Reactivity of diacetylplatinum(II) complexes: oxidative addition of alkyl halides and crystal structures of acetyl platinum(IV) complexes

摘要

Diacetylplatinum(II) complexes [Pt(COMe)₂(N^N)] (N^N = bpy, 3a; 4,4′-t-Bu₂-bpy, 3b) were found to undergo oxidative addition reactions with organyl halides. The reaction of 3a with methyl iodide and propargyl bromide led to the formation of the cis addition products (OC-6-34)-[Pt(COMe)₂(R)X(bpy)] (R = Me, X = I, 4a; CH₂C≡CH, X = Br, 4k). Analogous reactions of 3a with ethyl iodide, benzyl bromide, and substituted benzyl bromides, 3-(bromomethyl)pyridine, 2-(bromomethyl)thiophene, allyl bromide, and cyclohex-2-enyl bromide led to exclusive formation of the trans addition products (OC-6-43)-[Pt(COMe)₂(R)X(bpy)] (X = I, R = Et, 4b; X = Br, R = CH₂C₆H₅, 4c; CH₂C₆H₄(o-Br), 4d; CH₂C₆H₄(p-COOH), 4e; CH₂-3-py (3-pyridylmethyl), 4f; CH₂-2-tp (2-thiophenylmethyl), 4g; CH₂CH=CH₂, 4h; c-hex-2-enyl (cyclohex-2-enyl), 4i). All complexes 4 were characterized by microanalysis, 1H and 13C NMR and IR spectroscopy. Additionally, complexes 4a, 4f, and 4g were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses. Reactions of 3a and 3b with o-, m- and p-bis(bromomethyl)benzene, respectively, led to the formation of dinuclear platinum(IV) complexes [{Pt(COMe)₂Br(N^N)}₂-{μ-(CH₂)₂C₆H₄}] (5). These complexes were characterized by microanalysis, IR spectroscopy, and depending on their solubility by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy, too. A single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of complex [{Pt(COMe)₂Br(bpy)}₂{μ-m-(CH₂)₂C₆H₄}] (5b) confirmed its dinuclear composition. The solid-state structures of 4a, 4f, 4g, and 5b are discussed in terms of C–H···O and O–H···O hydrogen bonds as well as π–π stacking between aromatic rings.
