Popis: 1-(2,4,6-Tri-tert-butylphenyl)-1H-[1,2]diphosphole (12) was isolated from the unintentional and unexpected dehydrohalogenation of 1,3-bis(chloro(2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl)phosphino)propane (5) with DBN. 1H-[1,2]Diphosphole 12 has substantial bond delocalization within the diphosphole system. Remarkably, the shortest P−C bond in the ring (1.725(4) A) is observed for a nominal P−C single bond with the tricoordinated phosphorus atom. The P−P distance (2.0750(18) A) in 12 is closer to the value for a PP bond than for a P−P bond. The sum of the bond angles at the tricoordinated phosphorus atom in 12 is 351.3°, making 12 the most planar 1H-[1,2]diphosphole known to date. The 31P NMR spectrum of 12 contains very similar chemical shifts for the tri- and dicoordinated phosphorus atoms (90.83 and 133.80 ppm), with a large P−P coupling constant (2JPP = 528.2 Hz). This is further evidence of significant delocalization of the lone pair electrons of the tricoordinated phosphorus into the ring system and is consistent ...
