Diphenylphosphine oxide is an organophosphorus compound with the formula (C6H5)2P(O)H. It is a white solid that soluble in polar organic solvents.[1]
Synthesis
Diphenylphosphine oxide can be prepared by the reaction of phosphonic esters, such as diethylphosphite, with Grignard reagents followed by acid workup:[2]
- (C2H5O)2P(O)H + 3 C6H5MgBr → (C6H5)2P(O)MgBr + C2H5OMgBr
- (C6H5)2P(O)MgBr + HCl → (C6H5)2P(O)H + MgBrCl
Alternatively, it may be prepared by the partial hydrolysis of chlorodiphenylphosphine[1] or diphenylphosphine.[3]
Reactions
Diphenylphosphine oxide exists in equilibrium with its minor tautomer diphenylphosphinous acid, ((C6H5)2POH:
- (C
6H
5)
2P(O)H ⇌ (C
6H
5)
2POH
Diphenylphosphine oxide is used in Buchwald-Hartwig coupling reactions to introduce diphenylphosphino substituents.[1]
Thionyl chloride converts diphenylphosphine oxide to chlorodiphenylphosphine.
Organophosphinous acids are deoxygenated with DIBAH. The resulting secondary phosphines are precursors to phosphine ligands.[4]
