Abstract
Methyltris(triarylphosphine)cobalt (Ar3P)3CoCH3, decomposes in solutions of THF, benzene or chlorobenzene to yield biaryls. Coupling to biaryls occurs at the ring carbon originally bonded to phosphorus. Mixed biaryls are obtained from crossover reactions of complexes bearing different triarylphosphine ligands and reactions of complexes with free triarylphosphines.
