The synthesis of a new trisbenzylsilanephosphine P{(o-C6H4CH2)SiMe2H}3 (1) is shown to proceed with high yields from P(o-tolyl)3. Compound 1 coordinates to the Rh and Ir dimers [MCl(COD)]2 (M = Rh, Ir) in a tetradentate or tridentate fashion, depending on the strict exclusion of water. The dimeric compounds [ClM(SiMe2CH2-o-C6H4)2P(o-C6H4-CH2SiMe2H)]2, 2Rh and 2Ir, feature a tetradentate coordination of the starting ligand with P and two Si atoms as well as a non-classical agostic Si-H group. The presence of adventitious water in the solvents leads to the formation of two new complexes [(μ2-Cl)2M2(SiMe2CH2-o-C6H4)2P(o-C6H4-CH2SiMe2OSiMe2CH2-o-C6H4-)P(SiMe2CH2-o-C6H4)2], 3Rh and 3Ir, which feature a siloxane bridge through Si-H bond breaking in 2. Reaction of [RhCl(COD)]2 with the bisbenzylsilanephosphine PhP{(o-C6H4CH2)SiMe2H}2 leads to the formation of compound 4Rh which features also a dimeric structure with the SiPSi ligand coordinated through the two silicon atoms, one of which occupies the apical position of a square-pyramidal geometry in the solid state, while the second is disposed equatorially trans to π-donor Cl. Finally, bidentate coordination of a PSi ligand is achieved by reaction of [RhCl(COD)]2 with Ph2P{(o-C6H4CH2)SiMe2H} which leads to the monometallic species [RhCl(SiMe2CH2-o-C6H4-PPh2)2], 5Rh, incorporating two chelating PSi ligands and maintaining a Cl ligand.

Chlorobenzenes are important starting materials for the preparation of commercially valuable triarylphosphines and tetraarylphosphonium salts, but their use for the direct arylation of elemental phosphorus has been elusive. Here we describe a simple photochemical route toward such products. UV-LED irradiation (365 nm) of chlorobenzenes, white phosphorus (P4) and the organic superphotoreductant tetrakis(dimethylamino)ethylene (TDAE) affords the desired arylphosphorus compounds in a single reaction step.

Detailed 31P{1H} NMR spectroscopic investigations provide deeper insight into the complex, multi-step mechanisms involved in the recently reported photocatalytic arylation of white phosphorus (P4). Specifically, these studies have identified a number of previously unrecognized side products, which arise from an unexpected non-innocent behavior of the commonly employed terminal reductant Et3N. The different rate of formation of these products explains discrepancies in the performance of the two most effective catalysts, [Ir(dtbbpy)(ppy)2][PF6] (dtbbpy=4,4′-di-tert-butyl-2,2′-bipyridine) and 3DPAFIPN. Inspired by the observation of PH3 as a minor intermediate, we have developed the first catalytic procedure for the arylation of this key industrial compound. Similar to P4 arylation, this method affords valuable triarylphosphines or tetraarylphosphonium salts depending on the steric profile of the aryl substituents.
