The mol­ecular structures of two novel cobalt amino­diphosphine (PNP) com­plexes (1 and 2) are reported, namely, bis­[bis­(di­phenyl­phosphan­yl)(pent­yl)amine-κ2P,P′]chlorido­cobalt(III) di-μ-chlorido-bis­[di­chlorido­cobalt(II)], [CoCl(C29H31NP2)2][Co2Cl6], and bis­[bis­(di­phenyl­phosphan­yl)(propan-2-yl)amine-κ2P,P′]chlorido­cobalt(III) di-μ-chlorido-bis­[di­chlorido­cobalt(II)], [CoCl(C27H27NP2)2][Co2Cl6], featuring variation in the N-atom substituent, i.e. n-pentyl in com­plex 1 and isopropyl in com­plex 2. The asymmetric unit of com­plex 1 contains a five-coordinated cationic [CoCl{κ2-P,P-(N)-C5H11}2]2+ species and a [Co2(μ2-Cl)2Cl4]2− anion, while com­plex 2 includes a five-coordinated cation [CoCl{κ2-P,P-(N)-C3H7}2], half a [Co2(μ2-Cl)2Cl4]2− anion, and disordered diethyl ether and di­chloro­methane solvent mol­ecules. The impact of ligand-induced strain, particularly due to the small bite angles of the PNP amino­diphosphine ligands, was examined in the context of geometric constraints and their influence on stability and reactivity. A Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) survey, along with a noncovalent inter­action (NCI) analysis of the analogous [TMCln(PNP)2] (where TM = transition metal and n = 1 or 2) core, revealed an inverse correlation between P—TM—P bite angles and N⋯TM contact distances. This correlation is attributed to the influence of the van der Waals radius of the metal: smaller metals allow wider bite angles and stronger N⋯TM contacts, whereas larger metals favour narrower bite angles and longer N⋯TM distances. NCI analysis indicated significant steric repulsion at the TM⋯N contacts, reflecting strain imposed by ligand geometry. A com­parison of sign(λ2)ρ eigenvalues suggests that Mo—P bonds exhibit weaker attractive inter­actions relative to Co—P and Ru—P bonds, with Cr—P bonds being the weakest. These findings provide po­inters to structural and electronic factors governing coordination in PNP-ligated transition-metal com­plexes, offering rational design and catalytic and material applications.

1. Introduction

Nitro­gen-containing phosphines and phosphinites are ligands that have attracted significant attention in transition-metal coordination chemistry over the years (Hierso et al., 2003View full citation; Cotton & Hong, 1992View full citation; Mayer & Kaska, 1994View full citation; Munzeiwa et al., 2020View full citation). Amino­diphosphine derivatives, for instance, are versatile ligands, with the potential to be made more flexible by introducing alkyl chains (Blann et al., 2005View full citation; Olding et al., 2024View full citation) or more rigid by using fixed groups between the P atoms (Overett et al., 2005View full citation; Beims et al., 2023View full citation). Typically, amino­diphosphine ligands coordinate to metal centres via P-donor atoms, often excluding the N atom. However, the coordination behaviour and structural features of these ligands can be influenced by modifying the groups attached to the P or N atoms, enabling bridging or chelating coordination modes (Zhao et al., 2018View full citation; Smith, 2022View full citation), and broadens their applications in coordination chemistry (Konrath et al., 2019View full citation; Vasilenko et al., 2016View full citation; Chirdon et al., 2021View full citation).

