19F NMR study ofcis- andtrans- effects of substituted triphenylphosphine ligands intrans-(4-fluorophenyl)triarylphosphine-tri(4-fluorophenyl)phosphineplatinum 4-fluorothiophenoxides

A number of compounds of the type oftrans-4-FC₆H₄Pt(PAr₃)₂SC₆H₄F-4, where Ar is a substituted phenyl group, have been prepared starting from the corresponding chlorides. By exchange reactions oftrans-4-FC₆H₄PtP(C₆H₄F-4)₃]₂SC₆H₄F-4 with the above-mentioned compounds or Ar₃P,trans-4-FC₆H₄PtP(C₆H₄F-4)₃]PAr₃]SC₆H₄F-4 have been generated in solution. For the latter compounds, the effect of Ar₃P oncis- andtrans-ligands has been studied by the¹⁹F NMR technique. It has been shown that thecis- andtrans-effects of Ar₃P run parallel and are well described by pK _a values and ionization potentials of the unshared electron pair in Ar₃P, as well as by ⁰ constants of the aryl groups.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.
