The title compound, C24H47PSi2, is the first organophosphane bearing two tert-butyl­dimethyl­silyl (TBDMS) groups to be crystallographically characterized, even though TBDMS is a very popular bulky silyl group. The structure is a considerably flattened trigonal pyramid, with the sum of the C/Si-P-C/Si angles being 333.35 (6)°, which can be attributed to the steric pressure from the three bulky groups. The P-Si distances [2.2605 (6) and 2.2631 (6) Å] are normal, while the P-C distance [1.8646 (12) Å] is long (outside the s.u. values) compared with related structures. The plane of the aryl ring approximately bisects the Si-P-Si angle, quite unlike the secondary (tert-butyl­dimethyl­silyl)(2,6-diisopropyl­phenyl)phosphane bearing only one TBDMS group, in which the single Si atom is perpendicular to the aryl ring. The title structure conforms closely to that predicted from B3LYP/6-31G(d) calculations, although the calculations overestimate the degree of planarity. The compound crystallizes centrosymmetrically in the space group P\overline{1} as isolated mol­ecules.

Comment top

The title compound, (I), was prepared as part of a larger study of functional derivatives of 2,6-diisopropylphenylphosphane, DippPH2 (Boeré & Masuda, 2002), including the mono- and bis(trimethylsilyl)- and the mono- and bis(tert-butyldimethylsilyl)- (TBDMS) derivatives. The structure obtained from the diffraction study of DippP(TBDMS)2 can be compared with the previously published B3LYP/6-31G(d) hybrid density functional theory (DFT) calculations (Boeré & Masuda, 2002).

A key feature of phosphanes with bulky substituents is the sum of the angles about the central P atom (Boeré & Zhang, 2005). Experimentally, Σ(C,Si—P—C,Si) = 333.35 (6)° for (I), while the computed value is 346.1°. Key bond lengths are P—Si [experimentally 2.2605 (6) and 2.2631 (6) Å, compared with computed 2.276 and 2.296 Å] and P—C [experimentally 1.8646 (12) Å and 1.881 Å by computation]. In each of these parameters, the DFT calculations overestimate, though the effect for the bond distances is small (0.7 to 1.45%). However, the bond-angle sum is considerably overestimated, by 3.8%. Comparisons can also be made with DippP(H)TBDMS (Boeré & Masuda, 2002) and P(TBDMS)3 (Nieger et al., 1997) [Cambridge Structural Database (CSD; Allen, 2002) refcodes LUTDEJ and GATROI, respectively]. In the former, P—Si = 2.269 (9) and P—C = 1.854 (2) Å; both values lie outside the s.u. and are, respectively, longer and shorter. This structure, with H in place of one bulky group, is of course much more pyramidal. In the Nieger et al. structure, the average P—Si value is 2.268 (1) Å, marginally longer than in (I). With three bulky TBDMS groups, the sums of angles can be meaningfully contrasted. Thus Σ(Si—P—Si) = 329.86 (7)°, about 1% smaller than in (I). All three TBDMS orient their tBu groups exo to the PSi3 pyramid, which allows for less steric congestion in the inner `pocket', whereas in (I) only one tBu group has this orientation, due to the greater congestion from the two flanking iPr groups of the Dipp ring. The P—C bond in (I) is also long and outside the s.u., compared with the value of 1.8507 (16) Å found in the comparably congested PDipp3, which has Σ(C—P—C) = 335.64 (6)° (refcode PIXDEG; Boeré et al. 2008).

The TBDMS group has also been used to stabilize two compounds with P—P bonds, namely (TBDMS)2P—P(TBDMS)2 (refcode WIHJOM; Westermann & Nieger, 1990) and (TBDMS)2P—P(NiPr2)2 (refcode SIYXUT; Bender et al., 1994). These two structures represent the only other known crystal structures with TBDMS groups attached to P, despite the widespread use of this popular bulky hydride synthon in preparative phosphorus chemistry.

Precisely, three crystal structures of phosphanes bearing one aryl and two trimethylsilyl groups have been reported in the literature [refcodes GEDDAU (Cowley et al., 1987), and SIQBEZ and SIQBID (McMurran et al., 1998) [Correctly rearranged?]), but only that reported by Cowley et al. incorporates a bulky aryl group. In this structure, bis(trimethylsilyl)(2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl)phosphane, the value for Σ(C,Si—P—C,Si) is 343.1 (6)°, making it the most sterically congested PCSi2-substituted phosphane on record, as is also reflected in the severe structural distortion, such that the P atom in this structure is some 0.90 Å above the mean plane of the six aromatic ring C atoms (Cowley et al., 1987). By contrast, in (I) the P atom is located 0.192 (2) Å above the mean ring plane.

Experimental top

Full synthetic details for the preparation of the title compound have already been published (Boeré & Masuda, 2002). At the time of the original study, crystals of (tert-butyldimethylsilyl)(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)phosphane, DippP(H)TBDMS, were obtained, but DippP(TBDMS)2 could only be obtained as an oil or a white sublimate. Over time while stored at 263 K, the oil formed single crystals suitable for an X-ray diffraction study, the results of which are reported here.

Refinement top

C-bound H atoms were treated as riding, with C—H = 0.98 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) for methyl, C—H = 1.00 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for methine, and C—H = 0.95 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) for aromatic H atoms. No data were rejected and the largest peak and hole in the final difference map were much smaller than the equivalent electron density of an H atom.

Experimental. A crystal coated in Paratone (TM) oil was mounted on the end of a thin glass capillary and cooled in the gas stream of the diffractometer Kryoflex device.

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 > 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.
