Assessment of the Activity of 8-Diphenylphosphino-8'-methoxy-1, 1'-binaphthyl as a Ligand for Palladium-Catalyzed Reactions

抄録

A monodentate phosphine, 8-diphenylphosphino-8'-methoxy-1, 1'-binaphthyl, was shown to be active as a ligand in palladium-catalyzed reactions, including the reduction of allylic carbonates with formic acid, hydrosilylation of a terminal olefin, and hydroboration of but-1-en-3-yne, even though it has a highly hindered lone pair.
