ABSTRACT: The synthesis and structural characterization of lithium, magnesium, potassium, and a series of low-valent group 14 metal compounds derived from the novel 2-quinolyl-linked phosphoranosulfide CH2(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2) (3) are reported. The monoanionic thiophosphinoyl lithium complex [Li(Et2O){CH(iPr2P−S)(C9H6N-2)}]2 (4) and magnesium complex [Mg{CH(iPr2P−S)(C9H6N-2)}2] (5) have been prepared from the reaction of 3 with 1 equiv of nBuLi or 0.5 equiv of nBu2Mg in THF. Metathesis of 4 with 2 equiv of KtBuO afforded the corresponding polymeric thiophosphinoyl potassium complex [K{CH(iPr2P−S)(C9H6N-2)}]n (6). The metathesis reaction of 4 with GeCl2·(dioxane) and PbCl2 afforded the “open-box” 1,3digermacyclobutane [Ge{μ2-C(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2)]2 (9) and “twisted-step” 1,3-diplumbacyclobutane [Pb{μ2-C(iPr2P S)(C9H6N-2)]2 (10), respectively. Reaction of 3 with 1 equiv of M{N(SiMe3)2}2 (M = Sn, Pb) afforded the corresponding “open-box” 1,3-distannacyclobutane [Sn{μ2-C(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2)]2 (11) and [Pb{μ2-C(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2)]2 (12), respectively. The structures of 3−6 and 9−12 have been determined by X-ray crystallography.

relatively long metal−carbon bond distance.9−11 Nevertheless, thiophosphinoyl ligands have rarely been used as ancillary ligands in the synthesis of group 14 metal complexes. Recently, we have reported the synthesis of group 14 metal complexes derived from bis(diphenylthiophosphinoyl)methane and 2,6-lutidyl bis(phosphoranosulfide), respectively.12,13 The heavier analogues of allene 2-silaallene, 2-germaallene, and 2-stannaallene have been reported, which were also derived from bis(diphenylthiophosphinoyl)methane.14−16 Herein, we report the synthesis of a novel 2-quinolyl-linked (thiophosphorano)methane, which can be used to synthesize lithium, potassium, magnesium, and some low-valent heavier group 14 metal complexes.

INTRODUCTION The coordination chemistry of thiophosphinoyl transition-metal complexes has been studied by several research groups since the 1970s.1 Phosphoranosulfides R3PS can be deprotonated by a strong base to give anionic species, which can be used as ligands in the synthesis of organometallic compounds. An unprecedented organoaluminium compound was first reported by Robinson and co-workers through an in situ double deprotonation of neutral bis(diphenylthiophosphinoyl)methane, H2C(PPh2S)2, with AlMe3.2 Using the same phosphinoylmethane, Le Floch and co-workers reported the synthesis of a dianionic lithium complex of bis(diphenylthiophosphinoyl)methanediide.3 Afterward, stable Pd(II), Ru(II), Zr(IV), and Tm(III) metal carbenoids and dicarbenoids were prepared from the dianion derived from bis(diphenylthiophosphinoyl)methane.4−8 By using the dilithium complex as a ligand transfer reagent, various lanthanide and actinide metal carbene complexes have been successfully synthesized. Theoretical calculations on these carbene complexes suggested that the metal−carbon double-bond character is relatively weak and the π bond is strongly polarized toward the carbon atom, resulting in a © 2013 American Chemical Society

