Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity Toward Nickel(II) of the New Saturated 14-Membered P2S2 Macrocycles Cis-1,8-Diphenyl-1,8-Diphospha-4,12-Dithia-Cyclotetradecane and Trans-1,8-Diphenyl-1,8-Diphospha-4,12-Dithia-Cyclotetradecane
The new saturated 14-membered P2S2 macrocycle 1,8-diphenyl-1,8-diphospha-4,12-dithiacyclot (14P(2)S(2)) has been synthesized and the cis- and transisomers have been isolated and characterized. The complexing behavior of these two isomers toward Ni(II) has been tested, and the crystal structure of the [Ni(trans-14P(2)S(2))(CH3CH)] (ClO4)(2) complex has been solved.
