The three-step synthesis of new, air-stable, PNN′O-tetradentate ligands 3a·HH–3c·HH by Schiff base condensation of the 1° amines 2a–2c with 2-Ph2PC6H4(CHO) in refluxing EtOH is described. The racemic ligand 3d·HH, isolated in 79% yield, was successfully prepared from 2-C6H4(OH){C(O)NHCH2CH(Me)NH2} 2d and 2-Ph2PC6H4(CHO) in absolute EtOH... cont'd.
