Summary: The phosphorus stereocentre is crucial in various compounds and efforts are underway to develop stereoselective synthesis methods. Despite advances in metal-catalysed C-P bond formation, generating homochiral phosphorus stereocentres remains challenging. An efficient and flexible method has been presented for the synthesis of various classes of P-chirogenic compounds through functionalization of phosphonamidates with excellent stereoselectivity.

Summary: The stereoselective synthesis of new phospholylmethano P-chirogenic-phosphine-borane was achieved by P-C bond formation of the bridge, using electrophilic or nucleophilic P*-building blocks. These ligands behaved as chelating entities towards the cationic rhodium(I) centre, and the resulting chiral rhodium complexes were tested in asymmetric rhodium catalyzed hydrogenation of methyl 2-(acetamido)acrylate.

Summary: In this study, the feasibility of atroposelective P-III/P-V=O redox organocatalysis by the Staudinger-aza-Wittig reaction is described. The formation of isoquinoline heterocycles allows for the synthesis of a wide range of valuable atropisomers with high enantioselectivities. The reaction is catalyzed by a chiral phosphine catalyst, with stereocontrol achieved through a silane reductant and Bronsted acid co-catalysis. The products can be easily transformed into N-oxides, naphthol, and triaryl phosphine variants, providing access to diverse aromatic heterocycles with precise control over their configuration.

Summary: In this study, three carbazole-triphenylphosphine hybrids were designed and synthesized to achieve high efficiency and long lifetime of organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP). The para-substituted pCzTPP showed high RTP efficiency (>10%) and extended lifetime (>600 ms), surpassing the ortho- and meta- isomers. Theoretical simulation and photophysical investigation revealed that the strong intermolecular p-p and p-p interactions in pCzTPP facilitated the transition probability and triplet stability of (3)pp state, demonstrating the synergy of p-p and p-p in RTP process.

Summary: Bulky ylide-substituted phosphines have recently been used as effective ligands in homogeneous catalysis. The attempted synthesis of the ylide-substituted fluorenylphosphine resulted in unexpected elimination reactions and the formation of cyclic phosphonium ylide. Coordination to transition metals resulted in the formation of zwitterionic metal complexes with a neutral phosphide ligand.

Summary: Trifluoromethylphosphines are a rare type of phosphine compound with unique electron-withdrawing properties, resulting in distinctive reactivities. Currently, the structure diversity of TFMPhos products obtained from nucleophilic or electrophilic trifluoromethylation of substrates using phosphine chlorides is very limited and requires one or more steps. In this study, we report a convenient and scalable (up to 100 mmol) method to synthesize diverse trifluoromethylphosphines via direct radical trifluoromethylation of phosphine chlorides with CF(3)Br in the presence of zinc powder.

Summary: Several novel ionic phosphines (L1-L4) with good robustness against water and oxygen were synthesized and characterized. The XPS analysis showed that L1 derived from Xantphos could act as a P, O-hybrid ligand with P, O-chelation to Pd-center. As a result, L1 provided PdCl2(MeCN)2 with high catalytic activity, excellent selectivity, and good stability in the bis-hydroaminocarbonylation of alkynes, yielding N-aryl substituted succinimides with isolated yields of 57-90%. Control experiments and in situ high-pressured FT-IR analysis further confirmed that the studied reaction followed a tandem reaction mechanism involving Pd-H species (m 1942 cm-1) over the L1-Pd(MeCN)2Cl2 catalytic system.

Summary: Six- and seven-membered cyclic hydroxamic acids are commonly found in siderophores and can act as terminal binding units. However, the coordination chemistry of these ligands with Fe3+, the target metal ion of siderophores, has not been previously investigated. In this study, four complexes were synthesized and studied, and X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the AZEPO(-) complexes had better minimized interligand repulsion energies and shorter Fe-O bond distances compared to the PIPO complexes.

Summary: Varietal thiols contribute to the aroma of various wines and beers, and their production depends on the metabolism of non-odorant aroma precursors by yeast. The conversion of these precursors is limited, so the use of exogenous carbon-sulfur beta-lyase (CSL) enzyme from Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus was explored to enhance the conversion. The study investigated the activity of the enzyme on different precursors, its behavior in the presence of competing analogues and at different pH values, and provided insights for substrate recognition, paving the way for aroma release in beer and wine.

Summary: This study reports the synthesis of a new generation of phenoxy-amidine ligands with an ortho-N-linked trisubstituted amidine. Mono- or bis-ligated complexes were obtained from the reaction of phenol-amidine proligands with aluminum and zinc alkyls depending on the metal/ligand ratio. The solid-state structure of these complexes was determined by X-Ray diffraction analysis. The Zn complexes with a phenoxy-amidine ligand featuring an additional dimethylamino arm showed the best performance in the ring-opening polymerization of rac-lactide.
