Reactions of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate with hydridoalkynyl complexes of palladium(II) and platinum(II)

Reaction of trans-HM(PEt₃)₂ (CCC₆H₅) (M = Pt, Pd) with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate has given rans-{(CH₃O₂C)HC=C(CO₂CH₃)}M(PEt₃)₂ (CCC₆H₅). It is suggested that oligomerization of a terminal acetylene proceeds through an alkynylalkenyl derivative.     

Substituted imidazole complexes of platinum(IV) halides

Platinum(IV) halides formed complexes of the type PtL₂X₄ [L=1-vinyl imidazole (1,-VIm), 1-methylimidazole (1-MeIm), 1,2-dimethylimidazole (1,2-Me₂Im), 1-vinyl-2-methylimidazole (1-V-2-MeIm), 2-methylimidazole (2-MeIm), 2-ethylimidazole (2-EtIm), 2-isopropylimidazole (2-i-PrIm), and 4-methylimidazole (4-MeIm); X=Cl, Br] in neutral aqueous solution. The 1-n-butylimidazole (1-n-BuIm) ligand yielded only (LH)₂PtX₆ compound in the same medium. The compounds were characterised by elemental analyses, IR, UV-VIS and ¹HNMR spectra.     

Studies of the reactions of platinum halo complexes with tin(II) halides

The reaction of a dichloromethane solution of a mixture of cis,trans-[PtCl₂(SMe₂)₂] with a tetrahydrofuran solution of SnBr₂ resulted in oxidation of platinum(II) with halogen exchange producing cis,trans-[PtBr₄(SMe₂)₂]. Reaction of a mixture of cis,trans-[PtCl₂(SEt₂)₂], potassium tetrachloroplatinate(II) or potassium hexachloroplatinate(IV) with SnBr₂ in hydrochloric acid solution resulted in formation of predominantly anionic five-coordinate trichlorostannyl platinum(II) complexes. Reaction of potassium tetrabromoplatinate(II) with SnCl₂ in hydrobromic acid in the presence of tetraphenylphosphonium bromide affords cis-[PPh₄]₂[PtBr₂(SnBr₃)₂]. The insertion of SnCl₂ into Pt–Cl bond of platinum(II) complexes cis-[PtCl₂(L₂)] {L₂ = (PPh₃)₂; (PMe₃)₂; {P(OMe)₃}₂; dppm (bis(diphenylphosphino)methane); dppa (bis(diphenylphosphino)amine); and dppe (1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane)} is described.     

The infrared spectra of imidazole complexes of platinum(II) halides and nitrite

Summary The i.r. spectra (4000-90 cm^–1) of the [Pt(Him)₄]X₂ complexes (Him = imidazole, X = Cl, Br or I) andcis- andtrans-[Pt(Him)₂X₂] (X = Cl, Br, I or NO₂) and their D₃-labelled analogues have been determined. The distinction between the ring and C-H (or N-H) modes of imidazole is based on the relative shifts which these bands undergo on D₃-labelling. Assignments, based on the effects of imidazole deuteriation and halide substitution, are provided for the v(Pt-Him) and v(Pt-X) modes.     

