The secondary phosphite selenide, CpFe(CO)2P(Se)(O(i)Pr)2, as an organometalloligand in heterometallic M-Se-P-Fe(Cp)-type complexes [M = Cr(0), W(0), Pd(II), Pt(II), Au(I)].
The neutral metalloligand [CpFe(CO)2P(Se)(O(i)Pr)2] (Cp = η(5)-C5H5), which contains the rare secondary phosphite selenide moiety, reacts with different metal complex precursors to form six new heterobimetallic complexes containing M-Se-P-Fe(Cp) bond connectivity. The complexes [M(CO)5{CpFe(CO)2P(Se)(O(i)Pr)2}] (M = Cr, 1; M = W, 2), [MCl2{CpFe(CO)2P(Se)(O(i)Pr)2}2] (M = Pd, 3; M = Pt, 4), [Au4Cl4{CpFe(CO)2P(Se)(O(i)Pr)2}2], 5, and [AuI{CpFe(CO)2P(Se)(O(i)Pr)2}], 6, are all heterometallic, neutral, dinuclear (1, 2, 6), trinuclear (3, 4), and hexanuclear (5) complexes. The complexes were all prepared from straightforward substitution reactions (1-5) or as an adduct, 6. All new complexes were characterized by (1)H, (31)P, (77)Se NMR, infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction.