Transition-metal com­plexes bearing [MCln(PNP)2] (M = Co, Ru, Cr or Mo; n = 1 or 2) cores in the literature seem to be understudied, especially considering structural features arising from ligand coordination, particularly ligand strain in the P—N—P backbone (Kim et al., 2017View full citation; Fliedel et al., 2016View full citation; Ogawa et al., 2013View full citation; Aydemir et al., 2011View full citation; Naicker et al., 2022View full citation; Naktode et al., 2014View full citation; Gaw et al., 2000View full citation; Stennett et al., 2012View full citation; Balakrishna et al., 2003View full citation; Slawin et al., 2004View full citation). While the existing literature predominantly focuses on synthesis (Slawin et al., 2004View full citation), catalytic performance (Naicker et al., 2022View full citation; Aydemir et al., 2011View full citation; Ogawa et al., 2013View full citation) and basic structural parameters (Gaw et al., 2000View full citation; Fliedel et al., 2016View full citation; Balakrishna et al., 2003View full citation; Slawin et al., 2004View full citation), the explicit effects of ligand-induced strain, particularly from small bite angles inherent in these amino­diphosphine ligands, remain inadequately explored. Notably, significant bite-angle contractions – reported as low as ∼69° in RuII com­plexes (Naicker et al., 2022View full citation; Balakrishna et al., 2003View full citation) and ∼71° in Co com­plexes (Fliedel et al., 2016View full citation) – indicate the substantial strain imposed by these ligands, which likely influences both electronic and steric environments around the metal centres. However, only a few studies explicitly correlate these geometric constraints with broader chemical reactivity or stability implications (Ogawa et al., 2013View full citation; Fliedel et al., 2016View full citation). Moreover, the inter­play between such structural constraints and the van der Waals radii of central transition metals, which could further modulate metal–ligand inter­actions and catalytic outcomes, has rarely been addressed explicitly.

In this article, two new crystal structures of cobalt amino­diphosphine PNP com­plexes (1 and 2; Scheme 1[link]) are reported featuring variation of the N-atom substituent, i.e. n-pentyl in com­plex 1 and isopropyl in com­plex 2, allowing us to evaluate the effect of different N-atom substituents on the behaviour of the PNP ligand. A Cambridge Structural Database (CSD; Groom et al., 2016View full citation) survey of com­plexes bearing [MCln(PNP)2] substructures was also used to gain insights into the correlation between metal–ligand geometric bond parameters and metal ion sizes. Finally, noncovalent inter­action (NCI) analysis was used to investigate the strain of the amino­diphosphine ligands along the P—N—P backbone caused by the various substituents and metal ions. With this in mind, investigation of ligand-strain effects and associated steric-electronic consequences in [MCln(PNP)2] com­plexes represents a significant research gap, promising to yield valuable insights into the structure–reactivity relationships critical for their application in catalysis and materials science (Fliedel et al., 2016View full citation; Ogawa et al., 2013View full citation; Naicker et al., 2022View full citation).

2. Experimental

2.1. Materials and equipment

All experiments were performed using standard Schlenk techniques under inert conditions in moisture-free reaction glassware with anhydrous solvents. All solvents were of analytical grade. To render the reaction glassware moisture free, they were heated with a heat gun, followed by cycles of vacuum and nitro­gen purges. The solvents utilized were dry unless otherwise stated. Diethyl ether and hexane were distilled from sodium benzo­phenone under nitro­gen. Di­chloro­methane was distilled from P2O5 and ethanol from magnesium turnings. Complexes 1 and 2 were synthesized

[Scheme 1]
following the literature procedure of Naicker et al. (2015View full citation). Crystals of 1 and 2 were grown by the vapour diffusion of diethyl ether into a solution of the com­plexes in di­chloro­methane at room temperature to give blue crystals for 1 and 2.

2.2. Crystal structure analyses

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 1[link]. All H atoms were positioned geometrically and allowed to ride on their respective parent atoms. All H atoms were refined isotropically. The disordered n-pentyl group was modelled with split occupancies, with the major com­ponent having a site-occupancy factor of 0.55 (3). In com­plex 2, a solvent mask was calculated and 218 electrons were found in a volume of 830 Å3 in two voids per unit cell. This is consistent with the presence of 1 C4H10O and 0.25 CH2Cl2 molecules per asymmetric unit, which account for 42 and 10 electrons per unit cell, respectively.