Scheme 1. Synthesis of Compound 3

3 with 2 equiv of KtBuO in THF gave the polymeric 2-quinolyllinked potassium (thiophosphinoyl)methanide complex [K{CH(iPr2P−S)(C9H6N-2)}]n (6) (Scheme 3). Synthesis of 2-Quinolyl-Linked 1,3-Digermacyclobutane, 1,3-Distannacyclobutane, and 1,3-Diplumbacyclobutane. Reaction of 4 with 1 equiv of GeCl2.(dioxane) or 1 equiv of PbCl2 in THF gave the “open-box” 1,3-digermacyclobutane and “twisted-step” 1,3-diplumbacyclobutane. We suggest that a possible mechanism could be that 0.5 equiv of 4 reacted with 1 equiv of MCl2 (M = Ge, Pb) to give the intermediate heteroleptic metal(II) chloride 7. A further dehydrochlorination reaction of 7 with another 0.5 equiv of 4 accompanied by the elimination of LiCl gave the unstable intermediate metallavinylidene [:MC(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2)] (8; M = Ge, Pb), which then underwent a “head-to-tail” cyclodimerization to give the 1,3-digermacyclobutane [Ge{μ2-C(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2)]2 (9) and [Pb{μ2-C(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2)]2 (10), respectively (Scheme 4). It is believed that 4 acted as a ligand-transfer reagent as well as a strong base for dehydrochlorination to form 9 and 10. Similar dehydrochlorinations have been reported in the synthesis of bis(germavinylidene) from the reaction of GeCl2·(dioxane) with [Li{CH(PPh2NSiMe3)2}(THF)]17 and group 13 bis(thiophosphinoyl)methanediide metal complexes from the reaction of MCl3 (M = Al, Ga, In) with [Li{CH(PPh2 S)2(Et2O)(THF)}].18 Attempts to synthesize compound 9 with 1 equiv of Ge{N(SiMe 3 ) 2 }2 were not successful; only CH2(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2) was isolated from the reaction mixture. Reaction of 3 with 1 equiv of M{N(SiMe3)2}2 (M = Sn, Pb) afforded the corresponding “open-box” 1,3-distannacyclobutane [Sn{μ2-C(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2)]2 (11) and [Pb{μ2-C(iPr2P S)(C9H6N-2)]2 (12), respectively (Scheme 5). We proposed that a possible mechanism could be that the reactions proceed through the unstable metallavinylidenes [:MC(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2)] (8; M = Sn, Pb) with the elimination of 2 equiv of hexamethyldisilazane, followed by a head-to-tail cyclodimerization to form the 1,3-dimetallacyclobutane. Compound 10 was isolated as a “twisted-step” structure, while compound 12 was isolated as an “open-box” structure. It is believed that different solvent properties contributed to the isolation of different

addition of chlorodiisopropylphosphine, afforded the corresponding diphosphine CH2(iPr2P)(C9H6N-2) (2). Further treatment of phosphine 2 with elemental sulfur in THF at 60 °C afforded the novel 2-quinolyl-linked (thiophosphorano)methane CH2(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2) (3) (Scheme 1). Compound 3 was isolated as a white crystalline solid after recrystallization from THF. Synthesis of Monoanionic 2-Quinolyl-Linked Lithium (Thiophosphinoyl)methanide Complex and Magnesium Bis(thiophosphinoyl)methanide Complex. The reaction of 3 with 1 equiv of nBuLi in THF gave the dimeric 2-quinolyllinked lithium (thiophosphinoyl)methanide complex [Li(Et2O){CH(iPr2P−S)(C9H6N-2)}]2 (4). A similar reaction of 3 with 0.5 equiv of nBu2Mg in THF afforded the 2-quinolyl-linked magnesium bis(thiophosphinoyl)methanide complex [Mg{CH(iPr2P−S)(C9H6N-2)}2] (5) (Scheme 2). Scheme 2.

