    We have recently described the synthesis of the complex [(PHCy2)Pt1(m-PCy2){k2P,O-m-P(O)Cy2}Pt2(PHCy2)] (Pt-Pt) (1), the first unsymmetrical phosphinito bridged Pt(I) species.[1] The phosphinito bridge differentiates the charge distributions on the two platinum atoms as confirmed by NMR spectroscopy (dPt(1) = -4798 ppm, dPt(2) = -5207 ppm) and DFT studies. Complex 1 shows a rich chemistry as it reacts with nucleophiles [PHCy2, PCy3, P(S)HCy2],[2] protic species HX [P(OH)Cy2, PhSH, HF, HCl, HBr, HI, HBF4],[3, 4] and small molecules such as H2.[5] Recently, we started investigations on the reactivity of complex 1 towards Au and Ag based electrophiles. In this communication, it will be shown that, differently from the isolobal H+ (which attacks the phosphinito oxygen and migrates onto the Pt-Pt bond),3 the [Ag(PPh3)]+ electrophile attacks complex 1 selectively to the Pt2-mP bond to afford the cationic cluster [(PHCy2)Pt1(m-PCy2){k2P,O-m-P(O)Cy2}Pt2{m- -Ag(PPh3)}(PHCy2)]+ (Pt–Pt) (2+) in which the [Ag(PPh3)]+ moiety bridges the mP-Pt2 bond. Analogous reactivity is observed also when phosphane free electrophiles such as AgOTf, AgBF4, AgClO4 and AgCl are used. Moreover, the reactivity of 1 towards Au(I) electrophiles such as AuCl and [Au(PPh3)Cl] was dependent on the reagent and on the experimental conditions. references: 1.

    Activation of small molecules by an amphiphilic phosphinito bridged Pt(I)-Pt(I) complex

    The complex [(PHCy2)Pt(μ-PCy2){κ2P,O-μ-P(O)Cy2}Pt(PHCy2)](Pt-Pt) (1) constitutes a rare example of unsymmetrical phosphinito diplatinum species that, due to the simultaneous presence of a soft binding atom (P) linked to a hard one (O), undergoes smooth reaction with nucleophiles, electrophiles, dihydrogen and terminal alkynes. The tested nucleophiles were PHCy2, PCy3, P(S)HCy2 and CO, whereas the investigated electrophiles were several Brønsted acids as well as metal based species (AuCl, Au(PPh3)Cl, AgX, X = OTf, BF4, ClO4, Cl, (PPh3)OTf). The alkynes used in reaction with 1 were (trimethylsilyl)acetylene and phenylacetylene. In all cases the skeletal framework was preserved and in one case (reaction with diluted HF) dimerization led to a tetranuclear species

    The reactivity of Ni(II)-tertiary phosphine complexes towards alkoxides under carbon monoxide: methoxo-carbonyl complexes, synthesis and reactivity

    No full text
    The reactivity of some Ni(II)-tertiary phosphine complexes, NiX2L2 (X=Cl, Br, I; L=tertiary alkylphosphine), towards the RONa (R=Me, Et, Ph, PhCH2) alkoxides under carbon monoxide, has been studied. Whereas their reactions with methoxide yield trans-NiXL2COOCH3 methoxo-carbonyl complexes, those with the other alkoxides lead to the formation of organic and inorganic products such as aldehydes, hydrocarbons, CO2 or derivatives, Ni(II) and Ni(0) compounds. This behaviour could be explained by assuming that the reactions lead to the formation of unstable NiXL2(OR) alkoxo complexes, which can either react with CO to yield the alkoxo-carbonyls NiXL2COOR, or else decompose to Ni compounds and organic products. The alkoxo complexes have not been isolated but in some cases spectroscopic evidence of their formation has been obtained. Furthermore, we have studied the reactivity of methoxo-carbonyl complexes towards amines and alkoxides: under CO they are not very reactive either in mild or in drastic conditions, and above all yield compounds which derive from decarbonylative and decarboxylative decomposition

    Uncovering Intramolecular π‐Type Hydrogen Bonds in Solution by NMR Spectroscopy and DFT Calculations

    Reaction between the phosphinito bridged diplatinum species [(PHCy2 )Pt(μ-PCy2 )κ(2) P,O-μ-P(O)Cy2 Pt(PHCy2 )](Pt-Pt) (1), and (trimethylsilyl)acetylene at 273 K affords the σ-acetylide complex [(PHCy2 )(η(1) -Me3 SiC≡C)Pt(μ-PCy2 )Pt(PHCy2 )κP-P(OH)Cy2 ](Pt-Pt) (2) featuring an intramolecular π-type hydrogen bond. Scalar and dipolar couplings involving the POH proton were detected by 2D NMR experiments. Relativistic DFT calculations of the geometry, relative energy, and NMR properties of model systems of 2 confirmed the structural assignment and allowed the energy of the π-type hydrogen bond to be estimated (ca. 22 kJ mol(-1) )

    This paper deals with the extension and the extraordinary scientific value of the works written by a great Master in Criminal Law, such as Mario Romano. The Author briefly presents some of the most relevant contributions given by Professor Mario Romano to the Criminal Science, first of all his "Commentario sistematico del codice penale" (Systematic Commentary on the penal code), a unique work. Finally, the paper talks about some topics which have been developed inside the work "Studi in onore di Mario Romano" (Studies in Honour of Mario Romano)

    Synthesis of Heterodimetallic Complexes by Reaction of a Terminal Phosphido Pt Complex with Metal Based Nucleophiles and Electrophiles

    No full text
    The complex trans-[PtCl(PCy2)(PHCy2)2] (1) possesses a terminal phosphanido group (PCy2) and a chloride ligand, which render it a good candidate for the synthesis of phosphanido- bridged heterodimetallic species (PHCy2)2Pt(μ- PCy2)M–L by reaction either with carbonyl metalates, as metal-based nucleophiles, or with metal-based electrophiles. The heterodinuclear complexes [(PHCy2)2Pt(μ-PCy2)Co- (CO)3](Pt–Co) (2), [(PHCy2)2Pt(μ-PCy2)Mo(CO)2Cp](Pt–Mo) (3), and [(PHCy2)2Pt(μ-PCy2)W(CO)2Cp](Pt–W) (4) are obtained by reaction of 1 with the carbonyl metalates Na[Co- (CO)4], Na[Mo(CO)3Cp] and Na[W(CO)3Cp], respectively. Although 2 is reluctant to react with carbon monoxide, 3 and 4 are promptly carbonylated under ambient conditions to afford mixtures of the cis and trans isomers of [(PHCy2)(CO)- Pt(μ-PCy2)M(CO)2Cp] (M = Mo or W), which interconvert through dissociation/reassociation of the CO ligand coordinated to the Pt centre. The reaction of 1 with AuCl(PPh3) leads to the formation of the trinuclear Pt2Au complexes cisand trans-[{Cl(PHCy2)2Pt(μ-PCy2)}2Au]Cl (cis- and trans- [8]Cl), in which a Au atom bridges two molecules of 1 through the originally terminal phosphanide ligands
