A novel C3-symmetric tetradentate tripodal ligand with phosphorus as coordinating atoms has been synthesized in good yields. Its coordination ability through the four phosphorus atoms, three at the arms and one at the bridging position, is shown by formation of rigid Pd(II) and Rh(I) complexes. These C3-iymmetric complexes are intrinsically chiral; experimental evidence for their configurational stability is included.

The high-yielding synthesis and detailed characterization of two well-defined, linkage isomeric tripodal, tetradentate allphosphorus ligands 1-3 Is described. Coordination to Cul resulted in formation of complexes 4-6, for which the molecular structures indicate overall tridentate coordination to the copper atom in the solid state, with one dangling peripheral phosphine. The solution studies suggest fast exchange between the three phosphine side-arms. For these new Cul complexes, preliminary catalytic activity In the cyclopropanation of styrene with ethyldiazoacetate (EDA) is disclosed. The anticipated well-defined tetradentate coordination in a C 3-symmetric fashion was achieved with Rhl and lr l, leading to the overall five-coordinated complexes 7-12. Complex 11 has the norbornadiene (nbd) ligand coordinated in an unprecedented monodentate 2,3-η2 mode to Rh. Furthermore, unexpected but very interesting redox-chemistry and reactivity was displayed by the Rh(Cl)-complexes 7 and 8. Oxidation resulted In the formation of stable Rhll metalloradicals [7]PF6 and [8]PF6 that were characterized by X-ray crystallography, magnetic susceptibility measurements, cyclic voltammetry, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. Subsequent redox-reactivity of these metalloradicals toward molecular hydrogen is described, resulting in the formation of Rhlll hydride compounds.
