1,3-Bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (dppp) is an organophosphorus compound with the formula Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂. The compound is a white solid that is soluble in organic solvents. It is slightly air-sensitive, degrading in air to the phosphine oxide. It is classified as a diphosphine ligand in coordination chemistry and homogeneous catalysis.

The diphosphine can be prepared by the reaction of lithium diphenylphosphide and 1,3-dichloropropane (Ph = C₆H₅):

2 Ph₂PLi + Cl(CH₂)₃Cl → Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂ + 2 LiCl

However, it can be synthesised via a much more controllable (and cheaper) route, via metal-halogen exchange and then metathesis:

Br(CH₂)₃Br + 2 ^tBuLi → Li(CH₂)₃Li + 2 ^tBuBr

Li(CH₂)₃Li + 2 PCl₃ → Cl₂P(CH₂)₃PCl₂ + 2 LiCl

Cl₂P(CH₂)₃PCl₂ + 4 PhLi → Ph₂P(CH₂)₃PPh₂ + 4 LiCl

The diphosphine serves as a bidentate ligand forming six-membered C₃P₂M chelate ring with a natural bite angle of 91°.^[1] For example, the complex dichloro(1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane)nickel is prepared by combining equimolar portions of the ligand and nickel(II) chloride hexahydrate. This nickel complex serves as a catalyst for the Kumada coupling reaction.^[2] Dppp is also used as a ligand for palladium(II) catalysts to co-polymerize carbon monoxide and ethylene to give polyketones.^[3] Dppp can sometimes be used in palladium-catalyzed arylation under Heck reaction conditions to control regioselectivity.^[4]
