Abstract

Primed! Secondary phosphine oxides are able to tautomerize in situ to phosphinous acids and then coordinate to soft transition metals through the trivalent phosphorus atom (see scheme). The presence of a chiral backbone allows this reaction to run stereoselectively and be used for the generation of highly enantioselective homogeneous catalysts.
