Chlorodiisopropylphosphine is an organophosphorus compound with the formula [(CH3)2CH]2PCl. It is a colorless liquid that reacts with water and oxygen. The compound is used to prepare tertiary phosphines and phosphinite ligands.

Synthesis and reactions[edit]

The compound is prepared by treating phosphorus trichloride with the Grignard reagent isopropylmagnesium chloride:[2]

PCl3 + 2 (CH3)2CHMgCl → [(CH3)2CH]2PCl + 2 MgCl2

Relative to the reaction of less hindered Grignard reagents with PCl3, this reaction affords a superior yield of the monochloro derivative.

Chlorodiisopropylphosphine reacts with Grignard reagents and organolithium compounds to give phosphines:

[(CH3)2CH]2PCl + RM → [(CH3)2CH]2PR + MCl

Chlorodiisopropylphosphine reacts with alcohols and phenols to give phosphinites, this reaction typically is conducted in the presence of a base:

[(CH3)2CH]2PCl + ROH → [(CH3)2CH]2POR + HCl

Phosphinites are versatile ligands.[3]

  1. Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
