On the Reactivity of Platina‐β‐diketones – Synthesis and Characterization of Acylplatinum(II) Complexes

The platina‐β‐diketones [Pt₂{(COR)₂H}₂(μ‐Cl)₂] ( 1 , R = Me a , Et b ) react with phosphines L in a molar ratio of 1 : 4 through cleavage of acetaldehyde to give acylplatinum(II) complexes trans‐[Pt(COR)Cl(L)₂] ( 2 ) (R/L = Me/P(p‐FC₆H₄)₃ a , Me/P(p‐CH₂=CHC₆H₄)Ph₂ b , Me/P(n‐Bu)₃ c , Et/P(p‐MeOC₆H₄)₃ d ). 1 a reacts with Ph₂As(CH₂)₂PPh₂ (dadpe) in a molar ratio of 1 : 2 through cleavage of acetaldehyde yielding [Pt(COMe)Cl(dadpe)] ( 3 a ) (configuration index: SP‐4‐4) and [Pt(COMe)Cl(dadpe)] (configuration index: SP‐4‐2) ( 3 b ) in a ratio of about 9 : 1. All acyl complexes were characterized by ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy. The molecular structures of 2 a and 3 a were determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. The geometries at the platinum centers are close to square planar. In both complexes the plane of the acyl ligand is nearly perpendicular to the plane of the complex (88(2)° 2 a , 81.2(5)° 3 a ).     

On the reactivity of platina‐β‐diketones: a straightforward synthesis of trans‐acetylchlorobis(phosphine)platinum(II) complexes and their reactivity

The platina‐β‐diketone [Pt₂{(COMe)₂H}₂(µ‐Cl)₂] ( 1 ) was found to react with monodentate phosphines to yield acetyl(chloro)platinum(II) complexes trans‐[Pt(COMe)Cl(PR₃)₂] (PR₃ = PPh₃, 2a ; P(4‐FC₆H₄)₃, 2b ; PMePh₂, 2c ; PMe₂Ph, 2d ; P(n‐Bu)₃, 2e ; P(o‐tol)₃, 2f ; P(m‐tol)₃, 2g ; P(p‐tol)₃, 2h ). In the reaction with P(o‐tol)₃ the methyl(carbonyl)platinum(II) complex [Pt(Me)Cl(CO){P(o‐tol)₃}] ( 3a ) was found to be an intermediate. On the other hand, treating 1 with P(C₆F₅)₃ led to the formation of [Pt(Me)Cl(CO){P(C₆F₅)₃}] ( 3b ), even in excess of the phosphine. Phosphine ligands with a lower donor capability in complexes 2 and the arsine ligand in trans‐[Pt(COMe)Cl(AsPh₃)₂] ( 2i ) proved to be subject to substitution by stronger donating phosphine ligands, thus forming complexes trans‐[Pt(COMe)Cl(L)L′] (L/L′ = AsPh₃/PPh₃, 4a ; PPh₃/P(n‐Bu)₃, 4b ) and cis‐[Pt(COMe)Cl(dppe)] ( 4c ). Furthermore, in boiling benzene, complexes 2a – 2c and 2i underwent decarbonylation yielding quantitatively methyl(chloro)platinum(II) complexes trans‐[Pt(Me)Cl(L)₂] (L = PPh₃, 5a ; P(4‐FC₆H₄)₃, 5b ; PMePh₂, 5c ; AsPh₃, 5d ). The identities of all complexes were confirmed by ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P NMR spectroscopy. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses of 2a ·2CHCl₃, 2f and 5b showed that the platinum atom is square‐planar coordinated by two phosphine ligands (PPh₃, 2a ; P(o‐tol)₃, 2f ; P(4F‐C₆H₄)₃, 5b ) in mutual trans position as well as by an acetyl ligand ( 2a, 2f ) and a methyl ligand ( 5b ), respectively, trans to a chloro ligand. Single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis of 3b exhibited a square‐planar platinum complex with the two π‐acceptor ligands CO and P(C₆F₅)₃ in mutual cis position (configuration index: SP‐4‐3).

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)°.     

