ortho-Metallated complexes of platinum(II) and diplatinum(I) containing the carbanions (2-diphenylphosphino)phenyl and (2-diphenylphosphino)-n-tolyl (n = 5, 6)

When the ortho-metallated complexes cis-[Pt(kappa(2)-C6H3-5-R-2-PPh2)2] (R = H 1, Me 2) are either heated in toluene or treated with CO at room temperature, one of the four-membered chelate rings is opened irreversibly to give dinuclear isomers [Pt2(kappa(2)-C6H3-5-R-2-PPh2)2(mu-C6H3-5-R-2-PPh2)2] (R = H 10, Me 11). A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study shows the Pt...Pt separation in 10 to be 3.3875(4) A. By-products of the reactions of 1 and 2 with CO are polymeric isomers (R = H 13, Me 14) in which one of the P-C ligands is believed to bridge adjacent platinum atoms intermolecularly. In contrast to the behaviour of 1 and 2, when cis-[Pt(kappa(2)-C6H3-6-Me-2-PPh2)2] (cis-3) is heated in toluene, the main product is trans-3, and reaction of cis-3 with CO gives a carbonyl complex [Pt(CO)(kappa(1)-C-C6H3-6-Me-2-PPh2)(2-C6H3-6-Me-2-PPh2)] 15, in which one of the carbanions is coordinated only through the carbon. Formation of a dimer analogous to 10 or 11 is sterically hindered by the 6-methyl substituent. Comproportionation of 1 or 2 with [Pt(PPh3)2L] (L = PPh3, C2H4) gives diplatinum(I) complexes [Pt2(mu-C6H3-5-R-2-PPh2)2(PPh3)2] (R = H 16, Me 17). An X-ray diffraction study shows that 17 contains a pair of planar-coordinated metal atoms separated by 2.61762(16) A. There is no evidence for the formation of an analogue containing mu-C6H3-6-Me-2-PPh2. The axial PPh3 ligands of 16 are readily replaced by ButNC giving [Pt2(mu-2-C6H4PPh2)2(CNBut)2] 18, which is protonated by HBF4 to form a mu-hydridodiplatinum(II) salt [Pt2(mu-H)(mu-2-C6H4PPh2)2(CNBut)2]BF4 [21]BF4. The J(PtPt) values in [21]BF4 and 18, 2700 Hz and 4421 Hz, respectively, reflect the weakening of the Pt-Pt interaction caused by protonation. Similarly, 16 and 17 react with the electrophiles iodine and strong acids to give salts of general formula [Pt2(mu-Z)(mu-C6H3-5-R-2-PPh2)2(PPh3)2]Y (Y = Z = I, R = H 19+, Me 20+; Z = H, Y = BF4, PF6, OTf, R = H 22+; Z = H, Y = PF6, R = Me 23+). A single-crystal X-ray diffraction study of [23]PF6 shows that the cation has an approximately A-frame geometry, with a Pt-Pt separation of 2.7888(3) A and a Pt-H bond length of 1.62(1) A, and that the 5-methyl substituents have undergone partial exchange with the 4-hydrogen atoms of the PPh2 groups of the bridging carbanion. The latter observation indicates that the added proton of [23]+ undergoes a reversible reductive elimination-oxidative addition sequence with the Pt-C(aryl) bonds.     

Interpolymetallic assembly of d8-d10 sulfide aggregates from [Pt2(PPh3)4(mu-S)2] and group 12 metals

A series of heterometallic Pt-M (M=Zn and Cd) sulfide aggregates with growing nuclearities (Pt2M), (Pt4M), and (Pt4M2), viz., [ZnPt2Cl2(PPh3)4(mu3-S)2] (2), [CdPt2Cl2(PPh3)4(mu3-S)2] (3), [Pt2(PPh3)4(mu3-S)2]2[ZnSO4]2 (4), [Pt2(PPh3)4(mu3-S)2]2[CdSO4]2.H2O (5), [CdPt4(PPh3)8(mu3-S)4][ClO4]2 (7), and [ZnPt4(PPh3)8(mu3-S)4][ClO4]2 (8), have been prepared from Pt2(PPh3)4(mu-S)2 (1) with appropriate zinc and cadmium substrates. The structures have been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The supporting anions play an active role in the structural assembly process. An unexpected disintegration complex [Pt2(S2CH2)Cl(PPh3)4][PF6] (6) has also been isolated and characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The mechanism of the formation of 6 is proposed.     

