Enantioconvergent Reductive C(sp)−C(sp3) Cross‐Coupling to Access Chiral α‐Alkynyl Phosphonates Under Dual Nickel/Photoredox Catalysis

Transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric carbon-carbon bond formation to forge phosphonates with an α-chiral carbon center through C(sp³)−C(sp³) and C(sp²)−C(sp³) couplings has been successful. However, the enantioselective C(sp)−C(sp³) coupling has not yet been disclosed. Reported herein is an unprecedented enantioconvergent cross-coupling of alkynyl bromides and α-bromo phosphonates to deliver chiral α-alkynyl phosphonates.

Abstract

Transition-metal-catalyzed asymmetric carbon−carbon bond formation to forge phosphonates with an α-chiral carbon center through C(sp³)−C(sp³) and C(sp²)−C(sp³) couplings has been successful. However, the enantioselective C(sp)−C(sp³) coupling has not yet been disclosed. Reported herein is an unprecedented enantioconvergent cross-coupling of alkynyl bromides and α-bromo phosphonates to deliver chiral α-alkynyl phosphonates.
