Coordination Behavior of the (Diphenylphosphanyl)[α‐(2‐pyridyl)benzyl]amide Anion toward Lithium and Zinc Cations

Abstract: A two-step synthesis allows the preparation of [α-(2-pyridyl)-benzyl]amine (1) in good yield. Phosphanylation in the presence of triethylamine gives (diphenylphosphanyl)[α-(2-pyridyl)benzyl]amine (2), which crystallizes as a racemate in the centrosymmetric triclinic space group P1. The P-N bond lengths exhibit an average value of 168.3 pm. Lithiation of 2 with n-butyllithium yields dimeric semi(tetrahydrofuran)lithium (diphenylphosphanyl)[α-(2-pyridyl)benzyl]amide (3) with the lithium atoms in different enviro… Show more

“…The transformation of green to yellow ( 2 ) is monitored spectrophotometrically in deaerated tetrahydrofuran (THF) at 313 K (Figure ). 1 H NMR of the in situ generated green solution in benzene- d 6 fails to display the characteristic resonance of C α –H around 3–5.5 ppm (Figure S5f), possibly implying involvement of the dianionic intermediate ( DA , Figure ) in the conversion sequence. , DA 2 (Figure ) was selectively chosen to follow because phenyl substitution at the methine carbon of HL2 has extended additional stability to the system via conjugation of C α – ( DA 2 ) into the phenyl ring along with the pyridyl moiety.…”

“…Therefore, a common dianionic intermediate ( DA ), generated via activation of the acidic methylene group of PA upon coordination to electrophilic {Ru­(H/Cl)­(CO)­(PPh 3 ) 2 } or {Ru­(pap) 2 }, is considered to correlate the reactivity patterns. , The reactive C α center of DA 1 (no longer “spectator”) reacts with the molecular oxygen in an intermolecular fashion to yield 1 . However, the presence of an electrophilic substituent at DA 4 facilitates the intramolecular reaction between the carbonyl center and reactive C α , leading to the formation of a cyclized product in 4 .…”
