  • En route to diplatinum polyynediyl complexes trans,trans-(Ar)(R3P)2Pt(C≡C)nPt(PR3)2(Ar): Untold tales, including end-group strategies
Title: En route to diplatinum polyynediyl complexes trans,trans-(Ar)(R3P)2Pt(C≡C)nPt(PR3)2(Ar): Untold tales, including end-group strategies
Reactions of {(C 6 F 5 )Pt[S(CH 2 CH 2 -) 2 ](μ-Cl)} 2 and R 3 P yield the bis(phosphine) species trans -(C 6 F 5 )(R 3 P) 2 PtCl [R = Et ( Pt'Cl ), Ph, ( p -CF 3 C 6 H 4 ) 3 P; 88-81 %]. Additions of Pt'Cl and H(C≡C) n H ( n = 1, 2; HNEt 2 , 20 mol % CuI) give Pt'C 2 H (37 %, plus Pt'I , 16 %) and Pt'C 4 H (88 %). Homocoupling of Pt'C 4 H under Hay conditions (O 2 , CuCl, TMEDA, acetone) gives Pt'C 8 Pt' (85 %), but Pt'C 2 H affords only traces of Pt'C 4 Pt' . However, condensation of Pt'C 4 H and Pt'Cl (HNEt 2 , 20 mol % CuI) yields Pt'C 4 Pt' (97 %). Hay heterocouplings of Pt'C 4 H or trans -( p -tol)(Ph 3 P) 2 Pt(C≡C) 2 H ( Pt*C 4 H ) and excess HC≡CSiEt 3 give Pt'C 6 SiEt 3 (76 %) or Pt*C 6 SiEt 3 (89 %). The latter and wet n -Bu 4 N + F - react to yield labile Pt*C 6 H (60 %). Hay homocouplings of Pt*C 4 H and Pt*C 6 H give Pt*C 8 Pt* (64 %) and Pt*C 12 Pt* (64 %). Reaction of trans -(C 6 F 5 )( p -tol 3 P) 2 PtCl ( PtCl ) and HC≡CH (HNEt 2 , 20 mol % CuI) yields only traces of PtC 2 H . However, an analogous reaction with HC≡CSiMe 3 gives PtC 2 SiMe 3 (75 %), which upon treatment with silica yields PtC 2 H (77 %). An analogous coupling of trans -(C 6 F 5 )(Ph 3 P) 2 PtCl with H(C≡C) 2 H gives trans -(C 6 F 5 )(Ph 3 P) 2 Pt(C≡C) 2 H (34 %). Advantages and disadvantages of the various trans -(Ar)(R 3 P) 2 Pt end-groups are analyzed.  more » « less

    Reaction of ( p -tol 3 P) 2 PtCl 2 and Me 3 Sn(CC) 2 SiMe 3 (1 : 1/THF/reflux) gives monosubstituted trans -Cl( p -tol 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 2 SiMe 3 (63%), which with wet n -Bu 4 N + F − yields trans -Cl( p -tol 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 2 H ( 2 , 96%). Hay oxidative homocoupling (O 2 /CuCl/TMEDA) gives all- trans -Cl( p -tol 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 4 Pt(P p -tol 3 ) 2 Cl ( 3 , 68%). Reaction of 3 and Me 3 Sn(CC) 2 SiMe 3 (1 : 1/rt) affords monosubstituted all- trans -Cl( p -tol 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 4 Pt(P p -tol 3 ) 2 (CC) 2 SiMe 3 (46%), which is converted by a similar desilylation/homocoupling sequence to all- trans -Cl[( p -tol 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 4 ] 3 Pt(P p -tol 3 ) 2 Cl ( 7 ; 79%). Reaction of ( p -tol 3 P) 2 PtCl 2 and excess H(CC) 2 SiMe 3 (HNEt 2 /cat. CuI) gives trans -Me 3 Si(CC) 2 Pt(P p -tol 3 ) 2 (CC) 2 SiMe 3 (78%), which with wet n -Bu 4 N + F − affords trans -H(CC) 2 Pt(P p -tol 3 ) 2 (CC) 2 H (96%). Hay oxidative cross coupling with 2 (1 : 4) gives all- trans -Cl[( p -tol 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 4 ] 2 Pt(P p -tol 3 ) 2 Cl ( 10 , 36%) along with homocoupling product 3 (33%). Reaction of 3 and Me 3 Sn(CC) 2 SiMe 3 (1 : 2/rt) yields all- trans -Me 3 Si(CC) 2 ( p -tol 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 4 Pt(P p -tol 3 ) 2 (CC) 2 SiMe 3 ( 17 , 77%), which with wet n -Bu 4 N + F − gives all- trans -H(CC) 2 ( p -tol 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 4 Pt(P p -tol 3 ) 2 (CC) 2 H (96%). Reaction of 3 and excess Me 3 P gives all- trans -Cl(Me 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 4 Pt(PMe 3 ) 2 Cl ( 4 , 86%). A model reaction of trans -( p -tol)( p -tol 3 P) 2 PtCl and KSAc yields trans -( p -tol)( p -tol 3 P) 2 PtSAc ( 12 , 75%). Similar reactions of 3 , 7 , 10 , and 4 give all- trans -AcS[(R 3 P) 2 Pt(CC) 4 ] n Pt(PR 3 ) 2 SAc (76–91%). The crystal structures of 3 , 17 , and 12 are determined. The first exhibits a chlorine–chlorine distance of 17.42 Å; those in 10 and 7 are estimated as 30.3 Å and 43.1 Å.

