Tetracoordinate phosphorus cage compounds with endocyclic P–C bonds: Synthesis and reactivity

Abstract

© 2016, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.The survey summarizes modern methods of synthesis and reactivity of tetracoordinated phosphorus cage compounds containing one or more endocyclic P–C bonds (phosphine oxides, phosphinates and phosphonates, phosphatripticenes and others). Intramolecular cyclization reactions including electrophilic aromatic substitution with unsaturated organophosphorus compounds, reactions of P–H-derivatives with carbonyl compounds as well as cycloaddition reactions involving I–IV-coordinated phosphorus derivatives are considered.
