Abstract

•A new dicarboxamide–diphosphine ligand dpppa is reported.•A digold(I) complex forms a supramolecular polymer.•A disilver(I) complex forms a coordination polymer.•All compounds take part in hydrogen bonding.

The dicarboxamide–diphosphine ligand N,N′-bis(2-diphenylphosphinoethyl)phthalamide, dpppa, which is prepared from 2-diphenylphosphinoethylamine and phthaloyl chloride, forms the binuclear gold(I) complex [Au2Cl2(μ-dpppa)], 1, and polymeric complex [{Ag2(μ-O2CCF3)2(μ-dpppa)}n], 2. The ligand and both complexes 1 and 2 undergo further association through hydrogen bonding to give supramolecular polymer or network structures.

Graphical abstractThe new dicarboxamide–diphosphine ligand N,N’-bis(2-diphenylphosphinoethyl)phthalamide, dpppa, forms the complexes [Au2Cl2(μ-dpppa)] and [{Ag2(μ-O2CCF3)2(μ-dpppa)}n], whose supramolecular polymeric structures are determined.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
