Abstract
- The experimental and computational characterization of a series of dialkylterphenyl phosphines, PR <subscript>2</subscript> Ar' is described. The new P-donors comprise five compounds of general formula PR <subscript>2</subscript> Ar Dtbp 2 (R=Me, Et, iPr, c-C <subscript>5</subscript> H <subscript>9</subscript> and c-C <subscript>6</subscript> H <subscript>11</subscript> ); Ar Dtbp 2 = 2,6-C <subscript>6</subscript> H <subscript>3</subscript> -(3,5-C <subscript>6</subscript> H <subscript>3</subscript> -(CMe <subscript>3</subscript> ) <subscript>2</subscript> ) <subscript>2</subscript> ), and another five PR <subscript>2</subscript> Ar' phosphines containing the bulky alkyl groups iPr, c-C <subscript>5</subscript> H <subscript>9</subscript> or c-C <subscript>6</subscript> H <subscript>11</subscript> , in combination with Ar'=Ar Xyl 2 , Ar Xyl ' 2 , or Ar Ph 2 (L1-L10). Steric and electronic parameters have been determined computationally and from IR and X-ray data obtained for the phosphines and for some derivatives, including tricarbonyl and dicarbonyl nickel complexes, Ni(CO) <subscript>3</subscript> (PR <subscript>2</subscript> Ar') and Ni(CO) <subscript>2</subscript> (PR <subscript>2</subscript> Ar'). In the solid state, the free phosphines PR <subscript>2</subscript> Ar' adopt one of the three possible structures formally related by rotation around the C <subscript>ipso</subscript> -P bond. Details on their relative energies and on the influence of the free phosphine structure on its coordination chemistry towards Ni(CO) <subscript>n</subscript> (n = 2, 3) fragments has been obtained by experimental and computational methods.<br /> (© 2019 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
