Heterotopic As,S,P and As,S,As Ligands: Synthesis and Theoretical Studies

Abstract

The heterotopic As,S,P ligands 1-AsPh2-2-StBu-3-PPh2-C6H3 (2) and 1-AsPh2-2-SH-3-PPh2-C6H3 (4) and dinucleating As,S,As ligand 1,3-(AsPh2)2-2-StBu-C6H3 (3) have been synthesized and characterized. The structural motif of these compounds suggests great potential for their use as monodentate, bidentate chelating, bidentate bridging, and tridentate ligands.
