Three new bifunctional phosphinoamide ligands of the type Ph2PCH2C(O)N
HR (R = H, HDPA; Me, MDPA; Ph, PDPA) were prepared and characterized.
Their ruthenium(II) complexes prepared from two different precursors,
RuCl2(DMSO)4 and RuCl2(PPh3)3, are of similar composition and correspo
nd to the formula, [RuCl(L)2(P-O)2]Cl (L = DMSO/PPh3; phosphinoamide).
However, RuCl3(AsPh3)2(MeOH) reacts with the phosphinoamide to yield
a reduced product of the cis-RUCl2(P-O)2 type. The ligands and complex
es were characterized by mass, i.r. and n.m.r. spectroscopy. Possible
stereochemistries for the complexes are proposed.
