The EP 2 492 274 A1 Printed by Jouve, 75001 PARIS (FR) EP 2 492 274 A1 Description Technical Field: 5 [0001] The current invention relates to the structure, a simple one step synthesis of dialkyl(2,4,6- or 2,6- alkoxyphenyl) phosphine or its tetrafluoroborate, as well as its applications in the Suzuki coupling reactions and the carbon-nitrogen bond formation reactions after palladium catalyzed carbon- chlorine bond activation reactions. To be more specific, during the synthesis of stable dialkyl(2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine or its tetrafluoroborate, the highly active organic phosphine is used to coordinate with the palladium catalyst in order to activate the inert carbon-chlorine bond highly 10 selectively. Background technology: [0002] Organic halides are very important building blocks in organic synthesis. However, in their application in the 15 past, expensive but relatively active organic bromides and iodides were used in coupling reactions to synthesize target molecules (Chem. Rev. 1994, 94, 1047). If inert carbon-chlorine bonds can be selectively activated and to use cheap chlorides in these types of reactions, it would be much better not only in respect of atom economy but also in respect of industrial cost. So far, some organic phosphine ligands can be used to activate inert carbon-chlorine bonds (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2002, 41, 4176 ; Acc. Chem. Res. 2007, 40, 275 ; Acc. Chem. Res. 2007, 40, 676 ; Acc. Chem. Res. 20 2008, 41, 1461 ; Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2008, 2013 ; Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2008, 47, 6338). However, during the study on the carbon- chlorine bond coupling reactions of the optically active β-chloro-α,β-unsaturated five-membered lactones, the inventor of the current invention has discovered that some ligands commonly used in the activation of carbon- chlorine bonds (such as: tricyclohexylphosphonium tetrafluoroborate or 2-dicyclohexylphosphino-2’,6’-dimethoxybiphenyl etc.) cannot yield the corresponding optically active coupling products highly selectively (please see embodiments for specific 25 examples). Content of the invention: [0003] The object of the current invention is to provide a new type of organic phosphine ligand --- dialkyl (2,4,6- or 2,6- 30 alkoxyphenyl)phosphine and its tetrafluoroborate as well as the method of their preparation. [0004] Another goal of the current invention is to provide a method and application for the inert sp2 carbon-chlorine bonds activations highly selectively in the presence of the palladium catalyst and the above mentioned organic phosphine or its tetrafluoroborate. [0005] The coordination of dialkyl (2,4,6- or 2,6- alkoxyphenyl)phosphine or its tetrafluoroborate with palladium catalyst 35 can activate inert carbon-chlorine bonds highly selectively, and can catalyze Suzuki coupling reaction with arylboronic acid, or carbon-nitrogen bond formation reaction with organic amines. Compared with known synthetic routes of ligands used in activating carbon- chlorine bonds, the method of current invention is short, easy to operate, which has undoubtedly high research and application value. [0006] The structures of the dialkyl(2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine and its tetrafluoroborate of the current in- 40 vention are as follows: 45 50 wherein, R1, R2 is isopropyl, tertbutyl, cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or admantyl group and R3 is alkyl group. [0007] In the method to synthesize dialkyl (2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine or its tetrafluoroborate of the current invention, trichlorophosphine, alkylmagnesium chloride, alkoxybenzene and n-butyl lithium are used as starting materials. 1,3- or 1,3,5-alkoxybenzene is reacted with n-butyl lithium in tetrahydrofuran to produce the corresponding lithium reagent. Alkylmagnesium chloride is reacted with trichlorophosphine to produce chlorodialkyl phosphine. The above 55 mentioned lithium reagent is reacted with chlorodialkyl phosphine to produce dialkyl(2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phos- phine. Tetrafluoroboric acid aqueous solution can be used to quench the reaction to produce the corresponding pure dialkyl(2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine tetrafluoroborate after re-crystallization. [0008] More detailed reaction steps are described as follows: 2 EP 2 492 274 A1 3 1) use tetrahydrofuran as an organic solvent, and at room temperature, alkoxybenzene (RO)nC6H(6-n) is reacted 3 with n-butyl lithium for 2-15 hours to produce the corresponding lithium reagent (R O)nC6H(5-n)Li; 3 1 2 2) react the lithium reagent above (R O)nC6H(5-n)Li with chlorodialkyl phosphine R R PCl under -78-30 °C for 2 to 3 1 2 10 hours to produce a dialkyl(2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine (R O)nC6H(5-n)P R R , tetrafluoroboric acid 5 aqueous solution is used to quench the reaction and to produce the corresponding dialkyl (2,4,6- or 2,6- alkoxyphenyl) 3 1 2 + - phosphine tetrafluoroborate ((R O)nC6H(5-n)P R R )(H BF4 ); the molar ratio of said chlorodialkyl phosphine and (2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl) lithium is 0.8-1.2 : 1; said R1, R2 and R3 are as described before. The reaction products can be purified by re-crystallization. 10 [0009] A typical reaction formula is as follows: 15 20 25 30 [0010] In the reaction, R1, R2 is isopropyl, tertbutyl, cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or admantyl group and R 3 is alkyl group. [0011] Dialkyl(2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine and its tetrafluoroborate of the current invention can be used in 35 the selective activation of inert carbon-chlorine bond for Suzuki coupling reaction to produce biphenyl compounds. [0012] The more detailed description of the above mentioned application is as follows: The synthesis of the coupling compounds are carried out under the protection of inert gases, at 80-120 °C, in an organic solvent, with the dialkyl (2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine or its tetrafluoroborate and palladium as catalysts, arylboronic acid, base, water and arylchloride are reacted for 0.6-28 hours to produce the corresponding biphenyl compounds; said organic solvent is 1,4- 40 dioxane or toluene; the equivalent molar ratio of base, palladium catalyst, dialkyl(2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine or its tetrafluoroborate, arylboronic acid, water and arylchloride is 2.0~4.0 : 0.03~0.05 : 0.06~0.10 : 1.5~2.5 : 0~5.0 : 1.0; said organic solvent is 1,4-dioxane or toluene; said base is potassium carbonate, potassium phosphate, cesium car- bonate, or cesium fluoride; dialkyl (2,4,6- or 2,6-alkoxyphenyl)phosphine or its tetrafluoroborate is as claimed in claim 1; said arylchloride is R4 substituted chlorobenzene; said arylboronic acid is R5 substituted aryl boronic acid; R4 is ortho-, 45 meta-, para- substituted alkyl, alkoxy or hydrogen; R 5 is ortho-, meta-, para- substituted alkyl, alkoxy, aryl or hydrogen.

