Description/Abstract

Complexes of the nitrates of beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium with the phosphine oxides OPPh3, Ph2P(O) CH2P(O) Ph-2, and o-C6H4(P(O) Ph-2)(2) have been prepared and characterised by analysis and IR spectroscopy and the structures of [Be(OPPh3)(2)(NO3)(2)], [Mg(OPPh3)(2)(NO3)(2)], [Ca{Ph2P(O) CH2P(O) Ph-2}(2)(NO3)(2)] and [Ca{o-C6H4(P(O) Ph-2)(2)}(2)(NO3)(2)] have been determined. The solution speciation has been probed by a combination of H-1, P-31{H-1} and Be-9 NMR spectroscopy and conductance measurements. The variation in speciation and stability from Be - Ba is interpreted in terms of changes in the charge/radius ratio of the cations - thus whilst Be and Mg interact strongly with the phosphinoyl ligands, strontium and especially barium have very limited affinity for these ligands, and the complexes are extensively dissociated in solution.