On the Reactivity of the Platina‐β‐diketone [Pt2{(COMe)2H}2(μ‐Cl)2] Towards Ph2PCH2CH2CH2SOxPh (x = 0, 2)

The reaction of the electronically unsaturated platina‐β‐diketone [Pt₂{(COMe)₂H}₂(μ‐Cl)₂] ( 1 ) with Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SPh ( 2 ) leads selectively to the formation of the acetyl(chlorido) platinum(II) complex (SP‐4‐3)‐[Pt(COMe)Cl(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SPh‐κP,κS)] ( 4 ) having the γ‐phosphinofunctionalized propyl phenyl sulfide coordinated in a bidentate fashion (κP,κS). In boiling benzene complex 4 undergoes decarbonylation yielding the methyl(chlorido) platinum(II) complex (SP‐4‐3)‐[PtMeCl(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SPh‐κP,κS)] ( 6 ). However, the reaction of 1 with the analogous γ‐diphenylphosphinofunctionalized propyl phenyl sulfone Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph ( 3 ) affords the acetyl(chlorido) platinum(II) complex (SP‐4‐4)‐[Pt(COMe)Cl(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph‐κP)₂] ( 5 ). In boiling benzene complex 5 undergoes a CO extrusion yielding (SP‐4‐4)‐[PtMeCl(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph‐κP)₂] ( 8 ) whereas in presence of 1 the formation of the carbonyl complex (SP‐4‐3)‐[PtMeCl(CO)(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph‐κP)] ( 7 ) is observed. Addition of Ag[BF₄] to complex 5 leads to the formation of the cationic methyl(carbonyl) platinum(II) complex (SP‐4‐1)‐[PtMe(CO)(Ph₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SO₂Ph‐κP)₂][BF₄] ( 9 ). All complexes were characterized by microanalysis and NMR spectroscopy (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P) and complexes 4 and 6 additionally by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analyses.

Reactions of pyrimidine‐2‐thione (HpymS) with Pd^II/Pt^IV salts in the presence of triphenyl phosphine and bis(diphenylphosphino)alkanes, Ph₂P‐(CH₂)_m‐PPh₂ (m = 1, 2) have yielded two types of complexes, viz. a) [M(η²‐N, S‐ pymS)(η¹‐S‐ pymS)(PPh₃)] (M = Pd, 1 ; Pt, 2 ), and (b) [M(η¹‐S‐pymS)₂(L‐L)] {L‐L, M = dppm (m = 1) Pd, 3 ; Pt, 4 ; dppe (m = 2), Pd, 5 ; Pt, 6 }. Complexes have been characterized by elemental analysis (C, H, N), NMR spectroscopy (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P), and single crystal X‐ray crystallography ( 1 , 2 , 4 , and 5 ). Complexes 1 and 2 have terminal η¹‐S and chelating η²‐N, S‐modes of pymS⁻, while other Pd/Pt complexes have only terminal η¹‐S modes. The solution state ³¹P NMR spectral data reveal dynamic equilibrium for the complexes 3 , 5 and 6 , whereas the complexes 1 , 2 and 4 are static in solution state.     

Zur Reaktivität von alkylthioverbrückten 44‐CVE‐triangularen Platinclustern: Umsetzungen mit bidentaten Phosphanliganden

On the Reactivity of Alkylthio Bridged 44 CVE Triangular Platinum Clusters: Reactions with Bidentate Phosphine Ligands The 44 cve (cluster valence electrons) triangular platinum clusters [{Pt(PR₃)}₃(μ‐SMe)₃]Cl (PR₃ = PPh₃, 2a ; P(4‐FC₆H₄)₃, 2b ; P(n‐Bu)₃, 2c ) were found to react with PPh₂CH₂PPh₂ (dppm) in a degradation reaction yielding dinuclear platinum(I) complexes [{Pt(PR₃)}₂(μ‐SMe)(μ‐dppm)]Cl (PR₃ = PPh₃, 3a ; P(4‐FC₆H₄)₃, 3b ; P(n‐Bu)₃; 3e ) and the platinum(II) complex [Pt(SMe)₂(dppm)] ( 4 ), whereas the addition of PPh₂CH₂CH₂PPh₂ (dppe) to cluster 2a afforded a mixture of degradation products, among others the complexes [Pt(dppe)₂] and [Pt(dppe)₂]Cl₂. On the other hand, the treatment of cluster 2a with PPh₂CH₂CH₂CH₂PPh₂ (dppp) ended up in the formation of the cationic complex [{Pt(dppp)}₂(μ‐SMe)₂]Cl₂ ( 5 ). Furthermore, the terminal PPh₃ ligands in complex 3a proved to be subject to substitution by the stronger donating monodentate phosphine ligands PMePh₂ and PMe₂Ph yielding the analogous complexes [{Pt(PR₃)}₂(μ‐SMe)(μ‐dppm)]Cl (PR₃ = PMePh₂, 3c ; PMe₂Ph, 3d ). NMR investigations on complexes 3 showed an inverse correlation of Tolmans electronic parameter ν with the coupling constants ¹J(Pt,P) and ¹J(Pt,Pt). All compounds were fully characterized by means of NMR and IR spectroscopy. X‐ray diffraction analyses were performed for the complexes [{Pt{P(4‐FC₆H₄)₃}}₂(μ‐SMe)(μ‐dppm)]Cl ( 3b ), [Pt(SMe)₂(dppm)] ( 4 ), and [{Pt(dppp)}₂(μ‐SMe)₂]Cl₂ ( 5 ).     

