Abstract

Chloride metathesis of [AuCl(HL)] [HL = Ph2P(O)NHPPh2] or [PdCl2(en)] (en = ethane-1,2-diamine) in CH3OH with either 1 (or 2) equivalents of [Ph2P(O)NP(E)Ph2] (E = S or Se) gave the neutral compounds [Au{Ph2P(O)NP(E)Ph2-E[hair space]}(HL)] or [Pd{Ph2P(O)NP(E)Ph2-E[hair space]}2(en)] respectively; the anionic ligands in these complexes adopt a new bonding mode and furthermore are involved in intramolecular N–H[hair space][hair space]· · ·[hair space][hair space]OP hydrogen bonding with HL or en.
