ABSTRACT
An alkenylphosphinite compound has been used to synthesize the unknown iridaoxaphospholane complexes
which have been characterized in solution and solid state. The reactions took place in mild conditions and the
product were obtained in good yields. The synthesis of the iridaoxaphospholane complexes is based on the
capability of the alkenylphosphinite compound to behave as a κ1P or κ3(P, C, C) ligand when bonded to a metal
complex. Theoretical calculations have been performed to explain the formation of the iridaoxaphospholane
derivative due to a lower energy barrier for the nucleophilic attack at the terminal carbon of the olefin.
