Popis: | The syntheses of the phosphane complexes M(CO)5PH3 (M = Mo, W), W(CO)5PD3, and W(CO)5PF3 and the results of X-ray structure analyses of W(CO)5PH3 and Mo(CO)5PCl3 are reported. Quantum-chemical DFT calculations of the geometries and M−P bond dissociation energies of M(CO)5PX3 (M = Cr, Mo, W; X = H, Me, F, Cl) have been carried out. There is no correlation between the bond lengths and bond dissociation energies of the M−P bonds. The PMe3 ligand forms the strongest and the longest M−P bonds of the phosphane ligands. The analysis of M−PX3 bonds shows that PCl3 is a poorer σ donor and a stronger π(P) acceptor than the other phosphanes. The energy decomposition analysis indicates that the M−P bonds of the PH3 and PMe3 complexes have a higher electrostatic than covalent character. The electrostatic contribution is between 56 and 66% of the total attractive interactions. The orbital interactions in the M−PH3 and M−PMe3 bonds have more σ character (65−75%) than π character (25−35%). The M−P bonds of the halophosph... |
