Phosphinite PCP pincer complexes

Since then, these ligands and their complexes have become increasingly important due to the fact that they exhibit the same characterishcs of robustness and thermal stability and, in most of cases, an enhanced reactivity compared to their phosphine counterparts. Thus, phosphinite PCP pincer complexes have been used intensely during the most recent era of catalytic processes and reactions involving the activation of aliphatic C—H bonds [40].
