High impact information on phosphane

• The Rh complex of the phosphane-containing polyisocyanate p(18-co-17) was an active albeit hardly enantioselective catalyst in the asymmetric hydrogenation of the dehydro amino acid N-acetamidocinnamic acid (15% enantiomeric excess) [1].
• The 17-electron complexes [M(tropp(ph))2] (M=Co0, Rh0, Ir0) were prepared and isolated (tropp = tropylidene phosphane) [2].
• The dissociative pathway starts with the dissociation of phosphane, which is rather facile (Delta G(298)* is approximately equal to 5-10 kcal mol(-1)) [3].
• The copper and silver atoms in 4 c and 5 a are trigonal planar and are surrounded by the P atoms of the phosphane ligands and the N atom of the DPP dianion 2 [4].
• The electron-deficiency of the cluster core in 1 permits facile electrocatalytic substitution of a CO ligand by tertiary phosphane and phosphite donors [5].

Associations of phosphane with other chemical compounds

• The reactions of chromium and chromium fluoride monocations CrFn+ (n = 0-4) with phosphane are investigated by Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry [6].

Gene context of phosphane

• For the neutral species [P,H3,F2] formed by reaction of CrF2+ with phosphane, the structures are interrogated by quantum-mechanical calculations at the MP2/6-31++G** level of theory [6].
• Synthesis, characterization and antioxidant activity of new copper(I) complexes of scorpionate and water soluble phosphane ligands [7].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of phosphane

• The ligation relies on the selective transfer of a phosphane substituent to an azide to form a native amide bond in the final product upon release of an oxidized phosphane byproduct [8].
• Azide-functionalized Ras protein was immobilized on a phosphane-modified surface by means of Staudinger ligation providing a highly chemoselective ligation method for the immobilization of proteins [9].