Metal Derivatives of Heterocyclic‐2‐thiones: Crystal Structures of [Bis(diphenylphosphanyl)propane][bis(pyrimidine‐2‐thiolato)]ruthenium(II) and [Bis(diphenylphosphanyl)methane][bis(pyridine‐2‐thiolato)]ruthenium(II)

Ruthenium(II) Complexes containing pyrimidine‐2‐thiolate (pymS^–) and bis(diphenylphosphanyl)alkanes [Ph₂P–(CH₂)_m–PPh₂, m = 1, dppm; m = 2, dppe; m = 3, dppp; m = 4, dppb] are described. Reactions of [RuCl₂L₂] (L = dppm, dppp) and [Ru₂Cl₄L₃] (L = dppb) with pyrimidine‐2‐thione (pymSH) in 1:2 molar ratio in dry benzene in the presence of Et₃N base yielded the [Ru(pymS)₂L] complexes (pymS^– = pyrimidine‐2‐thiolate; L = dppm ( 1 ); dppp ( 3 ); dppb ( 4 )). The complex [Ru(pymS)₂(dppe)] ( 2 ) was indirectly prepared by the reaction of [Ru(pymS)₂(PPh₃)₂] with dppe. These complexes were characterized using analytical data, IR, ¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P NMR spectroscopy, and X‐ray crystallography (complex 3 ). The crystal structure of the analogous complex [Ru(pyS)₂(dppm)] ( 5 ) with the ligand pyridine‐2‐thiolate (pyS^–) was also described. X‐ray crystallographic investigation of complex 3 has shown two four‐membered chelate rings (N, S donors) and one six‐membered ring (P, P donors) around the metal atom. Compound 5 provides the first example in which Ru^II has three four‐membered chelate rings: two made up by N, S donor ligands and one made up by P, P donor ligand. The arrangement around the metal atoms in each complex is distorted octahedral with cis:cis:trans:P, P:N, N:S, S dispositions of the donor atoms. The ³¹P NMR spectroscopic data revealed that the complexes are static in solution, except 2 , which showed the presence of more than one species.

By thermolysis or photolysis, 2 c loses very easily one carbonyl ligand and yields the corresponding electronically and coordinatively unsaturated complex [Fe₂(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 3 ). 3 exhibits a Fe–Fe double bond which could be confirmed by the addition of methylene to the corresponding dimetallacyclopropane [Fe₂(CO)₄(μ‐CH₂)(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4 ). The reaction of 1 with dppe (Ph₂PC₂H₄PPh₂) affords [Fe₂(μ‐CO)(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppe)] ( 5 ). In contrast to the thermolysis of 2 c , yielding 3 , the heating of 5 in toluene leads rapidly to complete decomposition. The reaction of 1 with PPh₃ yields [Fe₂(CO)₆(H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(PPh₃)] ( 6 a ), while with ^tBu₂PH the compound [Fe₂(μ‐CO)(CO)₅(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(^tBu₂PH)] ( 6 b ) is formed. The thermolysis of 6 b affords [Fe₂(CO)₅(μ‐P^tBu₂)₂] and the degradation products [Fe(CO)₃(^tBu₂PH)₂] and [Fe(CO)₄(^tBu₂PH)]. The molecular structures of 3 , 4 and 6 b were determined by X‐ray crystal structure analyses.

