Reviews covering the chemistry of group 2 metal complexes with phosphorus-stabilized carbanions,279 and of molecular clusters of magnesium dimetallated primary phosphanes, are available.2 u Magnesium phosphanes remain rare compounds.281 Lithiation of bromide 98 with BuLi in the presence of tmeda in pentane produces a lithium phosphine dimer subsequent treatment with MgCl2 in EtzO gives the phosphane 99 in 69% overall yield (Equation (19)). The centrosymmetric 99 has Mg-C = 2.217 A Mg-P = 2.77 A (av.).282... 

Intramolecular aromatic substitution in transition metal complexes is an area of research where there is considerable current interest, and tri(phenyl-ds)-phosphine is a ligand often used in such investigations. This phosphine can be prepared from phenyl-ds-magnesium bromide by its reaction with PCI3 in diethylether, as described below. 

Organophosphorus compounds find wide use in the chemical industry as catalysts, intermediates, complexes, and end-use products. Arylphosphines and phosphine oxides are often produced by the reaction of a preformed Grignard reagent with a halophosphine or phosphine oxide. Yields are reduced by the production of unwanted side-reaction products such as biaryls. These unwanted products are reduced when the reaction is conducted under Barbier conditions. When alkyl and aryl halides are reacted with magnesium metal, a trihalophosphine or phosphine oxide, a metal halide or amine catalyst, in THE benzene mixtures, at reflux, good yields of phosphines or phosphine oxides are obtained [74]. For example, triphenylphosphine can be prepared in a 97.2% yield from the reaction of bromobenzene, trichlorophosphine, magnesium metal, aluminum chloride, and sodium chloride in THF-benzene at 70 80 C.