Mixed unsymmetric oxadiazoline and/or imine platinum(II) complexes

Iminoacylation of acetone oxime Me(2)C[double bond, length as m-dash]NOH upon reaction with trans-[PtCl(2)(NCCH(2)CO(2)Me)(2)] and [2 + 3] cycloaddition of acyclic nitrone (-)O(+)N(Me) = C(H)(C(6)H(4)Me-4) to a nitrile ligand in lead to the formation of mono-imine trans-[PtCl(2)(imine-a)(NCCH(2)CO(2)Me)] [imine-a = NH[double bond, length as m-dash]C(CH(2)CO(2)Me)ON = CMe(2)] and mono-oxadiazoline trans-[PtCl(2)(oxadiazoline-a)(NCCH(2)CO(2)Me)] [oxadiazoline-a = [upper bond 1 start]N[double bond, length as m-dash]C(CH(2)CO(2)Me)ON(Me)C[upper bond 1 end](H)(C(6)H(4)Me-4)] unsymmetric mixed ligand complexes, respectively, as the main products. Reactions of or with acetone oxime , cyclic nitrone (-)O(+)N = CHCH(2)CH(2)C[upper bond 1 end]Me(2) or N,N-diethylhydroxylamine give access, in moderate to good yields, to the unsymmetric mixed ligand oxadiazoline and/or imine complexes trans-[PtCl(2)(oxadiazoline-a)(imine-a)] , trans-[PtCl(2)(oxadiazoline-a)(oxadiazoline-b)] [oxadiazoline-b = [upper bond 1 start]N[double bond, length as m-dash]C(CH(2)CO(2)Me)O[lower bond 1 start]NC[upper bond 1 end](H)CH(2)CH(2)C[lower bond 1 end]Me(2)], trans-[PtCl(2)(imine-a)(imine-b)] [imine-b = NH = C(CH(2)CO(2)Me)ONEt(2)] or trans-[PtCl(2)(imine-a)(oxadiazoline-b)] . The cis mono-imine mixed ligand complex cis-[PtCl(2)(imine-a)(NCCH(2)CO(2)Me)] is the major product from the reaction of cis-[PtCl(2)(NCCH(2)CO(2)Me)(2)] with the oxime , while the di-imine compound cis-[PtCl(2)(imine-a)(2)] is a minor product. Reaction of cis-[PtCl(2)(imine-a)(NCCH(2)CO(2)Me)] with N,N-diethylhydroxylamine or the cyclic nitrone affords, in good yields, the unsymmetric mixed ligand complexes cis-[PtCl(2)(imine-a)(imine-b)] or cis-[PtCl(2)(imine-a)(oxadiazoline-b)] , respectively. All these complexes were characterized by elemental analyses, IR and (1)H, (13)C and (195)Pt NMR spectroscopies, and FAB(+)-MS. The X-ray structural analysis of trans-[PtCl(2){NH=C(CH(2)CO(2)Me)ON=CMe(2)}(NCCH(2)CO(2)Me)] is also reported.     

Organoplumbio complexes of platinum(II)

The complex [Pt(C₂H₄)(PPh₃)₂] reacts with Pb₂Ph₆ to give cis-[PtPh(Pb₂Ph₅)(PPh₃)₂]; this decomposes in solution to cis-[PtPh(PbPh₃)(PPh₃)₂], which may also be obtained from the ethylene complex and PbPh₄. Lead compounds PbPhMe₃ and PbPh₃Br also give products of insertion into PbPh bonds, but PbMe₃Cl gives cis- and trans-[PtCl(PbMe₃)(PPh₃)₂]. The complex trans-[Pt(PbPh₃)₂(PEt₃)₂] reacts with 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane (DPPE) to give [Pt(PbPh₃)₂(DPPE)] which readily decomposes in dichloromethane in presence of PEt₃ to give [Pt(PbPh₃)(PEt₃)(DPPE)]Cl and [PtPh(PEt₃)(DPPE)]Cl. The complex trans-[PtCl(PbPh₃)(PEt₃)₂] was detected in the products of reactions between trans-[PtCl₂(PEt₃)₂] and trans-[Pt(PbPh₃)₂(PEt₃)₂] or less than 2 moles of LiPbPh₃; it was not detected in the mixture after treatment of trans -[Pt(PbPh₃)₂(PEt₃)₂] with HCl. In contrast to an earlier report, we were unable to detect lead-containing complexes in the products of the reaction between trans-[PtHCl(PPh₃)₂] and Ph₃PbNO₃. The complexes and their decomposition products were identified by ^pre31P-{¹H} NMR spectroscopy.     

