A Geometrically Constrained Tricyclic Phosphine: Coordination, Ring Expansion by Insertion of CO into a P–C Bond, and Lewis Acid Initiated Formation of an Oligocyclic Molecule with a P2C22 backbone
journal contribution
posted on 2020-03-23, 19:35 authored by Alexander Brand, Philipp Wegener, Alexander Hepp, Werner UhlThe geometrically constrained tricyclic
phosphine 3b has two annulated five-membered PC4 heterocycles with
the P atom in a bridgehead position. Treatment with (THF)M(CO)5 (M = Cr, Mo, and W) afforded M(CO)5 complexes 4–6, of which the Cr and Mo compounds
showed in heat the unusual insertion of a carbonyl C atom into a P–C
bond of one of the strained PC4 rings. Ring expansion yielded
a six-membered PC5 heterocycle with an exocyclic CO
group and afforded new phosphine ligand 8 that contains
annulated five- (1×) and six-membered (2×) rings. Its Mo
complex (7) was obtained by treatment of starting phosphine 3b with excess Mo(CO)6 in hot toluene. Phosphine 8 was removed from the metal atom by addition of the diphosphine
Ph2PC2H4PPh2. Treatment
of 8 with AlBr3 resulted in enolization and
an increased nucleophilicity of the β-C atom, which causes dimerization
by P–C bond formation to yield a barrelane type molecule (9).
