symmetrical ethers and/or N-substituted carboxylic amides. While with most phosphane ligands tested, the dominating product is always the ether, with the trimesitylene ligand the amides are the major products. The reaction conditions are much milder than those reported previously. Mechanistic control experiments with a chiral alcohol prove the intermediacy of carbenium ions, furtherstudies with not readily
