Abstract
The trifluorosilylarsinidene F3SiAs in the triplet ground state has been generated through the reaction of laser-ablated silicon atoms with AsF3 in cryogenic Ne- and Ar-matrices. The reactions proceed with the initial formation of perfluorinated arsasilene FAsSiF2 in the singlet ground state by two As-F bonds insertion reaction on annealing. The trifluorosilylarsinidene F3SiAs was formed via F-migration reactions of FAsSiF2 under irradiation at UV light (λ = 275 nm). The characterization of FAsSiF2 and F3SiAs by IR matrix-isolation spectroscopy is supported by computations at CCSD(T)-F12/aug-cc-pVTZ and B3LYP/aug-cc-pVTZ levels of theory.

Abstract
Dinuclear phosphinidene complexes bridging two transition metal centres are now well established. However, a phosphinidene bridging a metal centre and a main group Lewis acid has not yet been reported. Herein, we describe the generation of a highly reactive phosphinidene complex bridging a tungsten and a boron centre. Furthermore, the synthesis and dyotropic rearrangement of a P-borane adduct of an N-methylimidazole-stabilized neutral, electrophilic terminal phosphinidene complex is reported.

Abstract
Phosphanorcaradienes are an appealing class of phosphorus compounds that can serve as synthons of transient phosphinidenes. However, the synthesis of such species is a formidable task owing to their intrinsic high reactivity. Herein we report straightforward synthesis, characterization and reactivity studies of a phosphanorcaradiene, in which one of the benzene rings in the flanking fluorenyl substituents is intramolecularly dearomatized through attachment to the phosphorus atom. It is facilely obtained by the reduction of phosphorus(III) dichloride precursor with potassium graphite. Despite being thermally robust, it acts as a synthetic equivalent of a transient phosphinidene. It reacts with trimethylphosphine and isonitrile to yield phosphanylidene-phosphorane and 1-phospha-3-azaallene, respectively. When it is treated with one and two molar equivalents of azide, iminophosphane and bis(imino)phosphane are isolated, respectively. Moreover, it is capable of activating ethylene and alkyne to afford [1 + 2] cycloaddition products, as well as oxidative cleavage of Si-H and N-H bonds to yield secondary phosphines. All the reactions proceed smoothly at room temperature without the presence of transition metals. The driving force for these reactions is most likely the high ring-constraint of the three-membered PC2 ring and recovery of the aromaticity of the benzene ring.

Abstract
The perfluorinated silylphosphinidene, F3SiP, in the triplet ground state is generated by the reaction of laser-ablated silicon atoms with PF3 in solid neon and argon matrices. The reactions proceed with the initial formation of a silicon trifluorophosphine complex, F3PSi, in the triplet ground state, and a more stable inserted phosphasilene, FPSiF2, in the singlet ground state upon deposition. The trifluorosilylphosphinidene was formed through F-migration reactions of FPSiF2 and F3PSi following a two-state mechanism under irradiation with visible light (λ = 470 nm) and full arc light (λ > 220 nm), respectively. High-level quantum-chemical methods support the identification of F3PSi, FPSiF2, and F3SiP by matrix-isolation IR spectroscopy.

Abstract
Reaction of the ruthenium carbene complex Cp*(IPr)RuCl (1) (IPr = 1,3-bis(Dipp)imidazol-2-ylidene; Dipp = 2,6-diisopropylphenyl) with sodium phosphaethynolate (NaOCP) led to intramolecular dearomatization of one of the Dipp substituents on the Ru-bound carbene to afford a Ru-bound phosphanorcaradiene, 2. Computations by DFT reveal a transition state characterized by a concerted process whereby CO migrates to the Ru center as the P atom adds to the π system of the aryl group. The phosphanorcaradiene possesses ambiphilic properties and reacts with both nucleophilic and electrophilic substrates, resulting in rearomatization of the ligand aryl group with net P atom transfer to give several unusual metal-bound, P-containing main-group moieties. These new complexes include a metallo-1-phospha-3-azaallene (Ru─P═C═NR), a metalloiminophosphanide (Ru─P═N─R), and a metallophosphaformazan (Ru─P(═N─N═CPh2)2). Reaction of 2 with the carbene 2,3,4,5-tetramethylimidazol-2-ylidene (IMe4) produced the corresponding phosphaalkene DippP═IMe4.

Abstract
The coordination and organometallic chemistry of the f-elements, that is group 3, lanthanide, and actinide ions, supported by nitrogen ligands, e.g. amides, imides, and nitrides, has become well developed over many decades. In contrast, the corresponding f-element chemisty with the heavier pnictogen analogues phosphorus, arsenic, antimony, and bismuth has remained significantly underdeveloped, due largely to a lack of suitable synthetic methodologies and also the inherent hard(f-element)-soft(heavier pnictogen) acid-base mismatch, but has begun to flourish in recent years. Here, we review complexes containing chemical bonds between the f-elements and heavy pnictogens from phosphorus to bismuth that spans five decades of endeavour. We focus on complexes whose identity has been unambiguously established by structural authentication by single-crystal X-ray diffraction with respect to their synthesis, characterisation, bonding, and reactivity, in order to provide a representative overview of this burgeoning area. By highlighting that much has been achieved but that there is still much to do this review aims to inspire, focus and guide future efforts in this area.

