Abstract
The review entitled “Organophosphorus Chemistry for the Synthesis of Dendrimers” gives an overview of the methods of synthesis of phosphorus-containing dendrimers, with emphasis on the various roles played by the chemistry of phosphorus [1]. It is demonstrated that the presence of phosphorus atom(s) at each branching point of the dendrimeric structure is particularly important and highly valuable.

The review “Stoichiometric and Catalytic Synthesis of Alkynylphosphines summarizes the possibilities for the preparation of alkynylphosphines that, or their borane complexes, are available either through C–P bond forming reactions, or through modification of the phosphorus or the alkynyl function of various alkynyl phosphorus derivatives [2]
The latter strategy involving phosphoryl reduction is the method of choice for preparing primary and secondary alkynylphosphines, while the former strategy is employed for the synthesis of tertiary alkynylphosphines, or their borane complexes
Summary
The review entitled “Organophosphorus Chemistry for the Synthesis of Dendrimers” gives an overview of the methods of synthesis of phosphorus-containing dendrimers, with emphasis on the various roles played by the chemistry of phosphorus [1]. The review “Stoichiometric and Catalytic Synthesis of Alkynylphosphines summarizes the possibilities for the preparation of alkynylphosphines that, or their borane complexes, are available either through C–P bond forming reactions, or through modification of the phosphorus or the alkynyl function of various alkynyl phosphorus derivatives [2]. The latter strategy involving phosphoryl reduction is the method of choice for preparing primary and secondary alkynylphosphines, while the former strategy is employed for the synthesis of tertiary alkynylphosphines, or their borane complexes. Efficient catalytic procedures, involving copper complexes and either an electrophilic or a nucleophilic phosphorus reagent have emerged.
