The synthetic aspects of chemistry of ligands based on naphthalene peri-substituted by
heavier Group 15 elements (P, As, Sb, Bi) or Group 16 elements (S, Se, Te) are discussed in …

Under Pd (II)/CuI cocatalysis, o-diarylphosphinophenylalkynes cyclize in boiling toluene via
C–P bond cleavage and arylphosphination of the C C bond. This protocol provides an …

A new approach was developed for Pd (II)-catalyzed aromatic coupling of
oxabenzonorbornadienes with triarylphosphines as both ligands and aryl donors. Diverse …

There are few reports of activation of H2 across metal–phosphido linkages, and all of the first-
row metal examples use N-heterocyclic phosphido donors. In this report, we highlight the …

The manganese (I) carbonyl complex [MnBr {Ge (i Pr2bzam) t Bu}(CO) 4](1; i Pr2bzam= 1, 3-
di (isopropyl) benzamidinate), which contains an amidinatogermylene ligand, reacts with …

Dinuclear manganese hydride complexes of the form [Mn2 (CO) 8 (μ‐H)(μ‐PR2)](R= Ph, 1;
R= iPr, 2) were used in E‐selective alkyne semi‐hydrogenation (E‐SASH) catalysis. Catalyst …

The synthesis of a series of rhodium complexes,[PCP] RhX, where X= Cl, H, CH3 and PCP
is a tridentate ligand that contains a central, saturated NHC donor flanked by two o …

We present a computational exploration of the effect of systematic variation of backbones
and substituents on the properties of bidentate, cis-chelating P, P donor ligands as captured …

Direct acetylation of (thio) phosphorylated anilines 1a, b with in situ generated Ph2P (O)
CH2C (O) Cl or sequential treatment of 1a, b with chloroacetyl chloride and Ph2PSNa …

Coordination of a stereochemically defined P3‐chain to a series of transition metal
carbonyls [M (CO) x] z−(M= Mn (x= 5, z= 1), Fe (x= 4, z= 2) or Co (x= 4, z= 1)) is explored …
