There is unceasing interest toward transformations of phosphine derivatives, which are facilitated by transition metals. We report a facile Pd(II)- and Pt(II)-assisted P–C bond cleavage in a luminescent 2-phenylbenzothiazole-based α-methylaminophosphine (PCN, 1). Specifically, reactions between 1 and [M(COD)Cl2] (M = Pd, Pt; COD = cycloocta-1,5-diene) in different solvents (methylene chloride, acetonitrile, pyridine, toluene) resulted in the formation of PPh2–, captured either as a bridging ligand in binuclear complexes with a {M2(PPh2)2} moiety or as an adduct to COD in [Pt2(PPh2COD)2Cl2]. The heterocyclic part transforms to annulated c-CN+ species with a 1,2-dihydroquinazoline cycle formed. In the presence of pyridine as a base, annulated form c-CN+ destabilizes and undergoes reverse cyclization transforming to deprotonated CN form. Quantum-chemical density functional theory (DFT) calculations predict that a crucial step in the reactions involves proton transfer from the N atom of the amino group of PCN to a neighboring molecule. A combination of high photophysical sensitivity of c-CN+ toward its immediate environment and rich structural capabilities in assembling (c-CN)22+ pairs in different crystal packings in a family of phases with the general formula (c-CN)2[M2(PPh2)2Cl4] allows one to fine-tune the luminescence properties of the latter. The results were rationalized as a variation of π–π intercationic spacings, which tunes the degree of excited-state charge transfer between c-CN+ cations. As a result, compounds with relatively short interplanar π–π-separation between the cations show a stronger charge-transfer-mediated bathochromic shift.
