Diphenyl(2-triethoxysilylphenyl)phosphine (1 h; Scheme 4)
A 100 ml three-necked flask equipped with a magnetic stir bar, a
rubber septum and a reflux condenser was charged with NaOAc
(1.30 g, 15.8 mmol) and Pd(OAc)2 (17.5 mg, 0.07 mmol) and was
evacuated and refilled with argon three times before adding N,N-
dimethylacetamide (35 ml), 1-bromo-2-iodobenzene (2.50 ml,
19.5 mmol) and diphenylphosphine (2.5 ml, 19.5 mmol). The reac-
tion mixture was stirred at 130 °C for three days. The reaction mix-
ture was cooled to room temperature and diluted with water
(30 ml) and extracted with CHCl3 (20 ml × 3). The combined organic
extracts were dried over Na2SO4. The filtrate was concentrated in
vacuo, and purified by recrystallization from ethanol to give a yel-
low solid. Further purification was done using flash chromatogra-
phy (1:2 EtOAc–hexane) to yield a white precipitate of (2-
bromophenyl)diphenylphosphine in 92% yield.
An oven-dried 100 ml Schlenk tube equipped with a magnetic
stir bar was evacuated and refilled with argon three times before
adding a solution of (2-bromophenyl)diphenylphosphine (0.78 ml,
6.1 mmol) in THF (30 ml) under argon atmosphere. The reaction
Schlenk tube was cooled to À78 °C and a solution of n-BuLi in hex-
ane (1.6 M, 6.1 mmol) was added dropwise slowly. After the addi-
tion was complete, the reaction mixture was stirred at the same
temperature for 1 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with Si
(OEt)4 (3.10 ml, 6.7 mmol) at À78 °C. The resulting mixture was
gradually warmed to ambient temperature for 4 h. The mixture
Diphenyl(3-dimethylphenylsilylphenyl)phosphine (1d). Yield 1.01 g (51%).
