Reactions of phosphines with acetylenes. Part 17. Formation and stereochemistry of 1,2- dicyano-2-phosphoniaethanesulphonate betaines

Abstract

The initial intermediate in the reaction of triarylphosphines with cyanoacetylenes may be trapped as an adduct with water and sulphur dioxide. The structures of the adducts are shown to be phosphoniaethanesulphonate betaines. Vicinal n.m.r. coupling constants show that in trifluoroacetic acid solution the betaines from dicyanoacetylene are held in a rigid conformation of the threo configuration. However, in dimethyl sulphoxide solution the coupling is removed by a slow proton exchange process.
