The challenges in constructing a C P bond with a special emphasis on metal catalysed (asymmetric) hydrophosphination are highlighted. Only those systems that unambiguously proceed via P H bond addition across a C-C/X (X = O, N, S) multiple bond have been covered in this overview. Reviewed examples support the assumption that either strongly chelating ligands or reaction products that act as ligands, enhance the rate of hydrophosphination. The asymmetric variant of this transformation allows installation of p-chiral [enantiomeric excess (ee) up to 82%] as well as C-chiral (ee up to 99%) centres. The limited spectroscopic, mechanistic data and OFT calculations point at two distinctly different mechanisms. In case of hydrophosphination, the metal undergoes oxidative addition and reductive elimination steps (in general), thus changing the oxidation state from M(0) to M(II) and back to M(0). Whereas in asymmetric hydrophosphination it is proposed that the oxidation state of the metal remains unaltered throughout the catalytic cycle. The examples described in this overview showcase the real power of catalytic hydrophosphination in constructing various phosphorus compounds, which may initiate a new era in organo-phosphorus chemistry.

Loading nanoparticles (nPs) onto them is one approach to introducing tailor-made properties into a COF. Here, a COF-Co/Co(OH)(2) composite containing about 16 wt% of <6 nm sized Co/Co(OH)(2) nPs is prepared on a N-rich COF support that catalyzes the release of theoretical equivalence of H-2 from readily available, safe, and cheap NaBH4. Furthermore, the released H-2 is utilized for the hydrogenation of nitrile and nitro compounds to amines under ambient conditions in a facile one-pot reaction. The COF "by choice" is built from "methoxy" functionalized dialdehydes which is crucial in enabling the complete retention of the COF structure under the conditions of the catalysis, where the regular Schiff bonds would have hydrolyzed. The N-rich binding pockets in the COF ensure strong nP-COF interactions, which provides stability and enables catalyst recycling. Modeling studies reveal the crucial role played by the COF in exposing the active facets and thereby in controlling the activation of the reducing agent. Additionally, via density functional theory, we provide a rational explanation for how these COFs can stabilize nanoparticles which grow beyond the limiting pore size of the COF and yet result in a truly stable heterogeneous catalyst - a ubiquitous observation. The study underscores the versatility of COF as a heterogeneous support for developing cheap and highly active nonnoble metal catalysts.1 aMullangi, Dinesh1 aChakraborty, Debanjan1 aPradeep, Anu1 aKoshti, Vijay1 aVinod, Chathakudath, P.1 aPanja, Soumendranath1 aNair, Sunil1 aVaidhyanathan, Ramanathan  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/highly-stable-cof-supported-cocooh2-nanoparticles-heterogeneous-catalyst-reduction