Abstract This work is focused on two areas: the chemistry of organofluorine and organoboron compounds. In the first chapter, a copper-catalysed synthesis of tri- and tetrasubstituted allenylboronic acids is presented. Extension of the same method leads to allenylboronic esters. The very reactive and moisture-sensitive allenylboronic acids are further applied to the reaction with aldehydes, ketones and imines to form homopropargyl alcohols and amines. In addition, an enantioselective reaction catalysed by a BINOL organocatalyst was developed to form tertiary alcohols with adjacent quaternary carbon stereocenters. The second chapter specialises in the functionalisation of 2,2-difluoro enol silyl ethers with electrophilic reagents under mild reaction conditions.

POTENTIAL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE 5.1 OVERVIEW Pb and Pb compounds have been identified in at least 1,287 and 46 sites, respectively, of the 1,867 hazardous waste sites that have been proposed for inclusion on the EPA National Priorities List (NPL) (ATSDR 2019). However, the number of sites evaluated for Pb is not known. The number of sites in each state is shown in Figures 5-1 and 5-2, respectively. Of these 1,287 sites for Pb, 1,273 are located within the United States, 2 are located in the Virgin Islands, 2 are located in Guam, and 10 are located in Puerto Rico (not shown). All the sites for Pb compounds are only in the United States. Figure 5-1. Number of NPL Sites with Lead Contamination LEAD 356 5. POTENTIAL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE Figure 5-2. Number of NPL Sites with Lead Compound Contamination • Pb is an element found in concentrated and easily accessible Pb ore deposits that are widely distributed throughout the world. • The general population may be exposed to Pb in ambient air, foods, drinking water, soil, and dust. For adults, exposure to levels of Pb beyond background are usually associated with occupational exposures. • For children, exposure to high levels of Pb are associated with living in areas contaminated by Pb (e.g., soil or indoor dust in older homes with Pb paint). Exposure usually occurs by hand-to- mouth activities. • As an element, Pb does not degrade. However, particulate matter contaminated with Pb can move through air, water, and soil.

    SOME SALTS OF VERY STRONG ACIDS. By Kenneth Charles Moss. A thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London* AUGUST 1962. -1- ABSTRACT An investigation of monohydroxyfluoroborates was undertaken with reference to the sodium, potassium and tetraalkyl ammonium salts as the existence of these, compounds is in some doubt. Sodium and potassium monohydroxyfluoroborates were prepared and characterised, but the tetraalkylammonium salts could not be prepared. Several fluoroborate metal hydrates were prepared and their X-ray photographs indexed. They are found to be isomorphous with the corresponding perchlorates. It was found that silver(2) fluoride reacts with boron trifluoride to give silver(1) fluoroborate. A study oil the solubility of anhydrous first-row transition metal perchlorates, fluoroborates, trifluoroacetates, hexafluoro -phosphates, -vanadates, -silicates and -titanates in organic solvents such se benzene, toluene,ether and nitro- methane was carried out. The d-d spectra of the solutions of these salts in ether were obtained. The preparation of solid anhydrous fluoroborates, perchlorates and trifluoro- acetates from non-aqueous solvents was investigated and mum perchlorates and trifluoroacatates were obtained. Magnetic measurements were made on the solid trifluoroacetates and on solutions of the perchlorates in ether. -12- The stability of complexes of phosphorous penta- fluoride with Group V triaryls was investigated, and.it was found that only triphenylphosphine forms a stable complex. Phosphine-metal-fluorides of Pt, Pd and Ir were prepared from phosphlne-metal-hydrides and are the first complexes to be prepared with both phosphine and fluorine bonded to the same metal atom.

Brønsted‐Lowry Acid Strength of Metal Hydride and Dihydrogen Complexes Robert H. Morris* Department of Chemistry, University of Toronto, 80 Saint George St. Toronto, Ontario, M5S3H6, Canada Transition metal hydride complexes are usually amphoteric, not only acting as hydride donors, but also as Brønsted‐Lowry acids. A simple additive ligand acidity constant equation (LAC for short) allows the LAC estimation of the acid dissociation constant Ka of diamagnetic transition metal hydride and dihydrogen complexes.
