[0040]

Chemical formula

[0041] To generate tris(1H-tetrazol-1-yl)phosphine (3), HMPT (2) (163 mg, 1 mmol) was added to a 0.45 M acetonitrile solution of tetrazole (1) (13.4 mL, 6 mmol), and the mixture was stirred under argon at room temperature for 5 minutes. Subsequently, 3 equivalents of 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol (4) (619 mg, 3 mmol) were added to the solution. The reaction mixture was further stirred under argon at 60 °C for about 20 hours. After 15 - 30 minutes, a white precipitate gradually formed in the solution. As a post-treatment, the precipitate was filtered off under anaerobic conditions, washed once with acetonitrile (2 mL), and dried under vacuum. Yield (5): 0.50 g of white solid (= 77%).

[0042] 31 P NMR (CD2Cl2): 129.9 ppm. 1 H NMR (CD2Cl2): 7.40 (3H, d, J 2.5 Hz, 3xH ar )、7.40 (3H, dd, J 8.5, 2.1 Hz, 3xH ar )、7.12 (3H, dd, J 8.5, 2.5 Hz, 3xH ar )、1.41 (27H, s, 3xC(CH3)3), 1.30 (27H, s, 3xC(CH3)3). 13 C NMR (CD2Cl2): 149.5 (d, J 4.0 Hz, 3xC ar -O), 146.2 (3xC ar )、139.4 (d, J 2.6 Hz, C ar )、125.0 (3xC arH), 124.0 (3xC ar H), 119.2 (d, J 18.2 Hz, 3xC ar H), 35.4 (3x t C), 34.8 (3x t C), 31.7 (9xCH3), 30.4 (9xCH3).