Experiments were carried out at 100 K with Mo Kα radiation using a Bruker SMART APEXII area-detector diffractometer. Absorption was corrected for by multi-scan methods (SADABS; Bruker, 2009View full citation). H-atom parameters were constrained.

2.3. Noncovalent inter­actions (NCI) analysis

Noncovalent inter­action (NCI) calculations were per­for­med with NCIPLOT4 (Boto et al., 2020View full citation), a density-based tool that maps subtle inter­molecular forces. NCI analysis was carried out on the basis of promolecular approximations using the crystallographic atomic coordinates of the various metal complexes of interest. Reduced density gradient (RDG) isosurfaces were rendered in VMD 1.9.3 (Humphrey et al., 1996View full citation) and coloured according to sign(λ2)ρ(r), where ρ(r) is the electron density and λ2 is the second eigenvalue of the Hessian matrix. Deep-blue (large negative) values pinpoint strongly attractive regions, such as classical hy­dro­gen bonds, green zones near zero correspond to weak van der Waals contacts and red (positive) values flag steric repulsion (Boto et al., 2020View full citation). The identical colour scale links the 3D isosurfaces (drawn for −0.07 ≤ isovalue ≤ 0.07) to the corresponding 2D NCI plots produced with GNUPLOT 4.6 (Williams et al., 2017View full citation). To gauge backbone strain, P—N—P atom sets were extracted from the CIFs of our transition-metal amino­diphosphine com­plexes (and analogous CSD entries) and analyzed in isolation. An analogous protocol, using the atomic coordinates of the M—P—N—P metallocycle, elucidated the character of the M⋯N contact within each com­plex.

3. Results and discussion

3.1. Description of X-ray crystal structures

Blue crystals of 1 and 2 were obtained by vapour diffusion of diethyl ether into a di­chloro­methane solution of the respective com­plexes. The mol­ecular structures of com­plexes 1 and 2 are shown in Fig. 1[link]. In both com­plexes, two ligands coordinate in a bidentate manner to the cobalt metal centres via the P atoms. Selected bond distances and angles are given in Table 2[link].

The asymmetric unit of com­plex 1 contains two species: the five-coordinated cationic com­plex [CoCl{κ2-P,P-(N)-C5H11}2]2+ and the anionic dimer [Co2(μ2-Cl)2Cl4]2−. The cation has a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry, with the Cl atom and one P atom from each PNP ligand in the equatorial plane, and the remaining two P atoms in axial positions. In contrast, the asymmetric unit of 2 contains a mol­ecule of the five-coordinated cation [CoCl{κ2-P,P-(N)-C3H7}2]2+ and half of the [Co2(μ2-Cl)2Cl4]2− anion. The cationic species in 2 adopts a coordination geometry similar to that of 1.

The equatorial planes of the two com­plexes show P—Co—P angles of 105.67 (2) and 109.47 (2)°, and Cl—Co—P angles of 131.45 (3) and 122.88 (2)° in com­plex 1, and 135.914 (18) and 114.239 (17)° in com­plex 2. These angles are indicative of a dis­torted trigonal-pyramidal geometry. Similar geometrical dis­­tor­tions have been reported in other penta­coordinated transition-metal com­plexes with diphosphine ligands (Nak­tode et al., 2014View full citation; Fliedel et al., 2016View full citation). This was further qu­anti­fied by calculating the φ (tau) index, defined as τ = αβ/60, where α and β correspond to two angles. The τ values for a perfect square-based pyramid and a perfect trigonal bipy­ra­mid are 0 and 1, respectively (Addison et al., 1984View full citation). The structural distortion indices for 1 and 2 were calculated as 0.14 and 0.36, confirming the deviation from ideal geometries and the presence of inter­mediate distortion between square-pyramidal and trigonal-bipyramidal extremes.

