Deskripsi

Weakly σ-donating phosphines bearing a hexafluorocyclopentene skeleton were synthesized. The 1JPSe coupling constants of selenides of the fluorinated phosphines revealed substantially decreased s-character of the phosphorus lone pair orbitals of the fluorinated phosphines, indicating their weak σ-donating ability. Au(I), Pd(II) and Pt(II) complexes bearing the fluorinated phosphines showed moderate catalytic activity in the hydration and hydroarylation of alkynes.
