Iminophosphines: synthesis, formation of 2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[1,3]azaphosphol-3-ium salts and N-(pyridin-2-yl)-2-diphenylphosphinoylaniline, coordination chemistry and applications in platinum group catalyzed Suzuki coupling reactions and hydrosilylations

The aprotic and protic bi- and multidentate iminophosphines 2-Ph₂PC₆H₄N=CR¹R² (R¹=H, R²=Ph=2a; R¹=Me R²=Ph=2b; R¹=H, R²=2-thienyl=2c; R¹=H, R²=C₆H₄-2-PPh₂=2d; R¹=H, R²=C₆H₄-2-OH=2e, R¹=H, R²=C₆H₄-2-OH-3-Bu^t=2f; R¹=H, R²=CH₂C(O)Me=2g) have been prepared by the acid catalyzed condensation of 2-(diphenylphosphino)aniline with the corresponding aldehyde–ketone. Iminophosphine 2d can be reduced with sodium cyanoborohydride to give the corresponding amino-diphosphine 2-Ph₂PC₆H₄N(H)CH₂C₆H₄-2-PPh₂ (2h). In the presence of a stoichiometric quantity of acid, 2-(diphenylphosphino)aniline reacts in an unexpected manner with benzaldehyde, salicylaldehyde, or acetophenone to give the corresponding 2,3-dihydro-1H-benzo[1,3]azaphosphol-3-ium salts and with pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde to give N-(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)-2-diphenylphosphinoylaniline, the latter of which has been characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography, as its palladium dichloride derivative. The attempted condensation of 2-(diphenylphosphino)aniline with pyridine-2-carboxaldehyde to give the corresponding pyridine-functionalized iminophosphine resulted in an unusual transformation involving the diastereoselective addition of two equivalents of aldehyde to give 1,2-dipyridin-2-yl-2-(o-diphenylphosphinoyl)phenylamino-ethanol, which has been characterized by a single-crystal X-ray structure determination. The bidentate iminophosphine 2-Ph₂PC₆H₄N=C(H)Ph reacts with [(cycloocta-1,5-diene)PdClX] X=Cl, Me) to give [Pd{2-Ph₂PC₆H₄N=C(H)Ph}ClX] and the imino-diphosphine 2-Ph₂PC₆H₄N=C(H)C₆H₄-PPh₂ reacts with [(cycloocta-1,5-diene)PdClMe] to give [Pd{2-Ph₂PC₆H₄N=C(H)C₆H₄---PPh₂}ClMe] and each has been characterized by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The monobasic iminophosphine 2-Ph₂PC₆H₄N=C(Me)CH₂C(O)Me reacts with [Ni(PPh₃)₂Cl₂] in the presence of NaH to give the phosphino–ketoiminate complex [Ni{2-Ph₂PC₆H₄N=C(Me)CHC(O)Me}Cl], which has been structurally characterized. Mixtures of iminophosphines 2a–h and a palladium source catalyze the Suzuki cross coupling of 4-bromoacetophenone with phenyl boronic acid. The efficiency of these catalysts show a marked dependence on the palladium source, catalysts formed from [Pd₂(OAc)₆] giving consistently higher conversions than those formed from [Pd₂(dba)₃] and [PdCl₂(MeCN)₂]. Catalysts formed from neutral bi- and terdentate iminophosphines 2a–d gave significantly higher conversions than those formed from their monobasic counterparts 2e–f. Notably, under our conditions the conversions obtained with 2a–c compare favorably with those of the standards; catalysts formed from tris(2-tolyl)phosphine and tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl)phosphite and a source of palladium. In addition, mixtures of [Ir(COD)Cl]₂ and 2a–h are active for the hydrosilylation of acetophenone; in this case catalysts formed from monobasic iminophosphines 2e–f giving the highest conversions.     

Heterobimetallische Komplexe mit Chelatliganden aus mehrzähnigen Aminen und 1,1-Bis(diphenylphosphan)ethen

