Kessler The Exploration of Metal Ligand Cooperation and Bond Activations by Late Transition Metal Complexes Containing the PNpyrP Ligand 1904 .txt text/plain 315 9 28 Overall, the ability of late transition metal complexes containing the (PNpyrP) ligand to undergo reversible structural changes was investigated as a means to leverage metal-ligand cooperation for the activation of small molecules and typically inert bonds. This dissertation describes the synthesis of late transition metal complexes containing a new PNP ligand comprised of a central pyrrole unit and di-iso-propylphosphine donors, bis[(dimethylamino)methyl]pyrrole, ((PNpyrP)H), 1.With this ligand, multiple transmetallation reagents including [(PNpyrP)Li]2 (7), (PNpyrP)Tl (8), and [(PNpyrP)Ag]2 (12) were synthesized in order to afford group 10 metal complexes of the form (PNpyrP)MCl (M = Ni (2), Pd (3), Pt (4)) as well as (PNpyrP)Ir(COD) (6) and (PNpyrP)Ru(PPh3)Cl (12). cache/mp48sb41q6c.txt txt/mp48sb41q6c.txt
