Synthesis and Characterization of Metal Complexes Derived from a Trisphenolato Phosphine Ligand

We utilized the tripodal ligand (tris-(3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-phenyl)- phosphine) H3[O3P] to react with 1 equiv of AlR3 (R = Cl, Me, Et, iBu and OiPr). From NMR and X-ray data proved, we could give the stable Al(III) complexes [O3P-H]AlR (R = Cl, Me, Et and iBu). [O3P-H]AlR is a zwitterionic complexes. Because the phenolato phosphine ligand bond a proton at the phosphorous, and Al(III) coordinated three RO- (tris phenolate group) and one alkyl- substituent group. So the Al(III) metal could be carried -1 charge and the phosphorous could be carried +1 charge. When H3[O3P] reacted with AlR3, the original trisphenolato phosphine ligand ([O3P]3-) was changed into a trisphenoato phosphonium ligand ([O3P-H]2-).
The [O3P-H]AlMe in the trisphenoato phosphonium group has a proton, and we attempted to use a bese to deprotonate the acidic proton. We chose n-BuLi to react with [O3P-H]AlMe, and successfully gave {[O3P:]AlMe}- ionic complexe. In the {[O3P:]AlMe}- complexe, the lone pair electron of phenolato phosphine group is a nucleophile,It reacted with MeOTf of electrophile. The product of the reaction could give [O3P-Me]AlMe.In this reactions, the original trisphenoato phosphonium ligand ([O3P-H]2-) was changed into a new methyl trisphenoato phosphonium ligand ([O3P-Me]2-). We could utilize H3[O3P] to react with 1 equiv MeOTf in diethyl ether, and gave a new tripodal ligand {H3[O3P-Me]}OTf. Also, we utilized the {H3[O3P-Me]}OTf to react with 1 equiv of AlR3 (R = Cl, Me, Et and iBu). We gave that Al(III) complexes [O3P-Me]AlR (R = Cl, Me, Et and iBu).
