N-Pyrrolyl Phosphines:  Enhanced π-Acceptor Character via Carboalkoxy Substitution

A series of 3,4-dicarboethoxy-N-pyrrolyl phosphine ligands (R2P−NC4H2(CO2Et)2) is described. A number of techniques, including reaction calorimetry, infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography, demonstrate that these ligands are potent π-acceptors and that the electronic substituent parameter χ...

Summary:A series of 3,4-dicarboethoxy-N-pyrrolyl phosphine ligands (R2P−NC4H2(CO2Et)2) is described. A number of techniques, including reaction calorimetry, infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography, demonstrate that these ligands are potent π-acceptors and that the electronic substituent parameter χi for the 3,4-(EtO2C)2C4H2N moiety is ca. 16, placing it in a position between fluorine and chlorine.
