Preparation and X-ray structures of Cu(I), Ni(II), and Pd(II) (N,S) complexes of the monoanion [(tBuN)(S)P(mu-N(t)Bu)2P(S)(NH(t)Bu)]- and a Pt(II) (S,S') complex of the dianion [((t)BuN)(S)P(mu-N(t)Bu)2P(S)(N(t)Bu)]2-

The metathetical reactions of the lithium derivative of the monoanion [((t)BuN)(S)P(mu-N(t)Bu)(2)P(S)(NH(t)Bu)](-) (L) with CuCl/PPh(3), NiCl(2)(PEt(3))(2), PdCl(2)L'(2) (L' = PhCN, PPh(3)), and PtCl(2)(PEt(3))(2) produced the complexes (PPh(3))CuL (5), NiL(2) (6), PdCl(L)(PPh(3)) (7), PdL(2) (8), and Pt(PEt(3))(2)[((t)BuN)(S)P(mu-N(t)Bu)(2)P(S)(N(t)Bu)] (9). The X-ray structures of 5, 6, and 8 reveal a N,S-coordination for the chelating monoanion L with the metal centers in trigonal planar, tetrahedral, and square planar environments, respectively. By contrast, the dianionic ligand in the square planar Pt(II) complex 9 is S,S'-chelated to the metal center. (31)P NMR spectra readily distinguish between the N,S and S,S' bonding modes, and, on that basis, N,S chelation is inferred for the Pd(II) complex 7. Crystal data: 5, monoclinic, P2(1)/c, a = 19.175(4) A, b = 20.331(4) A, c = 10.017(6) A, beta = 91.79(3) degrees, V = 3903(2) A(3), and Z = 4; 6, orthorhombic, Pbcn, a = 14.298(5) A, b = 15.333(5) A, c = 24.378(5) A, beta = 90.000(5) degrees, V = 5344(3) A(3), and Z = 4; 8, monoclinic, P2(1)/n, a = 13.975(3) A, b = 14.283(3) A, c = 15.255(4) A, beta = 116.565(18) degrees, V = 2723.5(11) A(3), and Z = 2; 9, monoclinic, P2(1)/n, a = 12.479(6) A, b = 21.782(7) A, c = 17.048(5) A, beta = 100.30(3) degrees, V = 4559(3) A(3), and Z = 4.     

Synthesis and structure of the calixarene-like phosph(III)azane macrocycle [{P(mu-N(t)Bu)}2{1,5-(NH)2C10H6}]3

The reaction of [ClP(mu-NtBu)]2 with 1,5-diamino-naphthalene [1,5-(NH2)2C10H6] in Et3N-thf gives the trimeric macrocycle [{P(mu-NtBu)}2{1,5-(NH)2C10H6}]3(1); the X-ray structure of the toluene solvate 1.3toluene reveals a cone-shaped (calixarene-like) arrangement in which toluene guest molecules are trapped within the cavity.     

One-dimensional coordination polymers incorporating silver(I) perfluorocarboxylate cuboctahedral clusters and the bis(methylthio)methane ligand

Two topologically comparable complexes, [Ag6(CF3CO2)3(L1-Me)3(SCH3)3]infinity (1) and [Ag6(CF3CF2CO2)3(L1-Me)2(SCH3)3(H2O)]infinity (2), were prepared and characterized by single-crystal diffractometry. The structures consist of Ag12S6 clusters linked by bis(methylthio)methane ligands, L1-Me, thus forming 1D coordination polymers. The 12 Ag atoms of the cluster are situated at the corners of a distorted cuboctahedron. The sulfur atoms of the six mu4-SCH3 entities occupy a position approximately 0.8 A above the center of each of the square faces of the polyhedron. The cleavage of the C-S bond of some of the ligands occurs during the syntheses, producing the -SCH3 anions. The coordination of the silver atoms varies from 5 to 7. The Ag...Ag contacts range from 2.9250(5) to 3.3615(6) A and from 2.961(1) to 3.380(1) A for 1 and 2, respectively. A polymeric ribbon is obtained when four ligands link a given cluster to two others. The chains of 1, held only by van der Waals forces, pack in a hexagonal manner. The two water molecules in 2 (Ag-OH2 = 2.385(7) A) are coordinated to silver atoms of the cluster. They are also strongly hydrogen bonded to the oxygen atoms of two pentafluoropropionate groups, one within the cluster (O...O = 2.741(1) A), the other in an adjacent chain (O...O = 2.818(1) A). The chains, thus H bonded to one another, generate a 2D coordination network.     

