Developing practical and mild strategies for the direct functionalization of white phosphorus
(P4) without chlorination is an appealing but formidable challenge. To this end, we report a …

In this Perspective, we discuss what we perceive to be the continued challenges faced in
catalytic hydrophosphination chemistry. Currently the literature is dominated by catalysts …

Bis (trichlorosilyl) phosphine (HP (SiCl3) 2, 1) was prepared from [TBA][P (SiCl3) 2]([TBA] 2,
TBA= tetra-n-butylammonium) and triflic acid in 36% yield. Phosphine 1 is an efficient …

This review summarizes the progress in organo-f-element chemistry during the year 2019.
Organo-f-element chemistry, including Sc, Y, the lanthanides and the actinides, has been a …

Appetite for reactions involving PH3 has grown in the past few years. This in part is due to
the ability to generate PH3 cleanly and safely via digestion of cheap metal phosphides with …

A novel and efficient method for the direct selective alkylation of white phosphorus (P4) with
alkyl bromides has been developed, utilizing 4DPAIPN as the photocatalyst and Hantzsch …
