An effective one-pot method for the synthesis of polycyclic phospholanes by in situ reaction of dichlorophosphines (RPCl2, where R = Ph, t-Bu, Me) with norbornane-annulated aluminacyclopentanes was obtained by catalytic cycloalumination of norbornenes. Oxidation of phospholanes gave the corresponding polycyclic phospholane 3-oxides (3-sulfides). The molybdenum complex L2Mo(CO)4 (L = 3-phenyl-3-phosphatricyclo­[5.2.1.02,6]decane) was prepared for the first time by the reaction of 3-phenyl-3-phosphatricyclo­[5.2.1.02,6]decane with molybdenum hexacarbonyl. The structures of the obtained compounds were confirmed by X-ray diffraction and multinuclear 1H, 13C, and 31P NMR spectroscopy.

SummaryAn efficient one-pot process for the synthesis of 3-substituted phospholanes and α,ω-bisphospholanes was developed. The method involves the replacement of aluminium in aluminacyclopentanes, prepared in situ by catalytic cycloalumination of α-olefins and α,ω-diolefins, by phosphorus atoms on treatment with dichlorophosphines (R′PCl2). Hydrogen peroxide oxidation and treatment with S8 of the synthesized phospholanes and α,ω-bisphospholanes afforded the corresponding 3-alkyl(aryl)-1-alkyl(phenyl)phospholane 1-oxides, 3-alkyl(aryl)-1-alkyl(phenyl)phospholane 1-sulfides, bisphospholane 1,1'-dioxides, and bisphospholane 1,1'-disulfides in nearly quantitative yields. The complexes LMo(CO)5 (L = 3-hexyl-1-phenylphospholane, 3-benzyl-1-methylphospholane, 1,2-bis(1-phenylphospholan-3-yl)ethane, and 1,6-bis(1-phenylphospholan-3-yl)hexane were prepared by the reaction of 3-substituted phospholanes and α,ω-bisphospholanes with molybdenum hexacarbonyl. The structure of the complexes was proved by multinuclear 1H, 13C, and 31P spectroscopy.
