Abstract
- The 1∶2 complexes of silver(I) nitrate with 1,2-bis(di-n-pyridylphosphino)ethane (dnpype) for n = 2, 3 and 4 have been synthesized and solution properties characterized by NMR spectroscopy, including variable-temperature one-dimensional <SUP>31</SUP>P-{<SUP>1</SUP>H}, two-dimensional [<SUP>31</SUP>P&z.sbd6;<SUP>31</SUP>P] COSY and [<SUP>31</SUP>P&z.sbd6;<SUP>109</SUP>Ag] HMQC NMR experiments. The 3-pyridyl (d3pype) and 4-pyridyl (d4pype) complexes exist as bis-chelated monomeric [Ag(d3pype)<SUB>2</SUB>]<SUP>+</SUP> and [Ag(d4pype)<SUB>2</SUB>]<SUP>+</SUP> while the 2-pyridyl (d2pype) complex forms an equilibrium mixture of monomeric [Ag(d2pype)<SUB>2</SUB>]<SUP>+</SUP>, dimeric [{Ag(d2pype)<SUB>2</SUB>}<SUB>2</SUB>]<SUP>2+</SUP> and trimeric [{Ag(d2pype)<SUB>2</SUB>}<SUB>3</SUB>]<SUP>3+</SUP> species in which the d2pype ligands co-ordinate in both bridging and chelated modes via the phosphorus atoms. The relative percentages of the species present are dependent on both temperature and solvent. Crystals of the 2-pyridyl complex obtained from CH<SUB>2</SUB>Cl<SUB>2</SUB>Et<SUB>2</SUB>O solution have been shown by crystal structure determination to be the dimer [{Ag(d2pype)(μ-d2pype)}<SUB>2</SUB>][NO<SUB>3</SUB>]<SUB>2</SUB>·2CH<SUB>2</SUB>Cl<SUB>2</SUB>. Each silver ion is co-ordinated by one chelated and two bridging d2pype ligands forming a ten-membered ring in a double boat conformation. The pyridyl nitrogen atoms do not co-ordinate to the silver. The differences in solution behaviour of the three systems and the potential significance of these complexes to the antitumour properties of chelated 1∶2 silver(I) diphosphine complexes are discussed.
