Functionalization of Tetraphosphido Ligands by Heterocumulenes.

ABSTRACT: Although numerous polyphosphido complexes have been accessed through the transition-metal-mediated activation and functionalization of white phosphorus (P₄), the selective functionalization of the resulting polyphosphorus ligands in these compounds remains underdeveloped. In this study, we explore the reactions between cyclotetraphosphido cobalt complexes and heterocumulenes, leading to functionalized P₄ ligands. Specifically, the reaction of carbon disulfide (CS₂) with [K(18c-6)][(Ar*BIAN)Co(η⁴-P₄)] ([K(18c-6)]1, 18c-6 = [18]crown-6) affords the adduct [K(18c-6)][(Ar*BIAN)Co(η³:η¹-P₄CS₂)] ([K(18c-6)]3), in which CS₂ is attached to a single phosphorus atom (Ar* = 2,6-
