A germ cell tumor is the most common form of malignancy in early male life, and can be classified as either seminomatous or nonseminomatous. Choriocarcinoma, comprised of nonseminomatous germ cells, is the most aggressive type of germ cell tumor...

Synthesis of vinylphosphines and unsymmetric diphosphines: iron-catalyzed selective hydrophosphination reaction of alkynes and vinylphosphines with secondary phosphines.

Chemical communications (Cambridge, England)

PMID: 26805625
Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Feb 21;52(15):3163-6. doi: 10.1039/c5cc10185a.

Iron complex-catalyzed regioselective single hydrophosphination of terminal arylalkynes with secondary phosphines was achieved. Unsymmetric 1,2-bis(phosphino)ethanes with different phosphino groups were obtained by using our catalytic systems. The structures of the obtained vinylphosphine, unsymmetric 1,2-bis(phosphino)ethane, and iron catalyst precursors were...
