Alternativ-Liganden. XXII. Rhodium(I)-Komplexe mit Donor/Akzeptor-Liganden des Typs Me2PCH2CH2SiXnMe3−(X = F,Cl, OMe)

Alternative Ligands. XXII. Rhodium(I) complexes with Donor/Acceptor Ligands of the Typs Me₂PCH₂CH₂SiX_nMe_3?n(X = F, Cl, OMe) Donor/acceptor ligand of the type Me₂PCH₂SiX_nMe_3?n react with [Rh(CO)₂Cl]₂ ( 1 ) to give the mononuclear complexes RhCl(CO)(PMe₂CH₂CH₂SiX_nMe_3?n)₂ ( 2-6 , Table 1) with planar geometry of the donor atoms, one exception being Me₂PCH₂CH₂CH₂SiCl₃, yielding the crystalline Rh^III-complex RhCl₂(CO)(PMe₂CH₂CH₂SiCl₂)(PMe₂CH₂CH₂SiCl₃) ( 7 ) by oxidative addition of one of the SiCl bonds to the Rh¹ precursor. Structures with Rh → Si interaction between the basic central atoms and the acceptor group SiX_nMe_3?n could be detected in the isolated products neither spectroscopically nor by X-ray diffraction of the two representatives RhCl(CO)(PMe₂CH₂CH₂SiF₃)₂ ( 2 ) and RhCl(CO)[PMe₂CH₂CH₂siF₃]₂ ( 2 ) and RhCl(CO) [PMe₂CH₂CH₂Si(OMe₃]₂ ( 6 ). The presence of such acid/base adducts in the reaction mixture is indicated for the more acidic acceptor groups SiX_nMe_3?n byv_co values near 1990cm^?1, (see Table 3). The complex RhCl(CO)PMe₃)(PMe₂CH₂CH₂SiF₃ ( 8 ) is obtained by the reaction of RhCl(CO)(PMe₃)₂ ( 9 ) with Me₂PCH₂SiF₃ and has been identified spectroscopically in a mixture with 2 and 9 .
