The coordination chemistry of bis(di-ortho-tolylphosphino)methane (dotpm) has been studied. It is an excellent chelating ligand and a range of low-valent mononuclear complexes have been prepared; cis-[M(CO)4(η2-dotpm)] (M = Cr, Mo, W; 1–3), [CpRuCl(η2-dotpm)] (4), and cis-[MX2(η2-dotpm)] (M = Pt, X = Cl, Br, I; 5a–5c, M = Pd, X = Cl; 6). The backbone protons are relatively acidic and can be deprotonated using n-BuLi or LiN(SiMe3)2. Subsequent alkylation by RX (X = halogen; R = Me, Et, CH2Ph) affords cis-[M(CO)4(η2-Rdotpm)] (M = Cr, Mo, W, R = Me; 7–9, M = Mo, W, R = Et, CH2Ph; 12–15), [CpRuCl(η2-Medotpm)] (10), and cis-[PtI2(η2-Medotpm)] (11). Thermolysis of cis-[Mo(CO)4(η2-Medotpm)] (8) yields what is believed to be the coordinately and electronically unsaturated complex [Mo(CO)3(η2-Medotpm)] (16), suggesting that derivatives of dotpm (cone angle 194°) are bulky enough to stabilize a 16-electron complex. Crystal structures of 2, 3, 7–9, 13, and 14 have been determined (diphosphine bite angles ranging from 66.58(3)° to 70.96(5)°.Key words: diphosphine, transition metal, bulky, carbonyl, ortho-tolyl.

This is the first review dealing with the coordination chemistry of metal complexes with Girard's reagents and their hydrazones. The short introduction points out to chemical properties and significance of these organic compounds. The next section briefly describes synthetic methods for preparing complexes with Girard's reagents, as well as modes of coordination of these ligands. The last two extensive sections review the preparation, stereochemistry and structural characteristics of metal complexes with Girard's hydrazones, including some newer non-hydrazonic derivatives of Girard's reagents, also.

The preparations and X-ray crystal structures of the first transition metal complexes of 1,3-bis(8-quinolyloxy)propane (2) are described. The ligand acts as a trans-chelating N,N′-bidentate ligand in the three-coordinate silver(I) nitrate complex (3) and four-coordinate copper(II) chloride complex (4), but as an N,O,O′,N′-tetradentate ligand in the octahedral nickel(II) chloride complex (5).

Analysis of the weak interactions within the crystal structures of 33 complexes of various 4′-aromatic derivatives of 2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (tpy) shows that interactions that exceed dispersion are dominated, as expected, by cation⋯anion contacts but are associated with both ligand–ligand and ligand–solvent contacts, sometimes multicentred, in generally complicated arrays, probably largely determined by dispersion interactions between stacked aromatic units. With V(V) as the coordinating cation, there is evidence that the polarisation of the ligand results in an interaction exceeding dispersion at a carbon bound to nitrogen with oxygen or fluorine, an interaction unseen in the structures of M(II) (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ru and Cd) complexes, except when 1,2,3-trimethoxyphenyl substituents are present in the 4′-tpy.
