The title compound, [PtCl2(C13H26NP)2], is a rare example of a sterically bulky ligand adopting a cis geometry in a square-planar complex. It crystallizes on a twofold rotation axis which bisects the Pt centre and the P—Pt—P′ and Cl—Pt—Cl′ angles. The ligand exhibits a random packing disorder in the N,N-dimethyl­propyl­amine substituent, with the two orientations refining to occupancies of 0.404 (15) and 0.596 (15). Weak inter­molecular inter­actions between a Cl and a H atom of the ligand of a neighbouring mol­ecule result in extended chains along the a axis. The effective cone angle for the di­methyl[3-(9-phosphabicyclo­[3.3.1]non-9-yl)propyl]amine (Phoban[3.3.1]-C3NMe2) ligand was determined as being in the range 160–181°, depending on the choice of atoms used in the calculations.

Comment top

Phoban ligands are derived from the radical addition reaction of cis,cis-1,5-cyclooctadiene with an RPH2 moiety (R = H or other suitable monoanionic group such as alkyl or aryl). A mixture of symmetrical and unsymmetrical adducts is obtained, 9-R-9-phosphabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane and 9-R-9-phosphabicyclo[4.2.1]nonane, respectively (Van Winkle et al., 1969). It has been shown that the two isomers may be conveniently separated by selective protonation and aqueous extraction of the [3.3.1] isomer, which is substantially more basic than the [4.2.1] isomer (Eberhard et al., 2005). These ligands are of significant industrial importance in a number of homogeneously catalysed processes, most notably modified cobalt hydroformylation, as used by Shell (Van Winkle et al., 1969).

We previously conducted a systematic evaluation of the steric and electronic aspects of these ligands (Bungu & Otto, 2007a) through their respective phosphine selenides. In addition, their catalytic performance was evaluated in phosphine modified cobalt hydroformylation reactions (Bungu & Otto, 2007b). The Phoban-C3NMe2 ligand (both isomers) represents an interesting derivative, since it contains a tertiary alkyl amine substituent that could potantially coordinate to metal centres in addition to the P atom. It could also act as a hemilabile pendant group or facilitate intermolecular interactions with substrate molecules in solution.

In order to investigate the coordination mode of these ligands, we reacted PtCl2(COD) with a solution containing a mixture of both ligand isomers totalling two molar equivalents. Crystals of the the title compound, (I), were obtained from the reaction mixture after slow evaporation of about 60% of the solvent. Even though 31P NMR analysis indicated a mixture of species in solution, crystals of (I) suitable for X-ray diffraction were selectively obtained at this point. This is in accordance with our previous work (Bungu & Otto, 2007a,b), where the [3.3.1] isomers of different Phoban derivatives were found to display a higher degree of crystallinity than the corresponding [4.2.1] isomers.

Compound (I) crystallizes with a distorted square-planar geometry on a twofold rotation axis running through the Pt metal centre and bisecting the P1—Pt—P1i and Cl1—Pt—Cl1i [symmetry code: (i) x, -y, 1/2 - z] angles (see Fig. 1). The bulky ligands adopt the thermodynamically preferred cis orientation (from a bond energy perspective), as opposed to a sterically governed trans orientation. The ligand exhibits a random packing disorder in the N,N-dimethylpropylamine substituent, with the two orientations refining to occupancies of 0.406 (14) and 0.594 (15) for fragments A and B, respectively (see Fig. 2).

The Pt1—P1 and Pt1—Cl1 bond distances within the coordination polyhedron are within the expected ranges at 2.2571 (11) and 2.3612 (11) Å respectively (Table 2). All bond angles in the coordination environment of the metal centre deviate significantly from what would be expected for a square-planar geometry. The large P1—Pt—P1i angle of 97.47 (6)° and the small Cl1—Pt—Cl1i angle of 86.23 (6)° are a reflection of the steric impact of the two bulky phosphine ligands in close proximity. In general, the cistrans geometry is governed by both the steric and electronic properties of the ligands. Strongly coordinating ligands, such as phosphines, would prefer a cis orientation, but increased steric demand of the ligands may result in a trans geometry being adopted. Compound (I) represents a rare example in which sterically bulky ligands (effective cone angle in the range 160–181°) display a cis geometry. In comparison, the trans isomer was obtained in trans-[PtCl2(PBz3)2] (PBz3 is tribenzylphosphine) where effective cone angles of 160 and 162° was calculated for two independant molecules in the unit cell (Johansson et al., 2002).All P—C bond distances and C—P—C angles are within normal ranges for molecules such as these (Bungu & Otto, 2007a,b).

