Intramolecular reactions between isocyano and iminophosphorane functions yield species containing an embedded 1,3,2-diazaphosphetidine ring, as result of the [2 + 2] cycloaddition of the primary reactive product, the cyclic carbodiimide, with a second unit of reactant. DFT studies reveal a first rate-determining step entailing a [2 + 1] cycloaddition involving the isocyanide carbon atom and the P═N double bond, with the further intervention of a dipolar precursor of the intermediate carbodiimide. The 1,3,2-diazaphosphetidine ring of the final products is shown to be hydrolytically and thermally labile.

P(v) iminophosphorane compounds are accessed electrochemical oxidation of commercially available P(iii) phosphines, including mono-, di- and tri-dentate phosphines, as well as chiral phosphines. The reaction uses inexpensive bis(trimethylsilyl)carbodiimide as an efficient and safe aminating reagent. DFT calculations, cyclic voltammetry, and NMR studies provide insight into the reaction mechanism.

Article Synopsis
  • Azophosphines were synthesized using -aryl-(trimethylsilyl)diazenes and RPCl, leading to new compounds called heterocyclic iminophosphoranes (NHIPs) that resemble cyclic carbenes and are versatile in their chemical compatibility.
  • NHIPs showed a range of basicity values in acetonitrile, with some having σ-donor strengths similar to known reagents, indicating strong electron-donating properties, and reacted easily with different substances to yield interesting chemical structures.
  • The research highlights the potential applications of NHIPs in synthetic chemistry due to their easy synthesis, adjustable properties, and ability to stabilize reactive species, aiming for future uses in various chemical

We report on the synthesis and characterization of three iron(III) phosphasalen complexes, [Fe (Psalen)(X)] differing in the nature of the counter-anion/exogenous ligand (X =Cl , NO , OTf ), as well as the neutral iron(II) analogue, [Fe (Psalen)]. Phosphasalen (Psalen) differs from salen by the presence of iminophosphorane (P=N) functions in place of the imines. All the complexes were characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, UV/Vis, EPR, and cyclic voltammetry.
