Phosphabenzamidine [mes-NH-C(Ph)=P-mes) (1) and phosphaformamidine (mes-NH-CH=P-mes) (4) ligands have been synthesized and characterized. The conjugate bases of 1 and 4 coordinate by each bridging three Cu(I) ions, forming hexa- and tetranuclear clusters Cu6[mes-N=C(Ph)-P-mes]3Cl4Li(THF)2 (3) and Cu4[mes-N=CH-P-mes]4 (5), respectively. Both clusters have been fully characterized using 1H NMR, 31P NMR, and X-ray crystallography. Complexes 3 and 5 exhibit a previously unknown coordination mode of phosphaamidinates, which are far less studied than their well-known amidinate counterparts.

Reaction of alkali metals (Li, Na, K) with mesityldichlorophosphane (MesPCl2, Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2) in ethereal solvents leads to formation of the corresponding mesitylphosphanides MPHMes in good purity and yield. 31P NMR spectroscopic studies in deuterated solvents strongly support a mechanism of the reaction that involves protonation/disproportionation steps in which the solvent is the only possible proton source. Li(thf)(tmeda)PHMes (1), [Na(tmeda)(μ-PHMes)] ∞ (2), and [K(pmdeta)(μ-PHMes)]2 (3) (tmeda = N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine, pmdeta = N,N,N′, N″,N″-pentamethyldiethylenetriamine) were obtained; in the solid state, 2 forms zigzag chains while 3 is a dimeric compound.
