Abstract top

The title compound, (C44H38P2)[AuCl(C6F5)]2·2CH2Cl2, crystallizes with a twofold rotation axis through the central benzene ring in the bis-phosphonium dication. In the crystal, the dications and anions are ordered into columns running parallel to the c axis by contacts of the pro-ylidic CH2 groups with the Cl atom of one and an ortho-F atom of another anion. The space between the columns is occupied by CH2Cl2 solvent molecules.

Comment top

Only one half of the bisphosphonium dication in the title compound shown in Scheme 1 is unique, a twofold rotation axis passes through C1 and C4 of the central benzene ring (Figure 1). The pro-ylidic methylene group is engaged in two contacts directed towards the chloro ligand of one [AuCl(C6F5)]- complex and the other to the ortho-fluoro substituent of another anion related by a unit cell translation along the crystallographic c axis, Table 1 shows the geometric parameters. The dication thus forms contacts to two anion pairs related by a 2-fold operation. Each pair forms contacts to another dication forming a one-dimensional polar chain illustrated in Scheme 2. The dichloromethane solvent molecules fill channels that run parallel to the anion-cation columns. Cl2 of the CH2Cl2 molecules is engaged in a Cl···π contact with an electron-withdrawing C6F5 group [Cl—C6 (centroid) distance 3.364 Å)]

A crystal structure that contains the present dication has not been reported. The orientation of the triphenylphosphonium groups in opposite directions is most likely favoured due to steric requirements.

The present crystal structure is one of few that contains the [AuCl(C6F5)]- anion. One has been reported by Briggs et al. (1988) with the (phenylmethyl)triphenylphosphonium cation and another one was reported by Phillips et al. (2008) with the tetrabutylammonium cation. The Au—Cl and Au—C bond lengths are comparable to the values found in the present structure, the Au—Cl distance in the structure of Phillips et al. is longer at 2.3194 (16) Å. No structure incorporating the [AuCl(C6F5)]- anion exhibits aurophilic interactions. In the structure of Briggs et al., H···Cl interactions between the pro-ylidic methylene group and the anions also seem to be present, but no hydrogen atom coordinates are supplied for the respective carbon atoms. The [AuCl(C6F5)]- anion is a valuable starting material for the synthesis of complexes containing the AuC6F5 fragment (Usón et al., 1977).

Experimental top

The title compound was isolated during an attempted preparation of the bis-ylide complex with Au(C6F5) fragments. 1,3-Bis[(triphenylphosphonio)methyl]benzene(2+) dibromide was prepared according to a modified literature procedure (Friedrich et al., 1959; Horner et al., 1962). The bromide was exchanged by excess NaBF4 in 50% aqueous ethanol. The bis(tetrafluoroborate) was suspended in dry thf and cooled to -45 °C. The mixture turned dark brown upon addition of 1.6 M n-butyllithium, was subsequently stirred for 10 min and [Au(C6F5)(tht)] (tht = tetrahydrothiophene; Usón et al., 1989) in thf was added. The dry residue after removal of solvent was extracted with diethyl ether and dichloromethane. Crystals of the title compound were obtained after two recrystallizations from dichloromethane/hexane.

The chloride in the title compound originates from incomplete reaction during the preparation of [Au(C6F5)(tht)], in which [AuCl(tht)] is used. Traces of LiCl are thought to have been carried over to form the title compound which crystallizes preferentially. The Au1—Cl1 bond length of 2.3051 (18) Å excludes the presence of bromide from the phosphonium salt.

Refinement top

All H atoms were positioned geometrically (C—H = 0.94, and 0.98 Å for CH and CH2 groups, respectively) and constrained to ride on their parent atoms; Uiso(H) values were set at 1.2 times Ueq(C).

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
