Abstract
![]()
While Diels–Alder
(DA) reactions involving neutral or cationic
dienophiles are well-known, the characteristics of the analogous reactions
with anionic dienophiles are practically unexplored. Herein we present
the first comparative computational investigations on the characteristics
of DA cycloadditions with anionic dienophiles on the basis of the
reactions of [ECX]− anions (E = P, As; X = O, S,
Se) with 2H-pyran-2-one. All of these reactions were
found to be both kinetically and thermodynamically feasible, enabling
synthetic access toward 2-phosphaphenolate and arsaphenolate derivatives
in the future. This study also reveals that the [ECO]− anions show clear regioselectivity, while for [ECS]− and [ECSe]− anions, the two possible reaction
channels have very similar energetics. Additionally, the activation
barriers for the [ECO]− anions are lower than those
of the heavier analogues. The observed differences can be traced back
to the starkly differing nucleophilic character of the pnictogen center
in the anions, leading to a barrier-lowering effect in the case of
the [ECO]− anions. Furthermore, analysis of the
geometries and electron distributions of the corresponding transition
states revealed structure–property relationships, and thus
a direct comparison of the cycloaddition reactivity of these anions
was achieved. Along one of the two pathways, a good correlation was
found between the activation barriers and suitable nucleophilicity
descriptors (nucleophilic Parr function and global nucleophilicity).
Additionally, the tendency of the reaction energies can be explained
by the changing aromaticity of the products. In contrast to the phosphaethynolate [PCO]− anion, the cycloaddition reactivity of the heavier congeners ([ECX]−, where E = P, As and X = O, S, Se) is unexplored.
In this computational study, the Diels−Alder reaction between
the known [ECX]− anions and 2-pyrone was employed
to compare the reactivity patterns. The first activation barrier of
these reactions correlates with the nucleophilicity of the anions,
indicating a barrier-lowering effect. The feasibility of the studied
reactions, leading to P and As heterocycles, was also explored.

Abstract
Phosphaketenes are versatile reagents in organophosphorus chemistry. We herein report on the synthesis of novel bis‐phosphaketenes, LM(PCO)2 (M=Ga 2 a, In 2 b; L=HC[C(Me)N(Ar)]2; Ar=2,6‐i‐Pr2C6H3) by salt metathesis reactions and their reactions with LGa to metallaphosphenes LGa(OCP)PML (M=Ga 3 a, In 3 b). 3 b represents the first compound with significant In−P π‐bonding contribution as was confirmed by DFT calculations. Compounds 3 a and 3 b selectively activate the N−H and O−H bonds of aniline and phenol at the Ga−P bond and both reactions proceed with a rearrangement of the phosphaethynolate group from Ga−OCP to M−PCO bonding. Compounds 2–5 are fully characterized by heteronuclear (1H, 13C{1H}, 31P{1H}) NMR and IR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and single crystal X‐ray diffraction (sc‐XRD).

Abstract
Over the past decade, the reactivity of 2-phosphaethynolate (OCP-), a heavier analogue of the cyanate anion, has been the subject of momentous interest in the field of modern organometallic chemistry. It is used as a precursor to novel phosphorus-containing heterocycles and as a ligand in decarbonylative processes, serving as a synthetic equivalent of a phosphinidene derivative. This perspective aims to describe advances in the reactivities of phosphaethynolate and arsaethynolate anions (OCE-; E = P, As) with main-group element, transition metal, and f-block metal scaffolds. Further, the unique structures and bonding properties are discussed based on spectroscopic and theoretical studies.

