The reactions proceed via primary attack of the P-lone electron pair, as shown by the synthesis of phosphonium glycolates from tertiary phosphines and glyoxylic acid, and addition of PH at the carbonyl group. The ring closure proceeds by replacement of the hydroxy by the amino group and is kinetically controlled. NMR monitoring of the phosphaprolines in CD3OD over several days indicates changes of the diastereoisomer ratios leading to higher contents of the more stable trans-diastereoisomers. The zwitterionic compounds are soluble in part in CD3OD, DMF or DMSO, are somewhat sensitive to air in solution and may undergo hydrolysis with larger amounts of water. The structures are proved by multinuclear NMR spectra and two crystal structure analyses. Suitable phosphaprolines as well phosphonium glycolates and Ni(COD)2 allow to generate precatalysts, activated by NaH for the oligomerisation of ethylene to mainly linear products with methyl and vinyl end groups. Some additional investigations with phosphinophenolates, another type of P-C-C-O- ligands, were performed for comparison. Precatalysts prepared from 2-phosphinophenolesters and Ni(COD)2 at room temperature were characterized by multinuclear NMR but decomposed on heating to stable nickel cis-bis(P,O-chelate) complexes. Heating precatalysts generated from a phosphinophenolester or phosphinophenols and Ni(COD)2 in the presence of ethylene under pressure led to linear ethylene oligomers. These reactions are much faster than the above mentioned conversions with NaH activated P,O-Ni-catalysts. In the presence of 9-decenol with unprotected remote hydroxyl group incorporation of a small amount of isolated hydroxyoctyl side groups takes place, detected by 13C NMR spectroscopy. Finally it is stated that the development of a facile synthesis and the characterization of the properties of the phosphaprolines pave the way for derivatisation and further studies with these novel types of amino acids.}, language = {en} }
