Abstract
The electronic properties, coordination chemistry and reactivity of metal complexes of a planar (C2v symmetric) acridane-derived geometrically constrained phosphine, P(NNN), are described. On complexation to metal centers, the phosphine was found to adopt a distorted trigonal pyramidal structure with a high barrier to pyramidal inversion (22.3 kcal/mol at 298 K for Au[P(NNN)]Cl). Spectroscopic data and theoretical calculations carried out at the density functional level of theory indicate that P(NNN) is a moderate σ-donor, with significant π-acceptor properties. Despite the distortion undergone by the phosphorus atom on coordination to metal centers, the P(NNN) ligand retains its ability to react with small molecule substrates with polar E-H bonds (MeOH, NH2Ph, NH3). It does so in a concerted fashion across one of the P-N bonds, and reversibly in the case of amine substrates. This cooperative bond activation chemistry may ultimately prove beneficial in catalysis.

Abstract
Nonclassical P(III) centers have attracted much attention in recent years. Incorporating a P(III) center in a rigid bicyclic platform offers a particularly attractive way to invoke significant geometric distortion of the phosphorus atom that may in turn induce unusual reactivity. Although still relatively scarcely explored, phosphorus centers enforced in a non-C3 symmetry have gained significant traction lately. However, the current scaffolds are based on a relatively limited set of design principles and ligand platforms associated therewith. This work is focussed on the synthesis as well as versatile oxidation, addition and coordination chemistry of a geometrically distorted P(III) species featuring a synthetically modular, nonsymmetric trisamine platform derived from 2-(methylamino)-N-(2-(methylamino)phenyl)benzenesulfonamide.

Abstract
Dibenzo[b,g]phosphindolizine oxide and three types of benzo[e]naphthophosphindolizine oxides have been synthesized by the ring-closing metathesis of benzo[b]phosphole oxide and naphthophosphole oxides with two olefin tethers. Their molecular structures and properties were revealed by X-ray crystallographic analysis, UV-vis spectroscopy, and electrochemical analysis. The number and position of the benzene rings were found to alter the structural geometry and the HOMO/LUMO energy levels, and their effects were investigated by theoretical calculations. Among the phosphindolizine oxide derivatives investigated, only benzo[e]naphtho[2,3-b]phosphindolizine oxide with the naphthalene ring fused at 2,3-positions showed weak yellow fluorescence with a large Stokes shift.

Abstract
The synthesis, isolation, and reactivity of a cationic, geometrically constrained σ3-P compound in the hexaphenyl-carbodiphosphoranyl-based pincer-type ligand (1+) are reported. 1+ reacts with electron-poor fluoroarenes via an oxidative addition-type reaction of the C-F bond to the PIII-center, yielding new fluorophosphorane-type species (PV). This reactivity of 1+ was used in the catalytic hydrodefluorination of Ar-F bonds with PhSiH3, and in a catalytic C-N bond-forming cross-coupling reactions between fluoroarenes and aminosilanes. Importantly, 1+ in these catalytic reactions closely mimics the mode of action of the transition metal-based catalysts.

Abstract
The Mo=PR2 π* orbital in a Mo phosphenium complex acts as acceptor in a new PIII -based Lewis superacid. This Lewis acid (LA) participates in electrophilic Si-H abstraction from E3 SiH to give a Mo-bound secondary phosphine ligand, Mo-PR2 H. The resulting Et3 Si+ ion remains associated with the Mo complex, stabilized by η1 -P-H donation, yet undergoes rapid exchange with an η1 -Si-H adduct of free silane in solution. The equilibrium between these two adducts presents an opportunity to assess the role of this new LA in catalytic reactions of silanes: is the LA acting as a catalyst or as an initiator? Preliminary results suggest that a cycle including the Mo-bound phosphine-silylium adduct dominates in the catalytic hydrosilylation of acetophenone, relative to a putative cycle involving the silane-silylium adduct or "free" silylium.

Abstract
The redox behaviour of sterically constrained tricyclic phosphine 3a was investigated by spectroelectrochemistry. The data suggested a highly negative reduction potential with the reversible formation of a dianionic species. Accordingly, 3a reacted with two equivalents of Li/naphthalene by reductive cleavage of a P-C bond of one of the PC4 heterocycles. The resulting dilithium compound 5 represents a phosphaindole derivative with annulated aromatic C6 and PC4 rings. It is an interesting starting material for the synthesis of new heterocyclic molecules, as was shown by treatment with Me2SiCl2 and PhPCl2. The structures of the products (6 and 7) formally reflect ring expansion by insertion of silylen or phosphinidene fragments into a P-C bond of 3a. Treatment of 3a with H2O2 did not result in the usually observed transfer of a single O atom to phosphorus, but oxidative cleavage of a strained PC4 ring afforded a bicyclic phosphinic acid, R2PO2H.
