    A Systematic Survey of the Reactivity of Chlorinated N2P2, NP3 and P4 Ring Systems
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2019) Bresien, Jonas; Eickhoff, Liesa; Schulz, Axel; Suhrbier, Tim; Villinger, Alexander
    The reactivity of the four-membered NP3 ring system [RN(μ-PCl)2PR] (R=Mes*=2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl) towards Lewis acids, Lewis bases, and reducing agents was investigated. Comparisons with the literature-known, analogous cyclic compounds [ClP(μ-NR)]2 (R=Ter=2,6-dimesitylphenyl) and [ClP(μ-PR)]2 (R=Mes*) are drawn, to obtain a better systematic understanding of the reactivity of cyclic NP species. Apart from experimental results, DFT computations are discussed to further the insight into bonding and electronic structure of these compounds. © 2019 The Authors.

    Reduction of Activated Alkenes by PIII/PV Redox Cycling Catalysis
    (Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2019) Longwitz, Lars; Werner, Thomas
    The carbon–carbon double bond of unsaturated carbonyl compounds was readily reduced by using a phosphetane oxide catalyst in the presence of a simple organosilane as the terminal reductant and water as the hydrogen source. Quantitative hydrogenation was observed when 1.0 mol % of a methyl-substituted phosphetane oxide was employed as the catalyst. The procedure is highly selective towards activated double bonds, tolerating a variety of functional groups that are usually prone to reduction. In total, 25 alkenes and two alkynes were hydrogenated to the corresponding alkanes in excellent yields of up to 99 %. Notably, less active poly(methylhydrosiloxane) could also be utilized as the terminal reductant. Mechanistic investigations revealed the phosphane as the catalyst resting state and a protonation/deprotonation sequence as the crucial step in the catalytic cycle. © 2019 The Authors.
