Received: 13 May 2017; Accepted: 4 July 2017; Published: 11 July 2017 Abstract: Organophosphorus compounds containing P-C bonds are increasingly developed as flame retardant additives due to their excellent thermal and hydrolytic stability and ease of synthesis. The latest development (since 2010) in organophosphorus flame retardants containing P-C bonds summarized in this review. In this review, we have broadly classified such phosphorus compounds based on the carbon unit linked to the phosphorus atom i.e., could be a part of either an aliphatic or an aromatic unit. We have only considered those published literature where a P-C bond was created as a part of synthetic strategy to make either an intermediate or a final organophosphorus compound with an aim to use it as a flame retardant. General synthetic strategies to create P-C bonds are briefly discussed. Most popular synthetic strategies used for developing P-C containing phosphorus based flame retardants include Michael addition, Michaelis–Arbuzov, Friedels–Crafts and Grignard reactions.

  • Synthesis of Phosphine-Alkene Ligands and 3-Hydroxy Piperidines Using Organolithium Chemistry Chehasnah Haji-Cheteh
    Synthesis of Phosphine-Alkene Ligands and 3-Hydroxy Piperidines Using Organolithium Chemistry Chehasnah Haji-Cheteh Doctor of Philosophy University of York Chemistry March 2016 Abstract Abstract This thesis describes synthetic routes to P-stereogenic phosphine-alkene ligands and 3- hydroxy piperidines containing heteroaromatics via lithiation-trapping of phosphine boranes or N-Boc pyrrolidine. Both topics are introduced in chapter 1. Chapter 2 presents a route to a new type of P-stereogenic phosphine-alkene ligand B prepared by racemic lithiation of t-butyldimethylphosphine borane or dimethylphenylphosphine borane using s-BuLi. Different allylic halides were used to trap the lithiated R1 = Ph, t-Bu intermediate to give chiral alkene-phosphine boranes A. R2 = H, Me, Br In chapter 3, 3-hydroxy piperidines were synthesised from the ring expansion of hydroxy pyrrolidines. Two novel, short and simple synthetic routes were developed (as shown below). Lithiation-trapping reaction of N-Boc pyrrolidine C using pyridine carboxaldehydes gave N-Boc pyrrolidine alcohols syn-D and anti-D. On the other hand, an alternative approach to obtain 3-hydroxy piperidines anti-H starting from N-trityl prolinal E derived from (S)-proline was investigated. Addition of lithiated heteroaromatics, generated from a Br/Li exchange reaction, to N-trityl prolinal E diastereoselectively gave N-trityl alcohols anti-F. The Boc or trityl deprotection and reductive amination then gave N-benzyl pyrrolidines syn-G and anti-G. Finally, the ring expansion via an aziridinium ion of alcohols syn-G and anti-G gave 3-hydroxy piperidines syn-H and anti-H. The stereochemistry of 3- hydroxy piperidines syn-H and anti-H was proven using J-values in the 1H NMR spectra.

Feldman Professor of Chemistry Chemistry Graduate Program Chair Scott T. Phillips Associate Professor of Chemistry Martarano Career Development Professorship Joshua D. Lambert Associate Professor of Food Science *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT Phosphorus catalysis is a growing field that is currently based upon the utility of three major catalytic cycles: 1) three coordinate phosphine to four coordinate phosphonium, 2) three coordinate phosphine to four coordinate phosphine oxide, and 3) four coordinate phosphonium to five coordinate phosphorane. In this thesis, a new mode of phosphorus catalysis will be described, wherein the catalytic cycle relies upon the transition from three-coordinate phosphorus to five- coordinate phosphorane. Specifically, we have developed two systems where geometrically constrained phosphorus(III) compounds catalyze the reduction of unsaturated substrates. In the first system, a planar, T-shaped phosphorus(III) compound is transformed into a five-coordinate hydridophosphorane with no observable intermediates; catalytic reduction of azobenzene is observed with both species in the presence of a reductant. In the second example, a cyclic phosphine catalyzes the reductive transposition of allylic halides. We believe that the demonstrated ability of phosphorus compounds to cycle between three-coordinate and five-coordinate complexes marks the development of new class of phosphorus-catalyzed reactions that could have broad applications in synthetic chemistry.

  • Chapter 7 Experimental
    Chapter 7 Experimental 7 Experimental 7.1 General Procedures All manipulations of metal complexes and air sensitive reagents were performed under an inert atmosphere of nitrogen either by the use of standard Schlenk and vacuum line techniques or in a nitrogen-filled glove box. Solutions were transferred using double ended needles (cannulae) and gas tight syringes. Glassware and double ended needles were oven dried at 160°C overnight. All reagents, including 1 5 N labelled compounds, were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich Pty. Ltd., except dimethylphenylphosphine, triallylphosphine, 1,2-bis (dimethylphosphino)ethane, and 1,2-bis (diethylphosphino)ethane, which were purchased from Strem Chemicals, Inc. and used as received. For the purposes of air sensitive manipulations and in the preparation of metal complexes, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, hexane, toluene and benzene were stored over sodium wire and distilled prior to use from sodium/benzophenone ketyl under nitrogen. Methanol was dried over and distilled from magnesium turnings. Acetone was dried over and distilled from CaSO 4 . Dimethylformamide was dried over activated molecular sieves. Absolute ethanol, 2-methoxyethanol, 2,2-dimethoxypropane and anhydrous chloroform were used as received. - 221 - Chapter 7 Experimental All bulk compressed gases were obtained from British Oxygen Company (BOC Gases). Argon (>99.99%) and nitrogen (>99.5%) were passed through drying columns of potassium hydroxide before use. Methyl bromide (>95%), carbon monoxide (>98%) and dihydrogen (>99%) were used as supplied. Vinyl bromide was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and used as supplied. Air sensitive NMR samples were either prepared in a nitrogen-filled glove-box or by transferring the solutions by double ended needles through an air tight septum seal.
