Abstract
AbstractThe crown ether phosphanes PAr*Ph2 (1) and PAr*2R [Ar* = 3,4‐(18‐crown‐6)‐phenyl; R = Me (2); R = Ph (3)], prepared from PCl2R and Ar*Li, have been studied. The syntheses and characterization of their oxides (4–6), and their BH3 (7–9), PdCl2 (10–12), and PtCl2 (13–15) complexes are reported. The molecular structure of the borane complex PAr*2Ph·BH3 (9) has been determined by X‐ray structural analysis. Spectroscopic data suggest that phosphanes 1–3 have similar electronic properties and steric requirements to the corresponding phenylphosphane ligands PPh2Me and PPh3. Crown ether methylphosphane 2 and its complexes are remarkably water soluble, but 1 and 3 are only slightly soluble. Palladium(II) complexes 14 and 15 have been tested as catalysts in the Stille coupling of phenyltrichlorostannanes and aryl iodides in water. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
