Abstract

The synthesis and characterization of [M(Bu₃P⁺etpE)Br](BF₄)₂ (where M = Ni or Pd and Bu₃P⁺etpE = [(Bu₃PCH₂CH₂)P(CH₂CH ₂PEt₂)₂]⁺) and [M(etpPBu₃⁺)Br]Br(BF₄)₄ (where M = Ni or Pd and etpPBu₃⁺ = {PhP[CH₂CH₂P(CH₂CH₂PBu ₃)₂]₂}⁴⁺) are described. The structure of [Ni(etpPBu₃⁺)Br]Br(BF₄)₄ has been determined by X-ray diffraction. Treatment of [Pd-(Bu₃P⁺etpE)Br](BF₄)₂ with AgBF₄ in acetonitrile produced [Pd(Bu₃P⁺etpE)(CH₃CN)](BF₄) ₃. The latter compound has also been characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods. Electrochemical studies indicate that this compound and its closely related methyl analog, [Pd(Me₃P⁺etpE)(CH₃CN)](BF₄) ₃, are catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of CO₂ to CO in acidic dimethylformamide solutions. Kinetic and mechanistic studies of this catalytic reaction are reported.
