Palladium acetate efficiently catalyzes the addition of an H-spirophosphorane (pinacolato)2PH to alkynes to give Markovnikov addition products highly selectively. The addition products can be easily converted to the corresponding alkenylphosphonates and phosphonic acids via simple hydrolysis or thermal decomposition. This new reaction is a general method for the introduction of phosphorus functionality to the internal carbons of terminal alkynes, resolving the problem of the regioselectivity associated with hydrophosphorylation reactions so far reported. Mechanistic studies confirmed that (a) palladium acetate was reduced to metallic palladium by H-spirophosphorane, (b) the P–H bond of H-spirophosphorane could be activated by zero-valent platinum complexes to give the corresponding hydridoplatinum complexes, and (c) an alkenylpalladium species was identified from the reaction of palladium acetate with H-spirophosphorane and diphenylacetylene. These results support a reaction mechanism that palladium acetate was first reduced by H-spirophosphorane to give zero-valent palladium. This zero-valent palladium might insert into the P–H bond of the H-spirophosphorane to give a hydridopalladium species which then added to alkyne via the addition of H–Pd bond to form an alkenylpalladium species with the hydrogen atom added to the terminal carbon of alkynes. Reductive elimination of the alkenylpalladium affords the addition product.
乙酸钯能高效催化H-螺磷烷(pinacolato)2PH与炔烃反应,高选择性地得到马氏加成产物。该加成产物通过简单的水解或热分解即可转化为相应的烯基膦酸盐和膦酸。这一新反应为解决端炔的内碳原子亲核膦化反应的区域选择性问题提供了一般性的方法。机理研究表明:(a)乙酸钯被H-螺磷烷还原为金属钯;(b)零价铂配合物可活化H-螺磷烷的P-H键,生成相应的氢铂配合物;(c)乙酸钯与H-螺磷烷和二苯基乙炔反应生成了烯基钯物种。这些结果支持下列反应机理:乙酸钯首先被H-螺磷烷还原为零价钯,后者插入H-螺磷烷的P-H键生成氢钯物种,该氢钯物种与炔烃反应时, H-Pd键加成形成烯基钯物种,其中的氢原子加成到炔烃的末端碳原子上,最后经还原消除生成加成产物。
