A Convenient Synthetic Protocol to 1,2-Bis(dialkylphosphino)ethanes
نویسندگان
چکیده
1,2-Bis(dialkylphosphino)ethanes are readily prepared from the parent phosphine oxides, via a novel sodium aluminium hydride/sodium hydride reduction protocol of intermediate chlorophosphonium chlorides. This approach is amenable to multi-gram syntheses, utilises readily available and inexpensive reagents, and benefits from a facile non-aqueous work-up in the final reductive step.

The complex OsO4.(S,S)-1,2-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl)ethane-1,2-diamine is an effective reagent for the desymmetrisation of meso-1,2-bis(3,6-dihydro-2H-pyran-2-yl)ethanes by asymmetric dihydroxylation; this process, whose sense of diastereoselectivity depends on substitution and stereochemistry, has been exploited in the synthesis of a C-linked analogue of allolactose.

A copper/N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalyzed oxidative vicinal diphosphination of styrenes with diphenyl(trimethylsilyl)phosphine proceeds in the presence of LiOtBu and a pyridine N-oxide/MnO2 combined oxidant to deliver the corresponding 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethanes (DPPEs) in good yields. The present copper catalysis can provide access to the DPPE-type ligands directly from the relati...

Structural data for four closely related dinuclear nickel hydride complexes have been compared in order to gain insight into the factors governing the Ni-H-Ni geometries. The derivatives [(dippm)2Ni2X2](mu-H) [dippm = 1,2-bis(diisopropylphosphino)methane] were found to contain a linear Ni-H-Ni bridge, whereas the derivatives [(dcpm)2Ni2X2](mu-H) [dcpm = 1,2-bis(dicyclohexylphosphino)methane] we...
متن کاملSynthesis of 1,2-biphenylethane based single-molecule diodes.
We have described the synthesis of novel biphenylethane-based wires for molecular electronics. Exceptional single-molecule diode behavior was predicted for unsymmetrically substituted biphenylethane derivatives, synthesized here using the so far unexplored unsymmetrically substituted 1,2-bis(4-bromophenyl)ethanes as key intermediates, which were obtained from the corresponding tolane precursor ...