Anion-dependent silver(I) coordination polymers of the tridentate pyridylphosphonite: PPh(3-OCH2C5H4N)2

Three new multidimensional coordination polymers have been constructed from the reaction of AgX, where X = OTf-, BF4-, or tfa-, with the novel phosphonite PhP(3-OCH2C5H4N)2, PCP-32, 1. It is seen that regardless of the ratio of reactants mixed, polymeric growth of the compounds always reveals a ligand-to-metal ratio of 1:2 for PCP-32AgOTf, 2, 1:1 for PCP-32AgBF4, 3, and 1:2 for PCP-32Ag(tfa), 4. The coordination number, metal environment, ligand conformation, and polymer dimensionality are found to vary greatly from 2 to 4 and are dependent upon the anion present. Coordination numbers from 2 to 4, representing linear, trigonal, and distorted tetrahedral environments are displayed. PCP-32AgOTf polymerizes as a linear chain containing both two- and four-coordinate silvers, PCP-32AgBF4 repeats a single trigonal motif throughout its structure, and PCP-32Ag(tfa) shows two unique distorted tetrahedral silver centers. Ligand flexibility allows for cross-ligand Ag-Ag distances to range from 3.1918(8) to 14.015(2) A. The coordination polymers have been characterized by elemental analysis, variable-temperature multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and fluorometric studies.     

New superhindered polydentate polyphosphine ligands P(CH2CH2P(t)Bu2)3, PhP(CH2CH2P(t)Bu2)2, P(CH2CH2CH2P(t)Bu2)3, and their ruthenium(II) chloride complexes

The synthesis and characterization of the extremely hindered phosphine ligands, P(CH(2)CH(2)P(t)Bu(2))(3) (P(2)P(3)(tBu), 1), PhP(CH(2)CH(2)P(t)Bu(2))(2) (PhP(2)P(2)(tBu), 2), and P(CH(2)CH(2)CH(2)P(t)Bu(2))(3) (P(3)P(3)(tBu), 3) are reported, along with the synthesis and characterization of ruthenium chloro complexes RuCl(2)(P(2)P(3)(tBu)) (4), RuCl(2)(PhP(2)P(2)(tBu)) (5), and RuCl(2)(P(3)P(3)(tBu)) (6). The bulky P(2)P(3)(tBu) (1) and P(3)P(3)(tBu) (3) ligands are the most sterically encumbered PP(3)-type ligands so far synthesized, and in all cases, only three phosphorus donors are able to bind to the metal center. Complexes RuCl(2)(PhP(2)P(2)(tBu)) (5) and RuCl(2)(P(3)P(3)(tBu)) (6) were characterized by crystallography. Low temperature solution and solid state (31)P{(1)H} NMR were used to demonstrate that the structure of RuCl(2)(P(2)P(3)(tBu)) (4) is probably analogous to that of RuCl(2)(PhP(2)P(2)(tBu)) (5) which had been structurally characterized.     

Thioether-functionalized ferrocenyl-bis(phosphonite), Fe{(C5H4)P(-OC10H6(micro-S)C10H6O-)}2: synthesis, coordination behavior, and application in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions

The thioether-functionalized metalloligand ferrocenyl-bis(phosphonite), Fe(C5H4PR)2 (4, R=-OC10H6(micro-S)C10H6O-) is synthesized in three steps starting from ferrocene, and its coordination behavior toward various transition-metal derivatives is described. The reactions of 4 with [Rh(CO)2Cl]2 or M(COD)Cl2 afforded the chelate complexes, cis-[Rh(CO)Cl{Fe(C5H4PR)2-kappaP,kappaP}] (5) or cis-[MCl2{Fe(C5H4PR)2-kappaP,kappaP}] (6, M=PdII; 7, M=PtII), respectively. However, treatment of 4 with CuX (X=Cl, Br, and I) produces binuclear complexes, [Cu2(micro-X)2(MeCN){Fe(C5H4PR)2-kappaP,kappaP}] (8, X=Cl; 9, X=Br; 10, X=I) where the sulfur atom on one side of the ligand is involved in a weak interaction with the copper center. Reaction of 4 with 1 equiv of Ag(PPh3)OTf gives the mononuclear chelate complex [Ag(OTf)PPh3{Fe(C5H4PR)2-kappaP,kappaP}] (11), whereas treatment with 2 equiv of AuCl(SMe2) produces the dinuclear gold complex [Au(Cl){Fe(C5H4PR)2-kappaP,kappaP}Au(Cl)] (12). The crystal structures of 10 and 12 are reported, where a strong metallophilic interaction is observed between the closed-shell metal centers. The palladium complex 6 catalyzes the Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of aryl bromides with phenylboronic acid with excellent turnover numbers (TON up to 1.36x10(5)).