The P—N—P bite angle of the bidentate ligand is acute, generating two P—N—P—Co metallacycle planes in each of the com­plexes, with inter­planar angles between 71.58 (3) and 105.28 (4)° in both com­plexes, and with the Co atom displaced slightly towards one of the P atoms. Complex 1 exhibits relatively uniform Co—P bond lengths, with equatorial bonds [2.2514 (6) and 2.2590 (6) Å] slightly shorter than the axial ones [2.2480 (6) and 2.2495 (6) Å]. In contrast, com­plex 2 shows greater asymmetry, with two longer Co—P distances [2.2913 (5) and 2.2654 (5) Å] and two shorter ones [2.2239 (6) and 2.2259 (6) Å], involving both equatorial and axial positions. The Co—Cl bond lengths are close in the two com­plexes [2.2305 (6) and 2.2398 (4) Å] and similar to the same distances in structures found in the literature.

3.2. CSD survey

A com­prehensive survey of the Cambridge Structural Database (CSD, Version 5.40 with updates; Groom et al., 2016View full citation) yielded 20 crystal structures of transition-metal com­plexes bearing bidentate amino­diphosphine (PNP) ligands with a [TMCln(PNP)2] core (TM = transition metal and n = 1 or 2) (Table 3[link]). Ruthenium was the most represented (with 8), followed by cobalt(II) (7), chromium (3) and molybdenum(II) (2). Notably, the ligands feature diverse substituents on the N atom, mainly alkyl or aryl groups, with occasional heteroatom-containing functionalities. Most com­plexes adopt an octa­hedral geometry (14 out of 20), while trigonal-bipyramidal geometries are less common, occurring in only six structures. This distribution reflects the combined steric and electronic influences of the PNP ligands and the inherent preferences of the metal centres.

One key geometric observation across the dataset is an inverse correlation between the P—TM—P bite angle and the nonbonded N⋯TM contact distance. As can be seen in the scatter plot (Fig. 2[link]), com­plexes with larger P—TM—P bite angles exhibit shorter N⋯TM contacts. This suggests that wider bite angles may push the N atom into closer proximity with the metal centre, despite the lack of any formal bonding. The observed trend correlates well with the van der Waals radii of the metals: smaller metals like cobalt (1.63 Å) can accommodate wider P—TM—P angles, resulting in shorter N⋯TM distances. In contrast, larger metals such as ruthenium (1.78 Å) and molybdenum (1.90 Å) typically exhibit narrower bite angles and longer N⋯TM separations. Chromium, with an inter­mediate radius (1.66 Å), shows values consistent with this relationship.

[Figure 2]

The nature of the metal centre significantly influences the conformation of the PNP ligand (the P⋯P distance in particular). A CSD study of uncoordinated PNP gave an average P⋯P distance of 2.988 Å (Engelbrecht et al., 2011View full citation; Keat et al., 1981View full citation; Dunesha et al., 2016View full citation; Cotton et al., 1996View full citation; Gimbert et al., 1999View full citation; Tobias & Hans-Christian, 2012View full citation; Luo et al., 2013View full citation; Cloete et al., 2009View full citation; Liu, 2014View full citation), showing flexibility and an unconstrained backbone. On coordination, a shorter P⋯P distance due to chelation was observed. This chelation effect is observed in com­plexes 1 and 2, which have P⋯P distances of 2.6248 (8)–2.6263(9) and 2.5895 (6)–2.6528 (5) Å, respectively. Similar trends were observed across the 20 related transition-metal com­plexes from the CSD: Cr com­plexes showed P⋯P distances ranging between 2.723 and 2.755 Å, Mo between 2.712 and 2.729 Å, Ru between 2.63 and 2.679 Å, and Co between 2.616 and 2.697 Å (Table 3[link]). The trend suggests that smaller metal centres, such as Co (van der Waals radius ≃ 1.63 Å), pull the P atoms closer together, leading to shorter P⋯P distances. In contrast, larger metals like Mo (≃1.90 Å) allow a more extended ligand conformation, resulting in longer P⋯P separations (Duncan Lyngdoh et al., 2018View full citation). Additionally, P—TM bonding increases the electron-density redistribution, which strengthens the P—TM bonds and indirectly contributes to a shortening of the P⋯P distances (Rauch et al., 2020View full citation). In complexes 1 and 2, the steric properties of the N-substituent do not substantially alter the P⋯P separation [2.6248 (8)–2.6263 (9) Å in 1 and 2.5895 (6)–2.6528 (5) Å in 2], even though they could still contribute to the overall ligand environment.

