The 5- to 8-membered cyclic fluorophosphites L5-8 have been prepared from the corresponding chlorophosphites which are derived from dihydroxyarenes or bis(trimethylsiloxy)arenes. Ligand L5 is very sensitive to hydrolysis but L6-8 are much more kinetically robust. The coordination chemistry of L5-8 has been explored with Mo(0), Pt(0) and Rh(i) and it is shown that the π-acceptor properties of L5-8 increase with decreasing ring size. The IR spectra and X-ray crystal structures of the [Mo(CO)4L2] complexes show that L5-8 lie between PF3 and P(OAr)3 in terms of their σ/π-bonding properties. The [PtL4] complexes are readily prepared from [Pt(nbe)3] and 4 equiv. of L5-8 whereas equilibrium mixtures of PtLx(nbe)y species form when 2 equiv. of L5-8 are added to [Pt(nbe)3]. The CO substitution reactions of [Rh2Cl2(CO)4] with L5-8 to give [Rh2Cl2L4] are evidence of the PF3-like ligand properties of L5-8. The trends in the properties of L5-8 are analysed in terms of their proximity to PF3 or P(OPh)3.

The incorporation of alkoxy ligands within a range of alkoxyfluoroboranes and dialkoxyfluoroboranes results in fluoroborane reagents with attenuated Lewis acidity and increased ability to donate fluoride ion(s) when compared to boron trifluoride itself. Pinacolatoboron fluoride (pinBF), prepared in situ from BF3·OEt2 and bis(O-trimethylsilyl)pinacol, has been identified as an efficient fluoride donor which allows highly stereoselective SN1-type epoxide ring-opening (with retention of configuration) of a range of trans-β-methyl-substituted aryl epoxides to give the corresponding syn-fluorohydrins. The substrate scope of this transformation is more broad than the analogous protocol using boron trifluoride alone.
Poly(4-vinylpyridine) catalyzed chemoselective O-TMS protection of alcohols and phenols and N-Boc protection of amines

Poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PVP) acts as an efficient and reusable catalyst for the selective and efficient trimethylsilylation of alcohols and phenols with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) and N-tert-butoxycarbonylation of amines with (Boc)2O. All reactions were performed under mild conditions in good to high yields. Iranian Chemical Society 2012.
