A kinetically inert, reversible coordination polymer (3) was obtained through complexation of dicyclohexylphosphine telechelic poly(tetrahydrofuran) with palladium(II) dichloride. This coordination polymer is unreactive towards palladium(II) dichloride bis(1-diphenylphosphino)dodecane (4), because ligand dissociation in the coordination polymer is slow. However, upon ultrasonication of solution...

Chloromethylgold(I) complexes of phosphine, phosphite, and N-heterocyclic carbene ligands are easily synthesized by reaction of trimethylsilyldiazomethane with the corresponding gold chloride precursors. Activation of these gold(I) carbenoids with a variety of chloride scavengers promotes reactivity typical of metallocarbenes in solution, namely homocoupling to ethylene, olefin cyclopropanation...

background: aluminum phosphide (alp) poisoning is one of the most life threatening emergencies. in this study, demographic characteristics, clinical profiles and outcomes of a series of patients presented with alp poisoning in north iran are described. methods: the study was a retrospective descriptive medical chart review of alp poisoned patients who were admitted to internal ward of imam khom...

Phosphine-catalyzed tandem Michael addition/intramolecular Wittig reactions have been developed for the synthesis of chiral 2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrole and tetrahydropyridine derivatives. These processes rendered catalytic in phosphine, thanks to situ reduction phosphine oxide by phenylsilane. Furthermore, asymmetric P(III)/P(V) were implemented using enantiopure phosphines.

Multicomponent reactions are employed extensively in many areas of organic chemistry. Despite significant progress, the discovery of such enabling transformations remains challenging. Here, we present the development of a parallel, label-free reaction-discovery platform that can be used in the identification of new multicomponent transformations. Our approach is based on parallel mass spectrome...

For 1982 1992, records from the California Pesticide Illness Surveillance Program (PISP) showed 210 cases associated with exposure to phosphine gas and solid formulations of aluminum and zinc phosphide and 205 cases had sufficient information to retain in the data analysis. Of the cases with sufficient information, 179 (87.3%) cases involved isolated exposure to aluminum phosphide and 3 involve...

Catalytic synthesis of nonracemic P-chiral phosphine derivatives remains a significant challenge. Here we report Cu-catalyzed enantioselective arylation of secondary phosphine oxides with diaryliodonium salts for the synthesis of tertiary phosphine oxides with high enantiomeric excess. The new process is demonstrated on a wide range of substrates and leads to products that are well-established ...

Saturn's poles exhibit an unexpected symmetry in hot, cyclonic polar vortices, despite huge seasonal differences in solar flux. The cores of both vortices are depleted in phosphine gas, probably resulting from subsidence of air into the troposphere. The warm cores are present throughout the upper troposphere and stratosphere at both poles. The thermal structure associated with the marked hexago...

Abstract The detection of phosphorous-bearing molecules in interstellar environments constitutes a fundamental task for understanding the formation prebiotic molecules, but it is also challenge. In cold environments, where rich chemistry expected to happen, only PN and PO have been detected. Phosphine (PH 3 ) must play an essential role these regions, since P deplete onto dust grains significan...

High-purity In₂O₃ nanoparticles were recovered from scrap indium tin oxide substrates in a stepwise process involving acidic leaching, liquid-liquid extraction with a phosphine oxide extractant, and combustion of the organic phase. The morphological and structural parameters of the recovered nanoparticles were investigated to support the formation of the desired products. These In₂O₃ nanopartic...
