Abstract: | The ligand 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)benzene, 1,3-C6H4(CH2PPh2)2 undergoes cyclometalation reactions, thus forming derivatives containing the tridentate moiety 2,6-bis(diphenylphosphinomethyl)phenyl,2,6-C6H3(CH2PPh2)2. Complexes of the type trans-[MBr(C6H3CH2PPh22)] with M = NiII, PdII, and PtII could be obtained and their crystal structures were here determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) methods. The Ni complex belongs to the space group P21/c with a = 10.257(2), b = 16.234(5), c = 17.475(4) Å, = 109.34(2), and Z = 4. The Pd complex belongs to the space group P21/n with a = 10.325(3), b = 16.279(4), c = 17.303(4) Å = 105.34(3), and Z = 4. The Pt complex belongs to the space group P21/n with a = 10.127(2), b = 14.776(2), c = 19.023(3) Å, = 91.01(1), and Z = 4. Different distortions are induced by the rigid tridentate ligand on the square planar coordinations of the three metals. A significant difference between the two M-P bond distances is present in the Pt complex and can also be found in an analogous Pd complex. |
