Reactions of diphosphinohydrazines R鈥揘H鈥揘(PPh2)2 (R = tBu (1), Ph2P (3)) with some metalation reagents (Co[N(SiMe3)2]2, LiN(SiMe3)2, La[N(SiMe3)2]3, nBuLi, MeLi) were performed. Compound 1 was synthesized by the reaction of Ph2PCl with tert-butylhydrazine hydrochloride in 83% yield. This compound reveals temperature-dependent 31P NMR spectra due to hindered rotation about the P鈥揘 bonds. Complicated redox reaction of 1 with Co[N(SiMe3)2]2 proceeds with cleavage of the P鈥揘 and N鈥揘 bonds to form a binuclear cobalt complex [Co{HN(PPh2)2-魏2P,P鈥瞹2(渭-PPh2)]2 (2) demonstrating a short Co路路路Co distance of 2.3857(5) 脜, which implies a formal double bond between the Co atoms. Strong nucleophiles (nBuLi, MeLi) cause fragmentation of the molecules 1 and 3, while reactions of 3 with lithium and lanthanum silylamides give products of the NNP 鈫?NPN rearrangement [Li{Ph2P(NPPh2)2-魏2N,N鈥瞹(THF)2] (4) and [La{Ph2P(NPPh2)2-魏2N,N鈥瞹{N(SiMe3)2}2] (5), respectively. These complexes represent the first examples of a 魏2N,N鈥?bonding mode for the triphosphazenide ligand [(Ph2PN)2PPh2]鈭?/sup>. DFT calculations showed large energy gain (52.1 kcal/mol) of the [NNP]鈭?/sup> to [NPN]鈭?/sup> anion rearrangement.
