Abstract

The title complex, [Au2Cl2(C26H21NP2)], has an intra­molecular Au⋯Au inter­action of 3.1669 (4) Å, but no inter­molecular Au⋯Au inter­actions in the solid state. The Cl—Au—P bond angle of 176.84 (7)° is slightly distorted from linearity. The P—C bond length to the phenyl group is shorter [1.810 (7) Å] than the P—C bond length [1.876 (7) Å] to the bridging carbon, indicative of the flexibility of the bidentate bite of the ligand. The C—C N fragment is essentially linear at 179.5 (9)° and the C N bond length of 1.125 (11) Å indicates predominantly triple-bond character. In the crystal packing, there are no hydrogen-bonding or aurophilic inter­actions between the mol­ecules.

Comment

Interest in the chemistry of the ligand bis(diphenylphosphane)acetonitrile, (dppm-CN), was recently rejuvenated with the facile preparation thereof starting with readily available acetonitrile (Braun et al., 2007). Development of its chemistry followed thereafter, including the observed sharp increase in acidity by the replacement of a proton with a cyano group on the bridging carbon atom of the related ligand dppm (Spannhoff et al., 2009, and references therein). We prepared dppm-CN through slight modification of the stoichiometric amounts used in the literature procedure (Braun et al., 2007). Acetonitrile was doubly deprotonated with n-BuLi (2 molar equivalents) to yield the proposed intermediate Li2[CHCN] (not isolated), which was treated in situ with Ph2PCl (2 molar equivalents) to form dppm-CN. In continuing our interest in dinuclear gold(I) complexes (Van Zyl, 2010), we report the first structural investigation of a gold(I) complex with the ligand dppm-CN. Complex (I) was formed in CH2Cl2 solution from the reaction between the ligand and [AuCl(tht)] (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) (molar ratio 1:2) (see Experimental). The solution 31P NMR spectrum of complex(I) showed a singlet peak resonating at δ = 34.8 p.p.m. for the two equivalent P atoms. Complex (I) can be compared with the related [(AuCl)2dppm] complex which exists as two polymorphs. The first polymorph (monoclinic) (Schmidbaur et al., 1977) contains an intramolecular Au···Au interaction of 3.351 (2) Å with no intermolecular Au···Au interaction, whilst the second polymorph (triclinic) (Healy, 2003) contains neither intra- (5.617 (3) Å) nor intermolecular Au···Au interactions. The cause for the structural difference between the two polymorphs can be found in two different conformational structures of the dppm ligand.

Experimental

Preparation and characterization of complex(I): A solution of [AuCl(tht)] (156 mg, 0.48 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 ml) was slowly added to a solution of dppm-CN (100 mg, 0.24 mmol) in dichloromethane (5 ml) and the mixture stirred for 45 minutes at room temperature. All solvent and tht were then removed under reduced pressure to give complex (I). Dry Et2O (3 x 2 ml) was used to wash the product which was then further dried in vacuo overnight. The product was obtained as a free-flowing off-white powder. Yield (185 mg, 0.21 mmol) 88%. Mp: 155–158 °C; Elemental analysis for complex C26H21Au2Cl2NP2 Found: C, 35.21; H, 2.28 requires C, 35.72; H, 2.42%. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3, 298 K) δH= 7.68–7.53 (m, 20H, Ph); 5.52 (t, 1H; CH, 2JP,H = 12.77 Hz). 31P NMR (101 MHz, CDCl3, 298 K) δP = 34.8 (s, 2P). IR (KBr, cm-1): 2243 ν(CN). ESI-MS: m/z 875 [M+]. Single crystals were obtained by slow diffusion of dry hexane into a saturated solution of dry dichloromethane.

Refinement

All non-hydrogen atoms are refined anisotropically. H atoms were calculated by geometrical methods and refined as a riding model. The Flack parameter (Flack, 1983) is used to determine chirality of the crystal studied, the value should be near zero, a value of one is the other enantiomer and a value of 0.5 is racemic. The Flack parameter was refined to 0.014 (8), confirming the absolute stereochemistry.

Special details

Experimental. Data was collected using a BRUKER CCD (charge coupled device) based diffractometer equipped with an Oxford low-temperature apparatus operating at 173 K. A suitable crystal was chosen and mounted on a glass fiber or nylon loop using Paratone oil for Mo radiation and Mineral oil for Copper radiation. Data were measured using omega and phi scans of 0.5° per frame for 30 s. The total number of images were based on results from the program COSMO where redundancy was expected to be 4 and completeness to 0.83Å to 100%. Cell parameters were retrieved using APEX II software and refined using SAINT on all observed reflections.Data reduction was performed using the SAINT software which corrects for Lp. Scaling and absorption corrections were applied using SADABS6 multi-scan technique, supplied by George Sheldrick. The structures are solved by the direct method using the SHELXS97 program and refined by least squares method on F2, SHELXL97, incorporated in SHELXTL.All H atoms were placed in calculated positions and refined using a riding model. C—H(aromatic) = 0.94 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) C—H (alaphatic) = 0.99 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) CH2 = 0.98 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) CH3 = 0.97Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(C) N—H = 0.86 (0.92)Å and Uiso(H) = 1.2 Ueq(N) O—H(alcohol) = 0.85Åand Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(O) O—H(acid) = 0.82 Å and Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(O)
Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
