Platinum(II) and Palladium(II) Bis(chelate) Complexes Containing both Tri(1‐cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl)phosphane,P(C7H7)3, and Dichalcogenolato Ligands

Tri(1‐cyclohepta‐2, 4, 6‐trienyl)phosphane, P(C₇H₇)₃ ([P] when coordinated to a metal atom), was used to stabilize complexes of platinum(II) and palladium(II) with chelating dichalcogenolato ligands as [P]M(E∩E) [E = S, ∩ = CH₂CH₂, M = Pt ( 3a ); E = S, ∩ = 1, 2‐C₆H₄, M = Pt ( 5a ), Pd ( 6a ); E = S, ∩ = C(O)C(O), M = Pt ( 7a ), Pd ( 8a ); E = S, Se, ∩ = 1, 2‐C₂(B₁₀H₁₀), M = Pt ( 9a, 9b ), Pd ( 10a, 10b ); E = S, ∩ = Fe₂(CO)₆, M = Pt ( 11a ), Pd ( 12a )]. Starting materials in all reactions were [P]MCl₂ with M = Pt ( 1 ) and Pd ( 2 ). Attempts at the synthesis of [P]M(ER)₂ with non‐chelating chalcogenolato ligands were not successful. All new complexes were characterized by multinuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in solution (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P, ⁷⁷Se and ¹⁹⁵Pt NMR), and the molecular structures of 5a and 12a were determined by X‐ray analysis. Both in the solid state and in solution the ligand [P] is linked to the metal atom by the P‐M bond and by η²‐C=C coordination of the central C=C bond of one of the C₇H₇ rings. In solution, intramolecular exchange between coordinated and non‐coordinated C₇H₇ rings is observed, the exchange process being markedly faster in the case of M = Pd than for M = Pt.

Similarly, [η²-{P–P^tBu₂}Pt(dppe)] 5 yields [η²-{(CO)₅Cr · PP^tBu₂}Pt(dppe)] 3 . Compounds 1 , 2 and 3 are characterized by their ¹H- and ³¹P-NMR spectra, for 2 and 3 also crystal structure determinations were performed. 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2₁/n (no. 14) with a = 1422.7(1) pm, b = 1509.3(1) pm, c = 2262.4(2) pm, β = 103.669(9)°. 3 crystallizes in the triclinic space group P1 (no. 2) with a = 1064.55(9) pm, b = 1149.9(1) pm, c = 1693.2(1) pm, α = 88.020(8)°, β = 72.524(7)°, γ = 85.850(8)°.     

Synthesis and Characterization of the First Doubly‐bridged N,N‐dimethylthiocarbamoyl Metal Complex: Crystal Structure of [Mo(Cl)(CO)2(PPh3)]2(η1:η2:μ‐SCNMe2)2

The first doubly‐bridged thiocarbamoyl metal complex [Mo(Cl)(CO)₂(PPh₃)]₂(η¹:η²:μ‐SCNMe₂)₂ ( 2 ) was formed from stirring [Mo(CO)₂(η²‐SCNMe₂)(PPh₃)₂Cl] ( 1 ) in dichloromethane at room temperature. Complex 2 is a dimer with each thiocarbamoyl unit coordinating through sulfur and carbon to one metal center and bridging both metals through sulfur. Complex 2 is characterized by X‐ray diffraction analysis.
