Abstract

Two different synthetic routes to the new aromatic 1,2,4-azadiphosphole ring system P2C2But2NR (R = Pri, Pr, Ph, MeC6H4, ButCH2 and cyclohexyl) are presented and the planar structure of P2C2But2NPh, established by a single crystal X-ray diffraction study, is in good agreement with theoretical calculations at the B3LYP/6-311G* level on the parent P2C2H2NH ring.

  3. Quantum-chemical calculations were carried out by using the GAUSS-94 package and optimisation of the structures was first carried out at the B3LYP/3-21G(*) level. The stationary points obtained were then characterised by second derivative calculations as real minima. Further reoptimisation was carried out by using the 6-311G* basis.
