Article abstract of DOI:10.1039/DT9870000969

Reaction of the phosphinoethylsilanes Ph2PCH2CH2SiR1R2H (R1=R2= Me, R2=Ph) with (M=Ru or Os) at 140 deg C affords the octahedral complexes 1R2)2(CO)2> for which i.r. and n.m.r. data suggest a common structure with trans CO groups.The Ru complex in which R1=R2=Me is chemically inert, failing to undergo carbonyl displacement or to show evidence for either nucleophilic or electrophilic attack on coordinated CO characteristic which can be correlated with the low energy ofν(CO) (ca. 1920 cm-1) and which may result from inductive electron release from Si onto Ru>, but reacting in boiling CCl4 or with HCl gas or I2 with cleavage of both Ru-Si bonds.The crystal and molecular structure of the Os complex in which R1=R2=Me has been determined by X-ray diffraction, showing that the chelate ligands adopt a cis relationship in the equatorial plane; in this structure two conformers coexist in the crystal, distinguished by the arrangement of the chelate ligand methylene backbones which are either parallel or skew with respect to one another.The crystals are triclinic, space group P1, with a= 12.598(3), b= 17.228(4), c= 18.501(4)Angstroem, α= 119.96(2), β= 101.39(2), γ= 90.36(1)deg, and Z= 4.Mean M-Si and M-P distances are ca. 2.48 and 2.38 Angstroem respectively, the latter conspicuously long compared with related compounds and consistent with the strongly trans-influencing behaviour of Si.
