Phosphol is an organic compound with the empirical formula C 4 H 5 P; it is the phosphorus- analogous variant of pyrrole .

history

A phosphole derivative was first discovered in 1953, pentaphenylphosphole followed in 1959. The synthesis of the title compound was described in 1987.

Structural formula of various phospholes

presentation

In general, phospholes are prepared from butadienes and dichlorophosphanes using the McCormack reaction .

Representation of phosphol

In the example shown, the phenyl ring can then be cleaved with butyllithium .

properties

In contrast to other five-membered heterocycles such as pyrrole , thiophene and furan , phosphole has no aromaticity , since phosphorus does not make its lone pair of electrons available to the π-electron pairs within the ring for the purpose of delocalization .

The phospholide anions obtained with the representation explained in the above section dimerize on protonation . This dimerization can be reversed by heating and the thermodynamically more stable exo dimer is obtained in analogy to cyclopentadienes .

vl: phospholide anion, [4 + 2] endo-dimer, 2H-phosphole, exo-dimer

Because of the dimerization, the phosphole can only be characterized at low temperatures by means of 31 P { 1 H} NMR . The chemical shift for the anion is + 76.6ppm, for the phosphole it is −49.2ppm with a 1 J PH coupling constant of 234 Hz ​​in THF.

Further physical data such as boiling point, melting point etc. or toxicological properties are therefore not known.

Transition metal complexes

Metallocenes with phosphole

Analogously to other metallocenes , phosphaferrocenes can be produced from phospholes .

Many other transition metal complexes are known from the phospholyl ligand (phosphacyclopentadienyl) and its derivatives. The ligands (L) appear as 2, 3, 4, 5 or in anionic form as 6-electron donors, with complete localization of the ring π-electrons in terminal complexes such as LM (CO) n for example [(CO) 5 W (PC 4 H 2 Me 2 ) {η 5 -W (CO) 5 }] via metal-bridged 3-electron ligands (µ-L) M 2 (CO) 8 for example (µ-PC 4 H 2 Me 2 ) Mn 2 (CO) 8 up to complete delocalization as η 5 ligand in η 5 - (Me 2 C 4 H 2 P) W (CO) 3 I or in phosphaferrocene.
