The five-membered ring in the title compound, C6H13O3P, exists in an envelope conformation with one of the ring C atoms at the flap position. The coordination geometry around the P atom is a distorted tetra­hedron. The crystal structure is stabilized by several weak C—H⋯O and P—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

Comment top

Carbon-carbon bond-forming catalytic reactions are very important fundamental processes in synthetic chemistry. Among them, one of the commonly recognized is the Heck reaction employing as the catalyst precursors palladium compounds with phosphorus ligands (Beletskaya & Cheprakov, 2000). Complexes incorporating in their structure 1,3,2-dioxaphospholane heterocyclic rings have been recently found to be efficient catalysts of the Heck reaction carried out under mild conditions (Skarżyńska et al., 2011). In this paper we report the synthesis and crystallization of tetramethyl dioxaphospholane, the title compound.

The geometric parameters around the four-coordinate phosphorus atom (Fig. 1) indicate a deformation of the ideal tetrahedron towards a trigonal pyramid. The O—P—O1 and O—P—O2 angles differ considerably from the ideal value of 109.5° and approach 120°, while O1—P—O2 is close to 90°. Such deformations might be explained by the effect of different substituents and bond types. Bond lengths P—O1, P—O2, P—O, and P—H are typical (Allen et al., 1987). The heterocyclic five-membered ring P/O1/C1/C2/O2 adopts an envelope conformation with the C1 atom deviating from the four-atom plane by about 0.55 Å.

The crystal structure is stabilized by a few hydrogen bonds of the C—H···O and P—H···O types (Desiraju & Steiner, 1999). Consequently, a three-dimensional network of such interactions is formed in the crystal. The C11, C12 and C21 atoms act as hydrogen-bond donors, via H113, H123 and H213, respectively, to the Oi atom [symmetry code: (i) x, –y + 1/2, z + 1/2] as an acceptor (Table 1). As a result, chains running parallel to the [001] direction are formed. The adjacent chains of the molecules are further linked by C22—H222···O1ii and P—H···O1iii hydrogen interactions [symmetry codes: (ii) –x, y – 1/2, –z + 1/2; (iii) –x + 1, y – 1/2, –z + 1/2].

Experimental top

The title compound may be prepared according to the known procedures: utilizing pinacol and phosphorus trichloride, followed by hydrolysis (Zwierzak, 1967) or involving a transestrification process between pinacol and diethyl phosphite (Maffei & Buono, 2003). Here we report an alternative route. Crystallization of 2,2,3,3,7,7,8,8-octamethyl-1,4,6,9–5λ5-phosphaspiro[4.4]nonane in non-dried diethyl ether leads to hydrolysis of the tetraoxaspirophosphorane. As a result, 4,4,5,5-teramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaphospholane 2-oxide is formed as single crystals.

Refinement top

All H atoms were found in a difference Fourier map and refined isotropically. The measured C—H distances in methyl groups are in range 0.92 (2)–1.00 (2)Å and P—H bond length is 1.28 (2) Å. The highest residual peak and the deepest hole in the final difference map are located 0.77 and 0.76Å from the C1 and P atom, respectively.

Special details top

Experimental. The crystal was placed in the cold stream of an open-flow nitrogen cryostat (Cosier & Glazer, 1986) operating at 100 K. Analytical numeric absorption correction was carried out with CrysAlis RED (Oxford Diffraction, 2010) using a multifaceted crystal model (Clark & Reid, 1995).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
