Reactions of pyridine-2-carbaldimines with chloro-bridged palladium(II) and platinum(II) 2-methylallyl dimers. Solution behaviour of the cationic complexes [M(n3-2-MeC3H4)(py-2-CHNR)]+

Abstract The reactions of pyridine-2-carbaldimines, py-2- CHNR (R = C6H4OMe-p, Me), with allylic dimers [MCl(n3-2-MeC3H4)]2 give rise to stoichiometry, concentration, solvent and temperature dependent equilibria, in which the cationic complexes [M(n3- 2-MeC3H4)(py-2-CHNR)]+ and the anion [MCl2(n3- 2-MeC3H4)]- or Cl- are involved. In general, the ligand/dimer reaction (1/1 molar ratio) yields the ionic products [M(n3-2-MeC3H4)(py-2-CHNR)]- [MCl2(n3-2-MeC3H4)], which can be isolated as solids, whereas the same reaction in a 1/0.5 molar ratio yields the species [M(n3-2-MeC3H4 )(py-2-CH NR)] Cl, which can be studied only in solution, but are easily converted into [M(n3-2-MeC3H4)(py-2-CH NR…

PREPARATION AND REACTIONS OF 2-PYRIDYLPLATINUM(II) COMPLEXES [PTCL(C5H4N-C2)(TERTIARY PHOSPHINE)2] - COMPOUNDS WITH A MARKEDLY NUCLEOPHILIC PYRIDINE NITROGEN ATOM

Abstract The 2-pyridyl complex trans -[PtCl(C 5 H 4 N- C 2 )(PPh 3 ) 2 ] (I) can be prepared in high yield by oxidative addition of 2-chloropyridine to [Pt(PPh 3 ) 4 ]. The reaction of I with 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane yields the cis derivative [PtCl(C 4 5 H 4 N- C 2 )(dppe)] (II). In polar solvents, the latter rearranges to the binuclear cationic complex [Pt(μ-C 5 H 4 N- C 2 , N )(dppe)] 2 Cl 2 . The reaction of I with [PdCl(η 3 -2-MeC 3 H 4 )] 2 (1/0.5 molar ratio) gives the products [PtCl(μ-C 5 H 4 N- C 2 , N )(PPh 3 )] 2 (IV) and [PdCl(η 3 -2-MeC 3 H 4 )(PPh 3 )]. 31 P NMR monitoring of the reaction suggests that PPh 3 transfer occurs in a binuclear platinum/palladium intermediate…

Protonation and methylation reactions of 2-pyridyl-palladium(II) and -platinum(II) complexes

Abstract The reactions of strong acids HX and HClO4 with the 2-pyridyl complexes [PdX(μ-C5H4N-C2,N)(PPh3)]2 (X = Cl, Br), trans-[PdCl(C5H4N-C2)(PEt3)2] and [PdCl(C5H4N-C2)(dppe)] yield the N-protonated derivatives cis-[PdX2-(C5H5N-C2)(PPh3)], trans-[PdCl(C5H5N-C2)(PEt3)2]ClO4 and [PdCl-(C5H5N-C2)(dppe)]ClO4, respectively. The terminal 2-pyridyl group of trans-[PdCl(C5H4N-C2)(PEt3)2] and [PdCl(C5H4N-C2)(dppe)] also reacts with Me2SO4/NaClO4 to give trans-[PdClC5H4(l-Me)N-C2(PEt3)2]ClO4 and [PdClC5H4(l-Me)N-C2(dppe)]ClO4. Analogous N-protonation or N-methylation reactions occur with trans-[PtBr(C5H4N-C2)(L)2] (L = PEt3, PPh3). The complexes trans-[MX(C5H5N-C2)(PMe2Ph)2]ClO4 (M = Pd, X = Cl an…

Preparation and protonation of 2-pyrimidyl- and 2-pyrazylpalladium(II) complexes

Abstract The oxidative addition of 2-chloropyrimidine or 2-chloropyrazine to [Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 ] yields a mixture of trans -[PdCl(C 4 H 3 N 2 - C 2 )(PPh 3 ) 2 ] (I) and [PdCl(μ-C 4 H 3 N 2 - C 2 , N 1 )(PPh 3 (II) (C 4 H 3 N 2 = 2-pyrimidyl or 2-pyrazyl group). The mononuclear complexes I are quantitatively converted into the binuclear species II upon treatment with H 2 O 2 . The reaction of II with HCl gives the N -monoprotonated derivatives cis -[PdCl 2 (C 4 H 4 N 2 - C 2 )(PPh 3 )] (III), from which the cationic complexes trans -[PdCl(C 4 H 4 N 2 - C 2 )(L) (L = PPh 3 , IV; PMe 2 Ph, V; PEt 3 , VI) can be prepared by ligand substitution reactions. Reversible proton dissociation occurs in so…

Preparation and reactions of 1-methylpyrid-6-one-2-yl compounds of palladium(II) and platinum(II)

Abstract The compounds trans -[MCl{(1-Me)C 5 H 3 (6-O)N- C 2 }(L) 2 ] (M = Pd, Pt; L = PPh 3 , PMe 2 Ph), can be prepared from the reaction of the corresponding 1-methyl-6-chloro-2-pyridylium cationic complexes, trans -[MCl{(1-Me)C 5 H 3 (6-Cl)N- C 2 }(L) 2 ]ClO 4 , with a mixture of acetic acid, ethanol, and triethylamine in the molar ratio M/MeCO 2 H/EtOH/NEt 3 of 1/3/3/4. The rate is slow compared to that of the 1-methyl-2-chloropyridinium cation under similar conditions, and is markedly affected by the steric and electronic effects of the trans -MCl(L) 2 unit. The novel 1-methylpyrid-6-one-2-yl derivatives have been characterized by conventional spectroscopic techniques and by reactions…

N-protonated 2-pyridylnickel(II) complexes insertion of isocyanides into the nickel2-pyridyl bond

The reaction of the binuclear complex [NiCl(μ-2-py)(PPh3)]2 (μ-2-py = μ-C5H4N-C2,N) with the phosphines L (L = PPh3, PMePh2, PMe2Ph or PEt3) or dppe (= 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane) in the presence of HClO4 yields the N-protonated 2-pyridyl derivatives trans-[NiCl(2-pyH)(L)2]ClO4 or [NiCl(2-pyH)(dppe)] ClO4 (2-pyH = C5H5N-C2) with a square-planar coordination around the nickel(II) center. These products are largely associated through hydrogen bonding between the NH group and the perchlorate anion, both in the solid and in chlorinated solvents. The configuration in solution has been studied by 1H and 31P NMR spectroscopy. In the complex trans-[NiCl(2-pyH)(PMe2Ph)2]ClO4, the planar 2-pyH…
