Bhowmick T, Orthaber A. Main Group Pentafulvenes: Challenges and Opportunities in Heavy Main Group Isolobal Substitution of Pentafulvene. Chemphyschem 2024:e202300940.

Abstract
Heterofulvenes based on isolobal substitution of carbon fragments by (heavier) main group motifs provide a rich source of structurally interesting building blocks with electronic situations that can vastly differ from all-carbon congeners. Group 13, heavier 14 & 16 fulvenes are rare and pose significant stability challenges, while group 15 derivatives, particularly phosphorus and arsenic, have led to many derivatives with intriguing opto-electronic properties.

Abstract
The heavier main group multiple bonds offer an effective tool for small molecule activation. Transient 2H-phosphinidole working as a reactive phosphadiene system undergoes phospha-Diels-Alder reaction with a wide range of non-activated aromatic carbocycles and heterocycles, including naphthalene, anthracene, phenanthrene, furan, thiophene, pyrrole, pyridine, and benzo-fused heterocycles, affording concise access to a range of polycyclic fused rings feature with phosphorus at the bridgehead. These results demonstrate that non-activated (hetero)arenes are capable of acting as 2π systems in [4+2] cycloaddition with highly reactive 2H-phosphindole complex.

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
We have developed an unprecedented approach for the synthesis of transient 1-phosphafulvenes through three component reactions of phospholes. The generation of 1-phosphafulvenes was demonstrated by in situ [6 + 4] cycloaddition with 2H-phospholes and [6 + 6] self-dimerization. The [6 + 4] and [6 + 6] reaction pathway could be modulated by the starting ketones and aldehydes. The construction of 1-phosphafulvenes is illustrated by a proposed mechanism combining nucleophilic addition of phospholide to the iminium or isomerized azomethine ylide and a [1,5]-shift of phosphole.

Abstract
The coordination chemistry of 1-phosphafulvenes was investigated by employing their [6 + 4] adducts or α-C2-bridged biphospholes as a precursor. Unbridged phosphacymantrenes arise from 1-phosphafulvenes via proton abstraction. α-C2-bridged biphosphacymantrenes are probably yielded by the reductive coupling of 1-phosphafulvene with Mn2(CO)10. The coordination behavior of 1-phosphafulvenes is comparable to that of pentafulvenes, which again demonstrates the phosphorus-carbon analogy in low-coordinate organophosphorus chemistry.

Abstract
An unusual chemoselective 1,1-addition of α-C2-bridged biphospholes to terminal alkynes is reported. The developed protocol provides simple access to the unknown 1,3-diphosphepines, which has potential applications in the coordination and catalyst chemistry. Their Pd and Mo complexes were studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. This method features excellent chemoselectivity, high step and atom economy, mild reaction conditions, and wide substrate scope.

Abstract
A regio- and stereoselective synthesis of unsymmetrically substituted pentafulvenes is reported via the condensation of readily available ynones and amino crotonates under very mild conditions. The mechanism of this 3 + 2 annulation involved a vinylogous Michael addition followed by an intramolecular enamine aldol condensation. Substrates with o-bromo tether further cyclized to pentannulated hydroquinolines through an isomerization/SNAr in the same reaction pot at the elevated temperature.
