Hydrophosphination of Propargylic Ethers with Diphenylphosphine in the Presence of LiHMDS,<i>N</i>-Heterocyclic Carbene, and Ti(NMe<sub>2</sub>)<sub>4</sub>
Regio- and stereoselective hydrophosphination of propargylic ethers with diphenylphosphine has been achieved using three-component catalyst, LiN(SiMe3)2/1,3-dimethylimidazol-2-ylidene/Ti(NMe2)4 (10 mol % of each).
