Journal ArticleDOI

Insertion reactions of the [RhCl(PPh3)2] fragment into a phosphirene ring, and carbonylation of the resulting rhodium(III) complex. Crystal and molecular structures of [RhCl(PPhCPhCPh)(PPh3)2], [RhCl(PPhCPhCPhCO)(PPh3)2] and the novel dimeric complex [{RhCl(PPhCPhCPhCO)(PPh3)}2]

TL;DR: The first example of insertion of the d8 RhI fragment [RhCl(PPh3)2] into a phosphirene ring system results in a five-coordinate RhIII complex, which undergoes insertion of carbon monoxide to give either monomeric or dimeric structures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel intramolecular hydrogen-atom transfer in an η4-ligated cycloocta-1,5-diene η-1,2,4-triphosphole ruthenium(0) complex. Synthesis, crystal and molecular structures of [Ru(η4-C8H12){η-P3C2But2[CH(SiMe3)2]}] and [Ru(η5-C8H11){η-P3C2But2H[CH(SiMe3)2]}]

TL;DR: The first known ruthenium(0) complex of a 1,2,4-triphosphole was reported in this article, which undergoes a novel hydrogen migration reaction from the η4-cycloocta-1,5-diene coligand on heating.
Journal ArticleDOI

Facile insertion and halogen migration reactions of the hexaphosphapentaprismane cage P6C4tBu4 with zerovalent and divalent platinum complexes.

TL;DR: The hexaphosphapentaprismane P(6)C(4)(t)Bu(4) undergoes specific insertion of the zerovalent platinum fragment into the unique P-P bond between the 5-membered rings to afford [Pt(PPh(3)))(2)P( 6)C (4)( t) Bu(4)] and results in both insertion and chlorine migration reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis and 31P NMR spectra of some diene complexes of iron(O) and ruthenium(O) containing phosphine ligands

TL;DR: In this paper, the preparation of the cyclohexadiene complexes of zerovalent iron and ruthenium is described and some variable temperature 31 P NMR studies are reported.
