A New Chiral Tridentate Ferrocenyl Ligand. Synthesis and Characterization of Its Palladium(I1)and Nickel(I1) Complexes Pierluigi Barbarot and Antonio Togni* Laboratory of Znorganic Chemistry, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, ETH-Zentrum, CH-8092 Zurich, Switzerland Received March 21, 1995@ Summary: A novel chiral tridentate phosphine ligand based on ferrocene (5) can be readily obtained from cyclohexylphosphine and N,N-dimethyl-(S)-l-[(R)-2(diphenylphosphino)ferrocenyllethylamine(4) in acetic acid. Ligand 5 adopts a meridional coordination geometry with d8-metal centers. The crystal structure of [Pd(5)ClIPF6 (6) has been determined.

The key reaction in their synthesis is the introduction of the ligating fragment attached to the stereogenic center. This is carried out in acetic acid using either a secondary phosphine or a pyrazole as the nucleophile. We extended this methodology to primary phosphines and now report the preparation and char+ Present address: ISSECC-CNR, via J . Nardi, 39,I-50132 Firenze, Italy.

Cilli chain stereocenters, leading to an (S)-(R)configuration CllOl on both the ferrocenyl units. The final product could be isolated in satisfactory yield d e r purification by column chromatography and recrystallization. Noteworthy, the use of phenylphosphine as the nucleophile under the same reaction conditions gave only a small amount of the elimination product l-(diphenylphosphino)-2-vinylferrocene,along with unidentified species. The two ferrocenyl moieties of “Pigiphos”are diastereotopic, as demonstrated by the 31P and lH NMR spectra. The 31PNMR spectrum of “Pigiphos” can be seen as the superimposition of two AX spin systems (A = CyP, X = PhzP) in which the two PhzP phosphorus atoms have the same chemical shift but very different coupling constants to the central CyP nucleus C4Jpp = 28.1 and 4Jpp = 9.9 Hz, respectively).

Conclusions The readily prepared ligand “Pigiphos” is suited for the formation of cationic d8-metal complexes in which the metal center is held in a rigid coordination environment. The system is thus suited for reactions involving the singular fowth coordination site. Preliminary experiments show that the dicationic Ni(I1) complex 8 behaves as a Lewis acid and readily catalyzes the hetero Diels-Alder reaction of aldehydes with activated dienes? These investigations, as well as studies concerning the behavior of “Pigiphos” in an octahedral coordination geometry are under way and will be reported in due course. Experimental Section All manipulations were performed under an N2 atmosphere using standard Schlenk techniques. ‘H and 31PNMR spectra were recorded at 250.13 and 101.3 MHz, respectively, on a Bruker 250-ACP spectrometer (unless otherwise stated), and IR spectra on a Perkin-Elmer Paragon 1000 FT-IR spectrometer using KBr pellets.

Notes = 0.710 73 A, F(OO0) = 2432. The data were collected on a Syntex P21 diffractometer using the w scan mode (28 range = 3.0-40.0”). Data were measured with variable scan speeds (l.O-4.Oo/min in w ) to ensure constant statistical precision on the collected intensities. No absorption correction was applied. The structure was solved using direct methods. Of the 2718 independent reflections, 2117 with F =- 3.OdF) were used in the refinement. A total of 343 parameters were refined by fullmatrix least squares using SHELXTL PLUS (data-to-parameter ratio 6.2:1, quantity minimized Zw(F, - FA2). Due to the relatively low number of reflections, all carbon atoms were refined using isotropicdisplacement parameters. The contribution of the hydrogen atoms in their idealized positions (riding model with fured isotropic U = 0.080 Az)was taken into account but not refined. The final residuals (on all data) were R = 0.059 and R, = 0.046 (weighting scheme w - l = u2(F) 0.0005F; GOF = 1.01).
