New potentially cytotoxic thiolatogold(I) complexes of 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene
Abstract 1,1′-Bis[chlorogold(I) diphenylphosphino] ferrocene (1) was chosen as the starting material to synthesize new thiolato gold(I) complexes. This has been achieved by substituting the chlorine atoms by monofunctional and bifunctional thiolates affording ‘open’ thiolatogold complexes and trimetallic ferrocenophane-type structures, respectively. The new 1,1′-bis(2,6-dithia-1-phosphanyl)ferrocene (7) containing directly linked P and S atoms was also prepared but no gold complex was obtained. Compound 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n with a=10.2632), b=21.064(4), c=16.259(3) A , β=97.06(2)° and V=3.488(1) A 3 . The distance between the two gold atoms (3.06 A) indicates a…
Rhodium and palladium complexes from 1,1′ and 1,2 ferrocenylphosphine as bidentate ligands. Versatile coordination
Abstract The complexation of the mixed bidentate ligands 1-diphenylphosphino-1′-diphenylthiophosphinoferrocenyl and 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocenyl with rhodium(I) and palladium(II) species yield a range of mono- and dirhodium or palladium complexes. Their interest as possible catalysts for alkene hydroformylation and alkoxycarbonylation and Heck coupling reactions has been assessed. Fe[C5Me4P(S)Ph2][C5Me4PPh2]PdCl2 and Fe[C5H2-1,2-(PPh2)2-4-tBu][C5H5]PdCl2 have been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
