Novel functionalised P-ligands: advances and application

Novel endo- and exocyclic phosphine ligands possessing different functionalities obtained by reduction of the PO precursors with desired stereochemistry are discussed. The diastereoselective deoxygenation including the catalytic reduction processes, the factors defining the reactivity and the role of the substituents on the stability of phosphorus atom configuration in a series of 3-aryl-3-phosphabicyclo[3.1.0]hexanes are reported. The complexation features of the ligands with Rh(III) and Pd(II) were examined and Rh(III) complexes were tested in styrene hydroformylation showing the structure–activity dependence.
