group does not appear (1580–1600 cm−1). Instead, three bands
of medium or strong intensity are observed between 1462–1349
also useful for characterization. While most showed molecular
ions, these were normally weak. All of the complexes show
molecular ion peaks and have quite distinctive fragmentation
patterns.
cm−1 [21] η3-Allyl group stretching frequencies for the com-
.
plexes are in good accord with the literature assignment.[22]
The FT-IR spectra data for the complexes show a decrease
in ν(P=S) on coordination. In the free ligand the IR active REFERENCES
mode ν(P=S) is at 551 cm−1 for tetramethyldiphosphine disul-
fide.[23] On cis-chelate coordination two bands are observed at
∼582 cm−1 νsym(P=S) and ∼544 cm−1 νas(P=S), e.g., in [(η3-
CH2CMeCH2)Pd(tmps)]Cl. There is no IR-active ν(P-P) band
in C2h symmetry (trans conformation) of the free ligand. The
band observed in the 465–495 cm−1 region may be due to ν(P-P)
stretching vibrations that becomes IR-active upon cis-chelation
of the ligands. The symmetric and antisymmetric P=S stretch-
ing vibrations are both IR-active in the coordinated ligands. Both
vibrations show the expected shift to lower frequency on coor-
dination for the complexes. The IR spectroscopic results are in
accord with a cis-chelating coordination of the tetraalkyldiphos-
phine disulfide ligands for all the complexes.

1H-NMR data for compounds are presented in Table 3. The
1H-NMR spectra of the complexes exhibit only one set of sin-
glet resonances for Hsyn, Hanti, and Mecentral protons of the allyl
group, with the expected intensity ratio of 2:2:3. There is no
spin–spin coupling; the peaks are all singlets, being shifted
slightly upfield of the corresponding allyl protons of [(η3-
CH2CMeCH2)Pd(µ-Cl)]2.[24] Hanti protons resonate at higher
field than the syn analogues, since they are nearer to the metal
and are consequently more shielded.

The 31P{ H}-NMR spectra of complexes show one signal
corresponding to the phosphorus atoms of the coordinated lig-
ands. The δP values of the coordinated ligands are higher than
those of free ligands when the ligands are coordinated in a cis-
chelating mode. Only one signal is observed, in accord with the
symmetry of the complexes.[25]
The mass spectral data of the complexes are given in Table 4.
The mass spectra of the complexes exhibit parent ions and so are
