[4 + 2]-Cycloadditions of a thiazol-based tricyclic 1,4-diphosphinine and a new easy 1,4-diphosphinine protection deprotection strategy†
Abstract
Diels–Alder-reactions of a thiazol-2-thione-based, tricyclic 1,4-di-phosphinine were investigated, showing that the central aromatic π-system can react with various dienophiles. The reaction with 4-phenyl-1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-dione was special as the product revealed a remarkable sensitivity towards light, thus enabling the photochemical deprotection of the tricyclic 1,4-diphosphinine.
