Studies pertaining to the mechanism of “Pt(PCy3)“ addition. The reaction of MPt(μ-H)(μ-PnPr2)Pt(CO)(PCy3) with Pt(C2H4)2(PCy3)

The reaction of Pt(C₂H₄)₂(PCy₃) with (OC)₄M(μ-H)(μ-PⁿPr₂)Pt(CO)(PCy₃, (1: M  Cr, Mo, W) occurs in a highly specific, kinetically controlled manner to give MPt₂(μ²_MPt-CO)(η²_PtPt-H)(μ²_MPt-PⁿPr₂)(CO)₄ (PCy₃)₂ (5), as the first formed trimer. The trimer 5 (M  Mo, W) isomerizes to give MPt₂(μ²_PtPt-CO) ((μ²_MPtH)(μ²_MPt-PⁿPr₂)(CO)₄)PCy₃)₂ (6) which in turn isomerizes to MPt₂μ²_MPtCO)(μ²_MPt (μ²_PtPt-PⁿPr₂)(CO)₄(PCy₃)₂ (7, as the final isolable product. These results provide a detailed insight into the mechanism of “Pt(PCy₃) addition”, a cluster assembly process.

Complexes2a and2b result from a [2 + 2] cycloaddition between one of the CC triple bonds of the diyne ligand and the FeC carbene bond, whereas2c results from insertion of one of the CC group into the bridging carbene. Addition of [Fe₂(CO)₉] on2a gave two major products, the tripledecker [Fe₃(CO)₈{C(Ph)C(NEt₂)C(C₂Ph)}], (3 and a tetrairon cluster [Fe₄(CO)₁₁{C(Ph)C(NEt₂)C(Ph)C(C₂Ph)}] (4).

The reaction of PtRu₅(CO)₁₆(μ₆-C),1 with 3-hexyne in the presence of UV irradiation produced two new electron-rich platinum-ruthenium cluster complexes PtRu₅(CO)₁₃(μ-EtC₂Et)(μ₃-EtC₂Et)(μ₅-C),2 (20% yield) and Pt₂Ru₆(CO)₁₇(μ-η⁵-Et₄C₅)(μ₃-EtC₂Et) (μ₆-C),3 (7% yield). Both compounds were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Compound2 contains of a platinum capped square pyramidal cluster of five ruthenium atoms with the carbido ligand located in the center of the square pyramid. A EtC₂Et ligand bridges one of the PtRu₂ triangles and the Ru-Pt bond between the apical ruthenium atom and the platinum cap. The structure of compound3 consists of an octahedral PtRu₅ cluster with an interstitial carbido ligand and a platinum atom capping one of the PtRu₂ triangles. There is an additional Ru(CO)₂ group extending from the platinum atom in the PtRu₅ cluster that contains a metallated tetraethylcyclopentadienyl ligand that bridges to the platinum capping group. There is also a EtC₂Et ligand bridging one of the PtRu₂ triangular faces to the capping platinum atom. Compounds2 and3 both contain two valence electrons more than the number predicted by conventional electron counting theories, and both also possess unusually long metal-metal bonds that may be related to these anomalous electron configurations.

Synthesis and structure of Os3(μ-H)3(CO)9(μ3-Sn)Os3(μ-H)(CO)10(PEt2Ph): The first osmium cluster containing a face-capping tin atom

Pyrolysis a the cluster Os₃(µ-H h (CO)₁₀ (SnMe2 H) produced an as yet unidentified purple duster, which upon reaction with PEt₂Ph at room temperature, gave essentially a quantitative yield of the cluster Os₃(µ-H)₃(CO)₉(µ₃-Sn) Os₃(µ-H)(CO)₁₀(PEt₂Ph), 4. The X-ray structure of 4 (as the toluene solvate) shows that it consists Or two Os, triangles linked through a µ₄-Sn unit, such that one of the Os₃ triangle is µ₃-bonded to the Sn atom (Os-Sn range 2.689(2)–2.707(2) Å) and the other is bonded via a single covalent bond (Os-Sn = 2.643(2) Å). The phosphine ligand occupies the equatorial site on a second osmium atom a be latter Os₃ moiety that is syn to the Sn atom; the unique bridging hydride ligarid is believed to occupy a site that Acis to both the P and Sn atoms. Crystallographic data for compound4. 0.5C₇H₈: space group,P ; ca= 11862(4) Å,b = 12.940(4) Å,c = 16.513(5) Å, =68.96(3),=80.60(3)°,=62.49(2).R=0.029, 4118 observed reflections.     

Synthesis and X-ray crystal structure of the electron-deficient metal carbonyl cluster [Os3(CO)5(μ3-H)(μ-H)(μ-PtBu2)2(μ-Ph2PCH2PPh2)]

The reaction of [Os₃(CO)₁₀(μ-dppm)] (1) with ^tBu₂PH in refluxing diglyme results in the electron-deficient metal cluster complex [Os₃(CO)₅(μ₃-H)(μ-P^tBu₂)₂(μ-dppm)] (2) (dppm = Ph₂PCH₂PPh₂) in good yields. The molecular structure of 2 has been established by a single crystal X-ray structure analysis. In contrast to the known homologue [Ru₃(μ-CO)(CO)₄(μ₃-H)(μ-H)(μ-P^tBu₂)₂(μ-dppm)] (3), no bridging carbonyl ligand was found in 2. The electronically unsaturated cluster 2 does not react with carbon monoxide under elevated pressure, therefore 2 seems to be coordinatively saturated by reason of the high steric demands of the phosphido ligands.     

