January 2022:
The University of Groningen in the Netherlands solved the problem of assymetric metal catalysed C-P bond formation by using an axially chiral 1,1'–bi–2–naphthol (BINOL)–based phosphoramidite (also known as Feringas ligand) and aryl halides or triflates as starting materials, according to a study published in Nature Catalysis. This accomplishment is due to the presence of BINOL, which exerts control over the production of a single isomer via a mechanism called axial-central chirality transfer. Additionally, this work is unusual in that it identifies a hitherto uncharacterized P-chiral phosphonium salt intermediate that can be seen via X-ray crystallography following the arylation phase. According to the authors, this novel phosphonium salt with chirality in the P-center has the potential to pave the way for new applications as a chiral phase transfer catalyst or as a starting material for a variety of additional P-chiral compounds.
