Reactions of Phosphaalkenes with Hydrides of Elements of III and IV Groups.

Abstract Reactions of phosphaalkenes with the hydrides of B, A1, Si, Sn were studied. The reaction of hydroboration of phosphaalkenes was carried out: The obtained compounds undergo 6-elimination upon heating: The unstable methylenphenylphosphine can be trapped by boran, [Php=CH2] + R2BH → PhPH-CH2-BR2.
