Small bite-angle diphosphines — Synthesis and structure of low-valent complexes of bis(di-<i>ortho</i>-tolylphosphino)methane (dotpm) and related ligands
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The coordination chemistry of bis(di-ortho-tolylphosphino)methane (dotpm) has been studied. It is an excellent chelating ligand and a range of low-valent mononuclear complexes have been prepared; cis-[M(CO)4(η2-dotpm)] (M = Cr, Mo, W; 1–3), [CpRuCl(η2-dotpm)] (4), and cis-[MX2(η2-dotpm)] (M = Pt, X = Cl, Br, I; 5a–5c, M = Pd, X = Cl; 6). The backbone protons are relatively acidic and can be deprotonated using n-BuLi or LiN(SiMe3)2. Subsequent alkylation by RX (X = halogen; R = Me, Et, CH2Ph) affords cis-[M(CO)4(η2-Rdotpm)] (M = Cr, Mo, W, R = Me; 7–9, M = Mo, W, R = Et, CH2Ph; 12–15), [CpRuCl(η2-Medotpm)] (10), and cis-[PtI2(η2-Medotpm)] (11). Thermolysis of cis-[Mo(CO)4(η2-Medotpm)] (8) yields what is believed to be the coordinately and electronically unsaturated complex [Mo(CO)3(η2-Medotpm)] (16), suggesting that derivatives of dotpm (cone angle 194°) are bulky enough to stabilize a 16-electron complex. Crystal structures of 2, 3, 7–9, 13, and 14 have been determined (diphosphine bite angles ranging from 66.58(3)° to 70.96(5)°.Key words: diphosphine, transition metal, bulky, carbonyl, ortho-tolyl.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
