Bidentate phosphine ligands have been prepared on polystyrene beads modified with polyether dendron spacers. When complexed to Pd(0), these systems exhibited a negative dendritic effect on Heck catalysis (contrary to the analogous monodentate phosphine systems), but mostly a positive influence on carbonylation. This opposite influence of the dendronization falls into line with other differences...

N-Phosphine oxide substituted imidazolylidenes (PoxIms) have been synthesized and fully characterized. These species can undergo significant changes to the spatial environment surrounding their carbene center through rotation of the phosphine oxide moiety. Either classical Lewis adducts (CLAs) or frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs) are thus formed with B(C6 F5 )3 depending on the orientation of the p...

aluminum phosphide (alp) is a highly effective rodenticide which is used as a suicide poison. herein, a 24 year-old man who’d intentionally ingested about 1liter of alcohol and one tablet of alp is reported. acute myocardial infarction due to alp poisoning has been occurred secondary to aip poisoning. cardiovascular complications are poor prognostic factors in alp poisoning

The Mitsunobu reaction is renowned for its mild reaction conditions and broad substrate tolerance, but has limited utility in process chemistry and industrial applications due to poor atom economy and the generation of stoichiometric phosphine oxide and hydrazine by-products that complicate purification. A catalytic Mitsunobu reaction using innocuous reagents to recycle these by-products would ...

Well-behaved and reproducible n-type doping of Si and Sir -$e, by phosphine during gas-source molecular beam epitaxy is demonstrated. No significant reduction of growth rate of these materials in the presence of phosphine is recorded in the doping range of 1017-10’9 cmp3 and perfect surface morphologies are observed. The incorporated P atoms are fully activated without ex situ annealing. The do...

We communicate a user-friendly and glove-box-free catalytic protocol for the manganese-catalyzed hydrogenation of ketones conjugated CCbonds esters nitriles. The respective catalyst is readily assembled in situ from privileged [Mn(CO)5Br] precursor cheap 2-picolylamine. transformations were performed presence t-BuOK whereby corresponding products obtained good to excellent yields. described sys...

The title compound, [Ru(C(10)H(15))Cl(C(12)H(10)ClP)(C(17)H(20)NP)], is a half-sandwich complex of Ru(II) with the chloro-diphenyl-phosphine ligand formed from the diphenyl-piperidinophosphine and chlorine of the precursor complex [Ru(η(5)-C(5)Me(5))(κ(1)P-Ph(2)PNC(5)H(10))Cl(2)] by an unexpected reaction with NaBH(4). The complex has a three-legged piano-stool geometry, with Ru-P bond lengths ...

Phosphine has been known to science since the birth of modern chemistry. WHO reports that the technical product usually has a foul odour, like "fishy" or "garlicky" because of the presence of substituted phosphines and diphosphine (P2H4). Many medico-legal autopsy cases have been reported positive for aluminium phosphide even though there was neither any suspicion of consuming aluminium phosphi...

The title compound, [Co(C(30)H(23)O(2)P(2))(C(3)H(9)P)(2)], was synthesized by the addition of a Co(PMe(3))(4) solution to (PPh(2)O)(2)C(6)H(4). The Co(I) atom displays a trigonal-bipyramidal geometry with the two P atoms of the 'PCP' pincer ligand and the P atom of one of the trimethyl phosphine ligands forming the basal plane, whereas the metalated C atom and the P atom of the second phospine...
