2-(Diphenylphosphinoyl)propanoic acid (Hdpop) has been prepared by a simple one-step procedure. The anion behaves as a versatile bidentate ligand, which co-ordinates to cations of VIII, CrIII and FeIII to give octahedral tris(chelate) complexes of the type M(dpop)3, to SnIV to give SnR3(dpop) and SnR2(dpop)2 (R = Me or Ph), and to MoVI to give cis-[MoO2(dpop)2]. The derivative Tl(dpop), on the other hand, appears to be coordinated through the carboxylate group only. The α-hydrogen of the dpop ligands of the molybdenum and thallium complexes undergo a slow and reversible hydrogen-deuterium exchange reaction with deuterio-methanol, and the mechanism of this process is discussed. The structure of V(dpop)3·H2O·CH2Cl2, a rare example of a tris(dioxygen) chelate complex of vanadium(III), has been determined by single-crystal X-ray methods. There are two pairs of optical antipodes, Λ(R,R,R) and Δ(S,S,S), in the unit cell. The arrangement of donors about the metal is facial, with all the six-membered chelate rings adopting boat conformations. All the O-V-O bond angles are close to 90°, and the V-O(P) bond lengths averaging 2.023(2) A are slightly longer than those of V-O(C) at 1.979(2) A.