Abstract
Phosphinidenes are heavy congeners of nitrenes that have been broadly used as in situ reagents in synthetic phosphorus chemistry and also serve as versatile ligands in coordination with transition metals. However, the detection of free phosphinidenes is largely challenged by their high reactivity and also the lack of suitable synthetic methods, rendering the knowledge about the fundamental properties of this class of low-valent phosphorus compounds limited. Recently, an increasing number of free phosphinidenes bearing prototype structural and bonding properties have been prepared for the first time, thus enabling the exploration of their distinct reactivity from the nitrene analogues. This Concept article will discuss the experimental approaches for the generation of the highly unstable phosphinidenes and highlight their distinct reactivity from the nitrogen analogues so as to stimuate future studies about their potential applications in phosphorus chemistry.

Abstract
ConspectusAs phosphorus analogues of alkylidene (or carbene) and imido (or nitrene) complexes, phosphinidene complexes have received great attention not only for their fundamental scientific merits but also for their ability to build new phosphorus-containing molecules. A large number of phosphinidene complexes in bridging, mononuclear, or terminal coordination modes have been synthesized, and their reactivity has been extensively explored. However, the synthesis of rare-earth metal (scandium, yttrium, and lanthanide metal) phosphinidene complexes lagged behind the transition metal and actinide congeners for decades. Rare-earth metal ions are among the hardest Lewis acids, whereas phosphinidene ligands are soft Lewis bases; rare-earth metal-phosphinidene coordination is thus mismatched based on the Pearson's HSAB principle. The bridging rare-earth metal phosphinidene complexes were not reported until 2008, and the synthesis of the mononuclear and terminal species is even more challenging, which has only recently been achieved.Our group reported a bis(μ2-phosphinidene)dineodymium complex in 2008. In the following >10 years, we have been pursuing the terminal rare-earth metal phosphinidene complexes. Due to the high instability of rare-earth metal-phosphorus multiple bonds, the synthesis and stabilization of these complexes are extremely difficult. Finally, by using suitable phosphinidene ligands and supporting ligands, we obtained the first mononuclear rare-earth metal phosphinidene complex in 2018 and the first terminal rare-earth metal phosphinidene complex in 2020. In these more than ten years of research, we have also found some interesting reactivity of the rare-earth metal phosphinidene complexes. The rare-earth metal bridging phosphinidene complexes can act as two-electron reductants based on the oxidative coupling of two phosphinidene ligands into a diphosphene ligand. The mononuclear rare-earth metal phosphinidene complexes catalyze the hydrogenation of terminal alkenes under mild conditions, and the joint experimental/DFT studies indicate that the hydrogenation reaction proceeds in a 1,2-addition/elimination mechanism rather than the common σ-bond metathesis mechanism. These reactivities are new and important for the rare-earth metal complexes. In addition, the ligand design in our study may contribute to the synthesis of rare-earth metal-arsenic multiple bonding complexes and alkaline-earth metal-phosphorus multiple bonding complexes, which have not yet been realized. Herein, we present an account of our investigations into rare-earth metal phosphinidene complexes, a trip from bridging one to terminal one. To give the readers an overall image of the development of the rare-earth metal phosphinidene complexes, some findings from other researchers are also included.

Abstract
Two-electron reduction of cyclic alkyl(amino) carbene (cAAC)-supported chloro-phosphinidene cAAC=P-Cl (1) followed by unprecedented thermal rearrangements afforded the alkali metal complexes of (aryl)-(cyclic alkyl(imino)) phosphides 3 a-3 c, 4 a-4 b through migration of the 2,6-diisopropylphenyl (dipp) group from N to the P centre, and the (aryl)-(cyclic alkyl(phosphaalkene)) amide 5 through cleavage of the CMe2 -N bond followed by energetically favoured 5-exo-tet ring-closure in the presence of the alkali metals Cs (3 a-3 c), K (4 a, 4 b), and Li (5). Compound 3 a was found to be photoluminescent (PL), emitting bright orange light under a laboratory UV lamp of wavelength 365 nm with PL quantum yield (ϕPL ) of 2.6 % (λem =600 nm), and an average lifetime (τ) of 4.8 μs. Reaction of 3 a with CuCl and AgOTf afforded (aryl)-(cyclic alkyl(imino)) phosphide-stabilized tetra-nuclear CuI (6), and octa-nuclear AgI (7) clusters, respectively. Moreover, complexes 3 a-3 c provided a direct route for the stabilization of cyclic alkyl(aminoboryl) phosphaalkenes 8 a-8 c when treated with 1-bromo-N,N,N',N'-tetraisopropylboranediamine.