Self-assembly of an Unprecedented Cynao-bridged One-dimensional 4f-3d Complex[Eu(DMF)4(H2O)2Cr(CN)6] H2O

Recently, there has been considerable interest in cyano-bridged lanthanide(Ⅲ) hexacyanometalate(Ⅲ) complexes LnM(CN)₆·nH₂O (M=Fe, Cr and Co) because of their potential as catalytic, semiconductive, and magnetic materials.^[1-8] In this study, we employed N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) as a hybrid ligand to construct a bimetallic complex[Eu(DMF)₄(H₂O)₂Cr(CN)₆]·H₂O. It was synthesized as yellow crystals by the self-assembly of anhydrous EuCl₃ and (Bu₄N)₃[Cr(CN)₆] in MeOH and DMF. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis shows that it consists of a cyano-bridged chain structure. The Eu atom is eight-coordinate with a distorted bicapped square antiprism geometry. Six oxygen atoms of two water molecules and four DMF molecules and two nitrogen atoms of the bridging CN ligands are bound to Eu with the Eu-O distance ranging from 2.368(7) to 2.447(8) Å. The bridging cyanides coordinate to the Europium(Ⅲ) ion[N(l)-Eu=2.543(9) Å and N(3)-EuA=2.543(8) Å] in a bent fashion with the bond angles of 164.0(9) for C(1)-N(1)-Nd and 155.1(7)。for C(3)-N(3)-EuA (A denotes the symmetry transformation:-x+l,y-l/2,-z+3/2). Each Cr(CN)₆ coordinates to two Eu(Ⅲ) ions using two cis cyanide ligands, while each Eu(DMF)₄(H₂O)₂ group connects two Cr(CN)₆ moieties in a cis fashion, giving rise to an unprecedented chain structure. Crystal data:monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, a=13.151(2), b=12.905(2), c=19.186(2) Å, β=109.70(1)°, V=3065.5(7) ų,Z=4, ρ_obs=1.531 Mg m^-3, S=1.024,R1=0.0540, R_w=0.1616.     

Influence of hydrogen bonding on the assembly of six-membered vanadium borophosphate cluster anions: synthesis and structures of (NH4)2(C2H10N2)6[Sr(H2O)5]2[V2P2BO12](6)10H2O, (NH4)2(C3H12N2)6[Sr(H2O)4]2[V2P2BO12](6)17H2O, and (NH4)3(C4H14N2)4 5[Sr(H2O)5]2[Sr(H2O)4][V2P2BO12]6 10H2O

Three new strontium vanadium borophosphate compounds, (NH4)2(C2H10N2)6[Sr(H2O)5]2[V2P2BO12]6 10H2O (Sr-VBPO1) (1), (NH4)2(C3H12N2)6[Sr(H2O)4]2[V2P2BO12]6 17H2O (Sr-VBPO2) (2), and (NH4)3(C4H14N2)4.5[Sr(H2O)5]2[Sr(H2O)4][V2P2BO12]6 10H2O (Sr-VBPO3) (3) have been synthesized by interdiffusion methods in the presence of diprotonated ethylenediamine, 1,3-diaminopropane, and 1,4-diaminobutane. Compound 1 has a chain structure, whereas 2 and 3 have layered structures with different arrangements of [(NH4) [symbol: see text] [V2P2BO12]6] cluster anions within the layers. Crystal data: (NH4)2(C2H10N2)6[Sr(H2O)5]2[V2P2BO12]6 10H2O, monoclinic, space group C2/c (no. 15), a = 21.552(1) A, b = 27.694(2) A, c = 20.552(1) A, beta = 113.650(1) degrees, Z = 4; (NH4)2(C3H12N2)6[Sr(H2O)4]2[V2P2BO12]6 17H2O, monoclinic, space group I2/m (no. 12), a = 15.7618(9) A, b = 16.4821(9) A, c = 21.112(1) A, beta = 107.473(1) degrees, Z = 2; (NH4)3(C4H14N2)4.5[Sr(H2O)5]2[Sr(H2O)4] [V2P2BO12]6 10H2O, monoclinic, space group C2/c (no. 15), a = 39.364(2) A, b = 14.0924(7) A, c = 25.342(1) A, beta = 121.259(1) degrees, Z = 4. The differences in the three structures arise from the different steric requirements of the amines that lead to different amine-cluster hydrogen bonds.     

