Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of platinum(II) and palladium(II) complexes of the type [PtX2(nPr-N(Ph2P)2)] (X = Cl, I) and [PdCl2(R-N(Ph2P)2)] {R = nPr, p-OMe(C6H4)} containing aminodiphosphine P,P-bidentate ligands is described. Complexes of the type [PtCl2(R-N(Ph2P)2)] (where R = benzyl, 2-picolyl and nPr) catalyzed the hydroformylation of 1-octene, albeit at low activities and slightly elevated regioselectivities toward the linear aldehyde, when compared with analogous compounds containing small bite angles.
