Abstract: The present invention describes a new alkynylation and cyanation agent, as well as its preparation and use to introduce nitrile (cyano) or alkyne groups into chemical target molecules by means of an electrophilic reaction. To enable an electrophilic reaction, the chemical backbone of dibenzothiophene was used.

Abstract: The present invention deals with the synthesis and applications of new cationic compounds being useful as metal ligands. Specifically, N-alkyl/aryl substituted pyridiniophosphines are prepared and used as ligands for transition metals. The so-obtained metal complexes and their use as catalysts in chemical synthesis is also described. It also worth mentioning that N-alkyl/aryl pyridiniophosphines can be synthesized through a short, scalable and highly modular route.
