The synthesis and characterization of the new phosphino acetylenes (C6H5)2PC≡CCF3, (C6H5)2PC≡CC(CH3)3, (C6H5)2PC≡CP(C6F5)2, (C6F5)2PC≡CCH3, (C6F5)2PC≡CC6H5, (C6H5)2PC≡CP[N-(C2H5)2]2, the mixed arsine–phosphine (C6H5)2PC≡CAs(C6H5)2 and the arsino acetylene (C6H5)2AsC≡CCF3, are reported.
The binuclear diphosphine bridged monocarbonyl compound [Ni(CO)]2(DPPA)3 has been obtained by reaction of Ni(CO)4 with bis(diphenylphosphino)acetylene (DPPA) under mild conditions and by displacement of π-cyclopentadienyl groups from [π-C5H5Ni(CO)]2 at room temperature. The latter reaction suggests a possible route to other monocarbonyl nickel phosphine compounds not available by direct reaction of Ni(CO)4 with phosphines. The preparation and characterization of the binuclear compounds [Ni(CO)2]2(DPPA)2, [Ni(CO)3]2(DPPA), and (π-C5H5NiI)2(DPPA) are also described.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
