Abstract

(S)-N,S-Bis(diphenylphosphino) cystein methyl ester (bdppcys 3) is obtained from the reaction of chlorodiphenylphosphine with (S)-cystein methyl ester hydrochloride in the presence of Et3N as (S)-N-diphenylphosphinoalanine methyl ester (dppal 1) and (S)-N-diphenylphosphinomethionine methyl ester (dppmet 2). Compounds 1-3 show different coordination behaviour to [PdCl2(cod)]. Ligand 1 and [PdCl2(cod)] give an unexpected chloro-bridged binuclear complex trans-[PdCl(mu -Cl)(dppal-P)](2) 4. Compound 2 interacts with [PdCl2(cod)] to give a chelate complex cis-[PdCl2(dppmet-S,P)] 5. Reaction of 3 with [PdCl2(cod)] leads to an unstable chelate complex cis-[PdCl2(dppcys-P,P')] 6, which gradually decomposes into a novel sulfur-bridged binuclear complex trans-[PdCl(mu -S)-dppcys-P)](2) 7 and a chloro-bridged binuclear complex trans-[Pd(mu -Cl)(P(O)Ph-2-P)(P(OH)Ph-2-P)](2) 8.