Homochiral and heterochiral coordination polymers and networks of silver(I)

The self-assembly of racemic and enantiopure binaphthylbis(amidopyridyl) ligands 1,1'-C(20)H(12){NHC(O)-4-C(5)H(4)N}(2), 1, and 1,1'-C(20)H(12){NHC(O)-3-C(5)H(4)N}(2), 2, with silver(I) salts (AgX; X = CF(3)CO(2), CF(3)SO(3), NO(3)) to form extended metal-containing arrays is described. It is shown that the self-assembly with racemic ligands can lead to homochiral or heterochiral polymers, through self-recognition or self-discrimination of the ligand units. The primary polymeric materials adopt helical conformations (secondary structure), and they undergo further self-assembly to form sheets or networks (tertiary structure). These secondary and tertiary structures are controlled through secondary bonding interactions between pairs of silver(I) centers, between silver cations and counteranions, or through hydrogen bonding involving amide NH groups. The self-assembly of the enantiopure ligand R-1 with silver trifluoroacetate gave a remarkable three-dimensional chiral, knitted network composed of polymer chains in four different supramolecular isomeric forms.     

One-dimensional silver(I) 5,5-diethylbarbiturato coordination polymers with N-piperidineethanol and 1,3-bis(4-piperidyl)propane: Syntheses,crystal structures,spectroscopic and thermal properties

Two new coordination polymers, [Ag₂(barb)(pipet)]_n (1) and {Na₃[Ag₂(barb)₂](pippr)·2H₂O}_n (2) (where H₂barb, pipet and Hpippr are 5,5-diethylbarbituric acid, N-piperidineethanol and 1,3-bis(4-piperidyl)propane, respectively) have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR, thermal analysis and X-ray single-crystal diffraction techniques. Silver(I) ions in complexes 1 and 2 are bridged by barb dianions, leading to one-dimensional coordination polymers. In 1, the barb ligand acts as a tetradentate bridging ligand, while in 2 as a bidendate bridging ligand. The pipet ligand behaves as a bidentate chelating donor, whereas the pippr anion is not involved in coordination and remains as a counter-ion. The one-dimensional chains of 1 and 2 are further extended into supramolecular networks. Spectral and thermal analysis data for 1 and 2 are in agreement with the crystal structures.

Three-, two-, and one-dimensional metal phosphonates based on [hydroxy(4-pyridyl)methyl]phosphonate: M{(4-C5H4N)CH(OH)PO3}(H2O) (M = Ni, Cd) and Gd{(4-C5H4N)CH(OH)P(OH)O2}3.6H2O

Based on the [hydroxy(4-pyridyl)methyl]phosphonate ligand, three compounds with formula Ni{(4-C(5)H(4)N)CH(OH)PO(3)}(H(2)O) (1), Cd{(4-C(5)H(4)N)CH(OH)PO(3)}(H(2)O) (2), and Gd{(4-C(5)H(4)N)CH(OH)P(OH)O(2)}(3).6H(2)O (3) have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. The crystal data for 1 are as follows: orthorhombic, space group Pbca, a = 8.7980(13) A, b = 10.1982(15) A, and c = 17.945(3) A. For 2 the crystal data are as follows: monoclinic, space group C2/c, a = 23.344(6) Angstroms, b = 5.2745(14) Angstroms, c = 16.571(4) Angstroms, and beta = 121.576(4) degrees. The crystal data for 3 are as follows: rhombohedral, space group R, a = 22.2714(16) Angstroms, b = 22.2714(16) Angstroms, and c = 9.8838(11) Angstroms. Compound 1 adopts a three-dimensional pillared layered structure in which the inorganic layers made up of corner-sharing {NiO(5)N} octahedra and {CPO(3)} tetrahedra are connected by pyridyl groups. A two-dimensional layer structure is found in compound 2, which contains alternating inorganic double chains and pyridyl rings. Compound 3 has a one-dimensional chain structure where the Gd atoms are triply bridged by O-P-O linkages. The pyridyl nitrogen atom in 3 remains uncoordinated and is involved in the interchain hydrogen bonds. Magnetic susceptibility studies of 1 and 3 reveal that weak ferromagnetic interactions are mediated between Ni(II) centers in compound 1. For compound 3, the behavior is principally paramagnetic.     