Host-guest complexes [(H4L)(SiF6)2-4H2O] and [(H4L)(GeF6)2 4H2O] (L =meso-5,7,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane)

Synthesis and X-ray structure analysis of host-guest complexes [(H₄L)(SiF₆)₂-4H₂O] (I) and [(H₄L)(GeF₆)₂-4H₂O] (II) are reported (L = meso-5,7,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-l,4,8,11-tetraazacyclo-tetradecane). The crystals of both compounds are triclinic with close unit cell parameters. I: a = 9.576(3), b= 9.217(3), c= 8.334(2) å, α= 105.66(2), Ω= 83.68(2), α = 105.38(2)? II: a= 9.627(3), b = 9.358(3), c.= 8.497(4) A, a= 106.02(2), Ω = 83.74(2), α= 106.06(2)?. The structural units of the crystals are the (H₄L)⁴⁺ cations, the hexafluorosilicate (or hexafluowgemanate) anions, and the water molecules linked by a system of H bonds. The macrocycle in the complexes has C₁ symmetry. In the inorganic anions, the silicon as well as germanium atom is surrounded by an octahedron of six fluorine atoms.

Synthesis, characterization and photophysical properties of PPh2-C2-(C6H4)n-C2-PPh2 based bimetallic Au(I) complexes

A family of the diphosphines PPh(2)C(2)(C(6)H(4))(n)C(2)PPh(2) (n = 0-3), which possess a dialkynyl-arene spacer between the phosphorus atoms, was used for the synthesis of a series of bimetallic gold(I) complexes 1-7. Unlike the corresponding polynuclear Au(i) clusters, which show unique phosphorescence, 1-7 reveal dual emissions consisting of fluorescence and phosphorescence. The results are rationalized, in a semi-quantitative manner, by the trace (1-3) to zero (4-7) contribution of MLCT varying with the number of conjugated phenylene rings. As a result, unlike typical polynuclear Au(I) clusters with 100% triplet state population, the rate constant of the S(1)→T(1) intersystem crossing is drastically reduced to 10(9) s(-1) (4-7)-10(10) s(-1) (1-3), so that the fluorescence radiative decay rate can compete or even dominates. The drastic O(2) quenching of phosphorescence demonstrates the unprotected nature of the emission chromophores in 1-7, as opposed to the well protected, O(2) independent phosphorescence in most multimetallic Au(I) clusters.

Charge density studies on [(NO)Fe(S2C6H4)2][PPN] and [(NO)3Fe(S2C6H4)3] complexes

Charge density studies of chemical bonds for two iron complexes, [(NO)Fe(S,S-C₆H₄)₂] [PPN] (1), where PPN = N(Pph₃)₂ and Fe₃(NO)₃(S,S-C₆H₄)₃ (2) are investigated in terms of the topological properties at bond critical points based on the ‘atoms in molecule’ theory. The one electron reduction form (1R) of complex 1 and the one electron oxidation form (2O) of complex 2 are also included for comparison. The X-ray absorption spectroscopy of Fe K- and L_III,II-edges, as well as the N/S K-edge are applied to verify the illustration in the variation of the electronic structures. Based on the ρ_c, ?²ρ_c, and H_b values among the compound studied, Fe-S/N can be regarded as polarized covalent bond, and Fe-N bonds show stronger covalent character than that of the Fe–S bond, which is believed to be a highly polarized covalent bond.

Three monoalkoxy‐substituted nido‐platinaboranes: [(PPh3)2PtB10H11‐8‐(OCH3)], [(PPh3)2PtB10H11‐8‐{OCH(CH3)2}] and [(PPh3)2PtB10H10‐9‐{OCH(CH3)2}]

Each of the title compounds, 8‐methoxy‐7,7‐bis­(tri­phenyl­phosphine‐P)‐8,9:10,11‐di‐μH‐7‐platina‐nido‐undecaborane di­chloro­methane hemisolvate, [Pt(CH₁₄B₁₀O)(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂]·0.5CH₂Cl₂, (I), 8‐isopropoxy‐7,7‐bis­(tri­phenyl­phosphine‐P)‐8,9:10,11‐di‐μH‐7‐platina‐nido‐undecaborane di­chloro­methane solvate, [Pt(C₃H₁₈B₁₀O)(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂]·CH₂Cl₂, (II), and 9‐isopropoxy‐7,7‐bis­(tri­phenyl­phosphine‐P)‐8,9:10,11‐di‐μH‐7‐platina‐nido‐undecaborane di­chloro­methane solvate, [Pt(C₃H₁₈B₁₀O)(C₁₈H₁₅P)₂]·CH₂Cl₂, (III), has an 11‐vertex nido polyhedral skeleton, with the 7‐platinum centre ligating to two exo‐polyhedral PPh₃ groups and an alkoxy‐substituted polyhedral borane ligand. Compounds (II) and (III) are isomers. The Pt—B distances are in the range 2.214 (7)–2.303 (7) Å for (I), 2.178 (16)–2.326 (16) Å for (II) and 2.205 (6)–2.327 (6) Å for (III).     