Mixed ligand complexes of palladium(II) and platinum(II) with methionine and 2,4-disubstituted pyrimidines

Summary Mixed ligand complexes ofcis-[M(MetH)Cl₂] (M=Pd²⁺ and Pt²⁺; MetH=methionine) with 2,4-disubstituted pyrimidines were prepared and characterised. Thecis-[Pd(MetH)Cl₂] complex reacted with cytosine (2-hydroxy-4-aminopyrimidine), isocytosine (2-amino-4-hydroxypyrimidine) and thiocytosine (2-thio-4-amino-pyrimidine) to form ternary complexes.cis-[Pt(MetH)Cl₂] however reacted with cytosine, uracil (2,4-pyrimidine dione or 2,4-dihydroxypyrimidine) to yield the corresponding mixed ligand complexes. The primary ligand, methionine, binds to the metal ion through sulphur and amino nitrogenvia a six membered chelate ring. The secondary ligands (substituted pyrimidines) bind to the Pd²⁺ or Pt²⁺ metal ion through the ring nitrogen (N₃), as monodentate ligand. Thiocytosine however acts as a bidentate ligand, coordinating to the metal ion through-SH and ring nitrogen (N₃). All complexes are 11 electrolytes, except the thiocytosine complex, which is a 12 electrolyte.     

Reactivity of diacetylplatinum(II) complexes: oxidative addition of alkyl halides and crystal structures of acetyl platinum(IV) complexes

Diacetylplatinum(II) complexes [Pt(COMe)₂(N^N)] (N^N = bpy, 3a; 4,4′-t-Bu₂-bpy, 3b) were found to undergo oxidative addition reactions with organyl halides. The reaction of 3a with methyl iodide and propargyl bromide led to the formation of the cis addition products (OC-6-34)-[Pt(COMe)₂(R)X(bpy)] (R = Me, X = I, 4a; CH₂C≡CH, X = Br, 4k). Analogous reactions of 3a with ethyl iodide, benzyl bromide, and substituted benzyl bromides, 3-(bromomethyl)pyridine, 2-(bromomethyl)thiophene, allyl bromide, and cyclohex-2-enyl bromide led to exclusive formation of the trans addition products (OC-6-43)-[Pt(COMe)₂(R)X(bpy)] (X = I, R = Et, 4b; X = Br, R = CH₂C₆H₅, 4c; CH₂C₆H₄(o-Br), 4d; CH₂C₆H₄(p-COOH), 4e; CH₂-3-py (3-pyridylmethyl), 4f; CH₂-2-tp (2-thiophenylmethyl), 4g; CH₂CH=CH₂, 4h; c-hex-2-enyl (cyclohex-2-enyl), 4i). All complexes 4 were characterized by microanalysis, ¹H and ¹³C NMR and IR spectroscopy. Additionally, complexes 4a, 4f, and 4g were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Reactions of 3a and 3b with o-, m- and p-bis(bromomethyl)benzene, respectively, led to the formation of dinuclear platinum(IV) complexes [{Pt(COMe)₂Br(N^N)}₂-{μ-(CH₂)₂C₆H₄}] (5). These complexes were characterized by microanalysis, IR spectroscopy, and depending on their solubility by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, too. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of complex [{Pt(COMe)₂Br(bpy)}₂{μ-m-(CH₂)₂C₆H₄}] (5b) confirmed its dinuclear composition. The solid-state structures of 4a, 4f, 4g, and 5b are discussed in terms of C–H···O and O–H···O hydrogen bonds as well as π–π stacking between aromatic rings.     

Organometallic formate complexes of platinum(II)

The compounds trans-[Pt(OCHO)R(PPh₃)₂] (R = C₆Cl₅; 2,3,4,6-C₆HCl₄; 2,3,4,5-C₆HCl₄; 2,5-C₆H₃Cl₂) have been prepared by treatment of [PtIR(PPh₃)₂] with AgClO₄ followed by reaction with NaOCHO in methanol. The cis isomers have been obtained by the direct reaction of HCO₂H with compounds containing PtHg bonds. For these and the analogous compounds containing C₆F₅ ligands, the dependence of J(³¹P¹⁹⁵Pt) on R has been studied, and the effects of cis-R shown to be in the opposite direction from those of trans-R ligands.     

