Abstract

A series of molecular group 2 polyphosphides has been synthesized by using air-stable [Cp*Fe(eta(5)-P-5)] (Cp*=C5Me5) or white phosphorus as polyphosphorus precursors. Different types of group 2 reagents such as organo-magnesium, mono-valent magnesium, and molecular calcium hydride complexes have been investigated to activate these polyphosphorus sources. The organo-magnesium complex [((BDI)-B-Dipp-Mg(CH3))(2)] ((BDI)-B-Dipp={[2,6-(Pr2C6H3NCMe)-Pr-i](2)CH}(-)) reacts with [Cp*Fe(eta(5)-P-5)] to give an unprecedented Mg/Fe-supramolecular wheel. Kinetically controlled activation of [Cp*Fe(eta(5)-P-5)] by different mono-valent magnesium complexes allowed the isolation of Mg-coordinated formally mono- and di-reduced products of [Cp*Fe(eta(5)-P-5)]. To obtain the first examples of molecular calcium-polyphosphides, a molecular calcium hydride complex was used to reduce the aromatic cyclo-P-5 ring of [Cp*Fe(eta(5)-P-5)]. The Ca-Fe-polyphosphide is also characterized by quantum chemical calculations and compared with the corresponding Mg complex. Moreover, a calcium coordinated Zintl ion (P-7)(3-) was obtained by molecular calcium hydride mediated P-4 reduction.
