Reaction of Double Ylide C(PPh3)2 with [W(CO)6] – Crystal Structures of [(CO)5­W(CCPPh3)] and [(CO)5W{η1‐O2C2(PPh3)2}] and Bonding Analyses of [TM­(CCPR3)] Compounds

Abstract: The photochemically generated complex [(CO)5W(thf)] reacts with C(PPh3)2 (1) to provide the salt (HC{PPh3}2)2[W2(CO)10] (5) in high yield by abstraction of a proton from the solvent thf. With [W(CO)6], a slow reaction in benzene occurs to give a mixture of [(CO)5W{O2C2(PPh3)2}] (6) and the heterocumulene (phosphonioacetylide) complex [(CO)5W(CCPPh3)] (7) by a Wittig type reaction. Both compounds were characterized by spectroscopic and X‐ray diffraction analyses. Theoretical density functional calculations reve… Show more

“…Different theoretical and experimental studies report the complexation with different transition metal fragments, such as W(CO) 6 , W(CO) 5 , Ni(CO) 4 , Ni(CO) 3 , and AuCl 3b. 2226 The divalent E 0 analogues, borylene complexes, (BH)L 2 , and N I and P I , labeled nitreones and phospheones, have recently been investigated both theoretically and experimentally 2730. These compounds exhibit a very similar bent geometry, and reactivity towards Lewis acids and transition metals (AuCl).…”

“…Within the alkynyl component, the shortening of the bond to phosphorus upon passing from 1 a to 4 a[PF 6 ] 2 is pronounced (0.047 ) but the associated CC bond lengthening is small, so the linker largely retains the structural characteristics of an alkyne. Simple [R 3 P + C C] ligands are considered to be strong sdonors and weak p-acceptors, [20] and the relative charge densities obtained here from B3PW91 DFT studies point clearly to dominant valence-bond structure for 4 a 2+ that has Fe II endgroups and a dicationic biphosphane functionality ( Figure 2; NPA charges computed for IVa 2+ : Q Fe À0.14, Q P + 1.45; for Ia: Q Fe À0.13, Q P + 0.96). [21] Cyclic voltammetry experiments performed on isolated 4 a,b[PF 6 ] 2 are consistent with those performed on 1 a,b.…”

“…10 Thorough bonding analyses on the isovalent triphosphenium ions and carbodiphosphoranes confirm the presence of "lone pairs" of electrons in frontier orbitals; 11,12 however, the latter have far more precedent to act as a ligand to transition metals and also to main group Lewis acids. [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20] Of particular note is the ability of B to donate four electrons simultaneously to electron-deficient fragments such as {Ni(CO) 2 } (C), {BH 2 } + (D), {GeCl} + , and {PNR 2 } 2+ (E) that cannot be isolated with one traditional two-electron donor ligand (Fig. 1).…”