3.3. NCI analysis of P⋯P and Co⋯N contacts

Noncovalent interaction (NCI) analysis was conducted using the promolecular approximation, which provides a computationally efficient and qualitative description of NCI regions, but should not be relied upon for quantitative electron-density analysis. Inter­actions were assessed using 3D NCI plots com­plemented by 2D scatter plots from reduced density gradient (RDG) calculations, which are shown in Fig. 3[link]. For the P⋯P contacts, distinct regions were identified by orange-coloured RDG isosurfaces in the 3D representation [Fig. 3[link](a)]. This coloration indicates relatively strong steric repulsion or destabilizing inter­actions, consistent with close inter­atomic distances significantly shorter than the sum of the P-atom van der Waals radii (∼3.6 Å). These shortened distances suggest significant steric hindrance between the phospho­rus centres, emphasizing repulsive inter­actions rather than stabilizing dis­persive inter­actions. The 2D scatter plots support this inter­pretation, displaying characteristic peaks in the positive region of the electron density multiplied by the second Hessian eigenvalue, confirming the predominantly repulsive nature of these inter­actions.

The NCI analysis of the Co⋯N inter­action within com­plex 1 also showed orange-coloured RDG isosurfaces, indicating a notable degree of steric repulsion or strain around the metal coordination site. The Co⋯N contacts exhibited features consistent with partially destabilizing inter­actions, which likely arise due to steric constraints imposed by ligand architecture or coordination geometry. Correspondingly, the 2D scatter plots revealed distinctive peaks extending into the positive region of electron density multiplied by the second Hessian eigenvalue, further substanti­ating the sterically dominated nature of the Co⋯N inter­actions.

The NCI analysis was extended to other [TMCln(PNP)2] com­plexes according to the CSD survey in Section 3.2[link]. Only one of each representative transition-metal type of [TMCln(PNP)2] com­plexes was selected for this analysis. The 3D representations and corresponding 2D scatter plots demonstrated pronounced orange-coloured isosurfaces and positive RDG peaks between the P atoms in the ligands (Fig. 4[link]), similar to that of com­plex 1 [Figs. 3[link](a) and 3(b)], thus suggesting a repulsion rather than attractive dispersive inter­action between the P atoms. Upon coordination with Co (CSD refcode ILIKAR; Fliedel et al., 2016View full citation) and Ru (AXOSOV; Díez et al., 2004View full citation), similar orange-coloured RDG isosurfaces persist in the M⋯N inter­action zones, alongside characteristic positive peaks around the 0.05 sign(λ2)ρ(r) eigenvalue in the corresponding 2D scatter plot (Fig. 4[link]). As for the Mo (CEMTAR; Ogawa et al., 2013View full citation) and Cr (QIDJAQ; Stennett et al., 2012View full citation) com­plexes, the M⋯N inter­action zones also exhibited characteristic positive peaks around the 0.04 and 0.035 sign(λ2)ρ(r) values, respectively, which could imply that there is a lesser degree of repulsion between the transition metal and its corresponding ligand. Inter­estingly, the sign(λ2)ρ values of the Mo—P bond in CEMTAR were found to be around −0.06, which is greater than that of Co—P (ILIKAR) and Ru—P (AXOSOV), which are ≤ −0.07. This implies that the Mo—P bond has an inherently weaker attraction between the Mo and P atoms than that seen for Co—P (ILIKAR) and Ru—P (AXOSOV). Finally, looking at the Cr—P bond in QIDJAQ, we observe sign(λ2)ρ(r) values between −0.05 and −0.04, which is typically in the range of hy­dro­gen bonding (Zamisa et al., 2022View full citation) or weak noncovalent inter­actions (Mphahlele et al., 2023View full citation). This suggests that the Cr—P bond in QIDJAQ is much weaker than the other M—P bonds investigated in this work and this could be the determining factor behind elongated Cr⋯N distances which ultimately leads to weaker coordination of the amino­diphosphine ligand to Cr.

