Syntheses and structure of bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)dithiophosphinato complexes
Bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)phosphane Cp*2PH reacts with sulfur under basic conditions to give the corresponding dithiophosphinate salts M+ CP*2PS−2 (5 M+ = HNEt+3, 6 M+ = Li+), which are formed via the intermediate CP*2P(S)H (4). Both salts on treatment with cobalt(II) chloride give rise to the transition metal dithiophosphinate 7. The structures of this new type of diorganodithiophosphinate complexes in the solid state have been investigated. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Heteroatom Chem 8: 521–525, 1997
Ferrocenylbis(ylene) phosphoranes
The ferrocenylbis(methylene)phosphorane Fc-P(=CTms 2 ) 2 ( 1 ) (Fc = −C 5 H 4 FeC 5 H 5 ) can be synthesized starting from ferrocenyldichlorophosphane FcPCl 2 or ferrocenyldilithiophosphane FcPLl 2 . The X-ray structure of ( 1 ) shows some unusual structural features, which indicate considerable electronic interaction of the ferrocenyl group and the σ 3 λ 5 -phosphorane unit. As a consequence of this interaction, the rotational barrier of the methylene bonds is extraordinary low. Therefore, in contrast to other bis(methylene)phosphoranes, the endo - and exo -Tms groups are indistinguishable on the NMR time scale even at −100°C. The analogous ferrocenylbis(imino)phosphorane Fc-P(=NTms) 2 ( 9…
Bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)-Substituted Phosphanes: Synthesis and Structure
The bis(1,2,3,4,5-pentamethyl-1,3-cyclopentadien-1-yl)phosphanes 3−7 are formed in good yields by the reaction of the halogenophosphanes 2a or 2b with the appropriate nucleophile. Following another route, the dialkylaminobis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)phosphanes 11a−c have been synthesized by the treatment of dichloro(dialkylamino)phosphanes with two equivalents of (pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)lithium. The compounds 3−11 have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and 3, 5, 6, and 11a have also been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The molecular structure of 11a is governed by steric congestion, which typically would lead to a parallel arrangement of …
Synthesis and reactivity of P-ferrocenylalkylidenephosphanes and related iminophosphanes and diphosphenes
P-Ferrocenyl-substituted alkylidenephosphanes have been prepared and characterized spectroscopically. Their ready conversion to the corresponding acylphosphanes and 1,2-diacyldiphosphanes, as well as a new type of phosphirene synthesis are presented. The X-ray structure of the tetraferrocenyl-substituted diacyldiphosphane has been investigated. Furthermore, P-ferrocenyl iminophosphanes and their complexation behaviour are described. Diferrocenyldiphosphene, which is known to be unstable, has been stabilized by complexation; this has been confirmed by NMR-spectroscopy and X-ray structure analysis.