Abstract
Reactions of complexes [MoMCp(μ-PMes*)(CO)6] with H2 and several p-block element (E) hydrides mostly resulted in the cleavage of E-H bonds under mild conditions [M = Re (1a) and Mn (1b); Mes* = 2,4,6-C6H2tBu3]. The reaction with H2 (ca. 4 atm) proceeded even at 295 K to give the hydrides [MoMCp(μ-H)(μ-PHMes*)(CO)6]. The same result was obtained in the reactions with H3SiPh and, for 1a, upon reduction with Na(Hg) followed by protonation of the resulting anion [MoReCp(μ-PHMes*)(CO)6]-. The latter reacted with [AuCl{P(p-tol)3}] to yield the related heterotrimetallic cluster [MoReAuCp(μ-PHMes*)(CO)6{P(p-tol)3}]. The reaction of 1a with thiophenol gave the thiolate-bridged complex [MoReCp(μ-PHMes*)(μ-SPh)(CO)6], which evolved readily to the pentacarbonyl derivative [MoReCp(μ-PHMes*)(μ-SPh)(CO)5]. In contrast, no P-H bond cleavage was observed in reactions of complexes 1a,b with PHCy2, which just yielded the substituted derivatives [MoMCp(μ-PMes*)(CO)5(PHCy2)]. Reactions with HSnPh3 again resulted in E-H bond cleavage, but now with the stannyl group terminally bound to M, while 1a reacted with BH3·PPh3 to give the hydride-bridged derivatives [MoReCp(μ-H)(μ-PHMes*)(CO)5(PPh3)] and [MoReCp(μ-H){μ-P(CH2CMe2)C6H2tBu2}(CO)5(PPh3)], which follow from hydrogenation, C-H cleavage, and CO/PPh3 substitution steps. Density functional theory calculations on the PPh-bridged analogue of 1a revealed that hydrogenation likely proceeds through the addition of H2 to the Mo=P double bond of the complex, followed by rearrangement of the Mo fragment to drive the resulting terminal hydride into a bridging position.

Abstract
Terminal, nondirectional ionic "multiple" bond interactions between group 15 elements and rare-earth metals (Ln) have remained a challenging target until present. Although reports on terminal imide species have accumulated in the meantime, examples of terminal congeners with the higher homologue phosphorus are yet elusive. Herein, we present the synthesis of the first terminal yttrium organophosphinidene complex, TptBu,MeY(═PC6H3iPr2-2,6)(DMAP)2, according to a double-deprotonation sequence previously established for organoimides of the smaller rare-earth metals. Subsequent deprotonation of the primary phosphane H2PC6H3iPr2-2,6 (H2PAriPr) with discrete dimethyl compound TptBu,MeYMe2 in the presence of DMAP under simultaneous methane elimination generated a terminal multiply bonded phosphorus. The primary phosphide intermediates TptBu,MeYMe(HPAriPr) and TptBu,MeYMe(HNPAriPr)(DMAP) are isolable species and were also obtained and fully characterized for holmium and dysprosium. The Lewis acid-stabilized yttrium phosphinidene TptBu,MeY[(μ2-PAriPr)(μ2-Me)AlMe2] was obtained by treatment of H2PAriPr with TptBu,MeYMe(AlMe4) but could not be converted into a terminal phosphinidene via cleavage of trimethylaluminum. The corresponding reaction of H2PAriPr with TptBu,MeYMe(GaMe4) led to adduct [GaMe3(PH2AriPr)] rather than to the formation of a yttrium phosphinidene. The yttrium-phosphorus interaction in the obtained organophosphide and phosphinidene complexes was scrutinized by 31P/89Y NMR spectroscopy and DFT calculations, unambiguously supporting the existence of multiple bonding.

Cycloaddition and C-S Bond Cleavage Processes in Reactions of Heterometallic Phosphinidene-Bridged MoRe and MoMn Complexes with Alkynes and Phenyl Isothiocyanate. Organometallics 2023; 42:2052-2064.

Abstract
Reactions of [MoReCp(μ-PMes*)(CO)6] with internal alkynes RC≡CR yielded the phosphapropenylidene-bridged complexes [MoReCp(μ-κ2P,C:η3-PMes*CRCR)(CO)5] (Mes* = 2,4,6-C6H2tBu3; R = CO2Me, Ph). Terminal alkynes HC≡CR1 gave mixtures of isomers [MoReCp(μ-κ2P,C:η3-PMes*CHCR1)(CO)5] and [MoReCp(μ-κ2P,C:η3-PMes*CR1CH)(CO)5], with the first isomer being major (R1 = CO2Me) or unique (R1 = tBu), indicating the relevance of steric repulsions during the [2 + 2] cycloaddition step between Mo=P and C≡C bonds in these reactions. Similar reactions were observed for [MoMnCp(μ-PMes*)(CO)6]. Addition of ligands to these complexes promoted rearrangement of the phosphapropenylidene ligand into the allyl-like μ-η3:κ1C mode, as shown by the reaction of [MoReCp(μ-κ2P,C:η3-PMes*CHC(CO2Me)}(CO)5] with CN(p-C6H4OMe) to give [MoReCp{μ-η3:κ1C-PMes*CHC(CO2Me)}(CO)5{CN(p-CH4OMe)}2]. The MoRe phosphinidene complex reacted with S=C=NPh to give as major products the phosphametallacyclic complex [MoReCp{μ-κ2P,S:κ2P,S-PMes*C(NPh)S}(CO)5] and its thiophosphinidene-bridged isomer [MoReCp(μ-η2:κ1S-SPMes*)(CO)5(CNPh)]. The first product follows from a [2 + 2] cycloaddition between Mo=P and C=S bonds, with specific formation of P-C bonds, whereas the second one would arise from the alternative cycloaddition involving the formation of P-S bonds, more favored on steric grounds. The prevalence of the μ-η2:κ1S coordination mode of the SPMes* ligand over the μ-η2:κ1p mode was investigated theoretically to conclude that steric congestion favors the first mode, while the kinetic barrier for interconversion between isomers is low in any case.

