The synthesis of a range of phosphinite ligands PR2(OAr) (R = Ph, iPr), their simple complexes with palladium(II) and their palladacyclic complexes has been investigated. The crystal structure of one of the palladacyclic complexes, [{Pd(μ2-Cl)} {κ2-P, C-PiPr2(OC6H2-2,4-t Bu2)} 2], has been determined. The palladacyclic complexes show extremely high activity in the Suzuki coupling of aryl bromide substrates with phenylboronic acid and can also be used with alkylboronic acid substrates. A comparison of the phosphinite-based catalysts with equivalent phosphite- and phosphine-based systems highlights their superior activity. The orthometallation of the phosphinite ligand in the pre-catalyst appears to be crucial for optimal activity. While the phosphinite palladacycles are only moderately active in the coupling of activated and non-activated aryl chloride substrates, their tricyclohexylphosphine adducts prove to be highly active in the coupling of the deactivated substrate, 4-chloroanisole. This high activity compared with other palladacyclic systems is explained in terms of catalyst longevity. The orthometallated precatalysts appear to undergo a reductive activation process to generate zerovalent active catalysts via reductive elimination of the orthometallated ring with a phenyl introduced by the boronic acid. This implies that the true active catalysts contain 2-arylated ligands. Catalysts formed with such 2-arylated ligands tend to show markedly higher activity than their parent ligands.

Reactions of C,O-dilithium reagents 1 (M = M′ = Li) or C,O-lithium-sodium reagents 1 (M = Li, M′ = Na) with chlorophosphanes afford C,O-disubstitution products 2 or phosphanylphenolates 3 which are treated subsequently with ClSiMe3 to give 4-me
