Reacting nickel(ii)perchlorate with a bidentate P,N-ligand in methanol leads to P,C-bond cleavage and gives a five-coordinate nickel complex wherein the nickel(ii) site is coordinated by a tridentate P,N,P-ligand and a bidentate N,C-ligand. The carbanion of the latter is the result of the P,C-bond cleaving process. The diamagnetic nickel(ii) complex was characterized by means of elemental analysis, NMR spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and X-ray structure analysis.

Unusual cleavage of P-C and C-H bonds of the P2 N2 ligand, in heteroleptic [Ni(P2 N2 )(diphosphine)](2+) complexes under mild conditions, results in the formation of an iminium formyl nickelate featuring a C,P,P-tridentate coordination mode. The structures of both the heteroleptic [Ni(P2 N2 )(diphosphine)](2+) complexes and the resulting iminium formyl nickelate have been characterized by NMR spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were employed to investigate the mechanism of the P-C/C-H bond cleavage, which involves C-H bond cleavage, hydride rotation, Ni-C/P-H bond formation, and P-C bond cleavage.

ESI-FTICR-MS studies on gas phase fragmentation reactions of ArPd(PPh3)2I complexes.

Gas-phase fragmentation reactions of [ArPd(PPh3)2]+ were studied by electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (ESI-FTICR-MS). The results of sustained off-resonance irradiation collision-activated dissociation (SORI-CAD) experiments provide detailed insights into mechanisms for the gas-phase fragmentation reactions of these complex ions. The PC bond cleavage mediated by palladium is investigated in the gas phase.

Photolysis of the equilibrium mixture (silox)3NbPMe3 (1) + H2 (1-3 atm) right arrow over left arrow (silox)3Nb(Heq)2 (2e, tbp)/(silox)3Nb(Ht)2 (2t, pseudo-Td) + PMe3 causes PC bond cleavage. Depending on conditions, various amounts of (silox)3Nb=CH2 (3), (silox)3Nb=PH (5-H), (silox)3Nb=PMe (5-Me), (silox)3Nb=P(H)Nb(silox)3 (9, precipitated if N2 is present; X-ray), (silox)3NbH (4, active only through equilibration with 2e,t), and CH4 are produced. Addition of PH3 to 1 provides an independent route to 5-H; its deprotonation gives [(silox)3NbP]Li (6), whose methylation yields 5-Me.
