An efficient and practical protocol for completely regioselective and highly stereoselective synthesis of vinyldiazaphosphonates from N-heterocyclic phosphine (NHP) and allenes via phospha-Michael/intramolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction has been developed. This transformation enabled the synthesis of valuable densely functionalized vinyldiazaphosphonates with a β-, γ-unsaturated ester moiety under mild reaction conditions. Synthetic utility of vinyldiazaphosphonates was demonstrated by a series of synthetic manipulations.

N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands possess the ability to stabilize metal-based nanomaterials for a broad range of applications. With respect to metal-hydride nanomaterials, however, carbenes are rare, which is surprising if one considers the importance of metal-hydride bonds across the chemical sciences. In this study, we introduce a bottom-up approach leveraging preexisting metal-metal m-center-n-electron (mc-ne) bonds to access a highly stable cyclic(alkyl)amino carbene (CAAC) copper-hydride nanocluster, [(CAAC)6Cu14H12][OTf]2 with superior stability compared to Stryker's reagent, a popular commercial phosphine-based copper hydride catalyst.

Metal nanoclusters stabilized by N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands have attracted increasing interest for their special structures and diverse applications. However, developing synthetic strategies and extending the database of NHC-protected nanoclusters are still challenging tasks. In this work, a novel and rapid synthetic method is developed to prepare AuAg alloy nanocluster ligated by carbene based on the reactivity of nanoclusters.

The reactivity of the phosphinoborenium cation supported by a 1,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazolin-2-ylidene ligand toward small molecules was explored. The phosphinoborenium cation exhibited dual Lewis acid-base properties due to the presence of the Lewis acidic boron center and the Lewis basic phosphido ligand connected by a covalent bond. The reaction of the title cation with CO led to the insertion of a CO molecule into the P-B bond.

Article Synopsis
  • Electron-rich phosphines are important in transition metal-based catalysis, with zwitterionic groups like phosphorus ylides enhancing their donor strength.
  • Recent research introduces a new ligand, N-heterocyclic olefin phosphines with sulfonyl substituents (sNHOP), which twists a double bond to create a zwitterionic structure.
  • This new ligand shows improved donor strength and has proven effective in gold-catalyzed reactions, surpassing traditional NHOP ligands in performance, indicating strong potential for future catalytic applications.

Hydrogen isotope exchange (HIE) via C-H activation constitutes an efficient method for the synthesis of isotopically-enriched compounds, which are crucial components of the drug discovery process and are extensively employed in mechanistic studies. A series of iridium(I) complexes, bearing a chelating phosphine-N-heterocyclic carbene ligand, was designed and synthesized for application in the catalytic HIE of challenging N- and O-aryl carbamates. A broad range of substrates were labeled efficiently, and applicability to biologically-relevant systems was demonstrated by labeling an ʟ-tyrosine-derived carbamate with excellent levels of deuterium incorporation.