4. Conclusion

Two novel cobalt com­plexes (1 and 2), each bearing a [CoCl(PNP-κ2P,P′)2] core, were successfully synthesized and structurally characterized in the solid state. Both adopt distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometries with coordination occurring exclusively through the P atoms of the PNP ligands. Complexes 1 and 2 feature five-coordinated [CoCl{κ2-P,P-(N)-C5H11}2]2+ and [CoCl{κ2-P,P-(N)-C3H7}2]2+ cationic spe­cies, respectively, along with [Co2(μ2-Cl)2Cl4]2− counter-ions. A com­prehensive CSD survey, com­plemented by noncovalent inter­action (NCI) analysis, provided further insight into the relationship between structural features and metal identity. The survey confirmed that octa­hedral geometries dominate among [TMCln(PNP)2] com­plexes, while trigonal-bipyramidal geometries are relatively rare, reflecting the steric and electronic constraints imposed by the PNP ligand framework and the preferences of individual metal centres. A key trend identified was an inverse correlation between the P—TM—P bite angles and the N⋯TM contact distances, which is largely governed by the van der Waals radii of the metals. Smaller metals like cobalt (1.63 Å) accommodate wider bite angles and shorter stronger N⋯TM inter­actions. In contrast, larger metals such as ruthenium (1.78 Å) and molybdenum (1.90 Å) exhibit narrower bite angles and longer N⋯TM contacts, with chromium showing inter­mediate behaviour. NCI analysis revealed notable steric repulsion at Co⋯N contact points, indicating strain within the coordination sphere likely induced by the constrained ligand geometry. Similar effects were observed across the broader dataset of [TMCln(PNP)2] com­plexes. The sign(λ2)ρ eigenvalues further suggest that Mo—P bonds are weaker than their Co—P and Ru—P counterparts, with Cr—P inter­actions being the weakest overall. Despite the potential for moderate-to-strong M⋯N inter­actions, steric hindrance from the ligand backbone significantly limits such coordination. However, to obtain a more accurate representation of the electron-density distribution, NCI analysis based on quantum-chemical wavefunction is required, as it accounts for electronic relaxation, polarization and charge-transfer effects that the promolecular approximation cannot capture. These insights highlight how subtle structural and electronic factors — such as ligand bite angle, metal size and steric effects — govern coordination in PNP-ligated transition-metal com­plexes, offering valuable guidance for their design in catalysis and materials chemistry.

Refinement. Crystals of the complexes were each selected and glued onto the tip of glass fibers. The crystals were then mounted in a stream of cold nitrogen at 100 (1) K and centred in the X-ray beam using a video camera. Crystal evaluation and data collection were performed on a Bruker SMART APEXII diffractometer with Mo Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Å) and a diffractometer-to-crystal distance of 4.00 cm. The initial cell matrix was obtained from three series of scans at different starting angles. Each series consisted of 12 frames collected at intervals of 0.5° in a 6° range with the exposure time of about 10 s per frame. The reflections were indexed successfully by an automated indexing routine built in the APEX2 program suite (Bruker, 2009). Data collection method involved ω scans of width 0.5°. Data reduction was carried out using SAINT-Plus (Bruker, 2009). The structures were solved by direct methods using SHELXS (Sheldrick, 2008) and refined using olex2.refine (Dolomanov et al., 2009). Both structures were checked for solvent-accessible cavities using PLATON (Spek, 2020) and the graphics were created with OLEX2 (Dolomanov et al., 2009). Non-H atoms were first refined isotropically and then by anisotropic refinement with full-matrix least-squares calculations based on F2 using SHELXS.