    Abstract Reactions oftrans‐(C6F5)(p‐tol3P)2Pt(C≡C)nSiEt3(PtC2nSi;n=5, 7, 9) and excessPtClin the presence of wetn‐Bu4N+F−(to effect protodesilylation) under Sonogashira‐type conditions (CuCl, base, other additives) afford the title compoundsPtC10Pt,PtC14Pt, andPtC18Ptin 42–32 % yields. A four‐fold substitution of the phosphine ligands inPtC10Ptby PEt3affordsPt'C10Pt’(78 %), and a Sonogashira reaction ofPt'C2HandPt'ClaffordsPt'C2Pt’(68 %). The analogous reaction withPtC2SiandPtClis unsuccessful, presumably for steric reasons. The crystal structures ofPtC10Pt,PtC14Pt,Pt'C10Pt′, andPt'C2Pt’exhibit a number of interesting trends and features. Certain sp chain extension reactions that lead to or employ the precursorsPtC10Si,PtC12Si,PtC14Si, andPtC18Sisometimes give byproducts derived from C2loss, and possible origins are discussed. Related phenomena have been reported by others in the course of synthesizing extended conjugated polyynes.

    Abstract The dialkyl malonate derived 1,3‐diphosphines R2C(CH2PPh2)2(R=a, Me;b, Et;c,n‐Bu;d,n‐Dec;e, Bn;f,p‐tolCH2) are combined with (p‐tol3P)2PtCl2ortrans‐(p‐tol3P)2Pt((C≡C)2H)2to give the chelatescis‐(R2C(CH2PPh2)2)PtCl2(2 a–f, 94–69 %) orcis‐(R2C(CH2PPh2)2)Pt((C≡C)2H)2(3 a–f, 97–54 %). Complexes3 a–dare also available from2 a–dand excess 1,3‐butadiyne in the presence of CuI (cat.) and excess HNEt2(87–65 %). Under similar conditions,2and3react to give the title compounds [(R2C(CH2PPh2)2)[Pt(C≡C)2]4(4 a–f; 89–14 % (64 % avg)), from which ammonium salts such as the co‐product [H2NEt2]+Cl−are challenging to remove. Crystal structures of4 a,bshow skew rhombus as opposed to square Pt4geometries. The NMR and IR properties of4 a–fare similar to those of mono‐ or diplatinum model compounds. However, cyclic voltammetry gives only irreversible oxidations. As compared to mono‐platinum or Pt(C≡C)2Pt species, the UV‐visible spectra show much more intense and red‐shifted bands. Time dependent DFT calculations define the transitions and principal orbitals involved. Electrostatic potential surface maps reveal strongly negative Pt4C16cores that likely facilitate ammonium cation binding. Analogous electronic properties of Pt3C12and Pt5C20homologs and selected equilibria are explored computationally.

    Abstract The overarching goal of this study is to effect the elimination of platinum from adducts withcis–C≡C−Pt−C≡C‐ linkages, thereby generating novel conjugated polyynes. Thus, the bis(hexatriynyl) complextrans‐(p‐tol3P)2Pt((C≡C)3H)2is treated with 1,3‐diphosphines R2C(CH2PPh2)2to generate (R2C(CH2PPh2)2)2Pt((C≡C)3H)2(14; R=c,n‐Bu;e,p‐tolCH2). These condense with the diiodide complexes R2C(CH2PPh2)2PtI2(9 a,c) in the presence of CuI (cat.) and excess HNEt2to give the title macrocycles [(R2C(CH2PPh2)2)Pt(C≡C)3]4(16 c,e) as adducts of the byproduct [H2NEt2]+I−(30–66 %). DOSY NMR experiments establish that this association is maintained in solution, but NaOAc removes the ammonium salt. The bis(triethylsilylpolyynyl) complexes (n‐Bu2C(CH2PPh2)2)Pt((C≡C)nSiEt3)2(n=2, 3) are synthesized analogously to14 c. They react with I2at rt to give mainly the diiodide complex9 cand the coupling product Et3Si(C≡CC≡C)nSiEt3. The possibility of competing reactions giving IC≡C species is investigated. Analogous reactions of the Pt4C24macrocycle16 calso give9 c, but no sp13C NMR signals or mass spectrometric Cxz+ions (x=24–100) could be detected. It is proposed that some cyclo[24]carbon is generated, but then rapidly converts to other forms of elemental carbon. No cyclotetracosane (C24H48) is detected when this sequence is carried out in the presence of PtO2and H2.

    Exposure of 10π-electron benzazaphosphole 1 to HCl, followed by nucleophilic substitution with the Grignard reagent BrMgCCPh afforded alkynyl functionalized 3 featuring an exocyclic –CC–Ph group with an elongated P–C bond (1.7932(19) Å). Stoichiometric experiments revealed that treatment of trans -Pd(PEt 3 ) 2 (Ar)( i ) (Ar = p -Me ( C ) or p -F ( D )) with 3 generated trans -Pd(PEt 3 ) 2 (Ar)(CCPh) (Ar = p -Me ( E ) or p -F ( F )), 5 , which is the result of ligand exchange between P–I byproduct 4 and C/D , and the reductively eliminated product (Ar–CC–Ph). Cyclic voltammetry studies showed and independent investigations confirmed 4 is also susceptible to redox processes including bimetallic oxidative addition to Pd(0) to give Pd( i ) dimer 6-Pd2-(P(t-Bu)3)2 and reduction to diphosphine 7 . During catalysis, we hypothesized that this unwanted reactivity could be circumvented by employing a source of fluoride as an additive. This was demonstrated by conducting a Sonogashira-type reaction between 1-iodotoluene and 3 in the presence of 10 mol% Na 2 PdCl 4 , 20 mol% P( t -Bu)Cy 2 , and 5 equiv. of tetramethylammonium fluoride (TMAF), resulting in turnover and the isolation of Ph–CC–( o -Tol) as the major product.
