    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.

    Synthesis and activity of -Fe2O3 nanoparticles in the catalytic reduction of halonitroarenes under sustainable conditions

    Abstract. The catalytic reduction of nitroarenes towards anilines is an important reaction from both academic and industrial points of view, being the resulting products important intermediates to produce dyes, agrochemicals, pigments, and pharmaceuticals. In addition, removal of nitroarene pollutants from water by reducing them into anilines is a valuable method to purify contaminated matrices. Such reductive reactions are frequently carried out by using noble metal catalysts [1], which are usually very active and recyclable in some cases. Recently, the use of earth abundant metal catalysts has gained great interest especially for economic reasons, as these materials are generally cheap and easy to be reached [2]. In this framework, iron oxides catalysts are very attractive because they are cheap and not toxic. Herein, we report on the synthesis of α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) of size ranging from 50 to 80 nm starting from a porous organic polymer (POP) containing Fe(III) sites, which was in turn annealed at 400°C. The obtained NPs were characterized by SEM-EDX, XRPD, IR and TXRF and were employed as active and recyclable catalysts in the reduction of p-bromonitrobenzene into p-bromo-aniline, using hydrazine hydrate in ethanol, taken as the model reaction.
