A series of multinuclear homo- and heterometallic complexes with bridging tellurolato ligands derived from [Cp∗Ir(CO)(TeTol)2] (Cp∗= η5-C5Me5, Tol =p-tolyl)

Reactions of Schiff Base‐Substituted Diselenides and ‐tellurides with Ni(II), Pd(II) and Pt(II) Phosphine Complexes

“…For most of the structural parameters, a linear dependence with the size of the chalcogen or the size of the metal is observed along the series [M(L S )(PPh 3 )] – [M(L Se )(PPh 3 )] – [M(L Te )(PPh 3 )]. The Pd1–Te1 and Pt1–Te1 bonds of 2.4825(2) and 2.502(1) Å are similar to the shortest bond lengths reported in previous studies of palladium [ 21,25–29,34,36–38 ] and platinum [ 39–52 ] phenyltellurolato complexes. Remarkably and probably as a result of the strain in the five‐membered Te1–Ni1–N1 chelate ring, the Ni1–Te1 bond length in [Ni(L Te )(PPh 3 )] is only 2.4050(5) Å.…”

“…Selected bond lengths [Å] and angles (°) in the dichalcogenides {HL Y } 2 [30] and their nickel, palladium and platinum complexes [M(L Y )(PPh 3 )] (Y = Se, Te). [21,[25][26][27][28][29]34,[36][37][38] and platinum [39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49][50][51][52] [53] Ni(TeMes)Cp(PEt 3 ), [54] [W(CO) 5 -μ-(TePh)NiCp(PPh 3 )] [55] and [57] [(NiCpiPr 4 ) 2 -μ-( Te) 2 ] (2.44-2.45 Å), [58] [CpFe(C 5 H 4 )-Te(I) 2 -Ni(NHC)Cp] (2.4407(8) Å) [59] and (μ 4 -telluro)-hexakis(μ 3 -telluro)bis(μ 2 -bis(diphenylphosphino)methane)-bis(η 5 -tert-butylcyclopentadienyl)-pentanickeldiniobium (2.436(5) Å) [60] show the overall shortest Ni-Te bond lengths. (m/z = 538.0818) can be observed.…”

Emerging trends in organotellurolate chemistry derived from platinoids

“…{PtTol(PPh 3 )}](Fig. 16), which was formed by the facile inversion of the Pd(0) center in to a Te-Tol bond in the complex [CpIr(CO)(m-Te)(m-TeTol){PtTol(PPh 3 )}] 126,157. Similarly, [Pt(TeR) 2 (dppe)] (R ¼ Ph, Fc) upon reaction with a rhenium carbonyl cluster yielded heterometallic tellurolato bridged complexes [(dppe)Pt(m-TeR) 2 ReCl(CO) 3 ] (R ¼ Ph, Fc) 158,159.…”
