title: Preparation and coordination properties including catalytic activities of a bulky 2-methyl-3-thioxo-1,3-diphosphapropene.
abstract: [reaction: see text] 2-Methyl-3,3-diphenyl-3-thioxo-1-(2,4,6-tri-tert-butylphenyl)-1,3-diphosphapropene, which bears a P=C-P=S skeleton, was prepared and used as a ligand of transition-metal complexes. The palladium complexes containing the ligated 3-thioxo-1,3-diphophapropene were stable and used for catalytic reactions such as cross-couplings and direct conversion of allyl alcohol to allylaniline.
