Nr. Champness et al., SYNTHESIS OF A POLYMER-SUPPORTED O-PHENYLENE(DIPHOSPHINE) AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SOME METAL-COMPLEXES, Journal of organometallic chemistry, 465(1-2), 1994, pp. 275-281
The synthesis is described of the polymer-supported diphosphine, PolPP
, in which an o-C6H3(PPh(2))(2) unit is linked via a -CH2O group in th
e 4-position of the benzene ring to a Merrifield resin. The preparatio
ns of the complexes (PolPP)NiCl2, (PolPP)PtCl2, (PolPP>Rh(PPh(3))Cl an
d (PolPP)Ru(PPh(3))Cl-2 and related model compounds are reported, and
their characterization by UV-visibIe spectroscopy and metal edge EXAFS
is described.
