Dichloro[1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane]nickel a coordination complex with the formula NiCl2(dppp); where dppp is the diphosphine 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane. It is used as a catalyst in organic synthesis. The compound is a bright orange-red crystalline powder.
Structure and properties
The compound has idealized C2v symmetry, ignoring orientation of the phenyl groups. The Nickel has square planar geometry. The compound is soluble in non-polar organic solvents and is diamagnetic.
Preparation
NiCl2(dppp) is prepared by combining equal molar portions of nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate with 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane in 2-propanol.[2]
- Ni(H2O)6Cl2 + dppp → NiCl2(dppp) + 6 H2O
Reactions
NiCl2(dppp) in an effective catalyst for coupling reactions such as the Kumada coupling[2] and Suzuki reactions (example below).[3] It also catalyzes other reactions that convert enol ethers, dithioacetals, and vinyl sulfides to olefins.[4][5]
