Abstract

An overview of the chemistry of transition metal complexes containing P−H bonds is presented. Central to this microreview are those compounds in which the P−H bond is assembled by reactions entailing the transfer of one or more hydrogen atoms to white phosphorus or to Px fragments resulting from P4 activation and degradation within the coordination sphere of a transition metal complex. The relevance of these processes to the as yet unaccomplished hydrogenation of white phosphorus is briefly discussed.
