- Abstract
The reactivity of biradicaloid [P(μ-NTer)]2 was employed to activate small molecules bearing single, double, and triple bonds. Addition of chalcogens (O2, S8, Se x and Te x) led to the formation of dichalcogen-bridged P2N2 heterocycles, except from the reaction with molecular oxygen, which gave a P2N2 ring featuring a dicoordinated PIII and a four-coordinated PV center. In formal [2πe+2πe] addition reactions, small unsaturated compounds such as ethylene, acetylene, acetone, acetonitrile, tolane, diphenylcarbodiimide, and bis(trimethylsilyl)sulfurdiimide are readily added to the P2N2 heterocycle of the biradicaloid [P(μ-NTer)]2, yielding novel heteroatom cage compounds. The synthesis, reactivity, and bonding of the biradicaloid [P(μ-NTer)]2 were studied in detail as well as the synthesis, properties, and structural features of all addition products.
