₂] 2 with ^tBu₂P–P 4 (generated from ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ 3 ) by elimination of one C₂H₄ ligand and coupling of the phosphinophosphinidene with the second one. The structure of 1 is proven by ³¹P, ¹³C, ¹H NMR spectra and the X‐ray structure analysis. Within the ligand ^tBu₂P¹P²C¹H–CH₃ in 1 , the angle P1–P2–C1 amounts to 90°. The Co, P1, P2, C1 atoms in 1 look like a „butterfly”︁. The reaction of 2 with a mixture of ^tBu₂P–P=P(Me)^tBu₂ 3 and ^tBu–C?P 5 yields [Co(η⁵‐Me₅C₅){η⁴‐(^tBuCP)₂}] 6 and 1 . While 6 is spontaneously formed, 1 appears only after complete consumption of 5 .

P}Pt(PEtPh₂)₂] [η²-{^tBu₂P? P}Pt(PPh₃)₂ 1 and [η²-{^tBu₂P? P}Pt(PEtPh₂)₂] 2 are the first complex compounds of ^tBu₂P? P 5 . They are formed in the reaction of ^tBu₂P? P ? P(Me)^tBu₂ 3 with [η²-{H₂C ? CH₂}Pt(PPh₃)₂] 6 or [η²-{H₂C ? CH₂}Pt(PEtPh₂)₂] 7 , respectively. Compound 1 is less stable than 2 and reacts on to [η²-{^tBu₂P? P} Pt(PPh₃)(P^tBu₂Me)] 10 with the coincidently formed ^tBu₂PMe. The molecular structures of 1 and 2 were derived from their ¹H and ³¹P-NMR spectra, 2 was additionally characterized by a X ray structure determination. 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n with a = 1222.36(7) pm, b = 1770.7(1) pm, c = 1729.7(1) pm, β = 108.653(6)°.     

Komplexchemie P-reicher Phosphane und Silylphosphane. VII. Carbonylkomplexe des Heptaphosphans(3) iPr2(Me3Si)P7

Transition Metal Complexes of P-rich Phosphanes and Silylphosphanes. VII Carbonyl Complexes of the Heptaphosphane(3) iPr₂(Me₃Si)P₇ From the reaction of iPr₂(Me₃Si)P₇ 1 with one equivalent of Cr(CO)₅THF the yellow products iPr₂(H)P₇[Cr(CO)₅] 2 and iPr₂(Me₃Si)P₇[Cr(CO)₅] 3 were isolated by column chromatography on silicagel. The P? H group in 2 results from a cleavage of the P? SiMe₃ bond during chromatography. The Cr(CO)₅ group in 2 is linked to an iPr? P^e atom, in 3 to the Me₃Si? P^e atom of the P₇ skeleton. The substituents do not force the formation of a single isomer; nevertheless 3 ist considerably favoured as compared to 2 . From the reaction of 1 with 2 equivalents of Cr(CO)₅THF the yellow iPr₂(H)P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₂ 4 was isolated bearing one Cr(CO)₅ group at an iPr? P^e atom, the other one at a P^b atom of the P₇ skeleton. Compound 3 yields with Cr(CO)₄NBD the red iPr₂(Me₃Si)P₇[Cr(CO)₅][Cr(CO)₄] 5 . Three isomers of 5 appear. Two P^e atoms of 5 are bridged by the Cr(CO)₄ group, the third P^e atom is linked to the Cr(CO)₅ ligand. iPr₂(H)P₇[Fe(CO)₄] was isolated from the reaction of 1 with Fe₂(CO)₉. ³¹P NMR and MS data are reported.     

Komplexchemie at P-reicher Phosphane und Silylphosphane. VI. Bildung und Struktur der Chromcarbonylkomplexe des Tris(trimethylsilyl) heptaphosphanortricyclans (Me3Si)3P7

Formation and Structures of Chromium Carbonyl Complexes of Tris(trimethylsily)heptanortricyclane (Me₃Si)₃P₇ (Me₃Si)₃P₇ 1 reacts with one equivalent of Cr(Co)₅THF 2 to give the yellow (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(Co)₅] 4. The Cr(Co)₅group is attached to a P^e atom. Yellow (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₂ 5 is obtained either from reacting 1 with two equivalents of 2 , or from 4 with one equivalent of 2. One Cr(CO)₅ groups in 5 is coordinated to a P^e atom, the other one to a P,^b atom. Similarly, Yellow (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₃ 6 results from reacting 5 with one equivalent of 2 . Two Cr(CO)₅ groups in 6 are linked to P^b atoms, and the third one either to a P^e or the P^a atom (assignment not completely clear). Derivatives containing a P^e bridge appear in reactions of 1 with higher amounts of 2 . Such, 5 forms mixtures of the red compounds (Me₃Si)₃P₇ × [Cr(CO)₅]₂[Cr(CO)₄] 8 and (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅] × [Cr(CO)₄] 9 , and even preferably 9 with four equivalents of 2 . In 8 , one Cr(CO)₅ group is attached to that p^e atom which is not engaged in the Cr(CO)₄ bridge, and the second to one of the P^b atoms directly adjacent to the bridge. The additional Cr(CO)₅ group in 9 is coordinated to the remaining P^b atom directly adjacent to the bridge. In reactions of 5 with even higher amounts of 2 , four Cr(CO)₅ groups and one Cr(CO)₄ bridge attach to the basic P₇ skeleton to from the less stable Me₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₄[Cr(CO)₄]. (Me₃Si)₃P₇ 1 reacts considerably slower with Cr(CO)₅THF 2 than R₃P₇ (R = Et, iPr). Cr(CO)₄NBD 3 reacts with 1 , but it was not possible to isolate (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₄]. However, 4 with 3 forms (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅][Cr(CO)₄] 7 , and 5 with 3 yields (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₂[Cr(CO)₄] 8 . The structures of 4 , 5 , 7 , 8 or 9 are quite analogous to those of the derivatives of Et₃P₇ but there exist significant differences in stability and reactivity. While Et₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₂ in solution rearranges to give the stable Et₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅][Cr(CO)₄], the analogous (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅][Cr(CO)₄] 7 is not stable and is not obtained from (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₂ 5 . Et₃P₇[Cr(CO)5]₃ can just be detected spectroscopically and rearranges easily to give Et₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₂ [Cr(CO)₄] whereas (Me₃Si)₃P₇[Cr(CO)₅]₃ 6 can be isolated. These differences are caused by the greater steric requirements of Me₃Si groups. The formation of a P^e–Cr(CO)₄–P^e bridge, e.g., requires a Me₃Si group in 1 to switch from the s to the as position. Whereas many of the complex compounds of R₃P₇ (R = Et, iPr) crystallize easily, the analogous derivatives of (Me₃Si)₃P₇ did not yield crystals. The structures of the products were assigned by evaluating the coordination shift in their ₃₁P NMR spectra and by comparision of these spectra with those of such derivatives of Et₃P₇ which previously had been investigated by single crystal structure determinations.

(R ? SiMe₃, R′ ? Cr(CO)₅) and solvated Li⁺ cations. The zigzag shaped dianion possesses the symmetry 1 -C_i. The distances d(P? P) = 202.5(1)pm and d(P? P) = 221.9(1)pm correspond to a double bond and single bonds, respectively. The distances d(Cr? P) = 251.1(1) pm and 255.3(1) pm are larger than those observed so far which might be caused by the charge distribution in the dianion.

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.
