Synthesis, catalytic activity, and photophysical properties of 5,6-membered Pd and Pt SCS′-pincer complexes based on thiophosphorylated 3-amino(hydroxy)benzoic acid thioanilides
Thiophosphoryl-, Thiophosphoryloxy-, and Thiophosphorylamino-Benzene Derivatives as Novel Classes of Hybrid Pincer Ligands
摘要:
The synthetic approaches to novel families of SCE (E = S',N,O) hybrid pincer-type ligands bearing thophosphoryl, thiophosphoryloxy, and thiophosphorylamino groups in various combinations with thiophosphoryl-, thiocarbamoyl-, and imine- (including that of benzothiazole ring) donating functions have been developed. All of the ligands readily undergo direct cyclometallation (metal = Pd(II), Pt(II)) to afford 5,5- or 5,6-membered pincer complexes. Palladium complexes displayed from high to excellent catalytic performance in the Suzuki cross-coupling reaction of aryl bromides and phenylboronic acid and the higher asymmetry for a complex served as a factor of its higher catalytic activity.
