- A bis(ortho-amine)aryl-gold(I) compound as an efficient, nontoxic, arylating reagent
-
A novel strategy for the synthesis of bis(ortho-amine)chelated monoanionic bisaminoaryl-metal complexes is presented. This method constitutes the exchange of a monoanionic, NCN-pincer ligand (NCN = [C6H3(CH2NMe2)2-2,6] -) between a stable arylgold(I) phosphine, [Au(η1-C-NCN)(PPh3)] (2), and a transition metal halide. This transmetalation results in the quantitative formation of[M(NCN)] organometallic compounds (M = AuIII, NiII, PdII, PtII, TiIV, and FeIII) and [AuCl(PPh3)] as the only coproduct that can be recovered.

- Ortho-chelated arylrhodium(I) complexes. X-ray structure of RhI[C6H3(CH2NMe2) 2-o,o′-C,N ](COD)
-
The reaction of Lin[C6H3(CH2NMe 2)-o-R-o′]n with [RhCl(diene)]2 yields the ortho-chelated arylrhodium(I) complexes Rh[C6H3(CH2NMe 2)-o-R-o′](diene) (R = CH2NMe2, diene = COD (1a) or NBD (1b); diene = COD, R = Me (2) or H (3)). The solid-state structure of 1a was determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. C20H31N2Rh: triclinic, space group P1, with lattice parameters a = 10.169 (1) ?, b = 13.036 (1) ?, c = 14.688 (2) ?, α = 79.54 (1)°, β = 77.04 (1)°, γ = 79.53°; V = 1845.6 (4) ?3, Z = 4; D(calcd) = 1.448 g cm-3. Refinement with 4696 observed reflections converged at R = 0.0395. The structure of 1a consists of a rhodium(I) center that has a square-planar coordination comprising the two double bonds of COD and a C atom and one of the N atoms of the monoanionic aryl ligand. In solution compounds 1 and 2 exhibit dynamic behavior which involves a reversible dissociation of the Rh-N bond and rotation of the aryl moiety around Rh-C. This process, which generates a highly unsaturated T-shaped 14 electron species, is accompanied by the relief of steric repulsions within the complex. Complex 1 reacts with a range of electrophilic reagents leading to Rh-C bond breakage (HX, X = acac, Cl, Br, OAc, OH, OMe, L-alanyl; MXnLm, SnMe2Br2, NiBr2(PBu3)2, ZrCl4, PdCl2(NCPh)2, HgCl2, PtBr2(COD), and [IrCl(COD)]2). A redox reaction of 1 with AgX (X = OAc, NO3) leads to the formation of RhIIIX2[C6H3(CH2NMe 2)2-o,o′](H2O).
