Phosphinidene tungsten pentacarbonyl complexes are extremely unstable, highly reactive and could be generated in-situ only. These intermediates could be trapped easily in presence of various reagents containing π-systems to afford a number of P-heterocycles. A number of compounds are known to give phosphinidene intermediates but 2H-azaphosphirene tungsten pentacarbonyl complex is the most stable precursor for the in-situ generation of terminal phosphinidene complexes. Recently, we found that terminal phosphinidene tungsten pentacarbonyl complex reacted efficiently with the reagents containing no π-systems. For example, a reaction of terminal phosphinidene complex with CCl4 resulted in dehalogenation, which established the route for the selective insertion of posphinidene complex into carbon-halogen bonds. Such reaction also resulted in dehydroiodination. A reaction of triethylamine with phosphinidene complexes resulted in the formation of primary phosphine complex via dehydrogenation. 1.
