Phosphinines, the phosphorus analogues of pyridines, are the common basis of the present thesis work here. In the first part, the various synthetic routes for the synthesis of phosphinines their electronic properties and their application in transition metal catalysis are summarized. Bidentate, tridentate and tetradentate ligands could be generated by the nucleophilic attack of organolithium reagents on phosphinines with pending diphenylphosphine groups. The use of monoanionic pincer complex derived from diphenylphosphinomethane ( dppm) was studied with special emphasis on the activation of poorly reactive moieties such as C-H bonds and on the dehydrogenation of borane adducts. The third part of this work, describes the synthesis of 3,5-sub...
