Fig. 2.16 Synthesis and complexation of the bis(phosphine)s 13x .
12b-d were treated with an equimolar amount of n -butyllithium at -70
C in dry
tetrahydrofuran. Subsequently, 1,2-bis(dichlorophosphino)ethane was introduced.
After work-up, pure 1,2-bis(di(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)phosphino)ethane ( 13b ), 1,2-
bis(di(2-isopropylphenyl)phosphino)ethane ( 13 c ) and 1,2-bis(di(2,4,6-triisopropyl-
phenyl)phosphino)ethane ( 13d ) were obtained in moderate to high yields after re-
crystallization of the crude product (Fig. 2.16). Yields of more than 90% for 13b
compared to 19% obtained using the method of Chatt et al. [53] clearly underline
the big advantage of this straightforward procedure.
The reaction of 13x with bis(benzonitrile)dichloropalladium(II) [Bn 2 PdCl 2 ] and
monochloro(1,5-cyclooctadiene)monomethylpalladium(II) [(COD)PdClMe] yielded
the corresponding palladium(II) complexes 14x and 15 x (Fig. 2.16). Upon slow
evaporation of an acetonitrile solution, 14c and 14d gave crystals that were suit-
able for structure determination via single crystal X-ray diffraction (Fig. 2.17).
Compound 14b was crystallized by slow diffusion of pentane into a solution of
14b in tetrachloroethane.
