Visible-Light-Induced Cascade Reaction of Isocyanides and N-Arylacrylamides with Diphenylphosphine Oxide via Radical C-P and C-C Bond Formation

An effective photoredox-mediated tandem phosphorylation/cyclization reaction of diphenylphosphine oxide with three types of radical acceptors leads to P(O)Ph₂-containing phenanthridines, isoquinolines, and indolin-2-ones by formation of both C-P and C-C bonds. [Ir(ppy)₂(dtbpy)]PF₆ (1 mol %) was used as the catalyst, CsF or Cs₂CO₃ as the base, and K₂S₂O₈ as the oxidant. A series of functional groups can be tolerated at room temperature. Moderate to good yields were generated.

Nucleophile promoted gold redox catalysis with diazonium salts: C-Br, C-S and C-P bond formation through catalytic Sandmeyer coupling

Gold-catalyzed C-heteroatom (C-X) coupling reactions are evaluated without using sacrificial oxidants. Vital to the success of this methodology is the nucleophile-assisted activation of aryldiazonium salts, which could be an effective oxidant for converting Au(i) to Au(iii) even without the addition of an assisting ligand or photocatalyst. By accelerating the reaction kinetics to outcompete C-C homo-coupling or diazonium dediazoniation, gold-catalyzed Sandmeyer reactions were achieved with different nucleophiles, forming C-Br, C-S and C-P bonds in high yields and selectivities.

Nickel-catalysed P–C bond formation via P–H/C–CN cross coupling reactions

Nickel-catalysed P–H/C–CN cross coupling reactions take place efficiently under mild reaction conditions affording the corresponding sp²C–P bonds. This transformation provides a convenient method for the preparation of both arylphosphines and arylphosphine oxides from the readily available P–H compounds and arylnitriles.

A dual catalytic strategy for carbon-phosphorus cross-coupling via gold and photoredox catalysis

A new method for the P-arylation of aryldiazonium salts with H-phosphonates via dual gold and photoredox catalysis is described.

A new method for the P-arylation of aryldiazonium salts with H-phosphonates via dual gold and photoredox catalysis is described. The reaction proceeds smoothly at room temperature in the absence of base and/or additives, and offers an efficient approach to arylphosphonates. The reaction is proposed to proceed through a photoredox-promoted generation of an electrophilic arylgold(iii) intermediate that undergoes coupling with the H-phosphonate nucleophile.

This procedure also avoids hazardous solvents and is therefore an eco-friendly alternative to the existing methods.
