The photocatalytic alkene-migrative chain elongation reaction of 2-phosphinostyrenes with aldehydes under mild conditions in response to blue light was demonstrated. A broad range of aldehydes, both aliphatic and aromatic, participated in this reaction to afford alkene-phosphine oxides in a -selective manner. Mechanistic experiments suggested the formation of benzophospholene-based ylide intermediates via photocatalytic cyclization of phosphinostyrenes followed by solvent-mediated proton transfer under base-free reaction conditions.

Article Synopsis
  • * In the complex [(μ-O){Rh(cod)}(μ-O){Au(PPh)}][BF] (1), the μ-oxo ligand demonstrated enough Lewis basicity to coordinate with another gold species, leading to the formation of a new complex (2).
  • * Conversely, when lithium was added to complex 1, it resulted in the elimination of [Au(PPh)] due to theμ-oxo ligand's weak Lewis basicity, suggesting the formation of a pentanuclear species (3) before [Au(PPh)] dissociated.
