The bidentate P,N hybrid ligand 1 allows access for the first time to novel cationic phosphinine-based RhIII and IrIII complexes, broadening significantly the scope of low-coordinate aromatic phosphorus heterocycles for potential applications. The coordination chemistry of 1 towards RhIII and IrIII was investigated and compared with the analogous 2,2-bipyridine derivative, 2-(2-pyridyl)-4,6-diphenylpyridine (2), which showed significant differences. The molecular structures of [RhCl(Cp )(1)]Cl and [IrCl(Cp)(1)]Cl (Cp=pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) were determined by means of X-ray diffraction and confirm the mononuclear nature of the λ3-phosphinine-RhIII and IrIII complexes. In contrast, a different reactivity and coordination behavior was found for the nitrogen analogue 2, especially towards RhIII as a bimetallic ion pair [RhCl(Cp)(2)]+[RhCl3(Cp)]- is formed rather than a mononuclear coordination compound. [RhCl(Cp)(1)]Cl and [IrCl(Cp)(1)]Cl react with water regio- and diastereoselectively at the external Pi?£C double bond, leading exclusively to the anti-addition products [MCl(Cp)(1H×OH)]Cl as confirmed by X-ray crystal-structure determination.
