N-Phosphine oxide substituted imidazolylidenes (PoxIms) have been synthesized and fully characterized. These species can undergo significant changes to the spatial environment surrounding their carbene center through rotation of the phosphine oxide moiety. Either classical Lewis adducts (CLAs) or frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) are thus formed with B(C6 F5 )3 depending on the orientation of the p...

aluminum phosphide (alp) is a highly effective rodenticide which is used as a suicide poison. herein, a 24 year-old man who’d intentionally ingested about 1liter of alcohol and one tablet of alp is reported. acute myocardial infarction due to alp poisoning has been occurred secondary to aip poisoning. cardiovascular complications are poor prognostic factors in alp poisoning

The 3+2 cycloaddition reaction of 1-(4-phenylphenacyl)-1,10-phenanthrolinium ylide 4 with activated alkynes gave pyrrolo[1,2- 4a][1,10]phenanthrolines 6a-d. The "one pot" synthesis of 6a,b,d from 4, activated alkenes, Et(3)N and tetrakis-pyridine cobalt (II) dichromate (TPCD) is described. The helical chirality of pyrrolophenanthrolines 6b-d was put in evidence by NMR spectroscopy.

The Mitsunobu reaction is renowned for its mild reaction conditions and broad substrate tolerance, but has limited utility in process chemistry and industrial applications due to poor atom economy and the generation of stoichiometric phosphine oxide and hydrazine by-products that complicate purification. A catalytic Mitsunobu reaction using innocuous reagents to recycle these by-products would ...

Well-behaved and reproducible n-type doping of Si and Sir -$e, by phosphine during gas-source molecular beam epitaxy is demonstrated. No significant reduction of growth rate of these materials in the presence of phosphine is recorded in the doping range of 1017-10’9 cmp3 and perfect surface morphologies are observed. The incorporated P atoms are fully activated without ex situ annealing. The do...

The title compound, [Ru(C(10)H(15))Cl(C(12)H(10)ClP)(C(17)H(20)NP)], is a half-sandwich complex of Ru(II) with the chloro-diphenyl-phosphine ligand formed from the diphenyl-piperidinophosphine and chlorine of the precursor complex [Ru(η(5)-C(5)Me(5))(κ(1)P-Ph(2)PNC(5)H(10))Cl(2)] by an unexpected reaction with NaBH(4). The complex has a three-legged piano-stool geometry, with Ru-P bond lengths ...

Phosphine-based detection strategies for both nitroxyl (HNO) and S-nitrosothiols (RSNO) were investigated and compared. Phosphorus NMR studies show that azaylides derived from HNO or organic RSNO efficiently participate in subsequent reductive ligation required for fluorescence generation in properly substituted substrates. S-Azaylides derived from biological RSNO containing free amine and carb...

Phosphine has been known to science since the birth of modern chemistry. WHO reports that the technical product usually has a foul odour, like "fishy" or "garlicky" because of the presence of substituted phosphines and diphosphine (P2H4). Many medico-legal autopsy cases have been reported positive for aluminium phosphide even though there was neither any suspicion of consuming aluminium phosphi...