Although in the solid state structure one elongated Ru–Ru bond has been found the complex 4 can be considered by means of the ³¹P‐NMR data as an electron‐rich metal cluster.     

1, 9‐Dihydro‐purine‐6‐thione Derivatives of the d8–d10 Metal Ions (PdII,PtII, and CuI): Synthesis,Spectroscopy, and Structures

Reaction of 1, 9‐dihydro‐purine‐6‐thione (puSH₂) in presence of aqueous sodium hydroxide with PdCl₂(PPh₃)₂ suspended in ethanol formed [Pd(κ²‐N⁷,S‐puS)(PPh₃)₂] ( 1 ). Similarly, complexes [Pd(κ²‐N⁷,S‐puS)(κ²‐P, P‐L‐L)] ( 2 – 4 ) {L‐L = dppm (m = 1) ( 2 ), dppp (m = 3) ( 3 ), dppb (m = 4) ( 4 )} were prepared using precursors the [PdCl₂(L‐L)] {L‐L = Ph₂P–(CH₂)_m–PPh₂}. Reaction of puSH₂ suspended in benzene with platinic acid, H₂PtCl₆, in ethanol in the presence of triethylamine followed by the addition of PPh₃ yielded the complex [Pt(κ²‐N⁷,S‐puS)(PPh₃)₂] ( 5 ). Complexes [Pt(κ²‐N⁷,S‐puS)(κ²‐P, P‐L‐L)] ( 6 – 8 ) {L‐L = dppm ( 6 ), dppp ( 7 ), dppb ( 8 )} were prepared similarly. The 1, 9‐dihydro‐purine‐6‐thione acts as N⁷,S‐chelating dianion in compounds 1 – 8 . The reaction of copper(I) chloride [or copper(I) bromide] in acetonitrile with puSH₂ and the addition of PPh₃ in methanol yielded the same product, [Cu(κ²‐N⁷,S‐puSH)(PPh₃)₂] ( 9 ), in which the halogen atoms are removed by uninegative N, S‐chelating puSH^– anion. However, copper(I) iodide did not lose iodide and formed the tetrahedral complex, [CuI(κ¹‐S‐puSH₂)(PPh₃)₂] ( 10 ), in which the thio ligand is neutral. These complexes were characterized with the help of elemental analysis, NMR spectroscopy (¹H, ³¹P), and single‐crystal X‐ray crystallography ( 3 , 7 , 8 , 9 , and 10 ).

In this case the phosphane substitutes one carbonyl ligand at the iron tetracarbonyl fragment in 2 , which was confirmed by the X‐ray crystal structure analysis of 3a . In solution 3b loses one CO ligand very easily to give dppm as bridging ligand on the Fe‐Fe bond. The thus formed compound [Fe₂(CO)₄(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4 ) occurs in solution in different solvents and over a wide temperature range as a mixture of the two isomers [Fe₂(μ_sb‐CO)(CO)₃(NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4a ) and [Fe₂(CO)₄(μ‐NO)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 4b ). 4a was unambiguously characterized by single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis while 4b was confirmed both by NMR investigations in solution as well as by means of DFT calculations. Furthermore, the spontaneous reaction of [Fe₂(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 5 ) with NO at —60 °C in toluene yields a complicated mixture of products containing [Fe₂(μ‐CO)(CO)₄(μ‐H)(μ‐P^tBu₂)(μ‐dppm)] ( 6 ) as main product beside the isomers 4a and 4b occuring in very low yields.     

Stereoselectivity in Diphos Addition to Molybdenum Complex with Pyridine‐2‐thionate (pyS) and η3‐Methallyl Coordinated Ligands

The conformational isomers endo‐ and exo‐[Mo{η³‐C₃H₄(CH₃)}(η²‐pyS)(CO)(η²‐diphos)] (diphos: dppm = {bis(diphenylphosphino)methane}, 2 ; dppe = {1,2‐bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane}, 3 ) are prepared by reacting the double‐bridged pyridine‐2‐thionate (pyS) complex [Mo{η³‐C₃H₄(CH₃)}(CO)₂]₂(η¹:η²:μ‐pyS)₂, 1 with diphos in refluxing acetonitrile. Stereoselectivity of the methallyl, C₃H₄(CH₃), ligand improves the formation of the exo‐conformation of 2 and 3 . Orientations and spectroscopy of these complexes are discussed.     

