hetero-Diels-Alder reaction with electron-rich alkenes 4a-f or alkynes 9a-c under mild conditions, and phosphono-substituted pyrans 5a-d, 6e,f or pyranopyrans 11a-c were obtained in good to excellent yields. The reaction of 3 with cyclopentadiene and cyclohexadiene led to mixtures of [2 + 4] and [4 + 2] cycloadducts 7a, 8a and 7b, 8b in modest yields. The cycloaddition reaction between 3 and pyranopyran
