A series of thiolate gold(I) derivatives bearing water soluble phosphanes--namely sodium triphenylphosphane monosulfonate (TPPMS), sodium triphenylphosphane trisulfonate (TPPTS), 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) and 3,7-diacetyl-1,3,7-triaza-5-phosphabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (DAPTA)--is reported and the compounds studied for their luminescence properties in the solid state. Two of these derivatives, [Au(SMe(2)pyrim)(PTA)] and [Au(SBenzoxazole)(DAPTA)], are also structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. Strong antiproliferative effects are observed for most of the compounds in the human ovarian carcinoma cell lines (A2780/S) and its cisplatin-resistant variant (A2780/R), which depend on both the type of thiolate and phosphane ligands. ICP-MS studies were also performed to evaluate the influence of the gold uptake on the cytotoxic potency of the compounds.

A novel chiral ligand, named MAdPHOS, bearing a P-stereogenic phosphane and a diadamantyl phosphane linked by a NH bridge has been synthesized. This bulky, C-symmetric, PNP ligand has been prepared from enantiopure -butylmethyl aminophosphane and was obtained as a crystalline solid. The NH/PH tautomerism, air-stability, and σ-donor capacity of MAdPHOS have been assessed herein.

The copolymerization of ethylene with polar monomers presents a significant challenge. While palladium catalysts have shown promise, nickel catalysts are more economical but suffer from poor activity. Previous studies suggest that the isomerization step involved in the nickel-catalyzed polymerization may influence the catalyst activities.

The reactions of LAlH (L = HC(CMeNAr), Ar = 2,6-PrCH) (1) with diphenylphosphane oxide [PhP(O)H], diphenylphosphinamide [PhP(O)NH], and diaryl/alkyl phosphane [(RO)P(O)H (R = Ph, or Pr)] afford their corresponding compounds with compositions LAl(H)OP(Ph) (2), LAl[OP(Ph)] (3), LAl{[N(H)P(O)(Ph)][OP(Ph)]} (4), LAl(OPr) (5), and LAl(OPh) (6), respectively. These reactions probably undergo a process of dehydrogenation coupling, deaminating dehydrogenation coupling, or chain-breaking coupling. It is noteworthy to mention that the reaction of compound 1 with 2 equiv.

We applied a classifier method to predict palladium catalysts for the formation of nonalternating polyketones via the copolymerization of CO and ethylene; current examples are limited to using phosphine sulfonate and diphosphazane monoxide supporting ligands. With the reported workflow, we discovered two new classes of palladium complexes capable of achieving the synthesis of nonalternating polyketones with a lower CO content than those made by known palladium catalysts. Our results show that we doubled the number of classes of palladium compounds that can catalyze the formation of this type of polymer.

The enantioselective domino Heck/cross-coupling has emerged as a powerful tool in modern chemical synthesis for decades. Despite significant progress in relative rigid skeleton substrates, the implementation of asymmetric Heck/cross-coupling cascades of highly flexible haloalkene substrates remains a challenging and and long-standing goal. Here we report an efficient asymmetric domino Heck/Tsuji-Trost reaction of highly flexible vinylic halides with 1,3-dienes enabled by palladium catalysis.