red crystalline solids. They have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The 1 H NMR and 13C{1H} NMR spectra of 3−6 are consistent with the compounds having a 2-quinolyl ligand backbone. The 1H NMR and 13C{1H} NMR spectra of 3 are normal and are consistent with the solid-state structure. Furthermore, the 31 1 P{ H} NMR spectra of 4−6 displayed one signal at δ 51.7, 51.0, and 53.5 ppm, respectively, which are also consistent with structures having one phosphorus environment in 4−6. The 1H NMR and 13C{1H} NMR spectra of 9−12 are consistent with the compounds having the 2-quinolyl ligand backbone. The absence of methylene protons in 9−12 has been confirmed by 1H NMR. The 31P{1H} NMR spectra of 9 displayed one signal at δ 69.5 ppm, while 10 displayed two signals at δ 57.6 and δ 59.8 ppm with lead satellites (2J31P−207Pb = 68.0 and 63.2 Hz), respectively. This is due to two nonequivalent phosphorus nuclei present in 10. The 207Pb NMR spectrum also displayed two broad signals at δ 2189 (ν1/2 = 507 Hz) and δ 2647 (ν1/2 = 507 Hz) ppm; no resolvable 207Pb−31P coupling could be observed in the 207Pb{1H} NMR spectrum. This is comparable to the signal found in [{2-{Pb{C(iPr2PS)}}-6-{CH2(iPr2PS)}}C5H3N]2 (δ 2197 ppm).12 The 31P{1H} NMR spectrum of 11 displayed one signal at δ 61.8 ppm with tin satellites (2J31P−119Sn = 45.4 Hz), which suggests the two phosphorus nuclei are equivalent. The 119Sn{1H} NMR spectrum displayed one signal at δ −12.0 ppm with phosphorus satellites (2J31P−119Sn = 95.4 Hz), which is also consistent with one tin chemical environment. This is comparable to the 119Sn signals reported in [{2-{Sn{C(iPr2P S)}}-6-{CH2(iPr2PS)}}C5H3N]2 (δ −4.0 ppm)12 but relatively downfield in comparison to [Sn{μ2-C(Ph2PS)2}]2 (δ −129.6 ppm).13 The 31P{1H} NMR spectrum of 12 displayed two signals at δ 58.7 and δ 60.9 ppm with lead satellites (2J31P−207Pb = 66.4 and 61.6 Hz), respectively. This is due to the two nonequivalent phosphorus nuclei present in 12. The 207Pb NMR spectrum also displayed two signals at δ 2644 (ν1/2 = 152 Hz) and δ 2646 (ν1/2 = 152 Hz) ppm; no resolvable 207Pb−31P coupling could be observed in the 207Pb{1H} NMR spectrum. This is comparable to the 207Pb signal reported in [{2{Pb{C(iPr2PS)}}-6-{CH2(iPr2PS)}}C5H3N]2 (δ 2197 ppm).12 Low-temperature 31P NMR measurements of compounds 9−12 have been carried out; the signals remained unchanged, suggesting that no fluxional behavior is present in 9− 12. X-ray Structures. The molecular structures of compounds 4−6 and 9−12 are shown in Figures 1−7, respectively. Selected bond distances (Å) and angles (deg) of compounds 4−6 and 9− 12 are given in Table 1−3. Compound 4 is a centrosymmetric dimer in the solid state with Li2N2 rhombus and coordinating with two Et2O molecules (Figure 1). The lithium atom is bonded to the ligand in a N,S-chelating fashion and coordinated to one Et2O molecule with a distorted-tetrahedral geometry. The lithium atom is bonded to one sulfur atom and one nitrogen atom from the quinolyl ring to form a six-membered LiNCCPS metallacycle. The Li−Nquinolyl bond distance of 2.039(4) Å is comparable to those found in [Li{(S−PiPr2CH)(SPiPr2CH2)C5H3N-2,6}(Et2O)].12 The Li−S bond distances of 2.421(4) and 2.600(4) Å suggest that one of the Li−S bonds is a S→Li coordinate bond while the other is a Li−S σ bond. The Li−S bond distances in 4 are comparable to those found in [Li{(S− PiPr2CH)(SPiPr2CH2)C5H3N-2,6}(Et2O)] (2.393(1) and 2.556(2) Å).12 Compound 4 features an elongation of the P−S bond (2.009(9) Å) and a shortening of the P−C bond (1.733(2) Å) distance in comparison with those in the neutral ligand