Abstract
Cationic imidazoliumyl(phosphonio)-phosphanides [LC-P-PR3]+ (1a-e+, LC = 4,5-dimethyl-1,3-diisopropylimidazolium-2-yl; R = alkyl, aryl) are obtained via the nucleophilic fragmentation of tetracationic tetraphosphetane [(LC-P)4][OTf]4 (2[OTf]4) with tertiary phosphanes. They act as [LC-P]+ transfer reagents in phospha-Wittig-type reactions, when converted with various thiocarbonyls, giving unprecedented cationic phosphaalkenes [LC-P═CR2]+ (5a-f[OTf]) or phosphanides [LC-P-CR(NR2')]+ (6a-d[OTf]). Theoretical calculations suggest that three-membered cyclic thiophosphiranes are crucial intermediates of this reaction. To test this hypothesis, treatment of [LC-P-PPh3]+ with phosphaalkenes, that are isolobal to thioketones, permits the isolation of diphosphirane salts 11a,b[OTf]. Furthermore, preliminary studies suggest that the cationic phosphaalkene [LC-P═CPh2]+ may be employed to access rare examples of η2-P═C π-complexes with Pd0 and Pt0 when treated with [Pd(PPh3)4] and [Pt(PPh3)3] for which analogous complexes of neutral phosphaalkenes are scarce. The versatility of [LC-P]+ as a valuable P1 building block was showcased in substitution reactions of the transferred LC-substituent using nucleophiles. This is demonstrated through the reactions of 5a[OTf] and 6c[OTf] with Grignard reagents and KNPh2, providing a convenient, high-yielding access to MesP═CPh2 (16) and otherwise difficult-to-synthesize 1,3-diphosphetane 17 and P-aminophosphaalkenes.

Abstract
Reactions of [MoReCp(μ-PR*)(CO)6] with S8 were strongly dependent on experimental conditions (R* = 2,4,6-C6H2tBu3). When using 1 equiv of sulfur, complex [MoReCp(μ-η2:κ1S-SPR*)(CO)6] was slowly formed at 313 K, with a thiophosphinidene ligand unexpectedly bridging the dimetal center in the novel μ-κ1S:η2 coordination mode, as opposed to the μ-κ1P:η2 mode usually found in related complexes. The latter underwent fast decarbonylation at 363 K to give [MoReCp(μ-η2:η2-SPR*)(CO)5], with a six-electron donor thiophosphinidene ligand rearranged into the rare μ-η2:η2 coordination mode. Depending on reaction conditions, reactions with excess sulfur involved the addition of two or three S atoms to the phosphinidene ligand to give new complexes identified as the dithiophosphinidene-bridged complex [MoReCp(μ-η2:κ2S,S'-S2PR*)(CO)5], its dithiophosphonite-bridged isomer [MoReCp(μ-κ2S,S':κ2S,S'-S2PR*)(CO)5], or the trithiophosphonate-bridged derivative [MoReCp(μ-κ2S,S':κ2S,S'-S3PR*)(CO)5], all of them displaying novel coordination modes of their PRS2 and PRS3 ligands, as determined by X-ray diffraction studies. In contrast, the related MoMn complex yielded [MoMnCp(μ-η2:η2-SPR*)(CO)5] under most conditions. A similar output was obtained in reactions with gray selenium for either MoRe or MoMn phosphinidene complexes, which under different conditions only gave the pentacarbonyl complexes [MoMCp(μ-η2:η2-SePR*)(CO)5] (M = Re, Mn), these providing a new coordination mode for selenophosphinidene ligands.

Abstract
A phosphide nickel(II) phenoxide pincer complex (2) reacts with CO(g) to give a pseudo-tetrahedral nickel(0) monocarbonyl complex (3) possessing a phosphinite moiety. This metal-ligand cooperative (MLC) transformation occurs with a (PPP)Ni scaffold (PPP- = P[2-PiPr2-C6H4]2-), which can accommodate both square planar and tetrahedral geometries. The 2-electron reduction of a nickel(II) species induced by CO coordination involves group transfer to generate a P-O bond. For better mechanistic understanding, a series of nickel(II) phenolate complexes (2a-2e, XC6H4O- (X = OMe, Me, H, and CF3) and pentafluorophenolate) were prepared. Kinetic experimental data reveal that a phenolate species with an electron-withdrawing group reacts faster than those with electron-donating groups. The reaction kinetic experiments were conducted in pseudo-first order conditions at room temperature monitored by UV-vis spectroscopy. A pentafluorophenolate nickel(II) complex (2e) reveals instantaneous reactions even at -40 °C to give a nickel(0) monocarbonyl species (3e) and the reverse reaction is also possible. According to kinetic experiments, the rate determining step (RDS) would be the formation of a 5-coordinate intermediate 4 with a negative entropy value (ΔS‡ < 0), and a positive ρ value based on the Hammett plot indicates that the electron-deficient phenolate leads to a faster CO association. Furthermore, scramble experiments suggest that phenolate de-coordinates from the intermediate 4, which gives a (PPP)Ni-CO species 6. The cationic nickel monocarbonyl intermediate can possess a P--Ni(II), P•-Ni(I), or even a P+-Ni(0) character. Such an inner-sphere electron transfer is suggested when a π-acidic ligand such as CO coordinates to a metal ion. Another possible reaction is homolysis of a Ni-O bond to give P--Ni(I) or P•-Ni(0), when a phenoxyl radical is liberated. Considering the P-O bond formation, closed-shell nucleophilic and open-shell radical pathways are suggested. A phenolate pathway reveals a lower energy state for 2e relative to other complexes (2c and 2d), while its radical pathway undergoes via a higher energy state. Therefore, the formation of a P-O bond may occur with the binding of a closed-shell phenolate to the electron-deficient P center.

