Abstract:
Cyanomethyl(diphenyl)phosphine (L) and o-cyanopheryl(diphenyl)phosphine (LI) react with H2PdX4 (X = Cl, Br) or K2PtCl4 to yield complexes of the type MX2E2(M = Pd, Pt; E = L, L'). Infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic data indicate that L and Ĺ are coordinated through the phosphorus atom, and that the Land L'-containing complexes have cis and trans geometries, respectively, The MC12E2 complexes react with potassium thiocyanate to yield derivatives of the type 1,(NCS):,L9, in which the thiocyanate groups are nitrogen-bonded to 'the metal.The reaction of L, L' or PdX2E2 (E = L or L') with either PdX2 (X = Cl, Br) or Na2PdX4, in a 1 to 1.1 mole ratio yields complexes of the type (PdX2E.)n. Infrared data indicate that the (PdX2L)n complexes are ligand- and the (PdX2L')n complexes halogen-bridged species.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306
