description | The synthesis of the triarylphosphine, P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub> containing a SF<sub>5</sub> group, has been achieved. The experimental and theoretical studies showed that P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub> is a weaker σ-donor when compared with other substituted triarylphosphines, which is consistent with the electron-withdrawing effect of the SF<sub>5</sub> moiety. The studies also revealed a moderate air stability of the phosphine. The σ-donor capabilities of P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub> were estimated from the phosphorus-selenium coupling constant in SeP(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub> and by DFT calculations. The behavior of P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub> as ligand has been investigated by the synthesis of the iridium and rhodium complexes [MCl(COD){P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>}], [MCl(CO)<sub>2</sub>{P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>}<sub>2</sub>] (M = Ir, Rh), or [Rh(<i>µ</i>-Cl)(COE){P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>}]<sub>2</sub>, and the molecular structures of [IrCl(COD){P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>}] and [Rh(<i>µ</i>-Cl)(COE){P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub>}]<sub>2</sub> were determined by single X-ray diffraction. The structures revealed a slightly larger cone angle for P(<i>p</i>-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>SF<sub>5</sub>)<sub>3</sub> when compared to other <i>para</i>-substituted triarylphosphines. |
