1,1,2,2-Tetra-kis(di-o-tolyl-phosphino)ethane.


ABSTRACT: The complete molecule of title compound, C(58)H(58)P(4), is generated by a crystallographic twofold rotation axis that passes through the center of the C(methine)-C(methine) bond of length 1.582?(4)?Å. The C-P bond lengths are 1.8824?(19) and 1.8991?(19)?Å. The P-C-P angle of 109.69?(9)° is essentially equal to the expected value of 109.5° for a tetra-hedral C atom. Although the C(methine)-P-C(aromatic) bond angles range from 102.67?(9) to 107.04?(9)°, the C(aromatic)-P-C(aromatic) bond angles of 96.72?(9) and 97.29?(9)° are significantly smaller. The steric demands of the o-tolyl groups cause deviations from the bond lengths and angles reported for its phenyl analog.
