Zero-valent ML2 complexes of group 10 metals supported by terphenyl phosphanes†
Abstract
Bulky terphenyl phosphane ligands PMe2Ar′ (Ar′ = terphenyl group) facilitate the isolation of zero-valent bis-phosphane complexes of nickel, palladium and platinum. The former show coordination numbers greater than two in the solid state due to the existence of Ni–Carene interactions with the terphenyl fragment.
