The synthesis of a new trisbenzylsilanephosphine P{(o-C6H4CH2)SiMe2H}3 (1) is shown to proceed with high yields from P(o-tolyl)3. Compound 1 coordinates to the Rh and Ir dimers [MCl(COD)]2 (M = Rh, Ir) in a tetradentate or tridentate fashion, depending on the strict exclusion of water. The dimeric compounds [ClM(SiMe2CH2-o-C6H4)2P(o-C6H4-CH2SiMe2H)]2, 2Rh and 2Ir, feature a tetradentate coordination of the starting ligand with P and two Si atoms as well as a non-classical agostic Si-H group. The presence of adventitious water in the solvents leads to the formation of two new complexes [(μ2-Cl)2M2(SiMe2CH2-o-C6H4)2P(o-C6H4-CH2SiMe2OSiMe2CH2-o-C6H4-)P(SiMe2CH2-o-C6H4)2], 3Rh and 3Ir, which feature a siloxane bridge through Si-H bond breaking in 2. Reaction of [RhCl(COD)]2 with the bisbenzylsilanephosphine PhP{(o-C6H4CH2)SiMe2H}2 leads to the formation of compound 4Rh which features also a dimeric structure with the SiPSi ligand coordinated through the two silicon atoms, one of which occupies the apical position of a square-pyramidal geometry in the solid state, while the second is disposed equatorially trans to π-donor Cl. Finally, bidentate coordination of a PSi ligand is achieved by reaction of [RhCl(COD)]2 with Ph2P{(o-C6H4CH2)SiMe2H} which leads to the monometallic species [RhCl(SiMe2CH2-o-C6H4-PPh2)2], 5Rh, incorporating two chelating PSi ligands and maintaining a Cl ligand.

The kinetics of quinuclidine displacement of BH3 from a wide range of Lewis base borane adducts have been measured. Parameterization of these rates has enabled the development of a nucleofugality scale (NFB), shown to quantify and predict the leaving group ability of a range of other Lewis bases. Additivity observed across a number of series R′3-nRnX (X = P, N; R′ = aryl, alkyl) has allowed the formulation of related substituent parameters (nfPB, nfAB), providing a means of calculating NFB values for a range of Lewis bases that extends far beyond those experimentally derived. The utility of the nucleofugality parameter is explored by the correlation of the substituent parameter nfPB with the hydrolyses rates of a series of alkyl and aryl MIDA boronates under neutral conditions. This has allowed the identification of MIDA boronates with heteroatoms proximal to the reacting center, showing unusual kinetic lability or stability to hydrolysis.

Detailed 31P{1H} NMR spectroscopic investigations provide deeper insight into the complex, multi-step mechanisms involved in the recently reported photocatalytic arylation of white phosphorus (P4). Specifically, these studies have identified a number of previously unrecognized side products, which arise from an unexpected non-innocent behavior of the commonly employed terminal reductant Et3N. The different rate of formation of these products explains discrepancies in the performance of the two most effective catalysts, [Ir(dtbbpy)(ppy)2][PF6] (dtbbpy=4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine) and 3DPAFIPN. Inspired by the observation of PH3 as a minor intermediate, we have developed the first catalytic procedure for the arylation of this key industrial compound. Similar to P4 arylation, this method affords valuable triarylphosphines or tetraarylphosphonium salts depending on the steric profile of the aryl substituents.
