  • Phosphine-Catalyzed Additions of Nucleophiles and Electrophiles to Α
    PHOSPHINE-CATALYZED ADDITIONS OF NUCLEOPHILES AND ELECTROPHILES TO α,β–UNSATURATED CARBONYL COMPOUNDS Reported by Michael Scott Bultman November 4, 2004 INTRODUCTION Organophosphorous compounds are becoming increasingly important in organic synthesis. Phosphines serve as precursors to phosphonium ylides in the Wittig reaction,1 and as nucleophilic triggers in the Mitsunobu2 and Staudinger3 reactions. In these processes, the phosphine is stoichiometrically consumed and converted into a phosphine oxide. Phosphines are also commonly used as ligands for transition metal-catalyzed reactions, to modulate reactivity and stereocontrol.4 On the other hand, the use of phosphines as nucleophilic catalysts for organic reactions has only gained attention in the last ten years. First reported by Rauhut and Currier in 1963,5 phosphine catalysis has since been reinvestigated after the phosphine ligands in some transition-metal-catalyzed reactions were found to be better catalysts than the metal/phosphine complexes alone!6 Phosphines are well suited for catalyzing the addition of both nucleophiles and electrophiles to electron deficient alkenes, alkynes, and allenes. Activation of these α,β-unsaturated carbonyl systems with the phosphine enables the formation of new bonds at the α-, β-, and γ-positions. This report will highlight these different modes of addition to α,β-unsaturated carbonyl systems under phosphine catalysis that allow for the formation of a wide array of products from a single class of substrates. GENERAL REACTIVITY OF PHOSPHINES Key characteristics required for successful nucleophilic catalysis lie in the balance of leaving group ability, nucleophilicity, and ease of ylid formation. Increasing leaving group ability can often be + correlated with decreasing basicity.

  • Guidelines for Pyrophoric Materials
    Guidelines for Pyrophoric Materials Definition and Hazards Pyrophoric materials are substances that ignite instantly upon exposure to air, moisture in the air, oxygen or water. Other common hazards include corrosivity, teratogenicity, and organic peroxide formation, along with damage to the liver, kidneys, and central nervous system. Examples include metal hydrides, finely divided metal powders, nonmetal hydride and alkyl compounds, white phosphorus, alloys of reactive materials and organometallic compounds, including alkylithiums. Additional pyrophoric materials are listed in Appendix A. Failure to follow proper handling techniques could result in serious injury or death. Controlling the Hazards . If possible, use safer chemical alternatives. A “dry run” of the experiment should be performed using low-hazard materials, such as water or solvent, as appropriate. Limit the amount purchased and the amount stored. Do not accumulate unneeded pyrophoric materials. BEFORE working with pyrophoric materials, read the MSDS sheets. The MSDS must be reviewed before using an unfamiliar chemical and periodically as a reminder. A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) should be prepared and reviewed for each process involving pyrophoric materials. In lab training should be completed and documented. If possible, use the “buddy system”. Working alone with pyrophorics is strongly discouraged. All glassware used for pyrophorics should be oven-dried and free of moisture. Review the location of the safety shower, eyewash, telephone, and fire extinguisher. Keep an appropriate fire extinguisher or extinguishing material close at hand. Additional controls when handling liquid pyrophoric materials . Secure pyrophoric reagent bottle to stand. Secure the syringe so if the plunger blows out of the body of the syringe the contents will not splash anyone.

Chapter 1 begins with an introduction of Lewis base borane complexes, rhodium carbene chemistry, and B–H insertion of ligated boranes. The second part of Chapter 1 describes the insertion of rhodium carbenes, previously demonstrated with NHC- boranes, into the B–H bonds of other ligated boranes. Stable ligated α-boryl esters were isolated. A series of competitive B–H insertion experiments are described that were used to develop a relative reactivity profile of ligated boranes toward rhodium-catalyzed B–H insertion. The enantioselective B–H insertion of NHC-boranes with chiral dirhodium catalysts was also investigated. Finally, the synthesis and application of two chiral bridged dirhodium catalysts is described.

Cullen REACTIONS OF SOME UNSATURATED FLUOROCARBON DERIVATIVES WITH ORGANO COMPOUNDS OF PHOSPHOROUS AND NITROGEN ABSTRACT Perfluorocyclobutene and 1,2-dichlorotetrafluoro- cylobutene react readily with diethylphosphine at 20° to give unstable mono-subs'titution products, 1-diethyl- phosphino-2-halotetrafluorocyclobutenes. With tetra- methyldiphosphine, low yields of 1,2-bis(dimethylphos- phino)tetrafluorocyclobutene and trifluorodimethylphos- phorane are obtained from the chloro- and perfluoro- butenes respectively. Diphenylphosphine also gives the 1,2-disubstituted product at.20°, from perfluorocyclo• butene only. This olefin interacts with tetraphenyl- diphosphine (130°) to give 1-diphenylphosphinotrifluoro- cyclobutenone (from 95% ethanol). Under identical conditions the chloro-butene reacts with the phenyl- phosphines to give trifluorodiphenylphosphorane and fluorodiphenylphosphine oxide. Tetrakis (trifluoro- methyl)diphosphine on heating or ultra-violet irradia• tion reacts only very slightly, while bis(trifluoro- methyl)phosphine is essentially inert towards the cyclobutenes. Dimethylamine readily adds to hexafluorobutyne-2 at 20°to give the 1:1 adduct, 2-dimethylamino-3-H-hexa- fluorobutene-2, the ratio of trans:cis isomers being 6.2:1. -.The cis isomer is converted by distillation, but not by heating in a sealed tube, to the trans form.

    '•'ADDITION PRODUCTS FROM THE REACTION OF PHOSPHORUS (III) HALIDES WITH CARBONYL COMPOUNDS" By K.L. Freeman, B.Sc. This Thesis is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. .Supervisor : Dr. M.G. Gallaoher, Department of Orqanic Chemistry, School of Chemistry, University of N.S.W. PREFACE The work described in this thesis was carried out in the Oroanic Chemistry Laboratories at the University of New South Wales from May 1964 to December 1967, under the supervision of Dr. M.J. Gallagher. It is original except in those parts so indicated. Part of the dissertation (Section i) has been oublished in a condensed form in Tetrahedron Letters and in the Australian Journal of Chemistry under the title "The Aluminium Chloride Catalysed Reactions of Phosphorus (ill) Halides and Carbonyl Compounds". Sections 2 and 3 have been published in the Australian Journal of Chemistry under the titles "The Alkaline Fusion of Phosphinic Acids" and "The Reactions of Tervalent Phosphorus Compounds with Dichlorodiphenylmethane". This thesis has not been submitted for a higher degree at any other University. l-'l'ik’ TABLE OF CONTENTS PAGE‘NO.
