Abstract
But-3-enyl and pent-4-enyl methyl chalcogenide ligands have been found to co-ordinate to transition metals through the chalcogen atom alone in a monodentate fashion, or as bidentate ligands binding through both the chalcogen atom and the alkene moieties. The metallacycles formed on chelation have been fully characterised and an X-ray diffraction study of [PtBr2{MeS(CH2)3CHCH2}] is reported: the crystals are orthorhombic, of space group Pbca with Z= 8 in a unit cell of dimensions a= 15.098(9), b= 13.245(3), and c= 10.299(2)Å The principal internuclear distances are Pt–Br 2.448(4) and 2.434(4), Pt–S 2.286(7), and Pt–C 2.136(20) and 2.196(19)Å. Inversion of configuration at the co-ordinated sulphur atom is observed at moderate temperatures and has been studied by dynamic n.m.r. spectroscopy. The methyl pent-4-enyl sulphide ligand is observed to isomerise upon co-ordination to palladium(II).Keywords
