Synthesis of Anti-Cis-Phosphiranes

A method for the preparation of three-membered phosphoric heterocycles-phosphi-ranes by reaction of dilithium derivatives of tertiary phosphines with tetrachloromethane is described. The reaction is stereoselective and leads to the formation of anti-cis(meso)-2,3-diphenylphosphiranes. Phosphiranes were isolated as individual compounds and their structure was confirmed by 1H, 13C, and 31P NMR spectra, and mass spectra. The present method is simple and can be successfully used for the preparation of some types of phosphiranes that are inaccessible by other methods.

Synthesis of phosphiranes

Phosphiranes, three-membered phosphorus-containing heterocycles, have been prepared via reaction of tertiary phosphines dilithium derivatives with carbon tetrachloride. The elaborated method can be applied for preparation of some phosphiranes which are not easily accessible.

Synthesis, characterization and reactivity of tribenzylphosphine rhodium and iridium complexes

New rhodium and iridium complexes, with the formula [MCl(PBz 3)(cod)] [M = Rh (1), Ir (2)] and [M(PBz3) 2(cod)]PF6 [M = Rh (3), Ir (4)] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene), stabilized by the tribenzylphosphine ligand (PBz 3) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic methods. The molecular structures of 1 and 2 were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The addition of pyridine to a methanol solution of 1or 2, followed by metathetical reaction with NH4PF 6, gave the corresponding derivatives [M(py)(PBz3)(cod)] PF6 [M = Rh (5), Ir (6)]. At room temperature in CHCl3 solution, 4 converted spontaneously to the ortho-metallated complex [IrH(PBz3)(cod){η2-P,C-(C6H 4CH2)PBz2}]PF6 (7) as a mixture of cis/trans isomers via intramolecular C-H activation of a benzylic phenyl ring. The reaction of 3 or 4 with hydrogen in coordinating solvents gave the dihydrido bis(solvento) derivative [M(H)2(S)2(PBz3) 2]PF6 (M = Rh, Ir; S = acetone, acetonitrile, THF), that transformed into the corresponding dicarbonyls [M(H)2(CO) 2(PBz3)2]PF6 by treatment with CO. Analogous cis-dihydrido complexes [M(H)2(THF)2(py) (PBz3)2]PF6 (M = Rh, Ir) were observed by reaction of the py derivatives 5 and 6 with H2.
