Abstract
The aniline derivative 1-(NMe 2)-4-MeC 6H 4 on ortho-mercuration followed by reaction with ArTeCl 3 (Ar = C 6H 5, 4-MeOC 6H 4 or 4-EtOC 6H 4) gives 1-(NMe 2)-2- (ArTeCl 2)-4-MeC 6H 3 which on reduction with sodium metabisulphite gives hybrid telluride ligands—telluroamines ( 1–3). These newly synthesized asymmetric tellurides were characterized by elemental analysis, typical reaction with MeI, IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectra, molecular weight and conductance measurements. The (Te, N) ligands react with Na 2MCl 4/K 2MCl 4 (M = Pt or Pd) resulting in MCl 2·L (L = telluroamines) type complexes. These complexes are monomeric, non-electrolyte and diamagnetic, indicating a square-planar arrangement of ligands around the metal, which is supported by electronic spectra. 1H NMR data in conjunction with IR spectra suggest that these telluroamines behave as bidentate ligands in the present complexes.
