What is Trimethylphosphine?

The Uses of Trimethylphosphine

Trimethylphosphine (PMe3) is an electron-rich phosphine ligand used as a reagent in Mitsunobu reaction.
It can be used:

  • In transformation of azides into carbamates; aziridines to azidoalcohols; and ketoximes to ketones with 2,2′-dipyridyl diselenide.
  • In Aza-Wittig reaction;, C-H bond activation of imines; cross-coupling reactions.
  • In the preparation of (cyanomethylene) trimethylphosphorane (CMMP) which is used as a reagent in Mitsunobu type reaction.
  • As a reagent in the synthesis of ruthenium trimethylphosphine complexes, which in turn are used as catalysts for hydrogenation of CO2 to formic acid.
