To a solution of 1 (100 mg, 0.193 mmol) dissolved in 10 mL of
CH2Cl2 were slowly added 61 mg (0.193 mmol) of (tht)AuCl dis-
solved in 5 mL of CH2Cl2. The transparent mixture was stirred at
room temperature for 4 h. Solvent was pumped off and the color-
less oil produced was crystallized from CH2Cl2/hexane (1.5) to give
white crystals of 3 (130 mg, 0.173 mmol, 90%).

To a solution of ligand 1 (120 mg, 0.231 mmol) in 15 mL of
CH2Cl2 were added 24 mg (0.115 mmol) of solid CuBr(Sme2). The
pale purple suspension formed was stirred overnight at room tem-
perature. After this time the mixture became a colorless solution.
Solvent evaporation to dryness produced a white solid which
was crystallized from CH2Cl2/hexane (1:5) generating transparent
crystals of complex 4 (112 mg, 0.095 mmol, 81%).

4.4. X-ray crystal structure determination of complexes 2, 3 and 4
All reactions were carried out under nitrogen atmosphere
using standard Schlenk techniques. Solvents were purified as fol-
low: hexane and tetrahydrofuran by distillation from sodium/
benzophenone ketyl; dichloromethane, chloroform and acetoni-
trile by distillation from P2O5. PdCl2(NCPh)2 and CuBr(SMe2)
Single crystals of complexes 2, 3 and 4, obtained as mentioned
above, were mounted on the tip of a glass fiber in a random orienta-
tion. Intensity data were collected on a Bruker Smart Apex diffrac-

empirical corrections, via -scans, were applied for absorption for
a
bidimensional CCD detector using
a
radiation (k = 0.71073 Å). Semi-
and (tht)AuCl (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) [16] were prepared fol-
lowing published procedures. Infrared spectra were recorded with
a Perkin–Elmer FT-IR Spectrum One spectrophotometer. NMR
spectra were recorded with a Bruker Avance 400 spectrometer.
1H NMR chemical shifts were referenced using the chemicals
shifts of residual solvent resonances, and 31P{1H}NMR chemical
shifts were referenced to 85% H3PO4 as external standard. The
mass spectrum of 3 was obtained on a Thermo-Finnigan MAT
900XP, at the Facultad de Ciencias Químicas y Farmacéuticas,
Universidad de Chile.

complexes 2 and 3, and face indexing absorption correction was ap-
plied to complex 4. The diffraction frames were integrated using the
SAINT package [31] and corrected for absorption with XPREP in SHELXTL-PC
[32] and SADABS [33]. The structures were solved using XS in SHELXTL-PC
[32] by direct methods and completed (non-H atoms) by difference
Fourier techniques. Refinement was performed by the full-matrix
least-squares method based on F2. All non-hydrogen atoms were
anisotropically refined. Hydrogen atoms were placed in their calcu-
lated positions, assigned fixed isotropic thermal parameters and al-
lowed to ride on their respective parent atoms. A summary of the
data collectionand structure refinement parameters is given in Table
1. ORTEP plots of complexes 2, 3 and 4 with displacement ellipsoids
at the 30% probability level were generated with XP in SHELXTL-PC [32].

in 15 mL of chloroform were added 44 mg (0.115 mmol) of solid
PdCl2(NCPh)2 and the mixture was refluxed for 4 h. After cooling
at room temperature a red precipitate was formed, this was filtered
out and washed with chloroform. The elemental analysis of this
material reveals a dimeric nature (Anal. Calc. for [C20H14O3PCl2-

tallization from acetonitrile/diethylether (1:3) yielded orange-red
microcrystals (suitable for analysis of X-ray diffraction) of 2
(62 mg, 0,084 mmol, 73%).