CH2(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2) (P−C = 1.828(2) Å and P−S = 1.961(6) Å), which is due to a dipolar resonance in the presence of the metal center.22 Compound 5 is a monomeric magnesium complex in the solid state (Figure 2). The magnesium atom is bonded to two monoanionic ligands in an N,S-chelating fashion with a distorted-tetrahedral geometry. The magnesium atom is bonded to two sulfur atoms and nitrogen atoms from the quinolyl ring to form two six-membered MgNCCPS metallacycles. The average Mg−Nquinolyl bond distance of 2.083 Å is comparable to those found in [Mg{(S−PiPr2CH)2C5H3N-2,6}].12 The average Mg− S bond distance of 2.443 Å is shorter than those found in [Mg{(S−PiPr2CH)2C5H3N-2,6}] (2.518 Å),12 [o-C6H11PS3Mg (THF) 2 ] (2.644 Å), 23 and [{MgOH}{(μ-S)(μ-N t BuP(NHtBu)2]6 (2.623 Å).24 Similar to the case for compound 4, compound 5 also features an elongation of the P−S bond (average 2.018 Å) and a shortening of the P−C bond distance (1.730 Å) in comparison with those of the neutral ligand CH2(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2) (P−C = 1.828(2) Å and P−S = 1.961(6) Å), which is also due to a dipolar resonance in the presence of the metal center.22 From the solid-state structure of compound 5, it is noteworthy that there is a 3.310 Å aromatic πstacking interaction between the two quinolyl rings.25 Compound 6 is polymeric in the solid state (Figure 3). The potassium atom is bonded to the sulfur atom and nitrogen atom of the ligand and coordinated to the quinolyl carbon atoms of two ligands and the methine carbon of another ligand. The average K−C distance of 3.251 Å is slightly longer than those in [K{η5-C5H4(SiMe3)}]∞ (3.027 Å)26 and in [K{η5-C5H4R(DME)}]∞ (3.080 Å; R = (+)-neomenthyl),27 indicating that 2587

an aromatic π interaction between the anionic ligands and potassium ion is present. The K−N distance of 2.825 Å is comparable to that of 2.870 Å in [{{K{2-C5H4N(NSiMe3)}(12crown-4)}2}·2PhMe]28 and 2.787 Å in [{K{N(SiMe3)2}}2].29 It is noteworthy that the potassium atom is stabilized by a hard nitrogen atom and a soft sulfur atom as well as carbon atoms from the ligands without coordination to any solvent molecules. This is rarely found in the literature.30 Compound 9 consists of two germanium atoms bridged by two methanediide carbon atoms, forming a 1,3-Ge2C2 fourmembered ring (Figure 4). The two quinolyl nitrogen atoms of the ligand coordinate to the trigonal-pyramidal germanium atom to form GeCCN four-membered rings. These two GeCCN rings and the Ge2C2 group, as a base, form an “open-box” structure framework. The angle sum of the Ge2C2 ring of 357.8° indicates that the Ge2C2 ring is almost planar. The sum of angles at the two germanium centers are 255.5 and 251.0°, which is consistent with a stereoactive lone pair of electrons on each germanium center. The average Ge−N bond distance of 2.039 Å and the average Ge−C bond distance of 2.122 Å are comparable to those found in 1,3-[Ge{C(Pri2PNSiMe3)(2-Py)}]2 (Ge−N = 2.060 Å; Ge−C = 2.118 Å)19 and [{2-CH(iPr2PNSiMe3)-6-CH(iPr2P NSiMe3}C5H3NGe{2-{C(iPr2PNSiMe3)Ge}-6-CH2(iPr2P NSiMe3}C5H3N] (Ge−N = 2.044 Å; Ge−C = 2.093 Å).20 The average P−S bond distances of 1.958 Å in 9 is similar to that of 1.961 Å in neutral CH2(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2).

