ABSTRACT
Reactions of platinum(0) tolane complexes, bearing a chelating ligand with P and N donor atoms, with the electrophilic fluorinating agent XeF2 give facile access to platinum(II) ß-fluorovinyl fluorido complexes. A series of new platinum(II) ß-fluorovinyl complexes have been synthesized and were structurally characterized. Further oxidation with XeF2 led to ortho-metalated platinum(IV) fluorido compounds. Additional reactions of platinum(0) tolane complexes, bearing a chelating P,P donor ligand, with XeF2 led to a variety of fluorido and fluorovinyl complexes.
ABSTRACT
The platinum(0) alkyne complexes [Pt(L)(η(2)-PhC[triple bond, length as m-dash]CPh)] 1-4 were synthesized by reactions of [Pt(cod)2] with diphenylacetylene and a phosphine ligand precursor (1: L = dcpe, 2: L = xantphos, 3: L = κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC3H6NMe2, 4: L = κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC2H4NMe2). Treatment of 1 or 4 with NFSI gave the complexes [Pt(F){N(SO2Ph)2}(dcpe)] (5) and [Pt(PhC[double bond, length as m-dash]CFPh){N(SO2Ph)2}{κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC2H4NMe2}] (8), whereas the reactivity of 2 and 3 towards NFSI led to product mixtures. The compounds [Pt(F){N(SO2Ph)2}(xantphos)] (6a) as well as [Pt(PhC[double bond, length as m-dash]CFPh){N(SO2Ph)2}{κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC2H4NMe2}] (7a) and [Pt(PhC[double bond, length as m-dash]CFPh)(F){κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC2H4NMe2}] (7b) were clearly identified. Ligand exchange reactions at 8 resulted in the formation of the ß-fluorovinyl platinum(ii) complexes [Pt(PhC[double bond, length as m-dash]CFPh){OC(O)CF3}{κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC2H4NMe2}] (9), [Pt(PhC[double bond, length as m-dash]CFPh)(FHF){κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC2H4NMe2}] (10) and [Pt(PhC[double bond, length as m-dash]CFPh)(F){κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC2H4NMe2}] (11). Treatment of 8 with dihydrogen yielded the fluorinated olefin (Z)-(1-fluoroethene-1,2-diyl)dibenzene and [Pt{N(SO2Ph)2}(H){κ(2)-(P,N)-iPr2PC2H4NMe2}] (12).
ABSTRACT
In this paper the synthesis and characterisation of ruthenium dihydrogen complexes bearing rigid aliphatic PNP pincer-type ligands are described. As one result hydride complexes were synthesised in good to high yields by a one-pot direct hydrogenation reaction. As another finding the dihydrogen complex, stabilised with a N-Me group in the ligand frame, can be converted with dimethylamine borane into a rare σ-boron complex [RuH2(BH3)(Me-PNP)] with rapid B-N decoupling. Additionally, we present the first mass spectrometric analysis of the synthesised σ-complexes via liquid injection field desorption/ionisation technique (LIFDI-MS).