Cationic pentafluorophenyl complexes of platinum(II)

The complex [O₃ClOPt(C₆F₅)(PEt₃)₂] which we have prepared for the first time, is used as a precursor of a series of cationic complexes [LPt(C₆F₅)(PEt₃)₂]ClO₄ (L = PEt₃, AsPh₃, H₂O, CO, OPPh₃, SPPh₃, HNPr₂, py), which are easily obtained by adding L to the perchlorato complex.     

Mixed ligand complexes of platinum(0) containing diphosphines

The reaction of PtCl₂L (L = diphosphine) with the appropriate diphosphine L′ in ethanol followed by reduction with aqueous sodium borohydride leads to either disproportionation to give mixtures of the bis(diphosphine) complexes PtL₂ and PtL′₂ or to the formation of the mixed ligand complex PtLL′ depending on the diphosphines. Mixed ligand complexes are obtained when L=Ph₂P(CH₂)₂PPh₂, L′ = Ph₂P(CH₂PPh₂cis-Ph₂PCH CHPPh₂, Ph₂P(CH₂)₂AsPh₂, Ph₂- P(CH₂)₄PPh₂, o-Ph₂PC₆H₄PPh₂; and L=(C₆H₁₁)₂P(CH₂₂P(C₆H₁₁)₂, L′= Ph₂P(CH₂)PPh₂, Ph₂P(CH₂)₂PPh₂cis-Ph₂PCHCHPPh₂, (2S,3S)-Ph₂PCH- (CH₃)CH(CH₃)PPh₂, (R)-Ph₂PCH(CH₃)CH₂PPh₂. When L=Ph₂P(CH₂)₄PPh₂ L′= Ph₂P(CH₂₃PPh₂ or cis-Ph₂PCHCHRPh₂ the mixed ligand complexes are obtained but extensive disproportionation also occurs.     

Luminescence of ortho-metallated platinum(II) complexes

The absorption spectra, emission spectra, and emission lifetimes of Pt(Phpy)₂, Pt(Thpy)₂, and Pt(Bhq)₂ complexes (Phpy⁻, Thpy⁻, and Bhq⁻ are the ortho C-deprotonated forms of 2-phenylpyridine, 2-(2-thienyl)-pyridine, and benzo(h)quinoline) have been studied and compared with those of the C-protonated neutral ligands. For all complexes examined the low-energy absorption bands in the near UV and visible region are assigned to metal-to-ligand charge-transfer transitions. The strong and structured luminescence emissions observed in the 500–600 nm region (lifetime in the microsecond range at 77 K) are assigned to metal-to-ligand charge-transfer excited states.     

Red electrophosphorescent platinum(II) quinolinolate complexes

Abstract  

Luminescent organoplatinum complexes featuring 8-quinolinolates as chelating ligands have been synthesized and characterized. Substitution of the quinolinolate ligand has been achieved in the 5 position, where benzoyl substituents were introduced by reacting 8-hydroxyquinoline and the corresponding benzoyl chloride in a Friedel–Crafts acylation. The resulting complexes, κ²(N,C²)-(2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)pyridine)-κ²(N,O)-(5-(4-tert-butylphenyl)(8-quinolinolato-5-yl)methanone)platinum(II) and κ²(N,C²)-(3-hexyloxy-2-phenylpyridine)-κ²(N,O)-((8-quinolinolato-5-yl)phenylmethanone)platinum(II), have been investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry, X-ray analysis, thermal analysis, cyclic voltammetry, UV–vis absorption spectroscopy, and luminescence measurements in solution and in the solid state. The solid-state structures of the complexes were found to be dominated by π–π intermolecular interactions. Organic light-emitting devices based on the complexes and a matching host material gave red to near-infrared electroluminescence with low-onset voltages (4–5 V) and continuous wave luminance intensities exceeding 500 cd/m².