Abstract
Phosphenium ions [R2P]+ are important and highly reactive dicoordinate phosphorus species. Herein, we report a rearrangement of the carbocation into the phosphenium cation driven by ring strain. This phosphorus-involved Wagner-Meerwein rearrangement pathway converted the 1-acylphosphirane complex into phosphetane and 1,2-dihydrophosphete derivatives depending on the reaction temperature. The generation of the intermediate phosphenium cation was identified by the intramolecular reaction with ether, which also disclosed its strong Lewis acidity. This work expands the boundary of the phosphorus-carbon analogy.

Abstract
![]()
Reactions of the
heterometallic MoRe complex [MoReCp(μ-PR*)(CO)6]
and its MoMn analogue with some small molecules having N–N
multiple bonds, such as diazoalkanes and organic azides, were investigated
(R* = 2,4,6-C6H2tBu3). Reactions with excess ethyl diazoacetate proceeded
slowly and with concomitant denitrogenation to give complexes [MoMCp(μ-η2P,C:κ2P,O-PR*CHCO2Et)(CO)5], which display a bridging phosphaalkene
ligand in a novel μ-η2:κ2 coordination
mode, while reactions with other diazoalkanes resulted only in the
decomposition of the organic reagent. The MoRe complex reacted with
benzyl- or p-tolyl azide at room temperature to give
the green complexes [MoReCp(μ-η2P,N:κP,N′2-PR*N3R)(CO)6] [R = Bn, p-tol], which display bridging
phosphatriazadiene ligands in a novel 6-electron donor coordination
mode as a result of a formal [2 + 1] cycloaddition of the terminal
N atom of the azide to the Mo–P double bond of the parent complex,
followed by coordination of the distal NR nitrogen to the rhenium
center. Denitrogenation was only observed for the p-tolyl azide derivative, which upon heating at 333 K yielded [MoReCp{μ-κP:κN-PR*N(p-tol)}(CO)6], a molecule displaying a bridging phosphaimine ligand in
a rare κP:κN coordination mode.
Analogous reactions of the MoMn phosphinidene complex proceeded similarly
at 273 K to give the phosphatriazadiene-bridged derivatives [MoMnCp(μ-η2P,N:κ2P,N′-PR*N3R)(CO)6], but these were thermally unstable and
degraded at room temperature to give the mononuclear triazenylphosphanyl
complexes [Mn2(κP,N-PR*NHNNR)(CO)3] as major products, along with small amounts of the phosphaimine-bridged
complex [MoMnCp{μ-κP:κN-PR*N(p-tol)}(CO)6] in the case of the p-tolyl azide derivative. The structure of the new complexes was analyzed
in light of spectroscopic data and single-crystal diffraction studies
on selected examples of each type of complex. Reactions of [MoMCp(μ-PR)(CO)6] (M = Mn,
Re) with N2CHCO2Et involved denitrogenation
and decarbonylation to give derivatives with a phosphaalkene ligand
in a novel μ-κ2:η2 coordination
mode. However, reactions with organic azides involved [2 + 1] cycloaddition
of the terminal nitrogen to the Mo−P double bond of the parent
complex and coordination of the distal NR nitrogen without decarbonylation
to give phosphatriazadiene derivatives, which evolved differently
depending on R and M, to give either phosphaimine or triazenylphosphanyl
derivatives.

Abstract
Cage-opening reactions of the highly strained tri-tert-butylphosphatetrahedrane (1), shown here to function as a synthon of (tri-tert-butylcyclopropenyl)phosphinidene, are described. Treatment of 1 with a base-stabilized silylene led to the corresponding phosphasilene, which was isolated in 72% yield as a red crystalline solid. Phosphinidene transfer was also observed when 1 (2 equiv) was combined with the Wittig reagent Ph3PCH2 to form a diphosphirane (50% isolated yield). The reaction is proposed to proceed through a generated phosphaalkene intermediate, which was characterized by NMR spectroscopy. In addition, we report on nickel-catalyzed phosphinidene transfer to styrene, ethylene, neohexene, and 1,3-cyclohexadiene; the corresponding phosphiranes were isolated in 51-64% yield. Computational studies suggest the intermediacy of a nickel phosphinidene species. Treatment of the ethylene-derived phosphirane product with triflic acid delivered elimination of [tBu3C3]OTf and formation of a P-H bond, illustrating the ability of the tri-tert-butyl cyclopropenyl group to serve as a protecting group that is removable following phosphinidene transfer.