Solid state and solution study of some phosphoramidate derivatives containing the P(O)NHC(O) bifunctional group: Crystal structures of CCl2HC(O)NHP(O)(NCH3(CH2C6H5))2, p-ClC6H4C(O)NHP(O)(NCH3(CH2C6H5))2, CCl2HC(O)NHP(O)(N(CH2C6H5)2)2 and p-BrC6H4C(O)NHP(O)(N(CH2C6H5)2)2

Synthetic methods for several novel phosphoramidate compounds containing the P(O)NHC(O) bifunctional group were developed. These compounds with the general formula R₁C(O)NHP(O)(N(R₂)(CH₂C₆H₅))₂, where R₁ = CCl₂H, p-ClC₆H₄, p-BrC₆H₄, o-FC₆H₄ and R₂ = hydrogen, methyl, benzyl, were characterized by several spectroscopic methods and analytical techniques. The effects of phosphorus substituents on the rotation rate around the P–N_amine bond were also investigated. ¹H NMR study of the synthesized compounds demonstrated that the presence of bulky groups attached to the phosphorus center and electron withdrawing groups in the amide moiety lead to large chemical-shift non-equivalence (Δδ_H) of diastereotopic methylene protons. The crystal structures of CCl₂HC(O)NHP(O)(NCH₃(CH₂C₆H₅))₂, p-ClC₆H₄C(O)NHP(O)(NCH₃(CH₂C₆H₅))₂, CCl₂HC(O)NHP(O)(N(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₂ and p-BrC₆H₄C(O)NHP(O)(N(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₂ were determined by X-ray crystallography using single crystals. The coordination around the phosphorus center in these compounds is best described as distorted tetrahedral and the P(O) and C(O) groups are anti with respect to each other. In the compound Br-C₆H₄C(O)NHP(O)(N(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₂ (with two independent molecules in the unit cell), two conformers are connected to each other via two different N–H?O hydrogen bonds forming a non-centrosymmetric dimer. In the crystalline lattice of other compounds, the molecules form centrosymmetric dimers via pairs of same N–H?O hydrogen bonds. The structure of CCl₂HC(O)NHP(O)(N(CH₂C₆H₅)₂)₂ reveals an unusual intramolecular interaction between the oxygen of CO group and amine nitrogen.     

Dihydrogen activation with (t)Bu3P/B(C6F5)3: a chemically competent indirect mechanism via in situ-generated p-(t)Bu2P-C6F4-B(C6F5)2

A chemically competent indirect pathway for the activation of dihydrogen by the nonmetal Lewis acid/Lewis base pair (t)Bu(3)P/B(C(6)F(5))(3) is described. The reaction between (t)Bu(3)P and B(C(6)F(5))(3) produces [(t)Bu(3)PH](+)[FB(C(6)F(5))(3)](-) and the known phosphinoborane p-(t)Bu(2)P-C(6)F(4)-B(C(6)F(5))(2) (1-(t)Bu) with elimination of isobutylene. At 1:1 stoichiometry, 1-(t)Bu is produced rapidly in detectable quantities and can act as a catalyst for the formation of [(t)Bu(3)PH](+)[HB(C(6)F(5))(3)](-) from (t)Bu(3)P and B(C(6)F(5))(3) in the presence of H(2). The extent to which this indirect path competes with the direct path is explored.     

Zn7{(2-C5H4N)CH(OH)PO3}6 (H2O)6]SO4 x 4H2O: a zinc phosphonate cluster with a drum-like cage structure

Direct reaction of hydroxy(2-pyridyl)methylphosphonic acid with zinc sulfate under hydrothermal conditions results in the formation of the novel heptanuclear cluster compound [Zn7{(2-C5H4N)CH(OH)PO3}6 (H2O)6]SO4 x 4H2O (1). The inorganic core of the cluster can be described as a cylindrical drum made up of six Zn atoms bridged by six {CPO3} units that is centered by a seventh Zn atom. Crystal data: monoclinic, C2/c, a = 22.690(2) A, b = 16.675(2) A, c = 18.151(2) A, beta = 93.390(2) degrees.
