We could access for the first time a 5-phosphasemibullvalene derivative via quantitative and selective photochemical di-π-methane rearrangement from the corresponding phosphabarrelene. Due to the striking analogy between phosphorus and carbon, this hitherto unknown transformation of vinyl-phosphorus species provides the possibility to prepare novel, chiral and conformationally rigid organophosphorus cage compounds in a straightforward manner.

The [4+2] cycloaddition of 2-(2'-pyridyl)-4,6-diphenyl-λ -phosphinine with the highly reactive dienophile hexafluoro-2-butyne has been studied and the first pyridyl-functionalized 1-phosphabarrelene was obtained and structurally characterized. Although monodentate CF -1-phosphabarrelenes show only a poor coordination ability, the chelating nature of the novel P,N-hybrid ligand gives access to various transition-metal complexes. Upon irradiation with UV light, the pyridyl-functionalized 1-phosphabarrelene undergoes a rather selective di-π-methane rearrangement in the coordination sphere of the metal center, leading to the formation of a complex based on a hitherto unknown pyridyl-functionalized 5-phosphasemibullvalene derivative.