CONCLUSION To summarize, the monoanionic lithium, magnesium, and potassium salts derived from 2-quinolyl-linked (thiophosphosphorano)methane have been synthesized and characterized. The monolithium salt can be used as a ligand transfer reagent to synthesize a series of low-valent group 14 1,3dimetallacyclobutanes. The structures of all compounds have been characterized by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy.

EXPERIMENTAL SECTION

General Procedures. All manipulations were carried out under an inert atmosphere of dinitrogen gas by standard Schlenk techniques. Solvents were dried over and distilled from CaH2 (hexane) and/or Na (Et2O, toluene, and THF). Sn{N(SiMe3)2}2 and Pb{N(SiMe3)2}2 were prepared according to the literature procedures.32 2-Methylquinoline, chlorodiisopropylphosphine, sulfur, nBuLi (1.6 M in hexane), nBu2Mg (1.0 M in heptane), GeCl2·(dioxane), PbCl2, and KtBuO were purchased from Aldrich Chemical Co. and used without further purification. The 1H, 13C{1H}, 31P{1H}, 119Sn{1H}, and 207Pb{1H} spectra were recorded on a Bruker 400 spectrometer. The NMR spectra were recorded in CDCl3 and THF-d8, and the chemical shifts are relative to SiMe4 for 1H and 13C{1H} and to 85% H3PO4, SnMe4, and PbMe4 for 31 1 P{ H}, 119Sn{1H}, and 207Pb{1H}, respectively. Preparation of CH2(iPr2PS)(C9H6N-2) (3). To a mixture of 2methylquinoline (6.75 mL, 50.0 mmol), TMEDA (7.50 mL, 50.0 mmol), and Et2O (200 mL) was added dropwise nBuLi (34.5 mL, 55 mmol) at 0 °C. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 h and was then added dropwise to a cooled (−90 °C) solution of iPr2PCl (7.95 mL, 50.0 mmol) in Et2O (30 mL). The mixture was stirred at −90 °C for 30 min and at room temperature for 18 h. The mixture was then filtered, and the volatiles were removed under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified as a yellow oil by distillation under reduced pressure (0.01 mmHg, bp 118 °C). A solution of 2 (10.74 g, 41.41 mmol) in THF (30 mL) was added slowly to a solution of sulfur (1.32 g, 41.41 mmol) in THF (10 mL) at room temperature. The solution was stirred at 60 °C for 6 h, and a yellow solution was obtained. The resultant solution was filtered and concentrated; compound 3 was obtained as colorless crystals.

Preparation of [Li(Et2O){CH(iPr2P−S)(C9H6N)}]2 (4). To a solution of 3 (2.64 g, 9.06 mmol) in THF (50 mL) was added nBuLi (6.8 mL, 10.88 mmol) slowly at −90 °C. The colorless solution turned orange immediately. It was stirred at room temperature for 12 h, and a red solution was formed. All the volatiles in the reaction mixture were removed under reduced pressure, and the residue was extracted with Et2O (20 mL) and hexane (20 mL).

X-ray Crystallography. Single crystals were sealed in Lindemann glass capillaries under nitrogen. X-ray data of 2−8 were collected on a Rigaku R-AXIS II imaging plate using graphite-monochromatized Mo Kα radiation (λ = 0.71073 Ǻ ) from a rotating-anode generator operating at 50 kV and 90 mA. Crystal data are summarized in Tables 4 and 5 (Supporting Information). The structures were solved by direct phase determinations using the computer program SHELXTL-PC33 on a PC 486 and refined by full-matrix least squares with anisotropic thermal parameters for the non-hydrogen atoms. Hydrogen atoms were introduced in their idealized positions and included in structure factor calculations with assigned isotropic temperature factor calculations. Full details of the crystallographic analysis of 3−6 and 9−12 are given in the Supporting Information.
