31P and 195Pt solid-state NMR and DFT studies on platinum(i) and platinum(ii) complexes

³¹P and ¹⁹⁵Pt solid state NMR spectra on anti-[(PHCy)ClPt(μ-PCy₂)₂Pt(PHCy)Cl] (3) and [(PHCy₂)Pt(μ-PCy₂)(κ²P,O-μ-POCy₂)Pt(PHCy₂)] (Pt–Pt) (4) were recorded under CP/MAS conditions (³¹P) or with the CP/CPMG pulse sequence (¹⁹⁵Pt) and compared to data obtained by relativistic DFT calculations of ³¹P and ¹⁹⁵Pt CS tensors and isotropic shielding at the ZORA Spin Orbit level.

Polynuclear platinum phosphanido/phosphinito complexes: formation of P-O and P-O-P bonds through reductive coupling processes

A mixture of the asymmetric complexes of formula [(RF)2Pt(μ-Ph2PO)(μ-PPh2)Pt(μ-PPh2)2Pt(solv)(solv')] [(1-(solv)(solv')] (solv, solv' = acetone, H2O, CH3CN) has been prepared by reaction of [(RF)2Pt(II)(μ-PPh2)2Pt(II)(μ-PPh2)2Pt(II)(NCCH3)2] with AgClO4 in CH3CN/acetone. The lability of the Pt-solvent bonds allows the displacement of the coordinated solvent molecules by dppm or Cl(-) and the isolation of the tri- or hexanuclear phosphanido/phosphinito Pt(ii) complexes [(C6F5)2Pt(μ-PPh2)(μ-PPh2O)Pt(μ-PPh2)2Pt(dppm)] (2) or [NBu4]2[(C6F5)2Pt(μ-PPh2)(μ-PPh2O)Pt(μ-PPh2)2Pt(μ-Cl)2Pt(μ-PPh2)2Pt(μ-PPh2)(μ-PPh2O)Pt(C6F5)2] (as a mixture of the two possible isomers 4a and 4b). Complex 2 reacts with AgClO4 to form the tetranuclear derivative [(C6F5)2Pt(μ-PPh2)(μ-PPh2O)Pt(μ-PPh2)2Pt(dppm)Ag(OClO3)] (3), which displays two Pt-Ag donor-acceptor bonds. The mixture of the hexanuclear isomers 4a-4b reacts with Tl(acac) producing the acetylacetonato complex [NBu4][(C6F5)2Pt(μ-PPh2)(μ-PPh2O)Pt(μ-PPh2)2Pt(acac)] (5) which, upon reaction with HCl, yields back the mixture of 4a-4b. The reaction of 4a-4b with PPh3 produces [NBu4][(C6F5)2Pt(μ-PPh2)(μ-PPh2O)Pt(μ-PPh2)2Pt(Cl)(PPh3)] (6) as a mixture of isomers with the chloro ligand located syn (6a) or anti (6b) to the PPh2O(-) group. Either the reaction of 6 with AgClO4 or the treatment of 5 with HPPh3ClO4 results in the formation of the species [(C6F5)2Pt(II)(μ-PPh2)2Pt(I)(μ-PPh2OPPh2)Pt(I)(PPh3)] (7) (44 VEC), which can be explained as the consequence of a PPh2O/PPh2 reductive coupling and a rearrangement of ligands in the molecule generating a Pt(ii),Pt(i),Pt(i) compound. All complexes were characterised in the solid state by XRD (only one of the isomers, in the cases of 4 and 6) and in solution by NMR spectroscopy.

Reactions of trinuclear platinum clusters with electrophiles: ionisation isomerism with [Pt3(μ2-I)(μ-PPh2)2(PPh3)3]I and [Pt3(μ-PPh2)2I2(PPh3)3]. Structures of [Pt3(μ2-Cl)(μ-PPh2)2(PPh3)3]PF6, [Pt3(μ-PPh2)2I2(PPh3)3] and of the Pt–Ag cluster [Pt3{μ3-AgBF4}(μ2-I)(μ-PPh2)2(PPh3)3]BF4

Reactions of the mixed-valence cluster [Pt₃(μ-PPh₂)₃Ph(PPh₃)₂] with various electrophiles have been investigated.
