Protonation of palladium(II)-allyl and palladium(0)-olefin complexes containing 2-pyridyldiphenylphosphine
摘要:
The pendant nitrogen atom of the Ph2PPy ligand in the Pd(II)-allyl complexes [PdCl(eta(3)-2-CH3C3H4)( Ph2PPy)] (1) and [Pd(eta(3)-2-CH3-C3H4)(Ph2PPy)(2)]BF4 (3) has been protonated with methanesulfonic acid to afford the corresponding pyridinium salts [PdCl(eta(3)-2-CH3-C3H4)(Ph2PPyH)](CH3SO3) (1a) and [Pd(eta(3)-2-CH3-C3H4)(Ph2PPyH)(2)](CH3SO3)(2)(BF4) (3a).Protonation strongly influences the H-1 and C-13 NMR spectral parameters of the allyl moieties of 1a and 3a whose signals resonate at lower fields with respect to the parent species indicating that upon protonation Ph2PPy becomes a weaker sigma-donor and a stronger Pi-acceptor. The allyl moiety, which in 1 is static, becomes dynamic in 1a, the observed syn-syn and anti-anti exchange being due to deligation of the protonated phosphine from the metal centre. Treatment of complex 3 with diethylamine in the presence of fumaronitrile gives the new Pd(0)-olefin complex [Pd(eta(2)-fumaronitrile)(PPh2Py)(2)] (4) which has been characterized by elemental analysis and NMR spectroscopy. Low temperature protonation of 4 with methanesulfonic acid leads to the bis-protonated species [Pd(eta(2)-fumaronitrile)(Ph2PPyH)(2)](CH3SO3)(2) (4a) which is stable only at temperatures < 0 degrees C.

Cationic palladium(II)-allyl-complexes containing 2-pyridyldiphenylphosphine: X-ray crystal structure of the binuclear complex [Pd(η3-2-Me-allyl)(μ-Ph2PPy)]2(BF4)2. Detection of an intramolecular C(allyl)–H⋯phenyl ring π-interaction
摘要:
Reaction of [PdCl(eta(3)-2-Me-allyl)(Ph2PPy)] (1) with AgBF4 affords the new dinuclear cationic complex [Pd(eta(3)-2-Me-allyl)(mu-Ph2PPy)](2)(BF4)(2) (2). The X-ray structural analysis of 2 shows that the 2-pyridyldiphenylphosphine ligands adopt a binucleating role through the P and N atoms bridging two independent palladium centres to form an eight-membered metallocyclic ring. One of the anti hydrogen atoms of the allyl moiety was located very close to a phenyl ring of Ph2PPY indicating the occurrence of a CH/pi interaction. Addition of one equivalent of Ph2PPy to complex (2) affords the mononuclear cationic complex [Pd(eta(3) -2-Me-allyl)(Ph2PPy)(2)](BF4) (3). (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
