Common organometallic ligands Organometallic Compounds 1. Complexes with metal-carbon s bonds 2. Metal complexes of CO 3. Complexes of p-bound Ligands 1. Complexes with metal-carbon s bonds Generation of LnM- With high valent transition metals, π-donation becomes important. M-O-C angles approaching 120 or even 180 °are common. Linear alkoxide have sometime be considered to be isoelectronic with the Cp ligand. Depending on the metal and other ligands, the nature of the CO ligand in LnM-CO can vary. - If L are good π acids or the complex is cationic, then σ-donation will be more important (A) - If the L are σ-donors or the complex is anionic, then the metal will be a strong π-donor. (C) Summary. Electronic ans steric properties of typical phosphines. Chelating phosphinesChelating phosphines are widely used to control structure and reactivity. Chelating diphosphines preferentially coordinate in cis fashion, while 2 monophosphines would adopt a trans geometry.Natural Ligand Bite Angle (βn): The ligand preferred P-M-P angle for a chelating diphosphine. This can be determined from x-ray structures or by molecular modeling. (Chem. Rev., 2000, 100, 2741-2769) Another example Bonding?
