Heterocondensed 1,4‐diphosphinines

Abstract

Abstract A reaction of phosphorus tribromide with a compound containing two 2,5‐dimethyl‐1‐arylpyrrolyl‐3 residues bound through a phosphorus atom gave rise to a new phosphorus‐containing heterocyclic system, 1,4‐diphosphinine. The new products thus obtained have been characterized and described. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Heteroatom Chem 13:46–52, 2002; DOI 10.1002/hc.1105
