Synthesis of a New C3-Symmetric Tripodal P4-Tetradentate Ligand and Its Application to the Formation of Chiral Metal Complexes
2010
A novel C3-symmetric tetradentate tripodal ligand with phosphorus as coordinating atoms has been synthesized in good yields. Its coordination ability through the four phosphorus atoms, three at the...
Rhodium (II) compounds with functionalized metalated phosphines as bridging ligands
2005
Abstract The reaction of Rh2(O2CCH3)4 · 2CH3OH with the phosphine P(4-BrC6H4)2(C6H5), 2, results in the formation of the monometalated compound Rh2(O2CCH3)3[PC] · 2CH3CO2H (PC representing a metalated P(4-BrC6H4)2(C6H5)). The reaction involves selective metalation of the phosphine at one Br-substituted ring (12:1 isomer ratio). The reaction of Rh2(O2CCH3)3[(4-BrC6H3)P(4-BrC6H4)(C6H5)] · 2CH3CO2H, 4, with one additional mol of triphenylphosphine yields a mixture of two main stereoisomers Rh2(O2CCH3)2[(4-BrC6H3)P(4-BrC6H4)(C6H5)] [(C6H4)P(C6H5)2] · 2CH3CO2H, 5a and 5b, that were isolated as pure compounds. These two compounds were resolved in the corresponding M and P enantiomers as trifluoro…
Multifaceted Palladium Catalysts Towards the Tandem Diboration-Arylation Reactions of Alkenes
2008
Novel Pd(2) (6+) compounds have been synthesized in high yield. These compounds and their Pd(2) (4+) counterparts as synthetic precursors mediate the diboration of vinylarenes and aliphatic 1-alkenes, and under mild and basic reaction conditions they produce a variety of 1,2-diboronate esters with excellent conversions and chemoselectivities. The presence of bis(catecholato)diboron (B(2)cat(2)) favours the reduction of Pd(III) to Pd(II), while the catalytic precursor of Pd(II) is transformed into Pd(0)-nanoparticles. An "in situ" catalytic tandem reaction has been designed to transform the diboronate intermediates into the monoarylated product, which after oxidative workup, provides the car…
Electrochemical chiral recognition by microparticle coatings of Pd complexes with bridging cyclometalated phosphines
2008
Abstract The palladium(II) dinuclear complex with bridging cyclometalated phosphines, {Pd2[μ-(C6H4)PPh2]2(μ-O2CCH3)2} (Pd2L2), having a paddlewheel structure, is reversibly oxidized in CH2Cl2 to a dinuclear palladium(III) analogue via two successive one-electron steps. Solid state voltammetry of Pd2L2 in contact with aqueous electrolytes produce as one-electron oxidation with two competing mechanisms involving anion intercalation/anion binding between/to metal centres, chloride ions acting as inhibitors for the first pathway. R- and S-Pd2L2 produces a significant stereoselective electrocatalytic activity with respect to the oxidation of l - and d -glutamic acid in alkaline media.

Dinuclear Ortho-Metalated Palladium(II) Compounds with N,N- and N,O-Donor Bridging Ligands. Synthesis of New Palladium(III) Complexes
2011
New dinuclear ortho-metalated palladium(II) compounds with N,N′-diarylformamidinates, Pd2[(C6H4)PPh2]2[R′NC(H)NR′]2 (R′ = C6H5, 3a; R′ = p-CH3C6H4, 3b; R′ = p-CH3OC6H4, 3c) and N,O-donor ligands, Pd2[(C6H4)PPh2]2[N,O]2 (N,O = succinimidate (5), phtalimidate (6), 2-hydroxypyridinate (7), acetanilidate (8)) have been synthesized and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction methods. The oxidation with iodobenzene dichloride gave new and rare Pd26+ compounds, Pd2[(C6H4)PPh2]2[R′NC(H)NR′]2Cl2 (R′ = C6H5, 4a; R′ = p-CH3C6H4, 4b). DFT calculations on the Pd24+ → Pd26+ oxidation reaction show that the substituents on the amidinate N atoms have a greater effect on the reaction energy …
