Abstract
AbstractThe novel type of seven‐membered cyclic diphosphines, namely 1,3,6‐azadiphosphacycloheptanes, has been synthesized by condensation of 1,2‐bis(phenylphosphino)ethane, formaldehyde, and primary amines (aniline,p‐toluidine, benzylamine, and 5‐aminoisophthalic acid) as a mixture of rac‐ and meso‐stereoisomers. The structures of rac‐stereoisomers ofN‐tolyl andN‐(3′,5′‐dicarboxyphenyl)‐substituted diphosphines were investigated by X‐ray crystal structure analyses. The stereoisomers ofN‐(3′,5′‐dicarboxyphenyl)‐substituted compound were separated at a preparative scale, and their platinum(II) dichloride complexes were obtained. The corresponding meso‐isomer readily formsP,P‐chelate complex with [PtCl2(cod)], whereas the rac‐stereoisomer forms oligomeric complex. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
