This journal isA series of P-chiral biaryl phosphonates were efficiently synthesized from diaryl 2-bromo arylphosphonates in high yields (up to 92%) and good enantioselectivities (up to 88% ee) through a palladium-catalyzed asymmetric cyclization with a novel P-chiral biaryl monophosphorus ligand. The P-chiral biaryl phosphonate can be rapidly transformed to both antipodes of a P-chiral dialkyl biaryl monophosphorus structure. The method provides a convenient access to various P-chiral biaryl monophosphines.
A series of novel chiral-bridged atropisomeric monophosphine ligands were synthesized via convenient and simple pathways. The prepared ligands, especially for ligand 7d, were found to be highly effective in the Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction. The steric hindrance and electronic effect of substrates on the reactivity and enantioselectivity were explored preliminarily.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