Heterobimetallic Complexes with Chelate Ligands from Multidentate Amines and 1,1-Bis(diphenylphosphine)ethene By an addition reaction of bidentate amines Me₂N(CH₂)_nNH₂ (n = 2, as-4C2N; 3, as-5C2N) and vinylidene derivatives with an activated double bond CH₂ = C(PPh₂)₂M(CO)₄ (M = Cr, Mo, W) were synthesized in dichlormethane unsymmetrical chelate ligands of the type as-4C2N (or as-5C2N)PPM(CO)₄. They gave with divalent salts M′Y₂ (Y = ac, M′ = Cu, Ni. Y = Cl, M′ = Zn, Cd, Hg) the coloured bimetallic complexes M′Y(as-4C2N) (or as-5C2N)PPM(CO)₄ which were characterized by means of IR-, UV/VIS spectroscopic and ¹H, ¹³C and ³¹P NMR measurements. The molecular structures of the complexes Cuac₂(as-5C2N)PPCr(CO)₄, I and that of CdCl₂(as-4C2N)PPCr(CO)₄, II , were acertained by results of single crystal X-ray determinations. In the crystals of I—II , the coordination polyhedron of each chromium(0) central atom containing two phosphorous donor atoms in a four-membered chelate ring and four terminal CO ligands is octahedrally distorted. This coordination sphere is connected at the carbon ring atom via a methylen chain group (spacer) with the bidentate amine ligand, which has a secondary and a tertiary nitrogen donor atom. Both nitrogen atoms are coordinated with the Cuac₂ under formation of a new kind of [4 + 2]-coordination in a trischelate complex. The six-membered diamine chelat ring in I has a chair-like conformation. The chromium-cadmium complex II is dimer from which the Cd central atoms obtain the rare coordination number of five. The related five-membered diamine chelate ring has δ conformation.     

Complexes of tantalum with triaryloxides: Ligand and solvent effects on formation of hydride derivatives

A family of tantalum compounds supported by the triaryloxide [R-L]³⁻ ligands are reported [H₃(R-L) = 2,6-bis(4-methyl-6-R-salicyl)-4-tert-butylphenol, where R = Me or ^tBu]. The reaction of H₃[Me-L] with TaCl₅ in toluene gave [(Me-L)TaCl₂]₂ (1). The [^tBu-L] analogue [(^tBu-L)TaCl₂]₂ (2) was synthesized via treatment of TaCl₅ with Li₃[^tBu-L]. A THF solution of LiBHEt₃ was added to 1 in toluene to provide [(Me-L)TaCl(THF)]₂ (3), while treatment of 2 with 2 equiv of LiBHEt₃ or potassium in toluene followed by recrystallization from DME resulted in formation of [M(DME)₃][{(^tBu-L)TaCl}₂(μ-Cl)] [M = Li (4a), K (4b)]. When the amount of MBHEt₃ (M = Li, Na, K) was increased to 5 equiv, the analogous reactions in toluene afforded [{(bit-^tBu-L)Ta}₂(μ-H)₃M] [M = Li(THF)₂ (5a), Na(DME)₂ (5b), K(DME)₂ (5c)]. During the course of the reaction, the methylene CH activation of the ligand took place. Dissolution of 5a in DME produced [{(bit-^tBu-L)Ta}₂(μ-H)₃Li(DME)₂] (6), indicating that the coordinated THF molecules are labile. When the 2/LiBHEt₃ reaction was carried out in THF, the ring opening of THF occurred to yield [(^tBu-L)Ta(OBuⁿ)₂]₂ (7) along with a trace amount of [Li(THF)₄][{(^tBu-L)TaCl}₂(μ-OBuⁿ)] (8). Treatment of 2 with potassium hydride in DME yielded [{(^tBu-L)TaCl₂K(DME)₂}₂(μ-OCH₂CH₂O)] (9), in which the ethane-1,2-diolate ligand arose from partial C-O bond rupture of DME. The X-ray crystal structures of 2, 3, 4, 5a, 6, 7, and 9 are described.     

N-donor ligand complexes of nickel,zinc and copper: Comparisons with tetradentate N-donor ligands derived from Schiff bases

The nickel and zinc complexes of 2-aminomethylaniline (AMA) are reported. Both metals form the octahedral complex [M(AMA)₂(ONO₂)₂] (M = Ni, Zn) where the aromatic ligands lie in the meridial plane with the anilino donors trans to one another. The remaining nitrates coordinate axially. A simple comparison with the nitrogen donor disposition (cis/trans) in nickel complexes of tetradentate N₄ donor ligands derived from symmetric Schiff base ligands is presented. The discussion is extended to interrogate the bonding motifs of the nitrate ligands viz –ONO₂ in the nickel complexes of AMA compared to the two motifs (viz O₂NO and ONO₂) that are isolated for the nickel complexes of the macrocycle hexamethyltetraazacyclotetradecane.     

Selective synthesis of 2-substituted 4-carboxy oxazoles, thiazoles and thiazolidines from serine or cysteine amino acids

The synthesis of new 4-carboxy oxazoles, thiazoles and thiazolidines by condensation of serine or cysteine with aldehydes or acids is described. Due to the optimization of a mild and selective procedure, which takes advantage of the positive effect of microwave irradiation on the MnO₂ mediated oxidation step, the 2-substituted-4-carboxy derivatives can be obtained in multi-gram scale. Examples of coordination chemistry to Ni(II) and Co(II) are described.     