Formation of two isomeric closo-[(eta5-C5H5)FePC2B8H10] phosphadicarbaborane analogues of ferrocene via isolable eta1-bonded complexes of the [7-[(eta5-C5H5)Fe(CO)2]-(eta1-nido-PC2B8H10)] type

The reaction of nido-[7,8,9-PC(2)B(8)H(11)] (1) with [[CpFe(CO)(2)](2)] (Cp=eta(5)-C(5)H(5) (-)) in benzene (reflux, 3 days) gave an eta(1)-bonded complex [7-Fp-(eta(1)-nido-7,8,9,-PC(2)B(8)H(10))] (2; Fp=CpFe(CO)(2); yield 38 %). A similar reaction at elevated temperatures (xylene, reflux 24 h) gave the isomeric complex [7-Fp-(eta(1)-nido-7,9,10-PC(2)B(8)H(10))] (3; yield 28 %) together with the fully sandwiched complexes [1-Cp-closo-1,2,4,5-FePC(2)B(8)H(10)] 4 a (yield 30%) and [1-Cp-closo-1,2,4,8-FePC(2)B(8)H(10)] 4 b (yield 5%). Compounds 2 and 3 are isolable intermediates along the full eta(5)-complexation pathway of the phosphadicarbaborane cage; their heating (xylene, reflux, 24 h) leads finally to the isolation of compounds 4 a (yields 46 and 52%, respectively) and 4 b (yields 4 and 5%, respectively). Moreover, compound 3 is isolated as a side product from the heating of 2 (yield 10%). The structure of compound 4 a was determined by an X-ray structural analysis and the constitution of all compounds is consistent with the results of mass spectrometry and IR spectroscopy. Multinuclear ((1)H, (11)B, (31)P, and (13)C), two-dimensional [(11)B-(11)B]-COSY, and (1)H[(11)B(selective)] magnetic resonance measurements led to complete assignments of all resonances and are in excellent agreement with the structures proposed.     

Synthetic and Structural Studies on the Cyclic Bis(amino)stannylenes Sn[(NR)2C10H6‐1, 8] and their Reactions with SnCl2 or Si[(NCH2But)2C6H4‐1, 2] (R = SiMe3 or CH2But)

Treatment of {HNR}₂C₁₀H₆‐1, 8 [R = SiMe₃ ( 1 ), CH₂Bu^t ( 2 )] with Sn[N(SiMe₃)₂]₂ afforded the cyclic stannylene Sn[{NR}₂C₁₀H₆‐1, 8] [R = SiMe₃ ( 3 ), CH₂Bu^t ( 4 )]. From 3 and SnCl₂ in THF and crystallisation from toluene, the product was the crystalline tetracyclic compound ( 5 ) as the (toluene)_0.5‐solvate. Reaction of 4 with the silylene Si[(NCH₂Bu^t)₂C₆H₄‐1, 2] ( 6 ) [abbreviated as Si(NN)] in benzene and crystallisation in presence of Et₂O furnished the crystalline tricyclic complex Sn[{Si(NCH₂Bu^t)₂C₆H₄‐1′, 2′}₂‐{(NCH₂Bu^t)₂C₁₀H₆‐1, 8}] ( 7 ) as the Et₂O‐solvate. Complex 5 slowly dissociated into its factors 3 and SnCl₂ in toluene, but rapidly in THF. Solutions of 7 in C₆D₆, C₇D₈ or THF‐d₈, studied by multinuclear, variable temperature NMR spectroscopy, revealed the presence of an equilibrium between 8 (an isomer of 7 , in which the skeletal atoms of the eight‐membered ring were , rather than the of 7 ) and 4 + 2 Si(NN), with 8 dominant in PhMe but not in THF; additionally 8 was shown to be fluxional and solutions of 8 in C₆D₆ or C₇D₈ decomposed to give the silane Si(NN)[(NCH₂Bu^t)₂C₁₀H₆‐1, 8], 6 and Sn metal. The X‐ray structures of 3 , 5 and 7 are presented.     

Balancing framework densification with charged, halogen-bonded-pi-conjugated linkages: [PPh4]2{[E-TTF-I2][Re6Se8(CN)6]} versus [PPh4]2[EDT-TTF-I]2{[EDT-TTF-I][Re6Se8(CN)6]}

The ionic character of a set of two redox linkages and strong, directional halogen bonding at the organic-inorganic interface compromise to produce two materials sharing a common two-dimensional net, eventually extended in a third dimension, although two of the six symmetrical halogen bond acceptors ultimately remain uninvolved as a result of charge densification.
