title: Palladium(II)-catalyzed asymmetric hydrophosphination of enones: efficient access to chiral tertiary phosphines.
abstract: Chiral tertiary phosphines were synthesized by asymmetric hydrophosphination of aromatic enones catalyzed by an organopalladium complex with high yields and stereoselectivity. The procedure offers practical access to chiral tertiary phosphines.
