Bis[diphenylphosphino]methane and its bridge-substituted analogues as chemically non-innocent ligands for H 2 activation

Type: article
Abstract: Deprotonation of fac-[(κ2P,P-Ph2PCH(R)PPh2)Mn(CO)3Br] (R = H, Me, Ph) produces the corresponding diphosphinomethanide derivatives fac-[(κ3P,C,P-Ph2PC(R)PPh2)Mn(CO)3], which are prone to activate H2 to form the hydride complexes fac-[(κ2P,P-Ph2PCH(R)PPh2)Mn(CO)3H]. The substitution of the dppm bridge improves dramatically the reaction efficiency and this was rationalized by DFT calculations.
