Article Abstract

Carbones are divalent carbon(0) species that contain two lone pairs of electrons. Herein, we have prepared the first known stable and isolable free bis-(carbone) pincer framework with a well-defined solid-state structure. This bis-(carbone) ligand is an effective scaffold for forming monometallic (Ni and Pd) and trinuclear heterometallic complexes with Au-Pd-Au, Au-Ni-Au, and Cu-Ni-Cu configurations. Sophisticated quantum-theoretical analyses found that the metal-metal interactions are too weak to play a significant role in upholding these multi-metallic configurations; rather, the four lone pairs of electrons within the bis-(carbone) framework are the main contributors to the stability of the complexes.

A facile synthesis of a binuclear Ag complex of a bis(carbone) ligand and its application as a carbone-transfer agent for the generation of other transition-metal complexes of Au (), Ni (), and Pd () is presented. Complex was synthesized through multiple synthetic routes under mild reaction conditions using the tetracationic [H][OTf·Cl] precursor salt, the dicationic [H][OTf] ylide salt, and the free ligand . The first two synthesis routes require no prior isolation of the air-, moisture-, and temperature-sensitive free ligand , thus affording complex with high yield and purity.
