“…The two Cl ligands on the title complex adopt a cis-conformation while the distorted square planar geometry is illustrated by a 93.83(2)°bond angle formed by the P-Pd-P bonds. The Pd-P and Pd-Cl distances are 2.2339(6) Å (Pd1-P2), 2.2719(6) Å (Pd1-P1), 2.3346(6) Å (Pd1-Cl2) and 2.3642(6) Å (Pd1-Cl1), respectively, and are comparable to other similar compounds found in literature [9,[19][20][21][22][23][24]. The crystal structure is further stabilized by an intermolecular C-H…”

“…Di-nuclear POPd1-tolyl is ligated by PA-Ph (Ph 2 (HO)P:), with two smaller phenyl groups, 33 while mononuclear POPd-tBu, 34 di-nuclear POPd1-tBu, and POPd2-tBu 14a , 34 are associated with bulky t Bu 2 P-OH (PA-tBu) ligands. The latter precatalysts have previously been demonstrated to be effective precatalysts for Suzuki reactions of aryl chlorides.…”
Di(1-adamantyl)phosphine
oxide (SPO-Ad: Ad
2
P(V)(=O)H),
a stable tautomer of di(1-adamantyl)phosphinous acid (PA-Ad: Ad
2
P(III)-OH), was employed to synthesize two new PA-Ad-coordinated
complexes, POPd-Ad and POPd2-Ad. POPd-Ad was easily transformed from
POPd2-Ad in acetonitrile, and the [M – H]
−
ion of the deprotonated POPd-Ad was observed in the electrospray
ionization-mass spectrum of POPd2-Ad. Both complexes are effective
precatalysts for the Suzuki reaction of aryl chlorides. The reduction
of Pd(II) in POPd-Ad and POPd2-Ad by arylboronic acid was examined,
and the ideal Pd-to-PA ratio in the Suzuki reaction was found to be
1:1. The effect of temperature on the catalytic yields was studied
to examine the possible ligation state of the active species and the
dimer-to-monomer process of POPd2-Ad. Mononuclear and mono-ligated
Pd species was assumed to be catalytically active. The electronic
and steric effects of PA-Ad were slightly better than those reported
for PA-tBu (
t
Bu
2
P(III)-OH).
Density functional theory calculations were performed to evaluate
the formation of mono-ligated and mononuclear Pd species from POPd-Ad
and POPd2-Ad. Furthermore, the reaction time and catalyst loading
could be reduced for the reported POPd1-tBu precatalyst using the
optimized reaction conditions for POPd-Ad. The complexes synthesized
in this extensive study will complement the existing SPO-coordinated
POPd series of precatalysts.
In this study, reactions of (PPh2)2NCH2CH2N(PPh2)2 (L1) and {(PPh2)2NCH2CH2}3N (L2) with [RuII(acac)2(CH3CN)2] led to the production of new dinuclear complex [Ru(acac)2]2(L1) (1) and trinuclear complex [Ru(acac)2]3(L2) (2). Complex 1 and 2 are excellent candidates for the role of catalyst precursors in the transfer hydrogenation (TH) of acetophenone and its derivatives. Compared to complex (1), the trinuclear complex (2) is an exceptional catalyst, producing the corresponding alcohols in 98–99% yields in 20 minutes at 80 oC (TOF≤300 h-1) for the TH process. A comparison of the catalytic properties of the complexes is also briefly discussed. Complex structures have also been characterized by combining nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and elemental analysis.
