Unprecedented metalated phosphonite boranes were prepared from PH-substituted precursors and silyl amides. Although potassium derivatives were thermally stable and could even be isolated and structurally characterised, lithiated analogues proved to be unstable towards self-condensation under cleavage of LiOR at ambient temperature. Reaction studies revealed that the metalated phosphonite boranes exhibit ambiphilic character. Their synthetic potential as nucleophilic building blocks was demonstrated in the synthesis of the first stannylated phosphonite representing a new structural motif in phosphine chemistry.

Gold-catalyzed Prins-type cyclizations are interesting strategies for synthesizing complex molecules with excellent diastereoselectivity. We developed a novel and efficient system for such processes (13 examples, ≤89% yield) and reported the first enantioselective version of a gold-catalyzed Prins-type cyclization using a new chiral TADDOL-based Au(I) phosphonite complex. After crystallization, highly enantiomerically enriched products were obtained with >99% ee.

Asymmetric Transfer Hydrogenation of Arylketones Catalyzed by Enantiopure Ruthenium(II)/Pybox Complexes Containing Achiral Phosphonite and Phosphinite Ligands.

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.

Emissive Iridium(III) Complexes with Phosphorous-Containing Ancillary.

Ir(III) metal complexes and related emitters bearing all kind of cyclometalated chromophoric chelates and non-chromophoric ancillary are extensively studied during the past three decades. Many of them have been found to display bright room temperature phosphorescence from triplet excited states in both solution and solid states, offering a possible application in contemporary optoelectronic technologies, including organic light emitting diodes, electrochemiluminescence, biological imaging and chemical sensing. Among reported materials, there are Ir(III) complexes with at least one phosphorus (P)-containing ligand and/or ancillary chelate, together with cyclometalates or equivalents that are in control of the actual emission energy.

When Phosphosugars Meet Gold: Synthesis and Catalytic Activities of Phostones and Polyhydroxylated Phosphonite Au(I) Complexes.

Institut de Chimie des Substances Naturelles, CNRS UPR 2301, Université Paris-Sud, Université Paris-Saclay, 1 Avenue de la Terrasse, 91198 Gif sur Yvette cedex, France.

The synthesis and characterization of P-chiral phosphonite-, phosphonate- and thiophosphonate-Au(I) complexes are reported. These novel ligands for Au(I) are based on glycomimetic phosphorus scaffolds, obtained from the chiral pool. The catalytic activities of these complexes are shown in the cyclization of allenols and the hydroamination of 2-(2-propynyl)aniline combined with an organocatalyzed reduction to the corresponding 2-phenyl tetrahydroquinoline.
