Phosphines are among the most widely used ligands, catalysts, and reagents. Current synthetic approaches to phosphines are dominated by nucleophilic displacement reactions with organometallic reagents. Here, we report a radical-based approach to phosphines that proceeds by a cross-electrophile coupling of chlorophosphines and redox-active esters. The reaction allows for the synthesis of a broad range of substituted phosphines that were not readily attainable with the present methods. Our experimental and DFT computational studies also clarified the catalytic, autocatalytic, and inhibitory roles of additives and intermediates, as well as the mechanistic details of the photocatalytic and zinc-mediated redox modes that can have implications for the mechanistic interpretation of other cross-electrophile coupling reactions.

Unprecedented chemoselective reductions of phosphine oxides to phosphines proceed smoothly in the presence of catalytic amounts of specific Br?nsted acids. By utilizing inexpensive silanes, e.g., PMHS or (EtO)2MeSiH, other reducible functional groups such as ketones, aldehydes, olefins, nitriles, and esters are well-tolerated under optimized conditions.

Novel catalytic reductions of tertiary and secondary phosphine oxides to phosphines have been developed. Using tetramethyldisiloxane (TMDS) as a mild reducing agent in the presence of copper complexes, PO bonds are selectively reduced in the presence of other reducible functional groups (FGs) such as ketones, esters, and olefins. Based on this transformation, an efficient one pot reduction/phosphination domino sequence allows for the synthesis of a variety of functionalized aromatic and aliphatic phosphines in good yields.
