Intramolekulare Donator‐Akzeptorwechselwirkungen in λ4P(V)‐Verbindungen Phosphor(V)‐Derivate des N,N,N′‐Trimethylethylendiamins

Intramolecular Donor-Acceptor Interactions in λ4P(V) Compounds. — Phosphorus(V) Derivatives of N,N,N′-Trimethyl-ethylenediamine The chlorophosphino derivative of N,N,N′-trimethylethyl-enediamine Me2NCH2CH2(Me)NP(Cl)Me (1) and the 2-(diethylamino)-λ3-phospholidinium salt [Me2 NEt2]+ Cl− (5) have been allowed to react with several oxidizing agents. Reaction of 1 with dimethyl sulfoxide furnishes the phosphonamidic chloride Me2NCH2CH2(Me)NP(O)(Cl)Me (3) while with elemental sulfur the phosphonamidothioic chloride Me2NCH2CH2(Me)NP(S)(Cl)Me (2) is obtained. The reaction of 2 with sodium tetraphenylborate furnished the 1,1,2,3-tetramethyl-1,3,2-λ4-diazaphospholidinium tetraphenylborate [Me2 (S)Me]+ [BPh4]− (4). The reaction of 5 with phenyl azide, followed by sodium tetraphenylborate led to 2-(diethylamino)-2-(phenylimino)-1,3,2λ4-diazaphospholidinium tetraphenylborate [Me2 (NPh)NEt2]+ [BPh4]−1 (7). The methoxy-λ3-diazaphospholidinium salt [Me2 OMe]+ [BPh4]− (6) does not react with phenyl azide to produce the 2-methoxy-2-(phenylimino)-1,3,2λ4-diaza-phospholidinium salt analogous to 7; instead its rearrangement product, the dimeric 1,3,2λ4,4λ4-diazadiphosphetidine tetraphenylborate [Me3NCH2CH2(Me)NP(O)NPh]2[BPh4]− (8), is isolated in low yield. Singlecrystal X-ray structure determinations of 4 and 8 are described.