The orientation of the phosphine ligands seems to be directed by an intramolecular interaction between the H atom on atom C15 and atom Cl1 [Cl1···C15 = 3.234 (5) Å, Cl1···H15 = 2.72 Å and Cl1···H15—C15 = 114°]. This results in the smaller sections of the ligands facing each other, with the larger C3NMe2 substituents occupying opposite sides of the equatorial plane. In addition, weak intermolecular interactions are observed between Cl1 and H11ii [symmetry code: (ii) x - 1/2, -y, z] of a neighboring molecule, creating infinite chains along the a axis (Fig. 3) [Cl1···C11 = 3.562 (5) Å, Cl1···H11 = 2.75 Å and Cl1···H11—C11 = 141°]. No close interactions were found between the amine functional group and a Pt or Cl atom.

Describing the steric demand of phosphine ligands has been the topic of many studies and a variety of models have been developed in this regard (Bunten et al., 2002). In practice, the Tolman cone angle (Tolman, 1977) is still the most commonly used model, due to its simplicity and ease of calculation. According to this model, a cylindical cone is constructed from a point 2.28 Å from P, just touching the van der Waals radii of the outermost atoms of the ligand. In addition, all substituents on P should be adjusted to occupy the smallest possible space; since ball-and-stick models were originally used, this could be done manually. In the case of tri-n-alkyl phosphines, this would thus result in all ligands containing alkyl chains with C > 2 having the same steric demand as PEt3, since the rest of the chain would fall within the `slipstream' of the ligand. With the development of user-friendly graphics software for crystallography, it has become more common to determine cone angles using the geometry obtained during a crystal structure determination. This principle has been further developed (Otto, 2001) into the concept of the `effective cone angle', where the crystallographically determined metal—P bond distance is used and the cone is determined as that touching the van der Waals radii of the outermost atoms of the ligand. In this regard, using the Pt—P bond distance obtained in this study, but calculating the cone to the outermost H atoms on C22A and C22B (as representative of the N,N-dimethylpropylamine substituent), results in values of 168 and 160° for orientations A and B, respectively. Even though quite a distance removed from Pt (±4.2–4.7 Å), the outermost point on this substituent is, however, an H atom on one of the Me groups on the amine, and using this in the calculations results in values of 179 and 181° for orientations A and B, respectively. These values should be regarded with some caution when interpreting metal reactivities in terms of the steric bulk of the ligands, as they may not reflect the true environment surrounding the metal.

Experimental top

The Phoban-C3NMe2 ligand (mixture of isomers) was prepared as described previously (Bungu & Otto, 2007a). All manipulations involving the free ligand were performed using degassed solvents and working under a positive argon atmosphere to prevent oxidation. PtCl2(COD) (COD is cis,cis-1,5-cyclooctadiene) (125 mg, 0.33 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (5 ml) and a dichloromethane solution of the ligand mixture (1.08 ml, 618 mM, 0.67 mmol) was subsequently added. The resulting reaction mixture was stirred overnight and a portion was subjected to 31P NMR analysis. 31P (CDCl3, δ, p.p.m.): cis-[PtCl2(Phoban[4.2.1]-C3NMe2)2] -0.40 (t, 1JPt—P = 3536 Hz); cis-[PtCl2(Phoban[3.3.1]-C3NMe2)2] 29.79 (t, 1JPt—P = 3432 Hz); cis-[PtCl2(Phoban[3.3.1]-C3NMe2)(Phoban[4.2.1]-C3NMe2)] 1.76 ([4.2.1]-isomer, td, 1JPt—P = 3524 Hz, 2JP—P = 15 Hz), 31.31 ([3.3.1]-isomer, td, 1JPt—P = 3443 Hz, 2JP—P = 15 Hz). Slow evaporation of the solvent (dichloromethane) from the residual reaction mixture resulted in crystals of compound (I) being obtained.

Refinement top

The random packing disorder in the N,N-dimethylpropylamine part of the ligand was refined by the use of a free variable in the positions of the two orientations, adding up to unity occupancy over the two sites. Occupancies of 0.406 (14) and 0.594 (15) were obtained for fragments A and B, respectively. No restraints were required to stabilize the refinement. It was, however, noted that the C21—C22A and C21—C22B bond distances differed significantly [0.190 (16)Å] and a similarity restraint was subsequently introduced for these two bonds. The restraint did not have a marked effect on the geometrical parameters within the coordination polyhedron, or on the refinement statistics. All H atoms were placed in geometrically idealized positions, with C—H distances of 0.98 for CH, 0.97 for CH2 or 0.96 Å for CH3, and constrained to ride on their parent atoms, with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for CH and CH2 or 1.5Ueq(C) for CH3. The maximum residual electron density of 1.62 e Å-3 is located 0.83 Å from the Pt atom.

Special details top

Experimental. The intensity data were collected on a Bruker X8 ApexII 4 K Kappa CCD diffractometer using an exposure time of 200 s/frame with a frame width of 0.5°; a total of 1066 frames were collected.

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