&#039;&#039;&#039;Diphenylphosphine&#039;&#039;&#039;, also known as diphenylphosphane, is [[organophosphorus compound]] with the formula (C&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;6&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;5&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PH.  This foul-smelling, colorless liquid is easily oxidized in air.  It is a precursor to organophosphorus ligands for use as [[catalysts]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Synthesis==&lt;br /&gt;
Diphenylphosphine can be prepared cheaply from [[triphenylphosphine]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal | author1 = Wittenberg, D. | author2 = Gilman, H. | authorlink2 = Henry Gilman | title = Lithium Cleavages of Triphenyl Derivatives of Some Group Vb Elements in Tetrahydrofuran | journal = [[Journal of Organic Chemistry]] | year = 1958 | volume = 23 | issue = 7 | pages = 1063–1065 | doi = 10.1021/jo01101a613 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:PPh&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;  +  2 Li   →   LiPPh&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;  +  LiPh&lt;br /&gt;
:LiPPh&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;  +  H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O   →   Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PH  +  LiOH&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Uses and reactions==&lt;br /&gt;
In the laboratory, diphenylphosphine is a common intermediate.  It can be deprotonated to give diphenylphosphide derivatives:&amp;lt;ref name = piotrowski&amp;gt;{{ cite encyclopedia | author = Piotrowski, D. W.  | title = Diphenylphosphine | encyclopedia = Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis | publisher = John Wiley &amp;amp; Sons | location = New York | year = 2001 | doi = 10.1002/047084289X.rd427 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PH + &amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;n&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;BuLi   →   Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PLi + &amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;n&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;BuH&lt;br /&gt;
The preparation of phosphine [[ligand]]s, [[Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons reaction|Wittig-Horner reagents]], and [[phosphonium salt]]s are commonly accomplished by alkylating diphenylphosphine.  The hydrogen atom connected to phosphorus undergoes Michael-like addition to activated alkenes, providing products with which to produce phosphine ligands such as [[1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane]] (Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PC&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;4&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PPh&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;).  Diphenylphosphine and especially diphenylphosphide derivatives are nucleophiles, so they add to carbon – heteroatom double bonds.&amp;lt;ref name = piotrowski/&amp;gt;  For example, in the presence of concentrated hydrochloric acid at 100 °C, diphenylphosphine adds to the carbon atom in [[benzaldehyde]] to give (phenyl-(phenylmethyl)phosphoryl)benzene.&lt;br /&gt;
:Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PH  +  PhCHO → Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;P(O)CH&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;Ph&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Compared to tertiary phosphines, diphenylphosphine is weakly basic.  The pKa of the protonated derivative is 0.03:&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;C. A. Streuli, &amp;quot;Determination of Basicity of Substituted Phosphines by Nonaqueous Titrimetry&amp;quot;, Analytical Chemistry 1960, volume 32, pages 985-987.{{DOI|10.1021/ac60164a027}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PH&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;    &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\overrightarrow{\leftarrow}&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt;   Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PH  +  H&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Handling properties===&lt;br /&gt;
During the handling of diphenylphosphine, care must be taken to avoid oxidation of diphenylphosphine.&amp;lt;ref name = Svara&amp;gt;{{ Ullmann | author = Svara, J.; Weferling, N.; Hofmann, T. | title = Phosphorus Compounds, Organic | doi = 10.1002/14356007.a19_545.pub2 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
:Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PH + O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; → Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;P(O)OH &lt;br /&gt;
The use of the diphenylphosphine–borane complex, Ph&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;PH•BH&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; avoids the problem of phosphine oxidation by protecting the phosphine from oxidation and is available through chemical vendors.&amp;lt;ref name = piotrowski/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
