Catalytic applications of rhodium complexes containing trialkylphosphines

Photocatalytic properties of new cyclopentadienyl and indenyl rhodium(I) carbonyl complexes with water-soluble 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA) and tris(2-cyanoethyl)phosphine

“…On the other hand, during irradiation, loss of CO from the coordination sphere was observed (with and without organic substrate), confirmed by IR spectroscopy. It has been previously proposed, that photolysis of [RhCl(CO)(PR 3 ) 2 ] (PR 3 ¼ PMe 3 and PPh 3 ) at the beginning of the catalytic cycle leads to active [RhCl(PR 3 ) 2 ], however loss of H 2 might be also photochemically driven [10,29]. Because of high activity of rhodium species formed during irradiation, it was difficult to isolate it from reaction mixture for next run of catalysis.…”

Investigation of novel and reinvestigation of known cyclopentadienylphosphanes: News on [1,5] sigmatropic rearrangements

“…This characteristic is of interest as electron rich phosphanes proved to be superior when used in some derivatisation reactions [40,41] or as ligands in catalytic applications [42,43]. When the cyclopentadienylphosphane 2 was synthesised, the isomer 2a was obtained exclusively.…”

Nickel(II)–PPh3 Complexes of S,N‐Substituted Thiosemicarbazones – Structure, DFT Study, and Catalytic Efficiency

“…[1,2] Furthermore, a number of metal complexes with phosphine ligands have been found to catalyze carbon-carbon bond formation. [3][4][5][6] These complexes are generally homogeneous catalysts and find use in Heck [7] and Suzuki [8] reactions, among others.…”
