Sodium phosphaethynolate, Na(OCP), as a “P” transfer reagent for ...

Sodium phosphaethynolate, Na(OCP), reacts as a P− transfer reagent with the imidazolium salt [DippNHC–H][Cl] [DippNHC = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] to give the parent phosphinidene–carbene adduct, DippNHC PH, with the loss of CO. In a less atom economic reaction, the cage compound, P7(TMS)3 (TMS = SiMe3) reacts likewise with the imidazolium salt to yield DippNHC PH thereby giving two entry points into parent phosphinidene-based chemistry. From the building block DippNHC PH, the carbene-supported P3 cation [(DippNHC)2(μ-P3)][Cl] was rationally synthesized using half an equivalent of PCl3 in the presence of DABCO (1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane). The corresponding arsenic analogue, [(DippNHC)2(μ-PAsP)][Cl], was synthesized in the same manner using AsCl3. The reduction of both [(DippNHC)2(μ-P3)][Cl] and [(DippNHC)2(μ-PAsP)][Cl] into their corresponding neutral radical species was achieved simply by reducing the compounds with an excess of magnesium. This allowed the electronic structures of the compounds to be investigated using a combination of NMR and EPR spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, and computational studies. The findings of the investigation into (DippNHC)2(μ-P3) and (DippNHC)2(μ-PAsP) reveal the central pnictogen atom in both cases as the main carrier of the spin density (∼60%), and that they are best described as the P3 or PAsP analogues of the elusive allyl radical dianion. The phosphorus radical was also able to undergo a cycloaddition with an activated acetylene, followed by an electron transfer to give the ion pair [(DippNHC)2(μ-P3)][P3(C(COOMe))2].
