Abstract
The synthesis and functionalization of the parent 1,3-benzothiaphosphole is reported. The phosphole could not be isolated, but the compound could be manipulated in solution to produce several new phosphorus compounds. Metalation of the 2-position using lithium diisopropylamide proceeded smoothly according to 31P NMR spectroscopy, and quenching with trimethylsilyl chloride resulted in the desired 2-(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-benzothiaphosphole. The P═C bond of the thiaphosphole was also explored as a dienophile in Diels–Alder reactions with isoprene, 2,3-dimethylbutadiene, 2,3-dibenzylbutadiene, and cyclopentadiene. The fused-ring structures were fully characterized, and a solid-state molecular structure of the 2,3-dimethylbutadiene cycloadduct was obtained. Residual dipolar coupling (RDC) NMR experiments were used to assign major and minor products for the isoprene and cyclopentadiene adducts.
