Platinum-catalyzed asymmetric alkylation of secondary phosphines: enantioselective synthesis of p-stereogenic phosphines.

The chiral Pt catalyst precursor Pt((R,R)-Me-Duphos)(Ph)(Cl) mediated alkylation of racemic secondary phosphines PHR(R') with benzyl halides in the presence of base to give enantioenriched tertiary phosphines PR(R')(CH2Ar). Similar reactions of bis(secondary) phosphines yielded chiral diphosphines in up to 93% ee and with good rac/meso diastereoselection.

Synthesis and characterization of phosphido-monolayer-protected gold nanoclusters.

Gold-phosphido-monolayer-protected clusters (MPCs) of 1-2-nm diameter, Au(x)(PR2)y, analogues of the well-known thiolate materials Au(x)(SR)y, were prepared by NaBH4 reduction of a mixture of HAuCl4.3H2O and a secondary phosphine PHR2 in tetrahydrofuran/water. In comparison to the Au-thiolate MPCs, fewer of the larger phosphido groups are required to cover the surface, and the Au-P bond is not cleaved as readily in reactions with small molecules as is its Au-S counterpart. 31P NMR spectroscopy provides a direct method to study cluster formation and the interaction of the phosphido ligand with the gold surface.

Gold(I) phosphido complexes: synthesis, structure, and reactivity.

Deprotonation of the phosphine complexes Au(PHR(2))Cl with aqueous ammonia gave the gold(I) phosphido complexes [Au(PR(2))](n)() (PR(2) = PMes(2) (1), PCy(2) (2), P(t-Bu)(2) (3), PIs(2) (4), PPhMes (5), PHMes (6); Mes = 2,4,6-Me(3)C(6)H(2), Is = 2,4,6-(i-Pr)(3)C(6)H(2), Mes = 2,4,6-(t-Bu)(3)C(6)H(2), Cy = cyclo-C(6)H(11)). (31)P NMR spectroscopy showed that these complexes exist in solution as mixtures, presumably oligomeric rings of different sizes. X-ray crystallographic structure determinations on single oligomers of 1-4 revealed rings of varying size (n = 4, 6, 6, and 3, respectively) and conformation. Reactions of 1-3 and 5 with PPN[AuCl(2)] gave PPN[(AuCl)(2)(micro-PR(2))] (9-12, PPN = (PPh(3))(2)N(+)). Treatment of 3 with the reagents HI, I(2), ArSH, LiP(t-Bu)(2), and [PH(2)(t-Bu)(2)]BF(4) gave respectively Au(PH(t-Bu)(2))(I) (14), Au(PI(t-Bu)(2))(I) (15), Au(PH(t-Bu)(2))(SAr) (16, Ar = p-t-BuC(6)H(4)), Li[Au(P(t-Bu)(2))(2)] (17), and [Au(PH(t-Bu)(2))(2)]BF(4) (19).

Stereochemistry of palladium-mediated synthesis of PAMP-BH3: retention of configuration at P in formation of Pd-P and P-C bonds.

Treatment of Pd((S,S)-Chiraphos)(o-An)(I) (3, o-An = o-MeOC6H4) with either enantiomer of highly enantioenriched PH(Me)(Ph)(BH3) (1) gave the phosphido-borane complex Pd((S,S)-Chiraphos)(o-An)(P(Me)(Ph)(BH3)) (4) with retention of configuration at phosphorus, as shown by X-ray crystal structure determinations for both diastereomers of 4. Heating either diastereomer of 4 with diphenylacetylene gave Pd((S,S)-Chiraphos)(PhCCPh) (5) and P(o-An)(Me)(Ph)(BH3) (2) with retention of configuration at phosphorus.

Palladium-catalyzed asymmetric phosphination: enantioselective synthesis of a p-chirogenic phosphine.

The racemic secondary phosphine PH(Me)(Is) (1, Is = 2,4,6-(i-Pr)3C6H2) was coupled with PhI in the presence of NaOSiMe3 and the catalyst Pd((R,R)-Me-Duphos)(Ph)(I) (3) to give P(Ph)(Me)(Is) (2) in up to 78% ee. The intermediate phosphido complex Pd((R,R)-Me-Duphos)(Ph)(P(Me)(Is)) (5a,b) was observed as a mixture of diastereomers by low-temperature 31P NMR. The rate of interconversion of 5a,b by phosphorus inversion is greater than or equal to that of reductive elimination, which suggests that the enantiodetermining step occurs after Pd-P bond formation.
