From a trinuclear platinum(III) phosphido derivative to a platinum(II) cluster: formation of a P-C bond.

Reaction of the trinuclear Pt(III)-Pt(III)-Pt(II) [(C6F5)2Pt(III)(mu-PPh2)2Pt(III)(mu-PPh2)2Pt(C6F5)2] (2) derivative with NBu4Br or NBu4I results in the formation of the trinuclear Pt(II) complexes [NBu4][(PPh2C6F5)(C6F5)Pt(mu-PPh2)(mu-X)Pt(mu-PPh2)2Pt(C6F5)2] [X = I (3), Br (4)] through an intramolecular PPh2/C6F5 reductive coupling and the formation of the phosphine PPh2C6F5. The trinuclear Pt(II) complex [(PPh2C6F5)(C6F5)Pt(mu-PPh2)Pt(mu-PPh2)2Pt(C6F5)2] (5), which displays two Pt-Pt bonds, can be obtained either by halide abstraction in 4 or by refluxing of 2 in CH2Cl2. This latter process also implies an intramolecular PPh2/C6F5 reductive coupling. Treatment of complex 5 with several ligands (Br-, H-, and CO) results in the incorporation of the ligand to the cluster and elimination of one (X = H-) or both (X = Br-, CO) Pt-Pt bonds, forming the trinuclear complexes [NBu4][(PPh2C6F5)(C6F5)Pt(mu-PPh2)(mu-X)Pt(mu-PPh2)2Pt(C6F5)2] [X = Br (6), H (7)] or [(PPh2C6F5)(C6F5)Pt(mu-PPh2)2Pt(mu-PPh2)(CO)Pt(C6F5)2(CO)] (8). The structures of the complexes have been established on the basis of 1H, 19F, and 31P NMR data, and the X-ray structures of the complexes 2, 3, 5, and 7 have been established. The chemical relationship between the different complexes has also been studied.

Tetranuclear platinum phosphido complexes with different structures.

The addition of [NBu4]Br or [NBu4][BH4] to solutions of [Pt4(mu-PPh2)4(C6F5)4(CO)2] yields the complexes [NBu4]2[Pt4(mu-PPh2)4(mu-X)2(C6F5)4] (X=Br, H,) in which the two CO groups have been replaced by two anionic, bridging X ligands. The total valence electron counts are 64 and 60, respectively; thus, complex does not require Pt-Pt bonds, while two metal-metal bonds are present in, as their NMR spectra confirm. Also, the NMR spectra indicate a nonsymmetrical "Pt(mu-PPh2)2Pt(mu-PPh2)(mu-X)Pt(mu-PPh2)(mu-X)Pt" disposition for and. Treatment of with HX (X=Cl, Br) yields the complexes [NBu4]2[Pt4(mu-PPh2)4(mu-H)2(C6F5)3X] (X=Cl, Br,). These complexes react with [Ag(OClO 3)PPh3] with displacement of the halide and formation of [NBu4][Pt4(mu-PPh2)4(mu-H)2(C6F5)3PPh3]. Complexes maintain the same basic skeleton as, with two Pt-Pt bonds. Complex is, however, an isomer of the symmetric [NBu4]2[{(C6F5)2Pt(mu-PPh2)2Pt(mu-Br)}2], which has been prepared by a metathetical process from the well-known [NBu4]2[{(C6F5)2Pt(mu-PPh2)2Pt(mu-Cl)}2]. The comparison of the X-ray structures of and confirms the different disposition of the bridging ligands, and their main structural differences seem to be related to the size of Br- and its position in the skeleton.

Synthesis and Crystal and Electronic Structures of the Dinuclear Platinum Compounds [PEtPh(3)](2)[Pt(2)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(2)(C(6)F(5))(4)] and [Pt(2)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(2)(C(6)F(5))(4)]: A Computational Study by Density Functional Theory.

The electrolytic behavior of the dinuclear complexes [NBu(4)](2)[MM'(&mgr;-PPh(2))(2)(C(6)F(5))(4)] (M = M' = Pt (1), Pd (1a); M = Pt, M' = Pd (1b)) has been studied, showing electrochemically irreversible oxidation and related reduction processes. The chemical oxidation of the binuclear compound for M = M' = Pt, results in the formation of the binuclear Pt(III) compound [Pt(2)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(2)(C(6)F(5))(4)]. The crystal structure analysis of both complexes has been carried out, showing very similar structures with similar Pt-C and Pt-P distances and analogous skeletons. However the Pt-Pt distances are very different, 3.621(1) Å for the Pt(II) compound and 2.7245(7) Å for the Pt(III) derivative (as are the parameters geometrically related to this Pt-Pt distance), suggesting that, in the Pt(III) compound, there is a strong Pt-Pt bond. Results of DFT calculations on [Pt(2)(&mgr;-PH(2))(2)(C(6)F(5))(4)](n)()(-) (n = 2, 0) agree very well with the crystallographic data and indicate that, in the Pt(III) compound, there is approximately a single sigma bond between the metal atoms.

Synthesis, Molecular Structure, and Reactivity of the Tetranuclear Complex [NBu(4)](2)[Pd(4)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(2)(&mgr;-Cl)(4)(C(6)F(5))(4)]. Molecular Structure of [Pd(2)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(C(6)F(5))(2)(bipy)(2)]ClO(4).C(6)H(14).

Anionic tetranuclear complexes with the molecular formula [NBu(4)](2)[Pd(4)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(2)(&mgr;-X)(4)(C(6)F(5))(4)] [X = Cl (1), Br (2)] were obtained by reaction of [NBu(4)](2)[Pd(2)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(2)(C(6)F(5))(4)] and PdCl(2) (or K(2)[PdCl(4)]) in acetone, followed by reaction with KBr for 2. The reactions of 1 with neutral monodentate (L) or bidentate (L-L) ligands afford the dinuclear derivatives [Pd(2)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(&mgr;-Cl)(C(6)F(5))(2)L(2)] [L = PPh(3) (3), py (4)] or [Pd(2)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(C(6)F(5))(2)(L-L)(2)](n)() [n = 1-, L-L = acac (6); n = 1+, L-L = bipy (7) or phen (8)]. The structures of complexes 1 and 7 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The bis(acetone) solvate of complex 1, [NBu(4)](2)[Pd(4)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(2)(&mgr;-Cl)(4)(C(6)F(5))(4)].2C(3)H(6)O, crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2(1)/c, with a = 11.679(5) Å, b = 16.552(7) Å, c = 23.868(8) Å, beta = 101.10(3) degrees, V = 4527.6(15) Å(3), and Z = 2. The central core of the anion has the shape of a rectangle with the four Pd atoms in the corners. The hexane solvate of complex 7, [Pd(2)(&mgr;-PPh(2))(C(6)F(5))(2)(bipy)(2)][ClO(4)].C(6)H(14), crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2(1)/n, with a = 16.214(3) Å, b = 10.311(2) Å, c = 28.380(6) Å, beta = 100.82(3) degrees, V = 4660(2) Å(3), and Z = 4. In both complexes, the long Pd.Pd distances (>3.1 Å) clearly point to the absence of any Pd-Pd interaction.
