Indium(III) promoted oxidative P-P coupling of silylphosphines

Cartlidge, Ashleigh J.

Abstract

The reaction of indium(III) salts with Ph2PSiMe3 and PhP(SiMe3)2 gives rise to a one- and two-electron reductive P-P coupling respectively, with the formation of new P-P bonds resulting in the preparation of (Ph2P)2 and the cyclicoligophosphane compounds (PhP)4 and (PhP)6.
