Abstract

The reactions between the fluorine-containing ligand tris(2,6-difluorophenyl)phosphite and the transition metal species [{eta(6)-1,4-CH3C6H4CH(CH3)(2)} RuCl2](2), [Cp*RhCl2](2), [RhCl(CO)(2)](2), [PtCl2(PEt(3))](2) and PtCl2 yield the complexes {eta(6)-1,4-CH3C6H4CH(CH3)(2)} RuCl2{P(O-2,6-C6H3F2)(3)}, Cp*RhCl2{P(O-2,6-C6H3F2)(3)}, trans-RhCl(CO {P(O-2,6-C6H3F2)(3)}(2), trans-PtCl2 (PEt(3)) {PO-2,6-C6H3F2)(3)} and trans-PtCl2{P(O-2,6-C6H3F2)(3)}(2), respectively. The molecular structure of trans-PtCl2(PEt(3)) {P(O-2,6-C6H3F2)(3)} has been determined by single-crystal X-ray crystallography.
