RESUMO
The monohapto neutral 2-(diphenylphosphino)aniline (PNH(2)) complexes [Au(C(6)F(5))(2)X(PNH(2))] (X = C(6)F(5) (1), Cl (2)) have been obtained from [Au(C(6)F(5))(3)(tht)] or [Au(C(6)F(5))(2)(micro-Cl)](2) and PNH(2), and the cationic [Au(C(6)F(5))(2)(PNH(2))]ClO(4) (3) has been similarly prepared from [Au(C(6)F(5))(2)(OEt(2))(2)]ClO(4) and PNH(2) or from 2 and AgClO(4). The neutral amido complex [Au(C(6)F(5))(2)(PNH)] (4) can be obtained by deprotonation of 3 with PPN(acac) (acac = acetylacetonate) or by treatment of the chloro complex 2 with Tl(acac). It reacts with [Ag(OClO(3))(PPh(3))] or [Au(OClO(3))(PPh(3))] to give the dinuclear species [Au(C(6)F(5))(2)[PNH(MPPh(3))]]ClO(4) (M = Ag (5), Au (6)). The latter can also be obtained by reaction of equimolar amounts of 3 and [Au(acac)(PPh(3))]; when the molar ratio of the same reagents is 1:2, the trinuclear cationic complex [Au(C(6)F(5))(2)[PN(AuPPh(3))(2)]]ClO(4) (7) is obtained. The crystal structures of complexes 2-4 and 7 have been established by X-ray crystallography; the last-mentioned displays an unusual Au(I)-Au(III) interaction.
RESUMO
In this paper we describe the synthesis and reactivity of the diphenylphosphine derivatives [Au(C6F5)(PPh2H)] and trans-[Au(C6F5)2(PPh2H)2]ClO4. Reactions of the latter or the neutral [Au(C6F5)3(PPh2H)] with the appropriate Group 11 metal reagents (M = Au, Ag, Cu) in the presence of acetylacetonate afford a series of novel Au(III)-M phosphido-bridged complexes, which have been scarcely represented to date. The crystal structure of the tetranuclear [(Au(C6F5)2(mu-PPh2)2Ag)2] and the dinuclear [Au(C6F5)3(mu-PPh2)M(PPh3)] (M = Au,Ag) complexes were established by X-ray diffraction methods. The synthesis and deprotonating activity of the anionic gold(III) complex PPN[Au(C6F5)3(acac)] (PNN = [N(PPh3)2]+) was studied.
