A series of bridged diphosphinothioyl bidentate ligands has been synthesized and several have been found to form stable complexes with a number of "class b" metal halides. The infrared spectra indicate that the ligands form six-membered ring chelates by coordination ziia both thiophosphoryl donor sites. The sulfur-bridged ligands undergo cleavage to yield phosphorodithioate complexes.
The preparation, infrared spectra in the carbonyl stretching region, and phophorus-31 nmr spectra of nine "mixed" phophorus ligand derivatives of the group VI metal carbonyls are reported. In the two compounds which have phosphorus atoms in cis positions, the phosphorus-phosphorus spin-spin coupling constant is considerably smaller than for those corresponding situations with trans phosphorus atoms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
