- Description
This thesis provides an account of research into a group of diphosphine ligands with a rigid xanthene backbone and tert -butyl substituents on the phosphorus atoms. The three ligands have different groups in the bridgehead position of the backbone (CMe₂, SiMe₂, or S) which change the natural (calculated) bite-angle of the ligand. The coordination chemistry of these t -Bu-xantphos ligands with late-transition metals has been investigated with a focus on metal complexes that may form in catalyt...
