Abstract
This thesis describes the synthesis and characterization of monomeric and polymeric gold(I), silver(I) and platinum(II) complexes containing diphosphine dicarboxamide and pyridine carboxamide donor ligands. The major focus of the project was to characterize these complexes in the solid state using X-ray crystallography. Many of the complexes were also characterized in solution by NMR spectroscopy and electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy.
Chapter one serves as an overall introduction to the topic. Chapter two describes the preparation and characterization of gold(I) and silver(I) complexes with the chiral Trost ligand; R,R-trans-1,2-C6H10(NHCO-2-C6H4PPh2)2 …