COMPLEXES OF MOLYBDENUM(V) AND LANTHANUM(III) WITH 2′,2″′-(2,6-PYRIDINEDIYLDIETHYLIDENE)-DIOXAMOHYDRAZIDE (H2DAPSOX)

Abstract

In a template synthesis from ethanolic solution of MoOCl₃, 2,6-diacetylpyridine (dap), and semioxamazide (sox), in the molar ratio 1:1:2, a dimeric molybdenum(V) complex [Mo₂O₂(H₂dapsox)₂]Cl₆ · 4H₂O (where H₂dapsox = 2′,2″′-(2,6-pyridinediyldiethylidenedioxa-mohydrazide) was obtained. In a similar reaction, starting from La(NO₃)₃ · 6H₂O, the complex [La(H₂dapsox)(NO₃) _x ](NO₃)_3-x · 1/2EtOH (x = 1,2), having coordination number 9, was obtained. In the latter complex two NO₃ Groups were bidentately coordinated in the solid state, but only one in the solution.

Besides [Mo₂O₂(TPP)₂] (TPP = tetraphenylporphyrin), the molybdenum(V) complex [Mo₂O₂ (H₂dapsox)₂]Cl₆ · 4H₂O is the only other known example of a dimeric μ-oxodimolybdenum(V) species that is paramagnetic (μ = 0.95 BM). One of the Mo atoms has pentagonal bipyramidal coordination, and the other pentagonal pyramidal coordination. In aqueous solution a rare example of a pentagonal pyramidal ion [MoO(dapsox)]⁺ is presumably present. Solution EPR spectra (at 77K) cannot be related to either of the two known types of Mo(V) species based on the extent of g anisotropy. The substances also were characterized by IR and electronic spectroscopy, and by thermal analysis.

基于多齿功能单体的三聚氰胺印迹材料的制备及应用

以三聚氰胺(MEL)为模板分子, 采用沉淀聚合方法研究了以衣康酸(IA)为多齿功能单体, 乙二醇二甲基丙烯酸酯(EGDMA)为交联剂时, 组分之间摩尔比对三聚氰胺印迹聚合物(MIP)选择性的影响. 研究发现, 当MEL与IA摩尔比为1:1.5时, 所合成的MIP对三聚氰胺具有最佳选择性, 选择性系数k=10.41(以三聚氰酸为对照物). 此时IA的识别位点(羧基)与三聚氰胺的可识别位点(胺基)摩尔比为1:1, 因此, 不会出现由过量功能单体引起的非特异性吸附. Scatchard分析结果表明, 这种MIP能够在更宽的三聚氰胺浓度范围(1~100 mg/L)内只表现出特异性吸附. 以灭蝇胺为对照物时, k_NIP<1但k_MIP>1, 该结果证明MIP对分子的形状有良好的识别能力. 最后, 以制备的MIP为固相萃取吸附剂, 结合高效液相色谱/紫外检测器(HPLC/UV)建立了三聚氰胺测定方法. 当牛奶(奶粉)中MEL的加标浓度分别为15, 600和4500 μg/L(μg/kg)时检测的加标回收率为92.34%~109.4%.     

Rare earth metal alkyl complexes bearing N,O,P multidentate ligands: Synthesis, characterization and catalysis on the ring-opening polymerization of l-lactide

Alkane elimination reactions of rare earth metal tris(alkyl)s, Ln(CH₂SiMe₃)₃(THF)₂ (Ln = Y, Lu) with the multidentate ligands HL^1-4, afforded a series of new rare earth metal complexes. Yttrium complex 1 supported by flexible amino-imino phenoxide ligand HL¹ was isolated as homoleptic product. In the reaction of rigid phosphino-imino phenoxide ligand HL² with equimolar Ln(CH₂SiMe₃)₃(THF)₂, HL² was deprotonated by the metal alkyl and its imino CN group was reduced to C-N by intramolecular alkylation, generating THF-solvated mono-alkyl complexes (2a: Ln = Y; 2b: Ln = Lu). The di-ligand chelated yttrium complex 3 without alkyl moiety was isolated when the molar ratio of HL² to Y(CH₂SiMe₃)₃(THF)₂ increased to 2:1. Reaction of steric phosphino β-ketoiminato ligand HL³ with equimolar Ln(CH₂SiMe₃)₃(THF)₂ afforded di-ligated mono-alkyl complexes (4a: Ln = Y; 4b: Ln = Lu) without occurrence of intramolecular alkylation or formation of homoleptic product. Treatment of tetradentate methoxy-amino phenol HL⁴ with Y(CH₂SiMe₃)₃(THF)₂ afforded a monomeric yttrium bis-alkyl complex of THF-free. The resultant complexes were characterized by IR, NMR spectrum and X-ray diffraction analyses. All alkyl complexes exhibited high activity toward the ring-opening polymerization of l-lactide to give isotactic polylactide with controllable molecular weight and narrow to moderate polydispersity.
