Abstract
Abstract The ring enlargement of ready available phospholenes by dichlorocarbene addition to the double bond and subsequent opening of the cyclopropane ring is discussed. Adductcs of phospholene wih dichlorocarbene (2)can be synthetised under liquid-liquid phase transfer circumstances. The simplest bray to open the cyclopropane ring in the adducts is thermal transformation giving the two regioisomers of the appropriate dihydrophosphorin (3). Electrophilic reagents can also be used for -the opening of the cyclopropane ring. On heating with silver nitrate in water or in alcohols the adducts are transformed to the -two rcgioisomers of the hydroxy- or the alkoxy -tetrahydrophosphorins, respectively (4, Y=H, CH3 C2H5) In the reaction of adducts with mercury acetate-acetic acid the corresponding acetoxy-derivatives (4, Y=CH3CO) are formed. The Friedl Crofts reaction of the adducts with benzene iii the presence of aluminium trichloride yields diarylated product.
