Notes:
The bis(1,2,3,4,5-pentamethyl-1,3-cyclopentadien-1-yl)phosphanes 3-7 are formed in good yields by the reaction of the halogenophosphanes 2a or 2b with the appropriate nucleophile. Following another route, the dialkylaminobis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)phosphanes 11a-c have been synthesized by the treatment of dichloro(dialkylamino)phosphanes with two equivalents of (pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)lithium. The compounds 3-11 have been characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and 3, 5, 6, and 11a have also been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The molecular structure of 11a is governed by steric congestion, which typically would lead to a parallel arrangement of the two pentamethylcyclopentadienyl ligands at the phosphorus atom. However, surprisingly, the crystal structure of the (dimethylamino)phosphane 11a, exhibits a tilted, rather than a parallel, conformation of the pentamethylcyclopentadienyl groups [tilt angle: 130.6(1)°].
