Abstract
The addition of Na[BArF24] (BArF24 = tetrakis(3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)borate) to [Pd(PP)Cl2] (PP = 1,1'-bis(phosphino)ferrocene ligands) compounds results in the loss of a chloride ligand and the formation of the dimeric species [Pd2(PP)2(μ-Cl)2][BArF24]2. In most cases, the addition of a monodentate phosphine, PR3, to these dimeric species leads to cleaving of the dimer and formation of [Pd(PP)(PR3)Cl][BArF24]. While these reactions are readily observed via a significant color change, the 31P{1H} NMR spectra offer more significant support, as the singlet for the dimer is replaced with three doublets of doublets. The reaction seems to take place for a wide range of PR3 ligands, although there do appear to be steric limitations to the reaction. The compounds were thoroughly characterized by NMR, and X-ray crystal structures of several of the compounds were obtained. In addition, the ferrocenyl backbone of the 1,1'-bis(phosphino)ferrocene ligands provides an opportunity to examine the oxidative electrochemistry of these compounds. In general, the potential at which oxidations of these compounds occurs shows a dependence on the phosphine substituents.

Abstract
Dioxaphosphabicyclo[2.2.2]octanes (L1-L4) have been prepared in a one-pot reaction from tris(hydroxymethyl)phosphine and various α,β-unsaturated ketones. The non-volatile phosphines oxidise very slowly in air. They possess highly upfield 31P chemical shifts (-59 to -70 ppm), small cone angles (121-140°) and a similar electronic parameter to PPh3. Reaction of L1 with [Rh(acac)(CO)2] gave the complex [Rh(acac)(CO)(L1)] with a ν(CO) of 1981.5 cm-1, whereas reaction L1 with [Rh(CO)2Cl]2 gave [Rh(CO)(L1)2Cl] with a ν(CO) of 1979.9 cm-1, remarkably similar to the CO stretching frequencies reported for analogous PPh3 complexes. The cage phosphines were explored as ligands in rhodium catalysed hydroformylation of 1-octene. All of the ligands gave a linear selectivity to n-nonanal of 68%, regardless of the substituents. However the ligand substituents had a significant effect on the catalyst activity, with increased steric bulk around the coordination environment giving a three-fold increase in aldehyde yield. The phosphines undergo ligand subsitution with [Pd(MeCN)2Cl2] forming square planar trans-[Pd(L)2Cl2] complexes. Subsequent reduction with hydrazine furnishes homoleptic tetravalent [Pd(L1)4] which was applied as a catalyst in Suzuki-Miyaura couplings, furnishing the C-C coupled products in moderate yields.

Abstract
Secondary phosphines are important building blocks in organic chemistry as their reactive P-H bond enables construction of more elaborate molecules. In particular, they can be used to construct tertiary phosphines that have widespread applications as organocatalysts, and as ligands in metal-complex catalysis. We report here a practical synthesis of the bulky secondary phosphine synthon 2,2,6,6-tetramethylphosphinane (TMPhos). Its nitrogen analogue tetramethylpiperidine, known for over a century, is used as a base in organic chemistry. We obtained TMPhos on a multigram scale from an inexpensive air-stable precursor, ammonium hypophosphite. TMPhos is also a close structural relative of di-tert-butylphosphine, a key component of many important catalysts. Herein we also describe the synthesis of key derivatives of TMPhos, with potential applications ranging from CO2 conversion to cross-coupling and beyond. The availability of a new core phosphine building block opens up a diverse array of opportunities in catalysis.
