Palladium-catalyzed 1,4-addition of diarylphosphines to α,β-unsaturated N-acylpyrroles

Abstract

Highly stereoselective asymmetric 1,4-addition of diarylphosphines to α,β-unsaturated N-acylpyrroles catalyzed by a PCP pincer–Pd complex has been developed for the synthesis of chiral phosphines with excellent stereoselectivity (91–99% ee) under mild conditions. The products obtained can be further converted into chiral phosphine-oxazoline ligands.
