Macrocyclic tetraphosphine oxides are obtained by cyclisation of phenyl[2-(phenylphosphino)ethyl]phosphine copper(I) triflate with an alkyl or aryl bis-halide followed by demetallation with H2S. The procedure is effective even if the metal chelate features five and six-membered rings and is more readily applicable than multi-step non-template approaches. Phosphines are prepared by reduction with neat phenylsilane.
