An acylphosphinylation reaction has been devised for the synthesis of β-aryl-γ-ketophosphine oxides, employing styrenes and acyl azolium salts through an irradiation-induced radical relay mechanism. This method effectively constructs C–C C–P bonds while demonstrating excellent functional group tolerance. Mechanistic studies revealed that a radical-addition–coupling–elimination cascade process was involved in this reaction.

Terminal zinc hydride cations [(Me2bpy)ZnH(L)][BArF4] (Me2bpy = 6,6'-dimethyl-2,2'-dipyridyl; ArF 3,5-(CF3)2C6H3; L THF, 1a; 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine, DMAP, 1b; pyridine, 1c; 4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine, 1d) show Zn-H distances in the expected range, as exemplified by single-crystal X-ray diffraction for THF adduct 1a and pyridine 1c. With exception of labile 1a, ν(ZnH) stretching frequencies correlate with electron donating character ligand. The bond shows amphoteric behavior. Reaction ZnEt2 gives cationic ethyl complex [(Me2bpy)ZnEt(thf)][BArF4] (2a), while it undergoes CO2 insertion to form formato [(Me2bpy)Zn(OCHO)(thf)][BArF4] (3a). Thermolysis 3a at 80 °C dinuclear metalation product 4a, which is also formed photolysis 1a. acts a proton donor when treated N-heterocyclic carbene ItBu (ItBu 1,3-di-tert-butylimidazol-2-ylidene), giving imidazolium salt [ItBuH][BArF4], metal, Me2bpy. deprotonation occurs ZnCp*2 (Cp* pentamethylcyclopentadienyl) give dizinc(I) cation [(Me2bpy)Zn-ZnCp*(thf)][BArF4] (6a) Cp*H. Cp2MoH2 (Cp η5-cyclopentadienyl) leads heterobimetallic [(Me2bpy)Zn(μ-H)MoCp2]+[BArF4]- (7) under H2 elimination.
