Abstract: | Bis-phosphanated compounds are regarded as the most ubiquitous privileged ligand structures in transition-metal catalysis. The development of highly atom economical reactions is of great importance for their syntheses because less atom economical methods often require complicated purification procedures under inert atmospheres to remove excess starting materials and byproducts. Herein, the photoinduced addition reactions of diphosphane monosulfides bearing PV(S)−PIII single bonds to alkenes is disclosed. These reactions require only equimolar amounts of the diphosphane monosulfide relative to the alkene and facilitate highly selective introduction of two different types of phosphorus-containing groups, such as thiophosphoryl and phosphanyl groups, into a variety of alkenes without any catalyst, base, or additive. |
