AP,O,P′-tridentate mixed-donor scorpionate ligand: 6-[4,6-bis(diphenylphosphino)-10H-phenoxazin-10-yl]hexan-1-ol

Abstract

The title compound, C42H39NO2P2, is a P,O,P′-tridentate scorpionate-type ligand and has one mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit. The angles involving the P atoms range from 100.21 (7) to 104.89 (7)°. The N-hexa­nol group was found to be disordered and was refined over two positions with final occupancies of 0.683 (3) and 0.317 (3) which affected the C—O and C—N bond lengths. The bond lengths for C—O range from 1.402 (2) to 1.415 (2) Å and for C—N from 1.410 (2) to 1.448 (3) Å for the major disorder component; the corresponding ranges for the minor disorder component are 1.429 (3)–1.408 (3) and 1.474 (3)–1.474 (4) Å.