Abstract
The 2-phosphaethynolate (OCP) anion has found versatile applications across the periodic table but remains underexplored in group 2 chemistry due to challenges in isolating thermally stable complexes. By rationally modifying their coordination environments using 1,3-dialkyl-substituted N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), we have now isolated and characterized thermally stable, structurally diverse, and hydrocarbon soluble magnesium phosphaethynolate complexes (2, 4Me, and 8-10), including the novel phosphaethynolate Grignard reagent (2iPr). The methylmagnesium phosphaethynolate and magnesium diphosphaethynolate complexes readily activate dioxane with subsequent H-atom abstraction to form [(NHC)MgX(μ-OEt)]2 [X = Me (3) or OCP (8 and 9)] complexes. Their reactivities increased with the Lewis acidity of the Mg2+ cation and may be attenuated by Lewis base saturation or a slight increase in carbene sterics. Solvent effects were also investigated and led to the surreptitious isolation of an ether-free sodium phosphaethynolate (NHC)3Na(OCP) (6), which is soluble in aromatic hydrocarbons and can be independently prepared by the reaction of NHC and [Na(dioxane)2][OCP] in toluene. Under forcing conditions (105 °C, 3 days), the magnesium diphosphaethynolate complex (NHC)3Mg(OCP)2 (10) decomposes to a mixture of organophosphorus complexes, among which a thermal decarbonylation product [(NHC)2PI][OCP] (11) was isolated.

Abstract
![]()
The cyanide ion plays
a key role in a number of industrially relevant
chemical processes, such as the extraction of gold and silver from
low grade ores. Metal cyanide compounds were arguably some of the
earliest coordination complexes studied and can be traced back to
the serendipitous discovery of Prussian blue by Diesbach in 1706.
By contrast, heavier cyanide analogues, such as the cyaphide ion,
C≡P–, are virtually unexplored despite the
enormous potential of such ions as ligands in coordination compounds
and extended solids. This is ultimately due to the lack of a suitable
synthesis of cyaphide salts. Herein we report the synthesis and isolation
of several magnesium–cyaphido complexes by reduction of iPr3SiOCP with a magnesium(I) reagent.
By analogy with Grignard reagents, these compounds can be used for
the incorporation of the cyaphide ion into the coordination sphere
of metals using a simple salt-metathesis protocol.

Abstract
![]()
The
synthesis and thermal redox chemistry of the first antimony
(Sb)– and bismuth (Bi)–phosphaketene adducts are described.
When diphenylpnictogen chloride [Ph2PnCl (Pn = Sb or Bi)]
is reacted with sodium 2-phosphaethynolate [Na[OCP]·(dioxane)x], tetraphenyldipnictogen (Ph2Pn–PnPh2) compounds are produced, and an insoluble
precipitate forms from solution. In contrast, when the N-heterocyclic carbene adduct (NHC)–PnPh2Cl is combined
with [Na[OCP]·(dioxane)x], Sb–
and Bi–phosphaketene complexes are isolated. Thus, NHC serves
as an essential mediator for the reaction. Immediately after the formation
of an intermediary pnictogen–phosphaketene NHC adduct [NHC–PnPh2(PCO)], the NHC ligand transfers from the Pn center to the
phosphaketene carbon atom, forming NHC–C(O)P-PnPh2 [Pn = Sb (3) or Bi (4)]. In the solid
state, 3 and 4 are dimeric with short intermolecular
Pn–Pn interactions. When compounds 3 and 4 are heated in THF at 90 and 70 °C, respectively, the
pnictogen center PnIII is thermally reduced to PnII to form tetraphenyldipnictines (Ph2Pn–PnPh2) and an unusual bis-carbene-supported OCP
salt, [(NHC)2OCP][OCP] (5). The formation
of compound 5 and Ph2Pn–PnPh2 from 3 or 4 is unique in comparison to
the known thermal reactivity for group 14 carbene–phosphaketene
complexes, further highlighting the diverse reactivity of [OCP]− with main-group elements. All new compounds have been
fully characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, multinuclear
NMR spectroscopy (1H, 13C, and 31P), infrared spectroscopy, and elemental analysis (1, 2, and 5). The electronic structure of 5 and the mechanism of formation were investigated using density
functional theory (DFT). An N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) was used
to support the otherwise unstable Ph2Sb—P=C=O
and Ph2Bi—P=C=O moieties. Exploration
of the thermal chemistry of these NHC−phosphaketene adducts
reveals the formation of the salt [NHC2OCP][OCP]. This
present work demonstrates the thermal chemistry of the 2-phospaethynolate
anion with heavier pnictogens (Sb and Bi).