Synthesis and structures of complexes Os3(μ-H)2(CO)7(μ-RC5H3N){μ3-Ph2PCH2P(C6H4)Ph} (R = H, Me) with ortho-metalated pyridine ligands. The revised structure of the triosmium cluster ”Os3(μ-H)2(CO)7(μ-C6H4){μ3-Ph2PCH2P(C6H4)Ph}”

The structure of the previously synthesized triosmium cluster was revised. The structure Os₃(μ-H)₂(CO)₇(μ-C₆H₄){μ₃-Ph₂PCH₂P(C₆H₄)Ph} suggested earlier was not confirmed. The cluster has the composition Os₃(μ-H)₂(CO)₇(μ-C₅H₄N){μ₃-Ph₂PCH₂P(C₆H₄)Ph} and contains the ortho-metalated pyridine ligand. The X-ray diffraction study of the complex Os₃(μ-H)₂(CO)₇(μ-MeC₅H₃N){μ₃-Ph₂PCH₂P(C₆H₄)Ph} containing the ortho-metalated 4-methylpyridine ligand made it possible to distinguish between the C and N atoms of the pyridine ligands in the resulting triosmium clusters.

Electrochemical and Theoretical Investigations of the Role of the Appended Base on the Reduction of Protons by [Fe(2) (CO)(4) (κ(2) -PNP(R) )(μ-S(CH(2) )(3) S] (PNP(R) ={Ph(2) PCH(2) }(2) NR, R=Me, Ph)

The behavior of [Fe(2) (CO)(4) (κ(2) -PNP(R) )(μ-pdt)] (PNP(R) =(Ph(2) PCH(2) )(2) NR, R=Me (1), Ph (2); pdt=S(CH(2) )(3) S) in the presence of acids is investigated experimentally and theoretically (using density functional theory) in order to determine the mechanisms of the proton reduction steps supported by these complexes, and to assess the role of the PNP(R) appended base in these processes for different redox states of the metal centers. The nature of the R substituent of the nitrogen base does not substantially affect the course of the protonation of the neutral complex by CF(3) SO(3) H or CH(3) SO(3) H; the cation with a bridging hydride ligand, 1?μH(+) (R=Me) or 2?μH(+) (R=Ph) is obtained rapidly. Only 1?μH(+) can be protonated at the nitrogen atom of the PNP chelate by HBF(4) ?Et(2) O or CF(3) SO(3) H, which results in a positive shift of the proton reduction by approximately 0.15?V. The theoretical study demonstrates that in this process, dihydrogen can be released from a η(2) -H(2) species in the Fe(I) Fe(II) state. When R=Ph, the bridging hydride cation 2?μH(+) cannot be protonated at the amine function by HBF(4) ?Et(2) O or CF(3) SO(3) H, and protonation at the N atom of the one-electron reduced analogue is also less favored than that of a S atom of the partially de-coordinated dithiolate bridge. In this situation, proton reduction occurs at the potential of the bridging hydride cation, 2?μH(+) . The rate constants of the overall proton reduction processes are small for both complexes 1 and 2 (k(obs) ≈4-7?s(-1) ) because of the slow intramolecular proton migration and H(2) release steps identified by the theoretical study.     

The synthesis of platinum and palladium cluster compounds with isocyanide or functionalised phosphine ligands. Crystal structures of [Pt5(CO)(μ-CO)5{Ph2PCH2C(O) Ph}4 and [Pt5(μ-CNC6H3Me2-2, 6)3(CNC6H3Me2-2, 6)5 {Ph2PCH2C(O) Ph}2]

The reaction of the ketophosphine ligand Ph₂PCH₂C(O)Ph (P～O) with [PtCl₂(NCMe)₂] and carbon monoxide in THF in the presence of an excess of zinc afforded the 70 electron pentanuclear cluster [Pt₅(CO)(μ-CO)₅(P～O)₄] (1). Reaction of the palladium(0) complex [Pd₂(dba)₃] CHCl₃ (dba = dibenzylideneacetone) with Ph₂PCH₂C(O)R [R = Ph or C₅H₄Fe(C₅H₅)] under SO₂ led to the pentapalladium cluster compounds [Pd₅(μ₃-SO₂)₂ (μ-SO₂)₂ {Ph₂PCH₂C(O)R}₅] (2a,R = Ph;2b,R = C₅H₄Fe(C₅H₅)), Cluster (1) reacts with 2,6-xylyl isocyanide, CNC₆H₃Me₂-2,6 to give a red cluster of formula [Pt₅(μ-CNC₆H₃Me₂-2, 6)₃ (CNC₆H₃Me₂-2, 6)₅ (P～O)₂] (3) and a green complex (4). The corresponding complexes (6) and (7) were also obtained by using PPh₃ instead of P～O. Clusters (2a) and (2b) react with [NEt₃Bz] Cl to give[NEt₃Bz][Pd₃(μ-SO₂)₂ (μ-Cl){Ph₂PCH₂C(O)R}₃](8a,R = Ph;8b,R = C₅H₄Fe(C₅H₅)). The molecular structures of (1) and (3) were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses.
