P-chiral phosphorus heterocycles: a straightforward synthesis

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Jun 4;50(44):5826-8. doi: 10.1039/c4cc00318g.

Abstract

A straightforward synthesis of P-chiral polycyclic 7-phospha-norbornenes via an asymmetric Diels-Alder reaction is presented. The employed starting materials are cheap, easily accessible and of structural diversity facilitating a new flexible route towards differently functionalised P-chiral phosphanes.