Synthesis,Spectroscopy, and Structures of Mono‐ and Dinuclear Copper(I) Halide Complexes with 1,3‐Imidazolidine‐2‐thiones

Copper(I) halides with triphenyl phosphine and imidaozlidine‐2‐thiones (L ‐NMe, L ‐NEt, and L ‐NPh) in acetonitrile/methanol (or dichloromethane) yielded copper(I) mixed‐ligand complexes: mononuclear, namely, [CuCl(κ¹‐S‐L ‐NMe)(PPh₃)₂] ( 1 ), [CuBr(κ¹‐S‐L ‐NMe)(PPh₃)₂] ( 2 ), [CuBr(κ¹‐S‐L ‐NEt)(PPh₃)₂] ( 5 ), [CuI(κ¹‐S‐L ‐NEt)(PPh₃)₂] ( 6 ), [CuCl(κ¹‐S‐L ‐NPh)(PPh₃)₂] ( 7 ), and [CuBr(κ¹‐S‐L ‐NPh)(PPh₃)₂] ( 8 ), and dinuclear, [Cu₂(κ¹‐I)₂(μ‐S‐L ‐NMe)₂(PPh₃)₂] ( 3 ) and [Cu₂(μ‐Cl)₂(κ¹‐S‐L ‐NEt)₂(PPh₃)₂] ( 4 ). All complexes were characterized with analytical data, IR and NMR spectroscopy, and X‐ray crystallography. Complexes 2 – 4 , 7 , and 8 each formed crystals in the triclinic system with P$\bar{1}$ space group, whereas complexes 1 , 5 , and 6 crystallized in the monoclinic crystal system with space groups P2₁/c, C2/c, and P2₁/n, respectively. Complex 2 has shown two independent molecules, [(CuBr(κ¹‐S‐L ‐NMe)(PPh₃)₂] and [CuBr(PPh₃)₂] in the unit cell. For X = Cl, the thio‐ligand bonded to metal as terminal in complex 4 , whereas for X = I it is sulfur‐bridged in complex 3 .     

2‐Amino‐5‐(2‐pyridyl)‐thiadiazole as Bidentate Ligand

The amino substituted bidentate chelating ligand 2‐amino‐5‐(2‐pyridyl)‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole (H₂ L ) was used to prepare 3:1‐type coordination compounds of iron(II), cobalt(II) and nickel(II). In the iron(II) perchlorate complex [Fe^II(H₂ L )₃](ClO₄)₂·0.6MeOH·0.9H₂O a 1:1 mixture of mer and fac isomers is present whereas [Fe^II(H₂ L )₃](BF₄)₂·MeOH·H₂O, [Co^II(H₂ L )₃](ClO₄)₂·2H₂O and [Ni^II(H₂ L )₃](ClO₄)₂·MeOH·H₂O feature merely mer derivatives. Moessbauer spectroscopy and variable temperature magnetic measurements revealed the [Fe^II(H₂ L )₃]²⁺ complex core to exist in the low‐spin state, whereas the [Co^II(H₂ L )₃]²⁺ complex core resides in its high‐spin state, even at very low temperatures.

The η¹‐thiocarbamoyl palladium complexes [Pd(PPh₃)(η¹‐SCNMe₂)(η²‐S₂R)] (R = P(OEt)₂, 2 ; CNEt₂, 3 ) and trans‐[Pd(PPh₃)₂(η¹‐SCNMe₂)(η¹‐Spy)], 4 , (pyS: pyridine‐2‐thionate) are prepared by reacting the η²‐thiocarbamoyl palladium complex [Pd(PPh₃)₂(η²‐SCNMe₂)][PF₆], 1 with (EtO)₂PS₂NH₄, Et₂NCS₂Na, and pySK in methanol at room temperature, respectively. Treatment of 1 with dppm (dppm: bis(diphenylphosphino)methane) in dichloromethane at room temperature gives complex [Pd(PPh₃)(η¹‐SCNMe₂)(η²‐dppm)] [PF₆], 5 . All of the complexes are identified by spectroscopic methods and complex 1 is determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction.
