Abstract
Primary and secondary phosphines add regio- and stereospecifically to phenylcyanoacetylene and 4-hydroxy-4-methylpent-2-ynenitrile under mild conditions to form corresponding functionalized secondary and tertiary phosphines of Z-configuration in 70–91% yield. According to ESR and UV data, the addition of primary phosphines to phenylcyanoacetylene involves a single electron transfer process.
