A Ni-catalyzed asymmetric C(sp)-P cross-coupling reaction for the synthesis of P-stereogenic alkynylphosphines.

ABSTRACT: Due to the high reactivity of the triple bond, P-stereogenic alkynylphosphines could be easily derivatized, serving as universal building blocks for structurally diverse phosphine compounds. However, the synthesis of alkynylphosphines via direct P-C bond formation was unprecedented. Here, we report an efficient method for the synthesis of P-stereogenic alkynylphosphines with high enantioselectivity via a Ni-catalyzed asymmetric cross-coupling reaction. The reaction could tolerate a variety of functional groups, affording products that can be converted into useful phosphine derivatives.
