Abstract
The well established and known chemistry of metal phosphides as nucleophilic and reactive precursors has been used as a suitable synthetic approach in the synthesis of 1,2-bis(butylphenylphosphino) ethane (bppe) (5) andcis-1,2-bis(butylphenylphosphino) ethylene (bppey) (6). Adducts of bridged and bis-chelated gold(I) with 5 and 6, as well as silver(I) with 5, have been prepared in moderate to good yields. These complexes have been characterised by solution NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry (FAB) and microanalysis in case of 10a, 10b and 11.
