Reactions of the chloro-bridged complexes, [M2Cl2(cod)2], M = Ir or Rh
, COD - cyclooctadiene, with CH2(PPh2)(P(Y)R2), Y = S or Se, R = Ph or
(t)Bu, provide a synthetic route to the cations, [M(cod){CH2(PPh2)(P(
Y)R2)-P,S}]+, which are isolated as fluoroborate or perchlorate salts.
Treatment of these products with sodium hydride results in facile dep
rotonation to the neutral complexes, [M(cod){CH(PPh2)(P(Y)Ph2)-P,S}],
and when Y = S, the neutral complexes are also accessible via reaction
s of [M2Cl2(cod)2] with Li[CH(PPh2)(P(S)R2)]. Reactions of the cations
, [M(cod)(CH2(PPh2)(P(S)(t)Bu2)-P,S}]+ with other ligands, Lg = (CO)2,
(CN(t)Bu)2, or bis(diphenylphosphino)methane (dppm), result in displa
cement of cod to form [M(Lg){CH2(PPh2)(P(S)(t)Bu2)-P,S}]+. Ruthenium c
omplexes of CH2(PPh2)(P(S)Ph2) are accessible via similar bridge cleav
age reactions using [Ru2Cl4L2], L = benzene or p-cymene. These complex
es are characterized by complete C-13, P-31, and Se-77 nuclear magneti
c resonance (NMR) studies and by four crystal structure determinations

n is completed by two double bonds of a cod ligand. In contrast, compl
ex 4 contains a monodentate P-bonded ligand.
