Abstract
Several complexes of the intramolecular frustrated Lewis pair (FLP)-supported P(−1) ligand [iPr2P(C6H4)BCy2{P}]− are presented (Cy=cyclohexyl). Chief among these is the first example of a monomeric zinc bis(phosphido) complex, which was synthesized as a potential precursor for the solution-phase deposition of Zn3P2. While this goal was ultimately unsuccessful, the Zn(II) complex acts as a convenient springboard to other metal phosphide species via transmetallation: affording a tellurium bis(phosphido) complex and a formal adduct of the phosphorus subhalide PPCl2. Trapping experiments show that the PPCl2 adduct can also be prepared directly through the in situ reduction of PCl3 in the presence of an intramolecular FLP ligand. Lastly, we report a formal η2-phosphaborene complex of cobalt(−1) which is isoelectronic to olefin complexes, and explore its bonding via density functional theory (DFT) computations.
