The new bis(phosphaalkenyl) germanium(II) compound (NHC)Ge(CCl=PMes*)(2) reacts with L(2)M(CO)(4) (M = Mo, W) to give bidentate complexes with an unexpected coordinating behaviour involving the Ge(II) centre and one phosphorus atom, and with AuI or Me(2)SAuCl to afford the monodentate complexes coordinated at the germanium(II) atom.

The reaction of triarylantimony diacetates [Ar3Sb(OAc)2] with dialkyl H-phosphites [H-PO(OR)2] in the presence of a Pd(PPh3)4 (5 mol%) catalyst led to the formation of arylphosphonates in moderate to excellent yield under base-free conditions. This reaction is the first example of carbon-phosphorus bond formation by using an organoantimony compound as a pseudo-halide.

A hitherto unprecedented electronic situation has been observed for a substituted, pyridyl-functionalized phosphinine. In contrast to previous studies, this compound shows considerable π-donor properties as the result of the rather strong +M effect of the CH3S-substituent, changing the electronic properties of this low-coordinate and aromatic phosphorus heterocycle substantially.

The reaction of 2,2,2-nitrilotriacetic acid with phosphorus pentachloride furnished 2,2,2-nitrilotriacetyl chloride (1), a useful chemical intermediate for various further reactions. The compound has been fully characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy, vibrational analysis (IR and Raman), mass spectrometry and elemental analysis. Furthermore, the crystal structure of 1 has been determined...

An isotopic shift of the (31)P nuclear magnetic resonance due to (18)O bonded to phosphorus of 0.0206 ppm has been observed in inorganic orthophosphate and adenine nucleotides. Thus, the separation between the resonances of (31)P(18)O(4) and (31)P(16)O(4) at 145.7 MHz is 12 Hz and, in a randomized sample containing approximately 50% (18)O, all five (16)O-(18)O species are resolved and separated...

The occurrence of an enzyme which catalyzes the cleavage of phytin into inosite and phosphoric acid was first noted in rice bran by Suzuki, Yoshimura and Takaishi.1 These investigators found that when rice bran was suspended in water and left for several days at room temperature the greater part of the organic phosphorus went into solution, and at the same time phosphoric acid was formed at the...

It is particularly significant to investigate the reduction behavior and existing form of phosphorus in metal slag phase during coal-based for efficient development utilization high-phosphorus oolitic hematite. The minerals their high hematite were systematically investigated using HSC software simulation, thermodynamic calculation, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), e...

4-(2-(4-Halophenyl)hydrazinyl)-6-phenylpyridazin-3(2H)-ones 1a,b were prepared and treated with phosphorus oxychloride, phosphorus pentasulphide and ethyl chloroformate to give the corresponding chloropyridazine, pyridazinethione, oxazolopyridazine derivatives 2-4, respectively. Compound 2 reacted with hydrazine hydrate to afford hydrazinylpyridazine 7. The reaction of 4-(2-(4-chlorophenyl)hydr...

A new phosphorus-containing compound (1) was detected by (31)P NMR spectroscopy in Streptomyces sp. A50. Compound 1, 1(alpha)-O-methyl-2-(N-acetyl)glucoseamine-6-O-phosphate-1(alpha)-2-(N-acetyl)glucosamine, exhibited a pK(a) value around zero. The compound was found both in the extracellular culture broth and in the cells. While very low concentrations of 1 were found in the culture broth of o...