Abstract
ConspectusMolecules and materials with easily tunable electronic structures and properties are at the forefront of contemporary research. π-Conjugation is fundamental in organic chemistry and plays a key role in the design of molecular materials. In this Account, we showcase the applicability of N-heterocyclic vinyl (NHV) substituents based on classical N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) for tuning the structure, properties, and stability of main-group species (E) via π-conjugation and/or π-donation.NHVs such as [(NHC)═CR] (R = H or aryl) are monoanionic ligands formally derived by the deprotonation of N-heterocyclic olefins (NHOs), (NHC)═CHR. Further deprotonation of [(NHC)═CR] (R = H) is viable, giving rise to N-heterocyclic vinylidene (NHVD) species such as (NHC)═C. NHVs and NHVDs feature a highly polarizable exocyclic CNHC═C bond because of the presence of adjacent π-donor nitrogen atoms. The nature of the NHC, in particular the π-acceptor property, has a direct consequence on the polarity of the CNHC═C bond and hence on the magnitude of π-conjugation in the derived molecules. Thus, the electronic structure, especially the energy and shape of frontier molecular orbitals, HOMO and LUMO, of derived species can be fine-tuned by a judicious choice of the carbene unit. For instance, the HOMO of classical diphosphenes (RP═PR) (R = alkyl or aryl) is invariably the phosphorus lone-pair orbital, while the P═P π-bond is HOMO - 1 or HOMO - 2. In strong contrast, the HOMO of divinyldiphosphenes (R = NHV) is mainly the P═P π-bond. This is owing to the π-conjugation, resulting in the lowering of the LUMO and raising of the HOMO energy. They have a remarkably small HOMO-LUMO energy gap (4.15-4.50 eV) and readily undergo 1e-oxidations, giving rise to stable radical cations and dications.By employing a similar approach, one can access divinyldiarsenes and the corresponding radical cations and dications as crystalline solids. The use of divinyldiphosphenes and divinyldiarsenes as promising ligands in the stabilization of metalloradicals has been shown. By a logical selection of singlet carbenes, stable 2-phosha-1,3-butadiene and 2-arsa-1,3-butadiene compounds, as well as related radical cations and dications, can be prepared as crystalline solids.The relevance of NHV ligands as potent π-donors has been demonstrated for the stabilization of elusive electrophilic phosphinidene and arsinidene complexes {(NHV)E}Fe(CO)4 (E = P or As). Moreover, stable singlet diradicaloid [(NHC)CP]2 and p-quinodimethane derivatives [(NHC)CP2]2 based on an NHVD framework are accessible as stable solids.In this Account, a special emphasis is given to the contributions from this laboratory. The author hopes that this Account will serve as a useful reference guide for researchers interested in studying and applying NHV and NHVD scaffolds in modern molecular chemistry and materials sciences.

Abstract
The reactions of the N-heterocyclic carbene-phosphinidene adducts (NHC)PSiMe3 and (NHC)PH with the dinuclear ruthenium and osmium complexes [(η6-p-cymene)MCl2]2 (M = Ru, Os) afforded the half-sandwich complexes [(η6-p-cymene){(NHC)P}MCl] and [(η6-p-cymene){(NHC)PH}MCl2] with two- and three-legged piano-stool geometries, respectively (NHC = IDipp, IMes; IDipp = 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene; IMes = 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene). The complexes were initially tested as precatalysts for the hydroboration of benzonitrile, and the most active species, the ruthenium complex [(η6-p-cymene){(IMes)P}RuCl], was further used for the efficient hydroboration of a wide range (ca. 50 substrates) of nitriles, carboxylic esters, and carboxamides in neat pinacolborane (HBpin) under comparatively mild reaction conditions (60-80 °C, 3-5 mol % catalyst loading). Preliminary mechanistic and kinetic studies are reported, and stoichiometric reactions with HBpin indicate the initial formation of the monohydride complex [(η6-p-cymene){(IMes)P}RuH] as the putative catalytically active species.

Abstract
Halide abstraction of the carbene-coordinated pnictinidenes (MecAAC)EGa(Cl)L (E = As 1, Sb 2, Bi 3, MecAAC = [H2C(CMe2)2NDipp]C; L = HC[C(Me)NDipp]2; Dipp = 2,6-i-Pr2C6H3) yielded the series of cationic group 15 compounds [(MecAAC)EGaL][Al(ORF)4] (E = As 4, Sb 5; Al(ORF)4 = Al(OC(CF3)3)4) and [(MecAAC)EGaL][B(ArF)4] (E = Sb 6, Bi 7; B(ArF)4 = B[C6H3(CF3)2]4), which were characterized by heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy and sc-XRD. The electronic nature of the cations [(MecAAC)EGaL]+ is controlled by the central pnictogen atom, according to quantum chemical calculations. The calculations furthermore demonstrated that compounds containing the lighter pnictogens (E = N, P) are best described as heteronuclear allyl cations, whereas heavier pnictogen atoms (E = As, Sb, Bi) serve as a trap for the positive charge, resulting in carbene-stabilized heterovinyl-type structures.

Abstract
The lithium salts of anionic N‐heterocyclic thiones and selones [{(WCA‐IDipp)E}Li(toluene)] (1: E=S; 2: E=Se; WCA=B(C6F5)3, IDipp=1,3‐bis(2,6‐diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin‐2‐ylidene), which contain a weakly coordinating anionic (WCA) borate moiety in the imidazole backbone were reacted with Me3SiCl, to furnish the silylated adducts (WCA‐IDipp)ESiMe3 (3: E=S; 4: E=Se). The reaction of the latter with [(η5‐C5Me5)MCl2]2 (M=Rh, Ir) afforded the rhodium(III) and iridium(III) half‐sandwich complexes [{(WCA‐IDipp)E}MCl(η5‐C5Me5)] (5–8). The direct reaction of the lithium salts 1 and 2 with a half or a full equivalent of [M(COD)Cl]2 (M=Rh, Ir) afforded the monometallic complexes [{(WCA‐IDipp)E}M(COD)] (9–12) or the bimetallic complexes [μ2‐{(WCA‐IDipp)E}M2(COD)2(μ2‐Cl)] (13–16), respectively. The bonding situation in these complexes has been investigated by means of density functional theory (DFT) calculations, revealing thiolate or selenolate ligand character with negligible metal‐chalcogen π‐interaction.