Abstract
Annulated oxy-substituted 1,3,4-azadiphospholides such as the anion in Na[1] are readily accessible phosphorus heterocycles made from the phosphaethynolate anion (OCP)- and 2-chloropyridines. The sodium salt Na[1] reacts with oxophilic element halides such as OPCl3, PhSiCl3, PhBCl2 and CpTiCl3 at room temperature to form exclusively the oxygen bound tris-substituted compounds E(1)3 (with E = OP, PhSi, PhB- or CpTi). Six equivalents of Na[1] with group four metal chlorides MCl4 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) form cleanly the hexa-substituted dianions (Na2[M(1)6]) which are isolated in excellent yields. The titanium complexes are deeply coloured species due to ligand to metal charge transfer (LMCT) excitations. In all complexes, the phosphorus atoms of the azadiphosphole moieties are able to coordinate to a soft metal center as shown in their reactions with [Mo(CO)3Mes], yielding complexes in which the Mo(CO)3 binds in a fac manner. Functionalization of the oxy group with amino phosphanes allows isolation of tridentate ligands, which have been used as synthons for macrocyclic molybdenum carbonyl complexes.

Abstract
Transmetallation studies with the phosphaethynolate ion, [OCP]-, have largely resulted in coordination according to classical Lewis acid-base theory. That is, for harder early transition metal ions, O-bound coordination has been observed, whereas in the case of softer late transition metal ions, P-bound coordination predominates. Herein, we report the use of a V(iii) complex, namely [(nacnac)VCl(OAr)] (1) (nacnac- = [ArNC(CH3)]2CH; Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3), to transmetallate [OCP]- and bind via the P-atom as [(nacnac)V(OAr)(PCO)] (2), the first example of a 3d early transition metal that binds [OCP]-via the P-atom. Full characterization studies of this molecule including HFEPR spectroscopy, SQuID measurements, and theoretical studies are presented.

Abstract
In all likelihood the first synthesis of the phosphaethynolate anion, PCO- , was performed in 1894 when NaPH2 was reacted with CO in an attempt to make Na(CP) accompanied by elimination of water. This reaction was repeated 117 years later when it was discovered that Na(OCP) and H2 are the products of this remarkable transformation. Li(OCP) was synthesized and fully characterized in 1992 but this salt proved to be too unstable to allow for a detailed investigation of its chemistry. It was not until the heavier analogues of this lithium salt were isolated, Na(OCP) and K(OCP) (both of which are remarkably stable and can be even dissolved in water), that the chemistry of this new functional group could be explored. Here we review the chemistry of the 2-phosphaethynolate anion, a heavier phosphorus-containing analogue of the cyanate anion, and describe the wide breadth of chemical transformations for which it has been thus far employed. Its use as a ligand, in decarbonylative and deoxygenative processes, and as a building block for novel heterocycles is described. In the mere twenty-six years since Becker first reported the isolation of this remarkable anion, it has become a fascinating reagent for the synthesis of a vast library of, often unprecedented, molecules and compounds.

Abstract
Over the course of the last six years, research on the synthesis and reactivity of molecular metal phosphaketenes (M-PCO) has gained increasing attention. However, lanthanide complexes of the heavier group 15 cyanate analogue PCO- have not been investigated so far. Herein we present exemplar studies on the nature and reactivity of rare-earth phosphaethynolato-complexes using three characteristic representatives of the rare-earth metals: Y, Nd and Sm. Our investigations comprise both +2 and +3 redox states, and one defined amidinate-based ligand set, as well as novel reaction pathways in the presence of the sequestering agents 18-crown-6 and 2,2,2-crypt.
