Chlorodiisopropylphosphine is an organophosphorus compound with the formula [(CH3)2CH]2PCl. It is a colorless liquid that is used to prepared phosphine ligands.
Synthesis and reactions
The compound is prepared by treating phosphorus trichloride with the Grignard reagent derived from isopropyl chloride:[1]
- PCl3 + 2 (CH3)2CHMgCl → [(CH3)2CH]2PCl + 2 MgCl2
Relative to the reaction of less hindered Grignard reagents with PCl3, this reaction affords a superior yield of the monochloro derivative.
Chlorodiisopropylphosphine reacts with alcohols and phenols to give phosphonites, this reaction typically is conducted in the presence of a base:
- [(CH3)2CH]2PCl + ROH → [(CH3)2CH]2POR + HCl
Phosphinites are versatile ligands.[2]
