Abstract

Reaction of Ph2PCl with alanine methyl ester affords the chiral aminophosphine Ph2NHCH(CH3)C(O) OCH3 (dppal) which reacts with M(COD)Cl-2 to give Pt(dppal)(2)Cl-2 (1) and Cl(dppal)PdCl2Pd(dppal)Cl (2). The X-ray structures of dppalO, 1 and 2 an reported. The amino acid containing ligand forms intramolecular H bonds with the C-O-C or C=O oxygen atoms within the ligand and with the cis chlorides in the complexes. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science S.A.
