[reaction: see text] New monodentate phosphite ligands have been developed from axially chiral biphenols, which show excellent enantioselectivity in the Rh(I)-catalyzed hydrogenation of dimethyl itaconate. The new chiral ligand system is suitable to create libraries and possesses fine-tuning capability.

An uncommon example of stable mixed-ligand zinc phosphite with genuine pores has been synthesized by using zinc metal, inorganic phosphite acid, thio-functionalized O-donor (2,5-thiophenedicarboxylate, TPDC), and tetradentate N-donor [1,2,4,5-tetrakis(imidazol-1-ylmethyl)benzene, TIMB] units assembled into one crystalline structure according to a hydro(solvo)thermal method. This is a very rare case of a metal phosphite incorporating both N- and O-donor ligands. The tetradentate TIMB linker bound to zinc atoms of the isolated zincophosphite hexamers to form a 3D open-framework structure by crosslinking structural components of 1D chains and 2D layers.

Metal-catalyzed hydroformylation and hydrogenation heavily rely on ligands, among which phosphorous ligands play a pivotal role. This personal account presents a selection of three distinct classes of phosphorous ligands, namely, monodentate meta-substituted phosphinites, bis-phosphites, and P-chiral supramolecular phosphines, developed in our group. The synthesis of these ligands, isolation, characterization, and their performance in transition metal-catalyzed hydroformylation, isomerizing hydroformylation, and asymmetric hydrogenation of olefins is summarized.

The first example of a thio-functionalized zincophosphite material (NTOU-2S) incorporating the 2,5-thiophenedicarboxylate (TPDC) ligands was synthesized using a hydro(solvo)thermal method and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Interestingly, the perspective view of the crystal structure for NTOU-2S is similar to our previous report of NTOU-2 but the carboxylate organic ligands (TPDC for NTOU-2S; 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate, BDC, for NTOU-2) in both compounds adopt different types of bis-monodentate coordination models (the unusual cis bonding versus a trans linkage) to bridge the metal atoms of inorganic tubes in the formation of large-channel zincophosphite frameworks, resulting in structural and functional diversities. The thiophene-based compound also displayed higher thermal stability and removal ability for the softer Hg cations from water solutions than the performance of sulfur-free NTOU-2.

A family of complexes of the formula -[RuCl(L)(R-pybox)] (R-pybox = (,)-Pr-pybox, (,)-Ph-pybox, L = monodentate phosphonite, PPh(OR), and phosphinite, L = PPh(OR), ligands) were screened in the catalytic asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone, observing a strong influence of the nature of both the R-pybox substituents and the L ligand in the process. The best results were obtained with complex -[RuCl{PPh(OEt)}{(,)-Ph-pybox}] (), which provided high conversion and enantioselectivity (up to 96% enantiomeric excess, ) for the reduction of a variety of aromatic ketones, affording the ()-benzylalcohols.