Abstract
Two new bidentate ferrocene-bridged bis(N-heterocyclic carbene-phospinidenes) (bisNHCPs) were successfully isolated by treating 1,1'-bis-(dichlorophosphine)ferrocene with N-heterocyclic carbenes, followed by dechlorination using sodium naphthalenide. The bisNHCPs were used in complexation of various Sn(II) halides and Sn(II) bistriflate (SnX2 with X = Cl, Br, I, OTf). Transmetalation to a CuCl complex and Sn(II) transfer to a bisimine was performed to investigate the stannyliumylidenes' reactivity.

Abstract
The catalytic metathesis of C=C bonds is a textbook reaction that has no parallel in the widely studied area of multiple bonds involving heavier p-block elements. A high-yielding P=C bond metathesis of phosphaalkenes (ArP=CPh2 , Ar=Mes, o-Tol, Ph) has been discovered that is catalyzed by N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC=Me2 IMe, Me2 Ii Pr). The products are cyclic oligomers formally derived from ArP=PAr [i. e. cyclo-(ArP)n ; n=3, 4, 5, 6] and Ph2 C=CPh2 . Preliminary mechanistic studies of this remarkable transformation have established NHC=PAr (Ar=Mes, o-Tol, Ph) as key phosphinidene transfer agents. In addition, novel cyclic intermediates, such as, cyclo-(ArP)2 CPh2 and cyclo-(ArP)4 CPh2 have also been observed. This work represents a rare application of non-metal-based catalysts for transformations involving main-group elements.

Abstract
The reaction of the intramolecular germylene‐phosphine Lewis pair (o‐PPh2)C6H4GeAr* (1) with Group 15 element trichlorides ECl3 (E=P, As, Sb) was investigated. After oxidative addition, the resulting compounds (o‐PPh2)C6H4(Ar*)Ge(Cl)ECl2 (2: E=P, 3: E=As, 4: E=Sb) were reduced by using sodium metal or LiHBEt3. The molecular structures of the phosphine‐stabilized phosphinidene (o‐PPh2)C6H4(Ar*)Ge(Cl)P (5), arsinidene (o‐PPh2)C6H4(Ar*)Ge(Cl)As (6) and stibinidene (o‐PPh2)C6H4(Ar*)Ge(Cl)Sb (7) are presented; they feature a two‐coordinate low‐valent Group 15 element. After chloride abstraction, a cyclic germaphosphene [(o‐PPh2)C6H4(Ar*)GeP] [B(C6H3(CF3)2)4] (8) was isolated. The 31P NMR data of the germaphosphene were compared with literature examples and analyzed by quantum chemical calculations. The phosphinidene was treated with [iBu2AlH]2, and the product of an Al−H addition to the low‐valent phosphorus atom (o‐PPh2)C6H4(Ar*)Ge(H)P(H)Al(C4H9)2 (9) was characterized.

Abstract
The titled 2,1-benzazaphosphole (1) (i. e. ArP, where Ar=2-(DippN=CH)C6 H4 , Dipp=2,6-iPr2 C6 H3 ) showed a spectacular reactivity behaving both as a reactive heterodiene in hetero-Diels-Alder (DA) reactions or as a hidden phosphinidene in the coordination toward selected transition metals (TMs). Thus, 1 reacts with electron-deficient alkynes RC≡CR (R=CO2 Me, C5 F4 N) giving 1-phospha-1,4-dihydro-iminonaphthalenes 2 and 3, that undergo hydrogen migration producing 1-phosphanaphthalenes 4 and 5. Compound 1 is also able to activate the C=C double bond in selected N-alkyl/aryl-maleimides RN(C(O)CH)2 (R=Me, tBu, Ph) resulting in the addition products 7-9 with bridged bicyclic [2.2.1] structures. The binding of the maleimides to 1 is semi-reversible upon heating. By contrast, when 1 was treated with selected TM complexes, it serves as a 4e donor bridging two TMs thus producing complexes [μ-ArP(AuCl)2 ] (10), [(μ-ArP)4 Ag4 ][X]4 (X=BF4 (11), OTf (12)) and [μ-ArP(Co2 (CO)6 )] (13). The structure and electron distribution of the starting material 1 as well as of other compounds were also studied from the theoretical point of view.

Abstract
This paper describes the synthesis and reactivity of [η5-1,3-(Me3Si)2C5H3]2U([double bond, length as m-dash]P-2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)(OPMe3) (6) which is accessible from a ligand exchange reaction between [η5-1,3-(Me3Si)2C5H3]2U([double bond, length as m-dash]P-2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)(OPPh3) (2) and Me3PO at ambient temperature. Phosphinidene 6 exhibits no reactivity towards internal alkynes, but readily reacts with various hetero-unsaturated molecules such as isothiocyanates, aldehydes, nitriles, isonitriles, and organic azides, forming uranium sulfido, oxido, imido, and uranaheterocyclic compounds. Nevertheless, with the bidentate ortho-dicyanobenzene o-C6H4(CN)2 the zwitterionic species [η5-1,3-(Me3Si)2C5H3]2U[NHC(N){C6H4CP(2,4,6-iPr3C6H2)CH2PMe2O}] (13) is isolated in good yield. Moreover, 6 converts with Ph2S2 to the uranium(iii) phenylthiolate compound [η5-1,3-(Me3Si)2C5H3]2USPh(OPMe3) (7) in good isolated yield. Furthermore, the influence of the Lewis base on the reactivity of the uranium phosphinidene metallocenes has also been evaluated.

