Abstract
Selective functionalization of white phosphorus is achieved by addition of ArLi to unique cationic coinage metal η2–P4 complexes. This novel approach allows controlled P–C bond formation using the bulky DmpLi (Dmp = 2,6-Mes2C6H3) and the unencumbered MesLi, giving sterically diverse doubly complexed RP4 butterfly derivatives in a single step.
