Abstract

Although numerous polyphosphido complexes have been accessed through the transition-metal-mediated activation and functionalization of white phosphorus (P-4), the selective functionalization of the resulting polyphosphorus ligands in these compounds remains underdeveloped. In this study, we explore the reactions between cyclotetraphosphido cobalt complexes and heterocumulenes, leading to functionalized P-4 ligands. Specifically, the reaction of carbon disulfide (CS2) with [K(18c-6)][(Ar*BIAN)Co(eta(4)-P-4)] ([K(18c-6)]1, 18c-6 = [18]crown-6) affords the adduct [K(18c-6)][(Ar*BIAN)Co(eta(3):eta(1)-P4CS2)] ([K(18c-6)]3), in which CS2 is attached to a single phosphorus atom (Ar* = 2,6-dibenzhydryl-4-isopropylphenyl, BIAN = 1,2-bis(arylimino)acenaphthene diimine). In contrast, the insertion of bis(trimethylsilyl)sulfur diimide S(NSiMe3)(2) into a P-P bond of [K(18c-6)]1 yields [K(18c-6)][(Ar*BIAN)Co(eta(3):eta(1)-P4SN2(SiMe3)(2))] (K(18c-6)]4). This salt further reacts with Me3SiCl to form [(Ar*BIAN)Co(eta(3):eta(1)-P4SN2(SiMe3)(3)] (5), featuring a rare azatetraphosphole ligand. Moreover, treatment of the previously reported complex [(Ar*BIAN)Co(eta(3):eta(1)-P4C(O)tBu)] (2) with isothiocyanates results in P-C bond insertion, yielding [(Ar*BIAN)Co(eta(3):eta(1)-P4C(S)N(R)C(O)tBu)] (6a,b; R = Cy, Ph).