Abstract
Molecules with different resonance structures of similar importance, such as heterocumulenes and mesoionics, are prominent in many applications of chemistry, including 'click chemistry', photochemistry, switching and sensing. In coordination chemistry, similar chameleonic/schizophrenic entities are referred to as ambidentate/ambiphilic or cooperative ligands. Examples of these had remained, for a long time, limited to a handful of archetypal compounds that were mere curiosities. In this Review, we describe ambiphilicity - or, rather, 'charge frustration' - as a general guiding principle for ligand design and functional group transfer. We first give a historical account of organic zwitterions and discuss their electronic structures and applications. Our discussion then focuses on zwitterionic ligands and their metal complexes, such as those of ylidic and redox-active ligands. Finally, we present new approaches to single-atom transfer using cumulated small molecules and outline emerging areas, such as bond activation and stable donor-acceptor ligand systems for reversible 1e- chemistry or switching.

Abstract
The N-heterocyclic carbene-phosphinidene adducts (NHC)PH were reacted with AlMe3 in toluene to afford the monoaluminum complexes [{(IDipp)PH}AlMe3 ] and [{(IMes)PH}AlMe3 ] (IDipp=1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene, IMes=1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazolin-2-ylidene). In contrast, the dialuminum complex [{(Me IMes)PH}(AlMe3 )2 ] was obtained for Me IMes=1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-4,5-dimethylimidazolin-2-ylidene. These complexes served as initiators for the efficient ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide in toluene at 60 °C. High degrees of isoselectivity were found for the poly(rac-lactide) obtained in the presence of the monoaluminum complexes (Pm up to 0.92, Tm up to 191 °C), whereas almost atactic polymers were produced by the dialuminum complex. Detailed mechanistic studies reveal that the polymerization proceeds via a coordination-insertion mechanism with the carbene-phosphinidene ligands acting as stereodirecting groups.

Abstract
While the archetypal free phosphinidene, H-P, has been studied for over a century, reports on uncomplexed, univalent phosphorus compounds are very sparse. Here we demonstrate production of HCCP in solid argon through the UV-induced rearrangement and subsequent dehydrogenation of phosphapropyne, CH3 CP. Migration of H atoms along the CCP backbone of CH3 CP resulted in production of the previously unobserved species 1-phosphapropadiene, CH2 =C=PH, followed by ethynylphosphine, HCCPH2 .

Abstract
Mixed-valence compounds feature the same atoms but in different formal oxidation states. This research field is largely dominated by metal-based solid-state chemistry and has been intensively studied in recent years. By contrast, the situation is different for molecular main group element compounds and to establish 1,1'-bifunctional groups remained a particular challenge. Here a detailed study on 1,1'-bifunctional mixed-valence main group compounds possessing a P-P bond is presented, and the fundamental role of the metal complex fragments is discussed. Based on the generation of a transient phosphanylidene-phosphinidenoid complex a dinuclear diphosphene complex was obtained possessing an unprecedented ambident reactivity, i.e., 1,2-addition or 1,1-addition products were obtained depending on the nature of the reagent. The 1,1-addition products represent stable hitherto unknown 1,1'-bifunctional phosphanylidene-phosphorane complexes which have been confirmed by X-ray diffraction studies. Detailed state-of-the-art DFT calculations provide insight into bonding and reaction pathways.

Abstract
N,N-Diphenylamino- and N,N-dicyclohexylamino-substituted dichlorophosphane W(CO)5 complexes 1a,b were used to generate thermally very labile Li/Cl phospinidenoid W(CO)5 complexes 2a,b. The formation of transient complex 2a was confirmed via low-temperature 31P{1H} NMR spectroscopy, but further strong evidence for the formation of transient complexes 2a,b was obtained from reactions with methanol and methylamine as formal E-H insertions (E = O, N) furnished complexes 3a,b and 4a. By using toluene in the absence of donor ligands, the primarily nucleophilic complexes 2a,b were converted into electrophilic terminal phosphinidene complexes 5a,b which was deduced from specific trapping reactions using tolane, 1-pentene and 1-hexene and thus obtained 1H-phosphirene 6 and phosphirane complexes 7 and8. The state-of-the-art DFT calculations reveal insights into the possible reaction pathways and exclude a direct reaction of 2a,b with alkene trapping reagents.

Abstract
The phospha-Wittig reagent MesTerPPMe3 (MesTer = 2,6-{2,4,6-Me3-C6H2}-C6H3) and arsa-Wittig reagent DipTerAsPMe3 (DipTer = 2,6-{2,6-iPr2-C6H3}-C6H3) have been employed to synthesize the titanocene complexes Cp2Ti(PMe3)PnAr (Pn = P, As) with terminal phosphinidene or arsinidene ligands, respectively. Ab initio studies show that the description as singlet biradicaloids in their ground state is warranted.
