Phosphorus Monoxide Coordination Chemistry:  Synthesis and Structural Characterization of Tetranuclear Clusters Containing a PO Ligand

Abstract: The clusters Ru 4 (CO) 13 (PNPr i 2 ) (1) and Os 4 (CO) 13 (PNPr i 2 ) (4) have been prepared via the reactions of Cl 2 PNPr i 2 with respectively [Ru 4 (CO) 13 ] 2and the reaction product of Na 2 [Os-(CO) 4 ] and Os 3 (CO) 12 . The successful synthesis of 4 suggests that the reaction of Na 2 [Os-(CO) 4 ] with Os 3 (CO) 12 generates [Os 4 (CO) 13 ] 2-, thus providing a relatively easy route for the preparation of this dianion. Thermal decarbonylation of 1 and 4 affords the tetranuclear clusters M 4 (CO) 12 (PN… Show more

“…Whether this reflects a better π-acceptor capability for PPh vs PNPr i 2 or greater steric repulsion between the metal-ligand envelope and the PNPr i 2 ligand is uncertain. These distances are both significantly longer, however, than the Ru−P bond lengths observed for 2 (2.332(1) Å) and Ru 4 (CO) 13 (μ 3 -PNPr i 2 ) (2.348(1) Å).
2 Molecular structure of Ru 4 (CO) 10 (μ-CO)(μ 4 -PPh)(μ 4 -PNPr i 2 ) ( 6 ).

“…The latter always have a bridging ligand that spans two or three metal atoms, e.g. [Ru 4 (l-SR 2 )(l-CO)(CO) 12 ] [9] and [Ru 4 (l 3 -PR) (CO) 13 ] [10].…”

“…2 By contrast with its first row congener NO, 3 there are only a very small number of transition-metal complexes of the PO ligand; the first of these, [Ni 2 WCp 2 (CO) 4 (µ 3 -PO) 2 ] (Cp = η 5 -C 5 H 5 ), was obtained by Scherer et al, 4 by oxidation of a P 2 ligand using bis(trimethylsilyl) peroxide. Subsequent examples have been provided by Carty and co-workers 5 via hydrolysis of a capping aminophosphinidene ligand and by Butenschön and coworkers 6 who reported a series of tricobalt clusters capped by µ 3 -P, µ 3 -PO and µ 3 -PS ligands formed by oxidation using atmospheric oxygen or elemental sulfur. Examples of complexes containing the closely related PS ligand are also rare; to our knowledge, the examples of Butenschön and co-workers 6 and Visi-Orosz et al, 7 are the only examples of µ 3 -PS complexes, with a solitary example of a complex containing a terminal PS ligand being given by Cummins and co-workers.…”
