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 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.

    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.

    Two routes to the title compounds are evaluated. First, a ca. 0.01 M CH 2 Cl 2 solution of H 3 B·P((CH 2 ) 6 CH=CH 2 ) 3 ( 1 ·BH 3 ) is treated with 5 mol % of Grubbs' first generation catalyst (0 °C to reflux), followed by H 2 (5 bar) and Wilkinson's catalyst (55 °C). Column chromatography affords H 3 B·P( n- C 8 H 17 ) 3 (1%), H 3 B· P ((CH 2 ) 13 C H 2 )( n -C 8 H 17 ) (8%; see text for tie bars that indicate additional phosphorus–carbon linkages, which are coded in the abstract with italics), H 3 B· P ((CH 2 ) 13 C H 2 )((CH 2 ) 14 ) P ((CH 2 ) 13 C H 2 )·BH 3 ( 6 ·2BH 3 , 10%), in,out -H 3 B·P((CH 2 ) 14 ) 3 P·BH 3 ( in,out - 2 ·2BH 3 , 4%) and the stereoisomer ( in,in / out,out )- 2 ·2BH 3 (2%). Four of these structures are verified by independent syntheses. Second, 1,14-tetradecanedioic acid is converted (reduction, bromination, Arbuzov reaction, LiAlH 4 ) to H 2 P((CH 2 ) 14 )PH 2 ( 10 ; 76% overall yield). The reaction with H 3 B·SMe 2 gives 10 ·2BH 3 , which is treated with n -BuLi (4.4 equiv) and Br(CH 2 ) 6 CH=CH 2 (4.0 equiv) to afford the tetraalkenyl precursor (H 2 C=CH(CH 2 ) 6 ) 2 (H 3 B)P((CH 2 ) 14 )P(BH 3 )((CH 2 ) 6 CH=CH 2 ) 2 ( 11 ·2BH 3 ; 18%). Alternative approaches to 11 ·2BH 3 (e.g., via 11 ) were unsuccessful. An analogous metathesis/hydrogenation/chromatography sequence with 11 ·2BH 3 (0.0010 M in CH 2 Cl 2 ) gives 6 ·2BH 3 (5%), in,out - 2 ·2BH 3 (6%), and ( in,in / out,out )- 2 ·2BH 3 (7%). Despite the doubled yield of 2 ·2BH 3 , the longer synthesis of 11 ·2BH 3 vs 1 ·BH 3 renders the two routes a toss-up; neither compares favorably with precious metal templated syntheses.

    CuI catalyzes reactions of cis -(R 2 C(CH 2 PPh 2 ) 2 )Pt(CCCCH) 2 and cis -(R 2 C(CH 2 PPh 2 ) 2 )PtI 2 in secondary amine solvents HNR’ 2 to give the title adducts [(R 2 C(CH 2 PPh 2 ) 2 )Pt(CCCC)] 4 ·(H 2 NR’ 2 + I − ) n (R/R’/ n = Me/Et/1, Me/((CH 2 CH 2 ) 2 O) 0.5 /3, Et/Et/1, Et/CH 2 CHCH 2 /1; 92–42%). Crystal structures of these or closely related species establish folded Pt 4 cores containing ammonium cation guests, with NH/ and NCH/CC hydrogen bonding. DOSY NMR experiments show that the host/guest relationship can be maintained in solution.
