Abstract

The synthesis of a Schiff base-appended macrocycle \([\{\hbox {P}({\mu }\hbox {-}^{t}\hbox {BuN})\}_{2}(\hbox {O}-m-\hbox {C}_{6}\hbox {H}_{4}\hbox {CHNCH}_{2})_{2}]_{2}\) (1) containing cyclodiphosphazane moieties is described. Reactions of 1 with \(\hbox {H}_{2}\hbox {O}_{2}\) and elemental selenium yielded derivatives tetrakis(oxide) \([\{\hbox {P(O)}({\mu }\hbox {-}^{t}\hbox {BuN})\}_{2}(\hbox {O}-m-\hbox {C}_{6}\hbox {H}_{4}\hbox {CHNCH}_{2})_{2}]_{2}\) (2) and tetrakis(selenide)\([\{\hbox {P(Se)}(\mu \hbox {-}^{t}\hbox {BuN})\}_{2}(\hbox {O}-m-\hbox {C}_{6}\hbox {H}_{4}\hbox {CHNCH}_{2})_{2}]_{2}\) (3), in \(\sim \)80% yield. Tetragold complex \([\hbox {Au}_{4}\hbox {Cl}_{4}\{\{\hbox {P}( \mu \hbox {-}^{t}\hbox {BuN})\}_{2}(\hbox {O}-m-\hbox {C}_{6}\hbox {H}_{4}\hbox {CHNCH}_{2})_{2}\}_{2}\)] (4) was prepared by reacting 1 with [\(\hbox {AuCl}(\hbox {SMe}_{2})\)] in 1:4 molar ratio. All the compounds have been characterized by various spectroscopic techniques. The molecular structure of 3 was confirmed by single crystal X-ray analysis.
