Popis: | Trialkylphosphine ligands are ubiquitous in catalysis. Via modulation of the steric bulk of these ligands, two central aspects that dictate reactivity and selectivity in catalysis can be controlled: i.e., the coordination sphere and favored oxidation state of the reactive metal center. Within this class of ligands, tricyclohexylphosphine (PCy3) and tri-tert-butylphosphine (PtBu3) are most widely used in catalysis. While the smaller PCy3 favors reactivity via Pd bisphosphine species with the test substrate 4-chlorophenyl triflate 1 and does not form dinuclear Pd(I) complexes upon oxidation of Pd(0), PtBu3 reacts via a monophosphine-ligated Pd complex with 1 and forms dinuclear Pd(I) complexes on oxidation. We herein report that the hybrid ligand P(iPr)(tBu)2, characterized by a cone angle that is between those of PCy3 and PtBu3, features all of these reactivity properties in a single scaffold. This is exemplified in chemoselectivity studies with test system 1, in which the site selectivity could be readily... |
