Dichloro[1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane]nickel a coordination complex with the formula NiCl2(dppp); where dppp is the diphosphine 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane. It is used as a catalyst in organic synthesis. The compound is a bright orange-red crystalline powder.
Structure and properties
While the electronic and solid-state structure of the chloride congener is not known (due to low solubility in common analytical solvents), several studies have been carried out on the bromo and iodo derivatives.{{cite journal |last1=Van Hecke |first1=Gerald R. |last2=Horrocks, Jr. |first2=William DeW. |title=Ditertiary Phosphine Complexes of Nickel.

A Planar-Tetrahedral Equilibrium |journal=Inorganic Chemistry |date=1966 |volume=5 |issue=11 |pages=1968–1974 |doi=10.1021/ic50045a029}} The complexes display a temperature-dependent interconversion between square-planar and tetrahedral geometries (diamagnetic and paramagnetic) in polar organic solvents (Keq between 1-3.68, depending on the solvent and temperature). In contrast, dichloro(1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane)nickel adopts a static square-planar (diamagnetic) structure in solution.
Preparation
NiCl2(dppp) is prepared by combining equal molar portions of nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate with 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane in 2-propanol.{{cite journal| last1= Kumada|first1=Makota|last2=Tamao|first2=Kohei|last3=Sumitani|first3=Koji | title = Phosphine-Nickel Complex Catalyzed Cross-Coupling of Grignard Reagents with Aryl and Alkenyl Halides: 1,2-Dibutylbenzene | volume = 58 | page = 127 | year = 1978 |doi = 10.15227/orgsyn.058.0127|journal=Org.
